Walmex stock was trading at EUR 2.35 at Lang & Schwarz on October 8, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. CEST, up 1.29 percent versus the prior close of EUR 2.32. On September 16, 2026, Walmex cut its 2026 constant-currency sales growth guidance to 3.50 percent-4.50 percent, according to El Fondo.

Recent results show slower growth

In the second quarter of 2026, consolidated revenue reached MXN 250.95 billion, up 1.90 percent year over year, while net income fell 0.70 percent to MXN 11.15 billion, according to El Fondo. The same quarter produced adjusted constant-currency revenue growth of 3.20 percent, showing that reported growth was restrained by currency effects.

Three results dates frame the story

On February 18, 2026, Walmex reported fiscal fourth-quarter 2025 revenue of MXN 282.85 billion, according to MarketScreener. On April 28, 2026, first-quarter 2026 revenue was MXN 245.02 billion, and on July 22, 2026, second-quarter revenue reached MXN 250.95 billion, with both reporting dates listed by MarketScreener. The sequence points to a business still expanding, but at a slower pace than the company had planned for 2026.

What the guidance cut changes

The reduced sales range places execution and margin discipline at the center of the next report. In the second quarter, EBITDA reached MXN 23.64 billion, up 0.60 percent year over year, while its margin declined 10 basis points to 9.40 percent, according to El Fondo. That combination makes sales momentum and profitability the key figures for the October results.

Analyst targets remain wide

Analyst expectations still span MXN 42.00 to MXN 63.00, while Barclays cut its target from MXN 66.00 to MXN 63.00 and HSBC assigned a Reduce rating with a MXN 42.00 target, according to Yahoo Finance. The spread highlights the market's disagreement over how quickly Mexican consumer demand can recover.

Next dates and market position

Walmex is scheduled to report third-quarter 2026 results on October 27, 2026, according to Walmex. The next listed dividend ex-dates are November 17, 2026 and December 8, 2026, according to MarketScreener.
