Dollarama reported Q1 earnings of $113.6 million, compared with $86.1 million a year ago, while sales rose 13 percent. Earnings of $0.37 per diluted share were about in line with analyst expectations of $0.38 and above $0.28 in 2020. Comp sales, excluding temporarily closed stores, rose by 5.8 percent. The Montreal-based discount retailer’s sales momentum took a hit from retail restrictions put in place during the stay-at-home order in Ontario, which is home to 40 percent of its stores.
