Birks Group provides a business update regarding store operations in light of COVID-19 restrictions. As of December 23, 2020, 22 out of 29 stores are open, but several locations in Ontario and Quebec are temporarily closed for in-person shopping due to government mandates. The company anticipates a revenue decline in January 2021 because of these closures and is taking measures to mitigate financial impacts by reducing operating expenses and extending payment terms. Curbside pickup and virtual appointments are available to maintain client engagement.
