  • Adjusted earnings per share rose to $0.22 per share from $0.17 per share; adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures (see the reconciliation of GAAP to adjusted earnings accompanying this release).

Fiscal 2016 Highlights Compared to Last Year:

  • Revenues increased 5.8% to $518.7 million from $490.3 million.
  • Systemwide domestic same store sales rose 3.9%, including a 2.4% gain at Company shops; constant currency international franchise same store sales declined 3.9%.

President and Chief Executive Officer Tony Thompson commented: “We are pleased with continued growth of the Krispy Kreme brand throughout fiscal 2016. During the year, we increased total revenue by almost 6%, adjusted earnings per share by 14%, operating cash flow by 26% and expanded our worldwide store count by 14% to over 1,100 stores. Systemwide domestic same store sales also rose nearly 4% as we had our seventh consecutive year of positive same store sales at Company stores. We thank our entire team and our franchise partners for their contributions to our ongoing success.”

Thompson continued: “We believe fiscal 2017 will be another year of sustainable growth as we partner with new and existing franchisees to spread the joy of Krispy Kreme throughout the world. As part of these efforts, we are refining our retail store model to deliver better returns while executing on our four key business drivers: accelerating global growth; leveraging technology; enhancing our core menu; and maximizing brand awareness. We remain excited about our brand’s long-term potential and believe we are well positioned to drive earnings and cash flow growth in the future. We also plan to continue returning a significant portion of our excess cash flow to shareholders via on-going share repurchases.”

Share Repurchase Authorization

In recognition of the Company’s continuing ability to generate cash flow in excess of its current business needs, the Board of Directors increased the Company’s share repurchase authorization by $100 million in March 2016 from $155 million to $255 million. With this increase, the Company has current authorization to repurchase an additional $143.4 million worth of shares.

Results for the Quarter Ended January 31, 2016

Consolidated Results

In addition to the results included in the highlights above, direct operating expenses for the fourth quarter increased to $103.6 million from $99.4 million in the comparable period last year, and as a percentage of total revenues increased slightly to 79.5% from 79.3%.

General and administrative expenses were $6.6 million in the fourth quarter compared to $9.2 million in the same period a year ago. General and administrative expenses in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 include a $2.5 million charge for the settlement of amounts due under an employment agreement with the Company’s former chief executive officer.

Impairment charges and lease termination costs totaled $4.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to $0.9 million in the fourth quarter of the prior year. Impairment charges and lease termination costs in the fourth quarter of the current year principally relate to the Company’s decision to close certain shop locations.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company recorded a one-time gain of approximately $810,000 as a result of conveying its membership interest in an equity method franchisee to the majority owner upon receipt of payment for all outstanding indebtedness.

The effective income tax rate was 24.8% in the fourth quarter of the current year compared to 31.4% in the same quarter last year. Income tax expense in the fourth quarter of this year includes credits of $1.7 million reflecting additional tax benefits expected to be realized from the Company’s net operating loss and tax credit carryovers resulting from an increase in management’s estimate of future annual earnings.

Segment Results

Company Stores revenues increased 4.3% to $87.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, driven by an 8.4% increase in on-premises sales as store operating weeks increased 9.4% and same store sales increased 0.2%. Sales within the consumer packaged goods category, which represents just under half of the Company Stores segment revenues, were down slightly compared to the prior year. Company Stores segment operating income decreased from $4.0 million to $2.4 million in the fourth quarter of this year as a result of the Company Stores contribution margin decreasing from 15.7% to 12.5%. The margin decrease was primarily due to increased discounts associated with marketing promotional activities in the fourth quarter of this year combined with favorable self-insurance adjustments recorded in the fourth quarter of the prior year as a result of improved claims experience.

Domestic Franchise revenues increased 24.3% to $4.2 million reflecting higher royalties and initial franchise fees. Total sales by domestic franchisees rose 9.4%, and same store sales at domestic franchise shops increased 2.5%. The Domestic Franchise segment generated operating income of $3.2 million this year compared to $2.1 million in the fourth quarter last year.

International Franchise revenues decreased 3.4% to $7.4 million from $7.6 million in the fourth quarter last year principally due to unfavorable foreign exchange rates which adversely affected royalty revenues and segment operating income by approximately $500,000. Sales by international franchise stores declined 4.0%, largely due to adverse foreign exchange rate impacts. Excluding the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates, international franchise stores sales rose 3.7%. Constant currency same store sales at international franchise stores declined 7.1%, reflecting, among other things, the normal, on-going impact of high shop growth on existing unit sales resulting from the market penetration strategy of our international franchisees. International Franchise segment operating income decreased to $5.4 million compared to $5.6 million in the fourth quarter last year primarily due to the negative impact of foreign exchange rates.

KK Supply Chain revenues (including sales to Company stores) rose 1.4% to $64.2 million and external KK Supply Chain revenues rose 2.8% to $31.5 million. KK Supply Chain generated operating income of $12.2 million compared to $11.4 million in the fourth quarter last year.

Fiscal 2017 Outlook

Management announced its guidance for adjusted earnings per share for fiscal 2017 of $0.87 to $0.91 per share, compared to $0.80 per share in fiscal 2016. On a GAAP basis, the Company projects fiscal 2017 earnings per share of $0.54 to $0.58 per share compared to $0.48 per share in fiscal 2016.

The Company’s above guidance for fiscal 2017 is based on the following expectations:

  • approximately 30 new domestic shops including 10 Company shops;
  • approximately 120 to 140 net new international franchise shops;
  • capital expenditures of approximately $30 million;
  • continued growth in systemwide domestic same store sales;
  • relatively flat agricultural commodity and lower fuel costs compared to fiscal 2016, largely offset by increased store level labor and incentive costs;
  • continued negative effects of a stronger U.S. dollar; and
  • effective tax rate of 40%.

KRISPY KREME DOUGHNUTS, INC.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

(Unaudited)

Management evaluates the Company’s results of operations using, among other measures, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, which reflect the provision for income taxes only to the extent such taxes are currently payable in cash. In addition, management excludes from adjusted net income charges and credits that are unusual and infrequently occurring. Management believes adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are useful performance measures because they more closely measure the cash flows generated by the Company’s operations and the trends in those cash flows than do GAAP net income and earnings per share, and because they exclude the effects of transactions that are not indicative of the Company’s ongoing results of operations. Adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures.

As of January 31, 2016, the Company had net deferred income tax assets of approximately $75 million, of which approximately $26 million related to federal and state net operating loss carryovers. The Company’s federal net operating loss carryovers totaled approximately $124 million.

The Company has reported cumulative pretax income of over $220 million since the beginning of fiscal 2010, and the Company also has generated significant taxable income during this period. However, because of the Company’s utilization of its federal and state net operating loss carryovers and other deferred tax assets, the Company’s cash payments for income taxes have been relatively insignificant during this period. As a result, the provision for income tax expense has substantially exceeded cash payments for income taxes. Until such time as the Company’s net operating loss carryovers are exhausted or expire, GAAP income tax expense is expected to continue to substantially exceed the amount of cash income taxes payable by the Company.

The Company recorded impairment charges and lease termination costs of approximately $4.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. The majority of these charges relate to stores closed in fiscal 2016 and stores expected to be closed in early fiscal 2017. Impairment charges and lease termination costs of this magnitude and nature are excluded from adjusted net income because including them is not representative of the ongoing performance of the Company’s remaining assets.

The Company recorded a pretax charge of approximately $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 for the settlement of amounts due under an employment agreement with the Company’s former chief executive officer. That officer transitioned from the Company’s executive chairman role to the non-employee role of non-executive chairman of the Board of Directors in late January 2015.

The following non-GAAP financial information and related reconciliation of adjusted net income to GAAP net income are provided to assist the reader in understanding the effects of the above facts and transactions on the Company’s results of operations. In addition, the non-GAAP financial information is intended to illustrate the material difference between the Company’s income tax expense and income taxes currently payable, as well as, reflect the ongoing performance of the business. These non-GAAP performance measures are consistent with other measurements made by management in the operation of the business which do not consider certain impairment charges and lease termination costs and income taxes except to the extent to which those taxes currently are payable, for example, in capital allocation decisions and incentive compensation measurements that are made on a pretax basis.

(1) Systemwide sales, a non-GAAP financial measure, include sales by both Company and franchise Krispy Kreme stores but exclude sales among Company and franchise stores. The Company believes systemwide sales data are useful in assessing consumer demand for the Company’s products, the overall success of the Krispy Kreme brand and, ultimately, the performance of the Company. All of the Company’s royalty revenues are computed as percentages of sales made by the Company’s domestic and international franchisees, and substantially all of KK Supply Chain’s external sales of doughnut mixes and other ingredients ultimately are determined by demand for the Company’s products at franchise stores. Accordingly, sales by the Company’s franchisees have a direct effect on the Company’s royalty and KK Supply Chain revenues, and therefore on the Company’s profitability. The Company’s consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere herein include sales by Company stores, sales to franchisees by the KK Supply Chain segment, and royalties and fees received from franchise stores based on their sales, but exclude sales by franchise stores to their customers.

(2) Computed on a pro forma basis assuming the average rate of exchange between the U.S. dollar and each of the foreign currencies in which the Company’s international franchisees conduct business had been the same in the comparable prior year period.

(3) Company Stores contribution represents Company Stores revenues less costs of food, beverage and packaging; labor and benefit costs; vehicle costs; occupancy and other store related costs and excludes depreciation and amortization expense; marketing expenses and segment general and administration expenses. Company Stores contribution is a non-GAAP financial measure and the Company believes this is a useful measure to assess and evaluate the performance of its Company Stores segment.

(4) The change in “same store sales” represents the aggregate retail sales (excluding fundraising sales) during the current year period for all stores which had been open for 18 or more months during the current year period divided by the aggregate retail sales of such stores for the comparable weeks in the preceding year period. Once a store has been open for at least 18 consecutive months, its sales are included in the computation of same stores sales for all subsequent periods. In the event a store is closed temporarily (for example, for remodeling) and has no sales during one or more weeks, such store’s sales for the comparable weeks during the earlier or subsequent period are excluded from the same store sales computation.

(5) Company Stores consumer packaged goods – wholesale sales “average weekly number of doors” represents the average number of customer locations to which product deliveries to grocers/mass merchants and convenience stores are made during a week by Company Stores and “average weekly sales per door” represents the average weekly sales to each such location by Company Stores.
