DUNKIN’ BRANDS GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
(1) Description of business and organization
Dunkin’ Brands Group, Inc. (“DBGI”), together with its consolidated subsidiaries, is one of the world’s leading franchisors of restaurants serving coffee and baked goods, as well as ice cream, within the quick service restaurant segment of the restaurant industry. We franchise and license a system of both traditional and nontraditional quick service restaurants. Through our Dunkin’ brand, we franchise restaurants featuring coffee, espresso, donuts, bagels, breakfast sandwiches, and related products. Additionally, we license Dunkin’ brand products sold in certain retail outlets such as retail packaged coffee, Dunkin’ K-Cup® pods, and ready-to-drink bottled iced coffee. Through our Baskin-Robbins brand, we franchise restaurants featuring ice cream, frozen beverages, and related products. Additionally, we distribute Baskin-Robbins ice cream products to certain international markets for sale in Baskin-Robbins restaurants and certain retail outlets.
Throughout these unaudited consolidated financial statements, “Dunkin’ Brands,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “management” refer to DBGI and its consolidated subsidiaries taken as a whole.

All significant transactions and balances between subsidiaries and affiliates have been eliminated in consolidation.

Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
(b) Fiscal year

The data periods contained within the three- and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019 reflect the results of operations for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended on those dates. Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 26, 2020.
(c) Cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash
In accordance with the Company’s securitized financing facility, certain cash accounts have been established in the name of Citibank, N.A. (the “Trustee”) for the benefit of the Trustee and the noteholders, and are restricted in their use. The Company holds restricted cash which primarily represents (i) cash collections held by the Trustee, (ii) interest, principal, and commitment fee reserves held by the Trustee related to the Company’s notes (see note 4), and (iii) real estate reserves used to pay real estate obligations.

(d) Fair value of financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are categorized, based on the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. Observable market data, when available, is required to be used in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

The deferred compensation liabilities relate to the Dunkin’ Brands, Inc. non-qualified deferred compensation plans (“NQDC Plans”), which allow for pre-tax deferral of compensation for certain qualifying employees and directors. Changes in the fair value of the deferred compensation liabilities are derived using quoted prices in active markets of the asset selections made by the participants. The deferred compensation liabilities are classified within Level 2, as defined under U.S. GAAP, because their inputs are derived principally from observable market data by correlation to hypothetical investments. The Company holds company-owned life insurance policies to offset the Company’s liabilities under the NQDC Plans. The changes in the fair value of any company-owned life insurance policies are derived using determinable cash surrender value. As such, the company-owned life insurance policies are classified within Level 2, as defined under U.S. GAAP.

The estimated fair value of our long-term debt is estimated primarily based on current market rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities or current midpoint prices for our long-term debt. Judgment is required to develop these estimates. As such, the estimated fair value of long-term debt is classified within Level 2, as defined under U.S. GAAP.
(e) Concentration of credit risk
The Company is subject to credit risk through its accounts receivable consisting primarily of amounts due from franchisees and licensees for franchise fees, royalty income, advertising fees, and sales of ice cream and other products. In addition, we have

10


note and lease receivables from certain of our franchisees and licensees. The financial condition of these franchisees and licensees is largely dependent upon the underlying business trends of our brands and market conditions within the quick service restaurant industry. This concentration of credit risk is mitigated, in part, by the large number of franchisees and licensees of each brand and the short-term nature of the franchise and license fee and lease receivables. As of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, one master licensee, including its majority-owned subsidiaries, accounted for approximately 12% and 15%, respectively, of total accounts and notes receivable. No individual franchisee or master licensee accounted for more than 10% of total revenues for any of the three- and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019.
Additionally, the Company engages various third parties to manufacture and/or distribute certain Dunkin' and Baskin-Robbins products under licensing arrangements. As of June 27, 2020, one of these third parties accounted for approximately 13% of total accounts and notes receivable. No individual third party accounted for more than 10% of total accounts and notes receivable as of December 28, 2019. No individual third party accounted for more than 10% of total revenues for any of the three- and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019.
(f) Recent accounting pronouncements
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued new guidance for financial instruments which requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Company adopted this new guidance in fiscal year 2020 using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
The Company closely monitors the financial condition of our franchisees, licensees, and other third parties and estimates the allowance for credit losses based upon the lifetime expected loss on receivables. These estimates are based on historical collection experience with our franchisees, licensees, and other third parties as well as other factors, including those related to current market conditions and events. Included in the allowance for credit losses is a provision for uncollectible royalty, franchise fee, advertising fee, ice cream, and licensing fee receivables (see note 13).
The Company also monitors its off-balance sheet exposures under its letters of credit and supply chain and other guarantees. None of these arrangements has or is likely to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, revenues, expenses or liquidity.
(g) Subsequent events
Subsequent events have been evaluated up through the date that these consolidated financial statements were filed.

Receivables relate primarily to payments due for royalties, franchise fees, advertising fees, sales of ice cream and other products, and licensing fees. Contract assets relate primarily to consideration paid to customers, including franchisee incentives, that exceeds the fixed consideration received for certain contracts, net of any revenue recognized. Deferred revenue primarily represents the Company’s remaining performance obligations under its franchise and license agreements for which consideration has been received or is receivable, and is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the related agreement.
The decrease in the deferred revenue balance as of June 27, 2020 was driven primarily by $18.4 million of revenues recognized that were included in the opening deferred revenue balance as of December 28, 2019, as well as franchisee incentives provided during fiscal year 2020, offset by cash payments received or due in advance of satisfying our performance obligations.
(c) Transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations
Estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are either unsatisfied or partially satisfied at June 27, 2020 is as follows (in thousands):

