| Schema note | Standard retail template. Costco's revenue is net sales plus membership fees, and its cost line is merchandise costs; Costco does not present a gross profit line, so none is shown here. Results are also broken out by Costco's three reportable segments (United States, Canada, Other International), whose total revenue includes membership fees and sums to the consolidated figure. |

| Fiscal calendar note | Costco uses a 52/53-week fiscal year ending on the Sunday closest to August 31. Fiscal 2026, 2025 and 2024 were each 52 weeks. Its fiscal quarters are 12, 12, 12 and 16 weeks long, so the fourth quarter is a 16-week period. Compare a fourth quarter only with another fourth quarter, and a third quarter with another third quarter; a 16-week quarter is not comparable with a 12-week one. |

- Note, FY2026. From the FY2026 10-K (accession 0000909832-26-000093). Its fourth-quarter results release (accession 0000909832-26-000084), marked subject to reclassification, printed operating cash flow of $15,825 million, net cash used in investing activities of $6,386 million and other investing activities of $26 million for fiscal 2026; the 10-K, which this record follows, prints $15,817 million, $6,378 million and $34 million.
- Note, FY2025. From the comparative columns of the FY2026 10-K (accession 0000909832-26-000093). The 10-K reclassified the fiscal 2025 balance sheet to show the $75 million current portion of long-term debt on its own line (other current liabilities $6,514 million); the FY2026 third-quarter 10-Q showed the same date with that amount inside other current liabilities ($6,589 million). This record follows the 10-K.
- Note, FY2024. From the comparative columns of the FY2026 10-K (accession 0000909832-26-000093), which presents income statements, cash flows and segment results for fiscal 2024 but no balance sheet at September 1, 2024. Fiscal 2024 dividends included a special dividend of $15 per share, a payment of $6,655 million, which is why dividends declared ($8,589 million) and paid ($9,041 million) were far above other years.

- Source description, Q4 FY2026 (16 weeks). Derived: fiscal 2026 full year (Form 10-K) less the 36 weeks ended May 10, 2026 (Form 10-Q); per-share amounts and share counts from the fourth-quarter results release furnished on Form 8-K on 2026-09-24

- Source description, Q3 FY2025 (12 weeks). Fiscal 2026 third-quarter Form 10-Q comparative columns, filed 2026-06-03
- Derivation, Q4 FY2026 (16 weeks). Every income statement, cash flow and segment amount for this 16-week quarter is the fiscal 2026 full-year figure in the FY2026 10-K (accession 0000909832-26-000093) less the 36 weeks ended May 10, 2026 in the third-quarter 10-Q (accession 0000909832-26-000051). Each income statement difference agrees exactly with the 16-week column of the fourth-quarter results release furnished on Form 8-K on September 24, 2026 (accession 0000909832-26-000084, Exhibit 99.1). Earnings per share and weighted-average share counts cannot be obtained by subtraction and are taken from that release. The release states that this quarter's results include a non-recurring benefit of $0.15 per diluted share from IEEPA tariff refunds received in the quarter, less partial reinvestment of those refunds in increased member values. The release prints no 16-week cash flow statement or segment table, so the cash flow and segment amounts here are derived only. The balance sheet at August 30, 2026 is in the FY2026 annual entry.
- Derivation, Q4 FY2025 (16 weeks). Every income statement, cash flow and segment amount for this 16-week quarter is the fiscal 2025 full-year figure in the comparative column of the FY2026 10-K (accession 0000909832-26-000093) less the 36 weeks ended May 11, 2025 in the comparative column of the third-quarter 10-Q (accession 0000909832-26-000051). Each income statement difference agrees exactly with the prior-year 16-week column of the fourth-quarter results release furnished on Form 8-K on September 24, 2026 (accession 0000909832-26-000084, Exhibit 99.1), from which earnings per share and weighted-average share counts are taken. Cash flow and segment amounts are derived only. The balance sheet at August 31, 2025 is in the FY2025 annual entry.
- Note, Q3 FY2026 (12 weeks). Income statement, balance sheet at May 10, 2026, segment results and the dividend declared in the quarter are from the third-quarter 10-Q (accession 0000909832-26-000051). The 10-Q presents cash flows only for the 36 weeks to date, which are in the year-to-date block; no 12-week cash flow figures are shown. Note 4 of the 10-Q reports no current portion of long-term debt at May 10, 2026, so total debt is the long-term debt line alone.
- Note, Q3 FY2025 (12 weeks). Income statement, segment results and the dividend declared in the quarter are from the comparative columns of the third-quarter 10-Q (accession 0000909832-26-000051). No balance sheet is shown: the 10-Q's comparative balance sheet is at August 31, 2025, not May 11, 2025. The 10-Q presents cash flows only for the 36 weeks to date.

