“Starbucks leveraged food and beverage innovation, an elevated in-store experience and personalized digital connections to our customers to deliver another quarter of record financial and operating performance, despite the softness impacting our principal sectors overall,” said Kevin Johnson, Starbucks president and ceo. “Continued focus on execution against our strategic priorities enabled us to gain share and positions us well for the future.”

"Starbucks once again reported record operating and financial performance in Q3 - reflecting the back-half acceleration we've been anticipating," said Scott Maw, Starbucks cfo. "Nonetheless, despite posting record performance in Q3 and further extending our lead compared to the industry overall, the combination of trends in the quarter and ongoing macro pressures impacting the retail and restaurant sectors has us a bit more cautious going into Q4."

Company Announces Strategic Actions to Advance Growth Agenda and Increase Returns
Starbucks also announced several strategic actions to optimize its store portfolio, strengthen its core, accelerate execution against its long-term growth strategy and further increase returns on capital.

Company to Assume Full Ownership of the Mainland China Market
Starbucks earlier today announced plans to consolidate its business operations across Mainland China by acquiring the 50% of Shanghai Starbucks Coffee Corporation that it didn’t already own from JV partners Uni-President Enterprises Corporation ("UPEC") and President Chain Store Corporation ("PCSC"). Customers in China have embraced the Starbucks brand and customer experience since the company opened its first store in the market 18 years ago. Starbucks stores in China are among the most innovative, coffee-forward Starbucks stores in the world, consistently generating strong revenue and same-store sales growth, record AUV’s and world-leading returns on investment. Mainland China is Starbucks largest and fastest growing international market with 2,800 stores in 130 cities, employing nearly 40,000 partners. Through this acquisition, the largest single acquisition in the company's history, Starbucks will assume 100% ownership of approximately 1,300 Starbucks stores in 25 cities in the Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provinces.

Also as announced earlier today, concurrently with the purchase of the East China JV, UPEC and PCSC will acquire Starbucks 50% interest in President Starbucks Coffee Taiwan Limited, and assume 100% ownership of Starbucks operations in Taiwan. Founded in 1997, the Taiwan JV currently operates approximately 410 Starbucks stores in Taiwan.

Company to Close all 379 Teavana Retail Stores
As reported on the Q2 call, many of the company’s principally mall-based Teavana retail stores have been persistently underperforming. Following a strategic review of the Teavana store business, the company concluded that despite efforts to reverse the trend through creative merchandising and new store designs, the underperformance was likely to continue. As a result, Starbucks will close all 379 Teavana stores over the coming year, with the majority closing by Spring 2018. The approximately 3,300 partners impacted by these closures will receive opportunities to apply for positions at Starbucks stores, as Starbucks remains on track to create 240,000 new jobs globally and 68,000 in the U.S. over the next five years.

Financial Targets
The company will discuss updates to its Q4 and full year fiscal 2017 financial targets on its third quarter fiscal 2017 earnings conference call today.

Consolidated net revenues were $5.7 billion in Q3 FY17, an increase of 8% over Q3 FY16. The increase was primarily driven by incremental revenues from the opening of 2,341 net new stores over the past 12 months and 4% growth in global comparable store sales.

Consolidated operating income grew 2% to $1,044.2 million in Q3 FY17, up from $1,022.3 million in Q3 FY16. Consolidated operating margin declined 110 basis points to 18.4% primarily due to goodwill and store asset impairments, which drove a 210 basis point decline, largely related to the change in strategic direction for Teavana. Excluding these impairments, margin expanded by 100 basis points driven primarily by sales leverage, partially offset by increased partner investments, largely in the Americas segment.

Net revenues for the Americas segment were $4.0 billion in Q3 FY17, an increase of 10% over Q3 FY16. The increase was driven by incremental revenues from 1,002 net new store openings over the past 12 months and 5% growth in comparable store sales.

Operating income of $974.8 million in Q3 FY17 grew 8% versus $898.5 million in Q3 FY16. Operating margin of 24.4% declined 20 basis points primarily due to higher investments in our store partners (employees), the impact of product sales mix and higher commodity costs. These decreases were largely offset by sales leverage.

Net revenues for the China/Asia Pacific segment grew 9% over Q3 FY16 to $840.6 million in Q3 FY17. The increase was primarily driven by incremental revenues from 1,056 net new store openings over the past 12 months and 1% growth in comparable store sales, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation.

Q3 FY17 operating income of $223.8 million grew 22% over Q3 FY16 operating income of $182.8 million. Operating margin expanded 280 basis points to 26.6% primarily driven by the transition to China's value added tax structure in Q3 FY16. Also contributing was higher income from our joint venture operations in the region.

(700) bps

Net revenues for the EMEA segment were $249.9 million in Q3 FY17, a 9% decrease versus Q3 FY16. The decrease was primarily driven by the absence of revenue related to the sale of our Germany retail operations in Q3 FY16 as part of the ongoing shift to more licensed stores in the region, as well as unfavorable foreign currency translation. Partially offsetting these decreases were incremental revenues from the opening of 311 net new licensed stores over the past 12 months.

Operating income of $9.8 million in Q3 FY17 declined 67% versus operating income of $29.9 million in Q3 FY16. Operating margin declined 700 basis points to 3.9% due to a partial impairment of goodwill for our Switzerland market, which drove a 720 basis point decline. The remaining 20 basis point expansion was driven by leverage due to the shift in the portfolio towards more licensed stores, primarily driven by the sale of our Germany retail operations in Q3 FY16, and was partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange.

Net revenues for the Channel Development segment grew 9% over Q3 FY16 to $478.7 million in Q3 FY17. The increase was primarily driven by higher international sales, increased sales of premium single-serve and packaged coffee products, and higher foodservice sales.

Operating income of $210.2 million in Q3 FY17 increased 12% compared to Q3 FY16. Operating margin expanded 130 basis points to 43.9% primarily driven by lower coffee costs and higher income from the North American Coffee Partnership.

The increase in the operating loss in Q3 FY17 compared to Q3 FY16 was primarily due to the goodwill and asset impairment charges as a result of our strategy to focus on Teavana tea within Starbucks stores.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

In addition to the GAAP results provided in this release, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or alternatives for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Our non-GAAP financial measures of non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP EPS exclude the below listed items. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP EPS are operating income, operating margin and diluted net earnings per share, respectively.
Non-GAAP Exclusion
Rationale
Goodwill and other asset impairments
Management excludes Teavana related goodwill and store asset impairment and Switzerland goodwill impairment. These items do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company’s future operating performance or comparisons to the company’s past operating performance.
Starbucks Japan acquisition-related items
Management excludes Starbucks Japan acquisition-related transaction costs as these items do not reflect expected future expenses and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's future operating performance or comparisons to the company's past operating performance. In addition, management excludes Starbucks Japan integration costs and amortization of the acquired intangible assets when evaluating performance because these expenses are not representative of our core business operations. Although these items will affect earnings per share beyond the current fiscal year, the majority of these costs will be recognized over a finite period of time. More specifically, integration costs are expected to be concentrated in the first several years post-acquisition. Additionally, the amounts of the acquired intangible assets are specific to the transaction, and the related future amortization was fixed at the time of acquisition and generally cannot subsequently be changed or influenced by management.
Sale of Germany retail operations
Management excludes the net gain, associated costs and changes in estimated indemnifications related to the sale of our Germany retail operations as these items do not reflect future gains, losses or tax impacts and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's past or future operating performance.
Other tax matters
Management excludes incremental tax benefits in the U.S. as these tax benefits do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's past or future operating performance.
Non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP EPS may have limitations as analytical tools. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company's results as reported under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than the company does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
