Comparable store sales increased by 4.4% overall, with U.S. stores showing a 6.6% rise and Canadian stores a modest 0.8% increase, aided by an earlier Easter holiday.
The company’s operating expenses also increased, totaling $406.0 million for the quarter, compared to $383.2 million in the prior year.
