10-K for the fiscal year ended Feb 1, 2025
Filed Mar 19, 2025 · Read the filing on EDGAR
- Revenue fell 4.4% to $41.5 billion, partly because last year had an extra week; comparable sales fell 2.3%, a smaller drop than last year's 6.8%.
- Operating income fell about 20% to $1.26 billion and net earnings fell 25% to $927 million, driven mainly by a $475 million Best Buy Health goodwill write-down.
- Tariffs are a major new uncertainty, with about 55% of purchased products coming from China and 20% from Mexico.
- Fiscal 2026 plans include a U.S. third-party Marketplace, expanded Best Buy Ads, AI-powered search and about 5 to 10 store closures.
Business momentum
Weakening
“In fiscal 2025, we continued to manage our profitability through strong execution despite revenue declines.”
Outlook
Cautious
“We enter fiscal 2026 facing significant uncertainty regarding the scope, timing and magnitude of tariffs we may experience for the products we sell and the consequent financial impact on our business.”
Financial stress
Low
“There were no borrowings outstanding under the Five-Year Facility Agreement as of February 1, 2025, or February 3, 2024.”
Tone against the previous report
More negative
Red flags
- Medium
Large write-down
“In fiscal 2025, we recorded a goodwill impairment of $475 million for the Best Buy Health reporting unit.”
Positives
Operating cash flow rose to $2.1 billion from $1.5 billion, helped by inventory timing
“Cash provided by operating activities increased in fiscal 2025, primarily driven by the timing and volume of inventory purchases and payments, partially offset by the timing of vendor funding receivables.”
U.S. gross margin improved, helped by services and memberships
“Domestic segment gross profit rate increased in fiscal 2025, primarily due to improved financial performance from our services category, including our membership offerings”
Computing, tablets and services returned to or continued growth
“we grew comparable sales in our computing, tablet and services categories.”
Concerns
Demand stayed soft across consumer electronics
“Our comparable sales declined 2.3% in fiscal 2025, as we continued to operate in a challenged consumer electronics industry and experienced softer consumer demand.”
Appliances and gaming sales fell sharply in the U.S.
“The 14.8% comparable sales decline was driven primarily by large appliances.”
The health business has grown more slowly than Best Buy forecast
“The impairment primarily arose from downward revisions of our revenue growth rates and margin rates compared to projections used in prior years, as the market has not scaled as we originally forecasted.”
New risks since the previous report
Tariffs on goods from China and Mexico could raise costs and disrupt supply
“our complex supply chain is heavily reliant on vendor imports from China and Mexico, which we currently estimate make up approximately 55% and 20%, respectively, of the products we purchase.”
Best Buy Health could need further goodwill write-downs
“Changes in any of these factors could lead to further lowering our expectations, which could result in further goodwill impairment.”
The new U.S. Marketplace adds product quality, reputation and legal risks
“Our expanding third-party Marketplace, including our existing Canadian platform and our soon-to-launch U.S. platform, could present additional risks.”
Biggest risks named
- Tariffs and trade policy affecting imports from China and Mexico
- Weak consumer spending from economic pressures
- Strong competition from online, store and AI-enabled rivals
- Reliance on a few key vendors and mobile carriers
- Cyberattacks and data breaches, heightened by AI

How these scores work
An AI model reads the management discussion, risk factors and legal sections of each report and records what they say, quoting the filing word for word. Fixed rules then turn those findings into a score from 0 to 100, where 60 means nothing notable either way. A score describes the report, not whether the stock is a good investment, and the AI may know how things turned out later, which can colour older scores. Read the methodology
