Walmart Inc.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Walmart Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Walmart" or the "Company") and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been included. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and the accompanying notes, are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") and do not contain certain information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, ~~2019~~2020 ("fiscal ~~2019"~~2020"). Therefore, the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with that Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements are based on a fiscal year ending January 31 for the United States ("U.S.") and Canadian operations. The Company consolidates all other operations generally using a one-month lag and based on a calendar year. There were no significant intervening events during the month of ~~July~~April related to the operations consolidated using a lag that materially affected the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company's business is seasonal to a certain extent due to calendar events and national and religious holidays, as well as weather patterns. Historically, the Company's highest sales volume and operating income have occurred in the fiscal quarter ending January 31.

~~Restricted Cash~~Use of Estimates

~~Restricted cash held outside~~The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. Those principles require management to make estimates and assumptions, including potential impacts arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and related government actions, that affect the reported amounts of ~~cash~~assets and ~~cash equivalents was $37 million~~liabilities. Management's estimates and ~~$34 million as~~assumptions also affect the disclosure of July 31, 2019 and January 31, 2019, respectively, and was primarily recorded in prepaid expenses and other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Restricted cash not classified as part of cash and cash equivalents was $22 million and approximately $0.3 billion as of July 31, 2018 and January 31, 2018, respectively, and was primarily recorded in other long-term assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

~~Inventories~~

~~At July 31, 2019 and January 31, 2019, the Company's inventories valued at LIFO approximated those inventories as if they were valued at FIFO.~~

~~Leases~~

~~In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases (Topic 842), which requires lease~~contingent assets and liabilities ~~to be recorded on~~at the balance sheet. The Company adopted this ASU and related amendments as of February 1, 2019 under the modified retrospective approach and elected certain practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, including to retain the historical lease classification as well as relief from reviewing expired or existing contracts to determine if they contain leases. For leases subject to index or rate adjustments, the most current index or rate adjustments were included in the measurement of operating lease obligations at adoption.

~~The adoption of this ASU and related amendments resulted in a $14.8 billion increase to total assets and a $15.1 billion increase to total liabilities in the first quarter~~date of the ~~fiscal year ending January 31, 2020 ("fiscal 2020"). In~~financial statements and the ~~first quarter~~reported amounts of ~~fiscal 2020,~~revenues and expenses during the Company recognized $16.8 billion and $17.5 billion of operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease obligations, respectively, and removed $2.2 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively, of assets and liabilities related to financial obligations connected with the construction of leased stores. Several other asset and liability line items in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet were also impacted by immaterial amounts. Additionally, the adoption resulted in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings of approximately $0.3 billion, net of tax, which primarily consisted of the recognition of impairment. The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows were immaterially impacted. Updated accounting policies as a result of the adoption of this ASU are described below. ~~Note 10~~ ~~provides additional lease disclosures.~~reporting period. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates.

For any new or modified lease, the Company, at the inception of the contract, determines whether a contract is or contains a lease. The Company records right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease obligations for its finance and operating leases, which are initially recognized based on the discounted future minimum lease payments over the term of the lease. As the rate implicit in the Company's leases is not easily determinable, the Company’s applicable incremental borrowing rate is used in calculating the present value of the sum of the lease payments.

Lease term is defined as the non-cancelable period of the lease plus any options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. The Company has elected not to recognize ROU asset and lease obligations for its short-term leases, which are defined as leases with an initial term of 12 months or less.

~~Table of Contents~~

For a majority of all classes of underlying assets, the Company has elected to not separate lease from non-lease components. For leases in which the lease and non-lease components have been combined, the variable lease expense includes expenses such as common area maintenance, utilities, and repairs and maintenance.

~~Revenue Recognition~~

~~Contract Balances~~

Contract balances as a result of transactions with customers primarily consist of receivables included in receivables, net, and deferred gift card revenue included in accrued liabilities in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table provides the Company's receivables and deferred gift card revenue from transactions with customers:

(Amounts in millions) July 31, 2019 January 31, 2019
Assets:
Receivables from transactions with customers, net $ 2,483
$ 2,538

Liabilities:
Deferred gift card revenue $ 1,765
$ 1,932

~~Derivatives~~

~~In fiscal 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2017-12,~~ ~~Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities~~. The adoption of the standard had no current or historical impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company continues to use qualitative methods to assess the effectiveness of its designated hedging relationships. Upon adopting ASU 2017-12, the Company modified its existing hedge documentation to use a quantitative method for assessing effectiveness when the hedge is subsequently determined to be ineffective under the qualitative method. There were no other significant changes to the Company's accounting policies for derivatives.

~~Recent Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~Financial Instruments~~Receivables

In June 2016, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ~~ASU~~Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments–Credit Losses (Topic 326), which modifies the measurement of expected credit losses of certain financial instruments. The Company ~~will adopt~~adopted this ASU on February 1, ~~2020. Management is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its~~2020 with no material impact to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Receivables are stated at their carrying values, net of a reserve for credit losses, and are primarily due from the following: customers, which also includes insurance companies resulting from pharmacy sales, banks for customer credit, debit cards and electronic transfer transactions that take in excess of seven days to process; suppliers for marketing or incentive programs; governments for income taxes; and real estate transactions.

Note 2. Net Income ~~or Loss~~ Per Common Share

Basic net income ~~(loss)~~ per common share attributable to Walmart is based on the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the relevant period. Diluted net income ~~(loss)~~ per common share attributable to Walmart is based on the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the relevant period adjusted for the dilutive effect of share-based awards. The Company did not have significant share-based awards outstanding that were anti-dilutive and not included in the calculation of diluted net income ~~(loss) per common share attributable to Walmart for the three and six months ended July 31, 2019 and 2018. Further, the calculation of diluted net loss~~ per common share attributable to Walmart for the three months ended ~~July 31, 2018 does not include the effect of stock options~~April 30, 2020 and ~~other share-based awards as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive, and would reduce the net loss per common share.~~2019.

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured using the fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

Level 1: observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

Level 3: unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.

