Walmart reaffirms Q1 sales outlook, flags wider operating income range due to tariffs

Walmart Inc.

Reaffirms Q1 sales growth in line with 3-4% outlook; FY2026 annual sales and operating income guidance unchanged.
Q1 operating income growth range widened due to less favorable category mix, higher casualty claims, and tariff-related price investments.
Two-year progress since April 2023: annual top-line growth >5%, adjusted operating income growth ~10%, eCommerce sales >20%/yr.
Global advertising reached $4.4B; VIZIO acquisition closed Dec 2024; PhonePe began IPO preparatory steps.
Over $7B returned via share repurchases; dividend raised by largest amount in over a decade.
