Reports Q3 revenue $3.47B, consensus $3.49B. “We delivered on our expectations for the third quarter amid a tepid retail sales environment while advancing our Life Out Here strategy. The fundamentals of our business remain strong with ongoing market share gains. With nearly 50% of our stores in Project Fusion layout and more than 550 garden centers, we continue to invest in our stores, supply chain and capabilities that build customer loyalty and elevate the standard for our sector. My thanks and appreciation go out to the entire Tractor Supply (TSCO) team for their engagement and commitment to serving Life Out Here, especially during this challenging hurricane season,” said Hal Lawton, President and Chief Executive Officer of Tractor Supply. “We remain very excited about the future for Tractor Supply to better serve our customers, capture market share, generate consistent, profitable growth and create ongoing long-term value for our shareholders. Today’s announcement of our acquisition of Allivet, a leading online pet pharmacy, is a great example of unlocking new opportunities for growth. We look forward to bringing pet Rx to our 37 million Neighbor’s Club members. As we look towards the back half of the decade, the team is energized to continue to capitalize on the many significant opportunities within our Life Out Here strategy and we look forward to sharing more details in the coming months.”
