Freedom Broker Downgrades Dollar General (DG) to Hold, PT $140, 'Under our volatility-adjusted rating methodology, the revised target price corresponds to a Hold rating'

Freedom Broker analyst Georgy Vashchenko downgraded Dollar General (NYSE: DG) from Buy to Hold with a price target of $140.00 (from $95.00).

The analyst comments "Dollar General Corporation (DG) reported a mixed but constructive 1Q’FY26, with EPS and operating profit ahead of expectations despite a modest revenue miss. Net sales increased 3.4% y/y to $10.8 bln, same-store sales rose 2.0%, and EPS grew 12.4% y/y to $2.00. The quarter reinforces our view that DG’s value proposition remains relevant in a pressured consumer environment, while internal initiatives are beginning to support profitability. We raise our target price to $140 from $95. Under our volatility-adjusted rating methodology, the revised target price corresponds to a Hold rating."
