The PPA for the 2026 acquisitions is preliminary, as we have not obtained and evaluated all of the detailed
information necessary to finalize the opening balance sheet amounts in all respects. We recorded the PPA based
upon information that is currently available and recorded unallocated items as a component of Other non-current
assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We expect all of the goodwill related to U.S. acquisitions in 2026 to be deductible for U.S. federal income tax
purposes.
In the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2026, we recorded $0.4 million and $0.7 million in acquisition-
related expenses as a component of SG&A expense. Comparatively, we recorded $0.1 million and $0.3 million of
acquisition-related expenses in the same period of 2025.

We calculated these amounts by applying our accounting policies and estimates. The results of the acquired stores
have been adjusted to reflect the following: depreciation on a straight-line basis over the expected lives for property
and equipment, accounting for inventory on a specific identification method, and recognition of interest expense for
real estate financing related to stores where we purchased the facility. No nonrecurring proforma adjustments
directly attributable to the acquisitions are included in the reported proforma revenues and earnings.
