Chipotle Announces Third Quarter 2020 Results Q3 Digital Sales Tripled Year-Over-Year And Accounted For Nearly Half Of Sales
NEWPORT BEACH, Calf., Oct. 21, 2020 // PRNewswire // - Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE: CMG) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2020.
Third quarter highlights, which incorporate the impact of COVID-19, year over year:
- Revenue increased 14.1% to $1.6 billion
- Comparable restaurant sales increased 8.3%
- Digital sales grew 202.5% and accounted for 48.8% of sales for the quarter
- Restaurant level operating margin was 19.5%, a decrease of 1.3%
- Diluted earnings per share was $2.82, net of a $0.94 after-tax impact from expenses related to certain legal proceedings, restaurant asset impairment and closure costs, as well as corporate restructuring and other adjustments, an 18.7% decrease from $3.47. Adjusted diluted earnings per share excluding these charges was $3.76, a 1.6% decrease from $3.821
- Opened 44 new restaurants and closed three restaurants during the quarter; and about 10 restaurants remain temporarily closed because of COVID-19, mainly inside malls and shopping centers
1 Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations to GAAP measures and further information are set forth in the table at the end of this press release.
"I want to thank and acknowledge the incredible Chipotle team members who remain focused on great execution and on advancing our purpose of Cultivating a Better World as demonstrated by our outstanding third quarter results," said Brian Niccol, Chairman and CEO, Chipotle. "I have never been more confident that Chipotle is a powerful brand committed to fostering a culture that values and champions our diversity, while leveraging the individual talents of all team members. As a result of a strong brand, committed employees, and broad financial strength, we remain excited about Chipotle's powerful economic model and our long-term potential."
COVID-19 and Liquidity Update:
The health and well-being of our employees and guests continues to be our top priority. We are benefitting from investments made a few years ago including advanced air filtration systems, sanitizers throughout the restaurant, wellness protocols, and improved handwashing. In addition, we are closely following the recommendations of the CDC and local health departments and have implemented social distancing, wearing face masks, a tamper evident packaging seal for all digital orders, as well as creating the steward role to sanitize high-traffic areas. Collectively, these efforts have made the pivot to enhanced COVID-19 safety protocols much less complicated and give our employees and guests confidence that Chipotle remains steadfast in our commitment to keep them safe as we re-open restaurants for in-restaurant dining.
As of September 30, 2020, Chipotle continues to maintain a strong financial position with $1.1 billion in cash, investments and restricted cash, and no debt, along with a $600 million untapped credit facility with which to continue to navigate this crisis. This financial position improved sequentially from $934.6 million in cash, short-term investments and restricted cash, as of June 30, 2020. Our financial strength gives us the opportunity to make on-going strategic investments in our people, business, and communities, which we believe will benefit us for years to come. At the same time, our team remains focused on reducing non-essential controllable costs and judiciously spending on return generating projects to preserve liquidity.
Results for the three months ended September 30, 2020:
Revenue in the third quarter was $1.6 billion, an increase of 14.1% compared to the third quarter of 2019 and includes an 8.3% increase in comparable restaurant sales. Comparable restaurant sales were strong in each month of the third quarter with August being the high point. Sales trends remained strong in September even though beginning mid-month we rolled over the successful 2019 Carne Asada program. Beginning mid-September comparable restaurant sales impressively delivered mid-single digits and this trend has continued in October.
Digital sales grew 202.5% year over year to $776.4 million and represented 48.8% of sales. About half of the digital sales were via delivery, benefiting from our expanded partnerships, with the remainder coming from order ahead transactions as guests better understand the value offered by this channel, as well as the convenience of more Chipotlanes.
Delivery service revenue is comprised of delivery and related service fees charged to customers on sales made through Chipotle's app and website. The amount that we remit to our delivery partner for sales through our app and website is higher than what we collect from customers and is included in other operating costs. The accounting for our fee arrangements with delivery partners has impacted several of our operating metrics, including comparable restaurant sales, other operating expenses, and restaurant level operating margin.
We opened 44 new restaurants during the third quarter and closed three restaurants, bringing the total restaurant count to 2,710. During the quarter, 26 of the 44 new restaurants included a Chipotlane. These formats continue to perform very well and are helping enhance guest access and convenience, as well as increase new restaurant sales, margins, and returns. It's hard to predict the external environment but if we assume there are no further COVID-19 related construction stoppages, we expect to have a sequentially similar or perhaps slightly higher number of openings in the fourth quarter of 2020. And while the current environment prevents us from being able to provide reliable new store opening guidance for 2021, our development team has built a very robust new unit pipeline, which under normal circumstances, would lead to opening around 200 restaurants next year. Longer term, we remain confident in our ability to more than double the total number of Chipotle restaurants in the US.
Food, beverage and packaging costs in the third quarter were 32.3% of revenue, a decrease of 90 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the benefit of menu price increases, lower avocado costs, and to a lesser extent, lower salsa usage and waste. These decreases were partially offset by COVID-19 related impacts including elevated beef prices, increased incidence of steak, and fewer sales of high margin beverages.
Restaurant level operating margin was 19.5%, a decrease from 20.8% in the third quarter of 2019 driven primarily by COVID-19 related impacts including higher delivery expense associated with increased delivery sales, elevated beef prices, increased incidence of steak, and fewer sales of high margin beverages. The decrease was partially offset by sales leverage, lower avocado expense, improved labor efficiency realized from digital enhancements to the restaurants and benefits from menu price increases.
General and administrative expenses for the third quarter were $133.2 million on a GAAP basis or $102.3 million on a non-GAAP basis, excluding $28.7 million related to certain legal proceedings and $2.1 million of transformation and other expenses. The legal proceedings relate to expected settlements of longstanding pending litigation involving ordinary business matters. GAAP and non-GAAP general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2020 also include underlying general and administrative expenses totaling $83.8 million and non-cash stock compensation of $18.5 million.
The effective income tax rate for the third quarter was 24.7%, a change from an effective income tax rate provision of 17.9% for the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to elevated excess tax benefits related to option exercises in the third quarter of 2019.
Net income for the third quarter was $80.2 million, or $2.82 per diluted share, a decrease from $98.6 million, or $3.47 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2019. Excluding the impact of certain legal proceedings, restaurant asset impairment and closure costs, and corporate restructuring expenses and other adjustments, adjusted net income was $107.0 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share was $3.76.
More information will be available in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which will be filed with the SEC by the end of October.
Outlook
Given on-going uncertainty surrounding the future impact of COVID-19 on the broader US economy and any specific impact to our company, we are not providing fiscal 2020 guidance related to comparable restaurant sales growth, new restaurant openings, and effective full year tax rate.

