Walmart delivered 7.3% reported revenue growth (5.7% constant currency) in FY2027-Q1, exceeding the top end of guidance by 120 basis points, with transaction growth the strongest in six quarters and eCommerce up 26% globally. Higher-margin businesses continued to scale with advertising up 37%, membership fees up 17%, and U.S. marketplace sales growing nearly 50%, collectively representing about one-third of operating income. Operating income growth of approximately 5% was tempered by $175 million in higher-than-planned fuel costs across distribution and fulfillment operations. Management reiterated full-year guidance of 3.5-4.5% constant currency sales growth and 6-8% operating income growth, expecting profitability to accelerate in Q2 and the second half.
