IHOP CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997, have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). These financial statements have not
been audited by independent public accountants but include all adjustments,
consisting of normal, recurring accruals, which in the opinion of management
of IHOP Corp. and Subsidiaries ("IHOP" or the "Company") are necessary for a
fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations
for the periods presented. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 1997, has been derived from audited financial statements, but
does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results of operations
for the six months ended June 30, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 1998.
2. In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes a new model for
accounting for derivatives and hedging activities and supersedes and amends
a number of existing standards. Upon implementation, all derivatives are
required to be recognized on the balance sheet as either assets or
liabilities and measured at fair value. SFAS No. 133 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 1999, but earlier application is permitted.
Management believes that adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not have any material
impact on the company's financial position or results of operations.

(a) The Company reports restaurants in Canada as franchise restaurants although
the eleven restaurants are operated under an area license agreement.
The following discussion and analysis provides information management believes
is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's consolidated
results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1997. Certain forward-looking statements are contained in this
quarterly report. They use such words as "may," "will," "expect," "believe,"
"plan," or other similar terminology. These statements involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results to be
materially different than those expressed or implied in such statements. These
factors include, but are not limited to: availability of suitable locations and
terms of the sites designated for development; legislation and government
regulation including the ability to obtain satisfactory regulatory approvals;
conditions beyond the Company's control such as weather or natural disasters;
availability and cost of materials and labor; cost and availability of capital;
competition; continuing acceptance of the International House of Pancakes brand
and concept by guests and franchisees; the Company's overall marketing,
operational and financial performance; economic and political conditions;
adoption of new, or changes in, accounting policies and practices; and other
factors discussed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking information is provided by the Company
pursuant to the safe harbor established under the Private
7
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and should be evaluated in the context
of these factors. In addition, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to
update these forward-looking statements.
IHOP's quarterly results are subject to seasonal fluctuation with sales
generally higher in the warmer months and during holiday periods. IHOP's
results of operations are impacted by the timing of additions of new
restaurants, by the timing of the franchising of those restaurants, and by the
number of restaurants in the Company's inventory of restaurants that are
available for refranchising. Revenues from sales of franchises and equipment
and their associated costs of sales are affected by the mix and number of
restaurants franchised, as follows: (i) franchise rights with respect to
restaurants newly developed by IHOP normally sell for a franchise fee of
$200,000 to $350,000, and such restaurants have little if any franchise cost of
sales and have equipment in excess of $300,000 that is usually sold at a price
that includes little or no profit margin; (ii) franchise rights with respect to
restaurants developed by franchisees normally sell for a franchise fee of
$50,000, have minor associated franchise cost of sales and do not include an
equipment sale; and (iii) previously reacquired franchises normally sell for a
franchise fee of $100,000 to $300,000, include an equipment sale, and may have
substantial costs of sales associated with both the franchise and the equipment.
As a consequence of the foregoing and other factors, the results of operations
for the six months ended June 30, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 1998.
System-wide retail sales grew 13.2% for the second quarter and 13.8% for the
first six months of 1998 over system-wide retail sales for the comparable 1997
periods. This was due to growth in the number of effective restaurants of 7.6%
and 7.5%, respectively, and increases in average per unit revenues of 5.4% and
5.9%, respectively, over the comparable prior year periods. System-wide
comparable average sales per restaurant (exclusive of area license restaurants
in Florida and Japan) grew 2.5% for the second quarter and 3.4% for the first
six months of 1998 over those in the comparable 1997 periods. Management
continues to pursue growth in sales through the Company's restaurant development
program, its advertising and marketing efforts, improvements in customer service
and operations, and the Company's remodeling program.
Franchise operations revenues for the second quarter and first six months of
1998 grew 13.1% and 13.7%, respectively, over revenues for the comparable 1997
periods. This was primarily due to increases in average per unit revenues of
7.1% and 7.8% coupled with growth in the number of effective franchised units of
6.7% and 6.6% for the second quarter and the first six months, respectively,
over the prior year periods. Franchise operations costs and expenses for the
second quarter and first six months of 1998 increased 11.3% and 12.6%,
respectively, over costs and expenses for the comparable 1997 periods. As a
