Target (TGT) Raises Full-Year Guidance as Turnaround Efforts Take Hold

What happened

Target raised its full-year financial outlook, citing progress in its ongoing recovery strategy. The retailer pointed to improving operational execution and stabilizing consumer demand as drivers behind the upgraded forecast. The guidance revision marks a positive inflection from prior cautious projections. Management attributed the improved trajectory to targeted cost discipline and category-level merchandising adjustments made over recent quarters.
