Dollar Tree releases Q2 forecast showing impacts from changing tariffs
Briefly

Dollar Tree has projected a significant decrease in its second-quarter adjusted profit, anticipating a decline of up to 50% from last year, primarily due to the impacts of fluctuating tariffs. This forecast has resulted in a premarket decline in the company's shares. Despite this, Dollar Tree maintained its annual sales forecast and adjusted its earnings outlook for fiscal 2025 upward, crediting lower freight costs and ongoing demand for affordable essentials. However, the impact of the Family Dollar sale will reduce the company's full-year earnings by around 30 to 35 cents per share.
Dollar Tree's second-quarter adjusted profit is projected to fall by up to 50% year-over-year, largely due to the volatility from fluctuating tariffs.
Despite the challenges, Dollar Tree maintains its annual comparable store sales forecast, while also raising its profit outlook aided by lower freight costs.