The Company ~~has~~measures the fair value of equity investments ~~primarily~~(primarily its investment in ~~JD.com, Inc. ("JD"), measured at fair value~~JD.com) on a recurring basis ~~included~~and records them in other long-term assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet as follows:~~

Sheets. The ~~purchased portion of the investment in JD measured using Level 1 inputs, and~~

The portion of the investment in JD received in exchange for selling certain assets related to Yihaodian, the Company's former eCommerce operations in China, measured using Level 2 inputs. Fair value is determined primarily using quoted prices in active markets for similar assets.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~Information for the~~ fair value of the Company's investment in JDJD.com is as follows:



(Amounts in millions)	Fair Value as of April 30, 2020		Fair Value as of January 31, 2020

~~The changes in fair value for the Company's investment in JD is included in other gains and losses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.~~Derivatives

The Company also ~~holds derivative instruments.~~has derivatives recorded at fair value. Derivative fair values are the estimated amounts the Company would receive or pay upon termination of the related derivative agreements as of the reporting dates. The fair values have been measured using the income approach and Level 2 inputs, which include the relevant interest ~~yield~~rate and foreign currency forward curves. As of ~~July 31, 2019~~April 30, 2020 and January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the notional amounts and fair values of these derivatives were as follows:

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company's assets and liabilities are also subject to nonrecurring fair value measurements. Generally, ~~fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis~~assets are ~~required as a result of a qualitative assessment of the Company's assets indicating a potential impairment or due to a business acquisition. Impairment charges to assets measured~~recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis ~~during the six months ended July 31, 2019 were immaterial.~~

~~As discussed in~~ ~~Note 8, the~~as a result of impairment charges. The Company ~~met the criteria~~did not have any material assets or liabilities subject to recognize Walmart Brazil as held for sale in the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Prior to meeting the held for sale criteria, the carrying values of the long-lived assets were concluded to be recoverable based upon cash flows expected to be generated over the assets' useful lives. When the sale of Walmart Brazil became probable, the Company reclassified the related assets and liabilities to held for sale and measured the disposal group atnonrecurring fair value ~~less costs to sell. The assets~~measurements as of the disposal group totaled $3.3 billion and were comprised of $1.0 billion in current assets, $1.6 billion in property and equipment and property under capital lease and financing obligations, net, and $0.7 billion of other long-term assets. These assets were fully impaired during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 as the carrying value of the disposal group exceeded the fair value, less costs to sell. This impairment charge was included in the $4.8 billion loss recorded in other gains and losses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as part of the Walmart International segment for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018.April 30, 2020.

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The Company records cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term borrowings at cost. The carrying values of these instruments approximate their fair value due to their short-term maturities.

Table of Contents

The Company's long-term debt is also recorded at cost. The fair value is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on the Company's current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying value and fair value of the Company's long-term debt as of ~~July 31, 2019~~April 30, 2020 and January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, are as follows:

Note 6. ~~Derivative Financial Instruments~~

In connection with various derivative agreements, including master netting arrangements, the Company held cash collateral from counterparties of $216 million and $220 million at July 31, 2019 and January 31, 2019, respectively. Furthermore, as part of the master netting arrangements with each of these counterparties, the Company is also required to post collateral with a counterparty if the Company's net derivative liability position exceeds $150 million with such counterparties. The Company did not have any cash collateral posted with counterparties at July 31, 2019 or January 31, 2019.

~~Table of Contents~~

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in a number of legal proceedings. The Company has made accruals with respect to these matters, where appropriate, which are reflected in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. For some matters, a liability is not probable or the amount cannot be reasonably estimated and therefore an accrual has not been made. However, where a liability is reasonably possible and may be material, such matters have been disclosed. The Company may enter into discussions regarding settlement of these matters, and may enter into settlement agreements, if it believes settlement is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.

Unless stated otherwise, the matters discussed below, if decided adversely to or settled by the Company, individually or in the aggregate, may result in a liability material to the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

ASDA Equal Value Claims

ASDA Stores Ltd. ("Asda"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, is a defendant in over ~~30,000~~35,000 equal value ("Equal Value") claims that began in 2008 and are proceeding before an Employment Tribunal in Manchester (the "Employment Tribunal") in the United Kingdom ("UK") on behalf of current and former Asda store employees, and further claims may be asserted in the future. The claimants allege that the work performed by ~~female~~ employees in Asda's retail stores is of equal value in terms of, among other things, the demands of their jobs compared to that of ~~male~~ employees working in Asda's warehouse and distribution facilities, and that the ~~disparity~~difference in pay between these ~~different~~ job positions disparately impacts women because more women work in retail stores while more men work in warehouses and distribution facilities, and that the pay difference is not objectively justified. ~~As a result,~~The claimants are requesting differential back pay based on higher wage rates in the warehouse and distribution facilities and higher wage rates on a prospective basis.

In March 2015, Asda asked the Employment Tribunal to stay all proceedings and to "strike out" substantially all of the claims because the claimants had not adhered to the Tribunal's procedural rule for including multiple claimants on the same claim form. Ultimately, the Court of Appeals declined to strike out any claims relying on the Employment Tribunal’s finding that claimants had not deliberately disregarded the Tribunal’s procedural rule.

~~As to the initial phase of the Equal Value claims, in~~ October 2016, following a preliminary hearing, the Employment Tribunal ruled that claimants could compare their positions in Asda's retail stores with those of employees in Asda's warehouse and distribution facilities. ~~In August 2017,~~Asda appealed the ~~Employment Appeal Tribunal affirmed the Employment Tribunal's~~ ruling and ~~also granted permission for Asda~~the appeal is scheduled to ~~appeal substantially all of its findings. Asda sought permission to appeal~~be heard by the ~~remainder~~Supreme Court of the Employment Appeal Tribunal's findings to the Court of Appeals and a hearing before the Court of Appeals on the comparability findings was held in October 2018. The Court of Appeals upheld the Employment Tribunal’s findings. The Supreme Court granted Asda's application to appeal the Court of Appeals decisionUnited Kingdom beginning on July ~~31, 2019.~~14, 2020.

~~Claimants~~Notwithstanding the appeal, claimants are proceeding in the next phase of their claims. That phase will determine whether the work performed by the claimants is of equal value to the work performed by employees in Asda's warehouse and distribution facilities.

~~Table of Contents~~

At present, the Company cannot predict the number of such claims that may be filed, and cannot reasonably estimate any loss or range of loss that may arise from these proceedings. Accordingly, the Company can provide no assurance as to the scope and outcomes of these matters and no assurance as to whether its business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows will not be materially adversely affected. The Company believes it has substantial factual and legal defenses to these claims, and intends to defend the claims vigorously.

