1. Basis of Presentation

Unless the context otherwise requires, the use of the terms “Best Buy,” “we,” “us” and “our” in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements refers to Best Buy Co., Inc. and, as applicable, its consolidated subsidiaries.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation as prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). All adjustments were comprised of normal recurring adjustments, except as noted in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

A large proportion of our revenue and earnings is generated in the fiscal fourth quarter, which includes the majority of the holiday shopping season. Due to the seasonal nature of our business, interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire fiscal year. The interim financial statements and the related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2023. The first nine months of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 included 39 weeks.

In preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, we evaluated the period from October 28, 2023, through the date the financial statements were issued for material subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure. No such events were identified.

Sale of Subsidiary

In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we completed the sale of a Mexico subsidiary subsequent to our exit from operations in Mexico and recognized a $21 million gain within Gain on sale of subsidiary, net on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the nine months ended October 28, 2023.

Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In the first quarter of fiscal 2024, we adopted Accounting Standards Update 2022-04 (“ASU 2022-04”), Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. ASU 2022-04 requires entities to disclose the key terms of supplier finance programs they use in connection with the purchase of goods and services, along with the amount of obligations outstanding at the end of each period and an annual roll-forward of such obligations. Below are the interim disclosures as a result of ASU 2022-04.

Supply Chain Financing

We have a supply chain financing program with an independent financial institution, whereby some of our suppliers have the opportunity to receive accounts payable settlements early, at a discount, facilitated by the financial institution. Under this program, the financial institution agrees to terms with our suppliers, including amounts that are eligible for early payment, the timing of such payments and the discounts. The financial institution then pays the supplier based on the payment terms agreed to. Suppliers’ participation in this program is at their own option. The financial institution can vary discounts offered at their own discretion. Our rights and obligations to our suppliers – which are typically formalized in standardized agreements – are not affected by the existence of the program. Our liability associated with the funded participation in the program, which is included in Accounts payable on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $680 million, $386 million and $713 million as of October 28, 2023, January 28, 2023, and October 29, 2022, respectively.

2. Restructuring

Fiscal 2023 Resource Optimization Initiative

In light of ongoing changes in business trends, during the second quarter of fiscal 2023, we commenced an enterprise-wide initiative to better align our spending with critical strategies and operations, as well as to optimize our cost structure. We do not expect to incur material future restructuring charges related to this initiative.

4. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are reported in one of three levels based on the lowest level of significant input used: Level 1 (unadjusted quoted prices in active markets); Level 2 (observable market inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1); and Level 3 (unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data).

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Financial assets accounted for at fair value were as follows ($ in millions):

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Fair Value at
|  | Balance Sheet Location(1) | Fair Value Hierarchy |  | October 28, 2023 |  | January 28, 2023 |  | October 29, 2022

Interest rate swap derivative instruments(5) | Long-term liabilities |  |  | Level 2 |  |  |  | 36 |  |  |  | 7 |  |  |  | 27 |

(1)Balance sheet location is determined by the length to maturity at date of purchase and whether the assets are restricted for particular use.

(2)Valued at quoted market prices in active markets at period end.

(3)Valued at face value plus accrued interest at period end, which approximates fair value.

(4)Valued using the performance of mutual funds that trade with sufficient frequency and volume to obtain pricing information on an ongoing basis.

(5)Valued using readily observable market inputs. These instruments are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded on an active market. See Note 5, Derivative Instruments, for additional information.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair values of cash, certain restricted cash, receivables, accounts payable and other payables approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. If these instruments were measured at fair value in the financial statements, they would be classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Fair values for other investments held at cost are not readily available, but we estimate that the carrying values for these investments approximate their fair values.

Long-term debt is presented at carrying value on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. If our long-term debt were recorded at fair value, it would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Long-term debt balances were as follows ($ in millions):

|  |  |  |  | October 28, 2023 |  | January 28, 2023 |  | October 29, 2022

5. Derivative Instruments

We manage our economic and transaction exposure to certain risks by using foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge against the effect of Canadian dollar exchange rate fluctuations on a portion of our net investment in our Canadian operations and by using interest rate swaps to mitigate the effect of interest rate fluctuations on our $500 million of principal amount of notes due October 1, 2028. In addition, we use foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments to manage the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relative to recognized receivable and payable balances denominated in non-functional currencies.

