Dollar General Has Significant Organic Growth Potential In New And Existing Markets, Says Wedbush http://www.smarteranalyst.com/2014/08/29/we-believe-the-company-still-has-significant-organic-growth-potential-in-new-and-existing-markets-says-wedbush/
Come on DG -forget Family dollar - Move on to Dollarama OTC:DLMAF 84.79 biggest dollar store based in CANADA then move your headquarters there for the TAX evasion. Just my opinion here, but burger king did it and warren buffet gave it the thumbs up! All three of these dollar guys individually need to do something. I say let dltr have fdo and buy dollarama canada instead. dltr or anyone will fail with Levine. just another example of a spoiled brat trust fund baby running a company their forefather built into the ground. Hopefully the DG bid rejection will make dltr pay more. Shareholders of FDO know DG is a better fit and hopefully they will be able to file a lawsuit when crash and burn under poor management unquestioned continuously considering the guy never actually worked a day in his life -
History-by 1979 Leon (dad) Levine had 380 stores owned solely. Howard was 21 but didn't start a job there until 1981 where he was senior president of merchandising and advertising LOL at 23yrs old 400+ stores, but that wasn't good enough so he quit in '87 and was self employed as an investment manager until 1996
In 1998 he decided to rejoin the family business as CEO making 5.6m/yr
Ya, people are going to want to do business with this guy-
Good luck fdo and dltr
Interesting, what about Dollarama
DG Family Dollar REJECTS Dollar Generals offer. Time to test those support levels Clay. Hopefully people were smart and took profits when it gapped up. How low will she go? How big will a bounce be when it does bottom? This one will be crazy today IMO

I remember the Dollar Tree one after the crash of 09' This one IPO'd smart and was there for the bull run. No severe damage or losses. The flags sold here are usually made in USA stated on package at least.
That philosophy still holds true.
Still a very solid longer term play here IMO MAC.
Dollar General Reports Robust 2Q - Analyst Blog
Date : 09/06/2012 @ 5:30AM
Dollar General Corporation (DG), an operator of a discount retailer in the southern, southwestern, midwestern, and eastern United States, reported healthy second quarter 2012 results. The company’s quarterly earnings of 69 cents per share came in ahead of the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 64 cents. Moreover, it handily outperformed the year-ago earnings of 52 cents, registering an upside of 33% year over year, mainly due to increased sales and higher gross margin.
Quarterly Details
Dollar General’s total revenue grew 10.4% in the quarter to $3,948.7 million from $3,575.2 million in the comparable prior-year quarter. Higher sales were primarily driven by an improvement of 5.1% in comparable store sales over the prior-year due to higher average transaction and customer traffic. However, total revenue missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $3,959 million.
During the quarter, consumable goods increased at a superior rate compared with non-consumable goods mainly driven by company’s expansion initiatives. Moreover, the company’s home and seasonal categories along with some departments in apparel, accessories, sleepwear and intimates also experienced sales growth.
Dollar General’s quarterly gross profit climbed 10.0% year over year to $1,263.2 million, while gross margin contracted 10 basis points to 32.0%. The increase in gross profit was mainly attributable to higher initial inventory markups and decline in fuel cost with better transport efficiency.
Adjusted operating income for the quarter grew 10.9% to $388.1 million, while operating margin remained almost flat at 9.8% compared with the year-ago period, primarily benefiting from a contraction in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales.
Balance Sheet
Dollar General ended the second quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $134.2 million compared with $113.1 million at the end of the prior-year quarter. The company had an outstanding long-term obligation (including the current portion) of $2,887.6 million as of August 3, 2012. During the first six months of fiscal 2012, the company spent $304 million on capital expenditure.
Share Repurchase
During the quarter, the company’s board of directors approved an additional share repurchases of $500 million without any time limit in relation to expiry of such authorization. This approval brings the total authorization of share repurchases to $1 billion, including the approval of $500 million sanctioned in December, 2011. To date, the company has already bought back 11.7 million shares worth $485 million.

*If the earnings date is in error please ignore error. I do my best.
ill be perfectly happy shopping at other stores.
Your opinion and preference but I see things much differently. Guess we will see what the earnings show....
I wont be shoping there and neither will millions of other people.
That's your opinion and I agree one of the four stores in the 11 mile stretch I drive each day has crappy management too but that's not fair to judge them all for a few bad ones.
You wont see me there shoping, crap management.
