Walmart stock falls after earnings miss forecasts as US sales, 2025 outlook rise
Walmart (WMT) stock fell more than 2% early Thursday after the company reported second quarter earnings shy of expectations while US sales growth topped forecasts with the big box retailer's low-price strategy drawing consumers as tariff-related uncertainty pushed them to more carefully scrutinize their household budgets. In the second quarter, total US same-store sales grew 4.6%. That's more than the 4.2% Wall Street predicted, per Bloomberg consensus estimates. Its wholesale subscription business, Sam's Club, saw the same metric grow 5.9%, the Street had forecast a 5.3% increase. The company now expects net sales in its fiscal 2026 to increase between 3.75%-4.75%, up from a prior range of 3%-4% growth that the company reiterated in the prior quarter. Walmart stock came under pressure after the results showed the company reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.68, below the $0.74 the Street had forecast. Revenue came in at $177.40 billion, better than the $176.05 billion Wall Street expected. Adjusted earnings per share are expected to come in between $0.58-$0.60 in the current quarter. "The top-line momentum we have in our business comes from how we're innovating and executing. Connecting with our customers and members through digital experiences is helping to drive our business, and the way we're deploying AI will make these experiences even better," CEO Doug McMillon said in the release. Walmart called out strength in its grocery and health & wellness categories driving its US sales growth. The company it saw share gains "across income brackets led by upper-income households" in its US stores. By category, the company saw grocery sales rise by mid-single digits in the US stores while health & wellness categories saw sales rise by a mid-teens percentage. Investors will look for further insights around tariffs on the call after the company said it would have to raise prices earlier this year. In the quarter, Walmart said "like for like" inflation was 1.1% in its US stores.

He added that tariffs had already led to price increases in April and May. At the time, McMillon said the "reset of costs" would continue throughout the year, adding that for an imported item, "You pay the tariff at the time it comes through customs ... even if the tariff rate comes down later, the cost has been elevated." Robert Ohmes of Bank of America estimated Walmart imports roughly 15% of its US sales from China. Around 60% of the US sales are groceries, which are largely tariff-exempt if they're produced domestically or in Mexico and Canada. Brooke DiPalma is a senior reporter for Yahoo Finance.
