Item 2.02. | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. is furnishing this Current Report on Form 8-K in order to furnish to the Securities and Exchange Commission a press release (the Press Release) that we will issue on August 16, 2011. The Press Release will disclose information regarding our results of operations for the three month and six month periods ended July 31, 2011 and our financial condition as of July 31, 2011.
The Press Release provides information regarding certain financial measures that may be considered non-GAAP financial measures (each, a Non-GAAP Measure) under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Among those Non-GAAP Measures are:
| Financial measures presented on a constant currency basis (each, a Constant Currency Measure). Constant Currency Measures are calculated by translating the results of our Walmart International operating segment (Walmart International) for a fiscal period in the local currencies in which Walmart International operates into U.S. dollars using the currency exchange rates used to translate the similar results of Walmart International for the prior year comparable period into U.S. dollars to report those prior period results in our consolidated financial statements. |
| Our total U.S. comparable store sales and the comparable club sales of our Sams Clubs operating segment (Sams Club) for the thirteen-week and twenty-six week periods ended July 29, 2011 and July 30, 2010 calculated excluding the fuel sales of Sams Club for such periods. |
| The net sales of Sams Club for the three months ended July 31, 2011, excluding the fuel sales of Sams Club for that three month period, and the percentage increase in the net sales and operating income of Sams Club for the three months ended July 31, 2011 over the net sales and operating income, respectively, of Sams Club for the three-months ended July 31, 2010, with such net sales and operating income calculated excluding the fuel sales of Sams Club for such periods. |
The Press Release provides information that reconciles each of these Non-GAAP Measures to the most directly comparable GAAP Measures.
Our management believes that presentation of the Non-GAAP Measures discussed above provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations as to the periods for which they are presented for the following reasons:
| We are required to translate Walmart Internationals operating results as stated in local currencies into U.S. dollars to report our results of operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as in effect in the United States. Period over period comparisons of our operating results can be affected by the differences between currency exchange rates in the prior fiscal period to which the comparison is made and the currency exchange rates in the current fiscal period as reflected in our operating results reported in U.S. dollars, making an investors assessment of the underlying performance of Walmart International and its effect on total company underlying performance for the current fiscal period more difficult. The presentation of the Constant Currency Measures permits investors to understand important aspects of Walmart Internationals underlying performance in the current fiscal period without the effect of any period to period fluctuations in applicable currency exchange rates and how that performance would have affected our results of operations in the current fiscal period and in period over period comparisons had currency exchange rates remained constant since the comparable prior year period. |
| The presentation of our total U.S. comparable store sales, Sams Clubs comparable club sales, the net sales of Sams Club and the period over period percentage increase in the net sales and operating income of Sams Club, calculated, in each case, excluding the fuel sales of Sams Club, permits investors to understand the effect of such fuel sales, which are affected by the volatility of fuel prices, on our total U.S. comparable store sales, on Sams Clubs comparable club sales and on Sams Clubs net sales and operating income for the periods presented. |

| The company issued its third quarter EPS guidance range of $0.95 to $1.00 and raised its full year EPS guidance range to $4.41 to $4.51. |

