Costco on Thursday missed Wall Street's revenue expectations for its holiday quarter, despite reporting year-over-year sales growth and strong e-commerce gains. Costco's revenue for the quarter increased from $55.27 billion in the year-ago period. Fresh foods were up high single digits and nonfoods were up mid single digits. Ancillary businesses, which includes more service-related purchases like travel, were up by low single digits, he said. In the second quarter, Costco opened four new clubs, including three in the U.S. and one in Shenzhen, China.
