The overall increase came as retail sales revenue totalled $100.3 million for the quarter, down from $102.0 million a year earlier, while franchise and other revenue amounted to $160.5 million, up from $148.3 million a year ago.

Same-store sales rose 0.8 per cent in the quarter, boosted by a 3.2 per cent increase in same-store average spend per transaction, offset in part by a 2.3 per cent drop in same-store transactions.

On an adjusted basis, Pet Valu says it earned 35 cents per diluted share in its latest quarter, up from an adjusted profit of 32 cents per diluted share in the same quarter last year.