| During the second quarter, the company returned $2.7 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. |
BENTONVILLE, Ark., Aug. 16, 2011 Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (NYSE: WMT) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended July 31, 2011. Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal year 2012 were $108.6 billion, an increase of 5.5 percent from $103.0 billion in last years second quarter. Net sales for the quarter included a currency exchange rate benefit of $2.3 billion.
Income from continuing operations attributable to Walmart for the quarter was $3.8 billion, up 5.7 percent from last year. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to Walmart (EPS) for the second quarter of fiscal year 2012 were $1.09. In comparison, last years EPS was $0.97.
Income from continuing operations included certain pre-tax items in the second quarter, which are described below.
| Approximately $49 million from a mark-to-market loss on certain foreign currency derivative positions related to the Massmart acquisition. |
| Approximately $36 million from acquisition related costs for Netto and Massmart. |
| Approximately $30 million in expenses related to storm damage from tornados and floods in U.S. operations. |
These items totaled approximately $115 million and are included within operating expenses.
| Approximately $17 million impact to gross margin for a noncash inventory accounting re-valuation charge at Walmart Mexico as the new SAP system was implemented in the second quarter. |
In summary, the combination of the expense and gross margin items totaled $132 million and accounted for approximately a $0.03 impact to the companys EPS for the quarter. In addition, the company benefited from an effective tax rate for the second quarter of 32.2 percent, compared to 34.3 percent last year.
EPS rises 12.4 percent over last year
We are reporting today $1.09 in earnings per share from continuing operations, a 12.4 percent increase over last years second quarter, said Mike Duke, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. president and chief executive officer. Our EPS is near the top of our guidance.
Im encouraged by the sales improvement in our Walmart U.S. stores. Comp sales have increased sequentially month to month within the quarter. In fact, this was the best quarterly performance since the third quarter of fiscal 2010, Duke continued. Were committed to deliver positive comp sales by widening the gap on price, and we have a specific plan to deliver EDLP to every customer.
Walmart International reported second quarter net sales growth of more than 16 percent over last year to $30 billion, Duke said. Im pleased that weve made so much progress on integrating the acquisitions of the Netto stores in the U.K. and Massmart in sub-Saharan Africa. We look forward to the many opportunities we have in Africa to create jobs and help customers save money and live better.
Duke also recognized the hard work of the Sams Club team for strong comparable sales performance and expense management.
This is the sixth straight quarter of comp improvement for Sams, a testament to the teams execution to drive quality, value and savings for members, he said. Im also pleased with the momentum in membership renewals and upgrades.
Committed to full year expense leverage
The company grew sales and operating expenses at the same rate, 5.5 percent.
We remain committed to driving the productivity loop throughout the organization and we are committed to leverage operating expenses for the full year, said Charles Holley, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. executive vice president and chief financial officer. Without the items affecting operating expenses, the company leveraged expenses for the second quarter.
2
We continue to deliver strong returns to our shareholders, said Holley. We returned $2.7 billion to our shareholders during the second quarter through dividends and share repurchases, bringing our total return to shareholders during the first half of this year to $6.1 billion.
During the second quarter, the company repurchased $1.4 billion of shares, representing approximately 26.1 million shares. In addition, the company paid $1.3 billion in dividends.
At the end of the second quarter, Walmart had positive free cash flow of $4.0 billion1, compared to $4.5 billion1 in the prior year. Return on investment (ROI) for the trailing 12 months ended July 31, 2011 was 18.4 percent1, compared to 19.0 percent1 for the prior year. ROI was negatively impacted by the acquisitions and currency exchange translations.
Company raises full year EPS guidance
Based on our views of the economic and sales environment in the United States and around the world, we expect third quarter fiscal 2012 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to Walmart to range between $0.95 and $1.00. Last year, we reported EPS of $0.95 for the third quarter, which included a tax benefit of approximately $0.05 per share, Holley said.
We are narrowing and increasing the companys full year EPS guidance to a range of $4.41 to $4.51. This compares to last years full year EPS of $4.18, which included approximately $0.11 per share for certain items, said Holley. Our guidance estimates assume that currency exchange rates remain at current levels. This reflects our confidence in the business for the back half of the year.

During the 13-week period, average ticket was up and traffic was down versus last year, for Walmart U.S. Both traffic and average ticket, on a year-over-year basis, improved sequentially each month in the period.

