The Company reports net sales on a monthly basis based upon the 4-5-4 retail calendar.

Sales at the Wal-Mart Stores segment for the April four-week period overall were impacted negatively by weather conditions throughout most of the United States. An earlier Easter season this year also drove some seasonal sales into the March five-week reporting period, as reported last month.

Grocery continued to be stronger than general merchandise. Perishables such as bread, dairy, produce and frozen foods, were among the strengths in grocery. Pharmacy sales, driven by the $4 generic prescription offerings, continued to perform well. In the entertainment area, sales of flat panel TVs, digital audio products and laptop computers continue to demonstrate gains over the same period last year.

Sales in apparel, home and hard lines at Wal-Mart Stores were soft, as the cold weather affected traffic and seasonal merchandise. The product recalls by several manufacturers in the dog and cat food category contributed to a slowdown in pet supply sales during the April reporting period. The Company is resuming shipments of selected pet food products this week and expects a turnaround in the category sales by the end of May.

In Wal-Mart's monthly national survey among discount store consumers, concern about the rise in gas prices has increased steadily since January of this year. For March, the latest data available, the top three concerns among discount store consumers, as well as regular Wal-Mart shoppers, were money/income/finances, the cost of living and gas prices.
