"Annual figures for fiscal 2025, 2024 and 2023 come from the fiscal 2025 Form 10-K (accession 0001104659-26-032325). That filing presents three years of income statement and cash flow but balance sheets for January 30, 2026 and January 31, 2025 only, so fiscal 2023 carries no balance sheet.",
"Quarterly figures for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 (13 weeks ended July 31, 2026) and the second quarter of fiscal 2025 (13 weeks ended August 1, 2025), and the 26-week year-to-date figures, come from the Form 10-Q for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 (accession 0001104659-26-101932).",
"All three fiscal years and both quarters were 52-week and 13-week periods respectively, so no period contains an extra week.",
"The statements print dollar amounts and share counts in thousands; they are stated here in actual dollars and actual shares. Per-share amounts are in dollars as printed.",
"Operating profit is the income statement's 'Operating profit' line: net sales less cost of goods sold less selling, general and administrative expenses.",
"Other (income) expense of $8.5 million in fiscal 2025 is the pretax loss on the December 2025 redemption of $550.0 million of 4.625% senior notes due November 2027, which the fiscal 2025 Form 10-K says is reflected in that line. The line is zero in fiscal 2024 and 2023 and does not appear in the Form 10-Q income statements for the second quarter or the 26 weeks of either fiscal 2026 or fiscal 2025; because the redemption fell after August 1, 2025, the loss is included in the trailing-twelve-month figures.",
"Total debt is current portion of long-term obligations plus long-term obligations as printed on the balance sheet; it ties to the total of current and long-term obligations in the debt note ($4,580,282 thousand at January 30, 2026 and $4,570,815 thousand at July 31, 2026). It excludes operating lease liabilities, which are shown separately.",
"Free cash flow is calculated here as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. It is not a figure Dollar General reports in these filings.",
"Capital expenditures, repayments of long-term obligations and cash dividends paid are shown as negative numbers because they are cash outflows, as the cash flow statements print them.",
"Shares outstanding are period-end common shares from the statements of shareholders' equity. The Form 10-Q cover reports 220,616,790 shares outstanding on August 25, 2026.",
"Same-store sales is Dollar General's own key performance indicator (stores open at least 13 full fiscal months that remain open at period end), as printed in the MD&A of each filing. The store count at January 30, 2026 (20,893) is from Note 1 of the fiscal 2025 Form 10-K; the count at July 31, 2026 (21,148) and the 126 new stores opened in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 are from the MD&A of the Form 10-Q; 26-week new store openings (321 and 360) are from the 10-Q's store counts table.",
"Net sales by category (consumables, seasonal, home products, apparel) is from the segment reporting note of each filing. Dollar General has one reportable segment.",
"The balance sheet for July 31, 2026 is from the Form 10-Q. That filing does not print a balance sheet for August 1, 2025, so the year-ago quarter carries only total shareholders' equity and shares outstanding (from the statement of shareholders' equity) and cash and cash equivalents (from the end-of-period line of the cash flow statement).",
"The Form 10-Q's cash flow statement covers 26 weeks only, so cash flow figures appear in the year-to-date and trailing-twelve-month blocks and not in the quarterly entries.",
"Trailing-twelve-month figures (52 weeks ended July 31, 2026) are calculated as fiscal 2025 plus the 26 weeks ended July 31, 2026 less the 26 weeks ended August 1, 2025. Trailing-twelve-month diluted earnings per share ($7.70) and dividends per share ($2.36) are calculated the same way from the per-share amounts printed in each period, not from a weighted share count; no trailing-twelve-month share count is given.",
"Dollar General repurchased no shares of its common stock in fiscal 2025 or in the 26 weeks ended July 31, 2026."
],
"uncertainties": [
"Trailing-twelve-month diluted earnings per share is the sum of per-share amounts from three different periods, each computed on its own weighted share count, so it can differ by a cent or so from a figure computed on a single twelve-month share count.",
"No 13-week cash flow figures are reported for either second quarter, because the Form 10-Q presents cash flows only for the 26-week periods."

"summary": "Dollar General reported net sales of $11.29 billion for Q2 FY2026, the quarter ended July 31, 2026, up 5.2% from a year earlier, as same-store sales rose 3.5% on both more customer traffic and a higher average transaction. Net income was $550.32 million, up 33.8%, and diluted earnings per share were $2.48, against $1.86 a year earlier. Part of the gain came from refunds of tariffs invalidated by the Supreme Court, a substantial portion of which Dollar General reinvested in lower prices and promotions.",
