DOLLAR TREE, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
Unless otherwise stated, references to “we,” “us,” and “our” in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q refer to Dollar Tree, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 29, 2022. The results of operations for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending January 28, 2023.
In our opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments (including those of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position as of October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 and the results of our operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The January 29, 2022 balance sheet information was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date.
Note 2 - Contingencies
We are defendants in legal proceedings including the class, collective, representative and large cases described below as well as individual claims in arbitration. We will vigorously defend ourselves in these matters. We do not believe that any of these matters will, individually or in the aggregate, have a material effect on our business or financial condition. We cannot give assurance, however, that one or more of these matters will not have a material effect on our results of operations for the quarter or year in which they are reserved or resolved.
We assess our legal proceedings monthly and reserves are established if a loss is probable and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. For matters that have settled, we reserve the estimated settlement amount even if the settlement has not been approved by the court. Many, if not substantially all, of our legal proceedings are subject to significant uncertainties and, therefore, determining the likelihood of a loss and the measurement of any loss can be complex and subject to judgment. With respect to legal proceedings where we have determined that a loss is reasonably possible but not probable, we are unable to estimate the amount or range of the reasonably possible loss due to the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of and uncertainties regarding legal proceedings. Our assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but that may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause us to change those estimates and assumptions. Management’s assessment of legal proceedings could change because of future determinations or the discovery of facts which are not presently known. Accordingly, the ultimate costs of resolving these proceedings may be substantially higher or lower than currently estimated.
Active Matters
On February 11, 2022, the FDA issued Form 483 observations primarily regarding rodent infestation at Family Dollar’s West Memphis, Arkansas distribution center (“DC 202”) and the related sale and distribution of adulterated product, as well as other processes and procedures that require remediation. In connection therewith, we initiated a voluntary retail-level product recall of FDA and U.S. Department of Agriculture-regulated products stored and shipped from DC 202 from January 1, 2021 through February 18, 2022 (the “Recall”), temporarily closed DC 202 for extensive cleaning, temporarily closed the affected stores to permit the removal and destruction of inventory subject to the Recall, ceased sales of relevant inventory subject to the Recall, permanently ceased the shipment of FDA-regulated products from DC 202, and initiated corrective actions. In June 2022, we stopped shipping to stores from DC 202 and are decommissioning the facility. On November 9, 2022 we received an FDA Warning Letter (“Warning Letter”) in connection with the DC 202 inspection. The conditions and issues detailed in the Warning Letter are generally the same as those described in the Form 483 observations or were otherwise observed during the inspection. The Warning Letter acknowledged certain remedial actions we have taken in response to the Form 483 observations, including conducting the voluntary recall and decommissioning the facility. We are taking this matter extremely seriously and continue to cooperate with the FDA.
Since February 22, 2022, Family Dollar has received 14 putative class action complaints primarily related to issues associated with DC 202 described above. The lawsuits are proceeding in federal court in Tennessee using the federal court’s multi-district litigation process. An amended consolidated complaint seeking class action status was filed October 17, 2022 alleging violations of the Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Alabama and Missouri consumer protection laws, breach of warranty, negligence, misrepresentation, deception and unjust enrichment related to the sale of products that may be contaminated by virtue of rodent infestation and other unsanitary conditions. Plaintiffs seek damages, attorney fees and costs, punitive damages and the replacement of, or refund of, money paid to purchase the relevant products, and any other legal relief available for their claims (in each case in
10

