Hold Rating for Best Buy Co Amid Strong Q2 Performance and Future Margin PressuresWe continue to see a relatively balanced risk/reward on BBY, but lean more positive if top-line tailwinds develop and margin impact from tariffs is better than feared. Print/Call — (1) Gaming Was the Driver for Comp Outperformance: Comp SSS came in at +1.6%, representing the highest comp SSS number for BBY in 3 years, primarily from strength in entertainment (namely, gaming from the Nintendo Switch 2 launch) as well as continued sales growth in computing, mobile phones, wearables, and headphones. (2) QTD and 3Q Comp SSS Decel: Mgmt. indicated that comp SSS are running +LSD% relative to +3.0% comp SSS in June and July. 3Q comp SSS guide of “in-line with 2Q comp levels” allows for a modest decel on a 2-year basis.
