### Compensation Discussion and Analysis

### FY25 BUSINESS REVIEW
Our FY25 results, highlighted below, reflect the continued strong execution of our business plans and growth strategies. Total consolidated annual sales surpassed $56 billion with consolidated comparable store sales* growth of 4% driven by increases in customer transactions across each of our divisions. We saw increases in comparable store sales across our apparel and home categories. During FY25, we successfully increased our pre-tax profit margin, generated very strong cash flow, and expanded our global store base. In FY25, we also reinvested in our business to support our growth plans while simultaneously returning significant value to shareholders. FY25 was a 52-week year, and FY24 was a 53-week year.
