How big is it?
Dollar Tree bought back $1.8B of stock in the twelve months to Aug 1, 2026. At that pace, $2.5B covers about 1.4 years of buybacks.
The amount equals 126% of its free cash flow over the same twelve months ($2.0B).
Its diluted share count is down 8.1% from a year earlier.
An authorization is permission, not a promise: the company can buy less, more slowly, or not at all, and usually doesn't have to say when it buys.