Table of Contents
unspecified amounts), including equitable and injunctive relief. We have filed a motion to dismiss the amended consolidated complaint and a ruling on the motion by the court is expected in early 2023.
On March 1, 2022, a federal grand jury subpoena was issued to us by the Eastern District of Arkansas requesting the production of information, documents and records pertaining to pests, sanitation, compliance with law, and the issues described above. We are cooperating with the subpoena and the related investigation; however, no assurance can be given as to the timing or outcome of this matter.
On April 28, 2022, the State of Arkansas filed a complaint in state court alleging violations of the Arkansas Deceptive Trade Practices Act, gross negligence and negligence, strict liability in tort, unjust enrichment and civil conspiracy related to the sale of products that may have been contaminated by virtue of rodent infestation and other unsanitary conditions. The State of Arkansas is seeking injunctive relief, restitution, disgorgement, damages, civil penalties, punitive damages and suspension or revocation of our authorization to do business in Arkansas.
The Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has alleged that Dollar Tree improperly sold certain topically applied, over the counter products manufactured by certain Chinese factories that were on an import “alert” restriction issued by the FDA. We believe we have made significant improvements in our processes in our supply chain and continue to monitor these for compliance.
From time to time, various federal and state regulators such as the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the state equivalents along with state-level hazardous waste and product regulators have found violations of applicable regulations at Dollar Tree stores and Family Dollar stores and assessed penalties relating to the violations. For those periods in which this occurs, pending resolution of the matters, we record the associated estimated liabilities in the financial statements.
California state court lawsuits have been filed against Dollar Tree and Family Dollar for similar employment-related claims brought under the Private Attorney General Act (“PAGA”). These cases allege that we failed to provide non-exempt associates with compliant rest and meal breaks, suitable seating, overtime pay, minimum wages, reimbursement of business expenses, and properly calculated sick leave pay, as well as other potential labor code violations. The plaintiffs generally seek civil penalties and attorneys’ fees and costs.
Five personal injury lawsuits are pending in state court in Illinois, New York, Massachusetts, Texas, and New Jersey against Dollar Tree, Family Dollar or both alleging that certain talc products that were sold in the past caused cancer. The plaintiffs seek compensatory, punitive and exemplary damages, damages for loss of consortium, and attorneys’ fees and costs. Although we have been able to resolve previous talc lawsuits against us without material loss to the company, given the inherent uncertainties of litigation there can be no assurances regarding the outcome of pending or future cases. Future costs to litigate these cases are not known but may be material, and it is uncertain whether our costs will be covered by insurance. In addition, although we have indemnification rights against our vendors in several of these cases, it is uncertain whether the vendors will have the financial ability to carry out their obligations.
Since August 2022, four personal injury cases have been filed in federal court in California and Minnesota against Dollar Tree, Family Dollar, or both, on behalf of minors alleging that their mothers took acetaminophen while pregnant, that the acetaminophen interfered with fetal development such that plaintiffs were born with autism and/or ADHD, and that we knew or should have known of the danger, had a duty to warn and failed to include appropriate warnings on the product labels. The plaintiffs seek compensatory, punitive and/or exemplary damages, restitution and disgorgement, economic damages, and attorneys’ fees and costs. These cases, along with other cases against many other defendants, have been consolidated in multi-district court litigation in the Southern District of New York.
Since September 2022, five personal injury cases have been filed in state court in Pennsylvania against both Dollar Tree and Family Dollar alleging that both sold Zantac and generic ranitidine products containing N-Nitrosodimethylamine, which is classified by the FDA as a probable carcinogen. The plaintiffs seek compensatory, exemplary and punitive damages and costs. The five cases along with similar cases against other companies filed in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas have been consolidated. Under the court’s rules, one long form master complaint was filed in a process that is similar to multi-district litigation in federal court. Dollar Tree and Family Dollar have not been named as defendants in the long form master complaint but could still be named in short form complaints that may be filed. In addition, in February 2021, as part of a multi-district litigation in the Southern District of Florida, master personal injury and consumer protection class complaints were filed against Zantac manufacturers and retailers, including Dollar Tree and Family Dollar. While Dollar Tree and Family Dollar have been dismissed from both master complaints, those dismissals are currently being appealed. We believe we will be indemnified by our suppliers with respect to these proceedings.
Since January 2021, four state-wide consumer class actions have been filed against Family Dollar in Georgia, Alabama, Florida, and Tennessee for breach of warranty based on the allegation that the coffee we sold was mislabeled because the canisters did not contain enough coffee to make the number of cups of coffee stated on the label. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages.