The Company's outstanding debt as of June 27, 2020 included Series 2017-1 3.629% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-I (the “2017 Class A-2-I Notes”), Series 2017-1 4.030% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-II (the “2017 Class A-2-II Notes” and, together with the 2017 Class A-2-I Notes, the “2017 Class A-2 Notes”), Series 2019-1 3.787% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-I (the “2019 Class A-2-I Notes”), Series 2019-1 4.021% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-II (the “2019 Class A-2-II Notes”), and Series 2019-1 4.352% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-III (the “2019 Class A-2-III Notes” and, together with the 2019 Class A-2-I Notes and 2019 Class A-2-II Notes, the “2019 Class A-2 Notes”) issued by DB Master Finance LLC (the “Master Issuer”), a limited-purpose, bankruptcy-remote, wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of DBGI. In addition, the Master Issuer issued Series 2019-1 Variable Funding Senior Secured Notes, Class A-1 (the “2019 Variable Funding Notes” and, together with the 2019 Class A-2 Notes, the “2019 Notes”), which allow for the issuance of up to $150.0 million of 2019 Variable Funding Notes and certain other credit instruments, including letters of credit.
No principal payments are required on the Company's outstanding debt if a specified leverage ratio, which is a measure of outstanding debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted for certain items (as specified in the base indenture and related supplemental indentures, collectively, the “Indenture”), is less than or equal to 5.0 to 1.0. As of March 28, 2020, the Company's leverage ratio was less than 5.0 to 1.0. As such, the Company did not make the scheduled principal payment of $7.8 million in May 2020. As of June 27, 2020, the Company's leverage ratio was greater than 5.0 to 1.0. As such, the Company intends to make the next scheduled principal payment of $7.8 million in August 2020. The Company has classified payments that are expected to be made within the next twelve month period as current portion of long-term debt in the consolidated balance sheet.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic. On March 16, 2020, the Company borrowed $116.0 million against the 2019 Variable Funding Notes as a precautionary measure given the market uncertainty arising from COVID-19 and to further strengthen financial flexibility. Borrowings under the 2019 Variable Funding Notes bear interest at a rate equal to a LIBOR rate plus 1.50%. The Company repaid all borrowings under the 2019 Variable Funding Notes during the second fiscal quarter of 2020.
As of each of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, $33.1 million of letters of credit were outstanding against the 2019 Variable Funding Notes, which related primarily to interest reserves required under the Indenture. There were no amounts drawn down on these letters of credit as of June 27, 2020 or December 28, 2019.
The 2017 Class A-2 Notes and 2019 Notes were each issued in a securitization transaction pursuant to which most of the Company’s domestic and certain of its foreign revenue-generating assets, consisting principally of franchise-related agreements, real estate assets, and intellectual property and license agreements for the use of intellectual property, are held by the Master Issuer and certain other limited-purpose, bankruptcy-remote, wholly-owned indirect subsidiaries of the Company that act as guarantors of the 2017 Class A-2 Notes and 2019 Notes and that pledged substantially all of their assets to secure the 2017 Class A-2 Notes and 2019 Notes.

(6) Segment information
The Company is strategically aligned into two global brands, Dunkin’ and Baskin-Robbins, which are further segregated between U.S. operations and international operations. Additionally, the Company administers and directs the development of all advertising and promotional programs in the U.S. As such, the Company has determined that it has five reportable segments: Dunkin’ U.S., Baskin-Robbins U.S., Dunkin’ International, Baskin-Robbins International, and U.S. Advertising Funds. Dunkin’ U.S., Baskin-Robbins U.S., and Dunkin’ International primarily derive their revenues through royalty income and franchise fees. Baskin-Robbins U.S. also derives revenue through license fees from a third-party license agreement and rental income. Dunkin’ U.S. also derives revenue through rental income. Baskin-Robbins International primarily derives its revenues from sales of ice cream products, as well as royalty income and franchise fees. U.S. Advertising Funds primarily derive revenues through continuing advertising fees from Dunkin’ and Baskin-Robbins franchisees. The operating results of each segment are regularly reviewed and evaluated separately by the Company’s senior management, which includes, but is not limited to, the chief executive officer. Senior management primarily evaluates the performance of its segments and allocates resources to them based on operating income adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, long-lived asset impairment charges, and certain non-recurring, infrequent or unusual charges, which does not reflect the allocation of any corporate charges. This profitability measure is referred to as segment profit. When senior management reviews a balance sheet, it is at a consolidated level. The accounting policies applicable to each segment are generally consistent with those used in the consolidated financial statements.
Revenues for all operating segments include only transactions with unaffiliated customers and include no intersegment revenues. Revenues reported as “Other” include revenues earned through certain licensing arrangements with third parties in which our brand names are used, including the licensing fees earned from the Dunkin’ K-Cup® pod licensing agreement and sales of Dunkin’ branded ready-to-drink bottled iced coffee and retail packaged coffee, revenues generated from online training programs for franchisees, advertising fees and related income from international advertising funds, breakage and other revenue related to the gift card program, and corporate financial relief provided to franchisees, all of which are not allocated to a specific segment. Revenues by segment were as follows (in thousands):

(7) Stockholders’ deficit
(a) Treasury stock
During the six months ended June 27, 2020, the Company repurchased a total of 880,933 shares of common stock in the open market for total consideration of $64.3 million.
The Company accounts for treasury stock under the cost method based on the cost of the shares on the dates of repurchase plus any direct costs incurred. During the six months ended June 27, 2020, the Company retired 880,933 shares of treasury stock repurchased in the open market. The repurchase and retirement of these shares of treasury stock resulted in a decrease in additional paid-in capital of $5.6 million and an increase in accumulated deficit of $58.7 million.
(b) Equity incentive plans
During the six months ended June 27, 2020, the Company granted stock options to purchase 681,862 shares of common stock and 59,944 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain employees and members of our board of directors. The stock options vest in equal annual amounts over a four-year period subsequent to the grant date, and have a maximum contractual term of seven years. The stock options were granted with a weighted-average exercise price of $75.80 per share and had a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $11.55 per share. The RSUs granted to certain employees and members of our board of directors

