Notes to readers
In this document, unless otherwise indicated, all financial data are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the term
"dollars" as well as the symbol "$" designate Canadian dollars. In this document, we also use non-IFRS financial measures for which a complete definition is
presented below and for which a reconciliation to financial information in accordance with IFRS is presented at the end of this presentation and in Note 3
"Segmented Information" to the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended October 29, 2023. These measures should be considered
as a complement to financial performance measures in accordance with IFRS. They do not substitute and are not superior to them.
Forward-looking information
Our public communications often contain oral or written forward-looking statements which are based on the expectations of management and inherently subject
to a certain number of risks and uncertainties, known and unknown. By their very nature, forward-looking statements are derived from both general and specific
assumptions. The Corporation cautions against undue reliance on such statements since actual results or events may differ materially from the expectations
expressed or implied in them. Forward-looking statements may include observations concerning the Corporation's objectives, strategy, anticipated financial
results and business outlook. The Corporation's future performance may also be affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond the Corporation's
will or control. These factors include, but are not limited to the impact of digital product development and adoption as well as regulations or legislation regarding
door-to-door distribution on the printing and distribution of paper flyers, inflation and recession risks, economic conditions and geopolitical uncertainty,
environmental risks as well as adoption of new regulations or amendments and changes to consumption habits, the risk of an operational disruption that could
be harmful to its ability to meet deadlines, the worldwide outbreak of a disease, a virus or any other contagious disease could have an adverse impact on the
Corporation's operations, the ability to generate organic long-term growth and face competition, a significant increase in the cost of raw materials, the availability
of those materials and energy consumption could have an adverse impact on the Corporation's activities, the ability to complete acquisitions and properly
integrate them, cybersecurity, data protection, warehousing and usage, the impact of digital product development and adoption on the demand for printed
products other than flyers, the failure of patents, trademarks and confidentiality agreements to protect intellectual property, a difficulty to attract and retain
employees in the main operating sectors, the safety and quality of packaging products used in the food industry, bad debts from certain customers, import and
export controls, duties, tariffs or taxes, exchange rate fluctuations, increase in market interest rates with respect to our financial instruments as well as
availability of capital at a reasonable cost, the legal risks related to its activities and the compliance of its activities with applicable regulations, the impact of
major market fluctuations on the solvency of defined benefit pensions plans, changes in tax legislation and disputes with tax authorities or amendments to
statutory tax rates in force, the impact of impairment tests on the value of assets and a conflict of interest between the controlling shareholder and other
shareholders. The main risks, uncertainties and factors that could influence actual results are described in the Management's Discussion and Analysis for the
year ended October 29, 2023 and in the latest Annual Information Form.
Unless otherwise indicated by the Corporation, forward-looking statements do not take into account the potential impact of non-recurring or other unusual items,
nor of disposals, business combinations, mergers or acquisitions which may be announced or entered into after the date of December 12, 2023. The forward-
looking statements in this presentation are made pursuant to the "safe harbour” provisions of applicable Canadian securities legislation. The forward-looking
statements in this presentation are based on current expectations and information available as at December 12, 2023. Such forward-looking information may
also be found in other documents filed with Canadian securities regulators or in other communications. The Corporation's management disclaims any intention
or obligation to update or revise these statements unless otherwise required by the securities authorities.