11

Table of Contents
Resolved Matters
In August 2020 and July 2021, consumer class actions were filed against Family Dollar in New York and Illinois, respectively, alleging Smoked Almonds sold by us are mislabeled because the almonds do not go through a smoking process but rather acquire their smoky taste through the use of smoked flavoring. These actions alleged violation of consumer protection laws, negligent misrepresentation, breach of warranties, fraud and unjust enrichment. The New York and Illinois cases were dismissed with prejudice on March 21, 2022 and April 28, 2022, respectively.
Note 3 - Fair Value Measurements
As required, financial assets and liabilities are classified in the fair value hierarchy in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (e.g., when there is evidence of impairment). We did not record any material impairment charges during the 13 or 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 or October 30, 2021.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash and Accounts payable as reported in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. The carrying value of our Revolving Credit Facility approximates its fair value.
The aggregate fair values and carrying values of our long-term borrowings were as follows:

Stock options and other stock-based awards of 2.3 million shares and 3.0 million shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, respectively, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Stock options and other stock-based awards of 0.1 million shares and 1.1 million shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021, respectively, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
Note 5 - Stock-Based Compensation
For a discussion of our stock-based compensation plans, refer to “Note 10 - Stock-Based Compensation Plans” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 29, 2022. Stock-based compensation expense was $90.8 million and $63.1 million during the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, respectively.
Restricted Stock
We issue service-based RSUs to employees and officers and issue PSUs to certain of our officers. We recognize expense based on the estimated fair value of the RSUs or PSUs granted over the requisite service period, which is generally three years, on a straight-line basis or a shorter period based on the retirement eligibility of the grantee. The fair value of RSUs and PSUs is determined based on our closing stock price on the grant date.

Stock Options
Stock options are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
On March 19, 2022, we granted a one-time award of options to purchase 2,252,587 shares of our common stock with a fair value of $135.6 million to the Executive Chairman of the Board. The grant of options was subject to the terms and conditions of a five-year Executive Agreement with the Executive Chairman. The option award has a ten-year term and is scheduled to vest in equal installments on each of the first five anniversaries of the grant date, subject to the Executive Chairman’s continued employment with the company through each vesting date. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model for this award are as follows:
Expected term (in years)6.5
Expected stock price volatility34.1 %
Dividend yield %
Risk-free interest rate2.15 %
The simplified method was used to estimate the expected term of the options due to our lack of historical option exercise experience and the “plain vanilla” characteristics of the option award. The simplified method results in an expected term equal to the average of the weighted average time-to-vesting and the contractual life of the options. The expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock over a period matching the expected term of the options granted. The dividend yield reflects that we have never paid cash dividends. The risk-free interest rate represents the yield curve in effect at the time of grant for U.S. Treasury zero-coupon securities with maturities that approximate the expected term of the options.

Note 7 - Segments and Disaggregated Revenue
We operate a chain of more than 16,200 retail discount stores in 48 states and five Canadian provinces. Our operations are conducted in two reporting business segments: Dollar Tree and Family Dollar. We define our segments as those operations whose results our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) regularly reviews to analyze performance and allocate resources.
The Dollar Tree segment is the leading operator of discount variety stores offering merchandise predominantly at the fixed price point of $1.25. The Dollar Tree segment includes our operations under the “Dollar Tree” and “Dollar Tree Canada” brands, 15 distribution centers in the United States and two distribution centers in Canada.
The Family Dollar segment operates a chain of general merchandise retail discount stores providing consumers with a selection of competitively-priced merchandise in convenient neighborhood stores. The Family Dollar segment consists of our operations under the “Family Dollar” brand and 10 distribution centers. The Family Dollar segment Operating income includes advertising revenue, which is a component of Other revenue in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated income statements.

Table of Contents
We measure the results of our segments using, among other measures, each segment’s net sales, gross profit and operating income. The CODM reviews these metrics for each of our reporting segments. We may revise the measurement of each segment’s operating income, as determined by the information regularly reviewed by the CODM. If the measurement of a segment changes, prior period amounts and balances are reclassified to be comparable to the current period’s presentation. Corporate, support and Other consists primarily of store support center costs that are considered shared services and therefore these selling, general and administrative costs are excluded from our two reporting business segments. These costs include operating expenses for our store support center and the results of operations for our Summit Pointe property in Chesapeake, Virginia.

