Wal-Mart Stores Inc. reclaimed the top spot among the Fortune 500 company list this year with $469 billion in annual revenue.
The retail giant elbowed Exxon Mobil aside who took the spot over last year. Exxon Mobil reported annual profits of $449 billion, some $20 billion behind Wal-Mart in 2012.
There were five other Arkansas companies that also made this year’s list.