Our derivative instruments designated as net investment hedges and interest rate swaps are recorded on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. When significant, the gross fair values of our outstanding derivative instruments and corresponding fair value classifications are included in Note 4, Fair Value Measurements.

Notional amounts of our derivative instruments were as follows ($ in millions):

Short-Term Debt

U.S. Revolving Credit Facility

On April 12, 2023, we entered into a $1.25 billion five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility agreement (the “Five-Year Facility Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks. The Five-Year Facility Agreement replaced the previous $1.25 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Previous Facility”) with a syndicate of banks, which was entered into in May 2021 and scheduled to expire in May 2026, but was terminated on April 12, 2023. The Five-Year Facility Agreement permits borrowings of up to $1.25 billion and expires in April 2028. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Five-Year Facility Agreement as of October 28, 2023, or the Previous Facility as of January 28, 2023, or October 29, 2022.

Thereafter |  |  |  |  |  | 136 |

See Note 11, Segments, for information on our revenue by reportable segment and product category.

8. Earnings per Share

We compute our basic earnings per share based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and our diluted earnings per share based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding had potentially dilutive common shares been issued.

Reconciliations of the numerators and denominators of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows ($ and shares in millions, except per share amounts):

9. Repurchase of Common Stock

On February 28, 2022, our Board of Directors approved a $5.0 billion share repurchase program, which replaced the $5.0 billion share repurchase program authorized on February 16, 2021. There is no expiration date governing the period over which we can repurchase shares under this authorization.

Between the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2024 on October 28, 2023, and November 29, 2023, we repurchased an incremental 1.0 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $63 million. We currently expect total share repurchases of approximately $350 million in fiscal 2024.

10. Contingencies

We are involved in a number of legal proceedings. Where appropriate, we have made accruals with respect to these matters, which are reflected on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. However, there are cases where liability is not probable or the amount cannot be reasonably estimated and, therefore, accruals have not been made. We provide disclosure of matters where we believe it is reasonably possible the impact may be material to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 2.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Unless the context otherwise requires, the use of the terms “Best Buy,” “we,” “us” and “our” refers to Best Buy Co., Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Any references to our website addresses do not constitute incorporation by reference of the information contained on the websites.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect our future results. Unless otherwise noted, transactions and other factors significantly impacting our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity are discussed in order of magnitude. Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2023 (including the information presented therein under Risk Factors), as well as our other reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K and other publicly available information. All amounts herein are unaudited.

Overview

We are driven by our purpose to enrich lives through technology and our vision to personalize and humanize technology solutions for every stage of life. We accomplish this by leveraging our combination of technology and a human touch to meet our customers’ everyday needs, whether they come to us online, visit our stores or invite us into their homes.

We have two reportable segments: Domestic and International. The Domestic segment is comprised of our operations in all states, districts and territories of the U.S. and our Best Buy Health business. The International segment is comprised of all our operations in Canada.

Our fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest the end of January. Our business, like that of many retailers, is seasonal. A large proportion of our revenue and earnings is generated in the fiscal fourth quarter, which includes the majority of the holiday shopping season.

Comparable Sales

Throughout this MD&A, we refer to comparable sales. Comparable sales is a metric used by management to evaluate the performance of our existing stores, websites and call centers by measuring the change in net sales for a particular period over the comparable prior period of equivalent length. Comparable sales includes revenue from stores, websites and call centers operating for at least 14 full months. Revenue from online sales is included in comparable sales and represents sales initiated on a website or app, regardless of whether customers choose to pick up product in store, curbside, at an alternative pick-up location or take delivery direct to their homes. Revenue from acquisitions is included in comparable sales beginning with the first full quarter following the first anniversary of the date of the acquisition. Comparable sales also includes credit card revenue, gift card breakage, commercial sales and sales of merchandise to wholesalers and dealers, as applicable. Revenue from stores closed more than 14 days, including but not limited to relocated, remodeled, expanded and downsized stores, or stores impacted by natural disasters, is excluded from comparable sales until at least 14 full months after reopening. Comparable sales excludes the impact of revenue from discontinued operations, the impact of profit-share revenue from our services plan portfolio and the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates (applicable to our International segment only). All periods presented apply this methodology consistently.