19


generally vest in equal annual amounts over a three-year period and a one-year period, respectively, subsequent to the grant date and had a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $69.75 per unit.
In addition, the Company granted 45,964 performance stock units (“PSUs”) to certain employees during the six months ended June 27, 2020. These PSUs are generally eligible to cliff-vest approximately three years from the grant date. Of the total PSUs granted, 21,225 PSUs are subject to a service condition and a market vesting condition linked to the level of total shareholder return received by the Company’s stockholders during the performance period measured against the companies in the S&P 500 Composite Index (“TSR PSUs”). The remaining 24,739 PSUs granted are subject to a service condition and a performance vesting condition based on the level of adjusted operating income growth achieved over the performance period (“AOI PSUs”). The maximum vesting percentage that could be realized for each of the TSR PSUs and the AOI PSUs is 200% based on the level of performance achieved for the respective awards. All of the PSUs are also subject to a one-year post-vesting holding period. The TSR PSUs were valued based on a Monte Carlo simulation model to reflect the impact of the total shareholder return market condition, resulting in a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $81.64 per unit. The probability of satisfying a market condition is considered in the estimation of the grant-date fair value for TSR PSUs and the compensation cost is not reversed if the market condition is not achieved, provided the requisite service has been provided. The AOI PSUs had a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $72.95 per unit. Total compensation cost for the AOI PSUs is determined based on the most likely outcome of the performance condition and the number of awards expected to vest based on the outcome.
Total compensation expense related to all share-based awards was $2.8 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively, and $6.2 million and $7.3 million for the six months ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively, and was included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company paid a quarterly dividend of $0.4025 per share of common stock on March 18, 2020, totaling approximately $33.1 million. On April 30, 2020, the Company announced that its board of directors had suspended the Company's regular dividend program in response to the uncertainty arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. On July 30, 2020, the Company announced that its board of directors had reinstated the Company's regular dividend program and declared a dividend of $0.4025 per share of common stock, payable on September 9, 2020 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 1, 2020.

The weighted-average number of shares of common stock in the common diluted earnings per share calculation for all periods excludes all contingently issuable equity awards outstanding for which the contingent vesting criteria were not yet met as of the fiscal period end. As of June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, there were 86,176 and 40,340 shares, respectively, related to equity awards that were contingently issuable and for which the contingent vesting criteria were not yet met as of the fiscal period end. Additionally, the weighted-average number of shares of common stock in the common diluted earnings per share calculation excludes 2,020,419 and 656,958 equity awards for the three months ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively, and 1,687,109 and 663,951 equity awards for the six months ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively, as they would be antidilutive.
(9) Commitments and contingencies
(a) Supply chain guarantees
The Company has entered into various agreements with suppliers of franchisee products, the majority of which contain guarantees by the Company related to franchisees' purchases of certain volumes of products over specified periods. The Company's guarantees decrease as franchisees purchase products over their respective terms of the agreements. The guarantees have varying terms, many of which are one year or less, and the latest of which expires in 2022. As of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the Company was contingently liable under such supply chain agreements for approximately $70.3 million and $100.9 million, respectively. The Company assesses the risk of performing under each of these guarantees on a quarterly basis, and, based on various factors including internal forecasts, prior history, and ability to extend contract terms, the Company accrued an inconsequential amount of reserves related to supply chain guarantees as of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019.
(b) Letters of credit
As of each of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, the Company had standby letters of credit outstanding for a total of $33.1 million. There were no amounts drawn down on these letters of credit as of each of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019.
(c) Legal matters
The Company is engaged in several matters of litigation arising in the ordinary course of its business as a franchisor. Such matters include disputes related to compliance with the terms of franchise and development agreements, including claims or threats of claims of breach of contract, negligence, and other alleged violations by the Company. As of each of June 27, 2020 and December 28, 2019, an inconsequential amount was accrued related to outstanding litigation.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is waiving up to one month of rental payments and allowed franchisees to defer two months of rental payments on the approximately 900 properties leased by the Company to franchisees. Additionally, on properties the Company leases from third-party lessors, certain lessors provided waivers of rental payments, which the Company passed through to its franchisees, or permitted the short-term deferral of rental payments.
The FASB staff issued interpretive guidance on the application of lease accounting guidance related to lease concessions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Under existing lease accounting guidance, certain rent waivers and deferrals provided to franchisees or received from lessors would be accounted for as lease modifications. The interpretive guidance provides companies the option to account for eligible lease concessions either as if the rent concessions were part of the enforceable rights and obligations under the original lease contracts, or as lease modifications under the existing guidance. The Company has elected to account for eligible lease concessions as if they were part of the enforceable rights and obligations under the original lease contracts. Accordingly, the Company has not remeasured the related lease assets or lease liabilities for eligible leases, and has recognized waivers of rental payments as reductions of variable rental income and variable occupancy expenses

22


for leases where the Company is the lessor and lessee, respectively. The deferral of rental payments had no impact on the Company’s recognition of rental income or occupancy expenses for the three or six months ended June 27, 2020.
Variable rental income presented in the table above has been reduced by approximately $3 million of rent waivers being provided to the Company's franchisees for each of the three and six months ended June 27, 2020. Occupancy expenses—franchised restaurants in the consolidated statements of operations has been reduced by approximately $1 million of rent waivers received from lessors for each of the three and six months ended June 27, 2020.

