Costco Wholesale Corporation (NASDAQ:COST, ETR:CTO) posted quarterly earnings and revenue that topped Wall Street estimates, as the membership-only warehouse retailer saw its sales jump 8% year-over-year. For the fiscal third quarter which ended on May 11, revenue was $63.2 billion, ahead of the $63.19 billion expected by analysts.

Recent results highlight steady high-single-digit growth, positive comps, and solid margins, even as new store impact slows. The expansion pace is steady but slowing, and new brands lag behind the core concept, raising questions about long-term growth drivers.
The warehouse-club chain is taking steps to reduce its exposure to tariffs by pulling orders forward and moving sourcing of private-label products to the regions where they are sold.
Costco Wholesale (COST) reported fiscal third-quarter earnings that narrowly topped analysts' projections as same-store sales grew more than expected.