We believe comparable sales is a meaningful supplemental metric for investors to evaluate revenue performance resulting from growth in existing stores, websites and call centers versus the portion resulting from opening new stores or closing existing stores. The method of calculating comparable sales varies across the retail industry. As a result, our method of calculating comparable sales may not be the same as other retailers’ methods.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This MD&A includes financial information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), as well as certain adjusted or non-GAAP financial measures, such as constant currency, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (“EPS”). We believe that non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, provide additional useful information for evaluating current period performance and assessing future performance. For these reasons, internal management reporting, including budgets, forecasts and financial targets used for short-term incentives are based on non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, our non-GAAP financial measures include adjustments for items such as restructuring charges, goodwill and intangible asset impairments, price-fixing settlements, gains and losses on sales of subsidiaries and certain investments, intangible asset amortization, certain acquisition-related costs and the tax effect of all such items. In addition, certain other items may be excluded from non-GAAP financial measures when we believe doing so provides greater clarity to management and our investors. We provide reconciliations of the most comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP to presented non-GAAP financial measures that enable investors to understand the adjustments made in arriving at the non-GAAP financial measures and to evaluate performance using the same metrics as management. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not superior to or as a substitute for, GAAP financial measures. We strongly encourage investors and shareholders to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Non-GAAP financial measures may be calculated differently from similarly titled measures used by other companies, thereby limiting their usefulness for comparative purposes.

In our discussions of the operating results of our consolidated business and our International segment, we sometimes refer to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates or the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which are references to the differences between the foreign currency exchange rates we use to convert the International segment’s operating results from local currencies into U.S. dollars for reporting purposes. We also may use the term “constant currency,” which represents results adjusted to exclude foreign currency impacts. We calculate those impacts as the difference between the current period results translated using the current period currency exchange rates and using the comparable prior period currency exchange rates. We believe the disclosure of revenue changes in constant currency provides useful supplementary information to investors in light of significant fluctuations in currency rates.

Refer to the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below for detailed reconciliations of items impacting non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP diluted EPS in the presented periods.

Business Strategy Update

In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, our teams once again delivered strong execution and showcased their ability to navigate through what continues to be a challenging environment for our industry, while keeping our customers and their experiences as our top priority. We continue to balance the need to adjust in response to current industry sales trends with the need to invest in our business so that we can capitalize on opportunities as our industry moves through this downturn and returns to expected growth.

Our digital sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 comprised 31% of our Domestic revenue, consistent with the third quarter of fiscal 2023 and nearly twice as high as the pre-pandemic third quarter of fiscal 2020. During these same time periods, the percentage of online sales picked up in our stores by our customers was also consistent at just over 40%. Therefore, we are continuing to adapt our omnichannel capabilities to ensure we maintain a leading position in an increasingly digital age and evolving retail landscape.

We believe our portfolio of stores needs to provide customers with differentiated experiences and multichannel fulfillment. At the same time, our stores need to be cost and capital efficient to operate while remaining a great place to work. We are on track to deliver our fiscal 2024 store plans, which include closing 20 to 30 large format stores and implementing 8 large format Experience store remodels. We also plan to expand the number of Outlet stores to 23 by the end of fiscal 2024.

We continue to advance our operating model to align with the ongoing evolution of our industry and marketplace trends with two overarching goals in mind – efficiently allocating our labor cost, considering the channel shift from our physical stores to online, and providing our employees flexibility, predictability and opportunities to gain more skills. We are focused on balancing the amount of labor hours necessary to deliver the best experience possible for our customers and other stakeholders.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, we continued to grow our membership base and ended the quarter with a total of 6.6 million paid members. Earlier this year, we successfully launched significant changes to our membership program that we expect will give customers more freedom to choose a membership that fits their technology needs, budget and shopping preferences. In addition, we expect the changes to provide more flexibility to evolve our programs in the future, while resulting in a lower cost to serve than our previous paid membership program, which we have already seen in margin favorability.