(14) COVID-19 Pandemic
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 as a pandemic. The pandemic had an unfavorable impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, including temporary closures of restaurants and decreased traffic.
In response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has taken a series of actions to preserve financial flexibility and support franchisees during this time of uncertainty. These actions include temporarily extending payment terms for royalties and advertising fees for franchisees in the U.S. and Canada from 12 to 45 days through mid-May, as well as providing payment plan options for these deferred fees, to provide franchisees with more financial flexibility to better support their employees and guests. Additionally, the Company provided extended payment terms and payment plan options to franchisees and licensees in certain international markets. The Company also provided $8.0 million of corporate financial relief to franchisees in the U.S. that were most significantly impacted by the pandemic. In addition, the Company is waiving up to one month of rental payments and allowed franchisees to defer two months of rental payments on the approximately 900 properties leased by the Company to franchisees (see note 12).
While it is not possible at this time to estimate the full impact that the pandemic could have on our business due to numerous uncertainties, the continued spread of COVID-19 and the measures taken by local and national governments have disrupted and are expected to continue to disrupt our operations and may also impact the supply chain, resulting in an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including statements about our expected financial results, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, our ability to meet cash needs, our expected compliance with the covenants under the securitization documentation, and liquidity are not based on historical fact and are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the applicable securities laws and regulations. Generally, these statements can be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “feel,” “forecast,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “project,” “should,” or “would,” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the continuing and uncertain impact of the current COVID-19 global pandemic on our business; the ongoing level of profitability of franchisees and licensees; our franchisees’ and licensees’ ability to sustain same store sales growth; changes in working relationships with our franchisees and licensees and the actions of our franchisees and licensees; our master franchisees’ relationships with sub-franchisees; the success of our investments in the Dunkin' U.S. Blueprint for Growth; the strength of our brand in the markets in which we compete; changes in competition within the quick service restaurant segment of the food industry; changes in consumer behavior resulting from changes in technologies or alternative methods of delivery; economic and political conditions in the countries where we operate; our substantial indebtedness; our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; consumer preferences, spending patterns and demographic trends; the impact of seasonal changes, including weather effects, on our business; the success of our growth strategy and international development; changes in commodity and food prices, particularly coffee, dairy products and sugar, and other operating costs; shortages of coffee; failure of our network and information technology systems; interruptions or shortages in the supply of products to our franchisees and licensees; the impact of food borne-illness or food safety issues or adverse public or media opinions regarding the health effects of consuming our products; our ability to collect royalty payments from our franchisees and licensees; uncertainties relating to litigation; the ability of our franchisees and licensees to open new restaurants and keep existing restaurants in operation; our ability to retain key personnel; any failure to protect consumer payment card data or other personally identifiable information; and catastrophic events.
Forward-looking statements reflect management’s analysis as of the date of this quarterly report. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations are more fully described in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including under the section headed “Risk Factors” in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and within Item 1A of Part II of this Form 10-Q. Except as required by applicable law, we do not undertake to publicly update or revise any of these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Introduction and overview
We are one of the world’s leading franchisors of quick service restaurants (“QSRs”) serving hot and cold coffee and baked goods, as well as hard serve ice cream. We franchise restaurants under our Dunkin’ and Baskin-Robbins brands. With more than 21,000 points of distribution in more than 60 countries worldwide, we believe that our portfolio has strong brand awareness in our key markets. QSR is a restaurant format characterized by limited or no table service. As of June 27, 2020, Dunkin’ had 13,125 global points of distribution with restaurants in 43 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and 40 foreign countries. Baskin-Robbins had 7,981 global points of distribution as of the same date, with restaurants in 44 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and 51 foreign countries.
We are organized into five reporting segments: Dunkin’ U.S., Baskin-Robbins U.S., Dunkin’ International, Baskin-Robbins International, and U.S. Advertising Funds. We generate revenue from five primary sources: (i) royalty income and franchise fees associated with franchised restaurants, (ii) continuing advertising fees from Dunkin’ and Baskin-Robbins franchisees and breakage and other revenue related to the gift card program, (iii) rental income from restaurant properties that we lease or sublease to franchisees, (iv) sales of ice cream and other products to franchisees in certain international markets, and (v) other income including fees for the licensing of our brands for products sold in certain retail outlets, the licensing of the rights to manufacture Baskin-Robbins ice cream products sold to U.S. franchisees, refranchising gains, and online training fees.
Franchisees fund the vast majority of the cost of new restaurant development. As a result, we are able to grow our system with lower capital requirements than many of our competitors. With no company-operated points of distribution as of June 27, 2020, we are less affected by store-level costs, profitability, and fluctuations in commodity costs than other QSR operators.
We operate and report financial information on a 52- or 53-week year on a 13-week quarter basis with the fiscal year ending on the last Saturday in December and fiscal quarters ending on the 13th Saturday of each quarter (or 14th Saturday when

24


applicable with respect to the fourth fiscal quarter). The data periods contained within the three- and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019 reflect the results of operations for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended on those dates. Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 26, 2020.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic. While it is not possible at this time to estimate the full impact that the pandemic could have on our business due to numerous uncertainties, the continued spread of COVID-19 and the measures taken by local and national governments have disrupted and are expected to continue to disrupt our operations and may also impact the supply chain, resulting in an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our financial results are largely driven by changes in systemwide sales, which include sales by all points of distribution, whether owned by our franchisees or joint ventures. While we do not record sales by franchisees or joint ventures as revenue, and such sales are not included in our consolidated financial statements, we believe that this operating measure is important in obtaining an understanding of our financial performance. We believe systemwide sales information aids in understanding how we derive royalty revenue and in evaluating our performance relative to competitors.
Comparable store sales growth (decline) for Dunkin’ U.S. and Baskin-Robbins U.S. is calculated by including only sales from franchisee-operated restaurants that have been open at least 78 weeks and that have reported sales in the current and comparable prior year week. Comparable store sales growth (decline) for Dunkin’ International and Baskin-Robbins International generally represents the growth (decline) in local currency average monthly sales for franchisee-operated restaurants, including joint ventures, that have been open at least 13 months and that have reported sales in the current and comparable prior year month.
The COVID-19 pandemic had an unfavorable impact on systemwide sales for each of our segments for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020. Global declines in systemwide sales of 20.8% and 11.1% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, respectively, over the same periods in the prior fiscal year resulted from the following:
Dunkin’ U.S. systemwide sales declines of 20.7% and 11.0% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, respectively, were primarily a result of comparable store sales declines of 18.7% and 10.6%, respectively, offset by 98 net new restaurants opened since June 29, 2019. Comparable store sales declined for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 as a decline in traffic driven by the COVID-19 pandemic was offset by an increase in average ticket. The increase in average ticket was driven primarily by favorable mix shift to family-size bulk orders and snacking attachment, as well as premium priced cold beverages, espresso, and other specialty beverages, and partially offset by

