Frequently asked questions

Is DG growing its revenue and profit?

Over the past 5 years, Dollar General's revenue has grown 4.8% per year, and net income declined 10.6% per year. These are computed facts, not advice.

How much debt does DG have?

As of FY2026, Dollar General reported — of total debt against $1.1B of cash.

What is DG's profit margin?

In FY2026, gross margin was 30.7%, operating margin 5.2%, and net margin 3.5%.

What is DG's P/E ratio?

Dollar General's P/E (TTM) is 16.90 as of the 2026-11-03 close — market cap ÷ net income over the trailing twelve months where four consecutive quarters are reported, otherwise the latest fiscal year, the same figure as on the DG stock page. The valuation chart above sets each month-end's price against the latest annual net income instead, so its latest point (about 19.0× as of Nov '26) can differ. These are computed facts, not advice.

Where does this data come from?

All figures are extracted from the company’s SEC EDGAR/XBRL filings — 10-K annual reports and 10-Q quarterly reports (use the Annual / Quarterly toggle). Quarterly figures are derived from the as-filed statements (year-to-date amounts are differenced into discrete quarters). Growth rates and ratios are computed by tradmap; nothing here is investment advice.
