Domestic System-Wide Comparable Same-Restaurant Sales Performance
First Quarter of 2020
- Despite 10 consecutive weeks of positive comparable same-restaurant sales and 9 consecutive weeks of positive comparable traffic since the beginning of 2020, Applebee’s comparable same-restaurant sales decreased 10.6% for the first quarter of 2020.
- IHOP’s comparable same-restaurant sales decreased 14.7% for the first quarter of 2020.

GAAP net income available to common stockholders was
$21.6 million , or earnings per diluted share of$1.31 , for the first quarter of 2020. This compares to net income available to common stockholders of$30.5 million , or earnings per diluted share of$1.73 , for the first quarter of 2019. The decrease in net income was primarily due to a decline in gross profit. This was partially offset by the continued decline in general and administrative expenses. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to a significant decrease in guest traffic resulting from government measures undertaken to stem the spread of COVID-19. -
Adjusted net income available to common stockholders was
$23.9 million , or adjusted earnings per diluted share of$1.45 , for the first quarter of 2020. This compares to adjusted net income available to common stockholders of$33.7 million , or adjusted earnings per diluted share of$1.90 , for the first quarter of 2019. The decrease in adjusted net income was primarily due to lower gross profit for the reasons described above. These items were partially offset by fewer weighted average diluted shares outstanding and lower general and administrative expenses. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.) -
General and administrative expenses were
$37.6 million for the first quarter of 2020 compared to$42.8 million for the first quarter of 2019. The improvement was mainly due to lower compensation expenses.

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)”, “Adjusted EBITDA” 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 EBITDA is computed for a given period by deducting from net income or loss for such period the effect of any closure and impairment charges, any interest charges, any income tax provision or benefit, any non-cash stock-based compensation, any depreciation and amortization, any gain or loss related to the disposition of assets and other items deemed not reflective of current operations. “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

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)
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. 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.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(in thousands)
(Unaudited)
Reconciliation of the Company's net income to “adjusted EBITDA.” The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income, adjusted for the effect of interest charges, income tax provision or benefit, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation, closure and impairment charges, gain or loss on disposition of assets, other non-income based taxes and other items deemed not reflective of current operations. Management may use certain non-GAAP measures along with the corresponding U. S. GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of the company and to make certain business decisions.

Restaurant Data |

(a) |
“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 |
|
|
(b) |
“System-wide” sales are retail sales at domestic 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 or decrease in franchisees' reported sales will result in a corresponding increase or decrease in our royalty revenue.
