8:22 ET -- Walmart has lost its long-held title as the world's largest company by revenue. The retailer reports revenue of $713.5 billion for its year ended Jan. 31. That is just below Amazon, which earlier this month reported net sales of $716.9 billion in 2025. Amazon held the runner-up spot on last year's list of largest companies by revenue, but it grew its top line at a faster clip than Walmart over the past year. Amazon's annual sales grew 12% year-over-year, compared with Walmart's 4.7% growth rate. Walmart had held the title of the world's largest company by revenue since 2014. (connor.hart@wsj.com)
