___________Note:(1)
The guidance ranges included in this section are forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws, are based on assumptions that we believe to be reasonable, are subject to several risks and uncertainties, and should be read in conjunction with the "Forward-Looking Statements" section of this press release, which outlines such assumptions and describes certain of such risks.
First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Results
Revenue
Total revenue for Q1 2025 increased by $37.8 million or 20.0% compared to Q1 2024. This growth was primarily due to a 13.0% increase in comparable store sales and contributions from new stores. Penetration of online revenue for the quarter has therefore increased by 0.1% from 16.3% in Q1 2024 to 16.4% in Q1 2025.
Cost of sales and gross profit
Gross profit for Q1 2025 increased by $20.1 million or 16.6% compared to Q1 2024, with gross margin(1) declining by 180 basis points to 62.1%, reflecting the impact of additional tariffs, partly offset by our mitigation efforts.
SG&A and Adjusted SG&A as a percentage of sales
SG&A for Q1 2025 increased by $8.5 million or 12.8% compared to Q1 2024. This increase was primarily driven by the Company's growing scale and activities, leading to a $3.3 million increase in wages, salaries, and employee benefits. Additionally, during Q1 2025, the Company strategically increased its marketing investment by launching more initiatives aimed at driving brand awareness, resulting in a $3.1 million increase in selling and marketing expenses compared to Q1 2024. Administrative costs increased by $2.1 million, negatively impacted by $0.5 million of professional fees related to the IPO. Adjusted SG&A as a percentage of sales improved to 32.4% in Q1 2025 down from 34.6% in Q1 2024.
Net earnings and adjusted net earnings
Net earnings for Q1 2025 increased by $3.4 million or 14.2% compared to Q1 2024. This growth is mainly attributed to higher revenue, partially offset by higher net financing costs and increased depreciation and amortization. Adjusted net earnings(1) for Q1 2025 increased by $3.6 million or 14.5% compared to Q1 2024.
Operating income and adjusted EBITDA
Operating income for Q1 2025 increased by $6.2 million or 16.2% to reach $44.3 million in Q1 2025 compared to $38.2 million in Q1 2024. Similarly, adjusted EBITDA for Q1 2025 increased by $11.1 million or 19.8% to reach $66.8 million compared to $55.8 million in Q1 2024. The adjusted EBITDA margin remained stable at 29.5% in Q1 2025, compared to the same period last year despite a decrease in gross margin. This reflects the benefits of operating leverage and effective cost management in a dynamic and challenging environment.
Working capital
As of May 3, 2025, we have maintained a strong inventory turnover ratio of 8.50x, compared to 7.59x as of May 4, 2024, with current assets of $198.8 million (including $106.6 million in cash) and current liabilities of $184.8 million. Inventory continues to be minimized through agile product development and strategic sourcing, driven by our high open-to-buy ratio.
Free cash flow
The Company reported robust free cash flow(1), achieving $41.6 million in Q1 2025, up from $36.6 million in Q1 2024, reflecting stronger cash generation despite a $10.8 million increase in CAPEX to $21.1 million.
Net leverage ratio
The Company's net leverage ratio decreased to 0.92x compared to 1.79x last year. This improvement is due to the increase in adjusted EBITDA, coupled with the repayment of all of its outstanding borrowings under the credit facilities which has more than offset the increase in lease liabilities and allowed the Company to reduce leverage significantly. At the end of Q1 2025, the Company has over $106.6 million in cash and $312 million available under credit facilities, providing flexibility to drive growth, invest in strategic initiatives and manage market volatility.
Return metrics
ROA of 23.8% for Q1 2025 has increased from the ROA of 20.0% for Q1 2024. This improvement indicates a significant boost in the Company's ability to leverage its assets more effectively than in previous periods.
For Q1 2025, our ROCE reached 44.5%, compared to 37.4% in Q1 2024, highlighting the effectiveness of our recent strategies and investments.

Non-IFRS Measures including Non-IFRS Financial Measures, Non-IFRS Ratios, Supplementary Financial Measures and Retail Industry Metrics
This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures, including non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios, supplementary financial measures and certain retail industry metrics. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS Accounting Standards and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. In this press release, we use non-IFRS financial measures including "adjusted EBITDA", "adjusted EBITDA (after rent equivalent expense)", "free cash flow", "adjusted net earnings" and "adjusted net earnings per share" and non-IFRS ratios including "EBITDA margin", "adjusted EBITDA margin", "adjusted EBITDA (after rent equivalent expense) margin", "return on assets", "return on capital employed" and "net leverage ratio". We also use supplementary financial measures including "inventory turnover", "retail sales per square foot", "comparable store sales", "gross margin", "SG&A as a percentage of sales", "Adjusted SG&A as a percentage of sales" and "CAPEX" and other operating metrics commonly used in the retail industry.
Additional details for these non-IFRS and other financial measures, which are incorporated by reference herein, can be found in our Management's Discussion & Analysis for Q1 2025 under the section "Non-IFRS Measures including Non-IFRS Financial Measures, Non-IFRS Ratios, Supplementary Financial Measures and Retail Industry Metrics", which is posted on our website at https://groupedynamite.com/, and filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Reconciliations for each non-IFRS financial measure to the most directly comparable IFRS measures are provided below.
These non-IFRS measures are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation.

Canadian bank fossil fuel funding rose in 2024 despite record heat: report

TORONTO - Canadian banks were once again ranked as among the world's top fossil fuel financiers in a report that showed overall funding rose in 2024 despite it being the hottest year on record. The Banking on Climate Chaos report by a coalition of environmental groups found that lending and underwriting among the world's 65 top banks rose by US$162.5 billion last year to US$869 billion, a reversal of a downward trend since 2021. RBC, Canada's largest bank, was ranked as the eighth biggest oil and gas financier globally with US$34.3 billion in new commitments last year, while TD Bank Group was ranked ninth with US$29 billion. The report pegged Scotiabank as 13th, CIBC at 14th and BMO Financial Group as 16th, with all of the big five Canadian banks showing an increase in funding from the previous year, including a 46 per cent jump for TD and a 41 per cent increase for CIBC. Richard Brooks, climate finance program director at says the increased financing, despite the record-breaking heat, shows Canadian banks are misaligned with climate science and have abdicated any sense of leadership on the issue. The Canadian Bankers Association says banks in the country remain committed to supporting clients in their climate transition efforts and understand that firm commitments are required to accelerate clean economic growth and meet the goal of a net-zero economy by 2050.
