Retail
Retail sales and same store sales at Canadian Tire Retail were up in the
quarter with 1.0% and 0.4% increases respectively reflecting strong
sales in key seasonal categories and continued growth in the Living,
Fixing and Playing categories. Automotive experienced strong sales in
key seasonal categories such as car care and maintenance products;
however, auto service and related parts sales declined in the quarter
compared to the same period in 2011.
At Mark's, retail sales increased 6.1% and same store sales increased
4.2% driven by growth in all merchandising categories led by industrial
apparel and accessories sales, which were particularly strong in
Western Canada. Men's and women's seasonal apparel categories saw
significant growth, which was focused in its warm weather categories.
FGL Sports' retail sales increased 4.2% in the quarter over the
comparable period in the prior year. FGL Sports' saw a 4.8% same store
sales increase in the period due to strong sales in spring footwear and
apparel, led by branded athletic clothing, and solid hard goods
category sales including golf and equipment for team sports.
Revenue in the retail segment increased 17.8% in the quarter primarily
due to the inclusion of FGL Sports and solid growth in all other retail
banners.
Retail segment income before income taxes increased 17.3% to $115.3
million compared to the prior year as a result of sales growth across
all banners, margin rate improvements and the inclusion of FGL Sports.
Retail segment income before taxes included $22.7 million of costs
associated with the FGL Sports banner rationalization plan.
Financial Services
Financial Services' was a strong contributor to the Company's earnings
in the second quarter. Financial Services' income before income taxes
increased 41.6% in the quarter compared to the prior year. Strong
growth in income before taxes reflects higher revenues earned on credit
card receivables, lower loan loss expenses and tight control of
operating expenses.

to prior year spending of $58.9 million, reflecting the inclusion of
FGL Sports capital expenditures.
