We believe global restaurant and comparable sales growth information, as defined in the table above, is useful in analyzing our results since our franchisees pay royalties that are based on a percentage of franchise sales. Franchise sales generate commissary revenue in the United States and in certain international markets. Global restaurant and comparable sales growth information is also useful in analyzing industry trends and the strength of our brand. Franchise restaurant sales are not included in company revenues.

Revenue and Operating Highlights

All revenue and operating highlights below are compared to the same period of the prior year, unless otherwise noted.

Revenue Highlights

Consolidated revenues increased $44.1 million, or 12.7%, for the third quarter of 2014 and increased $121.5 million, or 11.6%, for the nine months ended September 28, 2014. The increases in revenues were primarily due to the following:

  • Domestic company-owned restaurant sales increased $16.4 million, or 10.8%, and $51.6 million, or 11.1%, for the three and nine months, respectively, primarily due to increases of 8.3% and 9.1% in comparable sales.
  • North America franchise royalty revenue increased approximately $2.7 million, or 14.0%, and $5.3 million, or 8.9%, for the three and nine months, respectively, primarily due to increases of 7.1% and 7.2% in comparable sales. The three-month period was also favorably impacted by lower performance-based royalty incentives.
  • Domestic commissary sales increased $11.2 million, or 8.1%, and $41.9 million, or 9.9%, for the three and nine months, respectively, due to increases in the prices of certain commodities, primarily cheese, and increases in sales volumes for the nine-month period.
  • Other sales increased $9.8 million, or 72.2%, and $11.1 million, or 28.7%, for the three and nine months, respectively, primarily due to point-of-sale system ("FOCUS") equipment sales to franchisees. See the "FOCUS Update" section for additional information.
  • International revenues increased $4.0 million, or 17.9%, and $12.1 million, or 19.1%, for the three and nine months, primarily due to increases in the number of restaurants and increases in comparable sales of 5.5% and 6.9%, respectively, calculated on a constant dollar basis.

(a) Includes FOCUS system rollout costs of approximately $1.2 million and $2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014, respectively. See the FOCUS Update section of this press release and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014 for additional information.
   
  Total income before income taxes and other measures excluding FOCUS system rollout costs included within this press release are not measures defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP measures should not be construed as substitutes for or better indicators of the company’s performance than the company’s GAAP results. Management believes presenting income before income taxes and other measures excluding the FOCUS system rollout costs is important for purposes of comparison to prior year results and analyzing each segment’s operating results. In addition, management uses these non-GAAP measures to allocate resources and analyze trends and underlying operating performance of the company.
   

Third quarter 2014 income before income taxes increased $3.0 million, or 13.9%. Excluding FOCUS rollout costs of approximately $1.2 million, income before income taxes increased approximately $4.1 million, or 19.5%. Significant results by segment are detailed as follows:

  • Domestic company-owned restaurants results increased approximately $2.6 million primarily due to the 8.3% increase in comparable sales, partially offset by the impact of higher commodity costs. The market price for cheese averaged $2.14 per pound for the third quarter of 2014, compared to $1.74 per pound in the prior year. Additionally, the results for the third quarter of 2014 include approximately $450,000 of depreciation expense associated with FOCUS hardware costs.
  • Domestic commissaries results increased approximately $2.4 million primarily due to a higher margin, partially offset by higher costs associated with various ongoing commissary initiatives. We manage commissary results on a full year basis and anticipate the 2014 full year profit margin percentage will approximate 2013.
  • North America franchising increased $2.5 million primarily due to higher royalties attributable to the 7.1% increase in comparable sales and lower performance-based royalty incentives.
  • International income increased approximately $500,000 primarily due to an increase in units and comparable sales of 5.5% which resulted in both higher royalties and an improvement in United Kingdom commissary results. These increases were partially offset by unfavorable results at our China company-owned restaurant operations, including an impairment charge of approximately $700,000 for eight restaurants.
  • The results for the "All others" segment decreased approximately $900,000. The decrease was primarily due to higher infrastructure costs to support our digital ordering business and a lower margin at our print and promotions business.
  • Unallocated corporate expenses were $3.7 million higher primarily due to the following:
    • General and administrative costs increased approximately $1.5 million primarily due to higher salaries, benefits, and equity compensation costs, increased professional and legal fees and higher insurance costs.
    • Interest costs were approximately $400,000 higher due to both a higher average outstanding debt balance and a higher effective interest rate.
    • The prior year included an approximate $375,000 benefit from a decrease in the redemption value of a mandatorily redeemable noncontrolling interest in a joint venture.
    • Depreciation expense increased approximately $1.0 million including depreciation expense of $600,000 for FOCUS capitalized software development costs.

Income before income taxes increased $3.7 million, or 4.7%, for the nine-month period ended September 28, 2014. Excluding FOCUS system rollout costs of approximately $2.3 million, income before income taxes increased by approximately $6.0 million, or 7.7% for the nine-month period. The increase was primarily due to the same reasons as noted above, except the domestic commissaries segment which decreased approximately $100,000 due to higher insurance costs of approximately $1.1 million and higher costs associated with ongoing commissary initiatives. These decreases were substantially offset by a higher margin.

