Item 8.01. Other Events.

On November 22, 2024, Walmart Inc. (the “Company”) was informed that Kathryn McLay, Executive Vice President, President and Chief Executive Officer, Walmart International, entered into a stock trading plan designed to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Plan”). Rule 10b5-1 permits officers and directors of public companies, who routinely become aware of material nonpublic information and therefore are unable to sell company securities until the information has been made public, to plan in advance for their liquidity or other needs by adopting, at a time when they are not in possession of material non-public information, a written plan providing for securities transactions to occur over specified future periods of time under specified conditions. Once an individual has entered into a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan, the individual has no discretion or control over whether or when transactions in Company securities will occur pursuant to the Plan.

Ms. McLay’s Plan provides for sales of Company securities as part of her long-term asset diversification, tax, and financial planning strategy and is in accordance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy. Under the terms of the Plan, Ms. McLay will sell 4,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on a specified day each month for a period of ten months, beginning March 2025, selling shares at prevailing market prices, continuing through December 2025. Accordingly, the maximum number of shares to be sold under the Plan is 40,000.

Ms. McLay continues to be subject to the Company’s stock ownership guidelines, under which she is required to hold Company stock equal in value to at least five times her base salary. Upon the conclusion of each monthly sale transaction under the Plan, Ms. McLay will continue to satisfy the requirements of the Company’s stock ownership guidelines.

Any transactions under the Plan will be disclosed publicly through Form 144 and Form 4 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission to the extent required.
