For the 2024 fiscal year, the company reported revenue of over $83 billion and employed approximately 300,000 people.

Based on its litigation history, Lowe's is an operating company that defends itself against patent infringement lawsuits. The company has no record as a plaintiff in the tracked cases but has been named as a defendant twice. Both lawsuits were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, a venue known for patent litigation.

The two tracked cases against Lowe's were filed on October 14, 2025, by Alpha Modus, Corp. The plaintiff, a subsidiary of Alpha Modus Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMOD), alleges that Lowe's in-store computer vision and media platforms infringe on six patents related to AI-driven retail technologies, inventory management, and customer assistance. Alpha Modus has filed numerous patent infringement lawsuits against other major retailers, including H&M and Circle K, asserting patents covering technologies like real-time shopper analytics, personalized marketing, and intelligent inventory systems.
