Summer Plans? Stay Local, Spend Local: Majority of Canadians Intend to Support Small Businesses While Travelling Domestically this Summer Français

Almost three-quarters (73%) of Canadians will consider travelling to a destination to visit a unique business or attraction , June 11, 2025 /CNW/ - In this season of economic uncertainty, there's one thing Canadian businesses can undoubtedly look forward to: summer is coming and tourism is trending up. A recent survey by TD Bank Group found 89% of Canadians feel it's important to support small businesses this summer, with 64% of Canadians planning to travel within Canada in the coming months. The biggest economic boon to small business? The survey found 63% of Canadians will research shops, restaurants, and attractions ahead of time, with 73% considering travel to a destination to visit a unique business or attraction they researched. TD Economics also projects tourism to outperform other industries in Canada with the boost being fueled by Canadians looking to spend more of their travel dollars at home, and international tourists looking to Canada and other regions for summer vacation. "It's encouraging to hear that Canadians are planning to support local small businesses as part of their vacation plans this summer, as it helps both entrepreneurs and our local economies," says Julia Kelly, Vice President, Small Business Banking at TD. "It's particularly welcome news, as many of our small business customers have been concerned about consumer spending slowing down." The survey also showed that Canadians are keen on cottage country, with 46% of Gen Z and 42% of Millennials planning on visiting cottages during their summer vacation. Of those visiting cottages, 96% say they plan to check out local businesses, including restaurants, shops, and marinas. "We know how important small businesses are to communities across Canada," says Kelly. "At TD, we continue to be inspired by their strength and resilience and we are here to help small business owners with advice and support along their journey."

DOLLARAMA REPORTS FISCAL 2026 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS Français

, June 11, 2025 /CNW/ - Dollarama Inc. (TSX: DOL) ("Dollarama" or the "Corporation") today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended May 4, 2025. Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Results Highlights Compared to Fiscal 2025 First Quarter Sales increased by 8.2% to $1,521.2 million, compared to $1,405.8 million Comparable store sales (1) increased by 4.9%, over and above 5.6% growth in the corresponding period of the previous year EBITDA (1) increased by 18.8% to $496.2 million, representing an EBITDA margin (1) of 32.6%, compared to 29.7% Operating income increased by 20.7% to $388.8 million, representing an operating margin (1) of 25.6%, compared to 22.9% Net earnings increased by 26.9% to $273.8 million, resulting in a 27.3% increase in diluted net earnings per common share to $0.98, compared to $0.77 Unrealized gain of $10.4 million relating to the derivative on our equity-accounted investment, positively impacting EBITDA margin by 70 basis points and diluted net earnings per common shares by $0.03 22 net new stores opened, compared to 18 net new stores "We are off to a strong start to fiscal 2026 as we successfully pursue our Canadian growth, with comparable store sales supported by sustained consumables demand and positive seasonal offering performance. Dollarcity also continued to deliver value and advance its expansion plans, with the first stores in Mexico slated to open imminently," said Mr. Neil Rossy, President and CEO. "With The Reject Shop shareholders set to vote later this month, our acquisition of Australia's largest discount retailer remains on track and is expected to close by the end of July. We're excited to begin this new chapter of growth, while staying focused on our core Canadian business and Dollarcity partnership," concluded Neil Rossy. Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Financial Results Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 increased by 8.2% to $1,521.2 million, compared to $1,405.8 million in the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. This increase was driven by growth in the total number of stores over the past 12 months (from 1,569 on April 28, 2024 to 1,638 on May 4, 2025) and comparable store sales growth. Comparable store sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 increased by 4.9%, consisting of a 3.7% increase in the number of transactions and a 1.2% increase in average transaction size, over and above comparable store sales growth of 5.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase in comparable store sales was primarily driven by strong demand for consumables, while also benefitting from a positive performance of our seasonal offering. Gross margin (1) was 44.2% of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 43.2% of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Gross margin as a percentage of sales was higher primarily as a result of lower logistics costs. General, administrative and store operating expenses ("SG&A") for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 increased by 7.5% to $233.5 million, compared to $217.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. SG&A represented 15.3% of sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 15.4% of sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2025, reflecting lower labour costs, partially offset by higher store expenses and transaction costs from the proposed acquisition of The Reject Shop Limited. EBITDA was $496.2 million, representing an EBITDA margin of 32.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to $417.7 million, or an EBITDA margin of 29.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. EBITDA for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 includes an unrealized gain of $10.4 million relating to the derivative on equity-accounted investment, reflecting the fair value adjustment of the option to purchase an additional 9.89% equity interest in Central American Retail Sourcing Inc. and a corresponding proportionate 4.945% equity interest in Inversiones Comerciales Mexicana S.A (the "Call Option"). Excluding the impact of the unrealized gain from the derivative on equity-accounted investment ($10.4 million), EBITDA and EBITDA margin would have been $485.8 million and 31.9%, respectively. The Corporation's 60.1% share of Dollarcity's net earnings for the period from January 1, 2025 to March 31, 2025 amounted to $40.3 million, compared to $22.1 million for the Corporation's 50.1% share during the same period last year. This 82.4% increase is primarily attributable to continued strong operational performance during the three‑month period ended March 31, 2025, compared to the same period last year, and the acquisition of an additional 10% equity interest in Dollarcity on June 11, 2024 (the "Dollarcity Transaction"). Dollarcity's first quarter performance was mainly driven by a 12.6% increase in sales, supported by an increase in the total number of stores (from 547 on March 31, 2024, to 644 on March 31, 2025), as well as an increase in gross margin as a percentage of sales from lower inbound shipping and logistics costs. Dollarcity's SG&A as a percentage of sales remains stable, further improving the strong performance of the first quarter. The Corporation's investment in Dollarcity is accounted for as a joint arrangement using the equity method. Net financing costs increased by $7.5 million, from $36.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 to $44.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal increase is mainly due to a higher interest expense on lease liabilities and a decrease in interest income due to lower invested capital. Net earnings increased by 26.9% to $273.8 million, compared to $215.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, resulting in an increase in diluted net earnings per common share of 27.3% to $0.98 per diluted common share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Excluding the impact of the unrealized gain from the derivative on equity-accounted investment ($0.03 per diluted common share), diluted net earnings per common share would have been $0.95 per diluted common share. Dollarcity Network Growth During its first quarter ended March 31, 2025, Dollarcity opened 12 net new stores, compared to 15 net new stores in the same period last year. As at March 31, 2025, Dollarcity had a total of 644 stores, with 377 locations in Colombia, 109 in Guatemala, 77 in El Salvador and 81 in Peru. This compares to 632 stores as at December 31, 2024. Dollarama Normal Course Issuer Bid and Dividend During the first quarter of fiscal 2026, no common shares were repurchased for cancellation under the Corporation's 2024-2025 normal course issuer bid. On June 11, 2025, the Corporation announced that its board of directors approved a quarterly cash dividend for holders of common shares of $0.1058 per common share. This dividend is payable on August 8, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business on July 11, 2025. The dividend is designated as an "eligible dividend" for Canadian tax purposes.

