Dollar Tree Completes Sale of Family Dollar Business to Brigade Capital Management and Macellum Capital Management

Dollar Tree, Inc. (NASDAQ:DLTR) (the "Company") today announced the completion of the previously announced sale of its Family Dollar business segment to Brigade Capital Management, LP ("Brigade") and Macellum Capital Management, LLC ("Macellum") for an aggregate base purchase price of $1,007.5 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments. Net proceeds from the sale are estimated to total approximately $800 million comprised of $665 million paid at closing and approximately $135 million as a result of the monetization of cash prior to closing through a reduction of net working capital. The Company now expects the economic impact of tax benefits from losses on the sale to be approximately $375 million. These amounts are subject to final adjustment approximately 90 days after the closing date.

"The completion of this transaction marks a defining moment for Dollar Tree," said Mike Creedon, Chief Executive Officer of Dollar Tree, Inc. "With a singular focus on our core business, we are doubling down on what we do best – delivering value, convenience, and discovery to our customers every day. Now more than ever before, we are poised to accelerate our growth, innovate faster, and unlock our full potential as a category leader in value retail."

As a standalone company, Dollar Tree will continue to grow through compelling initiatives like its expanded assortment, new store growth, and attracting new customers. Since the company's founding nearly 40 years ago, Dollar Tree has grown to a 9,000-strong store footprint, reflecting its strength as one of the most powerful value retailers in North America.

As previously disclosed, with the closing of this transaction, Dollar Tree will begin a Transition Services Agreement (TSA). The Company will be reimbursed for the cost of providing these services. The company expects an offsetting reduction to SG&A, resulting from a combination of this reimbursement of TSA expenses and a reduction in headcount expenses because of employees who will now be employed by Family Dollar.

The transaction was announced on March 26, 2025, and concludes Dollar Tree's review of strategic alternatives for the Family Dollar business segment, which began in June 2024.

J.P. Morgan Securities LLC served as financial advisor and Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP served as legal advisor to Dollar Tree.
