Papa Johns Announces Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

Papa Johns Announces Second Quarter 2024 Financial Results

LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 8, 2024-- Papa John’s International, Inc. (Nasdaq: PZZA) (“Papa Johns®”) (the “Company”) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Highlights

  • North America comparable sales(a) were down 4% from a year ago as Domestic Company-owned restaurants were down 4% and North America franchised restaurants were down 3%; International comparable sales(a) were flat compared with the prior year period.
  • 31 net unit closures in the second quarter resulting from anticipated strategic International closures, including 43 Company-owned restaurants in the UK.
  • Global system-wide restaurant sales were $1.20 billion, a 1%(b) decrease compared with the prior year second quarter, driven by lower North America comparable sales partially offset by trailing twelve month net unit growth.
  • Total revenues of $508 million were down 1% compared with a year ago driven by lower revenues in our North America commissary segment primarily due to a combination of lower volume and commodity prices.
  • Operating income of $28 million decreased 19% compared with the second quarter of 2023, while Adjusted operating income(c) of $38 million increased 4% on improved restaurant-level margins and continued focus on cost discipline.
  • Diluted earnings per common share of $0.37 compared with $0.54 for the second quarter of 2023; Adjusted diluted earnings per common share(c) was $0.61 compared with $0.59 for the second quarter a year ago.

“I am honored and excited to join the Papa Johns team and look forward to building a strong and collaborative partnership with our franchisees,” said Todd Penegor, President and Chief Executive Officer. “As we move forward together, our number one priority will be to create great experiences for our customers and team members, while also ensuring the restaurant economic model is strong. We will move quickly to build on our strengths and execute today as we evolve to be even better tomorrow.”

Commenting on second quarter results, Ravi Thanawala, Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Papa Johns’ commitment to maintaining the quality of our product and brand as well as managing our costs drove continued improvement in restaurant-level margins and Adjusted operating income, helping to offset our softer sales in the second quarter. During the quarter, demand for our core product — pizza, remained solid despite facing a highly promotional QSR environment and a more value-conscious consumer.

“We recognize there is work to do to achieve our full potential. We are committed to doing what is necessary to become the pizza brand of choice for consumers and franchisees around the world,” continued Thanawala. “We are actively pursuing opportunities that sharpen our focus, improve unit economics, drive unit development and provide an excellent consumer experience. We are evolving our marketing to meet consumers’ value expectations, investing in our digital experience to streamline our ordering journey and enhancing our loyalty experience to drive consumer engagement.

“We are confident that our approach will drive long-term increased franchisee profitability and sustainable, profitable growth for all stakeholders,” concluded Thanawala.

Results for the first six months of 2024 are not directly comparable with the first six months of 2023, as year-over-year comparisons are impacted by the UK franchisee acquisitions that occurred during the second and third quarters of 2023 and the UK restaurant closures and refranchising transactions in the second quarter of 2024.

Quarterly Results

Total revenues of $507.9 million decreased $6.6 million, or 1.3%, in the second quarter of 2024 compared with the prior year period. The lower revenues were largely attributable to an $8.8 million decrease in North America commissary revenues reflecting a combination of lower transaction volumes and commodity prices. Revenues from Domestic Company-owned restaurants also declined $2.6 million, reflecting lower transaction volumes partially offset by higher average ticket. Somewhat offsetting these declines was higher International revenues primarily driven by the net impact of the UK Company-owned restaurants versus the prior year period.

For the second quarter of 2024, Global system-wide restaurant sales were $1.20 billion, down 0.7% from the prior year quarter (excluding the impact of foreign currency). The decrease was primarily due to lower North America comparable sales, partially offset by 1.9% global net unit growth on a trailing twelve-month basis.

Second quarter Operating income was $28.2 million, a $6.7 million, or a 19.2% decrease compared with the prior year second quarter. Adjusted operating income(a) was $38.4 million, a $1.5 million, or 4.0%, increase from the same period a year ago. The variance between Operating income and Adjusted operating income was due to $6.1 million of International restructuring costs in the UK and a $4.0 million non-cash impairment charge related to fixed and intangible assets related to certain Domestic restaurants.

