Description: PSMT PriceSmart January 12, 2026
PriceSmart, Inc. (NASDAQ: PSMT) operates U.S.-style membership warehouse clubs across the United States, Central America, the Caribbean, and Colombia, offering a broad assortment of private-label and branded groceries, household goods, electronics, and ancillary services such as optical, pharmacy, and curbside pickup.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue reached approximately $5.5 billion, same-store sales grew about 5 % year-over-year, and the membership base surpassed 4.8 million members, with e-commerce now contributing roughly 12 % of total sales. The company maintains an operating margin near 6.5 % and a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio of roughly 2.2×, indicating moderate leverage.
Primary economic drivers include rising middle-class income and urbanization in Latin America, which boost discretionary spending, as well as currency fluctuations (particularly the Colombian peso) that can affect reported earnings. Additionally, the consumer-staples retail sector remains sensitive to inflation trends, making price-promotion effectiveness a critical performance lever.
