Dec 12 (Reuters) - Costco Wholesale ( COST ) slightly
beat Wall Street expectations for first-quarter revenue on

chain to shop for everything from food to home furnishings for
the holiday season.
The company's quarterly revenue rose to $62.15 billion, from
$57.80 billion a year earlier. Analysts on average were
expecting $62.08 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG.
