Second Quarter Results
All comparative figures below are for the 13-week period ended August 27, 2017, compared to the 13-week period ended August 28, 2016.
Net revenue increased by 10.2% to $174.0 million from $157.9 million in the second quarter last year. The increase was primarily driven by the revenue from eight new store openings and four expanded or repositioned stores since the second quarter of fiscal 2017, as well as comparable sales growth of 5.4%. Comparable sales growth was supported by continued momentum in the Company's eCommerce business and positive in-store performance.
Gross profit increased by 11.4% to $63.1 million, or 36.3% of net revenue, compared to $56.7 million, or 35.9% of net revenue, in the second quarter last year. Continued improvement in product costs and lower markdowns were partially offset by straight-line rent expense from the new Vancouver distribution centre, which is under construction, as well as rent expense related to flagship stores not yet open during the quarter. Excluding the impact of the straight-line rent expense related to these activities, gross profit margin was 37.4% in the quarter.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses decreased by 4.0% to $44.6 million compared to $46.4 million in the second quarter last year. The second quarter of last year included $4.6 million of costs related to the Company's IPO. Excluding these costs, SG&A was $41.8 million in the second quarter last year. This increase in SG&A dollars during the quarter was primarily due to variable selling expenses driven by higher sales volume and investments in information technology. SG&A for the quarter was 25.6% of net revenue, compared to a normalized 26.5% in the second quarter last year after excluding IPO-related costs.
Other expenses, net were $6.4 million, primarily driven by the significant strengthening of the Canadian dollar during the quarter, compared to $0.1 million in the second quarter last year.

Excluding these items, Adjusted EBITDA increased by 23.0% to $24.3 million, or 14.0% of net revenue, compared to $19.8 million, or 12.5% of net revenue, in the second quarter last year.

Outlook
The Company remains pleased with the performance of its new fall product which is being well received among customers. At the start of the third quarter, comparable sales were trending higher than in the second quarter until the unseasonably warm weather across the continent arrived in the latter half of September. The resulting pressure on outerwear sales impacted comparable sales growth such that third quarter to date, comparable sales are trending slightly below that of the second quarter. However, based on product trends to date, the Company currently expects sales to regain the prior momentum once seasonable weather patterns return.
The Company has already opened one new store in the third quarter, a Babaton store in Vancouver's Pacific Centre Mall, and expanded an Aritzia store in Toronto Eaton Centre Mall. In addition, the Company currently plans to open two new stores and expand or reposition three to four existing locations through the remainder of fiscal 2018. This includes the repositioning of an existing San Francisco location into a flagship store on Market Street.
For the remainder of fiscal 2018, the Company intends to continue making meaningful strategic investments in infrastructure and technology, as well as people – where it believes there are unprecedented opportunities to recruit exceptional talent. The Company believes these investments will position Aritzia to meet and/or exceed all of its five-year growth targets.

Non-IFRS Measures including Retail Industry Metrics
This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures including certain retail industry metrics. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We use non-IFRS measures including "EBITDA", "Adjusted EBITDA", "Adjusted Net Income", "Adjusted Net Income per diluted share", and "gross profit margin". This press release also makes reference to "comparable sales growth", which is a commonly used operating metric in the retail industry but may be calculated differently compared to other retailers. Beginning Q1 2018, we changed our calculation methodology by applying the prior year's average quarterly exchange rate to both current year and prior year comparable sales to achieve a consistent basis for comparison. Prior to Q1 2018, comparable sales growth was calculated using a U.S. dollar to Canadian dollar exchange rate of 1:1. These non-IFRS measures including retail industry metrics are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures including retail industry metrics in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures including retail industry metrics in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. Definitions and reconciliations of non-IFRS measures to the relevant reported measures can be found in our MD&A. Such reconciliations can also be found in this press release under the heading "Selected Consolidated Financial Information".
Forward-Looking Information
Certain statements made in this press release may constitute forward-looking information under applicable securities laws. These statements may relate to our future financial outlook and anticipated events or results and include, but are not limited to, expectations regarding industry trends, overall market growth rates, our growth rates and growth strategies, expectations regarding our capital expenditures, operations and use of future cash flow, our financial position, financial results, business plans and strategies, expectations regarding brand expansions, expectations regarding eCommerce growth, expectations regarding new store openings and the expansion and repositioning of existing stores, our ability to recruit exceptional talent, our belief that our business model will enable us to deliver consistent sales and profitability growth and in turn, increase shareholder value over the long term and intentions with respect to the implementation of new accounting standards and other statements that are not historical facts. Particularly, information regarding our expectations of future results, targets, performance achievements, prospects or opportunities is forward-looking information. As the context requires, this may include certain targets as disclosed in the prospectus for our initial public offering, which are based on the factors and assumptions, and subject to the risks, as set out therein and herein. Often but not always, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may" "will", "expect", "believe", "estimate", "plan", "could", "should", "would", "outlook", "forecast", "anticipate", "foresee", "continue" or the negative of these terms or variations of them or similar terminology. Forward-looking statements are made current as of the date they are made and are based on applicable estimates and assumptions made by us at the relevant time in light of our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors that we believe are appropriate and reasonable in the circumstances. However, we do not undertake to update any such forward-looking information whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required under applicable securities laws in Canada. There can be no assurance that such estimates and assumptions will prove to be correct. Many factors could cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements or future events or developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the factors discussed in the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's annual information form dated May 10, 2017 for the fiscal year ended February 26, 2017 (the "AIF"). A copy of the AIF and the Company's other publicly filed documents can be accessed under the Company's profile on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval ("SEDAR") at www.sedar.com. The Company cautions that the list of risk factors and uncertainties described in the AIF is not exhaustive and other factors could also adversely affect its results. Readers are urged to consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions carefully in evaluating the forward-looking information and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such information.

Adjusted Net Income per diluted share for Q2 2018 and YTD 2018 is a non-IFRS measure and is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by the total number of outstanding shares plus the total number of dilutive share options that would be included under the treasury stock method as at August 27, 2017 (or 116,745,179 diluted shares). For reconciliation of diluted shares to a reported measure, please see below.

The Company effected changes to its share capital in connection with the IPO completed in Q3 2017. For comparative purposes, Adjusted Net Income per diluted share for Q2 2017 and YTD 2017 is based on the same diluted share count as Adjusted Net Income per diluted share for Q2 2018 and YTD 2018, respectively.
