Review of second quarter results

The company said, wholesale revenue for the quarter was 152.1 million Canadian dollars (119 million dollars) compared to 122.4 million Canadian dollars (96 million dollars) in the second quarter of fiscal 2017, driven by growth across all regions.

Direct-to-consumer revenue increased to 20.3 million Canadian dollars (15.9 million dollars), driven by strong growth in the North American e-commerce business and incremental revenue from new retail stores and e-commerce sites which were not operating in the same period last year.
