Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2012 Results and Business Review

Comparable Net Bakery-Cafe Sales Growth

In the fourth quarter fiscal 2012, Company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales increased 5.1%, franchise-operated comparable net bakery-cafe sales increased 4.7%, and system-wide comparable net bakery-cafe sales increased 4.9% compared to the comparable period in fiscal 2011. Two year Company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales increased 11.0%, two year franchise-operated comparable net bakery-cafe sales increased 7.9%, and two year system-wide comparable net bakery-cafe sales increased 9.3%.

The Company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales increase of 5.1% in the fourth quarter fiscal 2012 was comprised of a year-over-year transaction decline of 0.3% and average check growth of 5.4%. The Company estimates the impact of Hurricane Sandy resulted in a transaction loss of approximately 0.3% in the fourth quarter fiscal 2012. Average check growth was comprised of retail price increases of approximately 2.5% and positive mix impact of approximately 2.9%. A schedule of comparable net bakery-cafe sales information is attached as Schedule III.

Operating Margin

In the fourth quarter fiscal 2012, the Company generated operating margin improvement of approximately 200 basis points compared to the fourth quarter fiscal 2011. This increase was driven primarily by higher bakery-cafe margins and lower general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses were lower primarily due to a $5 million one-time pre-tax charge in the fourth quarter fiscal 2011. Excluding this one-time charge, the Company generated year-over-year operating margin improvement of approximately 100 basis points in the fourth quarter fiscal 2012.

New Bakery-Cafe Development and AWS

During the fourth quarter fiscal 2012, the Company opened 18 new bakery-cafes and its franchisees opened 14 new bakery-cafes. For the full year fiscal 2012, the Company and its franchisees opened 123 new bakery-cafes (59 Company-owned and 64 franchise-operated). As a result, there were 1,652 bakery-cafes open system-wide as of December 25, 2012. 

		Company-owned			Franchise-operated			Total System
Bakery-cafes as of September 25, 2012		792			833			1,625
Bakery-cafes opened		18			14			32
Bakery-cafes closed		(1	)		(4	)		(5	)
Bakery-cafes as of December 25, 2012		809			843			1,652

Average weekly sales ("AWS") for Company-owned new bakery-cafes for full year fiscal 2012 was a record $47,029 compared to $41,637 in full year fiscal 2011. AWS for franchise-operated new bakery-cafes for full year fiscal 2012 was a record $46,781 compared to $41,438 in full year fiscal 2011. A schedule of the fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2012 AWS is attached as Schedule II.

Use of Capital

During the fourth quarter fiscal 2012, the Company repurchased 124,100 shares at an average share price of $161.00. The share repurchase had a nominal impact on the Company's fourth quarter fiscal 2012 earnings per diluted share. The Company has approximately $580 million available under its existing $600 million repurchase authorization as of the date of this release.

Bill Moreton, President and Co-CEO, commented, "We are pleased to report our fifth consecutive year of 20% plus EPS growth driven in large part by our 6.5% comparable store sales increase. Our philosophy of continued investment in the quality of our food, marketing, and operations is driving this success."

Full Year 2013 Targets

Full Year Fiscal 2013 Targets

Diluted EPS Target

The Company is maintaining its targeted full year fiscal 2013 diluted earnings per share growth rate of 17% to 19% even after higher than previously targeted fiscal 2012 diluted earnings per share. The diluted earnings per share growth target includes the favorable impact of the 53rd week in fiscal 2013 but does not assume additional share repurchases.

The full year fiscal 2013 diluted earnings per share growth target is based on the following key assumptions:

Comparable Net Bakery-Cafe Sales Growth

The Company is maintaining its target for Company-owned comparable bakery-cafe sales growth for fiscal 2013 of 4.5% to 5.5%.

Operating Margin

The Company's fiscal 2013 EPS growth target assumes its operating margin will be flat to up 50 basis points when compared to fiscal 2012. This target reflects incremental investments to provide greater access for customers, increased operational capabilities, and improvement to the Company's core enterprise systems.

