The following table presents selected consolidated information:

Compared to the Fourth Quarter of 2021:

Consolidated sales increased by $24.6 million or 6.2% to $424.8 million. Excluding the impact of unfavorable fluctuation of the British pound and the Canadian dollar against the US dollar of $26.1 million or 6.5%, consolidated sales increased by $50.7 million or 12.7%, compared to the same quarter in 2021, driven by organic growth, from all three segments, ranging between 5.0% and 20.6% for the quarter, as well as by acquisitions, offsetting an unfavorable variance in the number of billing days. Consolidated organic growth of 10.6% was driven primarily by price increases.

The Corporation generated EBITDA of $35.2 million for the quarter. Excluding impacts of change in estimate related to inventory obsolescence, stock-based compensation and restructuring and other charges, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin were $39.3 million and 9.2% of sales, compared to $37.4 million and 9.4% of sales in 2021. The adjusted EBITDA margin was impacted by inflationary costs, including fuel and wages, and timing of rebates, offset by price increases, product mix and scaling of payroll and operating expenses.

Net earnings for the quarter increased by $3.1 million to $12.1 million. Excluding impacts of change in estimate related to inventory obsolescence, stock-based compensation, restructuring and other charges, amortization of intangibles assets related to the acquisition of GSF Car Parts and write-off of deferred financing costs, adjusted net earnings were $15.7 million, same as 2021, due to a higher tax rate offsetting operational and financing cost gains.

Segmented Fourth Quarter Results

The FinishMaster U.S. segment reported sales of $173.4 million, an increase of 3.4%, mainly from organic growth of 5.0%, offsetting an unfavorable variance in the number of billing days. The increase in organic growth was mainly driven by price increases. EBITDA was $12.9 million for the quarter compared to $15.4 million in 2021. Excluding impacts of stock-based compensation and restructuring and other charges, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by $1.2 million and 1.0% respectively to $14.4 million and 8.3% of sales, from $15.6 million and 9.3% of sales in 2021. This variance is attributable to higher fuel and energy costs, bad debt expenses as opposed to recovery in 2021, as well as higher performance bonuses and timing of rebates. These elements were offset by price increases and higher sales, driving scaling benefits.

The Canadian Automotive Group segment reported sales of $150.4 million. Excluding the impact of unfavorable fluctuation of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar of $10.7 million or 7.9% during the fourth quarter of 2022, sales increased by $25.1 million or 18.5%, compared to the same quarter last year, driven by organic growth of 10.5% and acquisitions over the last twelve months representing 9.1%, offsetting an unfavorable variance in the number of billing days. The increase in organic growth was mainly driven by price increases. This segment reported EBITDA and EBITDA margin of $17.2 million and 11.5% respectively for the quarter compared to $14.7 million and 10.8% in 2021. Excluding impacts of change in estimate related to inventory obsolescence,                    stock-based compensation and restructuring and other charges, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin were respectively $18.1 million and 12.0% of sales, compared to $16.8 million and 12.4% of sales in 2021. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased by 0.4% from foreign currency losses due to the depreciation of the Canadian dollar, higher delivery and travel costs, as well as higher performance bonuses. This was partially offset by price increases, favorable product mix and higher sales, driving scaling benefits.

The GSF Car Parts U.K. segment reported sales of $101.0 million. Excluding the impact of unfavorable fluctuation of the British pound against the US dollar of $15.4 million or 16.0% during the fourth quarter of 2022, sales increased by $19.9 million or 20.7%, mainly driven by organic growth of 20.6%. The increase in organic growth was mainly driven by price increases, the contribution of recently opened greenfield stores, as well as e-commerce sales. This segment reported EBITDA and EBITDA margin of $9.8 million and 9.7% respectively for the quarter compared to $6.5 million and 6.8% in 2021. Excluding impacts of stock-based compensation and restructuring and other charges, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin improved by $2.8 million and 2.5% respectively to $10.2 million and 10.1% of sales, from $7.4 million and 7.6% of sales in 2021. This performance was mainly driven by higher sales driving scaling benefits, timing of vendor rebates , offsetting inflationary fuel and utility costs, higher repair costs due to fleet replacement delays, as well as higher payroll costs.  

Compared to the Year of 2021:

Consolidated sales of $1,731.4 million increased by $118.6 million or 7.4%. Excluding the impact of unfavorable fluctuation of the British pound and the Canadian dollar against the US dollar of $70.0 million or 4.3%, consolidated sales increased by $188.6 million or 11.7%, driven by organic growth with all three segments reporting positive organic growth, ranging between 7.8% and 15.1% for the year. Consolidated organic growth of 10.7% was driven primarily by price increases.

The Corporation generated EBITDA of $159.6 million for the year. Excluding impacts of change in estimate related to inventory obsolescence, stock-based compensation and restructuring and other charges, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin increased by $38.3 million and 1.6% respectively to $185.0 million and 10.7% of sales, from $146.7 million and 9.1% of sales in 2021. This increase is the result of price increases, rebates, improved operational performance, scaling of payroll and operating expenses, offset by certain inflationary costs, including fuel and wages, as well as the timing of certain expenses incurred with respect to new store openings in the U.K. and acquisitions in Canada.

Net earnings for the year increased by $64.1 million to $65.0 million. Excluding impacts of change in estimate related to inventory obsolescence, stock-based compensation, restructuring and other charges, amortization of intangibles assets related to the acquisition of GSF Car Parts, write-off of deferred financing costs and net tax impact of change in rates and reversal of a contingency provision, adjusted net earnings for the current period increased by $37.9 million to $86.8 million from $48.9 million in 2021. This increase is primarily attributable to price increases as well as improved overall operational performance, including reduced depreciation, amortization and net financing costs, net of income tax expense.

