GLENDALE, Calif., March 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- DineEquity, Inc. (NYSE: DIN), the parent company of Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar® and IHOP® restaurants, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2016.
"While this has been a challenging period for the industry, particularly for casual dining and Applebee's, I have confidence in our brands, our franchisees and our team members," said Richard J. Dahl, Chairman and interim Chief Executive Officer of DineEquity, Inc.
Mr. Dahl added, "Working with a world-class management consulting firm to conduct a comprehensive diagnostic on Applebee's, we are moving forward with a plan to significantly invest in the growth of our brands for the long-term benefit of our franchisees and shareholders. We have identified key strategic initiatives, which we believe will drive meaningful improvements in sales and traffic over time. To drive the business forward, we know that there is more that needs to be done. I am confident in our roadmap."
Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2016 Financial Highlights
- GAAP net income available to common stockholders was $21.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2016, or earnings per diluted share of $1.18. This compares to net income available to common stockholders of $25.0 million, or earnings per diluted share of $1.35, for the fourth quarter of 2015. GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of 2016 declined compared to the same period of 2015 mainly due to a decrease in gross profit, partially offset by improvement in general and administrative expenses primarily due to lower incentive compensation.
- Adjusted net income available to common stockholders was $24.5 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.37, for the fourth quarter of 2016. This compares to $29.5 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.59, for the same period of 2015. The decrease in adjusted net income was mainly due to lower gross profit. The decrease was partially offset by improvement in general and administrative expenses primarily due to lower incentive compensation. (See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.)
- General and administrative expenses were $37.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2016. This compares to approximately $45.0 million for the same period of 2015. The improvement was mainly due to lower incentive compensation and a decline in costs associated with the timing of franchise conferences.
Fiscal 2016 Financial Highlights
- GAAP net income available to common stockholders was $96.6 million for fiscal 2016, or earnings per diluted share of $5.33. This compares to net income available to common stockholders of $103.5 million, or earnings per diluted share of $5.52, for fiscal 2015. The decrease in GAAP net income was primarily due to lower gross profit, which included an incremental $9.4 million as a result of a 53rd week in fiscal 2015. The decrease was partially offset by lower income tax expense due to lower state tax rates applied to our deferred tax balances as the result of our restaurant support center consolidation as well as an improvement in general and administrative expenses mainly due to lower incentive compensation.
- Adjusted net income available to common stockholders was $108.9 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $6.01, for fiscal 2016. This compares to $116.1 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $6.19, for fiscal 2015. The decline in adjusted earnings per diluted share was mainly due to lower gross profit, which included an incremental $9.4 million as a result of a 53rd week in fiscal 2015. This was partially offset by fewer weighted average diluted shares outstanding, a decline in general and administrative expenses and a lower income tax rate. (See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.)
- General and administrative expenses were $148.9 million for fiscal 2016. This compares to $155.4 million for fiscal 2015. The improvement was primarily due to lower incentive compensation.
- In fiscal 2016, cash flows from operating activities were $118.1 million compared to $135.5 million in fiscal 2015. Adjusted free cash flow was $122.5 million for full-year fiscal 2016, compared to $142.3 million for full-year fiscal 2015. (See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.)
Same-Restaurant Sales Performance
Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2016
- IHOP's domestic system-wide comparable same restaurant sales declined 2.1% for the fourth quarter of 2016.
- Applebee's domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales declined 7.2% for the fourth quarter of 2016.
Fiscal 2016
- IHOP's domestic system-wide comparable same restaurant sales decreased 0.1% for fiscal 2016.
- Applebee's domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales decreased 5.0% for fiscal 2016.
Financial Performance Guidance for Fiscal 2017
The following projections for fiscal 2017 are based on management's expectations as of March 1, 2017.
- Applebee's domestic system-wide same-restaurant sales performance is expected to range between negative 4.0% and negative 8.0%.
- IHOP's domestic system-wide same-restaurant sales performance is expected to range between 0.0% and positive 3.0%.
- Applebee's franchisees are projected to develop between 20 and 30 new restaurants globally, the majority of which are expected to be international openings. As part of a detailed system-wide analysis to optimize the health of the franchisee system, we anticipate the closure of approximately 40 to 60 restaurants. The expected closures will be based on several criteria, including meeting our brand and image standards and operational results.
- IHOP franchisees and its area licensee are projected to develop between 75 and 90 restaurants globally, the majority of which are expected to be domestic openings. We expect the closure of approximately 18 restaurants as part of normal attrition.
- Franchise segment profit is expected to be between $323 million and $338 million.
- Rental and Financing segments are expected to generate roughly $38 million in combined profit.
- General and administrative expenses are expected to range between $170 million and $177 million, including non-cash stock-based compensation expense and depreciation of approximately $22 million. The anticipated increase in general and administrative expenses compared to fiscal 2016 is primarily due to expectations for higher personnel-related and incentive compensation costs as well as investments in Applebee's stabilization initiatives. These initiatives will total approximately $10 million in fiscal 2017 and we expect that a substantial amount will not recur. The range for expected general and administrative expenses is inclusive of approximately $9 million of non-recurring cash severance and equity compensation charges to be incurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.
- Interest expense is expected to be approximately $62 million. Approximately $3 million is projected to be non-cash interest expense.
- Weighted average diluted shares outstanding are expected to be approximately 18 million shares.
- The income tax rate is expected to be approximately 38%.
- Cash flow provided by operating activities is expected to range between $98 million and $108 million. The expected decline compared to fiscal 2016 is primarily due to projections for lower net income due to higher general and administrative expenses as well as expectations for domestic system-wide comparable same restaurant sales.
- Capital expenditures are projected to be roughly $12 million.
- Adjusted free cash flow (See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below) is projected to range between $96 million and $106 million. The expected decline in adjusted free cash flow compared to fiscal 2016 is primarily due to projections for lower net income due to higher general and administrative expenses as well as expectations for domestic system-wide comparable same restaurant sales.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release includes references to the Company's non-GAAP financial measure "adjusted net income available to common stockholders (Adjusted EPS)" and "Adjusted free cash flow." "Adjusted EPS" is computed for a given period by deducting from net income or loss available to common stockholders for such period the effect of any closure and impairment charges, any gain or loss related to debt extinguishment, any intangible asset amortization, any non-cash interest expense, any gain or loss related to the disposition of assets, and other items deemed not reflective of current operations. This is presented on an aggregate basis and a per share (diluted) basis. "Adjusted free cash flow" for a given period is defined as cash provided by operating activities, plus receipts from notes and equipment contracts receivable, less capital expenditures. Management uses adjusted free cash flow in its periodic assessments of, among other things, the amount of cash dividends per share of common stock and repurchases of common stock and we believe it is important for investors to have the same measure used by management for that purpose. Adjusted free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes. Management may use certain of these non-GAAP financial measures along with the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of the business and to make certain business decisions. Additionally, adjusted EPS is one of the metrics used in determining payouts under the Company's annual cash incentive plan. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional meaningful information that should be considered when assessing the business and the Company's performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace. Adjusted EPS and adjusted free cash flow are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

