Companies in the news:
Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc. (TSX:ATD). Retail. Down $2.38, or 2.99 per cent, to $77.12. Alimentation Couche-Tard says its net earnings fell by almost a third in its fourth quarter as inflation-squeezed consumers watch their spending. The convenience store giant says net earnings attributable to shareholders totalled $453 million in the quarter ending April 28, down from $670.7 million in the same quarter last year. The company says the earnings decline was in part from lower gross margins on fuel, the quarter being a week shorter than last year, and expenses and depreciation related to investments and acquisitions. Same-store merchandise revenue was down 0.5 per cent in the U.S., by two per cent in Europe and by 3.4 per cent in Canada because of lower discretionary spending.