~~National~~ Prescription Opiate Litigation and ~~Related~~Other Matters

In December 2017, the ~~United States~~U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation consolidated numerous lawsuits filed against a wide array of defendants by various plaintiffs, including counties, cities, healthcare providers, Native American tribes, individuals, and third-party payors, asserting claims generally concerning the impacts of widespread opioid abuse. The consolidated multidistrict litigation is entitled In re National Prescription Opiate Litigation ~~(MDL~~(MDL No. 2804) ~~and~~, is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio. The Company is named as a defendant in some of the cases included in this multidistrict litigation. Similar cases that name the Company have also been filed in state courts by state, local and tribal governments, health care providers and other plaintiffs. Plaintiffs are seeking compensatory and punitive damages, as well as injunctive relief including abatement. The Company cannot predict the number of such claims that may be filed, but believes it has substantial factual and legal defenses to these claims, and intends to defend the claims vigorously. The Company has also been responding to subpoenas, information requests and investigations from governmental entities related to nationwide controlled substance dispensing and distribution practices involving opioids. The Company cannot reasonably estimate any loss or range of loss that may arise from these matters. Accordingly, the Company can provide no assurance as to the scope and outcome of these matters and no assurance as to whether its business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows will not be materially adversely affected.

~~FCPA Investigation and Related Matters~~

As previously disclosed, the Company was under investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (the "DOJ") and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") regarding possible violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the "FCPA"). Throughout the investigative process, the Company cooperated with the DOJ and the SEC, and on June 20, 2019, the Company announced the resolution of the investigations with the DOJ and the SEC and paid $283 million in June 2019 consisting of a combination of penalties, disgorgement and interest as further described below (the "Settlement Amount"). The Company previously recorded the Settlement Amount in the Company's fiscal 2018 consolidated financial statements in anticipated settlement of these matters.

~~The resolution of the investigations with the DOJ and SEC included:~~

A non-prosecution agreement (the "NPA") between the DOJ and the Company for a three-year term. Pursuant to the NPA, the Company paid a $138 million penalty and agreed to maintain the Company's anti-corruption compliance program for three years, certain reporting obligations for three years, and a limited monitorship with a third party for two years regarding the Company's anti-corruption compliance program, with the possibility of a third year pending the results of the monitorship during the initial two-year period. The DOJ agreed that it will not prosecute the Company for any conduct described in the NPA provided that the Company performs its obligations under the NPA for the three-year term.

A plea agreement (the "Plea Agreement") entered into for a three-year term by the DOJ and WMT Brasilia S.a.r.l., an indirect wholly-owned foreign subsidiary of the Company ("WMT Brasilia") that previously owned a majority stake of the Company's Brazilian business. Through the Plea Agreement, entered in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, WMT Brasilia pled guilty to one count of causing a books and records violation of the FCPA. The Company on behalf of WMT Brasilia was assessed a $4 million penalty, including forfeiture, that was deducted from the amount paid by the Company under the NPA.

A Cease-and-Desist Order entered into by the SEC in a civil administrative proceeding (the "SEC Order"), the entry of which the Company consented to with respect to certain violations of the books and records and internal controls provisions of the FCPA. The Company paid $145 million in disgorgement and interest, and agreed to make certain reports to the SEC on its anti-corruption compliance and remediation efforts for two years, and cease and desist any violations of the books and records and internal controls provisions of the FCPA.

On June 20, 2019, the Company also entered into an Administrative Agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") for a three-year term, which replaces the interim administrative agreement between the Company and the EPA dated May 28, 2013. The May 28, 2013 agreement arose as part of a settlement by the Company regarding certain hazardous waste materials matters with several governmental authorities. The new EPA agreement, among other things, resolved any debarment or suspension as to participation in federal government programs by the Company due to the NPA, the Plea Agreement, and the SEC Order, provided that the Company fulfills the terms and conditions of the new EPA agreement, which requires reporting by the Company to the EPA periodically during the three-year term, and requires a new, limited two-year monitorship. The monitor referenced above that has been engaged by the Company under the NPA will also monitor compliance with the new EPA agreement. If the DOJ monitorship is extended as referenced above, the EPA monitorship may also be extended for an additional year.

In addition, the Company expects to incur costs in implementing the settlement and may incur costs in responding to any new civil or regulatory actions. The Company does not presently believe that these matters will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

~~Note 8. Disposals, Acquisitions and Related Items~~

~~The following disposals, acquisitions and related items pertain to the Company's Walmart International segment. Other immaterial transactions have also occurred or have been announced.~~

~~Walmart Brazil~~

In August 2018, the Company sold an 80 percent stake of Walmart Brazil to Advent International ("Advent"). Under the terms, Advent agreed to contribute additional capital to the business over a three-year period and Walmart agreed to indemnify Advent for certain matters.

As a result, the Company recorded a pre-tax net loss of $4.8 billion during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 in other gains and losses in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. In calculating the loss, the fair value of the disposal group was reduced by $0.8 billion related to an indemnity, for which a liability was recognized upon closing and is recorded in deferred income taxes and other in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company indemnified Advent for certain pre-closing tax and legal contingencies and other matters for up to R$2.3 billion, adjusted for interest based on the Brazilian interbank deposit rate.

The Company deconsolidated the financial statements of Walmart Brazil during the third quarter of fiscal 2019 and began accounting for its remaining 20 percent ownership interest using the equity method of accounting. This equity method investment was determined to have 0 fair value and continues to have 0 carrying value.

