Dollarama: Canaccord Maintains $57 Price Target

On September 9, Dollarama Inc (TSX: DOL) reported their fiscal second quarter results for the period ending August 1, 2021. The company announced revenue growth of 1.6% year over year to $1,029.3 million. Gross profit grew 0.4% to $387.08 million. Gross margins for the quarter came in at 43.4% while the operating margin was 21.4%. Dollarama’s net income was $146 million or $0.05 earnings per share.

The company also announced that comparable-store sales came decreased 5.1% for the quarter, but for the 7.5 week period, after Ontario lifted the non-essential product ban, comparable store sales increased 5.1% year over year. EBITDA increased 5.7% to $293.7 million or 28.5% of sales.

Many analysts changed their ratings and price targets, bringing the average 12-month price target to $62.43, up from $61.50 last month. 15 analysts cover Dollarama with 2 analysts having strong buy ratings, 8 have buy ratings and the other 5 have hold ratings. The street high sits at $70 from 2 firms while the lowest sits at $54.

In Canaccord’s note, they reiterate their $57 price target and hold rating, which was increased a week before Dollarama’s earnings. They headline the note by saying, “Restrictions drive comparable sales decline; supply chain challenges suggest longer-term incremental cost pressure.” Dollarama’s $1,029 million in revenue was practically in line with the $1,050 million street/Canaccord estimate, and EBITDA came in in line with Canaccord’s $296 million estimate.

The main reason for Dollarama to slightly miss Canaccord’s estimates is due to same-store sales coming in worse than the -2% estimated by Canaccord. Dollarama, for the first 5.5 weeks, could only sell “essential items” in their Ontario stores, which make up 40% of their locations. The other 7.5 weeks, they were able to open up shop to sell all products.

Canaccord tells investors that a key area they are looking at is shipping costs and labor costs. Below you can see Canaccord’s updated full year 2022 and 2023.
