Walmart to release third-quarter results and hold earnings call on Nov. 19

Walmart Inc. said it will report its third-quarter earnings on Thursday, Nov. 19, 2026, with the results scheduled for release at 6 a.m. CST. The announcement also sets a time for management to discuss the quarter with the investment community during a live conference call at 7 a.m. CST.

The company’s notice, published Nov. 12, comes from its Bentonville, Arkansas headquarters and points to the timing for both the written earnings release and the subsequent question-and-answer session on the call.

While Walmart did not provide in the announcement any details about what specific topics management would address, companies typically use earnings calls to review performance drivers for the quarter and outline guidance or expectations for near-term operations. In this case, the company’s posted notice focused on the calendar rather than financial particulars.

For investors and analysts, the scheduling matters because it determines when quarterly results become available for modeling and when the market can react to management’s commentary. The one-hour gap between the 6 a.m. CST release and the 7 a.m. CST call is designed to give participants time to read the earnings materials before dialing in.

Walmart operates in a highly competitive retail market where store traffic, pricing, inventory management, and online fulfillment costs can influence quarterly results. It also faces ongoing shifts in consumer spending patterns and labor and transportation expenses, which are common line items on large retailers’ earnings statements.

The announcement did not include any information in the posted notice about whether the call will be accessible through a specific platform, whether there will be a webcast replay, or how long prepared remarks and the live Q&A portion are expected to run.

Investors will likely look for updates in the earnings release itself on the quarter’s key operating metrics and any commentary from executives on the outlook. Until those materials are published, the only confirmed information from the notice is the release date and timing of the call.
