Walgreens results were mixed as earnings showed gains, as well as categories where the company continues to struggle.

The latest ecommerce earnings results are out from retailers in Digital Commerce 360’s Top 2000 Database. Walgreens Boots Alliance sales grew 7.2% year over year, even though struggles in some categories weighed on its comparable retail sales. In the meantime, Nike reported a 12.0% revenue decline from a year earlier. All of this was announced in a week when FedEx revenue for its most recent quarter was revealed to have risen 1%.

Parentheses indicate the merchant’s ranking in the Top 2000, unless otherwise noted. The database ranks North America’s largest ecommerce retailers by their annual web sales.

La-Z-Boy, Inc. (No. 251)

Q4 2025: La-Z-Boy, Inc. reported its consolidated delivered sales increased 3.1% year over year to $570.9 million in its fiscal Q4 ended April 26. Melinda Whittington, president, CEO and chairman at La-Z-Boy, cited continuing challenges in the macroeconomic environment for the home furnishings retailer. Specifically, she mentioned “challenges in the housing market with stubbornly high mortgage rates and increased volatility in the global economy negatively influenced consumer sentiment.”

Meanwhile, La-Z-Boy’s digitally driven Joybird business took a hit as the company reported delivered sales for the unit decreased 2% year over year to $36 million.

“On our Joybird business, written sales trends decreased 21% in the quarter versus a year ago,” Whittington told investors during a June 18 earnings call. “As a digitally native brand, we believe the Joybird consumer has been more significantly impacted by rising macro uncertainty.”

Whittington sees that pressure as “likely to persist in the near term amid ongoing macroeconomic volatility.” Nevertheless, she stated that La-Z-Boy is seeing “relatively stronger written trends” for Joybird in physical stores.

In addition, Whittington addressed La-Z-Boy’s perspective on tariffs during the call. She noted that La-Z-Boy has already aligned its supply chain to preference North America and Mexico.

“Approximately 90% of our upholstered units sold in North America are produced in the United States with our Mexican operations supporting most of the balance,” she stated. “In addition, our Mexican-based cut-and-sew operations support more than 2/3 of this North American upholstered unit production, transforming raw cover sourced from multiple countries around the globe. The vast majority of the products produced and exported out of Mexico are USMCA-compliant and, therefore, not subject to tariffs under current tariff policies.”

Target Corporation (No. 5)

Q1 2025: Target Corporation said net sales declined 2.8% year over year to $23.8 billion in its fiscal first quarter ended May 3. Despite the overall drop, Q1 online sales were up 4.7% year over year from a year earlier.
