The **high level of cash and cash equivalents in Q2 2025** resulted from **improved cash flow from operations**, where the company generated **$1.7 billion in cash flows from operations year-to-date**—a **127% increase** compared to the previous year. This substantial operational improvement, combined with **effective inventory management** (notably a reduction in merchandise inventories from **$7.53 billion** to **$7 billion**), and an overall focus on **working capital optimization**, significantly boosted its cash reserves.  **[0001104659-24-094354_tm2422849d1_ex99.htm:7]** **[0001558370-24-012525_dg-20240802x10q.htm:2]** **[DG_3400213_5]** 

Why was Cash and cash equivalents so high in Q2 2025?

The documents do not provide a definitive explanation for the sharp decline in cash levels from **1,222,691 USD thousands in Q2 2025**  **[0001558370-24-012525_dg-20240802x10q.htm:2]**  to **537,257 USD thousands in Q3 2025**.  **[0001558370-24-016024_dg-20241101x10q.htm:6]**  One document discusses factors such as **operational performance, disciplined expense management, and strategic capital allocation** in the context of cash changes over the year  **[0001104659-24-125759_tm2429662d1_ex99.htm:8]** , but these factors are mentioned regarding an overall increase rather than the specific decline observed in Q3 2025. Therefore, based solely on the available information, the exact drivers of the Q3 2025 decline remain unspecified.  **[0001558370-24-012525_dg-20240802x10q.htm:2]** **[0001558370-24-016024_dg-20241101x10q.htm:6]** **[0001104659-24-125759_tm2429662d1_ex99.htm:8]** 

What drove the sharp decline in Cash and cash equivalents in Q3 2025?

The drop was primarily due to the **redemption of $750 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior notes due September 2024**, which removed these liabilities from the current portion of long-term obligations.  **[0001104659-24-125759_tm2429662d1_ex99.htm:8]** **[0001558370-24-016024_dg-20241101x10q.htm:15]** 

Why did the current portion of long-term obligations drop so much in Q3 2025?

The documents show that **Q2 2025 Total Assets were 31,813,765 (USD, thousands)  **[0001558370-24-012525_dg-20240802x10q.htm:2]** ** and **Q3 2025 Total Assets were 31,460,415 (USD, thousands)  **[0001558370-24-016024_dg-20241101x10q.htm:6]** **, indicating a decrease of about **353,350 (thousands)**. However, the provided explanation in the documents details why total assets increased in a different period (from February 2024 to November 2024) rather than addressing the decrease from Q2 2025 to Q3 2025.  **[0001104659-24-125759_tm2429662d1_ex99.htm:8]** **[0001558370-24-016024_dg-20241101x10q.htm:6]**  Therefore, based solely on the available information, there is no definitive explanation for the decrease in Q3 2025.

What caused Total assets to decrease in Q3 2025?
