Common stock transactions

As of May 2, 2025, the Company had approximately $1.38 billion available under its Board of Directors (“Board”) authorized common stock repurchase program. The repurchase authorization has no expiration date and allows repurchases from time to time in open market transactions, including pursuant to trading plans adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing, manner and number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price, market conditions, compliance with the covenants and restrictions under the Company’s debt agreements, cash requirements, excess debt capacity, results of operations, financial condition and other factors. Repurchases under the program may be funded from available cash or borrowings, including under the Revolving Facility and issuance of CP Notes discussed in further detail in Note 5, or otherwise.

During the 13-week periods ended May 2, 2025 and May 3, 2024, the Company repurchased no shares of its common stock in the open market.

The Company paid a cash dividend of $0.59 per share during the first quarter of 2025. In June 2025, the Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.59 per share, which is payable on or before July 22, 2025, to shareholders of record on July 8, 2025. The amount and declaration of future cash dividends is subject to the sole discretion of the Board and will depend upon, among other things, the Company’s results of operations, cash requirements, financial condition, contractual restrictions, excess debt capacity, and other factors that the Board may deem relevant in its sole discretion.
