Madison Investors Fund stated the following regarding Dollar Tree, Inc. (NASDAQ:DLTR) in its first quarter 2024 investor letter:

"Dollar Tree, Inc. (NASDAQ:DLTR) underperformed in the quarter following a messy earnings report that showed inconsistent results at Family Dollar. Given it is still early in Family Dollar’s turnaround effort, we had been expecting the potential for choppy performance, and weren’t that surprised by the result. What we found more notable were the strong results from the Dollar Tree stores, as they are the primarily value driver for the overall company."
