What the filing says
Walmart reported Q2 FY27 revenue of $187.9B (+5.9%), operating income of $9.4B (+28.8%), and adjusted EPS of $0.81 (+19.1%). The company raised full-year FY27 guidance: net sales growth to 4.0–5.0% (vs. prior 3.5–4.5%), adjusted operating income growth to 7.0–8.5% (vs. prior 6.0–8.0%), and adjusted EPS to $2.80–$2.87 (vs. prior $2.75–$2.85). Walmart U.S. comp sales grew 2.6%, ecommerce globally up 23%, and advertising business up 38%. Tariff refunds benefited Q2 but management expects to redirect remaining refunds into price investments in H2.
Why this rating
Earnings beat and raised guidance is positive, but growth rates (4–5% sales, 7–8.5% op income) are moderate for $714B company. Tariff refund timing creates near-term volatility.
