For the full fiscal year, Dollarama’s earnings jumped nearly 17 per cent to $5.05 billion. Net earnings totalled $801.9 million, or $2.76 per diluted common share. Last fiscal year, net earnings were $663.2 million or $2.18 per diluted share. High levels of inflation have been a boost for Dollarama compared to other businesses, all of which are contending with tighter economic conditions after rising inflation forced the Bank of Canada to lift interest rates at an unprecedented pace starting last March.
The consumer price index, which measures inflation growth, peaked in June at 8.1 per cent and the latest reading pegged year-over-year price growth at 5.2 per cent, a steady decrease but still outside the Bank of Canada’s target of two per cent.
