GWW W.W. Grainger (GWW) Q2 FY25 earnings call
W.W. Grainger delivered solid Q2 FY25 results, with strong performance in its Endless Assortment segment driven by improved customer retention and operating leverage. However, the company's overall profitability was significantly impacted by LIFO inventory valuation headwinds and a softer MRO market, leading to a revised full-year outlook. Management remains confident in its strategy and ability to navigate the evolving environment, expecting gross margin recovery as pricing actions take hold in the back half of the year.
