Jack in the Box Inc. Completes Sale of Qdoba Restaurant Corporation

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 21, 2018--Jack in the Box Inc. (NASDAQ: JACK) (the “Company”) today announced that it has completed the sale of Qdoba Restaurant Corporation (“Qdoba”) to an affiliate of certain funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management, LLC (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Apollo”) (NYSE: APO) for approximately $305 million in cash. Qdoba operates and franchises more than 700 QDOBA MEXICAN EATS® restaurants in the U.S. and Canada.

In connection with the sale, the Company will make a prepayment of $260 million to retire outstanding debt under its term loan, as required by the terms of its credit facility.

Lenny Comma, chairman and chief executive officer of Jack in the Box Inc., said, “We wish the Qdoba brand and its leadership team and franchisees all the best. Completing the sale of Qdoba marks an important milestone in the actions we’re taking to enhance shareholder value while creating an asset-light business model that is less capital intensive.”

Lance Milken, a senior partner at Apollo, said, “With the close of this acquisition, we are very excited to be working alongside Qdoba’s outstanding management team, talented employees, and dedicated franchise partners. We look forward to continuing Qdoba’s growth as a leading fast-casual restaurant brand.”

At the time the Company acquired Qdoba in 2003, it had 85 locations in 16 states, with $65 million in system-wide sales. Today, Qdoba is the second largest fast-casual Mexican food brand in the U.S., with more than 700 locations in 47 states, the District of Columbia and Canada, and system-wide sales of more than $820 million in fiscal 2017.

JACK IN THE BOX INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
 
The following adjustments have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements:
 
(a)           Reflects the Company's historical US GAAP consolidated financial statements, as reported, before pro forma adjustments related to the Qdoba Sale or the Amendment. As of and for the 16-weeks ended January 21, 2018, Qdoba was reported as discontinued operations in the Company's Form 10-Q. For each of the fiscal years ended October 1, 2017, October 2, 2016 and September 27, 2015, Qdoba results of operations were included in the consolidated results of operations in the Company's respective Form 10-K.
 
In fiscal 2018, the Company began presenting depreciation and amortization as a separate line item on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings to better align with similar presentations made by many of its peers and to provide additional disclosure that is meaningful to its investors. The historical condensed consolidated statements of earnings were adjusted to conform to this new presentation. Depreciation and amortization were previously presented within company restaurant costs, franchise occupancy expenses, selling, general and administrative expenses, and impairment and other charges, net on the consolidated statements of earnings.
 
(b)           Reflects estimated net cash proceeds from the Qdoba Sale of $294.5 million, representing the gross sales price of $305.0 million less certain estimated purchase price adjustments and estimated transaction costs, plus the transaction costs incurred and capitalized as of January 21, 2018 as discussed in note (e). The net cash proceeds ultimately recognized may change based on adjustments to transaction costs and the working capital adjustment as defined in the stock purchase agreement dated December 19, 2017. The pro forma adjustment to cash was also impacted by the mandatory repayment of debt outstanding under the term loan as discussed in note (g).

The pro forma adjustment to cash was calculated as follows (in thousands):
 
Estimated proceeds, net of transaction costs
  
$
294,538
  
Transaction costs capitalized, see note (e)    
2,199
  
Payment on term loan, see note (g)    
(260,000
)
   
$
36,737
  
 
(c)           Represents adjustments for the estimated taxes payable on the gain associated with the Qdoba Sale. Taxes on the gain were calculated using a blended statutory tax rate of 28.67% as shown in note (h). Taxes payable on the gain were included in the pro forma adjustment for accrued liabilities and were reduced by the Company's prepaid income taxes as of January 21, 2018, which resulted in a pro forma adjustment to prepaid expenses.
 
(d)           Represents the net assets sold and liabilities conveyed to the Buyer in the Qdoba Sale.
 
(e)           Represents transaction costs that were incurred as of the January 21, 2018 balance sheet to be applied against the gain on sale of Qdoba when it closes.
 
