Quarterly Results

Total revenues of $526.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 decreased $2.7 million, or 0.5%, compared with the fourth quarter of the prior year. Excluding the impact of refranchising 90 restaurants in the first quarter of 2022, total revenues increased $14.6 million, or 2.8%. The higher total revenue is primarily the result of a 7.9% increase in North America commissary sales tied to commodity inflation and a 1.1% increase in North America restaurants comparable sales, partially offset by lower international revenues.

For the fourth quarter of 2022, global system-wide restaurant sales were $1.20 billion, up 2.8% from a year ago (excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and previously disclosed franchisee suspended restaurants). The increase reflects higher equivalent units from net restaurant openings primarily in international markets as well as the increase in comparable sales in North America.

Operating income of $36.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 decreased $1.9 million or 5.1% compared to the fourth quarter last year. Adjusted operating income(a) was $38.2 million, down $3.7 million or 8.8% from the prior year comparable period. The decreases in both operating income and adjusted operating income were attributable to higher commodity costs, wage inflation and increased depreciation and amortization costs linked to investments in digital innovation.

Exhibit 99.1

Diluted earnings per common share was $0.66 for the fourth quarter of 2022, representing a decrease of $0.01 from the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share(a) was $0.71, representing a decrease of $0.04 from the fourth quarter of 2021. Diluted earnings per common share and adjusted diluted earnings per common share for the fourth quarter of 2022 reflected lower tax expenses compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, which partially offset lower operating income (or adjusted operating income) and higher interest expense linked to borrowings during 2022 that were utilized largely to fund share repurchases.

Full Year Results

Total revenues of $2.10 billion for 2022 were 1.6% higher than 2021 total revenues of $2.07 billion. Excluding the impact of refranchising 90 restaurants in the first quarter of 2022, total revenues increased $86.9 million or 4.4% for the year. The growth was primarily due to a 14.2% increase in North America commissary revenues in addition to a 4.5% increase in system-wide units and positive comparable sales for the year. This growth was partially offset by lower international revenues.

Operating income of $109.0 million for 2022 decreased $59.2 million or 35.2% compared with the prior year, as inflation drove commodity prices and wages higher during 2022. 2022 results also include $12.1 million in refranchising and impairment losses and $15.0 million of legal settlement costs. Adjusted operating income(a) for 2022, which excludes the refranchising and impairment losses and legal settlement costs, was $157.5 million, down $23.9 million or 13.2% from the prior year comparable period.

Diluted earnings per common share was $1.89 for 2022 compared with $0.12 in 2021. The increase in diluted earnings per common share in 2022 primarily resulted from the effect of cash consideration paid for the redemption of preferred stock in the 2021 comparable period. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share was $2.94 for 2022 representing a decrease of $0.57 compared with 2021. The decrease in adjusted diluted earnings per common share was attributable to lower adjusted operating income combined with higher interest expense in 2022 linked to higher borrowings utilized for share repurchases.

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 and dividends paid to preferred shareholders, was $39.4 million for the year ended December 25, 2022, compared with $109.7 million in the prior year period. The year over year change primarily reflects lower cash flow from operating activities as a result of overall business performance and lower accrued expenses, as well as increases in purchases of property and equipment.

Free cash flow$39,417$109,722

(a) Excludes cash consideration paid for the repurchase and conversion of the Company’s former Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred Stock”) in 2021.

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 and Share Repurchases

The Company paid cash dividends of $14.8 million ($0.42 per common share) in the fourth quarter of 2022. On January 26, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a first quarter 2023 dividend of $0.42 per common share. The dividend was paid on February 17, 2023 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 6, 2023.

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased 361,000 shares of common stock for $30.0 million pursuant to its share repurchase program. For the year ended December 25, 2022, the Company repurchased 1,343,000 shares of common stock for $125.0 million. As of December 25, 2022, the Company had $299.8 million remaining available for repurchase under its outstanding share repurchase authorization.

Supplemental Information and Financial Statements

Definitions

“Comparable sales” represents the change in year-over-year sales for the same base of restaurants for the same fiscal periods. Comparable sales excludes sales of restaurants that were not open during both the current and prior fiscal periods and franchisees for which we suspended corporate support. “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 total system restaurant sales year-over-year. 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 North America, International and global restaurant and comparable sales growth 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. Franchise restaurant and comparable sales growth information is also useful for comparison to industry trends and evaluating the strength of our brand. Management believes the presentation of franchise 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.

Exhibit 99.1
Non-GAAP 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 of Directors 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 below reconciles our GAAP financial results to our non-GAAP financial measures.
