This page asks whether Costco Wholesale Corp (COST) looks expensive on cached numbers — not a short thesis.
Latest reported COST revenue for 2025-08-31 was $275.24B. Net income was $8.10B. Revenue was up 8.2% from 2024-09-01 to 2025-08-31. COST currently screens at market cap $430.32B and trailing P/E 54.9.
COST currently screens at market cap $430.32B and trailing P/E 54.9. A high multiple can be growth prepaid or a bubble. The filing has to explain the gap.
If the next COST 8-K cuts growth or raises capex, this “expensive” read gets worse. Until then the SEC page is the source.
