Walmart Inc. is cutting its earnings targets for the year as part of its purchase of a majority stake in Flipkart Group.

The world's largest retailer said it expects to earn between $2.65 and $2.80 a share in the year ending Jan. 31, or between $4.65 and $4.80 a share on an adjusted basis. The company had expected earnings between $2.90 and $3.05 a share, or $4.90 to $5.05, adjusted.

The company said its prior guidance didn't include the impact from the Flipkart deal. Walmart in May agreed to take control of Flipkart, India's largest e-commerce company, for $16 billion.

Walmart maintained its forecast for sales this year. In the second quarter, quarterly sales for Walmart accelerated at the fastest rate in more than a decade.