For the remainder of fiscal 2024, we expect macroeconomic headwinds to result in continued pressure, causing sales in the consumer electronics industry to decline again this year. In particular, our customers are facing economic challenges from the dual pressures of high inflation and heightened interest rates, and it is difficult to predict how such factors will impact us in the near term. However, we expect several factors to drive the eventual return of industry growth over time, including the natural upgrade and replacement cycles for the technology bought earlier in the pandemic and continued vendor innovation. While our product categories may experience different demand trends, in general, we believe they are poised for growth in the coming years. In addition, we are continuing our expansion into newer categories like wellness technology, personal electric transportation, outdoor living and electric car charging.

We remain excited about our industry and our future. There are more technology products than ever in people’s homes, technology is increasingly a necessity in our lives, and we believe we are uniquely there for our customers as they continue to navigate this innovative space.

(1)Because retailers vary in how they record costs of operating their supply chain between cost of sales and SG&A, our gross profit rate and SG&A rate may not be comparable to other retailers’ corresponding rates. For additional information regarding costs classified in cost of sales and SG&A, refer to Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2023.

In the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, we generated $9.8 billion and $28.8 billion in revenue, respectively, and our comparable sales declined 6.9% and 7.8%, respectively, as we continued to operate in a consumer electronics industry that is challenged from the economic pressures of high inflation and interest rates, the pull-forward of demand in prior years and increased spending outside the home in areas such as travel and entertainment.

Revenue, gross profit rate, SG&A and operating income rate changes in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024 were primarily driven by our Domestic segment. For further discussion of our Domestic and International segments, see Segment Performance Summary, below.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was relatively unchanged in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Our effective tax rate (“ETR”) increased to 24.7% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to 23.6% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, primarily due to the prior year recognition of losses and certain deferred tax assets for which tax benefits were previously not recognized.

Income tax expense was relatively unchanged in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the prior year resolution of certain discrete tax matters offset by a decrease in pre-tax earnings. Our ETR increased to 24.8% in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 compared to 21.4% in the first nine months of fiscal 2023, primarily due to the prior year resolution of certain discrete tax matters and decreased tax benefits from stock-based compensation, partially offset by the impact of lower pre-tax earnings.

Our tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual ETR, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. We update our estimate of the annual ETR each quarter and we make a cumulative adjustment if our estimated tax rate changes. Our quarterly tax provision and our quarterly estimate of our annual ETR are subject to variation due to several factors, including our ability to accurately forecast our pre-tax and taxable income and loss by jurisdiction, tax audit developments, recognition of excess tax benefits or deficiencies related to stock-based compensation, foreign currency gains (losses), changes in laws or regulations, and expenses or losses for which tax benefits are not recognized. Our ETR can be more or less volatile based on the amount of pre-tax earnings. For example, the impact of discrete items and non-deductible losses on our ETR is greater when our pre-tax earnings are lower.

(1)Comparable online sales are included in the comparable sales calculation.

Domestic revenue decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily driven by comparable sales declines in appliances, computing, home theater and mobile phones, partially offset by comparable sales growth in gaming. Online revenue of $2.8 billion and $8.2 billion in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024 decreased 9.3% and 9.5% on a comparable basis, respectively. These decreases in comparable sales were primarily due to the reasons described within the Consolidated Results section, above.

Domestic segment stores open at the beginning and end of the third quarters of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 were as follows:

We continuously monitor store performance as part of a market-driven, omnichannel strategy. As we approach the expiration of leases, we evaluate various options for each location, including whether a store should remain open. We currently expect to close approximately 25 Best Buy stores in fiscal 2024 and end the fiscal year with 23 Outlet Centers.

Notable comparable sales changes by revenue category were as follows:

Computing and Mobile Phones: The 8.3% comparable sales decline was driven primarily by broad declines in computing and mobile phone categories.

Consumer Electronics: The 9.5% comparable sales decline was driven primarily by home theater.

Appliances: The 15.1% comparable sales decline was driven primarily by large appliances.

Entertainment: The 20.6% comparable sales growth was driven primarily by gaming.