- Note, First 36 weeks of fiscal 2026 (ended May 10, 2026). Costco's fiscal 2026 is complete, so the FY2026 annual entry is the current full-year and trailing-twelve-month view; no separate trailing-twelve-month block is presented. This block keeps the 36-week figures from the third-quarter 10-Q (accession 0000909832-26-000051), which are the basis on which the 16-week fourth quarter is derived.

Notes
- Coverage: fiscal years 2026, 2025 and 2024 (income statements, cash flows and segment results) and balance sheets at August 30, 2026 and August 31, 2025 come from the FY2026 Form 10-K (accession 0000909832-26-000093, filed 2026-10-07). The third quarters of fiscal 2026 and 2025 (12 weeks each), the balance sheet at May 10, 2026 and the first 36 weeks of each year come from the FY2026 third-quarter Form 10-Q (accession 0000909832-26-000051, filed 2026-06-03). The 16-week fourth quarters of fiscal 2026 and 2025 are derived by subtracting the 10-Q's 36-week figures from the 10-K's full-year figures.
- The first and second fiscal quarters are not shown. Neither the 10-K nor the third-quarter 10-Q presents full financial statements for those quarters (the 10-Q's statements of equity do print balances at the start of the third quarter), so this record holds the third and fourth quarters only for each year.
- The fourth quarter is 16 weeks long and the third quarter 12 weeks; the two are not comparable with each other. Fourth-quarter earnings per share and share counts come from the fourth-quarter results release furnished on Form 8-K on September 24, 2026 (accession 0000909832-26-000084, Exhibit 99.1).
- Total debt is the current portion of long-term debt plus long-term debt excluding the current portion, as printed on the balance sheet; it excludes operating and finance lease liabilities.
- Free cash flow is derived here as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property and equipment. Costco does not report this measure in these filings.
- Sign convention: capital expenditures, dividends paid, share repurchases and interest expense are stored as positive amounts. Net cash from investing and financing activities is signed, with a negative figure meaning a net use of cash. Accumulated other comprehensive income is negative because it is an accumulated loss.
- Dividends declared were $5.54 per share ($2,458 million) in fiscal 2026 and $4.92 per share ($2,183 million) in fiscal 2025. In April 2026 the Board raised the quarterly dividend from $1.30 to $1.47 per share.
- Weighted-average share counts are stated in shares; the filings print them in thousands. Shares outstanding are from the statements of equity.
- No stock split, currency translation or depositary-share adjustment applies: Costco reports in US dollars, is a domestic filer, and its common stock trades directly.
Uncertainties
- The fourth-quarter cash flow figures are derived and are not printed in any filing: the 10-K presents only full-year cash flows, and neither the 10-Q nor the fourth-quarter results release presents a 16-week cash flow statement. Fiscal 2026 full-year operating and investing cash flows differ by $8 million between the results release ($15,825 million and $6,386 million used) and the 10-K ($15,817 million and $6,378 million used); this record follows the 10-K, giving fourth-quarter operating cash flow of $4,684 million, against $4,692 million on the release's figures. Neither filing says whether the 36-week figures in the 10-Q would also be affected.
- The 10-K states that the fiscal 2025 and 2024 cash flow statements were reclassified to conform with the current presentation. The fiscal 2025 fourth-quarter cash flow figures subtract the 10-Q's 36-week column, which uses the earlier presentation (for example, it does not show deferred income taxes on a separate line), from the 10-K's reclassified full-year column. Fiscal 2025 operating cash flow of $13,335 million is the same in the 10-K and in the fourth-quarter results release.
- No 12-week cash flow figures are available for the third quarters: the 10-Q and the third-quarter results release present cash flows for the 36 weeks to date only.
- First- and second-quarter results are outside this record, as neither filing read here presents full financial statements for them.

How this page was built
This page was built from three of Costco Wholesale Corporation's own filings with the SEC, read one at a time. Nothing on it is taken from a pre-tagged dataset, a data vendor or another website. The figures are on the company's own fiscal calendar and in actual dollars, as the filings report them. Where the filings do not support a figure, the record says so instead of reporting a zero; this period names four such gaps.
A single company files thousands of pages with the SEC in a year, and no two companies file them the same way, so the reading and the assembly here are done by AI rather than by rules that break on the differences. Every pass is then audited back against the filings it came from before the page is published, and anything the filings do not support is left out and named rather than filled in. AI can still make mistakes. That is why the accession numbers are printed: the filing is the authority, and this page is a route to it.
