OA: D
Things to keep in mind:

1. Reporting has already been done - past tense for reporting
2. Best Buy Co. is doing the reporting. - correct modifier. We need to tell correctly who did the reporting

Option A can be eliminated based on the 2nd point.
Option B uses a present continuous tense for reporting. Hence incorrect
Option C merges two parts of the sentence without using any conjunction
Option E uses a present continuous tense for reporting. Hence incorrect

Correct Option: D
Although there are issues with this option too, but this is the best of the lot.
