DineEquity, Inc. Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 Results
GLENDALE, Calif., Nov. 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- DineEquity, Inc. (NYSE: DIN), the parent company of Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar® and IHOP® restaurants, today announced financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2017.
"I am excited about the road ahead for DineEquity and our two category-leading brands. We have a strong management team, committed franchisees and talented team members working cohesively to achieve our collective goals of strong performance and sustainable growth," said Stephen P. Joyce, Chief Executive Officer of DineEquity, Inc. "We are committed to driving shareholder value and ensuring the success of our franchisees. I look forward to working with my management team to execute against our strategic priorities during this challenging period. We are focused on developing a robust performance-based culture, driving sustainable positive sales at both brands and returning DineEquity to a growth company. Having just completed our global franchise conferences for Applebee's and IHOP, it is clear our franchise groups are confident about our plan to drive the business forward. The initial progress we have made and the positive same-restaurant sales performance of both brands in October are encouraging. I am very optimistic about realizing the company's full potential."
Third Quarter of Fiscal 2017 Financial Highlights
- GAAP net loss available to common stockholders was $443.2 million, or net loss per diluted share of $24.98 for the third quarter of 2017. This compares to net income available to common stockholders of $23.9 million, or earnings per diluted share of $1.33, for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The net loss was primarily due to non-cash impairment charges totaling $531.6 million related to the write-downs of Applebee's goodwill and other intangible assets, partially offset by a deferred tax benefit of $65.1 million attributable to the other intangible assets charge.
- Adjusted net income available to common stockholders was $16.1 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $0.91, for the third quarter of fiscal 2017. This compares to adjusted net income available to common stockholders of $26.4 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.46, for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The decrease in adjusted net income was mainly due to a decline in gross profit. The decrease in gross profit was due to a 7.7% decline in Applebee's domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales, an increase in bad debt expense, restaurant closures and a reduction in revenue recognized due to the collectability of Applebee's franchisee royalties. (See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.)
- General and administrative expenses were approximately $38.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2017. This compares to $36.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The modest increase was mainly due to higher personnel-related expenses.
First Nine Months of Fiscal 2017 Financial Highlights
- GAAP net loss available to common stockholders was $409.2 million, or net loss per diluted share of $23.09 for the first nine months of fiscal 2017. This compares to net income available to common stockholders of $75.5 million, or earnings per diluted share of $4.15, for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. The net loss was primarily due to non-cash impairment charges in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 totaling $531.6 million related to the write-downs of Applebee's goodwill and other intangible assets as well as lower gross profit, partially offset by a deferred tax benefit of $65.1 million attributable to the other intangible assets charge.
- Adjusted net income available to common stockholders was $60.7 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $3.42, for the first nine months of fiscal 2017. This compares to adjusted net income available to common stockholders of $84.3 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $4.63, for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. The decrease in adjusted net income was mainly due to lower gross profit and an increase in general and administrative expenses. The decrease in gross profit was due to a 7.3% decline in Applebee's domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales, an increase in bad debt expense as well as restaurant closures and a reduction in revenue recognized due to the collectability of Applebee's franchisee royalties. (See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.)
- General and administrative expenses were $125.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 compared to $111.9 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. The increase was primarily due to approximately $9 million of non-recurring cash severance and equity compensation charges incurred in the first quarter of 2017 related to the separation of our previous chief executive officer and higher costs for professional services associated with investments in Applebee's stabilization initiatives.
- Cash flows from operating activities were $31.0 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017 compared to $62.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. The decline was primarily due to a decrease in gross profit from franchise operations and an increase in general and administrative expenses. Adjusted free cash flow was $29.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2017, compared to $66.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2016. (See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.)

- Applebee's domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales declined 7.7% for the third quarter of 2017.
First Nine Months of Fiscal 2017

Financial Performance Guidance for Fiscal 2017
The following projections for fiscal 2017 are based on management's expectations as of November 9, 2017. DineEquity reiterates its financial performance guidance for fiscal 2017 contained in the press release issued on August 10, 2017 and the Form 8-K filed on the same day, except for the revisions noted below.
- Revised expectations for Applebee's domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales performance to range between negative 5.5% and negative 6.5%. This compares to previous expectations of between negative 6.0% and negative 8.0%.
- Reiterates expectations for IHOP's domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales performance to range between negative 1.0% and negative 3.0%.
- Reiterates expectations for Applebee's franchisees to develop between 20 and 30 new restaurants globally, the majority of which are expected to be international openings.
- Reiterates expectations for Applebee's closures to range between approximately 105 and 135 restaurants.
- Reiterates expectations for IHOP franchisees and its area licensee to develop between 80 and 95 restaurants globally, the majority of which are expected to be domestic openings.
- Revised expectations for IHOP closures to range between 25 and 30 restaurants. This compares to previous expectations of between 20 and 25 restaurants.
- Revised expectations for Franchise segment profit to be between $297 million and $303 million. This compares to previous expectations of between $302 million and $314 million. This downward revision is primarily due to additional expected reserves related to the collectability of Applebee's royalties.
- Reiterates expectations for the Rental and Financing segments to generate approximately $38 million in combined profit.
- Reiterates expectations for general and administrative expenses to range between $166 million and $172 million, including non-cash stock-based compensation expense and depreciation of approximately $22 million.
- Reiterates expectations for interest expense to be approximately $62 million. Approximately $3 million is projected to be non-cash interest expense.
- Reiterates expectations for weighted average diluted shares outstanding to be approximately 18 million shares.
- Reiterates expectation for the income tax rate to be approximately 40%.
- Revised expectations for cash flows provided by operating activities to range between $64 million and $74 million. This compares to previous expectations of between $80 million and $90 million. The decline is primarily due to the timing of fourth quarter 2017 marketing spend and projections for lower Franchise segment profit as discussed above.
- Reiterates expectations for capital expenditures to be approximately $14 million.
- Revised expectations for adjusted free cash flow (See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below) to range between $60 million and $70 million. This compares to previous expectations of between $76 million and $86 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes references to the Company's non-GAAP financial measure "adjusted net income available to common stockholders, "adjusted earnings per diluted share (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 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. 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. 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 contracts receivable, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, 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 and, as such, the percentage change in sales at Effective Restaurants is based on non-GAAP sales data. Sales at restaurants that are owned by franchisees and area licensees are not attributable to the Company. 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 franchisees and area licensees as well as those owned by the Company. |
| (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 nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 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. |
| (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. |