Overview
We are a leading operator of more than 16,200 retail discount stores and we conduct our operations in two reporting segments. Our Dollar Tree segment is the leading operator of discount variety stores offering merchandise predominantly at the fixed price of $1.25. Our Family Dollar segment operates general merchandise retail discount stores providing consumers with a selection of competitively-priced merchandise in convenient neighborhood stores.
Our net sales are derived from the sale of merchandise. Two major factors tend to affect our net sales trends. First is our success at opening new stores. Second is the performance of stores once they are open. Sales vary at our existing stores from one year to the next. We refer to this as a change in comparable store net sales, because we include only those stores that are open throughout both of the periods being compared, beginning after the first fifteen months of operation. We include sales from stores expanded or remodeled during the period in the calculation of comparable store net sales, which has the effect of increasing our comparable store net sales. The term ‘expanded’ also includes stores that are relocated. Stores that have been re-bannered are considered to be new stores and are not included in the calculation of the comparable store net sales change until after the first fifteen months of operation under the new brand.
At October 29, 2022, we operated stores in 48 states and the District of Columbia, as well as stores in five Canadian provinces. A breakdown of store counts and square footage by segment for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021 is as follows:

Table of Contents
The average size of stores opened during the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 was approximately 8,590 selling square feet for the Dollar Tree segment and 8,970 selling square feet for the Family Dollar segment. We believe that these size stores are in the ranges of our optimal sizes operationally and give our customers a shopping environment which invites them to shop longer, buy more and make return visits.
The percentage change in comparable store net sales on a constant currency basis for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022, as compared with the preceding year, is as follows:

Family Dollar Segment4.1 %0.1 %4.1 %1.2 %(1.5)%2.7 %
Constant currency basis refers to the calculation excluding the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations. We calculated the constant currency basis change by translating the current year’s comparable store net sales in Canada using the prior year’s currency exchange rates. We believe that the constant currency basis provides a more accurate measure of comparable store net sales performance. Comparable store net sales are positively affected by our expanded and relocated stores, which we include in the calculation, and are negatively affected when we open new stores, re-banner stores or expand stores near existing stores.
Dollar Tree Initiatives
In September 2021, we announced our new $1.25 price point initiative and we completed the rollout of this initiative to all Dollar Tree stores during the first quarter of fiscal 2022, increasing the price point on a majority of our $1 merchandise to $1.25. To date, the increase in the price point has more than offset the decline in the number of units sold. During fiscal 2022, we have begun investing in new products and modifying existing products to provide greater value for our customers and increase customer traffic and store productivity. While we expect our gross margin to be higher in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 compared with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, because of the investments in new products, we do not expect the increase to be as high as it was in the first three quarters of fiscal 2022.
We are also continuing to implement our Dollar Tree Plus initiative which introduces products priced at the $3 and $5 price points and provides our customers with extraordinary value in discretionary categories. As of October 29, 2022, we have approximately 2,350 Dollar Tree Plus stores.
We began testing the Instacart online delivery service at Dollar Tree stores in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 and began rolling it out in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. As of October 29, 2022, the Instacart platform covers more than 7,500 Dollar Tree stores. This enables our customers to shop online and receive same-day delivery without having to visit a store.
We believe that our Dollar Tree initiatives have and will continue to positively affect our comparable store net sales and earnings.
Family Dollar Initiatives
We are executing several initiatives in our Family Dollar stores to increase sales. In March 2021, we announced the development of a new combination store format, which we refer to as a Combo Store, that leverages the strengths of the Dollar Tree and Family Dollar brands under one roof to serve small towns across the country. We are taking Family Dollar’s great value and assortment and blending in select Dollar Tree merchandise categories, creating a new store format targeted for small towns and rural communities with populations of 3,000 to 4,000 residents. As of October 29, 2022, we operated approximately 700 Combo Stores.
We are also continuing to execute our store optimization programs. Our H2 stores have significantly improved merchandise offerings throughout the store, including the addition of Dollar Tree $1.25 merchandise items and establishing a minimum number of freezer and cooler doors. These stores have higher customer traffic and provide a higher average comparable store net sales lift, when compared to non-renovated stores, in the first year following renovation. H2 stores perform well in a variety of locations and especially in locations where our Family Dollar stores have been most challenged in the past. As of October 29, 2022, we have approximately 4,300 H2 stores.
Based on the success of the Combo Store and H2 store formats, in fiscal 2022 we anticipate adding 400 new or relocated Combo Stores in total and completing a total of 700 renovations into either the Combo Store format or the H2 store format.
After a successful pilot program in 2020, we entered into a partnership with Instacart in February 2021, which covers more than 7,200 Family Dollar stores across the United States as of October 29, 2022.

