Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Revolving Credit Facility

 

On March 21, 2025, Dollar Tree, Inc., a Virginia corporation (the “Company”), entered into a credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”), with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as agent, the banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders from time to time party thereto and issuers of letters of credit party thereto, providing for a $1,500 million revolving credit facility (the “New Revolving Credit Facility”), of which up to $350 million is available for letters of credit.

 

The New Revolving Credit Facility matures on March 21, 2030, subject to extensions permitted under the New Credit Agreement.

 

Loans under the New Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at an initial interest rate equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) plus 1.125%, subject to adjustment based on (i) the Company’s credit ratings and (ii) the Company’s leverage ratio. The Company expects to pay certain commitment fees in connection with the New Revolving Credit Facility. The New Revolving Credit Facility allows voluntary repayment of outstanding loans at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary “breakage” costs with respect to SOFR loans. There is no required amortization under the New Revolving Credit Facility.

 

The New Revolving Credit Facility contains a number of affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, and subject to certain significant baskets and exceptions, restrict the Company’s ability to incur subsidiary indebtedness, incur liens, sell all or substantially all of the Company’s (including the Company’s subsidiaries’) assets (but excluding the potential spin-off or disposition of the Family Dollar business) and consummate certain fundamental changes. The New Revolving Credit Facility also contains a maximum leverage ratio covenant and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio covenant. The New Credit Agreement provides for certain events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the loans under the New Revolving Credit Facility to be declared due and payable and the commitments thereunder to be terminated.

 

 

The agent and lenders under the New Credit Agreement (the “Lenders”) and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. The Lenders and their respective affiliates have performed, and may in the future perform, various commercial banking, investment banking, hedging, brokerage and advisory services for the Company for which they have received, and will receive, customary fees and expenses.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the New Credit Agreement are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the New Credit Agreement, copy of which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s next quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and will be publicly available.

 

364-Day Revolving Credit Facility

 

On March 21, 2025, the Company entered into a 364-day revolving credit agreement (the “364-Day Credit Agreement”), with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as agent, and the banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders from time to time party thereto, providing for a $1,000 million 364-day revolving credit facility (the “364-Day Revolving Credit Facility”).

 

The 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility matures on March 20, 2026.

 

In accordance with the terms of the 364-Day Credit Agreement, the Company is obligated to utilize net cash proceeds from certain transactions to repay advances under the 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility, including with respect to net cash proceeds received in connection with asset sales, incurrences of other debt and issuances of equity interests, in each case subject to customary exceptions.

 

Loans under the 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at an initial interest rate equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the 364-Day Credit Agreement) plus 1.125%, subject to adjustment based on (i) the Company’s credit ratings and (ii) the Company’s leverage ratio. The Company expects to pay certain commitment fees in connection with the 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility. The 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility allows voluntary repayment of outstanding loans at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary “breakage” costs with respect to SOFR loans. There is no required amortization under the 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility.

 

The 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility contains a number of affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, and subject to certain significant baskets and exceptions, restrict the Company’s ability to incur subsidiary indebtedness, incur liens, sell all or substantially all of the Company’s (including the Company’s subsidiaries’) assets (but excluding the potential spin-off or disposition of the Family Dollar business) and consummate certain fundamental changes. The 364-Day Credit Facilities also contains a maximum leverage ratio covenant and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio covenant. The 364-Day Credit Agreement provides for certain events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the loans under the 364-Day Revolving Credit Facility to be declared due and payable and the commitments thereunder to be terminated.

 

The agent and lenders under the 364-Day Credit Agreement (the “Lenders”) and their respective affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities.