~~Flipkart Private Limited ("Flipkart")~~

In August 2018, the Company acquired 81 percent of the outstanding shares, or 77 percent of the diluted shares, of Flipkart, an Indian-based eCommerce marketplace, for cash consideration of approximately $16 billion. The acquisition increased the Company's investment in India, a large, growing economy. The Company has finalized the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the Flipkart acquisition as follows:

Assets of $24.1 billion, which comprise primarily of $2.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents, $2.8 billion in other current assets, $5.0 billion in intangible assets and $13.5 billion in goodwill. Of the intangible assets, $4.7 billion represents the fair value of trade names, each with an indefinite life, which were estimated using the income approach based on Level 3 unobservable inputs. The remaining $0.3 billion of intangible assets primarily relate to acquired technology with a life of 3 years. The goodwill arising from the acquisition consists largely of anticipated synergies and economies of scale primarily related to procurement and logistics and is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes;

~~Liabilities of $3.7 billion, which comprise primarily of $1.8 billion of current liabilities and $1.7 billion of deferred income taxes; and~~

~~Noncontrolling interest of $4.3 billion, for which the fair value was estimated using the income approach based on Level 3 unobservable inputs.~~

Note 9.7. Segments and Disaggregated Revenue

Segments

The Company is engaged in the operation of retail, wholesale and other units, as well as eCommerce websites, located throughout the U.S., Africa, Argentina, Canada, Central America, Chile, China, India, Japan, Mexico, and the United ~~Kingdom, as well as Brazil until the sale of the majority stake discussed in~~ ~~Note 8~~.Kingdom. The Company's operations are conducted in 3 reportable segments: Walmart U.S., Walmart International and Sam's Club. The Company defines its segments as those operations whose results the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") regularly reviews to analyze performance and allocate resources. The Company sells similar individual products and services in each of its segments. It is impractical to segregate and identify revenues for each of these individual products and services.

The Walmart U.S. segment includes the Company's mass ~~merchant~~merchandising concept in the U.S., as well as eCommerce and omni-channel initiatives. The Walmart International segment consists of the Company's operations outside of the U.S., as well as eCommerce and omni-channel initiatives. The Sam's Club segment includes the warehouse membership clubs in the U.S., as well as samsclub.com and omni-channel initiatives. Corporate and support consists of corporate overhead and other items not allocated to any of the Company's segments.

~~Table of Contents~~

The Company measures the results of its segments using, among other measures, each segment's net sales and operating income, which includes certain corporate overhead allocations. From time to time, the Company revises the measurement of each segment's operating income, including any corporate overhead allocations, as determined by the information regularly reviewed by its CODM. When the measurement of a segment changes, previous period amounts and balances are reclassified to be comparable to the current period's presentation. Beginning with the first quarter in fiscal 2021, the Company revised its definition of eCommerce net sales to include certain pharmacy transactions and, accordingly, revised prior period amounts to maintain comparability.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

This discussion, which presents Walmart Inc.'s ("Walmart," the "Company," "our," or "we") results for periods occurring in the fiscal year ending January 31, ~~2020~~2021 ("fiscal ~~2020"~~2021") and the fiscal year ended January 31, ~~2019~~2020 ("fiscal ~~2019"~~2020"), should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31, 2019,~~April 30, 2020, and the accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the year ended January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the accompanying notes and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, ~~2019 incorporated by reference.~~2020.

We intend for this discussion to provide the reader with information that will assist in understanding our financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from period to period and the primary factors that accounted for those changes. We also discuss certain performance metrics that management uses to assess the Company's performance. Additionally, the discussion provides information about the financial results of each of the three segments of our business to provide a better understanding of how each of those segments and its results of operations affect the financial condition and results of operations of the Company as a whole.

Throughout this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, we discuss segment operating income, comparable store and club sales and other measures. Management measures the results of the Company's segments using each segment's operating income, including certain corporate overhead allocations, as well as other measures. From time to time, we revise the measurement of each segment's operating income and other measures as determined by the information regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker.

Comparable store and club sales, or comparable sales, is a metric that indicates the performance of our existing stores and clubs by measuring the change in sales for such stores and clubs, including eCommerce sales, for a particular period from the corresponding ~~period in the previous year.~~prior year period. Walmart's definition of comparable sales includes sales from stores and clubs open for the previous 12 months, including remodels, relocations, expansions and conversions, as well as eCommerce sales. We measure the eCommerce sales impact by including all sales initiated ~~online or~~digitally and those initiated through mobile applications, including omni-channel transactions which are fulfilled through our stores and clubs. Sales at a store that has changed in format are excluded from comparable sales when the conversion of that store is accompanied by a relocation or expansion that results in a change in the store's retail square feet of more than five percent. Additionally, sales related to acquisitions are excluded until such acquisitions have been owned for 12 months. Comparable sales are also referred to as "same-store" sales by others within the retail industry. The method of calculating comparable sales varies across the retail industry. As a result, our calculation of comparable sales is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Beginning with the first quarter of the current fiscal year, we updated our definition of what was previously referred to as traffic (a component, along with ticket, of comparable sales). Traffic is now referred to as "transactions" and measures a percentage change in the number of sales transactions in our comparable stores, as well as for comparable eCommerce activity.

In discussing our operating results, the term currency exchange rates refers to the currency exchange rates we use to convert the operating results for countries where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar into U.S. dollars or for countries experiencing hyperinflation. We calculate the effect of changes in currency exchange rates as the difference between current period activity translated using the current ~~period's~~period’s currency exchange rates and the comparable prior year ~~period's~~period’s currency exchange rates. Additionally, no currency exchange rate fluctuations are calculated for non-USD acquisitions until owned for 12 months. Throughout our discussion, we refer to the results of this calculation as the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations. Volatility in currency exchange rates may impact the results, including net sales and operating income, of the Company and the Walmart International segment in the future.

Each of our segments ~~contribute~~contributes to the Company's operating results differently. Each, however, has generally maintained a consistent contribution rate to the Company's net sales and operating income in recent years other than minor changes to the contribution rate for the Walmart International segment due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. ~~We recently took some strategic actions to further position our portfolio for long-term growth, including:~~

~~The Retail Industry~~

We operate in the highly competitive omni-channel retail industry in all of the markets we serve. We face strong sales competition from other discount, department, drug, dollar, variety and specialty stores, warehouse clubs and supermarkets, as well as eCommerce businesses. Many of these competitors are national, regional or international chains or have a national or international omni-channel or eCommerce presence. We compete with a number of companies for attracting and retaining quality employees ("associates"). We, along with other retail companies, are influenced by a number of factors including, but not limited to: catastrophic events and global health epidemics including the recent COVID-19 pandemic, weather, competitive pressures, consumer disposable income, consumer debt levels and buying patterns, consumer credit availability, cost of goods, currency exchange rate fluctuations, customer preferences, deflation, inflation, fuel and energy prices, general economic conditions, insurance costs, interest rates, labor costs, tax rates, the imposition of tariffs, cybersecurity attacks and unemployment. Further information on the factors that can affect our operating results and on certain risks to our Company and an investment in our securities can be found herein under "Item 5. Other Information."

