Accounting Policies These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to interim financial statements. While these statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statement disclosures in our most recent Form 10-K. We use the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. We operate as a single segment that is designed to enable guests to purchase products seamlessly in stores or through our digital channels. Nearly all of our revenues are generated in the U.S. The vast majority of our long-lived assets are located within the U.S. Due to the seasonal nature of our business, quarterly revenues, expenses, earnings, and cash flows are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. TARGET CORPORATION Q1 2024 Form 10-Q 8 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Table of Contents NOTES Index to Notes 2. Revenue Merchandise sales represent the vast majority of our revenues. We also earn revenues from a variety of other sources, most notably credit card profit-sharing income from our arrangement with TD Bank Group (TD).

Merchandise sales — We record almost all retail store revenues at the point of sale. Digitally originated sales may include shipping revenue and are recorded upon delivery to the guest or upon guest pickup at the store. Sales are recognized net of expected returns, which we estimate using historical return patterns and our expectation of future returns. As of May 4, 2024, February 3, 2024, and April 29, 2023, the accrual for estimated returns was $ 198 million, $ 170 million, and $ 206 million, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements Fair value measurements are reported in one of three levels reflecting the significant inputs used to determine fair value. Financial Instruments Measured On a Recurring Basis Fair Value (millions) Classification Measurement Level May 4, 2024 February 3, 2024 April 29, 2023 Assets Short-term investments Cash and Cash Equivalents Level 1 $ 2,726 $ 2,897 $ 408 Prepaid forward contracts Other Current Assets Level 1 27 25 25 Interest rate swaps Other Noncurrent Assets Level 2 — — 7 Liabilities Interest rate swaps Other Current Liabilities Level 2 3 3 — Interest rate swaps Other Noncurrent Liabilities Level 2 154 123 72 Significant Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value (a) (millions) May 4, 2024 February 3, 2024 April 29, 2023 Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value Long-term debt, including current portion (b) $ 14,155 $ 13,123 $ 14,151 $ 13,467 $ 14,144 $ 13,672 (a) The carrying amounts of certain other current assets, commercial paper, accounts payable, and certain accrued and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. (b) The fair value of debt is generally measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for the same or similar types of financial instruments and would be classified as Level 2. These amounts exclude commercial paper, fair value hedge adjustments, and lease liabilities. 4. Supplier Finance Programs We have arrangements with several financial institutions to act as our paying agents to certain vendors. The arrangements also permit the financial institutions to provide vendors with an option, at our vendors' sole discretion, to sell their receivables from Target to the financial institutions. A vendor’s election to receive early payment at a discounted amount from the financial institutions does not change the amount that we must remit to the financial institutions or our payment date, which is up to 120 days from the invoice date. We do not pay any fees or pledge any security to these financial institutions under these arrangements. The arrangements can be terminated by either party with notice ranging up to 120 days. Our outstanding vendor obligations eligible for early payment under these arrangements totaled $ 3.3 billion, $ 3.4 billion, and $ 3.3 billion as of May 4, 2024, February 3, 2024, and April 29, 2023, respectively, and are included within Accounts Payable on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Our outstanding vendor obligations do not represent actual receivables sold by our vendors to the financial institutions, which have historically been lower. TARGET CORPORATION Q1 2024 Form 10-Q 10 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Table of Contents NOTES Index to Notes 5. Commercial Paper and Long-Term Debt We obtain short-term financing from time to time under our commercial paper program. There was no commercial paper outstanding at any time during the three months ended May 4, 2024, For the three months ended April 29, 2023, the maximum amount outstanding was $ 90 million, and the average daily amount outstanding was $ 2 million, at a weighted average annual interest rate of 4.8 percent. As of April 29, 2023, $ 90 million was outstanding and is classified within Current Portion of Long-Term Debt and Other Borrowings on our Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. 6. Derivative Financial Instruments Our derivative instruments consist of interest rate swaps used to mitigate interest rate risk. As a result, we have counterparty credit exposure to large global financial institutions, which we monitor on an ongoing basis. Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements provides the fair value and classification of these instruments. We were party to interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $ 2.45 billion as of May 4, 2024, February 3, 2024, and April 29, 2023. We pay a floating rate and receive a fixed rate under each of these agreements. All of the agreements are designated as fair value hedges, and all were considered to be perfectly effective under the shortcut method during the three months ended May 4, 2024 and April 29, 2023.
