Dollar General Corporation Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2022 Results

Reiterates and Provides Financial Guidance for Fiscal 2023 Full Year

Dollar General Corporation (NYSE: DG) today reported financial results for its fiscal year 2022 fourth quarter (14 weeks) and fiscal year (53 weeks) ended February 3, 2023 (“fiscal 2022”).

Note: Dollar General's fiscal 2022 full year and fourth quarter results contain an additional, non-comparable week, or the "53rd week”, when compared to the full year and fourth quarter results for the respective 52- and 13-week periods ended January 28, 2022 (“fiscal 2021”), and full year guidance for the 52-week fiscal year ending February 2, 2024 (“fiscal 2023”). By definition, the Company's same-store sales growth calculations do not include the non-comparable 53rd week in the fiscal 2022 periods. Unless stated otherwise, financial metrics discussed in this release, such as net sales, operating income, net income and earnings per share (“EPS”), are calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and therefore include the 53rd week for the applicable fiscal 2022 periods.

  • Fourth Quarter Net Sales Increased 17.9%; Fiscal Year Net Sales Increased 10.6%
  • Fourth Quarter Same-Store Sales Increased 5.7%; Fiscal Year Same-Store Sales Increased 4.3%
  • Fourth Quarter Operating Profit Increased 17.1% to $933.2 Million; Fiscal Year Operating Profit Increased 3.3% to $3.3 Billion
  • Fourth Quarter Diluted EPS Increased 15.2%; Fiscal Year Diluted EPS Increased 5.0%
  • Annual Cash Flows From Operations of $2.0 Billion
  • Board of Directors Declares Increased Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.59 per share

“Our fourth-quarter sales results were strong, although below our expectations, and we are pleased with continued market share gains in both consumables and non-consumables, as well as continued growth with new and existing customers,” said Jeff Owen, Dollar General’s chief executive officer. “We want to thank our more than 170,000 associates for their commitment to serving our customers, communities, and each other in this challenging economic and operating environment.”

“We made significant progress advancing our operating priorities and strategic initiatives in fiscal 2022, including executing nearly 3,000 real estate projects, completing the rollout of our non-consumables initiative, nearly tripling our pOpshelf store count, more-than-doubling the size of our private tractor fleet, and opening three new distribution centers. As a result, we believe we are well-positioned to continue serving our customers with our unique combination of value and convenience in the communities we call home.”

“Looking ahead, we are excited about our plans for fiscal 2023, which include continued investment in our strategic initiatives and an incremental investment of approximately $100 million in our stores, primarily in incremental labor hours, as we look to build on our sales momentum and capture additional market share by further enhancing store standards and the in-store experience. Building on the investments we made in 2022, and the substantial progress we have made in our supply chain, we believe this incremental investment will yield strong returns as we continue creating long-term sustainable growth and value for our shareholders.”

Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights

Net sales increased 17.9% to $10.2 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $8.7 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021. Net sales for the 53rd week of fiscal 2022 were $678.1 million. The net sales increase was primarily driven by positive sales contributions from new stores and growth in same-store sales, partially offset by the impact of store closures. Same-store sales increased 5.7% compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, driven by an increase in average transaction amount, partially offset by a modest decrease in customer traffic. Same-store sales in the fourth quarter of 2022 included growth in the consumables category, partially offset by declines in each of the apparel, home, and seasonal products categories.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 30.9% in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 31.2% in the fourth quarter of 2021, a decrease of 35 basis points. This gross profit rate decrease was primarily attributable to an increased LIFO provision, which was driven by higher product costs; a greater proportion of sales coming from the consumables category, which generally has a lower gross profit rate than other product categories; and increases in inventory shrink, damages and markdowns; partially offset by higher inventory markups and a reduction in transportation costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) as a percentage of net sales were 21.7% in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 22.0% in the fourth quarter of 2021, a decrease of 29 basis points. The primary expenses that were a lower percentage of net sales in the current year period were retail occupancy costs, incentive compensation, and retail labor; partially offset by certain expenses that were a greater percentage of net sales in the current year period, primarily utilities.

Operating profit for the fourth quarter of 2022 increased 17.1% to $933.2 million compared to $796.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021.

The effective income tax rate in the fourth quarter of 2022 was 23.2% compared to 21.2% in the fourth quarter of 2021. This higher effective income tax rate was primarily due to decreased income tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation, and a higher state effective income tax rate compared to 2021.

The Company reported net income of $659.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of 10.3% compared to $597.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Diluted EPS increased 15.2% to $2.96 for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to diluted EPS of $2.57 in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Fiscal Year 2022 Highlights

Fiscal year 2022 net sales increased 10.6% to $37.8 billion compared to $34.2 billion in fiscal year 2021. Net sales for the 53rd week of fiscal 2022 were $678.1 million. The net sales increase was primarily driven by positive sales contributions from new stores and growth in same-store sales, partially offset by the impact of store closures. Same-store sales increased 4.3% compared to fiscal year 2021, driven by an increase in average transaction amount, partially offset by a modest decline in customer traffic. Same-store sales in the fourth quarter of 2022 included growth in the consumables category, partially offset by declines in each of the apparel, home, and seasonal products categories.

Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 31.2% in fiscal year 2022, compared to 31.6% in fiscal year 2021, a decrease of 37 basis points. The gross profit rate decrease in 2022 was primarily attributable to an increased LIFO provision, which was driven higher by product costs; a greater proportion of sales coming from the consumables category, which generally has a lower gross profit rate than other product categories; and increases in inventory markdowns, damages and shrink; partially offset by higher inventory markups and an improvement in transportation costs.

SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 22.4% in fiscal year 2022 compared to 22.2% in fiscal year 2021, an increase of 25 basis points. The primary expenses that were a higher percentage of net sales in the current year were utilities, retail labor, and repairs and maintenance; partially offset by certain expenses that were a lower percentage of net sales in the current year, including incentive compensation and retail occupancy costs.

Operating profit for fiscal year 2022 increased 3.3% to $3.3 billion compared to $3.2 billion in fiscal year 2021.

The effective income tax rate in fiscal year 2022 was 22.5% compared to 21.7% in fiscal year 2021. This higher effective income tax rate was primarily due to decreased income tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation compared to 2021.

The Company reported net income of $2.4 billion for fiscal year 2022, an increase of 0.7% compared to $2.4 billion in fiscal year 2021. Diluted EPS increased 5.0% to $10.68 for fiscal year 2022 compared to diluted EPS of $10.17 in fiscal year 2021. The increase in diluted EPS includes an estimated impact of the 53rd week of approximately four percentage points.

Merchandise Inventories

As of February 3, 2023, total merchandise inventories, at cost, were $6.8 billion compared to $5.6 billion as of January 28, 2022, an increase of 14.3% on a per-store basis. This increase primarily reflects the impact of product cost inflation and a greater mix of higher-value products, particularly in the Home and Seasonal categories, primarily due to the continued rollout of the Company’s non-consumables initiative, as well as the earlier receipt of seasonal goods.

Capital Expenditures

Total additions to property and equipment in fiscal year 2022 were $1.6 billion, including approximately: $589 million for improvements, upgrades, remodels and relocations of existing stores; $443 million for distribution and transportation-related projects; $373 million related to store facilities, primarily for leasehold improvements, fixtures and equipment in new stores; and $62 million for information systems upgrades and technology-related projects. During fiscal year 2022, the Company opened 1,039 new stores, remodeled 1,795 stores, and relocated 127 stores.

Share Repurchases

In fiscal year 2022, the Company repurchased $2.7 billion of its common stock, or 11.6 million shares, at an average price of $236.02 per share, under its share repurchase program. The total remaining authorization for future repurchases was $1.4 billion at the end of fiscal year 2022. Under the authorization, repurchases may be made 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 and other factors. The authorization has no expiration date.

Dividend

On March 15, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors declared an increased quarterly cash dividend of $0.59 per share on the Company’s common stock, payable on or before April 25, 2023 to shareholders of record on April 11, 2023. While the Board of Directors currently intends to continue regular cash dividends, the declaration and amount of future dividends are 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, and other factors the Board may deem relevant in its sole discretion.

Fiscal Year 2023 Financial Guidance and Store Growth Outlook

The Company previously provided preliminary expectations for same-store sales growth and Diluted EPS growth in its press release on February 23, 2023. The Company is reiterating those expectations, as well as providing additional financial guidance, and currently expects the following for fiscal 2023:

  • Net sales growth in the range of approximately 5.5% to 6%, including an anticipated negative impact of approximately two percentage points due to lapping the fiscal 2022 53rd week
  • Same-store sales growth in the range of 3.0% to 3.5%
  • Diluted EPS growth in the range of approximately 4% to 6%, including anticipated negative impacts of the following:
    • approximately three percentage points due to higher interest expense in fiscal 2023, and
    • approximately four percentage points due to lapping the fiscal 2022 53rd week
  • This Diluted EPS guidance assumes an effective tax rate in the range of approximately 22.5% to 23.0%
  • Share repurchases of approximately $500 million
  • Capital expenditures, including those related to investments in the Company’s strategic initiatives, in the range of $1.8 billion to $1.9 billion

The Company is also reiterating its plans to execute 3,170 real estate projects in fiscal 2023, including 1,050 new store openings, 2,000 remodels, and 120 store relocations.

“Our fiscal 2023 full-year outlook reflects our confidence in the business, even in a potentially challenging economic and operating environment,” said John Garratt, Dollar General’s president and chief financial officer. “While we anticipate the first half of fiscal 2023 to be negatively impacted by ongoing sales mix pressures, higher shrink levels, increased damages, and higher interest expense, we are confident in our full-year plans.”

“Our outlook for the year includes strong sales and operating profit, while also providing for investments intended to drive long-term sustainable growth. We continue to be disciplined in managing expenses and capital, while delivering on our financial priorities to drive profitable same-store sales growth, healthy new-store returns, and long-term shareholder value.”
