Lowe's Companies reported second-quarter 2026 sales of approximately $26.0 billion on August 19, 2026, falling short of the $26.25 billion revenue threshold this question asked about, even as total sales grew 8.3% year over year from $24.0 billion. Comparable sales increased just 0.2%, with a volatile month-to-month pattern that saw May down 0.4%, June up 1.7% and July down 1.2%, reflecting continued softness in do-it-yourself home-improvement spending. Growth was concentrated in Lowe's Pro contractor business, home services and online sales, which rose 15.7%, but those gains were not enough to push total sales above the revenue bar this question set. The company reaffirmed full-year 2026 guidance of roughly $92 billion in sales and about flat comparable sales, signaling it does not expect a sharp acceleration in DIY demand for the remainder of the year. The report, released alongside an earnings-per-share beat, underscored a split picture at Lowe's in 2026: profitability holding up even as top-line growth trailed Wall Street's more optimistic revenue targets. Predict Six's community leaned toward no with 33% predicting yes on three votes, correctly anticipating that revenue would fall short of $26.25 billion.