COVID-19 Updates

Our strategy is to make every day easier for busy families, operate with discipline, sharpen our culture, become more digital, and make trust a competitive advantage. These areas of focus are fundamental in running our business every day, and even more so now as Walmart plays an important role during the current COVID-19 pandemic.

Supporting our associates.We remain focused on our strategy while also prioritizing the physical safety, financial health and emotional well-being of our associates. In the U.S., we provided extra pay and benefits, including the payment of a special cash bonus to hourly associates in the first quarter of fiscal 2021 and the introduction of a COVID-19 Emergency Leave Policy. In May 2020, we announced a second special cash bonus to be paid in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. We have also done similar things in some of our international markets to support and reward associates.

Serving our customers.From an operational standpoint, we reduced store hours to allow for additional cleaning and sanitizing, posted social-distancing decals, implemented protocols for temperature checks, began metering the number of customers in a store or club at any one time, and installed sneeze guards at pharmacies and checkouts. Stores, clubs, and facilities received masks and gloves, and associates are required to wear face coverings to protect both our associates and our customers. We hired more than 300,000 associates through May 2020 in the U.S., many of whom are temporary.

Helping others.We increased our giving to community organizations as well as continuing food donations from our stores and distribution centers. We supported tenants in various markets by waiving or discounting rent for in-store tenants during April 2020, which continued through May 2020. We have also made financial support available to our suppliers.

Managing the business and driving our long-term strategy.As we take care of associates, customers and communities, we continue to manage the business and drive our long-term strategy. We are maintaining our everyday low-price discipline and our omni-channel offering continues to resonate with customers around the world who are increasingly seeking convenience.

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in broad challenges globally in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, including new and varying government regulations, stretching our supply chain, and introducing significant sales volatility as well as channel and mix shifts due to changing consumer habits. Unprecedented demand led to strong growth in net sales, but lower gross margin rates and higher operating expenses during the quarter. For a detailed discussion on results of operations by reportable segment, refer to "Results of Operations" below.

We expect continued uncertainty in our business and the global economy due to the duration and intensity of the COVID–19 pandemic; the length and impact of stay–at–home orders; the scale and duration of economic stimulus; and volatility in employment trends and consumer confidence which will impact our results in the short term.

In the current environment, we believe cash flows from operations, our current cash position and access to capital markets will continue to be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs, which include funding seasonal buildups in merchandise inventories and funding our capital expenditures, acquisitions, dividend payments and share repurchases. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for additional information.

Company Performance Metrics

We are committed to helping customers save money and live better through everyday low prices, supported by everyday low costs. At times, we adjust our business strategies to maintain and strengthen our competitive positions in the countries in which we operate. We define our financial framework as:

strong, efficient growth;

consistent operating discipline; and

strategic capital allocation.

As we execute on this financial framework, we believe our returns on capital will improve over time.

The COVID-19 pandemic affected our business resulting in sales volatility within the first quarter and overall net sales growth. As our Company continues to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have prioritized our focus on associate care, including extra pay and benefits as well as masks and gloves; increased cleaning and sanitation measures; customer safety; and new associate hiring. Additionally, we've delayed certain consulting projects and reduced marketing and travel in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Strong, Efficient Growth

Our objective of prioritizing strong, efficient growth means we will focus on the most productive growth opportunities, increasing comparable store and club sales, accelerating eCommerce sales growth and expansion of omni-channel initiatives while slowing the rate of growth of new stores and clubs. At times, we make strategic investments which are focused on the long-term growth of the Company.

Comparable sales is a metric that indicates the performance of our existing stores and clubs by measuring the change in sales for such stores and clubs, including eCommerce sales, for a particular period over the corresponding period in the previous year. The retail industry generally reports comparable sales using the retail calendar (also known as the 4-5-4 calendar). To be consistent with the retail industry, we provide comparable sales using the retail calendar in our quarterly earnings releases. However, when we discuss our comparable sales below, we are referring to our calendar comparable sales calculated using our fiscal calendar. As our fiscal calendar differs from the retail calendar, our fiscal calendar comparable sales also differ from the retail calendar comparable sales provided in our quarterly earnings releases. Calendar comparable sales, as well as the impact of fuel, for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31,~~April 30, 2020 and 2019, were as follows:

Consistent Operating Discipline

We operate with discipline by managing expenses and optimizing the efficiency of how we work and creating an environment in which we have sustainable lowest cost to serve. We invest in technology and process improvements to increase productivity, manage inventory and reduce costs. We measure operating discipline through expense leverage, which we define as net sales growing at a faster rate than operating, selling, general and administrative ("operating") expenses.

Strategic Capital Allocation

~~We are allocating~~Our strategy includes improving our customer-facing initiatives in stores and clubs and creating a seamless omni-channel experience for our customers. In recent years, we have allocated more capital to eCommerce, technology, ~~and~~ supply chain, ~~as well as~~and store remodels and less to new store and club ~~openings, when~~openings. We will continue to remain disciplined with our capital spending in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Total capital expenditures for three months ended April 30, 2020 decreased compared to the prior years. This allocation aligns with our initiatives of improving our customer proposition in stores and clubs and integrating digital and physical shopping and is consistent with the capital expenditure detail provided inyear; the following ~~table:~~

table provides additional detail:

Returns

As we execute our financial framework, we believe our return on capital will improve over time. We measure return on capital with our return on investment and free cash flow metrics. In addition, we provide returns in the form of share repurchases and dividends, which are discussed in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section.

Return on Assets and Return on Investment

We include Return on Assets ("ROA"), the most directly comparable measure based on our financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. ("GAAP"), and Return on Investment ("ROI") as metrics to assess returns on assets. While ROI is considered a non-GAAP financial measure, management believes ROI is a meaningful metric to share with investors because it helps investors assess how effectively Walmart is deploying its assets. Trends in ROI can fluctuate over time as management balances long-term strategic initiatives with possible short-term impacts. ROA was ~~6.0%~~6.6% and ~~2.9%~~4.0% for the trailing twelve months ended ~~July 31,~~April 30, 2020 and 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ respectively. The increase in ROA was primarily due to the increase in consolidated net income ~~over the trailing twelve months, primarily resulting from~~as a result of lapping the $4.5 billion net loss in fiscal 2019 related to the sale of the majority stake in Walmart Brazil and the change in fair value of the investment in JD.com, partially offset by the dilution to operating income related to Flipkart and business restructuring ~~and impairment~~ charges recorded in ~~the fourth quarter of~~ fiscal ~~2018.~~2020. ROI was ~~14.3%~~13.4% and ~~13.8%~~14.5% for the trailing twelve months ended ~~July 31,~~April 30, 2020 and 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ respectively. The ~~increase~~decrease in ROI was primarily due to the ~~increase~~decrease in operating income ~~over the trailing twelve months primarily~~ as a result of ~~lapping~~ the dilution from Flipkart and business restructuring ~~and impairment~~ charges recorded in ~~the fourth quarter of~~ fiscal ~~2018. The denominator remained relatively flat~~2020, as well as the ~~$11.6 billion~~ increase in average total assets due to the ~~Flipkart Acquisition was offset by the decrease in average invested capital resulting from the removal~~acquisition of ~~the eight times rent factor upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases ("ASU 2016-02") since operating lease right of use assets are now included in total assets~~Flipkart.

