Dollar Tree, Inc. Increases Share Repurchase Authorization to $2.5 Billion

Dollar Tree, Inc. (NASDAQ: DLTR) today reported that its Board of Directors has increased the Company’s share repurchase authorization by $1.05 billion to an aggregate amount of $2.5 billion, including approximately $1.45 billion available for repurchases under the Board’s previous repurchase authorization approved on March 2, 2021.

“Delivering value to our customers and shareholders is our top priority. We are committed to a disciplined capital allocation strategy that balances returning capital to our shareholders and investing in our business for growth,” stated Michael Witynski, President and Chief Executive Officer. “In fiscal 2021, we have repurchased $950 million of shares. Over the past several years, we have paid down more than $4 billion in debt and returned to an investment grade rating. As a result, with the meaningful free cash flow from our business, we expect to maintain share repurchasing as an important part of our capital allocation strategy.”

The Board’s authorization permits the Company to make purchases of its Common Stock from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, subject to market and other conditions, up to the aggregate amount authorized by the Board. The Board’s authorization has no expiration date.
