Lowe's launches $99 HomeCare+ subscription and affirms $1.20 dividend

Lowe's has declared a quarterly dividend of $1.20 per share, payable on 6 May 2026 to shareholders of record as of 22 April 2026. The company also launched HomeCare+, a $99-per-year home maintenance subscription for MyLowe's Rewards members, marking a push into recurring service revenue. The subscription service aims to deepen customer engagement beyond traditional retail sales and strengthen Lowe's omnichannel capabilities. However, the initiative faces headwinds from potential labour shortages and rising costs that could impact margins. Simply Wall St community members currently value Lowe's between $248.91 and $286.48, with the company's narrative projecting $94 billion revenue and $8.4 billion earnings by 2028. This outlook requires 4% annual revenue growth against a backdrop of subdued home improvement market conditions.

Home Depot and Lowe's deploy AI to serve contractors and DIY customers

Home Depot and Lowe's are both deploying AI in their operations, but with different strategic focuses reflecting their customer bases. Home Depot, positioning itself towards contractors, partnered with Google to develop Magic Apron, an assistant providing project advice and product information. Its Pro Xtra loyalty programme uses AI to generate project requirements and product lists for professional contractors. Lowe's, targeting DIY customers, partnered with OpenAI to create Mylow, a digital assistant training employees and helping customers through an AI-powered virtual adviser. The company has also deployed AI agents in stores to handle basic questions, freeing employees for customer interaction. Neither company highlighted AI impacts in recent earnings reports, though both discussed the technology's applications during earnings calls. Home Depot emphasised contractor benefits whilst Lowe's focused on employee efficiency improvements.