~~Table of Contents~~

We define ROI as adjusted operating income (operating income plus interest income, depreciation and amortization, and rent expense) for the trailing 12 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, plus average accumulated depreciation and average amortization, less average accounts payable and average accrued liabilities for that period. ~~Upon adoption of ASU 2016-02, rent for~~For the trailing 12twelve months ~~multiplied by a factor of 8 is no longer included in the calculation of ROI on a prospective basis as operating lease assets are now capitalized. For fiscal 2020,~~ended April 30, 2019, lease related assets and associated accumulated amortization are included in the denominator at their carrying amount as of ~~the current~~that balance sheet date, rather than averaged, because they are ~~no longer~~not directly comparable to the prior year calculation which included rent for the trailing 12 months multiplied by a factor of 8. A two-point average ~~will be~~was used for leased assets beginning in fiscal 2021, after one full year from the date of adoption of the new lease standard. Further, beginning prospectively in fiscal 2020, rent expense in the numerator excludes short-term and variable lease costs as these costs are not included in the operating lease right-of-use asset balance.

Prior to adoption of ASU 2016-02, we defined ROI as adjusted operating income (operating income plus interest income, depreciation and amortization, and rent expense) for the trailing 12 months divided by average invested capital during that period. We considered average invested capital to be the average of our beginning and ending total assets, plus average accumulated depreciation and average amortization, less average accounts payable and average accrued liabilities for that period, plus a rent factor equal to the rent for the fiscal year or trailing 12 months multiplied by a factor of 8, which estimated the hypothetical capitalization of our operating leases. ~~Because the new lease standard was adopted under the modified retrospective approach as of February 1, 2019, our calculation of ROI for the comparable fiscal 2019 period was not revised.~~

Our calculation of ROI is considered a non-GAAP financial measure because we calculate ROI using financial measures that exclude and include amounts that are included and excluded in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. For example, we exclude the impact of depreciation and amortization from our reported operating income in calculating the numerator of our calculation of ROI. As mentioned above, we consider ROA to be the financial measure computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles most directly comparable to our calculation of ROI. ROI differs from ROA (which is consolidated net income for the period divided by average total assets for the period) because ROI: adjusts operating income to exclude certain expense items and adds interest income; adjusts total assets for the impact of accumulated depreciation and amortization, accounts payable and accrued liabilities to arrive at total invested capital. Because of the adjustments mentioned above, we believe ROI more accurately measures how we are deploying our key assets and is more meaningful to investors than ROA.Although ROI is a standard financial measure, numerous methods exist for calculating a company's ROI. As a result, the method used by management to calculate our ROI may differ from the methods used by other companies to calculate their ~~ROI.~~ROI

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. 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 Company's financial performance. Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, consolidated net income as a measure of our performance and net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for discussions of GAAP metrics including net cash provided by operating activities, net cash used in investing activities and net cash used in financing activities.

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. We had net cash provided by operating activities of ~~$11.2~~$7.0 billion for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~July 31, 2019,~~April 30, 2020, which ~~was relatively flat~~increased when compared to ~~$11.1~~$3.6 billion for the ~~six~~three months ended April 30, 2019 ~~July 31,~~due to the accelerated timing of inventory sell-through in the current period primarily related to the impacts of COVID-19, as well as the timing of vendor and other payments. ~~2018.~~ We generated free cash flow of ~~$6.3 billion for the six months ended July 31, 2019,~~ ~~which declined when~~ ~~compared to $6.8~~$5.3 billion for the three months ended ~~July 31,~~April 30, 2020, ~~2018 primarily~~ which increased when compared to $1.4 billion for the three months ended April 30, 2019 due to ~~$0.6~~the same reasons as the increase in net cash provided by operating activities, as well as $0.5 billion in ~~increased~~decreased capital ~~expenditures.~~expenditures.

Walmart's 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 Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Although other companies report their free cash flow, numerous methods may exist for calculating a company's free cash flow. As a result, the method used by management to calculate our free cash flow may differ from the methods used by other companies to calculate their free cash flow.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net cash provided by operating activities, which we believe to be the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to free cash flow, as well as information regarding net cash used in investing activities and net cash used in financing activities.

Net sales were also positively affected by an extra day in February 2020 due to a leap year which increased net sales ~~which we acquired in August 2018.~~by approximately 1%. These increases were partially offset by ~~our sale of the majority stake in Walmart Brazil in August 2018 and~~ a $1.3 ~~billion and $3.2~~ billion negative impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31, 2019, respectively.~~April 30, 2020.

As the COVID-19 pandemic spread to the U.S in late February, we saw the mix of sales shift heavily toward food and consumables as consumers initiated stock-up trips. As the first quarter of fiscal 2021 progressed, we started to see pockets of strength in several general merchandise categories as consumers adapted to spending more time at home. Toward the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2021, sales increased in several general merchandise categories, such as apparel, electronics, sporting goods, and toys, which were heavily influenced by stimulus dollars in the U.S. in April. eCommerce sales remained strong throughout the first quarter of fiscal 2021 as more customers gravitated toward store pickup and delivery.

Our gross profit as a percentage of net sales ("gross profit rate") decreased ~~23 and 31~~66 basis points for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31, 2019,~~April 30, 2020, when compared to the same ~~periods~~period in the previous fiscal year. ~~These decreases were~~The decrease was primarily the result of a carryover of prior year price investments and unfavorable shifts in category and channel mix in our Walmart U.S. segment due to changes in consumer spending in response to the addition of Flipkart and price investment in the Walmart U.S. and Walmart International segments, partially offset by favorable merchandise mix including strength in private brands and less pressure from transportation costs in the Walmart U.S. segment.COVID-19 pandemic described above.

Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased ~~25 and 20~~62 basis points for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31, 2019, respectively,~~April 30, 2020, when compared to the same ~~periods~~period in the previous fiscal ~~year.

Other gains and losses consisted of a ~~loss~~gain of ~~$85 million~~$0.7 billion and ~~$4.8~~$0.8 billion for the three months ended ~~July 31,~~April 30, 2020 and 2019, ~~and July 31, 2018, respectively, consisted of a gain of $752 million and a loss of $6.7 billion for~~primarily representing the six months ended July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018, respectively. The changes in other gains and losses when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year were primarily due to the inclusion of a $4.8 billion pre-tax loss recorded related to the sale of a majority stake in Walmart Brazil and the recognition of changes in fair value change of our ~~investment in JD.com.~~JD.com investment.

Our effective income tax rate was ~~25.1% and 24.7%~~24.5% for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31, 2019, respectively,~~April 30, 2020 compared to ~~283% and 52%~~24.3% for the same ~~periods~~period in the previous fiscal year. The decrease in our effective tax rate is primarily due to the loss related to the sale of a majority stake in Walmart Brazil which increased the effective tax rate 227% and 28% for the three and six months ended July 31, 2018, respectively, as it provided minimal realizable tax benefit. Additionally, for the three months ended July 31, 2018, the adjustment in the provisional amount recorded related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 increased the effective tax rate by 31%. Our effective income tax rate may fluctuate from quarter to quarter as a result of factors including changes in our assessment of certain tax contingencies, valuation allowances, changes in tax law, outcomes of administrative audits, the impact of discrete items and the mix and size of earnings among our U.S. operations and international operations, which are subject to statutory rates that may be ~~higher~~different than the U.S. statutory rate.

As a result of the factors discussed above, consolidated net income increased ~~$4.4 billion and $6.0~~$0.2 billion for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31, 2019, respectively,~~April 30, 2020, when compared to the same ~~periods~~period in the previous fiscal year. Accordingly, diluted net income per common share attributable to Walmart was ~~$1.26 and $2.59~~$1.40 for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31, 2019, respectively,~~April 30, 2020, which represents an increase of ~~$1.55 and $2.16~~$0.07 when compared to the same ~~periods, respectively,~~period in the previous fiscal year.

Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased 12 basis points for the three months ended April 30, 2020 when compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year. The decrease for the three months ended April 30, 2020 was primarily due to our growth in comparable store sales described above, which was partially offset by approximately $0.1 billion of incremental costs related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including expanded sick and emergency leave pay, bonuses for store associates, and additional costs associated with outfitting our associates with masks and gloves and expanded cleaning practices.

As a result of the factors discussed above, operating income increased $0.1 billion for the three months ended April 30, 2020, when compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year. Because all of our international markets except Canada report on a one-month lag, the COVID-19 related impacts described above are expected to be more significant in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

(1) We believe the "Excluding Fuel" information is useful to investors because it permits investors to understand the effect of the Sam's Club segment's fuel sales on its results of operations, which are impacted by the volatility of fuel prices. Volatility in fuel prices may continue to impact the operating results of the Sam's Club segment in the future.

Net sales for the Sam's Club segment increased ~~$0.3~~$1.3 billion or ~~1.8% and $0.5 billion or 1.6%~~9.6% for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31, 2019, respectively,~~April 30, 2020 when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year. The increases were primarily due to comparable sales, including fuel, of 1.7% and 1.6% for the three and six months ended July 31, 2019, respectively. Sam's Club eCommerce sales positively contributed approximately 1.6% and 1.4% to comparable sales for the three and six months ended July 31, 2019, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in tobacco sales due to our decision to remove tobacco from certain locations.

~~Gross profit rate~~ increased 11 and 28 basis points for the three and six months ended July 31, 2019, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the previous fiscal year. For the three months ended July 31, 2019, the gross profit rate increased from a reduction in the sale of tobacco, which has lower margins, higher co-branded credit card income, and higher margins on fuel. These benefits were partially offset by price investments. For the six months ended July 31, 2019, the gross profit rate increased from a reduction in the sale of tobacco and higher co-branded credit card income, partially offset by increased eCommerce fulfillment and shipping costs and price investments.

~~Membership and other incom~~e ~~increased~~ ~~8.4%~~ ~~and 6.6% for the three and six months ended July 31, 2019, respectively when compared to the same periods~~period in the previous fiscal year.

In February and through March, strong traffic in clubs was driven by COVID-19 stock up trips. In April, traffic slowed as members consolidated trips and increased their average ticket size.

Gross profit rate increased 20 basis points for the three months ended April 30, 2020, when compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year. The gross profit rate increased from higher fuel margins and a reduction in tobacco sales. The increase in the gross profit rate was partially offset by investments in price, and higher eCommerce fulfillment costs.

Membership and other income increased 5.6% for the three months ended April 30, 2020, when compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

The strength and stability of our operations have historically supplied us with a significant source of liquidity. Our cash flows provided by operating activities, supplemented with our long-term debt and short-term borrowings, have been sufficient to fund our operations while allowing us to invest in activities that support the long-term growth of our operations. Generally, some or all of the remaining available cash flow has been used to fund the dividends on our common stock and share repurchases. WeIn the current environment,we believe our sources of liquidity will continue to be adequate to fund operations, finance our global investment and expansion activities, pay dividends and fund our share repurchases for the foreseeable future.

Cash Equivalents and Working Capital Deficit

Cash and cash equivalents were $14.9 billion and $9.3 billion at April 30, 2020 and ~~$15.8 billion~~2019, respectively. We maintained more cash at ~~July 31,~~April 30, 2020 compared to April 30, 2019 ~~and 2018, respectively.~~in order to provide us with enhanced financial flexibility due to the uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our working capital deficit was ~~$18.9 billion and $5.3~~$19.3 billion at ~~July 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.~~April 30, 2020, which increased when compared to $18.1 billion at April 30, 2019. We generally operate with a working capital deficit due to our efficient use of cash in funding operations, consistent access to the capital markets and returns provided to our shareholders in the form of payments of cash dividends and share repurchases. The working capital reductions at July 31, 2019 compared to July 31, 2018 were primarily due to the cash increase in the prior fiscal year that resulted from the debt issuance to fund a portion of the Flipkart purchase price as well as other general corporate purposes (the "Fiscal 2019 Debt Offering"). The reduction was supplemented by an increase in long-term debt due within one year. These working capital reductions were partially offset by a higher inventory level in the Walmart U.S. segment.