result of franchise revenues increasing in excess of franchise expenses, the
margin from franchise operations improved to 56.3% and 56.1% in the second
quarter and first six months of 1998, respectively, versus 55.6% and 55.7% in
the comparable 1997 periods. The margin improved primarily because of increased
interest income associated with IHOP's financing of sales of franchises and
equipment to its franchisees.
Company-operated restaurant revenues for the second quarter and first six months
of 1998 grew 24.0% and 24.9%, respectively, over revenues for the comparable
1997 periods. This was primarily due to increases in the number of effective
Company-operated restaurants of 20.6% and 21.0%, respectively, and in the
revenues per effective Company-operated restaurant of 2.6% and 3.2%,
respectively, in the second quarter and first six months of 1998 over the
comparable 1997 periods. Company-operated restaurant costs and expenses for the
second quarter and first six months of 1998 increased 26.5% and 24.5%,
respectively, over costs and expenses for the comparable 1997 periods. Margin
at Company-operated restaurants was 6.2% in the second quarter and 6.6% for the
first six months of 1998 versus 8.1% for the second quarter and 6.3% in the
first six months of 1997. The change in margin for the second quarter was
primarily due to increases in salaries and wages as a percentage of revenues.
Other revenues for the second quarter and first six months of 1998 grew 78.3%
and 61.6%, respectively, over other revenues for the comparable 1997 periods.
The primary reasons for the increases were (a) growth in the sales of franchises
and equipment to $12,029,000 in the second
8
quarter and to $16,076,000 in the first six months from $6,108,000 and
$9,032,000 in the respective prior year periods, and (b) growth in interest
income from direct financing leases. The Company franchised 24 and 33
restaurants in the second quarter and first six months of 1998, respectively,
versus 13 and 19 restaurants in the comparable 1997 periods. Other costs and
expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 1998 increased 118.4%
and 95.3%, respectively, over the comparable 1997 periods. The increases were
primarily due to higher franchise and equipment cost of sales of $6,828,000 in
the second quarter and $9,167,000 in the first six months of 1998 versus
$3,228,000 and $4,883,000 in the comparable 1997 periods.
Field, corporate and administrative expenses for the second quarter and first
six months of 1998 increased 15.7% and 13.1%, respectively, over the comparable
1997 periods. The increases were principally due to (a) increases in employee
related compensation and expenses and (b) travel and conference costs associated
with IHOP's national franchisee convention which took place in the second
quarter of 1998. Field, corporate and administrative expenses were 3.4% and
3.3% of system-wide sales in the second quarter and first six months of 1998,
respectively, the same percentages as in the comparable 1997 periods.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 14.2% and 12.1% in the second
quarter and first six months of 1998, respectively, over the comparable 1997
periods primarily reflecting the addition of new, larger restaurants.
Interest expense increased 17.4% and 17.3% in the second quarter and first six
months of 1998, respectively, over the comparable 1997 periods primarily due to
interest associated with increased capital lease obligations.
Provision for income taxes was 39.0% of income before income taxes in the second
quarter and first six months of both 1998 and 1997.
The balance of long-term receivables at June 30, 1998, increased over that of
the prior year end primarily due to IHOP's financing activities associated with
the sale of franchises and equipment and the leasing of restaurants to its
franchisees.
Balances of property and equipment, net and capital lease obligations and other
at June 30, 1998, increased over those of the prior year end primarily due to
new restaurant development and the Company's capital lease obligations
associated with that development.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Company invests available funds into its business through the development of
additional restaurants and the remodeling of older, Company-operated
restaurants.
In 1998, IHOP and its franchisees and area licensees plan to develop and open
approximately 70 to 85 restaurants. Included in that number are the development
of 50 to 60 new restaurants by the Company and the development of 20 to 25
restaurants by IHOP franchisees and area licensees. Capital expenditure
projections for 1998, which includes IHOP's investment in the development of new
restaurants, are approximately $60 to $75 million. In November 1998, the third
annual installment of $4.6 million in principal becomes due on the Company's
senior notes due 2002. The Company expects that funds from operations, sale and
leaseback arrangements (estimated to be about $35 million) and its revolving
line of credit will be sufficient to cover its operating requirements, its
budgeted capital expenditures and its principal repayment on its senior notes in
1998. At June 30, 1998, $13.7 million was available to be borrowed under the
Company's unsecured bank revolving credit agreement. In June 1998, the
Company's unsecured bank revolving credit agreement was extended one year,
through June 30, 2001, under similar terms and conditions, although certain
borrowings would be subject to more favorable interest rates.

preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
power, or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any right, power, privilege or

facsimile transmitted document purportedly bearing the signature of the Company
shall bind the Company with the same force and effect as the delivery of a hard

original of such document shall not diminish the binding effect of receipt of
the facsimile transmitted executed original of such document which hard copy
page was not received by the Bank.
