Starbucks Posts Strong Third Quarter Fiscal 2009 Results
EPS of $0.20 vs. $(0.01) in Q3 FY08; Non-GAAP EPS of $0.24 vs. $0.16
Performance Reflects Higher Margins, Improving Store Traffic and Increased Operating Leverage
SEATTLE; July 21, 2009 — Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ: SBUX) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended June 28, 2009, provided its FY09 EPS target and introduced FY10 targets.
Fiscal Third Quarter 2009 Highlights include:
  EPS of $0.20 compared to $(0.01) in Q308
 
  Non-GAAP EPS of $0.24 compared to $0.16 in Q308, a 50% year-over-year increase
 
  Operating margin of 8.5% vs. negative 0.8% in Q308; Non-GAAP operating margin of 10.6% vs. 6.9% in Q308
 
  U.S. operating margin of 11.2% vs. negative 1.4% in Q308; Non-GAAP U.S. operating margin of 13.4% vs. 8.8% in Q308
 
  Net revenues of $2.4 billion, compared to $2.6 billion in Q308
 
  Cost savings of approximately $175 million, exceeding Q3 target of $150 million
 
  Comparable store sales decline of 5%, a sequential improvement from a decline of 8% in Q209
“The transformation of Starbucks business — including the success of our consumer-facing initiatives and the permanent changes to our cost structure — are delivering improvements in comparable store sales trends and beginning to be reflected in our financial performance,” said Howard Schultz, chairman, president and ceo. “The entire Starbucks organization is committed to continually improving our customer experience as the roadmap to renewed growth and increasing profitability. At the same time, we will continue to innovate and differentiate, two perennial hallmarks of the Starbucks brand,” added Schultz.
“Excellent execution throughout our organization contributed significantly to our performance this quarter,” commented Troy Alstead, executive vice president and cfo. “Our store partners have embraced the cost disciplines and efficiency initiatives that are enabling us to expand our operating margin. In doing this, they have also delivered increased service speed, measurably-improved customer service, customer satisfaction, and an overall enhanced Starbucks Experience.”
Consolidated company revenues for Q309 were $2.4 billion, compared to $2.6 billion in Q308. The sales decline resulted primarily from a five percent decline in comparable store sales.
Restructuring charges, nearly all due to previously-announced store closures, impacted operating income and operating margin in Q309 by $51.6 million and 210 basis points, respectively. As a result, Q309 operating income totaled $204.0 million, representing an operating margin of 8.5 percent, compared to an operating loss of $21.6 million, and an operating margin of negative 0.8 percent in Q308. On a non-GAAP basis (excluding restructuring charges), Q309 operating income totaled $255.6 million, representing an operating margin of 10.6 percent, compared to non-GAAP operating income of $177.6 million and a non-GAAP

