The fuel retailer and convenience store operator revised its guidance for adjusted earnings for the year to $1.9 billion, down from $2 billion.

Part of the lower forecast is due to impacts from the unplanned shutdown of Parkland's refinery in Burnaby, B.C., during the first quarter, the company said.