Services: The 6.9% comparable sales growth was driven primarily by delivery and installation services.

Domestic gross profit rate increased in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily due to improved financial performance from our membership offerings, which included higher services margin rates, favorable product margin rates and lower supply chain costs.

Domestic gross profit rate increased in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to improved financial performance from our membership offerings, which included higher services margin rates, and favorable product margin rates.

Domestic SG&A decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to lower store payroll and advertising expense, partially offset by higher incentive compensation expense.

Domestic restructuring charges decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to higher charges in fiscal 2023 from our resource optimization initiative and higher-than-expected employee retention in fiscal 2024. Refer to Note 2, Restructuring, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

Domestic operating income rate increased in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, due to favorability in gross profit rate and lower restructuring charges, partially offset by decreased leverage from lower sales volume on our fixed expenses and higher incentive compensation expense, which resulted in an unfavorable SG&A rate.

Domestic operating income rate decreased in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to decreased leverage from lower sales volume on our fixed expenses and higher incentive compensation expense, which resulted in an unfavorable SG&A rate, partially offset by favorability in gross profit rate and lower restructuring charges.

Notable comparable sales changes by revenue category were as follows:

Computing and Mobile Phones: The 1.0% comparable sales decline was driven primarily by computing, partially offset by comparable sales growth in tablets.

Consumer Electronics: The 8.4% comparable sales decline was driven primarily by home theater and headphones and portable speakers.

Appliances: The 4.0% comparable sales growth was driven primarily by small appliances.

Entertainment: The 18.6% comparable sales growth was driven primarily by gaming.

Services: The 2.4% comparable sales growth was driven primarily by growth in our membership programs.

International gross profit rates decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily driven by lower product margin rates. The decrease in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 was partially offset by a higher mix of revenue from the higher-margin services category.

International SG&A in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was relatively flat to last year, as the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates was primarily offset by higher incentive compensation expense.

International SG&A decreased in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates and lower store payroll expense, partially offset by higher incentive compensation expense.

International operating income rate decreased in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily due to an unfavorable gross profit rate and decreased leverage from lower sales volume on our fixed expenses, which resulted in an unfavorable SG&A rate.

For additional information regarding the nature of charges discussed below, refer to Note 1, Basis of Presentation, Note 2, Restructuring, and Note 3, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

(1)Represents the non-cash amortization of definite-lived intangible assets associated with acquisitions, including customer relationships, tradenames and developed technology assets.

(2)Represents charges related to employee termination benefits and subsequent adjustments from higher-than-expected employee retention related to previously planned organizational changes.

(3)Represents the gain on sale of a Mexico subsidiary subsequent to our exit from operations in Mexico.

(4)The non-GAAP adjustments primarily relate to the U.S. and Mexico. As such, the forecasted annual income tax charge on a portion of the U.S. non-GAAP adjustments is calculated using the statutory tax rate of 24.5%. There is no forecasted annual income tax for Mexico non-GAAP items and a portion of U.S. non-GAAP items, as there is no forecasted annual tax benefit/expense on the income/expenses in the calculation of GAAP income tax expense.

Non-GAAP operating income rates decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to unfavorable SG&A rates, partially offset by favorable gross profit rates.

Non-GAAP effective tax rate increased in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the prior year recognition of losses and certain deferred tax assets for which tax benefits were previously not recognized. Our non-GAAP effective tax rate increased in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the prior year resolution of certain discrete tax matters and decreased tax benefits from stock-based compensation, partially offset by the impact of lower pre-tax earnings.

Non-GAAP diluted EPS decreased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the decreases in non-GAAP operating income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We closely manage our liquidity and capital resources. Our liquidity requirements depend on key variables, including the level of investment required to support our business strategies, the performance of our business, capital expenditures, dividends, credit facilities, short-term borrowing arrangements and working capital management. We modify our approach to managing these variables as changes in our operating environment arise. For example, capital expenditures and share repurchases are a component of our cash flow and capital management strategy, which, to a large extent, we can adjust in response to economic and other changes in our business environment.

