DOLLARAMA ANNOUNCES RENEWAL OF NORMAL COURSE ISSUER BID

Canada NewsWire

MONTREAL, July 5, 2022 /CNW/ - Dollarama Inc. (TSX: DOL) ("Dollarama" or the "Corporation") announced today that it received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") to renew its normal course issuer bid in order to purchase for cancellation up to 18,713,765 of its common shares, representing 7.5% of the public float of 249,516,878 common shares as at the close of markets on June 30, 2022, during the 12‑month period starting on July 7, 2022 and ending no later than July 6, 2023.

Purchases will be conducted through the facilities of the TSX and Canadian alternative trading systems. Dollarama may also purchase common shares for cancellation by way of private agreements or specific share repurchase programs under issuer bid exemption orders issued by a securities regulatory authority. Purchases made on the open market through the facilities of the TSX and Canadian alternative trading systems will be at the prevailing market price at the time of acquisition. Purchases made by way of private agreement under an issuer bid exemption order issued by a securities regulatory authority will be at a discount to the prevailing market price at the time of the acquisition. Purchases made under a specific share repurchase program will be at a discount to the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares on the Canadian markets on the date of the purchase. All shares purchased pursuant to the normal course issuer bid will be cancelled.

The average daily trading volume of the common shares on the TSX over the period between January 1, 2022 and June 30, 2022, as calculated per TSX rules, was 651,003 common shares. Consequently, under TSX rules, Dollarama will be allowed to purchase daily, through the facilities of the TSX, a maximum of 162,750 common shares, representing 25% of such average daily trading volume. In addition, Dollarama may make, once per week, a block purchase (as such term is defined in the TSX Company Manual) of common shares not directly or indirectly owned by insiders of Dollarama, in accordance with TSX rules. As at June 30, 2022, a total of 289,823,095 common shares were issued and outstanding, of which 374,060 were repurchased by the Corporation and will be cancelled in the normal course of business.

Under the normal course issuer bid which is set to expire on July 6, 2022, Dollarama received approval from the TSX to purchase for cancellation up to 19,376,824 common shares. As at June 30, 2022, Dollarama had repurchased a total of 15,807,623 common shares thereunder, at a weighted average price of $62.49 per common share. Such purchases were effected through the facilities of the TSX and Canadian alternative trading systems.

The Board of Directors of Dollarama believes that the purchase by Dollarama of its common shares continues to represent an appropriate and desirable use of its available funds to increase shareholder value.
