Tractor Supply Company issued and sold $500 million of 5.200% senior unsecured notes due January 30, 2032, on August 25, 2026, under an underwriting agreement dated August 19, 2026. The company said it intends to use the net proceeds to repay borrowings under its senior credit facility and for general corporate purposes, so the offering adds long-term debt while shifting borrowings from the credit facility to fixed-rate notes.
