Earnings Calendar and Analysis for This Week (March 3-7)

Calendar with numerous dates marked with pushpins.

Below is a weekly earnings calendar of the most important upcoming quarterly reports scheduled to be released by publicly traded companies. However, we have also provided expanded previews and recaps for select companies that are reporting earnings this week.

Please check back often. This earnings calendar is updated regularly.

(Editor's note: Earnings dates in tables are tentative. However, companies featured in "Earnings Spotlights" have officially announced their earnings dates.)


Earnings calendar highlights

Monday (3/3)

Tuesday (3/4)

Earnings recap: Target

Target (TGT) is one of the more noteworthy names on the earnings calendar. The discount retailer disclosed its fourth-quarter results ahead of Tuesday's open, reporting earnings of $2.41 per share, down 19.1% year over year (YoY). Revenue fell 3.1% to $30.9 billion, while comparable-store sales rose 1.5%.

Analysts expected earnings of $2.25 per share on revenue of $30.85 billion and same-store sales growth of 1.5%.

"Our team grew traffic and delivered better-than-expected sales and profitability in our biggest quarter of the year," said Brian Cornell, chair and CEO of Target, in a statement. But David Wagner, portfolio manager and equity analyst at Aptus Capital Advisors, says the retailer's "strength during the holidays was already known by the market after the management's update in mid-January."

More important to investors now, Wagner says, is "what margin levers Target has at its disposal given the dimmed sales outlook." Indeed, Target forecasted full-year net sales growth of around 1% on flat comparable sales, citing "ongoing" uncertainty surrounding consumer spending and the impact of tariffs.

Wednesday (3/5)

Thursday (3/6)

Earnings spotlight: Broadcom

Broadcom (AVGO) represents the tech sector on the earnings calendar when it unveils its fiscal first-quarter results after Thursday's close. Analysts expect the chipmaker to report earnings of $1.51 per share (+37.3% YoY) on revenue of $14.6 billion (+21.7% YoY).

Christopher Rolland, an analyst at Susquehanna International Group, anticipates an inline or slight beat to the print on continued artificial intelligence (AI) growth and optimization of the VMware portfolio.

"Demand checks remain positive as hyperscalers continue to increase AI investments (despite DeepSeek fears), with additional upside from the recently announced $500 billion Stargate Project," Rolland says, adding that Broadcom's ongoing efforts to shift VMware customers to a subscription-based model will remain a tailwind.

Earnings spotlight: Costco Wholesale

Wall Street is bullish on Costco Wholesale (COST) ahead of the warehouse club's fiscal second-quarter earnings report, due after Thursday's close. Of the 39 analysts following the retail stock tracked by S&P Global Market Intelligence, 18 say it's a Strong Buy, seven have it at Buy, 13 call it a Hold and one has it at Strong Sell. This works out to a consensus Buy recommendation.

Oppenheimer analyst Rupesh Parikh is one of those with an Outperform (Buy) rating on Costco. "[W]e continue to see COST's superior merchandising prowess and value proposition on display in stores and remain bullish on management's ability to sustain comparable-store-sales momentum and drive share gains for the foreseeable future," Parikh wrote in a February 5 note, adding that it remains a top stock pick.

As for Costco's fiscal second-quarter results, analysts are calling for earnings of $4.10 per share (+4.6% YoY) on revenue of $68.3 billion (+7.8% YoY).