25


increased discounting driven by both national and local value platforms. Comparable store sales improved sequentially in each month of the second quarter.
Baskin-Robbins U.S. systemwide sales declines of 7.4% and 3.8% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, respectively, were primarily a result of comparable store sales declines of 6.0% and 2.8%, respectively, and 45 net restaurant closures since June 29, 2019. The comparable store sales declines were driven by a decline in traffic primarily driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, offset by an increase in average ticket. The increase in average ticket was driven primarily by take home products, specifically ice cream quarts and cakes. Comparable store sales improved sequentially in each month of the second quarter of fiscal year 2020.
Dunkin’ International systemwide sales declines of 43.4% and 27.0% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, respectively, were driven by sales declines in Asia, Latin America, Europe, and South Korea. Sales in Latin America, South Korea, and Europe were negatively impacted by unfavorable foreign exchange rates for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020. On a constant currency basis, systemwide sales decreased by approximately 42% and 25% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, respectively. Dunkin’ International comparable store sales declines of 34.9% and 20.3% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, respectively, were due primarily to declines in the Middle East, Asia, Europe, and Latin America.
Baskin-Robbins International systemwide sales declines of 15.5% and 6.3% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, respectively, were driven by sales declines in Japan, the Middle East, Asia, and Europe, offset by sales growth in South Korea. Sales in Japan were positively impacted by favorable foreign exchange rates while sales across all other regions were negatively impacted by unfavorable foreign exchange rates. On a constant currency basis, systemwide sales decreased by approximately 14% and 4% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, respectively. Baskin-Robbins International comparable store sales declines of 5.3% and 1.6% for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, respectively, were driven primarily by declines in the Middle East, Europe, and Asia, offset by growth in South Korea. Also contributing to the decline in comparable store sales for the three months ended June 27, 2020 was a decline in Japan.    
Changes in systemwide sales are impacted, in part, by changes in the number of points of distribution. Points of distribution and net openings (closings) as of and for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019 were as follows:

(a)
Temporary restaurant closures due to COVID-19 are not treated as restaurant closures and affected restaurants are included in points of distribution.
Dunkin’ U.S. comparable store sales improved week-over-week during the first four weeks of the third quarter of fiscal year 2020. As of the week ended July 25, 2020, Dunkin’ U.S. quarter-to-date comparable store sales declines were
low-single digits for open stores. Baskin-Robbins U.S. comparable store sales also improved week-over-week during the first four weeks of the third quarter of fiscal year 2020. As of the week ended July 25, 2020, Baskin-Robbins U.S. quarter-to-date comparable store sales declines were low-single digits for open stores. However, there can be no assurance that further declines in systemwide sales or comparable store sales will not occur for the remainder of the third quarter or beyond as a result of the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic or otherwise.

26


As of July 25, 2020, approximately 96% of Dunkin' U.S. locations were open. The majority of the Dunkin' U.S. locations that remain temporarily closed are in transportation hubs, on college campuses, and other alternative points of distribution. As of July 25, 2020, approximately 98% of Baskin-Robbins U.S. locations were open. The majority of the Baskin-Robbins U.S. locations that remain temporarily closed are non-traditional locations. As of July 25, 2020, approximately 90% of each of Dunkin' and Baskin-Robbins International locations were open. We have worked with our franchisees to permit them to temporarily close restaurants where market conditions warrant. Our restaurants have been deemed an essential business in many jurisdictions allowing them to remain open in some capacity throughout the course of the pandemic. Dunkin' U.S. has a flexible operating model where it can often continue to offer drive-thru, delivery, and curbside service where in-restaurant dining is not permitted. The Company is unable to predict the reopening schedule for restaurants that are temporarily closed due to the pandemic, or whether and when additional closures may occur.
Summary of operating results
Total revenues for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $72.0 million, or 20.0%, and $67.9 million, or 10.0%, compared to the prior year periods due primarily to decreases in royalty income and advertising fees driven by declines in systemwide sales, primarily for the Dunkin' U.S. segment. Royalty income for each of the three and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 also reflects a reduction of revenue of approximately $8 million related to corporate financial relief provided to franchisees most significantly impacted by the pandemic. Also contributing to the decreases in revenues for each of the three and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 were decreases in rental income as the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 reflected rent waivers being provided to our franchisees of approximately $3 million and declines in variable rental income due to the declines in systemwide sales, as well as decreases in sales of ice cream and other products. Offsetting these decreases in revenue for three and six months ended June 27, 2020 were increases in other revenues driven primarily by license fees related to Dunkin’ K-Cup® pods.
Operating income and adjusted operating income for the three months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $41.0 million and $40.6 million, respectively, compared to the prior year period. Operating income and adjusted operating income for the six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $41.1 million and $40.9 million, respectively, compared to the prior year period. These decreases were primarily a result of the decreases in royalty income and decreases in rental margin, which includes approximately $2 million of unfavorable impact from rent waivers being provided to our franchisees, net of waivers received from landlords. These decreases in operating income and adjusted operating income were offset by decreases in general and administrative expenses primarily as a result of decreases in incentive compensation and reduced non-essential spending in the current year periods to preserve financial flexibility as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, offset by increases in reserves for uncollectible receivables.
Net income and adjusted net income for the three months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $23.2 million and $32.3 million, respectively, compared to the prior year period. Net income and adjusted net income for the six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $23.4 million and $32.7 million, respectively, compared to the prior year period. These decreases were primarily a result of the decreases in operating income and adjusted operating income, respectively, as well as decreases in interest income earned on our cash balances, offset by decreases in income tax expense. The decreases in income tax expense were driven primarily by decreases in income in the current year periods, offset by decreases in excess tax benefits from share-based compensation. Also offsetting the decreases in operating income was a $13.1 million loss on debt extinguishment recorded during the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 due to the write-off of debt issuance costs in conjunction with a refinancing transaction completed during the second quarter of fiscal year 2019.
Adjusted operating income and adjusted net income are non-GAAP measures reflecting operating income and net income adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, long-lived asset impairments, and other non-recurring, infrequent, or unusual charges, net of the tax impact of such adjustments in the case of adjusted net income. We use adjusted operating income and adjusted net income as key performance measures for the purpose of evaluating performance internally. We also believe adjusted operating income and adjusted net income provide our investors with useful information regarding our historical operating results. These non-GAAP measurements are not intended to replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. Use of the terms adjusted operating income and adjusted net income may differ from similar measures reported by other companies.

