Tractor Supply Company (TSCO), headquartered in Brentwood, Tennessee, operates as a rural lifestyle retailer. Valued at $29 billion by market cap, the company provides farm maintenance, animal, general maintenance, lawn and garden, light truck equipment, work clothing, and other products. The largest rural lifestyle retailer is expected to announce its fiscal second-quarter earnings for 2025 before the market opens on Thursday, Jul. 24.
Ahead of the event, analysts expect TSCO to report a profit of $0.80 per share on a diluted basis, up 1.3% from $0.79 per share in the year-ago quarter. The company beat or matched the consensus estimates in two of the last four quarters while missing the forecast on two other occasions.
For the full year, analysts expect TSCO to report EPS of $2.09, up 2.5% from $2.04 in fiscal 2024. Its EPS is expected to rise 11% year over year to $2.32 in fiscal 2026.

TSCO stock has underperformed the S&P 500 Index’s ($SPX) 13.4% gains over the past 52 weeks, with shares up 4.4% during this period. Similarly, it underperformed the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR Fund’s (XLY) 17.8% gains over the same time frame.

TSCO's underperformance stems from cautious consumer spending, pricing pressure, tariff uncertainty, and increased costs from tariffs and investments, reflecting broader retail challenges amid economic volatility.
On Apr. 24, TSCO shares closed down more than 3% after reporting its Q1 results. Its EPS of $0.34 fell short of Wall Street expectations of $0.37. The company’s revenue was $3.5 billion, missing Wall Street forecasts of $3.6 billion. TSCO expects full-year EPS to be $2 to $2.18.