operating margin of 6.9 percent in Q308. Non-GAAP results in Q308 exclude $199.2 million of restructuring charges specifically related to asset impairments for 600 underperforming company-operated stores in the U.S., and transformation-related costs.
Net earnings in Q309 totaled $151.5 million, compared to a net loss of $6.7 million in Q308, and diluted EPS for Q309 was $0.20, compared to $(0.01) in Q308. Non-GAAP net earnings totaled $179.9 million, and non-GAAP EPS was $0.24 for Q309, compared to non-GAAP net earnings of $115.8 million and non-GAAP EPS of $0.16 in Q308. Non-GAAP results for Q308 exclude approximately $0.17 per share in restructuring charges and transformation-related costs.
Cost Reduction Initiatives
Starbucks continues to make good progress on its fiscal 2009 target to reduce its cost structure by $500 million. In Q309, the company delivered approximately $175 million in cost savings, exceeding the company’s Q3 target of $150 million, resulting in year-to-date cost savings of approximately $370 million. Starbucks now expects to deliver cost savings of approximately $180 million in Q409, for a full year total of approximately $550 million in cost savings in fiscal 2009, exceeding its initial target.
Restructuring Charges
Restructuring charges of $51.6 million for the quarter were nearly all due to lease exit and other costs associated with the closure of U.S. and International company-operated stores. Starbucks actions to rationalize its global store portfolio have included the announcements (in July 2008 and January 2009) of plans to close approximately 800 company-operated stores in the U.S., restructure the company’s business in Australia, and close approximately 100 additional International company-operated stores. Since those announcements, 676 U.S. stores, 61 stores in Australia and 28 other International stores have been closed. The remaining U.S. store closures are expected to occur by September 27, 2009, Starbucks fiscal year end, while the remaining International store closures are expected to be completed by mid-year fiscal 2010. Related lease exit costs are expected to be recognized concurrently with the actual closures.
Q3 U.S. Segment Results
For Q309, U.S. total net revenues were $1.8 billion compared to $1.9 billion in Q308, with the decline due to decreased revenues from company-operated retail stores. U.S. comparable store sales declined six percent, due to a four percent decline in the number of transactions and a two percent decrease in the average value per transaction. Specialty revenues declined 4.7 percent to $207.0 million, driven by lower foodservice revenues primarily related to softness in the hospitality industry.
U.S. operating income for Q309 was $204.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $27.8 million for the same period a year ago. Operating margin was 11.2 percent of related revenues in Q309 compared to negative 1.4 percent in the corresponding period of fiscal 2008. This increase was driven by significantly lower restructuring charges recorded in the period, as well as a significant reduction in store operating expenses and cost of sales including occupancy costs.
Excluding restructuring charges, U.S. non-GAAP operating margin in Q309 was 13.4 percent compared to non-GAAP operating margin of 8.8 percent for the same period a year ago, which excludes restructuring charges and transformation-related costs. As a percent of total revenues, store operating expenses decreased 240 basis points to 37.0 percent, primarily due to the effect of labor efficiency initiatives. Additionally, cost of sales including occupancy costs improved by 210 basis points to 41.0 percent during

Q309 due to lower dairy commodity costs and the implementation of operational improvements designed to minimize waste.
Q3 International Segment Results
International total net revenues were $477.4 million in Q309 compared to $535.6 million in Q308, with the decline primarily due to the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar relative to the British pound and Canadian dollar. Also contributing to the decrease in International revenues was a two percent decline in comparable store sales, due to a one percent decline in the number of transactions and a two percent decrease in the average value per transaction.
International operating income was $34.4 million in Q309 compared to $35.5 million for the same period a year ago, with the related operating margin expanding 60 basis points to 7.2 percent of total revenues, from 6.6 percent in Q308. Excluding restructuring charges, non-GAAP operating margin for Q309 improved to 8.1 percent compared to non-GAAP operating margin of 6.7 percent for the same period a year ago, which excludes transformation-related costs. This increase was driven by reductions in G&A expenses and lower occupancy costs.
Q3 Global Consumer Products Group Segment Results
Global Consumer Products Group (CPG) total net revenues increased by 17.2 percent to $106.3 million in Q309, due primarily to higher coffee sales to a grocery distribution partner.
Operating income for the CPG segment improved to $49.2 million in Q309, a one percent increase over the $48.7 million reported in Q308. Operating margin decreased 740 basis points to 46.3 percent of related revenues from 53.7 percent for the prior year period. This decrease was due primarily to lower income from equity investees largely related to expenses associated with the dissolution of the previous ice cream partnership, increased marketing expenses for ready-to-drink products in Japan, and higher green coffee costs.
YTD Financial Results
For the 39 weeks ended June 28, 2009, consolidated net revenues totaled $7.4 billion, compared to $7.9 billion for the corresponding period of fiscal 2008. Restructuring charges associated with the store closures and previously-announced workforce reductions impacted operating income and operating margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2009 by $279.2 million and 380 basis points, respectively. As a result, for the fiscal year-to-date period ended June 28, 2009, operating income was $362.6 million and operating margin was 4.9 percent, compared to $489.7 million of operating income and an operating margin of 6.2% in Q308. Non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin, which exclude restructuring charges, were $641.8 million and 8.7 percent for the first nine months of fiscal 2009, respectively. This compared to non-GAAP operating income of $724.0 million and non-GAAP operating margin of 9.2 percent for the first nine months of fiscal 2008, each of which excluded restructuring charges and transformation-related costs totaling $234.3 million.
Net earnings totaled $240.8 million and EPS was $0.32 for the 39 weeks ended June 28, 2009, compared to $310.1 million and $0.42, respectively, for the same period a year ago. Excluding restructuring charges, non-GAAP net earnings were $414.1 million and non-GAAP EPS was $0.56 for the first nine months of fiscal 2009. This compares to non-GAAP net earnings of $454.8 million and non-GAAP EPS of $0.61 for the same period a year ago, which excludes $234.3 million, or $0.19 per share, in restructuring charges and transformation-related costs.

