We take the shares Ted Decker reports owning in their most recent SEC Form 4 and multiply by the latest share price. That gives a stake value you can check against the filing itself. Everything beyond that stake — real estate, private holdings, cash, past compensation — is estimated or simply not public, and we say so rather than roll it into one number.
Ted Decker was born in 1963 in Erie County, Pennsylvania, and did landscaping and lawn work as a kid. He studied English at the College of William and Mary and earned an MBA from Carnegie Mellon, then worked in banking and at paper companies before finding his home in retail.
He joined Home Depot in 2000 and spent more than two decades there, making his name in merchandising, the heart of a retailer’s business. He became president and chief operating officer, then chief executive in 2022, carrying forward the company’s focus on professional customers and its merchandising engine.
Decker is a hired executive with a long internal tenure. His Home Depot stake came from stock compensation, which is what this page reflects.

The stake value is filing-derived and verifiable; any broader “net worth” is an estimate. Share counts are the latest reported on SEC filings and change as the executive trades; the price is the last close, so the stake value moves with the market. This is not an official or complete accounting of anyone’s wealth. Educational only — not investment advice.