The increase in Adjusted operating income in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to improved margins at our Domestic Company-owned restaurants and local marketing savings. These increases were partially offset by an approximate $3 million operating loss related to the operations of the UK franchisee acquisition and higher depreciation costs related to Company-owned restaurants and our investments in technology platforms.

Diluted earnings per common share was $0.37 for the second quarter of 2024 compared with $0.54 in the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share(a) was $0.61 for the second quarter of 2024 compared with $0.59 in the second quarter of 2023. These changes were driven by the same factors impacting Operating income and Adjusted operating income as discussed above. In addition, diluted earnings per common share and Adjusted diluted earnings per common share reflected lower interest expense and a higher effective tax rate compared with the second quarter of 2023. Interest expense decreased largely due to lower average outstanding debt, partially offset by slightly higher average interest rates compared with the prior year second quarter.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure which the Company defines as net cash provided by operating activities, less purchases of property and equipment, was $12.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared with $59.0 million in the prior year period. The year over year change primarily reflects unfavorable working capital changes and timing of cash payments for income taxes, partially offset by a $5.6 million decrease in capital expenditures.

We view free cash flow as an important financial measure because it is one factor that management uses in determining the amount of cash available for discretionary investment. 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.

Cash Dividend

The Company paid cash dividends of $15.1 million ($0.46 per common share) in the second quarter of 2024. On July 31, 2024, our Board of Directors declared a third quarter dividend of $0.46 per common share. The dividend will be paid on August 30, 2024 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 19, 2024.

Supplemental Information and Financial Statements

Definitions

“Comparable sales” represents sales for the same base of restaurants for the same fiscal periods. “Comparable sales growth (decline)” represents the change in year-over-year comparable sales. “Global system-wide restaurant sales” represents total restaurant sales for all Company-owned and franchised restaurants open during the comparable periods, and “Global system-wide restaurant sales growth (decline)” represents the change in global system-wide restaurant sales year-over-year. Comparable sales, Comparable sales growth (decline), Global system-wide restaurant sales and Global system-wide sales growth (decline) exclude franchisees for which we suspended corporate support.

“Equivalent units” represents the number of restaurants open at the beginning of a given period, adjusted for restaurants opened, closed, acquired or sold during the period on a weighted average basis.

We believe Domestic Company-owned, North America franchised, and International Comparable sales growth (decline) and Global system-wide restaurant sales information is useful in analyzing our results since our franchisees pay royalties and marketing fund contributions that are based on a percentage of franchise sales. Comparable sales and Global system-wide restaurant sales results for restaurants operating outside of the United States are reported on a constant dollar basis, which excludes the impact of foreign currency translation. Franchise sales also generate commissary revenue in the United States and in certain international markets. Comparable sales growth (decline) and Global system-wide restaurant sales information is also useful for comparison to industry trends and evaluating the strength of our brand. Management believes the presentation of Global system-wide restaurant sales growth, excluding the impact of foreign currency, provides investors with useful information regarding underlying sales trends and the impact of new unit growth without being impacted by swings in the external factor of foreign currency. Franchise restaurant sales are not included in the Company’s revenues.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we provide certain non-GAAP measures, which present results on an adjusted basis. These are supplemental measures of performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the following: Adjusted operating income, Adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and Adjusted diluted earnings per common share. We believe that our non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to assess the operating performance of our business relative to our performance based on U.S. GAAP results and relative to other companies. We believe that the disclosure of these non-GAAP measures is useful to investors as they reflect metrics that our management team and Board utilize to evaluate our operating performance, allocate resources and administer employee incentive plans. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures to Adjusted operating income, Adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and Adjusted diluted earnings per common share are Operating income, net income attributable to common shareholders and diluted earnings per common share, respectively. These non-GAAP measures should not be construed as a substitute for or a better indicator of the Company’s performance than the Company’s U.S. GAAP results. The table that follows reconciles our GAAP financial results to our non-GAAP financial measures.