Diluted adjusted earnings per share of common stock is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP, and our use of the term diluted adjusted earnings per share of common stock may vary from similar measures reported by others in our industry due to the potential differences in the method of calculation. Diluted adjusted earnings per share of common stock should not be considered as an alternative to earnings per share of common stock derived in accordance with GAAP. Diluted adjusted earnings per share of common stock has important limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because of these limitations, we rely primarily on our GAAP results. However, we believe that presenting diluted adjusted earnings per share of common stock is appropriate to provide investors with useful information regarding our historical operating results.
The following table sets forth the computation of diluted adjusted earnings per share of common stock:

Total revenues for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $72.0 million, or 20.0%, and $67.9 million, or 10.0%, compared to the prior year periods due primarily to decreases in royalty income and advertising fees driven by declines in systemwide sales, primarily for the Dunkin' U.S. segment. Royalty income for each of the three and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 also reflects a reduction of revenue of approximately $8 million related to corporate financial relief provided to franchisees most significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Also contributing to the decreases in revenues for each of the three and six-month periods ended June 27, 2020 were decreases in rental income as the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 reflected rent waivers being provided to our franchisees of approximately $3 million and declines in variable rental income due to the declines in systemwide sales, as well as decreases in sales of ice cream and other products. Offsetting these decreases in revenue for three and six months ended June 27, 2020 were increases in other revenues driven primarily by license fees related to Dunkin’ K-Cup® pods.

Occupancy expenses for franchised restaurants for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $1.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively, due primarily to declines in variable rental expense as a result of the declines in systemwide sales and rent waivers received from our landlords.
Net margin on ice cream and other products for the three months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $0.5 million, or 10.0%, due primarily to a decrease in sales volume. Net margin on ice cream and other products for the six months ended June 27, 2020 increased $1.2 million, or 12.7%, due primarily to a decrease in commodity costs.
Advertising expenses for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $19.9 million and $19.7 million, respectively. The decreases in advertising expenses were driven primarily by decreases in advertising fees and related income.
General and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $7.8 million and $3.4 million, respectively, due primarily to decreases in incentive compensation and reduced non-essential spending in the current year period to preserve financial flexibility as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, offset by increases in reserves for uncollectible receivables and expenses incurred to support health and safety measures at our restaurants as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Depreciation and amortization for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 increased $1.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively, due primarily to an increase in depreciable assets, primarily comprised of technology infrastructure to support the Dunkin' mobile ordering and payment platform.
Long-lived asset impairment charges for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 increased $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Long-lived asset impairment charges generally fluctuate based on the timing of lease terminations and the related write-off of leasehold improvements.
Net income of equity method investments for the three months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $0.1 million primarily as a result of unfavorable results from our Japan joint venture compared to the prior year period, offset by an increase in net income from

30


our South Korea joint venture. Net income of equity method investments for the six months ended June 27, 2020 increased $1.3 million primarily as a result of an increase in net income from our South Korea joint venture.
Other operating income, net, which includes net gains and losses recognized in connection with the sale or disposal of property, equipment, and software as well as other miscellaneous income, fluctuates based on the timing of such transactions.

Net interest expense for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 increased $2.6 million and $2.3 million, respectively, driven primarily by decreases in interest income earned on our cash balances.
The loss on debt extinguishment of $13.1 million for each of the three- and six-month periods ended June 29, 2019 was due to the write-off of debt issuance costs in conjunction with the securitization refinancing transaction completed during the second quarter of fiscal year 2019.
The fluctuation in other loss (income), net, for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 resulted primarily from net foreign exchange gains and losses driven primarily by fluctuations in the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies.

The increase in the effective tax rate for the three months ended June 27, 2020 compared to the prior year period was driven primarily by excess tax benefits from share-based compensation of $1.5 million recognized for the three months ended June 29, 2019 compared to an immaterial amount recognized in the current year period. The increase in the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 27, 2020 compared to the prior year period was also driven primarily by excess tax benefits from share-based compensation of $2.6 million for the six months ended June 29, 2019 compared to $1.1 million for the current year period.
Operating segments
We operate five reportable operating segments: Dunkin’ U.S., Baskin-Robbins U.S., Dunkin’ International, Baskin-Robbins International, and U.S. Advertising Funds. We evaluate the performance of our segments and allocate resources to them based on operating income adjusted for amortization of intangible assets, long-lived asset impairment charges, and certain non-recurring, infrequent or unusual charges, which does not reflect the allocation of any corporate charges. This profitability measure is referred to as segment profit. Segment profit for the Dunkin’ International and Baskin-Robbins International segments includes net income of equity method investments, except for other-than-temporary impairment charges and the related reduction in depreciation, net of tax, on the underlying long-lived assets.
For reconciliations to total revenues and income before income taxes, see note 6 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements. Revenues for all segments include only transactions with unaffiliated customers and include no intersegment revenues. Revenues not included in segment revenues include revenue earned through certain licensing arrangements with third parties in which our brand names are used, revenue generated from online training programs for franchisees, advertising fees and related income from international advertising funds, and breakage and other revenue related to the gift card program, all of

31


which are not allocated to a specific segment. Additionally, allocation of the consideration from sales of ice cream and other products to royalty income as consideration for the use of the franchise license, certain franchisee incentives, and corporate financial relief provided to franchisees are not reflected within segment revenues, but have no impact to total revenues for any segment.

Dunkin’ U.S. revenues for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $32.4 million and $30.4 million, respectively, due primarily to decreases in royalty income driven by the declines in systemwide sales, as well as decreases in rental income due to rent waivers provided to our franchisees and declines in variable rental income as a result of the declines in systemwide sales. Offsetting these decreases in revenues were increases in franchise fees as a result of additional deferred revenue recognized in connection with the closure of Speedway locations.
Dunkin’ U.S. segment profit for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $30.9 million and $32.7 million, respectively, due primarily to decreases in royalty income and rental margin, offset by the increases in franchise fees. Also contributing to the decrease in segment profit for the six-month period was an increase in general and administrative expenses resulting primarily from an increase in reserves for uncollectible receivables.

Additionally, sales of ice cream and other products decreased for the three-month period, while sales of ice cream and other products increased for the six-month period.
Baskin-Robbins U.S. segment profit for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $0.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively, primarily as a result of the decreases in royalty income and other revenues, offset by decreases in general and administrative expenses.

