(the “Company”) reached a settlement agreement to resolve litigation related to credit card interchange fees in which the Company was a plaintiff, resulting in a one-time pre-tax benefit of approximately $240 million, net of associated legal fees, which the Company expects will be reflected in its third quarter fiscal 2026 results.

Worry ifQ3 membership fee income grows less than 7% year over year, or reported member count falls below 8.5 million.

Worry ifQ3 merchandise gross margin rate falls more than 20 basis points year over year.
Less concerning ifQ3 merchandise gross margin rate is flat or higher year over year.
Why it matters: Sales excluding gas rose 3.1% in Q2, above the full-year plan. The next report tests if that pace lasts.
Supportive ifQ3 comparable club sales, excluding gas, rise at least 3.0% year over year.
Worry ifQ3 comparable club sales, excluding gas, rise less than 2.0% year over year.

Worry ifOn November 20, adjusted EPS, excluding the settlement, is below $1.10. Or management cuts its $4.60 to $4.80 full-year range.