As at (dollars in thousands) May 4, 2025 February 2, 2025 $ $ Statement of Financial Position Data Cash and cash equivalents 229,008 122,685 Inventories 939,120 921,095 Total current assets 1,249,132 1,201,280 Property, plant and equipment 1,064,116 1,046,390 Right-of-use assets 2,132,909 2,109,445 Total assets 6,568,184 6,482,592 Total current liabilities 952,452 1,014,306 Total non-current liabilities 4,295,659 4,280,028 Total debt (1) 2,269,831 2,282,679 Net debt (1) 2,040,823 2,159,994 Shareholders' equity 1,320,073 1,188,258 Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures The Corporation prepares its financial information in accordance with GAAP. Management has included non‑GAAP and other financial measures to provide investors with supplemental measures of the Corporation's operating and financial performance. Management believes that those measures are important supplemental metrics of operating and financial performance because they eliminate items that have less bearing on the Corporation's operating and financial performance and thus highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP measures. Management also believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-GAAP and other financial measures in the evaluation of issuers. Management also uses non-GAAP and other financial measures to facilitate operating and financial performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual budgets and to assess their ability to meet the Corporation's future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. The below-described non-GAAP and other financial measures do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers and should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. (A) Non-GAAP Financial Measures EBITDA EBITDA represents net earnings plus income taxes, net financing costs and depreciation and amortization and includes the Corporation's share of net earnings of its equity-accounted investment. Management believes EBITDA measure represents a supplemental metric to assess the operational profitability of the underlying core operations. The Corporation has revised its reconciliation approach for EBITDA by beginning with net earnings, rather than operating income as in prior periods. This change was implemented to consider the impact of the unrealized gain from derivative on equity-accounted investment and to improve comparability with industry peers. The change has no impact on the comparative period and EBITDA previously reported by the Company for the years ended February 2, 2025 and January 28, 2024. The Corporation also calculates EBITDA excluding unrealized gain from derivative on equity-accounted investment, in order to exclude the impact of the Call Option, given the Call Option does not reflect ongoing operations of the Corporation and should not, in management's view, be considered in a long-term assessment of the operational profitability of the underlying core operations of the Corporation. A reconciliation of net earnings to EBITDA is included below: Total debt Total debt represents the sum of long-term debt (including unamortized debt issue costs, accrued interest and fair value hedge – basis adjustment), short-term borrowings under the US commercial paper program, long-term financing arrangements and other bank indebtedness (if any). Management believes Total debt is a measure that is useful to facilitate the understanding of the Corporation's corporate financial position in relation to its financing obligations. A reconciliation of long-term debt to total debt is included below: Net debt Net debt represents total debt minus cash and cash equivalents. Management believes Net debt represents a useful additional measure to assess the financial position of the Corporation by showing all of the Corporation's financing obligations, net of cash and cash equivalents. A reconciliation of total debt to net debt is included below: (B) Non-GAAP Ratios Adjusted net debt to EBITDA ratio Adjusted net debt to EBITDA ratio is a ratio calculated using adjusted net debt over consolidated EBITDA for the last twelve months. Management uses this ratio to partially assess the financial condition of the Corporation. An increasing ratio would indicate that the Corporation is utilizing more debt per dollar of EBITDA generated. A calculation of adjusted net debt to EBITDA ratio is included below: EBITDA margin EBITDA margin represents EBITDA divided by sales. Management believes that this measure is useful in assessing the performance of ongoing operations and efficiency of operations relative to its sales. The Corporation also calculates EBITDA margin excluding unrealized gain from derivative on equity-accounted investment, in order to exclude the impact of the Call Option, given the Call Option does not reflect ongoing operations of the Corporation and should not, in management's view, be considered in a long-term assessment of the operational profitability of the underlying core operations of the Corporation. A reconciliation of EBITDA to EBITDA margin is included below: (C) Supplementary Financial Measures For further information: Investors: Patrick Bui, Chief Financial Officer, (514) 737-1006 x1237, [email protected] Media: Lyla Radmanovich, PELICAN PR, (514) 845-8763, [email protected] SOURCE Dollarama Inc.
