Excluding the impact of currency, Walmart said its sales rose 2.8 per cent to $499.4 billion.
The retailer’s core US operations have shown some improvement, with sales at existing stores rising 1 per cent in the last fiscal year, excluding fuel. The company has said it believes its investments in wages and training have led to better customer service at its more than 5,000 US stores, including the Sam’s Club warehouse chain.
Greg Foran, head of the US business, saw his total compensation fall to $11.5 million from $19.5 million, as his stock awards were cut by more than half.
