- Walmart U.S. comp sales of 3.4% marks the best Q1 comp in 9 years and is the fourth consecutive quarter above 3%. Operating income was better than expected, up 5.5%.
- Walmart U.S. eCommerce sales growth of 37% reflects strong growth in online grocery, as well as the Home and Fashion categories on Walmart.com.
