Home Depot Inc. reported fourth-quarter sales that missed expectations, and provided a downbeat outlook, citing persistent inflation, continued supply chain disruptions and a tight labor market.

Sales rose 0.3% to $35.83 billion but were below the FactSet consensus of $35.97 billion, as same-stores sales declined 0.3% versus expectations of a 0.3% increase. Dow Jones & Co. owns Factiva.