For the 4-5-4 period from July 30 through October 28, 2011, Walmart U.S. expects comparable store sales to range from negative one percent to positive one percent. The Walmart U.S. 13-week comp for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 declined 1.3 percent.
Im encouraged by the sales momentum we have from the second quarter. Our grocery and health and wellness business, representing two-thirds of our sales continued to deliver positive comps. Our hardlines and apparel businesses are improving, said Bill Simon, Walmart U.S. president and chief executive officer. We remain concerned about the economic pressure on our customers and the uncertain impact it can have on their shopping behavior. With this volatility, it is as important as ever to deliver on Walmarts one-stop shopping promise for broad assortment and every day low prices.
For Sams Club, comparable traffic and ticket, excluding fuel, were both higher than this period last year and increased for both Business and Advantage members for the 13-week period. Sams delivered comp increases in nearly all categories across the club.
Sams Club expects comp sales, without fuel, for the current 13-week period to increase between 3.0 percent and 5.0 percent. Last year, Sams Club comp, without fuel, for the third quarter comparable 13-week period rose 2.4 percent.
We had an outstanding second quarter, and our sales momentum remains strong. New member signups have been growing, said Brian Cornell, Sams Club president and chief executive officer. It was in the third quarter last year that our comp performance began to accelerate, so our comparisons for the back half of this year are more challenging, but we are confident in continuing our momentum.
Both Walmart U.S. and Sams Club will report comparable sales for the 13-week period on Nov. 15, when the company reports third quarter results.

Reconciliations of and Other Information regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)
(In millions, except per share data)
The following information provides reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures presented in the press release to which this reconciliation is attached to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The company has provided the non-GAAP financial information presented in the press release, which is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, as information supplemental and in addition to the financial measures presented in the press release that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented in the press release. The non-GAAP financial measures in the press release may differ from similar measures used by other companies.
Free Cash Flow
We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities in a period minus payments for property and equipment made in that period. Free cash flow was $4.0 billion and $4.5 billion for the six-month periods ended July 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Free cash flow is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under the SECs rules. Management believes, however, that free cash flow, which measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the companys financial performance. Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, income from continuing operations as a measure of our performance and net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
Additionally, our definition of free cash flow is limited, in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, we believe it is important to view free cash flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to our entire statements of cash flows.
Although other companies report their free cash flow, numerous methods may exist for calculating a companys free cash flow. As a result, the method used by our management to calculate free cash flow may differ from the methods other companies use to calculate their free cash flow. We urge you to understand the methods used by another company to calculate its free cash flow before comparing our free cash flow to that of such other company.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net cash provided by operating activities, a GAAP measure, which we believe to be the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to free cash flow, for the six-month periods ended July 31, 2011 and 2010, as well as information regarding net cash used in investing activities and net cash used in financing activities in those periods.

Calculation of Return on Investment and Return on Assets
Management believes return on investment (ROI) is a meaningful metric to share with investors because it helps investors assess how effectively Walmart is employing its assets. Trends in ROI can fluctuate over time as management balances long-term potential strategic initiatives with any possible short-term impacts.
ROI was 18.4 percent and 19.0 percent for the trailing 12 months ended July 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
We define ROI as adjusted operating income (operating income plus interest income, depreciation and amortization, and rent expense) for the fiscal year or trailing twelve months divided by average invested capital during that period. We consider average invested capital to be the average of our beginning and ending total assets of continuing operations plus accumulated depreciation and amortization less accounts payable and accrued liabilities for that period, plus a rent factor equal to the rent for the fiscal year or trailing twelve months multiplied by a factor of eight.
ROI is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under the SECs rules. We consider return on assets (ROA) to be the financial measure computed in accordance with GAAP that is the most directly comparable financial measure to ROI as we calculate that financial measure. ROI differs from ROA (which is income from continuing operations for the fiscal year or trailing twelve months divided by average total assets of continuing operations for the period) because ROI: adjusts operating income to exclude certain expense items and adds interest income; adjusts total assets from continuing operations for the impact of accumulated depreciation and amortization, accounts payable and accrued liabilities; and incorporates a factor of rent to arrive at total invested capital.
Although ROI is a standard financial metric, numerous methods exist for calculating a companys ROI. As a result, the method used by Walmarts management to calculate ROI may differ from the methods other companies use to calculate their ROI. We urge you to understand the methods used by another company to calculate its ROI before comparing our ROI to that of such other company.

The calculation of ROI along with reconciliation to the calculation of ROA, the most comparable GAAP financial measurement, is as follows:
