New Book Offers CRE Owners a Blueprint to Boost NOI,

Business Wire24-06-2025
AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Commercial real estate owners face data reckoning. Fragmented systems, vendor lock-in, rising OpEx, and an AI-powered future demand a new kind of leadership. In their groundbreaking new book, Peak Property Performance: Game-Changing AI and Digital Strategies for Commercial Real Estate (Fast Company Press, June 24, 2025, $26.95), technology entrepreneur Bill Douglas and systems architect Drew Hall deliver a bold, step-by-step framework to help CRE leaders take control of their digital infrastructure, unlock hidden asset value, and build future-proof portfolios.
The authors introduce their proprietary 5C™ Framework, a five-step roadmap to transform any property into a data-powered, AI-ready asset:
Clarify – Audit every digital asset and data source to uncover opportunities.
Connect – Unify fragmented systems into a seamless digital nervous system.
Collect – Build a culture where the right people, data, and tools align.
Coordinate – Ensure intelligent, real-time systems coordination and apply AI.
Control – Act on the insights that drive NOI and competitive advantage.
Drawing from decades of work with office, multifamily, and mixed-use portfolios, Peak Property Performance speaks directly to owners, developers, and capital partners navigating a rapidly digitizing CRE market. The authors expose how most portfolios leak value through fragmented systems and untapped data—and show how to reclaim that power, safely and profitably.
'Data ownership is the new location,' says Douglas. 'And if you're not monetizing your building's data and digital infrastructure, someone else is.' Peak Property Performance is available on Amazon and major retailers today. Learn more at www.peakpropertyperformance.com.

