Revenue growth meets a tougher guide

Walmart's fiscal second quarter of 2027 ended July 31, 2026, with revenue up 5.9 percent from the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EPS of USD 0.81 exceeded the USD 0.74 consensus by USD 0.07, while the year-earlier EPS figure was USD 0.68, InsiderTrades.com reported.

Management set fiscal third-quarter 2027 adjusted EPS guidance at USD 0.620-0.640 and full-year fiscal 2027 guidance at USD 2.800-2.870. The range puts the next quarter below the USD 0.74 consensus that Walmart exceeded in Q2, making the November report a direct test of the reset.

Inflation puts margins on trial

Bank of America analyst Chris Nardone said on October 1, 2026, that higher oil and diesel costs were pushing up commodity pressure and could require selective price increases at Walmart, as Yahoo Finance reported. The same account described the consumer backdrop as stable after back-to-school results, leaving price investment and margin protection in tension.

Investing.com lists November 19, 2026 as Walmart's next earnings date, when the company is expected to provide the next comparison with its USD 0.620-0.640 adjusted EPS guidance.