(f)           Represents the reduction of deferred tax benefit on the excess of the tax basis over the financial reporting basis in the Company's investment in Qdoba.
 
(g)          Represents the mandatory repayment of $260.0 million of the Company's term loan upon closing of the Qdoba Sale in accordance with the Amendment. The repayment was applied to current and long-term debt based on a pro-rata allocation of the remaining scheduled debt payments under the Amendment.
7
 
(h)           Represents the estimated after-tax gain on the sale of Qdoba of $29.8 million, and the realization of the Qdoba deferred tax benefit as discussed in note (f), which was calculated as follows (in thousands):
 
Estimated proceeds, net of transaction costs, see note (b)
  
$
294,538
  
Qdoba assets held for sale, see note (d)
    
(314,314
)
Qdoba liabilities held for sale, see note (d)
    
61,521
  
Pre-tax gain on sale of Qdoba
    
41,745
  
Taxes on the sale of Qdoba at blended statutory rate of 28.67%
    
(11,968
)
After-tax gain on sale of Qdoba
    
29,777
  
Deferred tax benefit, see note (f)
    
(539
)
   
$
29,238
  
 
The after-tax gain on sale of Qdoba ultimately recognized may change based on adjustments to transaction costs and the working capital adjustment as defined in the stock purchase agreement dated December 19, 2017.
 
(i)            Represents a Qdoba tax benefit that was recognized as a component of income taxes from continuing operations. This tax benefit resulted from the re-measurement of Qdoba's deferred tax liabilities due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act on December 22, 2017.
 
(j)            Reflects the elimination of revenues and expenses representing the historical operating results of Qdoba.
 
(k)           In addition to the adjustment discussed in note (j), the pro forma adjustment to selling, general and administrative expenses in fiscal years 2017, 2016 and 2015 was impacted by an elimination of share-based compensation expenses, employee relocation expenses and gains/losses from the Company's executive deferred compensation plan totaling $1.4 million, $0.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively. These expenses were eliminated as they were corporate costs directly in support of Qdoba operations. All other corporate costs remain classified in the results of continuing operations.
 
(l)            In addition to the adjustment discussed in note (j), the pro forma adjustment to interest expense, net in fiscal years 2017, 2016 and 2015 was impacted by the allocation of additional interest expense of $4.5 million, $4.1 million, and $3.7 million, respectively, to Qdoba based on the mandatory term loan repayment upon closing of the Qdoba Sale, as discussed in note (g).
 
(m)          The pro forma adjustment for income taxes in fiscal years 2017, 2016 and 2015 represents Qdoba’s historical income tax expense net of the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments discussed in notes (k) and (l) of $5.9 million, $4.8 million, and $4.0 million, respectively.

Transition Services Agreement and Employee Agreement
 
Pursuant to a transition services agreement entered into and effective on the closing of the Qdoba Sale, the Company will supply certain services to Qdoba, including information technology, finance and accounting, human resources, supply chain and other corporate support services (the “Services”). The Services will be provided at cost for a period of up to 12 months, with two 3-month extensions available for certain services. No pro forma adjustments have been made related to these Services as the Company is unable to currently estimate the duration that each of the Services will be provided.
 
Further, pursuant to an employee agreement entered into and effective on the closing date of the Qdoba Sale, the Company will continue to employ all Qdoba employees who will transfer employment to the Buyer (the “Qdoba Employees”) through the earlier of: (a) following 30 days written notice from the Buyer of termination of the employee agreement, or (b) nine months following the closing of the Qdoba Sale. Upon termination of the employee agreement, the Qdoba Employees will become employees of the Buyer. During the term of the employee agreement, the Company (as the employer of record) will pay all wages and benefits of the Qdoba Employees and will receive reimbursement of these costs from the Buyer, who has all control over the employees. As the costs of the employee agreement will be passed through to the Buyer, no pro forma adjustments have been made related to the employment agreement.