Birks Group Inc. Reports Fiscal 2025 Results

MONTREAL--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Birks Group Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Birks Group') (NYSE American: BGI), today reported its financial results for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2025. All figures presented herein are in Canadian dollars. For the fiscal year ended March 29, 2025 ('fiscal 2025'), the Company reported net sales of $177.8 million, a decrease of $7.5 million or 4.0%, from the comparable fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 ('fiscal 2024'). Comparable store sales for fiscal 2025 decreased by 3.4% compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2024. The decrease in net sales and comparable store sales is mainly due to lower sales of branded jewelry due to the exit of a jewelry brand from two stores. When excluding the third-party jewelry brand movement, the comparable store sales increased by 6.9%, mainly driven by timepiece sales. The Company reported gross profit of $66.3 million, or 37.3% of net sales, compared to $73.6 million, or 39.7% of net sales in fiscal 2024, due to lower sales volume resulting from the exit of a jewelry brand from two stores. Gross profit as a percentage of sales for fiscal 2025 was 37.3%, a decrease of 240 basis points from the gross profit as a percentage of sales of 39.7% for fiscal 2024 as a result of the sales mix with decreased sales from third-party branded jewelry, as well as a foreign exchange loss. Mr. Jean-Christophe Bédos, President and Chief Executive Officer of Birks Group, commented: 'Although our net sales and comparable store sales for fiscal 2025 are lower than fiscal 2024, when excluding the effect of third-party jewelry brand movement, comparable store sales are positive year-over-year, as a result of a strong retail performance and product offering particularly in our third-party branded timepieces. In fiscal 2025, we opened two new stores under the TimeVallée and Birks brands and continued to benefit from the fiscal 2024 renovations in our Chinook and Laval locations. These initiatives along with our recent announcement of the acquisition of the watch and jewelry business of European Boutique will continue to generate greater sales and contribute to improve our results.' Mr. Bédos further commented: 'I would like to thank our teams for their tireless efforts. The results achieved in fiscal 2025 are a testament to our commitment to our customers and I am grateful for the unwavering efforts of all our employees and the implementation of various initiatives during this past year to enhance our product offering and customer experience.' Financial overview for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2025: Total net sales for fiscal 2025 were $177.8 million compared to $185.3 million in fiscal 2024, a decrease of $7.5 million, or 4.0%. The decrease in net sales in fiscal 2025 was primarily driven by the results of the Company's retail channel. Net retail sales in fiscal 2025 were $7.3 million lower than fiscal 2024, primarily due to the decrease in third-party branded jewelry sales, following the exit of a jewelry brand from two stores, partially offset by an increase in branded timepiece sales throughout the retail network; Comparable store sales decreased by 3.4% in fiscal 2025 compared to fiscal 2024 mainly due to lower third-party branded jewelry sales following the exit of a jewelry brand from two stores, partially offset by an increase in third-party branded timepiece sales and an increase in average sales transaction value. When excluding the third-party jewelry brand movement, the comparable store sales increased by 6.9%, mainly driven by timepiece sales; Total gross profit for fiscal 2025 was $66.3 million, or 37.3% of net sales, compared to $73.6 million, or 39.7% of net sales, in fiscal 2024. This decrease in gross profit was primarily due to the decreased sales volume experienced during fiscal 2025, due to third-party branded jewelry sales following the exit of a jewelry brand from two stores, and a foreign exchange loss due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar, partially offset by the increased sales of third-party branded timepieces. The decrease of 240 basis points in gross margin percentage resulted primarily from the sales mix with decreased sales from third-party branded jewelry, as well as a foreign exchange loss, partially offset by an increase in branded timepiece sales; SG&A expenses in fiscal 2025 were $59.5 million, or 33.5% of net sales, compared to $65.7 million, or 35.5% of net sales, in fiscal 2024, a decrease of $6.2 million. The main drivers of the decrease in SG&A expenses in fiscal 2025 include lower occupancy costs ($2.7 million) mainly due to store closures and store lease modifications, lower marketing costs ($2.3 million) mainly due to lower brand development initiatives, lower compensation costs ($0.5 million) mainly due to lower sales volume and head count reductions, lower general operating costs ($0.4 million) and lower non-cash based compensation expense ($0.3 million) mainly due to fluctuations in the Company's stock price during the fiscal year. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses in fiscal 2025 decreased by 200 basis points as compared to fiscal 2024, reflecting the Company's focus on cost management and containment; The Company's adjusted EBITDA (1) for fiscal 2025 was $9.2 million, a decrease of $0.8 million, compared to adjusted EBITDA (1) of $10.0 million for fiscal 2024; The Company's reported operating loss for fiscal 2025 was $5.5 million, a decrease of $6.7 million, compared to a reported operating income of $1.2 million for fiscal 2024. The operating loss in fiscal 2025 includes an impairment of long-lived assets of $4.6 million related to the write-down of capitalized software costs associated with the delay in completing the implementation of the Company's ERP system; The Company's recognized interest and other financing costs were $9.7 million in fiscal 2025, an increase of $1.7 million, compared to recognized interest and other financing costs of $8.0 million in fiscal 2024. This increase is mainly due to an increase in the average amount outstanding on the amended credit facility, additional borrowings, and a foreign exchange loss of $1.0 million in fiscal 2025 versus a foreign exchange gain of $0.2 million in fiscal 2024 on our U.S. dollar denominated debt; The Company recognized a net loss for fiscal 2025 of $12.8 million, or $0.66 per share, compared to a net loss for fiscal 2024 of $4.6 million, or $0.24 per share.

Additional information can be found on Birks' web site, NON-GAAP MEASURES The Company reports financial information in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ('U.S. GAAP'). The Company's performance is monitored and evaluated using various sales and earnings measures that are adjusted to include or exclude amounts from the most directly comparable GAAP measure ('non-GAAP measures'). The Company presents such non-GAAP measures in reporting its financial results to assist in business decision-making and to provide key performance information to senior management. The Company believes that this additional information provided to investors and other external stakeholders will allow them to evaluate the Company's operating results using the same financial measures and metrics used by the Company in evaluating performance. The Company does not, nor does it suggest that investors and other external stakeholders should, consider non-GAAP measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. In addition to our results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use non-GAAP measures including 'EBITDA' and 'Adjusted EBITDA'. EBITDA 'EBITDA' is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense and other financing costs, income taxes expense (recovery) and depreciation and amortization.

Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $2.3 million as compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Results of Operations Net interest income was $15.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $14.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Net interest margin for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to 3.57% from 3.71% for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Noninterest income decreased $166,000 to $540,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to lower service charges on deposit accounts and the absence of a gain on the sale of other real estate recorded in 2024.

Total gross loans increased $17.0 million to $731.1 million at June 30, 2025 from $714.1 million at December 31, 2024.