The decreases in franchise fees were due primarily to additional deferred revenue recognized in the prior year periods upon closure of certain international markets.
Baskin-Robbins International segment profit for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $2.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively, primarily as a result of a decrease in net margin on ice cream due primarily to a decrease in sales volume, as well as the decreases in franchise fees and royalty income, offset by increases in net income from our South Korea joint venture. Also contributing to the decrease in segment profit for the three-month period were unfavorable results from our Japan joint venture compared to the prior year period. Also contributing to the decrease in segment profit for the six-month period was an increase in general and administrative expenses due primarily to an increase in reserves for uncollectible receivables, offset by a decrease in travel expenses.

U.S. Advertising Funds revenues for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 decreased $24.1 million, or 19.5%, and $24.1 million, or 10.4%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods driven primarily by the decline in Dunkin' U.S. systemwide sales. Expenses for the U.S. Advertising Funds were equivalent to revenues in each period, resulting in no segment profit.
Liquidity and capital resources
As of June 27, 2020, we held $515.9 million of cash and cash equivalents and $95.1 million of short-term restricted cash that was restricted under our securitized financing facility. Included in cash and cash equivalents is $192.8 million of cash held for advertising funds and reserved for gift card/certificate programs.
Operating, investing, and financing cash flows
Net cash provided by operating activities was $11.7 million for the six months ended June 27, 2020, as compared to $53.1 million in the prior year period. The $41.4 million decrease in operating cash inflows was driven primarily by an increase in accounts receivable due primarily to extended payment terms provided to franchisees and licensees, a decrease in pre-tax net income related to operating activities, excluding non-cash items and an increase in incentive compensation payments, offset by a decrease in cash paid for income taxes, as well as various other changes in working capital.
Net cash used in investing activities was $10.6 million for the six months ended June 27, 2020, as compared to $17.8 million in the prior year period. The $7.2 million decrease in investing cash outflows was driven primarily by a decrease in capital expenditures of $8.0 million.
Net cash used in financing activities was $97.2 million for the six months ended June 27, 2020, as compared to $69.2 million in the prior year period. The $28.0 million increase in financing cash outflows was driven primarily by incremental cash used in the current year period for repurchases of common stock of $54.2 million and a decrease in cash generated from the exercise of stock options in the current year period of $6.5 million, offset by a decrease in quarterly dividends paid on common stock of $28.9 million.
Adjusted operating and investing cash flow
Net cash flows from operating and investing activities for the six months ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019 included net cash outflows of $49.4 million and $50.2 million, respectively, related to advertising funds and gift card/certificate programs. Excluding cash held for advertising funds and reserved for gift card/certificate programs, we generated $50.5 million and $85.4 million of adjusted operating and investing cash flow during the six months ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively. The decrease in adjusted operating and investing cash flow was driven primarily by an increase in accounts receivable due primarily to extended payment terms provided to franchisees and licensees, the decrease in pre-tax net income related to operating activities, excluding non-cash items and the increase in incentive compensation payments, offset by the decreases in cash paid for income taxes and capital expenditures, as well as various other changes in working capital.
Adjusted operating and investing cash flow is a non-GAAP measure reflecting net cash provided by operating and investing activities, excluding the cash flows related to advertising funds and gift card/certificate programs. We use adjusted operating and investing cash flow as a key liquidity measure for the purpose of evaluating our ability to generate cash. We also believe adjusted operating and investing cash flow provides our investors with useful information regarding our historical cash flow results. This non-GAAP measurement is not intended to replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP, and adjusted operating and investing cash flow does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures. Use of the term adjusted operating and investing cash flow may differ from similar measures reported by other companies.

Borrowing capacity
As of June 27, 2020, there was approximately $3.06 billion of total principal outstanding on the 2017 Class A-2 Notes (as defined below) and 2019 Class A-2 Notes (as defined below). In March 2020, the Company borrowed $116.0 million under our $150.0 million 2019 Variable Funding Notes (as defined below) as a precautionary measure given the market uncertainty arising from COVID-19 and to further strengthen financial flexibility. The Company repaid all borrowings under the 2019 Variable Funding Notes during the second fiscal quarter of 2020. As of June 27, 2020, there was $116.9 million in available commitments under the 2019 Variable Funding Notes as $33.1 million of letters of credit were outstanding.
In April 2019, DB Master Finance LLC (the "Master Issuer"), a limited-purpose, bankruptcy-remote, wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Dunkin’ Brands Group, Inc., issued Series 2019-1 3.787% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-I (the “2019 Class A-2-I Notes”) with an initial principal amount of $600.0 million, Series 2019-1 4.021% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-II (the “2019 Class A-2-II Notes”) with an initial principal amount of $400.0 million, and Series 2019-1 4.352% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-III (the “2019 Class A-2-III Notes”, and together with the 2019 Class A-2-I Notes and 2019 Class A-2-II Notes, the “2019 Class A-2 Notes”) with an initial principal amount of $700.0 million. In addition, the Master Issuer issued Series 2019-1 Variable Funding Senior Secured Notes, Class A-1 (the “2019 Variable Funding Notes” and, together with the 2019 Class A-2 Notes, the “2019 Notes”), which allow for the issuance of up to $150.0 million of 2019 Variable Funding Notes and certain other credit instruments, including letters of credit.
The 2017 Class A-2 Notes and 2019 Notes were each issued in a securitization transaction pursuant to which most of the Company’s domestic and certain of its foreign revenue-generating assets, consisting principally of franchise-related agreements, real estate assets, and intellectual property and license agreements for the use of intellectual property, are held by the Master Issuer and certain other limited-purpose, bankruptcy-remote, wholly-owned indirect subsidiaries of the Company that act as guarantors of the 2017 Class A-2 Notes and 2019 Notes and that have pledged substantially all of their assets to secure the 2017 Class A-2 Notes and 2019 Notes.
The 2017 Class A-2 Notes and 2019 Notes were issued pursuant to a base indenture and related supplemental indentures (collectively, the “Indenture”) under which the Master Issuer may issue multiple series of notes. The legal final maturity date of the 2017 Class A-2 Notes and 2019 Class A-2 Notes is in November 2047 and May 2049, respectively, but it is anticipated that, unless earlier prepaid to the extent permitted under the Indenture, the Series 2017-1 3.629% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-I (the “2017 Class A-2-I Notes”) will be repaid by November 2024, the Series 2017-1 4.030% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-II (the “2017 Class A-2-II Notes” and, together with the 2017 Class A-2-I Notes, the “2017 Class A-2 Notes”) will be repaid by November 2027, the 2019 Class A-2-I Notes will be repaid by February 2024, the 2019 Class A-2-II Notes will be repaid by May 2026, and the 2019 Class A-2-III Notes will be repaid by May 2029 (the “Anticipated Repayment Dates”). Principal amortization payments equal to $31 million per calendar year, payable quarterly, are collectively required to be made on the 2017 Class A-2 and 2019 Class A-2 through the Anticipated Repayment Dates. No principal payments are required if a specified leverage ratio, which is a measure of outstanding debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted for certain items (as specified in the Indenture), is less than or equal to 5.0 to 1.0. As this specified leverage ratio was less than 5.0 to 1.0 as of March 28, 2020, the Company did not make the scheduled principal payment in May 2020. As this specified leverage ratio is greater than 5.0 to 1.0 as of June 27, 2020, the Company intends to make the next scheduled principal payment in August 2020. If the 2017 Class A-2 Notes or the 2019 Class A-2 Notes have not been repaid or refinanced by their respective Anticipated Repayment Dates, a rapid amortization event will occur in which residual net cash flows of the Master Issuer, after making certain required payments, will be applied to the outstanding principal of the 2017 Class A-2 Notes and the 2019 Class A-2 Notes. Various other events, including failure to maintain a minimum ratio of net cash flows to debt service ("DSCR") of 1.20 to 1.0, measured for the four immediately preceding fiscal quarters, may also cause a rapid amortization event. Failure to maintain a minimum DSCR of 1.75 to 1.0 would also cause certain excess cash flows to be segregated in a separate restricted cash account. As of June 27, 2020, we had a DSCR of 3.21 to 1.0.
It is anticipated that the principal and interest on the 2019 Variable Funding Notes will be repaid in full on or prior to August 2024, subject to two additional one-year extensions. Borrowings under the 2019 Variable Funding Notes bear interest at a rate

