Cash and cash equivalents increased to $19,628 million at May 3, 2026 from $16,178 million at November 2, 2025, primarily due to $18,753 million in net cash provided by operating activities, offset in part by $8,450 million of stock repurchases and $6,178 million of dividend payments.
Interest expense was $1,577 million and $1,642 million for the two fiscal quarters ended May 3, 2026 and May 4, 2025, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to an overall reduction in outstanding debt balances and debt refinancing activities.
During the two fiscal quarters ended May 3, 2026 and May 4, 2025, we repurchased and retired 25 million and 16 million shares for $8,450 million and $2,450 million, respectively.
As of May 3, 2026, $10.1 billion of the authorized amount remained available for repurchase.
