Tractor Supply’s first quarter 2025 performance was shaped by delayed spring weather and persistent pressure in big-ticket seasonal categories. Management pointed to robust customer transactions and growth in consumable, usable, and edible categories, but noted that adverse weather conditions, especially in southern markets, held back overall sales. CEO Hal Lawton described the quarter as “softer than expected,” citing the three-week delay in spring’s arrival as a major headwind, with strong winter goods offset by weaker demand for spring merchandise.
