Why Dollarama Is A Broken Growth Story And We See 40%+ Downside Risk
Ben Axler, 31 October 2018
Spruce Point believes that Dollarama (TSX: DOL / OTC: OTC:DLMAF or “the Company”) is now a broken growth story that will fail to hit its lofty long-term growth targets, placing its industry-leading margins and valuation multiple at risk of material contraction. As a result, we see ~40% downside risk to C$24.60 per share.
Rising product prices, progressively saturated markets due to heightened competition, and increasingly stale stores out of touch with Millennials have caused per-store traffic to contract for several years as consumers realize it is no longer a true dollar store. The Company is on pace for its lowest new store count in years despite management’s continued efforts to expand the store base. Dollarama’s gross and EBITDA margins are inexplicably high relative to peers, and seem too good to be true. Management also claims to have never closed a store for performance reasons. We expect growth and profitability expectations to fall back to reasonable levels as a number of fundamental factors – tougher competition, wage increases, FX, and logistics costs, among others – pressure the business going forward.

Intertain Group Limited Statement on Spruce Point Capital Report
Marketwired, 18 December 2015
The Intertain Group Limited (“Intertain” or the “Company”) (IT.TO) today issued a statement to address what it considers to be a misleading and self-serving report that was published on December 17, 2015 by a self-identified short-seller of the Company’s common shares, Spruce Point Capital Management LLC (the “Fund”). Intertain stands behind the integrity of the Company’s public disclosures.
The Fund’s report reveals that the Fund and its affiliates had built a short position in Intertain’s common shares prior to the publication of the Fund’s December 17, 2015 report and therefore stand to realize significant gains in the event that the price of the Company’s stock declines.
Intertain has established a committee of non-management directors to closely review the allegations contained within the Fund’s report. Following that review, the Company will take any and all actions necessary and appropriate to protect the interests of the Company and its shareholders.
