Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The Q4 report is significant because membership fee income, which made up about half of Costco's operating income in fiscal 2025, is losing its growth momentum. This trend follows the implementation of higher U.S. and Canada membership fees in September 2024.
