# Dollar Tree: Competitors & Industry Structure

## Direct Answer

SEC EDGAR classifies Dollar Tree under SIC code 5331 (Retail-Variety Stores). Among Swoopr's S&P 500 Equal Weight companies, 7 others share that classification; by latest reported revenue, Dollar Tree ranks 6 of 8. A filing classification is a starting point: a company's real competitors depend on its segments, which its 10-K describes.

## How Does Dollar Tree Compare With Its Peers?

| Company | Revenue (latest FY) | Revenue growth | Operating margin | Net margin |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| [Walmart (WMT)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/walmart/) | $713 billion FY2026 | 4.7% | 4.2% | 3.1% |
| [Costco (COST)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/costco/) | $275 billion FY2025 | 8.2% | 3.8% | 2.9% |

| [Dollar General (DG)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/dollar-general/) | $42.7 billion FY2026 | 5.2% | 5.2% | 3.5% |
| [BJ's Wholesale Club Holdings Inc. (BJ)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/bjs-wholesale-club-holdings-inc/) | $21.5 billion FY2026 | 4.7% | 3.8% | 2.7% |
| **Dollar Tree (DLTR)** | $19.4 billion FY2026 | 10.4% | 8.5% | 6.6% |
| [Five Below Inc. (FIVE)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/five-below-inc/) | $4.8 billion FY2026 | 22.9% | 9.6% | 7.5% |
| [Ollie's Bargain Outlet Holdings Inc. (OLLI)](https://www.getswoopr.com/stocks/companies/ollies-bargain-outlet-holdings-inc/) | $2.6 billion FY2026 | 16.6% | 11.2% | 9.1% |

Revenue growth compares each company's latest fiscal year with the one before. Fiscal years do not always end on the same date, so treat close comparisons with care.

## How Does Dollar Tree Rank Among All SEC Filers in Its Industry Code?

8 companies with annual reports in Swoopr's SEC dataset share SIC code 5331 (Retail-Variety Stores), a wider group than the S&P 500 Equal Weight companies above. Ranks run from 1 (highest) and use each company's latest fiscal year, in U.S. dollars.

| Measure | Dollar Tree | Median of filers | Rank |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Revenue | $19.4 billion | $32.1 billion | 6 of 8 |
| Revenue growth | 10.4% | 6.7% | 3 of 8 |
| Operating margin | 8.5% | 5.0% | 3 of 8 |
| Net margin | 6.6% | 3.5% | 3 of 8 |

A SIC code reflects the filer's main business as the SEC records it, so the group mixes companies of very different size; the median is a better guide than the average, and a rank near the top by revenue says nothing about quality.

## Where These Numbers Come From

Every figure on this page is a value Dollar Tree reported in its own SEC filings, read from the SEC's XBRL data (accession 0000935703-26-000025 for fiscal year 2026). Ratios are computed from those reported values. Figures were retrieved on October 12, 2026; a later amendment or a new annual report can change them, and the filing itself always takes precedence over this summary.

Each fiscal year is labeled by the calendar year in which it ended, so a company that names the same period differently in its own filings (many retailers whose year ends in January) may use another label. A year is left out of the table when the SEC data set holds no value for it. A figure shown as "Not reported" means the company did not file a value under the standard tag Swoopr reads, not that the amount was zero. This page is educational and describes reported history only; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.