Cash and cash equivalents were as follows ($ in millions):

|  |  |  |  | October 28, 2023 |  | January 28, 2023 |  | October 29, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents |  |  |  |  | $ | 636 |  |  | $ | 1,874 |  |  | $ | 932 |

The decrease in cash and cash equivalents from January 28, 2023, was primarily due to the timing and volume of inventory purchases and payments, capital expenditures and dividend payments, partially offset by earnings.

The decrease in cash and cash equivalents from October 29, 2022, was primarily due to capital expenditures, share repurchases and dividend payments, partially offset by positive cash flows from operations, primarily driven by earnings.

Cash Flows

Cash flows were as follows ($ in millions):

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Nine Months Ended
|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | October 28, 2023 |  | October 29, 2022

Decrease in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | (1,194) |  |  | $ | (1,912) |

Operating Activities

The increase in cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 was primarily driven by lower incentive compensation payments in the current year as a result of less favorable fiscal 2023 results, and the timing and volume of inventory purchases and payments. These impacts were partially offset by a decrease in deferred revenue, lower earnings and higher tax payments in the current year.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 decreased, primarily driven by lower capital spending and a decrease in purchases of investments. We currently expect capital expenditures to approximate $825 million in fiscal 2024 compared to $930 million in fiscal 2023.

Financing Activities

The decrease in cash used in financing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 was primarily driven by lower share repurchases.

Sources of Liquidity

Funds generated by operating activities, available cash and cash equivalents, our credit facilities and other debt arrangements are our most significant sources of liquidity. We believe our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund operations and anticipated capital expenditures, share repurchases, dividends and strategic initiatives, including business combinations. However, in the event our liquidity is insufficient, we may be required to limit our spending. There can be no assurance that we will continue to generate cash flows at or above current levels or that we will be able to maintain our ability to borrow under our existing credit facilities or obtain additional financing, if necessary, on favorable terms.

On April 12, 2023, we entered into a $1.25 billion five-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility agreement (the “Five-Year Facility Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks. The Five-Year Facility Agreement replaced the previous $1.25 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Previous Facility”) with a syndicate of banks, which was entered into in May 2021 and scheduled to expire in May 2026, but was terminated on April 12, 2023. The Five-Year Facility Agreement permits borrowings of up to $1.25 billion and expires in April 2028. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Five-Year Facility Agreement as of October 28, 2023, or the Previous Facility as of January 28, 2023, or October 29, 2022.

Our credit ratings and outlook as of November 29, 2023, remained unchanged from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2023, and are summarized below.

Rating Agency |  |  |  |  | Rating |  | Outlook
Standard & Poor's |  |  |  |  |  | BBB+ |  |  |  | Stable |
Moody's |  |  |  |  | A3 |  | Stable

Credit rating agencies review their ratings periodically, and, therefore, the credit rating assigned to us by each agency may be subject to revision at any time. Factors that can affect our credit ratings include changes in our operating performance, the economic environment, conditions in the retail and consumer electronics industries, our financial position and changes in our business strategy. If changes in our credit ratings were to occur, they could impact, among other things, interest costs for certain of our credit facilities, our future borrowing costs, access to capital markets, vendor financing terms and future new-store leasing costs.

Restricted Cash

Our liquidity is also affected by restricted cash balances that are primarily restricted to cover product protection plans provided under our membership offerings and other self-insurance liabilities. Restricted cash, which is included in Other current assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $423 million, $379 million and $361 million at October 28, 2023, January 28, 2023, and October 29, 2022, respectively. The increases in restricted cash from January 28, 2023, and October 29, 2022, were primarily due to growth in our paid membership base.

Debt and Capital

As of October 28, 2023, we had $500 million of principal amount of notes due October 1, 2028, and $650 million of principal amount of notes due October 1, 2030. Refer to Note 6, Debt, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and Note 8, Debt, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2023, for additional information about our outstanding debt.

Share Repurchases and Dividends

We repurchase our common stock and pay dividends pursuant to programs approved by our Board of Directors (“Board”). The payment of cash dividends is also subject to customary legal and contractual restrictions. Our long-term capital allocation strategy is to first fund operations and investments in growth and then return excess cash over time to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases while maintaining investment-grade credit metrics. Our share repurchase plans are evaluated on an ongoing basis, considering factors such as our financial condition and cash flows, our economic outlook, the impact of tax laws, our liquidity needs, and the health and stability of global credit markets. The timing and amount of future repurchases may vary depending on such factors.

