Tractor Supply income falls; cuts 2025 earnings outlook amid ‘uncertainty’
Tractor Supply has set a long-term target of 3,000 stores.As of March 29, 2025, the company operated 2,311 Tractor Supply stores in 49 states and 206 Petsense by Tractor Supply stores in 23 states.

Tractor Supply Company reported disappointing first-quarter results and slashed its 2025 profit projections.

“Since issuing our initial 2025 outlook, there has been a notable increase in uncertainty, in particular the introduction of new tariffs,” said Tractor Supply president and CEO Hal Lawton. “In response, we are updating the range of our full-year outlook and providing guidance for the second quarter.”

The nation’s largest rural lifestyle retailer reported that its net income decreased 9.5% to $179.4 million for the quarter ended March 29. Earnings per share decreased 8.0% to $0.34, missing analysts estimates of $0.37 per share.

Net sales increased 2.1% to $3.47 billion, below estimates of $3.53 billion. The increase was driven by new store openings and the contribution from Allivet, partially offset by a decrease in comparable store sales. Same-store sales decreased 0.9%. (In December 2024, Tractor Supply completed its acquisition of Allivet, a privately-held online pet pharmacy.)