Liquidity
Starbucks used its strong ongoing operating cash flow to reduce its short-term borrowings to a zero balance at the end of Q309, and expects the balance to remain below $50 million for the remainder of the fiscal year. The total amount of excess capital available under the company’s revolving credit facility was approximately $985 million at the end of Q309.
Fiscal 2009 Targets
Starbucks is on track with its plan to rationalize its current store base in order to strengthen its overall global store portfolio. In the current fiscal year, this includes a net reduction of approximately 465 company-operated stores in the U.S. and the net addition of approximately 70 company-operated stores internationally. The company now expects to open approximately 55 net new licensed stores in the U.S. and approximately 310 net new licensed stores internationally. (See Fiscal 2009 Revised Net New Store Target table following the segment results).
Capital expenditure projections for fiscal 2009 are now approximately $550 million. The company continues to expect fiscal year 2009 cash from operations to exceed $1 billion, with resulting free cash flow in excess of $500 million. Starbucks defines free cash flow as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures.
Based on year-to-date performance, along with its current outlook for the fourth quarter, Starbucks expects to achieve full year EPS within a range of $0.44 to $0.45 per share on a GAAP basis, and $0.74 to $0.75 per share on a non-GAAP basis. This range reflects strong Q3 performance and also recognizes both continued macro-economic uncertainty and normal seasonality in transaction volumes in the fiscal fourth quarter.
Fiscal 2010 Targets
Looking ahead, Starbucks introduced fiscal 2010 targets:
The company expects non-GAAP EPS growth in the range of 13 percent to 18 percent, excluding $0.02 to $0.03 of expected restructuring charges in the first half of fiscal 2010, and including approximately $0.02 of additional EPS from the extra week in the fiscal fourth quarter, as fiscal 2010 is a 53-week year for Starbucks.
The company expects full year U.S. segment operating margin improvement (excluding restructuring charges) of 150 to 200 basis points, and International segment operating margin improvement (excluding restructuring charges) of 200 to 250 basis points.

Non-GAAP Disclosure
In addition to the GAAP results provided in this release, the company provides non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP earnings per share (non-GAAP EPS), non-GAAP cost of sales including occupancy ratio, non-GAAP store operating expense ratio (store operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues), and non-GAAP store operating expenses as a percentage of company-operated retail revenues, as well as free cash flow. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net earnings, non-GAAP earnings per share (non-GAAP EPS), non-GAAP cost of sales including occupancy ratio, non-GAAP store operating expense ratio and non-GAAP store operating expenses as a percentage of company-operated retail revenues are operating income, operating margin, net earnings, diluted net earnings per share, cost of sales including occupancy costs as a percentage of total net revenues, store operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues, and store operating expenses as a percentage of company-operated retail revenues, respectively. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to free cash flow is cash flow from operations (or net cash provided by operating activities).
The non-GAAP financial measures provided in this release for fiscal 2009, other than free cash flow, exclude restructuring charges, primarily related to company-operated store closures and the impacts of the recent global workforce reductions. The non-GAAP financial measures provided in this release for fiscal 2008 exclude costs related to the company’s transformation efforts during such periods consisting primarily of charges related to slowing the pace of U.S. store openings and the associated termination of future site commitments, related inventory and store assets. Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures (or net additions to property, plant and equipment). The company’s management believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures better enables investors to understand and evaluate the company’s historical and prospective operating performance. More specifically, for historical non-GAAP financial measures other than free cash flow, management excludes each of those items mentioned above because it believes that these costs do not reflect expected future operating expenses and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company’s future operating performance or comparisons to the company’s past operating performance.
These non-GAAP financial measures may have limitations as analytical tools, and 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.