New Bakery-Cafe Development and AWS

The Company's fiscal 2013 new bakery-cafe target is now 115 to 125 system-wide bakery-cafe openings and the average weekly net sales performance target for new Company-owned bakery-cafes remains at $40,000 to $42,000.

First Quarter Fiscal 2013 Outlook

Establishing First Quarter Fiscal 2013 Targets

Diluted EPS Target

The Company's first quarter fiscal 2013 diluted earnings per share target assumes earnings per diluted share of $1.62 to $1.66, which would represent an increase of 16% to 19% in the first quarter fiscal 2013 versus the comparable period in fiscal 2012.

The first quarter fiscal 2013 diluted earnings per share target includes the following key assumptions:

Comparable Net Bakery-Cafe Sales Growth

The range for the Company's first quarter fiscal 2013 Company-owned comparable bakery-cafe sales growth is targeted at 4.0% to 5.0% versus the comparable period in fiscal 2012.

The Company announced today Company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales in the first 41 days of the first quarter fiscal 2013 were up approximately 3.9%. The comparable net bakery-cafe sales growth for the same period in fiscal 2012 was approximately 8.9%, which was aided by favorable weather in 2012. As a result, two year Company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales increased 12.8% in the first 41 days of the first quarter fiscal 2013.

Operating Margin Target

In the first quarter fiscal 2013, the Company is targeting operating margin improvement of 25 to 75 basis points, primarily due to favorable bakery-cafe margins.

CFO Hire

As announced in a separate press release today, Roger Matthews will be joining the Company as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer effective March 18, 2013. Pat Kelly, who has served as the Company's Interim CFO since April 2012, will remain in place until the end of March to ensure a smooth transition.

Concluding Comment

Ron Shaich, Chairman and Co-CEO, commented, "We believe that our consistent financial performance is the outgrowth of our long-term strategy of driving competitive advantage through the quality, craftsmanship, and innovation of our menu offerings; the comfort and warmth of our bakery-cafe environments; and the dedication and passion of our associates. We believe the continued investments we are making in all of these areas position Panera well for continued, long-term earnings growth in our targeted range of 15 to 20%."

Notes:

The Company will host a conference call that will be broadcast on the Internet at 8:30 A.M. Eastern Time on Wednesday, February 6, 2013, to discuss the fourth quarter fiscal 2012 results, preliminary comparable net bakery-cafe sales results for the first 41 days of the first quarter fiscal 2013 and first quarter and full year targets and business outlook for fiscal 2013. To access the call or view a copy of this release, go to http://www.panerabread.com/investor. Access to the call will be made available for 14 days after the call, and the release will be archived for one year.

We include in this release information on Company-owned, franchise-operated, and system-wide comparable net bakery-cafe sales percentages. Company-owned comparable net bakery-cafe sales percentages are based on net sales from Company-owned bakery-cafes included in our base store bakery-cafes. Franchise-operated comparable net bakery-cafe sales percentages are based on net sales from franchised bakery-cafes, as reported by franchisees, that are included in our base store bakery-cafes. Acquired Company-owned and franchise-operated bakery-cafes and other restaurant or bakery-cafe concepts are included in the Company's comparable net bakery-cafe sales percentages after it has acquired a 100 percent ownership interest and if such acquisition occurred prior to the first day of the Company's prior fiscal year. Comparable net bakery-cafe sales exclude closed locations. 

The Company does not record franchise-operated net bakery-cafe sales as revenues. However, royalty revenues are calculated based on a percentage of franchise-operated net bakery-cafe sales, as reported by franchisees. The Company uses franchise-operated and net system-wide sales information internally in connection with store development decisions, planning, and budgeting analyses. The Company believes franchise-operated and net system-wide sales information is useful in assessing consumer acceptance of its brand; facilitates an understanding of its financial performance and the overall direction and trends of sales and operating income; helps the Company appreciate the effectiveness of its advertising and marketing initiatives which its franchisees also contribute based on a percentage of their net sales; and provides information that is relevant for comparison within the industry.
