Financial Results
Financial results for the 13 and 26 weeks ended June 28, 2022 and June 29, 2021 were as follows:
| Second Quarter | Year to Date | ||||||||||||||||||
| ($000's) | |||||||||||||||||||
| 2022 | 2021 | % change | 2022 | 2021 | % change | ||||||||||||||
| Total revenue | $ | 1,024,606 | $ | 898,788 | 14.0 | % | $ | 2,012,092 | $ | 1,699,417 | 18.4 | % | |||||||
| Income from operations | 85,918 | 89,728 | (4.2 | %) | 176,056 | 170,655 | 3.2 | % | |||||||||||
| Net income | 72,419 | 75,480 | (4.1 | %) | 147,621 | 139,630 | 5.7 | % | |||||||||||
| Diluted earnings per share | $ | 1.07 | $ | 1.08 | (0.8 | %) | $ | 2.15 | $ | 1.99 | 8.1 | % | |||||||
Results for the second quarter, as compared to the prior year as applicable, included the following:
- Comparable restaurant sales increased 7.6% at company restaurants and increased 6.2% at domestic franchise restaurants;
- Average weekly sales at company restaurants were $135,552 of which 13.1% were to-go sales as compared to average weekly sales of $126,442 of which 16.9% were to-go sales in the prior year;
- Restaurant margin, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, decreased 116 basis points to 16.6%. Restaurant margin was negatively impacted by commodity inflation of 11.8%, with higher costs across the basket, partially offset by the benefit of an increase in comparable restaurant sales. Restaurant margin dollars increased 6.6% to $168.7 million from $158.2 million in the prior year;
- Diluted earnings per share decreased 0.8% to $1.07 from $1.08 in the prior year as higher restaurant margin dollars were more than offset by increased general and administrative expenses. This was driven by the timing of our annual managing partner conference which occurred in the third quarter in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share also benefitted from increased share repurchases;
- Five company restaurants and one international franchise restaurant were opened;
- The Company repurchased 1,673,387 shares of common stock for $128.2 million; and,
- The Company ended the quarter with $180.4 million of cash on hand and debt of $75.0 million.
Results for the year-to-date period, as compared to the prior year as applicable, included the following:
- Comparable restaurant sales increased 11.7% at company restaurants and increased 11.8% at domestic franchise restaurants;
- Average weekly sales at company restaurants were $133,917 of which 13.9% were to-go sales as compared to average weekly sales of $120,360 of which 19.5% were to-go sales in the prior year;
- Restaurant margin, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, decreased 162 basis points to 16.5%. Restaurant margin was negatively impacted by commodity inflation of 14.4%, with higher costs across the basket, partially offset by the benefit of an increase in comparable restaurant sales. Restaurant margin dollars increased 7.9% to $329.9 million from $305.8 million in the prior year;
- Diluted earnings per share increased to $2.15 from $1.99 in the prior year as higher restaurant margin dollars were partially offset by increased general and administrative expenses driven by the timing of our annual managing partner conference. Diluted earnings per share also benefitted from increased share repurchases;
- Eight company restaurants and three international franchise restaurants were opened; and,
- The Company repurchased 2,734,005 shares of common stock for $212.9 million.
Jerry Morgan, Chief Executive Officer of Texas Roadhouse, Inc. commented, “Thanks to the hard work of our operators, we continue to see solid revenue growth including strong sales volumes at our new restaurants. In the second half of the year, we will remain focused on balancing the value that we provide to our guests with the significance of any menu pricing actions to help offset rising costs.”
Morgan continued, “On the development front, we are pleased with how our current year pipeline is progressing. As of today, we have opened 10 new Texas Roadhouse and Bubba’s 33 restaurants and have another 15 under construction. We also expect our franchise partners could open as many as seven Texas Roadhouse restaurants this year. Additionally, we took advantage of market conditions to again repurchase a significant number of shares this quarter. We are confident that our development pipeline, sales performance, and solid balance sheet have us well positioned to continue providing strong shareholder value.”
Franchise Acquisitions
In the first half of 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of eight franchise restaurants for an aggregate purchase price of $33.1 million.
2022 Outlook
Comparable restaurant sales at company restaurants for the first four weeks of the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 3.9% compared to the prior year.
Management reiterated the following expectations for 2022:
- Positive comparable restaurant sales growth;
- Approximately 25 Texas Roadhouse and Bubba's 33 company restaurant openings; and,
- Total capital expenditures of approximately $230 million including as many as three relocations.
Management updated the following expectations for 2022:
- Store week growth of approximately 6%, including the impact of the eight franchise locations acquired;
- Commodity cost inflation of approximately 12%;
- Wage and other labor inflation of approximately 8%; and,
- An effective income tax rate of approximately 14% excluding the impact of any legislative changes enacted.
Non-GAAP Measures
The Company prepares the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Within the press release, the Company makes reference to restaurant margin (in dollars and as a percentage of restaurant and other sales). Restaurant margin represents restaurant and other sales less restaurant-level operating costs, including food and beverage costs, labor, rent and other operating costs. Restaurant margin should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative, to income from operations. This non-GAAP measure is not indicative of overall company performance and profitability in that this measure does not accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders due to the nature of the costs excluded. Restaurant margin is widely regarded as a useful metric by which to evaluate restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance. In calculating restaurant margin, the Company excludes certain non-restaurant-level costs that support operations, including pre-opening and general and administrative expenses, but do not have a direct impact on restaurant-level operational efficiency and performance. The Company also excludes depreciation and amortization expense, substantially all of which relates to restaurant-level assets, as it represents a non-cash charge for the investment in restaurants. The Company also excludes impairment and closure expense as it believes this provides a clearer perspective of ongoing operating performance and a more useful comparison to prior period results. Restaurant margin as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in the industry. A reconciliation of income from operations to restaurant margin is included in the accompanying financial tables.
