For Best Buy "Fiscal '24' is February 2023 to January 2024

Fiscal '25 is February 2024 to January 2025.

It's dumb, I know.

as a retailer, might make a lot of sense not trying to close the books every year within a week of Christmas?; OR to prevent all the accountants from working overtime in that period?

my company's FY is June-May

It's definitely not for over time LMAO. Corporate ain't give a shit bout that.

It's so that they can close with the Christmas rush.
