DineEquity, Inc. Announces Solid Second Quarter 2010 Financial Results
GLENDALE, CA, Jul 29, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
DineEquity, Inc. (NYSE: DIN), the parent company of Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar and IHOP Restaurants, today announced financial results for the second quarter 2010. DineEquity's financial performance for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010 included the following highlights:
-- For the quarter, IHOP's domestic system-wide same-restaurant sales
decreased 1.0% and Applebee's domestic system-wide same-restaurant
sales decreased 1.6% compared to the same periods in 2009, which
represented Applebee's third consecutive quarter of improvement.
Year-to-date, IHOP's domestic system-wide same-restaurant sales
decreased 0.7% and Applebee's domestic system-wide same-restaurant
sales decreased 2.2%.
-- Securitized debt was reduced by $25.8 million for the second
quarter 2010 and by $80.7 million in the first six months of 2010
primarily due to the use of free cash flow for ongoing debt
retirement efforts.
-- Restaurant operating margins at Applebee's company-operated
restaurants improved 10 basis points to 14.1% for the second
quarter 2010 compared to 14.0% for the same quarter of 2009 as
the Company continued to sustain the restaurant profitability
improvements achieved over the past two years.
-- Net income available to common stockholders was $7.4 million, or
$0.42 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2010 compared to net
income of $18.8 million, or $1.09 per diluted share, for the same
quarter in 2009. For the first six months of 2010, net income available
to common stockholders was $20.3 million, or $1.16 per diluted share,
compared to net income of $49.4 million, or $2.87 per diluted share,
for the same period in 2009. These decreases were primarily due to
fewer gains in 2010 with respect to debt repurchases and asset sales
related to Applebee's company-operated restaurants.
-- Adjusted net income available to common stockholders (see "Non-GAAP
Financial Measures" below) was $15.7 million, or $0.90 per diluted
share, for the second quarter 2010 compared to $20.1 million, or
$1.16 per diluted share, for the same quarter in 2009. For the first
six months of 2010, adjusted net income available to common stockholders
was $34.4 million, or $1.97 per diluted share, compared to $39.8
million, or $2.32 per diluted share, for the same period in 2009.
These decreases were primarily due to lower operating results, a higher
income tax rate and increased preferred dividend payments, which were
partially offset by decreased interest expense.
-- Consolidated G&A expenses increased 8.9% to $37.0 million for the
second quarter 2010 compared to the same quarter in 2009 primarily
due to higher expenses for salaries and incentive compensation plans.
For the first six months of 2010, G&A decreased 4.9% to $77.2 million
compared to the same period in 2009 primarily due to one-time costs
of $6.3 million incurred in February 2009 related to the
establishment of a purchasing co-operative.
-- For the first six months of 2010, cash flows from operating activities
were $50.3 million, consolidated capital expenditures were $6.9
million, and free cash flow (see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below)
was $41.0 million.
"We are pleased with our second quarter 2010. Same-restaurant sales results at both brands were encouraging, with Applebee's experiencing a third sequential quarter of improvement as IHOP's performance continued to be strong relative to the family dining category. Our business' significant free cash flow generation abilities enabled the retirement of more than $80 million of securitized debt year-to-date. And, we recently announced the sale of 63 company-operated Applebee's restaurants that will result in a $105 million financial benefit to the Company," said Julia A. Stewart, DineEquity's chairman and chief executive officer. "Looking ahead, we remain focused on executing our revitalizing plans for Applebee's and ensuring that IHOP creates an insurmountable lead in family dining. Our plan includes marketing, menu, operational and remodel initiatives that will differentiate the Applebee's and IHOP brands and position DineEquity for a solid financial performance in the second half of 2010."
Same-Restaurant Sales Performance
IHOP's domestic system-wide same-restaurant sales decreased 1.0% for the second quarter 2010 compared to the same quarter in 2009. Same-restaurant sales reflect a higher average guest check and declines in guest traffic. This reflected timing impacts related to the Easter and Fourth of July holidays which negatively impacted results by 40 basis points. IHOP's marketing efforts during the quarter included Loaded Country Potatoes and Pancake Stackers limited-time offers, and its Kids Eat Free dinner promotion, among other activities.
