TRACTOR SUPPLY COMPANY ANNOUNCES INCREASE IN DIVIDEND AND SHARE REPURCHASE AUTHORIZATION

•Increases Dividend by 4.5%, Marking the 16th Consecutive Year of Dividend Increases for the Company
•Raises Share Repurchase Authorization by $1Billion

BRENTWOOD, Tenn., February 13, 2025 – Tractor Supply Company (NASDAQ: TSCO), the largest rural lifestyle retailer in the United States (the “Company”), today announced that its Board of Directors has increased its dividend by $0.04, or 4.5% year-over-year, to $0.92 per share on an annualized basis for fiscal year 2025. In accordance with this increase, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.23 per share of the Company’s common stock.

In addition, Tractor Supply announced that its Board of Directors authorized a $1 billion increase to its existing share repurchase program, bringing the total amount authorized to date under the program to $7.5 billion. As of December 28, 2024, the Company had repurchased 357.4 million shares of its common stock (adjusted to reflect the effect of stock splits) for approximately $6.03 billion since the inception of its share repurchase program in 2007.

“Tractor Supply’s business remains strong with a long runway for growth ahead as our Life Out Here 2030 strategy takes us through the back half of the decade.

The dividend will be paid on March 11, 2025 to stockholders of record of the Company’s common stock as of the close of business on February 26, 2025.
