Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

1. Accounting Policies

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to interim financial statements. While these statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statement disclosures in our most recent Form 10-K.

We use the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements.

We operate as a single segment that is designed to enable guests to purchase products seamlessly in stores or through our digital channels. Nearly all of our revenues are generated in the U.S. The vast majority of our long-lived assets are located within the U.S.

Due to the seasonal nature of our business, quarterly revenues, expenses, earnings, and cash flows are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

2. Revenue

Merchandise sales represent the vast majority of our revenues. We also earn revenues from a variety of other sources, most notably credit card profit-sharing income from our arrangement with TD Bank Group (TD).

(a)Includes apparel for women, men, young adults, kids, toddlers, and babies, as well as jewelry, accessories, and shoes.

(b)Includes skin and bath care, cosmetics, hair care, oral care, deodorant, and shaving products.

(c)Includes dry and perishable grocery, including snacks, candy, beverages, deli, bakery, meat, produce and food service (primarily Starbucks) in our stores.

(d)Includes electronics, including video games and consoles, toys, sporting goods, entertainment, and luggage.

(e)Includes bed and bath, home décor, school/office supplies, storage, small appliances, kitchenware, greeting cards, party supplies, furniture, lighting, home improvement, and seasonal merchandise.

(f)Includes household cleaning, paper products, over-the-counter healthcare, vitamins and supplements, baby gear, and pet supplies.

Merchandise sales —We record almost all retail store revenues at the point of sale. Digitally originated sales may include shipping revenue and are recorded upon delivery to the guest or upon guest pickup at the store. Sales are recognized net of expected returns, which we estimate using historical return patterns and our expectation of future returns. As of August 3, 2024, February 3, 2024, and July 29, 2023, the accrual for estimated returns was $193 million, $170 million, and $177 million, respectively.

Revenue from Target gift card sales is recognized upon gift card redemption, which is typically within one year of issuance.

(a)Included in Accrued and Other Current Liabilities.

(b)Net of estimated breakage.

Other Revenue

Credit card profit sharing — We receive payments under a credit card program agreement with TD. Under the agreement, we receive a percentage of the profits generated by the Target Circle Credit Card and Target MasterCard receivables in exchange for performing account servicing and primary marketing functions. TD underwrites, funds, and owns Target Circle Credit Card and Target MasterCard receivables, controls risk management policies, and oversees regulatory compliance.

Other — Includes advertising revenue, commissions earned on third-party sales through Target.com, Shipt membership and service revenues, rental income, and other miscellaneous revenues.

3. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are reported in one of three levels reflecting the significant inputs used to determine fair value.

(a)The carrying amounts of certain other current assets, commercial paper, accounts payable, and certain accrued and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature.

(b)The fair value of debt is generally measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for the same or similar types of financial instruments and would be classified as Level 2. These amounts exclude commercial paper, fair value hedge adjustments, and lease liabilities.

4. Property and Equipment

We review long-lived assets for impairment when store performance expectations, events, or changes in circumstances—such as a decision to relocate or close a store, office, or distribution center, discontinue a project, or make significant software changes—indicate that the asset’s carrying value may not be recoverable. We recognized impairment charges of $36 million for the three and six months ended August 3, 2024, and $33 million for the three and six months ended July 29, 2023. These impairment charges are included in Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses.

5. Supplier Finance Programs

We have arrangements with several financial institutions to act as our paying agents to certain vendors. The arrangements also permit the financial institutions to provide vendors with an option, at our vendors' sole discretion, to sell their receivables from Target to the financial institutions. A vendor’s election to receive early payment at a discounted amount from the financial institutions does not change the amount that we must remit to the financial institutions or our payment date, which is up to 120 days from the invoice date.

We do not pay any fees or pledge any security to these financial institutions under these arrangements. The arrangements can be terminated by either party with notice ranging up to 120 days.

Our outstanding vendor obligations eligible for early payment under these arrangements totaled $3.7 billion, $3.4 billion, and $3.7 billion as of August 3, 2024, February 3, 2024, and July 29, 2023, respectively, and are included within Accounts Payable on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Our outstanding vendor obligations do not represent actual receivables sold by our vendors to the financial institutions, which have historically been lower.

6. Commercial Paper and Long-Term Debt

In July 2024, we repaid $1.0 billion of 3.5 percent unsecured fixed rate debt at maturity.

We obtain short-term financing from time to time under our commercial paper program. There wasno commercial paper outstanding at any time during the six months ended August 3, 2024. For the six months ended July 29, 2023, the maximum amount outstanding was $90 million, and the average daily amount outstanding was $2 million, at a weighted average annual interest rate of 4.9 percent. No balances were outstanding as of July 29, 2023.

7. Derivative Financial Instruments

Our derivative instruments consist of interest rate swaps used to mitigate interest rate risk. As a result, we have counterparty credit exposure to large global financial institutions, which we monitor on an ongoing basis. Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements provides the fair value and classification of these instruments.

In July 2024, an interest rate swap with a notional amount of $250 million matured.

We were party to interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $2.20 billion as of August 3, 2024, and $2.45 billion as of both February 3, 2024, and July 29, 2023. We pay a floating rate and receive a fixed rate under each of these agreements. All of the agreements are designated as fair value hedges, and all were considered to be perfectly effective under the shortcut method during the three and six months ended August 3, 2024, and July 29, 2023.

8. Share Repurchase

We periodically repurchase shares of our common stock under a board-authorized repurchase program through a combination of open market transactions, accelerated share repurchase (ASR) arrangements, and other privately negotiated transactions with financial institutions.

9. Pension Benefits

We provide pension plan benefits to eligible team members.
