Jack in the Box Inc. Reports Second Quarter FY 2012 Earnings; Updates Guidance for FY 2012
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 16, 2012--Jack in the Box Inc. (NASDAQ: JACK) today reported net earnings of $21.6 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, for the second quarter ended April 15, 2012, compared with net earnings of $6.8 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2011.
Operating earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure which the company defines as diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis less gains from refranchising, were $0.27 per diluted share compared with $0.12 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measurements to GAAP results is attached to this release. Included in operating earnings per share were re-image incentive payments of $0.8 million, or approximately $0.01 per share in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to $1.4 million, or approximately $0.02 per share in the prior year quarter.
During fiscal 2012, the company has been engaged in a comprehensive review of its overhead structure, including evaluating opportunities for outsourcing, restructuring of certain functions and workforce reductions. As a result, restructuring charges of $1.5 million, or approximately $0.02 per share, were recorded during the quarter which relate primarily to severance costs for positions that were eliminated. These charges are included in “impairment and other charges, net” in the accompanying consolidated statement of earnings. The company expects to incur additional restructuring charges during fiscal 2012 relating to this review.
Gains from refranchising contributed approximately $0.21 per diluted share for the quarter as compared with approximately $0.01 per diluted share in the prior year quarter.

Linda A. Lang, chairman and chief executive officer, said, “Jack in the Box company same-store sales increased 5.6 percent in the second quarter, driven by a combination of traffic growth and an increase in average check. We believe these results have been largely driven by the investments we have made to enhance the entire guest experience at the Jack in the Box brand, including the substantial completion of our system-wide re-image program in January.
“Qdoba’s same-store sales in the second quarter increased 3.8 percent for company restaurants and 3.0 percent system-wide. Importantly, company restaurant operating margin at Qdoba improved substantially during the quarter,” Lang said.
Consolidated restaurant operating margin was 15.5 percent of sales in the second quarter of 2012, compared with 12.3 percent of sales in the year-ago quarter.
Food and packaging costs in the quarter were 80 basis points lower than prior year. The decrease resulted from the benefit of price increases and favorable product mix as well as a greater proportion of Qdoba company restaurants which combined to more than offset commodity inflation. Overall commodity costs were approximately 3 percent higher in the quarter, driven by higher costs for most commodities other than produce and poultry.
Payroll and employee benefits costs were 120 basis points lower than the year-ago quarter, reflecting the leverage from same-store sales increases and the benefits of refranchising. These decreases were offset by higher levels of incentive compensation.
Occupancy and other costs decreased 130 basis points in the second quarter due primarily to leverage from same-store sales increases and the benefits of refranchising. These decreases were partially offset by higher debit card fees, higher depreciation expense related to the Jack in the Box re-image program and higher rent expense as a percentage of sales due to the greater proportion of company-operated Qdoba restaurants versus the prior year.
SG&A expense for the second quarter increased by $1.9 million and was 10.8 percent of revenues as compared to 10.4 percent in the prior year quarter. The increase in SG&A was attributable primarily to higher incentive compensation accruals, increased G&A related to Qdoba growth, and higher pension and pre-opening costs which were partially offset by lower advertising and overhead costs resulting from the company’s refranchising strategy. Mark-to-market adjustments on investments supporting the company’s non-qualified retirement plans positively impacted SG&A by $1.1 million in the second quarter as compared to a positive impact of $1.3 million in last year’s second quarter, resulting in a year-over-year increase in SG&A of $0.2 million.
Gains on the sale of 37 company-operated Jack in the Box restaurants to franchisees totaled $14.1 million in the second quarter, or approximately $0.21 per diluted share, compared with $0.9 million, or approximately $0.01 per diluted share, in the year-ago quarter from the sale of 26 restaurants. For the second quarter of 2012 average gains were $380,000 per restaurant, and total proceeds related to refranchising were $20.7 million, or an average of $560,000 per restaurant.
Impairment and other charges increased in the quarter to $5.1 million from $4.5 million a year ago. This increase related primarily to restructuring charges of $1.5 million discussed above, the impairment of one underperforming Jack in the Box restaurant in 2012 and an increase in costs associated with closed restaurants. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in accelerated depreciation related to the company’s re-image program.
As previously disclosed, the company acquired 25 franchised Qdoba restaurants in two markets during the second quarter of 2012 for $33.0 million. These acquisitions are expected to be accretive to fiscal 2012 restaurant operating margin and earnings per share.
In November 2011, the company’s board of directors approved a new $100 million stock-buyback program that expires in November 2013. The company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock during the second quarter; and as of April 15, 2012, $100 million remains available under this authorization.
Restaurant openings
Seven new Jack in the Box restaurants opened in the second quarter, including 3 franchised locations, compared with 8 new restaurants opened system-wide during the same quarter last year, of which 6 were franchised.
In the second quarter, 8 Qdoba restaurants opened, including 6 franchised locations, versus 10 new restaurants in the year-ago quarter, of which 5 were franchised.
At April 15, 2012, the company’s system total comprised 2,242 Jack in the Box restaurants, including 1,641 franchised locations, and 605 Qdoba restaurants, including 316 franchised locations.

JACK IN THE BOX INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASUREMENTS TO GAAP RESULTS (Unaudited) |
|||||||||
|
Operating earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by the company as diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis less gains from refranchising. Management believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides important supplemental information to assist investors in analyzing the performance of the company’s core business. In addition, the company uses operating earnings per share in establishing performance goals for purposes of executive compensation. The company encourages investors to rely upon its GAAP numbers, but includes this non-GAAP financial measure as a supplemental metric to assist investors. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, this non-GAAP financial measure used by the company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. |