On February 28, 2022, our Board approved a $5.0 billion share repurchase program, which replaced the $5.0 billion share repurchase program authorized on February 16, 2021. There is no expiration date governing the period over which we can repurchase shares under this authorization.

Share repurchase and dividend activity were as follows ($ and shares in millions, except per share amounts):

| Three Months Ended |  | Nine Months Ended
| October 28, 2023 |  | October 29, 2022 |  | October 28, 2023 |  | October 29, 2022
Total cost of shares repurchased | $ | 128 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 278 |  |  | $ | 452 |
Average price per share | $ | 71.61 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 74.16 |  |  | $ | 96.83 |
Total number of shares repurchased |  | 1.8 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 3.7 |  |  |  | 4.6 |
Regular quarterly cash dividend per share | $ | 0.92 |  |  | $ | 0.88 |  |  | $ | 2.76 |  |  | $ | 2.64 |
Cash dividends declared and paid | $ | 201 |  |  | $ | 198 |  |  | $ | 603 |  |  | $ | 595 |

The total cost of shares repurchased increased in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 as repurchases were paused during the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The total cost of shares repurchased decreased in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 due to decreases in the average price per share and the volume of repurchases. Cash dividends declared and paid increased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, primarily due to an increase in the regular quarterly cash dividend per share, partially offset by fewer shares outstanding.

Between the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2024 on October 28, 2023, and November 29, 2023, we repurchased an incremental 1.0 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $63 million. We currently expect total share repurchases of approximately $350 million in fiscal 2024.

Other Financial Measures

Our current ratio, calculated as current assets divided by current liabilities, remained unchanged at 1.0 as of October 28, 2023, January 28, 2023, and October 29, 2022.

Our debt to earnings ratio, calculated as total debt (including current portion) divided by net earnings over the trailing twelve months remained unchanged at 0.8 as of October 28, 2023, and January 28, 2023, but increased compared to 0.7 as of October 29, 2022, primarily due to lower net earnings.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations

Our liquidity is not dependent on the use of off-balance-sheet financing arrangements other than in connection with our $1.25 billion in undrawn capacity on our Five-Year Facility Agreement as of October 28, 2023, which, if drawn upon, would be included in either short-term or long-term debt on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2023, in addition to the risks inherent in our operations, we are exposed to certain market risks.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in short-term market interest rates and these changes in rates will impact our net interest expense. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash generate interest income that will vary based on changes in short-term interest rates. In addition, we have swapped a portion of our fixed-rate debt to floating rate such that the interest expense on this debt will vary with short-term interest rates. Refer to Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2023, for further information regarding our interest rate swaps.

As of October 28, 2023, we had $1.1 billion of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $0.5 billion of debt that has been swapped to floating rate, and therefore the net asset balance exposed to interest rate changes was $0.6 billion. As of October 28, 2023, a 50-basis point increase in short-term interest rates would have led to an estimated $3 million increase in interest income, and conversely a 50-basis point decrease in short-term interest rates would have led to an estimated $3 million decrease in interest income.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We have market risk arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to operations in our International segment. On a limited basis, we utilize foreign exchange forward contracts to manage foreign currency exposure to certain forecasted inventory purchases, recognized receivable and payable balances and our investment in our Canadian operations. Refer to Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2023, for additional information regarding these instruments.

In the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations were primarily driven by the strength of the U.S. dollar compared to the Canadian dollar compared to the prior-year period, which had a negative overall impact on our revenue as this foreign currency revenue translated into less U.S. dollars. We estimate that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations had an unfavorable impact on our revenue of approximately $16 million and $88 million in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024, respectively. The impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our net earnings in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2024 was not significant.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We have established a Disclosure Committee, consisting of certain members of management, to assist in this evaluation. The Disclosure Committee meets on a regular quarterly basis and more often if necessary.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act), at October 28, 2023. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, at October 28, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended October 28, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
