Walmart's digital momentum signals long-term profit growth: Morgan Stanley
-- Walmart's transformation into a digital retail powerhouse has reshaped its earnings trajectory, according to a detailed e-commerce 'Block' analysis from Morgan Stanley. In a note to clients this week, the firm highlighted how Walmart (NYSE:WMT) has evolved over the past decade 'from an old-economy brick-and-mortar retailer being disenfranchised by AMZN' into 'an eCommerce, Retail Media and supply chain disruptor.' Morgan Stanley breaks Walmart's digital evolution into three distinct phases: a 'modest growth' stage from 2009 to 2012; a heavy investment phase from 2013 to 2019; and the current era marked by narrowing e-commerce losses and operating margin expansion. 'E-commerce losses have narrowed to the point of near-breakeven,' analysts noted, as economies of scale, catchment area densification, and the ramp-up of high-margin Membership and Advertising revenue streams take hold. According to Morgan Stanley, the eCommerce 'Block' includes three synergistic revenue sources: online merchandise sales (1P and 3P), Walmart Connect advertising, and Walmart+ membership fees. Though online merchandise is still 'loss-making,' Morgan Stanley sees 'narrowing losses' as scale lowers delivery costs. Advertising income is estimated at ~3.5% of GMV, with '~70% flow through to Adjusted Operating Income,' and Walmart+ now boasts ~15 million subscribers contributing ~$1.3 billion in revenue for 2024. With these elements working together, Morgan Stanley estimates Walmart's U.S. e-commerce unit could generate ~$6 billion in incremental adjusted operating income over the next three years, with margins potentially in the '~10% to ~12% range.' Digital GMV has surged from $59 billion in 2022 to $89 billion in 2024, while ad revenue has increased from $1.9 billion to $3.2 billion over the same period. 'Walmart's digital flywheel supports long-term earnings growth,' Morgan Stanley concluded, forecasting continued strength as high-margin revenue streams outgrow digital sales.

Next, we will enhance dialogue and coordination with our African partners, to ensure mutual understanding and jointly shape our cooperation approach,' Guo Ning, deputy director of Hunan's provincial department of commerce, told Haiwainet in an interview. 'China is our strong friend, and we share a vision of mutual respect and mutual success. I want to thank the Chinese government for even setting up a permanent Zambian Pavilion in China where Zambian businesses, products, and services are showcased. This is important to us because it gives us a dependable presence in China to conduct trade, promote business, and position Zambia as Africa's rising hub for trade and investment,' Chipoka Mulenga, Minister of Commerce, Trade and Industry of Zambia, told Haiwainet. Jointly organized by the Hunan Provincial Government and China's Ministry of Commerce, this year's event coincides with the 25th anniversary of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) and marks the commencement of implementing outcomes from the 2024 FOCAC Beijing Summit. Since FOCAC's inception, China-Africa trade has achieved successive milestones, with China maintaining its position as Africa's largest trading partner for 16 consecutive years.
