Dollar Tree Lifts FY EPS Outlook to $7.70-$8.05 on Tariff Refunds
DLTR sits 49% above its 52-week low of $84.71.
Summary
Dollar Tree raised its full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $7.70-$8.05 from $6.70-$7.10, driven by a roughly 60-cent tariff refund benefit. Q2 adjusted EPS of $2.70 crushed the $1.15 consensus, including a $1.31 per-share tariff refund. Same-store sales rose 3.7% vs. 3.2% expected, and revenue of $4.89B edged past estimates. Despite the beat, shares fell 3.3% premarket to $127.89, likely on Q3 guidance of $0.80-$0.95 adjusted EPS, well below the $1.40 consensus, as the company reinvests tariff refunds. The company issued an underwhelming third-quarter outlook due to tariff reinvestment costs.