35


equal to a LIBOR rate plus 1.50%, or the lenders' commercial paper funding rate plus 1.50%. If the 2019 Variable Funding Notes are not repaid prior to August 2024 or prior to the end of the extension period, if applicable, incremental interest will accrue. In addition, the Company is required to pay a 1.50% fee for letters of credit amounts outstanding and a commitment fee on the unused portion of the 2019 Variable Funding Notes which ranges from 0.50% to 1.00% based on utilization. Other events and transactions, such as certain asset sales and receipt of various insurance or indemnification proceeds, may trigger additional mandatory prepayments.
In order to assess our current debt levels, including servicing our long-term debt, and our ability to take on additional borrowings, we monitor a leverage ratio of our long-term debt, net of cash (“Net Debt”), to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”). This leverage ratio differs from the leverage ratios specified in the Indenture. This leverage ratio, and the related Net Debt and Adjusted EBITDA measures used to compute it, are non-GAAP measures, and our use of the terms Net Debt and Adjusted EBITDA may vary from other companies, including those in our industry, due to the potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation and differences due to items subject to interpretation. Net Debt reflects the gross principal amount outstanding under our securitized financing facility, notes payable, and finance lease obligations, less short-term cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash, excluding cash reserved for gift card/certificate programs. Adjusted EBITDA is defined in our securitized financing facility as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and impairment charges, as adjusted for certain items that are summarized in the table below. Net Debt should not be considered as an alternative to debt, total liabilities, or any other obligations derived in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP, as a measure of operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Net Debt, Adjusted EBITDA, and the related leverage ratio have important limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. However, we believe that presenting Net Debt, Adjusted EBITDA, and the related leverage ratio are appropriate to provide additional information to investors to demonstrate our current debt levels and ability to take on additional borrowings.
As of June 27, 2020, we had a Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 5.3 to 1.0. The following is a reconciliation of our Net Debt and Adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding GAAP measures as of and for the twelve months ended June 27, 2020, respectively (in thousands):

Amounts exclude depreciation and share-based compensation of $6.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively, related to U.S. Advertising Funds.
(b)
Amount excludes incentives paid to franchisees, primarily related to the Dunkin' U.S. Blueprint for Growth.
(c)
Amount includes approximately $8.0 million of corporate financial relief and $2.1 million of rent waivers being provided to the Company's franchisees, net of waivers received from landlords, as well as additional general and administrative expenses incurred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
(d)
Represents costs and fees associated with various franchisee-related investments, including investments in the Dunkin' U.S. Blueprint for Growth, bank fees, legal reserves, and other non-cash gains and losses.
In response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has taken a series of actions to preserve financial flexibility and support franchisees during this time of uncertainty. These actions include temporarily extending payment terms for royalties and advertising fees for franchisees in the U.S. and Canada from 12 to 45 days through mid-May, as well as providing payment plan options for these deferred fees, to provide franchisees with more financial flexibility to better support their employees and guests. Additionally, the Company provided extended payment terms and payment plan options to franchisees and licensees in certain international markets. The Company also provided $8.0 million of corporate financial relief to franchisees in the U.S. that were most significantly impacted by the pandemic. In addition, the Company is waiving up to one month of rental payments and allowed franchisees to defer two months of rental payments on the approximately 900 properties leased by the Company to franchisees. While we do not expect these actions to adversely affect our ability to meet our cash needs, we have also implemented plans to preserve our strong balance sheet by reducing operating expenses and preserving cash, including suspension of our share repurchase program. We expect to remain in compliance with all of our debt covenants under the securitization facility.
Based upon our current level of operations and anticipated growth, we believe that our cash on hand and the cash generated from our operations will be adequate to meet our anticipated debt service requirements, capital expenditures, and working capital needs for at least the next twelve months. We believe that we will be able to meet these obligations even if we experience no growth in sales or profits from current levels. There can be no assurance, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or otherwise to enable us to service our indebtedness, including our securitized financing facility, or to make anticipated capital expenditures. Our future operating performance and our ability to service, extend, or refinance the securitized financing facility will be subject to future economic conditions and to financial, business, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 27, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 27, 2020, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