Table of Contents
In addition, we added adult beverage to more than 440 stores in the first three quarters of fiscal 2022. We believe the addition of adult beverage to our assortment will drive traffic to our stores. As of October 29, 2022, there were more than 3,180 stores selling adult beverage products.
Additional Considerations
The following trends or uncertainties have already impacted or could impact our business or results of operations during 2022 or in the future:
Anticipated Expense Pressures. Our financial performance is impacted by numerous factors, including changes in consumer spending behavior and increased costs due to inflation. We are currently experiencing a material shift in consumer purchasing from higher-margin discretionary merchandise to lower-margin consumable goods which has negatively impacted our product mix and margins. We also are experiencing inflationary price pressures relating to, among other things, merchandise costs, freight costs, wages, utility costs, and repair and maintenance expenses. In addition, we continue to improve Family Dollar’s value proposition and drive store traffic and productivity. We expect that the consumer’s shift to lower-margin consumable goods and any inflation-related cost increases, coupled with our planned investments in product pricing and our value proposition, will continue to pressure gross margins in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.
Supply Chain and Inventory. We rely heavily on Trans-Pacific shipping and domestic trucking and rail freight to acquire and distribute merchandise to our distribution centers and retail stores. Significant disruptions in our supply chain, such as the shipping delays resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, have negatively impacted our sales and the cost and availability of product in the stores. Although we may continue to experience oceanic shipping delays in the future as a result of shipping capacity shortages, port congestion or closings, or the imposition of additional lockdowns in certain Chinese localities to address COVID-19 outbreaks, our ability to ship products from overseas on a timely basis has improved in the second and third quarters of fiscal 2022. In the third quarter, this improvement led to an increase in inventory levels that exceeded the storage capacity of some of our distribution centers. As a result, we arranged for temporary offsite warehouse storage facilities and incurred detention costs and incremental drayage costs that increased our cost of goods sold and is expected to do so for the fourth quarter. In addition, the union collective bargaining agreement that governs the wages and benefits of a large number of longshoremen at ports in California, Oregon, and Washington expired on July 1, 2022. If the parties are unable to agree on a new or extended collective bargaining agreement, there could be work slowdowns or strikes, diversions of shipments to other U.S. ports, or other disruptions in our supply chain which could cause delays or otherwise adversely affect the availability of merchandise and increase our costs. We could also experience higher markdowns as a result of these supply chain challenges. Sales could be negatively impacted if we are not able to deliver inventory timely to stock our stores.
Freight Costs. We have experienced significantly higher international and domestic freight costs as a result of disruptions in the global supply chain. This trend, which accelerated in the second half of fiscal 2021, has continued during fiscal 2022. The combination of increased demand and limited availability of Trans-Pacific shipping capacity caused spot market prices to increase substantially. Although Trans-Pacific shipping continues to be pressured, spot market prices have moderated recently as availability of containers and shipping capacity has improved. Domestically, diesel fuel prices are and are expected to remain significantly higher in fiscal 2022 and may increase further because of international tensions. We are a large importer of merchandise from Asia and rely heavily on domestic freight to transport goods to our distribution centers and stores, which makes us particularly sensitive to freight costs. Due to these trends, in the first three quarters of fiscal 2022, import and domestic freight costs were higher compared to the first three quarters of fiscal 2021.
Labor Shortage and Wage Increases. We are experiencing a shortage of associates and applicants to fill staffing requirements at our stores and distribution centers due to the current labor shortage affecting businesses. This has adversely affected our stores operations, the operating efficiency of our distribution centers and our ability to transport merchandise from our distribution centers to our stores. The steps we have taken to address the labor shortage include hosting national hiring events, offering enhanced wages in select competitive markets, and paying tuition reimbursement. In 2022, the minimum wage has increased in certain States and localities, and proposals to increase the federal minimum wage have been introduced in Congress. Minimum wage increases in States and localities and wage investments in certain markets are expected to increase our costs by more than $195.0 million in 2022.
Build-out and Construction Costs and Delays. We have experienced higher commodity and other costs associated with the build-out of new stores and the renovation of existing stores. In addition, we have experienced delays in new store openings due to limitations on the availability of certain fixtures and equipment and inspection, permitting and contractor delays. We anticipate these increased costs and delays may continue for the foreseeable future. Sales will be negatively impacted if we are not able to complete these projects on time.