The financial information included in the Corporation's documents contains certain performance measures that are inconsistent with GAAP ("non-GAAP and other financial measures"). Non-GAAP and other financial measures are mainly derived from the consolidated financial statements, but do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. The Corporation considers that users may analyze its results based on these measurements, but they should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared under GAAP.

The Corporation's definitions of non-GAAP and other financial measures are based on what management regards as reasonable and are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

The section below presents definitions of non-GAAP and other financial measures as required by National Instrument 52-112 and their reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measures.

Organic growth

This measure consists of quantifying the increase in sales between two given periods, excluding the impact of acquisitions, the loss of sales from the consolidation of company-operated stores, exchange-rate fluctuations and when necessary, variance in the number of billing days.

This measure enables Uni-Select to evaluate the intrinsic trend in the sales generated by its operational base in comparison with the rest of the market.

The following tables reconcile sales to organic growth by segment and on a consolidated basis:

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin

EBITDA represents Earnings before net financing costs, depreciation and amortization and income taxes per the Consolidated Financial Statements. EBITDA margin is a percentage corresponding to the ratio of EBITDA to sales.

Adjusted EBITDA contains certain adjustments, which may affect the comparability of the Corporation's financial results. These adjustments include, among other things, restructuring and other charges, stock-based compensation expenses, write-off of assets as well as change in estimate related to inventory obsolescence. Adjusted EBITDA margin is a percentage corresponding to the ratio of adjusted EBITDA to sales.

The Corporation uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as well as their corresponding margins to assess its performance and that of its business segments. Management believes these non-GAAP and other financial measures, in addition to GAAP measures, provide users with an enhanced understanding of its operating results and increase the transparency of its core results as well as of its segments. Management also believes these measures provide better comparability of its results from one period to another.

The following tables reconcile the EBITDA to adjusted EBITDA by segment and on a consolidated basis:

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

EBT, EBT margin, adjusted EBT and adjusted EBT margin

EBT represents Earnings before income taxes per Consolidated statement of earnings and for segments EBT represents Segment income (loss) reported per note 26 in the Consolidated Financial Statements. EBT margin is a percentage corresponding to the ratio of EBT to sales.

Adjusted EBT contains certain adjustments, which may affect the comparability of the Corporation's financial results. These adjustments include restructuring and other charges, stock-based compensation expenses, change in estimate related to inventory obsolescence, as well as amortization of intangible assets related to The Parts Alliance acquisition (now known as GSF Car Parts). Adjusted EBT margin is a percentage corresponding to the ratio of adjusted EBT to sales.

The Corporation uses EBT and adjusted EBT as well as their respective margins to assess its performance and that of its business segments. Management believes these non-GAAP and other financial measures, in addition to GAAP measures, provide users with an enhanced understanding of its operating results and increase the transparency of its core results as well as of its segments. Management also believes these measures provide better comparability of its results from one period to another.

The following tables reconcile the EBT to adjusted EBT by segment and on a consolidated basis:

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per common share (basic and diluted)

Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per common share (basic and diluted) contain certain adjustments, which may affect the comparability of the Corporation's financial results. These adjustments include, net of income taxes, restructuring and other charges, stock-based compensation expenses, change in estimate related to inventory obsolescence, as well as amortization of intangible assets related to The Parts Alliance acquisition (now known as GSF Car Parts).

For diluted adjusted net earnings, adjusted net earnings are further adjusted for the after-tax interest on the convertible debentures. The exclusion of these items does not indicate that they are non-recurring.

The Corporation uses adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per common share (basic and diluted) to assess its performance. Management believes these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP measures, provide users enhanced understanding of its operating results and increase the transparency of its core results. Management also believes these measures provide better comparability of its results from one period to another.

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

The following is a reconciliation of net earnings, adjusted net earnings and net earnings considered for diluted adjusted net earnings per common share:

The following table presents a reconciliation of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for diluted adjusted net earnings per common share:

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

Free cash flow

This measure corresponds to the cash flows from operating activities according to the consolidated statements of cash flows adjusted for the following items: net acquisitions of property and equipment, net advances to merchant members and incentives granted to customers, as well as acquisitions and development of intangible assets.

Management believes this non-GAAP cash flow measure to be an indicator of financial strength and of operating performance because it shows the amount of funds available to manage growth, repay debt, reinvest in the Corporation and capitalize on various market opportunities that arise. Management considers this measure, in addition to GAAP measures, to provide investors a perspective on its ability to generate liquidity, after making capital investments required to support business operations and long-term value creation.

The following table reconciles cash flows from operating activities to free cash flow:

Available liquidity

This measure, representing cash plus amounts available under the credit facilities in respect of financial covenants, less amounts used under the credit facilities and letters of credit issued, is considered useful by the Corporation to evaluate its ability to meet its short-term liquidity needs as well as to support its growth. Available liquidity is subject to compliance with various covenants contained in the credit facilities agreement.

The following table reconciles the available liquidity:

NON-GAAP AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES (CONTINUED)

Total net debt and total net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio

Total net debt represents the sum of the credit facilities, lease obligations (including the portion due within a year), net of deferred financing costs and cash. Total net debt excludes convertible debentures since they are convertible into common shares of the Corporation. Refer to Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

Total net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio represents total net debt divided by the trailing last four quarters' adjusted EBITDA. This ratio is used by management to evaluate the Corporation's financial leverage, capital structure and financing strategies.

The following table presents a reconciliation of the components and the calculation of Total net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio:
