out of 100
Walmart Inc. earns a fundamental-quality score of 65 out of 100, profiling it as a company of reasonable quality. Its score rests mainly on its financial strength (net debt 0.67× EBITDA). Its weakest area is its growth (revenue +5.1%/yr). Whether it's cheap or expensive depends on the current price, which you can compute in the tool.
Walmart is the world's largest retail chain by revenue. It sells everything at low prices across thousands of stores, and its online business, advertising and services carry growing weight.
