On July 5, 2025, we completed our sale of the Family Dollar business to 1959 Holdings, LLC. Total cash generated from the sale approximated $793 million, consisting of approximately $680 million of net proceeds, including from settlement of net working capital and net indebtedness, and approximately $113 million monetized primarily through a reduction of net working capital prior to the date of sale. The Company has continuing involvement with Family Dollar under a transition services agreement, through which the Company and Family Dollar continue to provide certain services to each other for a period of 18 months following the date of sale. For the 13 and 26 weeks ended August 1, 2026, we recorded $17.7 million and $38.8 million, respectively, of net income from transition services between the two companies. For the 13 and 26 weeks ended August 2, 2025, we recorded $8.0 million of net income from transition services between the two companies. In addition, the Company is guaranteeing lease obligations for certain Family Dollar stores amounting to $20.0 million and $10.0 million in the second and third year following the date of sale, respectively. The fair value of the lease guarantee is immaterial.
The results of Family Dollar are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Income Statements for the prior year comparable period.
