Research Alert: Ctc: Margin Expansion Drives Q1 Beat, But Same-store Sales Well Short
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Canadian Tire Corporation (CTC) posted Q1 adjusted EPS of CAD2.02 vs. CAD2.00 (+1%), well ahead of the CAD1.81 consensus. The beat was due to better-than-expected margins, as revenue rose 3.3% to CAD3.57B (CAD30M ahead of consensus) despite a 1.0% decline in same-store sales (350 bps short of consensus). Gross margin expanded 90 bps to 35.4% (50 bps above consensus), reflecting effective pricing discipline and favorable category mix, although petroleum margins also contributed to the improvement. CTC's 1.0% same-store sales decline reflected the mixed consumer environment, although the two-year stack of +3.7% suggests some underlying resilience. CTC's margin performance indicated strong operational execution despite a challenging environment for consumers, as evidenced by the company's big same-store sales miss. As noted by management, Canadian consumers remain resilient but selective, prioritizing value, but not at the expense of quality products and shopping experiences.