Impact of COVID-19. The future course of the COVID-19 pandemic, the timing and impact of any governmental responses to future outbreaks and the effectiveness of health measures such as vaccines remains uncertain. As a result, it is challenging for us to predict the future impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial results, customers, suppliers and the broader economies in the locations that we operate as well as the future impact on our supply chain and the global supply chain.
West Memphis Distribution Center. On February 11, 2022, the Food and Drug Administration issued Form 483 observations primarily regarding rodent infestation at our West Memphis, Arkansas distribution center (“DC 202”), as well as other items that require remediation. During fiscal 2022, we have incurred costs related to the product recall, remediation efforts and asset impairment. We expect to incur additional costs in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 for freight, merchandise disposal, payroll and legal costs associated with the remediation.
Strategic Investments. Building on our current initiatives, we are currently developing plans to make additional multi-year strategic investments across both banners to further position the company for long-term sustained growth. We anticipate that these investments will relate to four key areas of our business: our associates, our distribution center network and supply chain, our product pricing and value proposition, and our technology infrastructure. Within these areas, the focus of these investments is expected to be on associate wages, improved store execution, enhanced safety and working conditions, increased supply chain efficiencies, competitive pricing at Family Dollar, and enhancements to our systems infrastructure.
Results of Operations
Our results of operations and period-over-period changes are discussed in the following section. Note that gross profit margin is calculated as gross profit (i.e., net sales less cost of sales) divided by net sales. The selling, general and administrative expense rate and operating income margin are calculated by dividing the applicable amount by total revenue.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We invest capital to build and open new stores, expand and renovate existing stores, expand our distribution network and operate our existing stores. Our working capital requirements for existing stores are seasonal in nature and typically reach their peak in the months of September and October. Historically, we have satisfied our seasonal working capital requirements for existing stores and have funded our store opening and distribution network expansion programs from internally generated funds and borrowings under our credit facilities.
The following table compares cash flow-related information for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021:

Table of Contents
At October 29, 2022, our long-term borrowings were $3.45 billion. Additionally, we had $350.0 million of loans outstanding under our $1.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility and $1.1 billion of availability, net of $44.3 million of outstanding standby letters of credit. We also have $425.0 million in trade letters of credit with various financial institutions, under which $178.0 million was committed to letters of credit issued for routine purchases of imported merchandise as of October 29, 2022.
We repurchased 4,613,696 and 9,156,898 shares of common stock on the open market during the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2022 and October 30, 2021, respectively, for $647.5 million and $950.0 million, respectively. At October 29, 2022, we had $1.85 billion remaining under our Board repurchase authorization.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are exposed to various types of market risk in the normal course of our business, including the impact of interest rate changes and diesel fuel cost changes. We may enter into interest rate or diesel fuel swaps to manage exposure to interest rate and diesel fuel price changes. We do not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash flow hedging and we do not hold derivative instruments for trading purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to interest rate risk relates to our Revolving Credit Facility, as borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at SOFR, reset periodically, plus 0.10%, plus 0.875% to 1.50% as determined by our credit ratings and leverage ratio. At October 29, 2022, we had $350.0 million of loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. A hypothetical increase of one percentage point on such borrowings would not materially affect our results of operations or cash flows.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Our management has carried out, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of October 29, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were designed and functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended October 29, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we are defendants in ordinary, routine litigation or proceedings incidental to our business, including allegations regarding:
employment-related matters;
infringement of intellectual property rights;
personal injury/wrongful death claims;
real estate matters;
environmental and safety issues; and
product safety matters, which may include regulatory matters.
In addition, we are currently defendants in national and state proceedings and responding to the regulatory matters described in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. These include several putative class action and other complaints that have been filed against, as well as regulatory investigations of, Family Dollar related to issues associated with our West Memphis, Arkansas distribution center, and various litigation matters involving certain products manufactured by third parties and sold in our stores.
We will vigorously defend ourselves in these matters. We do not believe that any of these matters will, individually or in the aggregate, have a material effect on our business or financial condition. We cannot give assurance, however, that one or more of these matters will not have a material effect on our results of operations for the quarter or year in which they are reserved or resolved. Based on the information available, including the amount of time remaining before trial, the results of discovery and the judgment of internal and external counsel, we may be unable to express an opinion as to the outcome of those matters which are not close to being resolved and may be unable to estimate a loss or potential range of loss.