We use intercompany financing arrangements in an effort to ensure cash can be made available in the country in which it is needed with the minimum cost possible. Additionally, from time-to-time, we repatriate earnings and related cash from jurisdictions outside of the U.S. We are awaiting anticipated technical guidance from the IRS and the U.S. Treasury Department. We do not expect current local laws, other existing limitations or potential taxes on anticipated future repatriations of cash amounts held outside the U.S. to have a material effect on our overall liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

As of ~~July 31, 2019~~April 30, 2020 and January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, cash and cash equivalents of ~~$2.5~~$2.4 billion and ~~$2.8~~$2.3 billion, respectively, may not be freely transferable to the U.S. due to local laws or other restrictions. Of the ~~$2.5~~$2.4 billion at ~~July 31, 2019,~~April 30, 2020, approximately ~~$1.1~~$0.6 billion can only be accessed through dividends or intercompany financing arrangements subject to approval of the Flipkart minority shareholders; however, this cash is expected to be utilized to fund the operations of Flipkart.

Company Share Repurchase Program

From time to time, the Company repurchases shares of its common stock under share repurchase programs authorized by the Company's Board of Directors. All repurchases made during the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~July 31, 2019,~~April 30, 2020 were made under the current $20 billion share repurchase program approved in October 2017, which has no expiration date or other restrictions limiting the period over which the Company can make share repurchases. As of ~~July 31, 2019,~~April 30, 2020, authorization for ~~$7.7~~$5.0 billion of share repurchases remained under the share repurchase program. Any repurchased shares are constructively retired and returned to an unissued status.

~~Table of Contents~~

We regularly review share repurchase activity and consider several factors in determining when to execute share repurchases, including, among other things, current cash needs, capacity for leverage, cost of borrowings, our results of operations and the market price of our common stock. We anticipate that a majority of the ongoing share repurchase program will be funded through the Company's free cash flow. We are prudently managing our share repurchases in order to maintain a strong balance sheet in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.The following table provides, on a settlement date basis, ~~the number of shares repurchased, average price paid per~~ share ~~and total amount paid for share repurchases~~repurchase information for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~July 31, 2019~~April 30, 2020 and ~~2018:~~2019:

Capital Resources

We believe cash flows from operations, our current cash position and access to capital markets will continue to be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs, which include funding seasonal ~~buildups~~increases in merchandise inventories, our capital expenditures, acquisitions, dividend payments and share repurchases.

We have strong commercial paper and long-term debt ratings that have enabled and should continue to enable us to refinance our debt as it becomes due at favorable rates in the capital markets. We also have $15.0 billion in various committed lines of credit in the U.S., all of which currently remains undrawn. At ~~July 31, 2019,~~April 30, 2020, the ratings assigned to our commercial paper and rated series of our outstanding long-term debt were as follows:



Rating agency	Commercial paper	Long-term debt
Standard & Poor's	A-1+	AA
Moody's Investors Service	P-1	Aa2
Fitch Ratings	F1+	AA

Credit rating agencies review their ratings periodically and, therefore, the credit ratings assigned to us by each agency may be subject to revision at any time. Accordingly, we are not able to predict whether our current credit ratings will remain consistent

Table of Contents

over time. Factors that could affect our credit ratings include changes in our operating performance, the general economic environment, conditions in the retail industry, our financial position, including our total debt and capitalization, and changes in our business strategy. Any downgrade of our credit ratings by a credit rating agency could increase our future borrowing costs or impair our ability to access capital and credit markets on terms commercially acceptable to us. In addition, any downgrade of our current short-term credit ratings could impair our ability to access the commercial paper markets with the same flexibility that we have experienced historically, potentially requiring us to rely more heavily on more expensive types of debt financing. The credit rating agency ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold our commercial paper or debt securities. Each rating may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating organization and should be evaluated independently of any other rating. Moreover, each credit rating is specific to the security to which it applies.

Other Matters

In Note 76 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which is captioned "Contingencies" and appears in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the caption "Item 1. Financial Statements," we discuss, under the sub-caption ~~"FCPA Investigation and Related Matters,~~"ASDA Equal Value Claims," ~~the resolution of our~~certain existing ~~FCPA investigation and related matters~~employment claims against Asda including certain risks arising therefrom. In that Note 7~~, we also discuss, under the sub-caption "ASDA Equal Value Claims," certain existing employment claims against ASDA including certain risks arising therefrom. Further, in that~~ ~~Note 7~~6, we also discuss, under the sub-caption "~~National~~ Prescription Opiate Litigation and ~~Related~~Other Matters," the ~~National~~ Prescription Opiate Litigation and ~~related~~other matters, including certain risks arising therefrom. We also discuss various legal proceedings related to the ASDA Equal Value Claims, and ~~National~~the Prescription Opiate Litigation in Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under the caption "Item 1. Legal Proceedings," under the sub-caption ~~"II. Certain Other Proceedings.~~"I. Supplemental Information." The foregoing matters and other matters described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent contingent liabilities of the Company that may or may not result in the incurrence of a material liability by the Company upon their final resolution.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures ~~about~~About Market Risk

Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates or the market value of our investments. Our market risks at ~~July 31, 2019~~April 30, 2020 are similar to those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, ~~2019.~~2020. The information concerning market risk set forth in Part II, Item 7A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, ~~2019,~~2020, as filed with the SEC on March ~~28, 2019,~~20, 2020, under the caption "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," is hereby incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be timely disclosed, is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely fashion. In designing and evaluating such controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management is necessarily required to use judgment in evaluating controls and procedures. Also, we have investments in unconsolidated entities. Since we do not control or manage those entities, our controls and procedures with respect to those entities are substantially more limited than those we maintain with respect to our consolidated subsidiaries.

In the ordinary course of business, we review our internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our systems and processes to improve such controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, updating existing systems, automating manual processes, standardizing controls globally, migrating certain processes to our shared services organizations and increasing monitoring controls. These changes have not materially affected, and are not reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting and they allow us to continue to enhance our internal controls over financial reporting and ensure that they remain effective.

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms.

There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
