The firm also noted two months ago that Walmart is emerging as a leader in applying artificial intelligence within the retail sector.Oppenheimer analysts said that strength in Walmart’s non-core businesses could prompt the retailer to raise its 2026 outlook, likely by increasing only the lower end of its EPS range.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Consensus View</h2>Analysts expect Walmart’s third-quarter revenue to increase 4.3% to $175.17 billion, according to Koyfin.
