million compared to the first quarter of 2025, and the rate (expressed as a percentage of Net Sales) was 25.9%, which decreased from 30.7% in the first quarter of 2025.  Our General, Administrative and Store Operating Expenses and rate both decreased primarily driven by an $88 million pre-tax gain, recorded as a reduction to Selling Expenses, related to cash proceeds received, net of legal fees, for favorable settlements of payment card interchange fee litigation. The first quarter of 2026 rate also reflects deleverage due to the Net Sales decline.</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:120%">Other Income and Expenses</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">Interest Expense</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">The following table provides the average daily borrowings and average borrowing rates for the first quarters of 2026 and 2025:</span></div><div style="margin-top:5pt"><table style="border-collapse:collapse;display:inline-table;margin-bottom:5pt;vertical-align:text-bottom;width:100.000%"><tr><td style="width:1.0%"/><td style="width:72.730%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/><td style="width:1.0%"/><td style="width:11.619%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/><td style="width:0.530%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/><td style="width:1.0%"/><td style="width:11.621%"/><td style="width:0.1%"/></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"/><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:700;line-height:100%">2026</span></td><td colspan="3" style="padding:0 1pt"/><td colspan="3" style="padding:2px 1pt;text-align:center;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:8pt;font-weight:700;line-height:100%">2025</span></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="background-color:#cceeff;padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">Average daily borrowings (in millions)</span></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 0 2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">$</span></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 0;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">3,841&#160;</span></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 1pt 2px 0;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"/><td colspan="3" style="background-color:#cceeff;padding:0 1pt"/><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 0 2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">$</span></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 0;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">3,916&#160;</span></td><td style="background-color:#cceeff;border-top:1pt solid #000000;padding:2px 1pt 2px 0;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"/></tr><tr><td colspan="3" style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:2px 1pt;text-align:left;vertical-align:top"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">Average borrowing rate</span></td><td colspan="2" style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:2px 0 2px 1pt;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">7.0</span></td><td style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:2px 1pt 2px 0;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">%</span></td><td colspan="3" style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:0 1pt"/><td colspan="2" style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:2px 0 2px 1pt;text-align:right;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">7.1</span></td><td style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:2px 1pt 2px 0;text-align:left;vertical-align:bottom"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">%</span></td></tr></table></div><div style="margin-bottom:3pt;margin-top:3pt"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:120%">For the first quarter of 2026, our Interest Expense was $69 million, compared to $71 million in the first quarter of 2025.

We are committed to maintaining adequate liquidity.  Cash generated from our operating activities provides the primary resources to support current operations, growth initiatives, seasonal funding requirements, future common stock and debt repurchases and capital expenditures.  Our cash provided from operations is impacted by our net income and working capital changes.  Our net income is impacted by, among other things, sales volume, seasonal sales patterns, success of new product introductions and product and market expansions, profit margins, income taxes and inflationary pressures.  Typically, our sales are highest during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year due to seasonal and holiday-related sales patterns.  Generally, our need for working capital peaks during the summer and fall months as inventory builds in anticipation of the holiday period.
