Bull Rankings scores HD 51 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a middling reading. That is driven by FCF (A-). A score is a quantitative screen of The Home Depot, Inc.'s fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.
Why does HD score 51 on Bull Rankings?
The quality-growth score blends three pillars — quality (returns on capital, margins, leverage, earnings quality), growth (revenue and earnings expansion), and value (valuation versus sector peers). HD earns its highest marks on FCF (A-), and is held back by D/E (D). Each pillar is graded against sector-aware thresholds, then combined into the single 0–100 score.
Is HD overvalued or undervalued?
Based on $349.46, HD sits about 40% above our discounted-cash-flow fair value — the current price implies roughly 14% annual free-cash-flow growth over the next decade. It trades at a 24.8x× P/E (graded C+). Discounted-cash-flow estimates are sensitive to growth and discount-rate assumptions, so treat this as a cross-check, not a price target.
What are the main risks of investing in HD?
D/E 4.59 is elevated — limits strategic flexibility and raises refinancing exposure if rates stay higher for longer.
