No insider purchase over the last 90 days. The latest was filed 29 Nov 2024.
Walmart Inc. is a Retail & Commerce company. Its directors and officers file their transactions with SEC (Form 4). Over the twelve months to 18 October 2026, the company's managers filed 176 filings, from 37 insiders.
All open-market trades in the period are sales: 49 sales worth €577.0M, by 10 insiders, with no purchase on record. The totals exclude 2 filings filed without an amount. The largest single trade was a sale of €270.1M by Walton Family Holdings Trust, published on 25 November 2025.
Between a trade and the moment it shows up on SEC (Form 4), the median delay is 2 days. Section 16 rules allow two business days to file each Form 4. A sale on its own says little: insiders also sell to pay tax, fund a purchase or diversify.
For context, the typical company on the same exchange (median of 5,458 companies) published 22 filings over the same period, against 176 filings here. Looking back to 2016, when coverage begins, insiders filed 2 purchases and 275 sales. The 10-K for the year ended 31 January 2026 shows 713.16 bn USD of revenue and 21.89 bn USD of net income and a dividend of 0.94 USD per share.

Walmart Inc. is one of the world’s largest food and general merchandise retailers. It is listed on the NYSE under ticker WMT and is headquartered in Bentonville, Arkansas, in the United States. The company traces its roots back to 1945, when Sam M. Walton opened a Ben Franklin variety store in Newport, Arkansas; Walmart later shifted into discount retail in 1962 and completed its IPO in 1970. Over time, the group evolved from a classic brick-and-mortar discounter into a technology-enabled omnichannel platform.
Walmart operates through three reportable segments: Walmart U.S., Walmart International, and Sam’s Club U.S. Walmart U.S. is the largest business and combines a broad store network with eCommerce, pickup and delivery services, and a wide assortment spanning grocery, consumables, apparel, home, electronics, health and wellness, and other everyday essentials. Walmart International provides exposure to markets such as Canada, Mexico, Central America, Chile, South Africa, China, and India, while Sam’s Club U.S. offers a membership-based warehouse club format. Across the enterprise, Walmart has been expanding adjacent revenue streams, including marketplace services, fulfillment, advertising, and financial services.
From a competitive standpoint, Walmart’s key advantages are scale, purchasing power, logistics, and convenience. The company has built a dense store footprint that supports same-day and next-day fulfillment, making stores an asset rather than just a sales channel. Management continues to describe the business as people-led and technology-powered, with investments in automation, artificial intelligence, supply-chain modernization, and digital commerce intended to improve service levels and profitability. That strategy matters in an industry where price leadership, supply-chain execution, and omnichannel convenience are critical differentiators.
Recent developments reinforce that transformation. In its fiscal 2025 annual report, Walmart reported total revenues of $681.0 billion for the year ended January 31, 2025. In the same earnings cycle, the company raised its quarterly dividend by 13%, its largest increase in more than a decade. During 2025, Walmart also highlighted continued growth in eCommerce, advertising, and pharmacy services, including broader same-day prescription delivery and the expansion of pharmacy central-fill capabilities. The company has also discussed new AI-driven shopping experiences and more sophisticated marketplace tools. In November 2025, Walmart announced that John Furner will succeed Doug McMillon as CEO effective February 1, 2026.
For international equity investors, Walmart remains a defensive mega-cap consumer name with strong U.S. exposure, structural pricing power, and an ongoing mix shift toward higher-margin digital and service-based revenue streams. The main watchpoints are margin pressure, consumer spending trends, and execution risk in its large-scale digital transformation.