| Reconciliation of the Company's cash provided by operating activities to "adjusted free cash flow" (cash provided by operating activities, plus receipts from notes and equipment contract receivables, less additions to property and equipment). Management uses this liquidity measure in its periodic assessments of, among other things, the amount of cash dividends per share of common stock and repurchases of common stock and we believe it is important for investors to have the same measure used by management for that purpose. Adjusted free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes. |

| Restaurant Data |
||||||||||||||||
| The following table sets forth, for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the number of "Effective Restaurants" in the Applebee's and IHOP systems and information regarding the percentage change in sales at those restaurants compared to the same periods in the prior year. Sales at restaurants that are owned by franchisees and area licensees are not attributable to the Company and, as such, the percentage changes in sales presented below are based on non-GAAP sales data. However, we believe that presentation of this information is useful in analyzing our revenues because franchisees and area licensees pay us royalties and advertising fees that are generally based on a percentage of their sales, and, where applicable, rental payments under leases that partially may be based on a percentage of their sales. Management also uses this information to make decisions about future plans for the development of additional restaurants as well as evaluation of current operations. |

"Effective Restaurants" are the weighted average number of restaurants open in a given fiscal period, adjusted to account for restaurants open for only a portion of the period. Information is presented for all Effective Restaurants in the Applebee's and IHOP systems, which includes restaurants owned by the Company as well as those owned by franchisees and area licensees. |
| (b) |
"System-wide" sales are retail sales at Applebee's restaurants operated by franchisees and IHOP restaurants operated by franchisees and area licensees, as reported to the Company, in addition to retail sales at company-operated restaurants. Sales at restaurants that are owned by franchisees and area licensees are not attributable to the Company. An increase in franchisees' reported sales will result in a corresponding increase in our royalty revenue, while a decrease in franchisees' reported sales will result in a corresponding decrease in our royalty revenue. Unaudited reported sales for Applebee's domestic franchise restaurants, IHOP franchise restaurants and IHOP area license restaurants for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were as follows: |

"Sales percentage change" reflects, for each category of restaurants, the percentage change in sales in any given fiscal period compared to the prior fiscal period for all restaurants in that category. The sales percentage changes for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, were impacted by a 14th and 53rd calender week in the respective fiscal 2015 periods. |
| (d) |
"Domestic same-restaurant sales percentage change" reflects the percentage change in sales, in any given fiscal period, compared to the same weeks in the prior year for domestic restaurants that have been operated throughout both fiscal periods that are being compared and have been open for at least 18 months. Because of new unit openings and restaurant closures, the domestic restaurants open throughout both fiscal periods being compared may be different from period to period. Same-restaurant sales percentage change does not include data on IHOP area license restaurants located in Florida. |
| (e) |
The 2015 sales percentage change for Applebee's franchise restaurants was impacted by the refranchising of 23 company-operated restaurants during 2015. |