The effective income tax rates were 30.0% and 32.4% for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014, representing a decrease of 0.1% for the three-month period and an increase of 0.5% for the nine-month period. Our effective income tax rate may fluctuate from quarter to quarter for various reasons. The higher tax rate for the nine months of 2014 was primarily due to the prior year including both favorable state tax settlements and the reinstatement of certain 2012 tax credits under the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012.

(a) The increase of approximately $10.0 million was primarily due to higher net income and favorable changes in working capital and other operating activities including higher depreciation and amortization expense.
(b) Purchases of property and equipment were relatively consistent for the nine-month periods. The current year period includes FOCUS hardware costs for domestic company-owned restaurants. The prior year period includes expenditures on equipment for New Jersey commissary dough production as well as technology investments, including FOCUS software development costs.
 

 We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities (from the consolidated statements of cash flows) less the amounts spent on the purchase of property and equipment. We view free cash flow as an important measure because it is a factor that management uses in determining the amount of cash available for discretionary investment, dividends or share repurchases. Free cash flow is not a term defined by GAAP and as a result our measure of free cash flow might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Free cash flow should not be construed as a substitute for or a better indicator of the company’s performance than the company’s GAAP measures.

See the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for additional information concerning our operating results and cash flow for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014.

FOCUS Update

As previously disclosed, the company is implementing a new, proprietary point-of-sale system ("FOCUS") in substantially all domestic system-wide restaurants. As of September 28, 2014, we had installed FOCUS in almost 50% of our domestic restaurants, including all company-owned restaurants and almost 800 franchised restaurants. Substantial completion is expected to occur by the end of the first quarter of 2015.

The costs related to implementing FOCUS are projected to decrease income before income taxes by approximately $4.0 million in 2014, or a $0.06 negative impact on diluted earnings per share, as compared to 2013. For the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014, the impact was a $1.2 million and $2.3 million reduction in income before income taxes, or a $0.02 and $0.04 reduction in diluted earnings per share, respectively. For additional information, see the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 28, 2014.

Share Repurchase Activity

In October 2014, the company’s Board of Directors approved a $125 million increase in the amount of common stock that may be purchased under the company’s share repurchase program through December 31, 2015, bringing the total authorized under the program to $1.325 billion since its inception in 1999. Approximately $142.9 million remains available under the company’s share repurchase program as of October 28, 2014.

The following table reflects our repurchases for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014 and subsequent repurchases through October 28, 2014 (in thousands):

Period        

Number
of Shares

        Cost
                     
Three Months Ended September 28, 2014         756         $ 30,848
                     
Nine Months Ended September 28, 2014         2,060         $ 94,152
                     
September 29, 2014 through October 28, 2014         240         $ 9,851
                     

There were 41.4 million and 42.0 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014, representing decreases of 6.3% and 6.1%, respectively, over the prior year comparable periods. Diluted earnings per share increased $0.03 and $0.08, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2014 due to the reduction in shares outstanding, primarily resulting from the share repurchase program. Approximately 40.4 million actual shares of the company’s common stock were outstanding as of September 28, 2014.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain matters discussed in this press release and other company communications constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Generally, the use of words such as "expect," "estimate," "believe," "anticipate," "will," "forecast," "plan," "project," or similar words identify forward-looking statements that we intend to be included within the safe harbor protections provided by the federal securities laws. Such forward-looking statements may relate to projections or guidance concerning business performance, revenue, earnings, contingent liabilities, resolution of litigation, commodity costs, profit margins, unit growth, capital expenditures, and other financial and operational measures. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those matters expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements. The risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are involved in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

  • aggressive changes in pricing or other marketing or promotional strategies by competitors, which may adversely affect sales; and new product and concept developments by food industry competitors;
  • changes in consumer preferences or consumer buying habits, including the impact of adverse general economic conditions, such as increasing tax rates;
  • the impact that product recalls, food quality or safety issues, incidences of foodborne illness and other general public health concerns, including potential epidemics, could have system-wide on our restaurants or our results;
  • failure to maintain our brand strength and quality reputation;
  • the ability of the company and its franchisees to meet planned growth targets and operate new and existing restaurants profitably;
  • increases in or sustained high costs of food ingredients or other restaurant costs. This could include increased employee compensation, benefits, insurance, tax rates, regulatory compliance and similar costs, including increased costs resulting from federal health care legislation;
  • disruption of our supply chain or commissary operations which could be caused by sole or limited source of suppliers or weather, drought, disease or other disruptions beyond our control;
  • increased risks associated with our international operations, including economic and political conditions and instability in our international markets and difficulty in meeting planned sales targets and new store growth. This could include our expansion into emerging or underpenetrated markets, such as China, where we have a company-owned presence. Based on prior experience in underpenetrated markets, operating losses are likely to occur as the market is being established;
  • the credit performance of our franchise loan or guarantee programs;
  • the impact of the resolution of current or future claims and litigation;
  • current or proposed legislation impacting our business;
  • the impact of changes in currency exchange and interest rates;
  • failure to effectively execute succession planning, and our reliance on the multiple roles of our Founder, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, who also serves as our brand spokesperson;
  • disruption of critical business or information technology systems, and risks associated with systems failures and data privacy and security breaches, including theft of company, employee and customer information.

These and other risk factors are discussed in detail in "Part I. Item 1A. – Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2013. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise, except as required by law.
