Hudson’s Bay Company Scotiabank Back to School Conference

September 17, 2013

This Presentation contains forward-looking statements about HBC’s current and future plans, expectations and intentions, results, levels of activity, performance, goals or achievements or any other future events or developments. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as “expect”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “foresee”, “could”, “estimate”, “goal”, “intend”, “plan”, “seek”, “strive”, “will”, “may” and “should” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements reflect current estimates, beliefs and assumptions, which are based on HBC’s perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors management believes are appropriate in the circumstances. HBC’s estimates, beliefs and assumptions are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive and other uncertainties and contingencies regarding future events and as such, are subject to change. HBC can give no assurance that such estimates, beliefs and assumptions will prove to be correct.

Numerous risks and uncertainties could cause the combined company’s actual results to differ materially from the estimates, beliefs and assumptions expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to: failure to realize anticipated results, including revenue growth, anticipated cost savings or operating efficiencies from the combined company’s major initiatives, including those from restructuring; failure to realize benefits from investments in the combined company’s IT systems, including the combined company’s IT systems implementation, or unanticipated results from these initiatives; the inability of the combined company’s IT infrastructure to support the requirements of the combined company’s business; significant competition in the retail industry; changing consumer preferences; changing consumer spending; the prospect of unfavourable economic and political conditions; the seasonal nature of the combined company’s business; unseasonable weather conditions or natural disasters; the combined company’s ability to continue to improve same store sales; the combined company’s ability to retain a senior management team who possess specialized market knowledge, the combined company’s dependence on its ability to attract and retain quality employees and maintaining good relations with non-unionized and unionized employees; the inability of the combined company to manage inventory to minimize the impact of obsolete or excess inventory and to control shrink; the impact of potential environmental liabilities; failure to respond to changes in consumer tastes and buying patterns; reliance on the performance and retention of third-party service providers including those associated with the combined company’s supply chain; supply and quality control issues with vendors; other disruptions to the combined company’s distribution operations or supply chain; damage to the reputation of brands promoted by the combined company, or to the reputation of any supplier or manufacturer of these brands; product quality and product safety risks which could expose the combined company to product liability claims and negative publicity; increased commodity prices, including for cotton, that may affect the combined company’s profitability; the combined company’s ability to execute its plan to reduce operating expenses; the combined company’s ability to comply with the covenants in its credit facilities; breaches of privacy; fluctuations in the value of the C$ dollar in relation to the US$; the combined company’s significant level of indebtedness; risks associated with doing business abroad; risks associated with operating freehold and leasehold property; the combined company’s ability to maintain the brand value of its various retail banners; current store locations may become less desirable; inability to protect trademarks and other proprietary rights; risks related to size and scale; insurance related risks; risks related to the combined company’s ability to maintain financial and management processes and controls; volatile market price for the combined company’s Common Shares; the combined company’s ability to pay dividends is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient income; changes in the combined company’s income, commodity, other tax and regulatory liabilities including changes in tax laws, regulations or future assessments; any requirement of the combined company to make contributions to its registered funded defined benefit pension plans, post-employment benefits plan or the multi-employer pension plans in which it participates in excess of those currently contemplated; the risk that the combined company would experience a financial loss if its counterparties fail to meet their obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of their contracts with the combined company; the inability of the combined company to collect on its credit card receivables; failure of the combined company to lease or obtain suitable store locations on economically favourable terms; and events or series of events may cause business interruptions.

Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. Other risks and uncertainties not presently known to HBC or that HBC presently believes are not material could also cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed in its forward-looking statements. Additional information on these and other factors that could affect the operations or financial results of HBC are included in reports filed by HBC with applicable securities regulatory authorities and may be accessed through the SEDAR website (www.sedar.com).

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect HBC’s expectations only as of the date of this Presentation. HBC disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

This Presentation makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of HBC’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We use non-IFRS measures to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. We also believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, prepare annual operating budgets and assess our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements.
