DOLLAR TREE INC

Note 8 -Supply Chain Finance Program

During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, we implemented a supply chain finance program, administered through a financial institution, which provides participating suppliers with the opportunity to finance payments due from us. Participating suppliers may, at their sole discretion, elect to finance one or more invoices of ours prior to their scheduled due dates at a discounted price with the financial institution.

Our obligations to our suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by the supplier’s decision to finance amounts under these arrangements. As such, the outstanding payment obligations under our supply chain financing program are included within “Accounts payable” in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and within “Cash flows from operating activities” in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Our outstanding payment obligations under this program were $60.4 million and $11.8 million as of May 4, 2024 and February 3, 2024, respectively.

Note 9 -Subsequent Events

Subsequent to the quarter ended May 4, 2024, we announced that we had initiated a formal review of strategic alternatives for the Family Dollar business segment, which could include among others, a potential sale, spin-off or other disposition of the business. There is not a set deadline or definitive timetable for the completion of the strategic alternatives review process, and there can be no assurance that this process will result in any transaction or particular outcome.
