This is on top of the increased shrink headwinds by -$100 million in 2023, triggering its lowered FY2023 adjusted EPS guidance for the second time.

Vasos's pedigree and execution track record have improved the market's confidence as Dollar General struggles to shake off weak execution and macroeconomic challenges under its previous CEO. Analysts' estimates suggest Dollar General's worst could be over if execution improves further after the worst hammering in DG in recent times.