These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the statements, including but not limited to: the ongoing adverse effect of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on our guest traffic, restaurant sales and operating costs as a result of actions we have taken in response to the coronavirus, including closing some restaurants, ending dine in service at some restaurants while continuing to offer only takeout and/or delivery, modifying work hours at some restaurants, extending enhanced benefits to employees working during and/or impacted by the coronavirus, increasing compensation for restaurant employees, purchasing masks, gloves and additional sanitation supplies and services and delaying the construction of new restaurant openings; risks that the impact of the coronavirus pandemic will continue for a long duration and may require a more drastic response, such as closing all or most restaurants; risks of food safety and food-borne illnesses and other health concerns about our food; risks associated with our reliance on certain information technology systems and potential failures or interruptions; privacy and cyber security risks related to our acceptance of electronic payments or electronic processing of confidential customer or employee information; the impact of competition, including from sources outside the restaurant industry; the increasingly competitive labor market and our ability to attract and retain qualified employees; the impact of federal, state or local government regulations relating to our employees, employment practices, restaurant design and construction, and the sale of food or alcoholic beverages; our ability to achieve our planned growth, such as the availability of suitable new restaurant sites; increases in ingredient and other operating costs due to our Food With Integrity philosophy, tariffs or trade restrictions and supply shortages; the uncertainty of our ability to achieve expected levels of comparable restaurant sales due to factors such as changes in consumers' perceptions of our brand, including as a result of actual or rumored food safety concerns or other negative publicity, decreased overall consumer spending (including but not limited to the increase in unemployment caused by the coronavirus pandemic), or the inability to increase menu prices or realize the benefits of menu price increases; risks associated with our increased focus on our digital business, including risks arising from our reliance on third party delivery services, which are heightened during the pendency of government restrictions on dine in restaurant services as a result of the coronavirus pandemic; risks relating to litigation, including possible governmental actions related to food safety incidents and potential class action litigation regarding employment laws, advertising claims or other matters; and other risk factors described from time to time in our SEC reports, including our annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, all of which are available on the investor relations page of our website.

(1) Beginning in the third quarter of 2020, we revised the definition of average restaurant sales to exclude delivery service revenue (refer to Definitions section above). We made this change to more closely align with how management views the business and given the increase in the delivery business. Average restaurant sales in all comparative periods presented has been updated to conform with the new definition. |

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(in thousands, except per share amounts)
(unaudited)
The following provides a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented in the text above to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted net income is net income excluding expenses related to certain legal proceedings, restaurant asset impairment, corporate restructuring, and certain other costs. Adjusted general and administrative expense is general and administrative expense excluding certain other costs and transformation expenses. We present these non-GAAP measures in order to facilitate meaningful evaluation of our operating performance across periods. These adjustments are intended to provide greater transparency of underlying performance and to allow investors to evaluate our business on the same basis as our management, which uses these non-GAAP measures in evaluating the company's performance. Our adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted general and administrative expenses measures may not be comparable to other companies' adjusted measures. These adjustments are not necessarily indicative of what our actual financial performance would have been during the periods presented and should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, our results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further details regarding these adjustments are included in the tables below.
