Best Buy (NYSE: BBY) had poor December sales. That will not hurt its guidance, the company said.

It announced

The company is confirming its annual adjusted diluted EPS guidance in the range of $3.35 to $3.65 as previously disclosed in its press release dated December 13, 2011. This guidance includes the estimated impact from fiscal 2012 share repurchases and excludes the gain on the sale of investments and previously announced charges, which are comprised of the purchase of CPW’s share of the Best Buy Mobile profit share agreement, a non-cash impairment charge to reflect the write-down of Best Buy Europe goodwill, restructuring charges (primarily associated with U.K. big-box store closures) and other related charges.

December revenue was $8.4 billion, flat with the same month a year ago. Comparable store sales dropped by 1.2%
