Shares of membership-only discount retailer Costco (NASDAQCOST)
fell 6.6% in the morning session after the company reported weak fourth quarter results: its operating margin showed no expansion year on year, and its EPS missed. The standout result for the quarter was a 9.1% increase in sales, fueled by an 8.3% gain in U.S. comparable sales and a strong 20.9% surge in e-commerce sales. International markets saw weaker gains, with Canada up just 4.6% and other regions lagging further behind.
Looking ahead, Costco's strong e-commerce momentum and resilient U.S. sales should position it well against broader retail headwinds. Overall, this was a mixed quarter, given the limited profit gains.
