SEATTLE; October 30, 2019 – Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ: SBUX) today reported financial results for its 13-week fiscal fourth quarter and 52-week fiscal year ended September 29, 2019. GAAP results in fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018 include items which are excluded from non-GAAP results. Please refer to the reconciliation of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures at the end of this release for more information.

“I’m very pleased with our strong finish to fiscal 2019, as we sustained positive momentum across each of our business segments,” said Kevin Johnson, president and ceo. “Our U.S. business delivered 6% comparable store sales growth in the fourth quarter, while China grew comparable store sales by 5% and total transactions by 13%. Our strong performance throughout fiscal 2019 gives us confidence in a robust operating outlook for fiscal 2020.”

“We are making meaningful progress against our strategic priorities while streamlining the company, bringing more focus and discipline to everything we do. The investments we are making for the long term---in our partners, our stores, beverage innovation and digital---are collectively delivering an elevated Starbucks Experience, as evidenced by all-time-high customer connection scores in the fourth quarter. This long-term focus is instrumental to how we are building an enduring company,” concluded Johnson.

•
Global comparable store sales up 5%, driven by a 3% increase in average ticket and a 2% increase in comparable transactions

•
GAAP operating margin expanded 90 basis points year-over-year to 16.1%, primarily due to sales leverage, cost savings initiatives, lapping prior-year Nestlé transaction-related costs and lower restructuring and impairment charges, partially offset by growth in wages and benefits, increased investments in labor hours and the 2019 Starbucks Leadership Experience
◦

Fiscal 2019 Re-segmentation
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, the company realigned its operating segment reporting structure to better reflect the cumulative effect of its streamlining efforts. Specifically, the previous China/Asia Pacific ("CAP") segment and Europe, Middle East, and Africa ("EMEA") segment have been combined into one International segment. The company will continue to provide supplemental information on its two lead growth markets, the U.S. and China, in its quarterly earnings news releases in accordance with its "Growth at Scale" agenda.

Concurrently, results of Siren Retail, a non-reportable operating segment consisting of Starbucks ReserveTM Roastery & Tasting Rooms, Starbucks Reserve brand and Princi operations, which was previously included within Corporate and Other, is now reported within the Americas and International segments based on the geographical location of the operations.

Further, to better support the review of its results, the company changed the classification of certain costs. The most significant change was the reclassification of company-operated store occupancy costs from cost of sales to store operating expenses. The company also made certain other immaterial changes. These reclassifications have been retrospectively applied.

There was no impact to consolidated net revenues, consolidated operating income, or net earnings per share as a result of these changes.

Concurrent with the change in reportable segments and reclassification of certain operating expenses noted above, the company revised its prior period financial information to be consistent with the current period presentation.

Restated GAAP and non-GAAP quarterly financial information for FY18 and FY19 (through fiscal Q3) can be found on the Supplemental Financial Data page of our Investor Relations website (http://investor.starbucks.com).

Net revenues for the Americas segment grew 9% over Q4 FY18 to $4.7 billion in Q4 FY19, primarily driven by 6% growth in comparable store sales, 607 net new store openings, or 3% store growth, over the past 12 months, and the impact of the adoption of new revenue recognition accounting for stored value card (SVC) breakage.

Operating income grew 5% to $938.9 million in Q4 FY19, up from $890.8 million in Q4 FY18. Operating margin of 20.2% declined 70 basis points, primarily due to the 2019 Starbucks Leadership Experience, growth in wages and benefits and increased investments in labor hours, partially offset by cost savings initiatives and sales leverage.

Net revenues for the International segment grew 6% over Q4 FY18 to $1.6 billion in Q4 FY19, primarily driven by 1,337 net new store openings, or 11% store growth, over the past 12 months, and a 3% increase in comparable store sales, partially offset by a 5% revenue-dilutive impact of converting certain retail businesses to fully licensed markets.

Q4 FY19 operating income of $262.7 million grew 18% over Q4 FY18 operating income of $222.4 million. Operating margin expanded 180 basis points to 16.7%, primarily due to sales leverage, cost savings initiatives, labor efficiencies and the impact of the conversions of certain retail businesses to fully licensed markets, partially offset by growth in wages and benefits, unfavorable product mix shift and strategic investments.

Net revenues for the Channel Development segment declined 6% from Q4 FY18 to $508.1 million in Q4 FY19, primarily due to licensing our CPG and Foodservice businesses to Nestlé following the close of the transaction on August 26, 2018.

Operating income of $190.9 million in Q4 FY19 was flat compared to Q4 FY18. Operating margin expanded 220 basis points to 37.6%, primarily due to lapping prior year costs associated with the establishment of the Global Coffee Alliance, including business taxes associated with the up-front payment and employee-related costs. This favorability was partially offset by the impact of our ownership changes, including licensing our CPG and Foodservice businesses to Nestlé and the sale of our Tazo brand.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

In addition to the GAAP results provided in this release, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, or alternatives for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Our non-GAAP financial measures of non-GAAP G&A, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income growth, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP EPS exclude the below-listed items and their related tax impacts, as they do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's future operating performance or comparisons to the company's past operating performance. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to non-GAAP G&A, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income growth, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP EPS are general and administrative expenses, operating income, operating income growth, operating margin, effective tax rate and diluted net earnings per share, respectively.
Non-GAAP Exclusion
Rationale
East China acquisition-related gain
Management excludes the gain on the purchase of our East China joint venture as this incremental gain was specific to the purchase activity and for reasons discussed above.
Sale of Taiwan joint venture operations
Management excludes the gain related to the sale of our Taiwan joint venture operations as this incremental gain was specific to the sale activity and for reasons discussed above.
Sale of Tazo brand
Management excludes the net gain on the sale of our assets associated with our Tazo brand and associated transaction costs as these items do not reflect future gains, losses, costs or tax benefits and for reasons discussed above.
Sale of certain retail operations
Management excludes the gains and net loss related to the sale of our Thailand, France, the Netherlands and Brazil retail operations as these items do not reflect future gains, losses or tax impacts for reasons discussed above.
Restructuring, impairment and optimization costs
Management excludes restructuring charges and business process optimization costs related to strategic shifts in its Teavana, U.S., International, e-commerce and other business units. Additionally, management excludes expenses related to divesting certain lower-margin businesses and assets, such as closure of certain company-operated stores and Switzerland intangible asset impairments. Management excludes these items for reasons discussed above. These expenses are anticipated to be completed within a finite period of time.
Transaction and integration-related costs
Management excludes transaction and integration costs and amortization of the acquired intangible assets for reasons discussed above. Additionally, the majority of these costs will be recognized over a finite period of time.
2018 U.S. stock award
Management excludes the incremental stock-based compensation award granted in the third quarter of fiscal 2018 for reasons discussed above.
Nestlé transaction-related costs
Management excludes the transaction-related costs associated with Nestlé for reasons discussed above.
Other tax matters
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into U.S. law. Management excludes the estimated transition tax on undistributed foreign earnings, the impacts of estimated incremental foreign withholding taxes on expected repatriated earnings and the re–measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities due to the reduction of the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate for reasons discussed above.

Non-GAAP G&A, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income growth, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP EPS may have limitations as analytical tools. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company's results as reported under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than the company does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
