Gross margin expanded 440 bps to 40.4% due to $72.8M tariff refund benefit (net of $72.2M third-party payment and $5.8M reinvestment). The company affirmed full-year sales guidance of $6,230M–$6,355M (3.0–5.0% growth) and raised EPS guidance: GAAP EPS to $6.05–$6.45 (from $5.95–$6.35) and adjusted EPS to $6.50–$6.90 (from $6.40–$6.80).

Why this rating
Guidance raise is meaningful but modest; tariff benefit masks soft comp sales (-0.4%). Moderate for $3.2B company.