Applebee's domestic system-wide same-restaurant sales decreased 1.6% for the second quarter 2010, which reflected Applebee's third quarter of sequential improvements. Domestic franchise same-restaurant sales decreased 1.3% and company-operated Applebee's same-restaurant sales decreased 2.6% for the second quarter 2010 compared to the same quarter in 2009. Results at Company restaurants reflected declines in guest traffic and a higher average guest check, including a 1.6% increase in effective pricing, as well as timing impacts related to the Easter holiday which positively impacted results by 40 basis points. Applebee's marketing efforts during the quarter included the promotion of its Great Tasting and Under 550 Calories and Realburgers Across America menu offerings, as well as the introduction of Applebee's new Sizzling Skillet Entrees, among other activities.
Applebee's Restaurant Operating Margins
Applebee's company-operated restaurant operating margin was 14.1% in the second quarter 2010 compared to 14.0% for the second quarter 2009. The 10 basis point improvement was primarily due to favorable commodity costs partially offset by increased marketing programs to drive guest traffic.
For the first six months of 2010, Applebee's company-operated restaurant operating margin was 14.4% compared to 15.2% for the same period in 2009. The 80 basis point decline was primarily due to increased marketing programs to drive guest traffic and higher facility related costs partially offset by favorable commodity costs and continued improvements in labor management.
Debt Management
Securitized debt was reduced by $25.8 million during the second quarter 2010 and by $80.7 million year-to-date as a result of open market purchases and scheduled payments on the Company's subordinated notes. DineEquity has reduced its total outstanding debt levels by $405.5 million, or 16.4%, since the acquisition of Applebee's in November 2007.
As of the end of the second quarter 2010, DineEquity remained comfortably in compliance with the debt covenants set forth in the Company's securitized debt agreements. The Company's consolidated leverage ratio was 5.96x compared to a required threshold of 7.0x. Debt service coverage ratios (DSCR) were 3.48x for IHOP's securitized debt on a three-month unadjusted basis and 3.70x for the Applebee's securitized debt on a three-month adjusted basis, both compared to a minimum required threshold of 1.85x. Applebee's 12-month adjusted DSCR was 3.33x, compared to a minimum required threshold of 2.25x.
DineEquity has provided supplemental information to this news release regarding its compliance with its debt covenants, which may be accessed by visiting the Calls & Presentations section of DineEquity's Investor Relations Web site at http://investors.dineequity.com and referring to supporting materials for the Company's second quarter 2010 webcast.
Sale of 63 Company-Operated Applebee's
On July 23, 2010, DineEquity announced that it had entered into an asset purchase agreement with Apple American Group LLC for the sale of 63 company-operated Applebee's restaurants located in Minnesota and parts of Wisconsin. This transaction is accretive to the Company's consolidated leverage ratio as defined by its debt covenants and furthers its strategic objective of transitioning Applebee's into a more highly franchised restaurant system over time. Scheduled to close in the fourth quarter 2010, the transaction is expected to deliver $105 million of financial benefit to the Company including: 1) the reduction of securitized debt by $28 million on an after-tax basis, 2) the reduction of sale-leaseback related financing obligations by $46 million, and 3) the removal of $31 million of operating lease obligations for debt covenant calculation purposes.
2010 Financial Performance Guidance
DineEquity provided the following update to its fiscal 2010 financial outlook primarily reflecting the impact of the scheduled sale of 63 company-operated Applebee's restaurants which is scheduled to be completed in the fourth quarter 2010:
-- Reduced consolidated cash from operations guidance by $10 million to
range between $135 and $145 million as the result of the sale of
Applebee's company-operated restaurants. Key components that comprise
the change include expected payments of net working capital
liabilities, income tax payments and reduced profit contribution. This
compares to the Company's previous expectations of $145 million to $155
million of consolidated cash from operations in 2010.
-- Reduced consolidated free cash flow to range between $108 and $118
million due to the reduction in consolidated cash from operations
expectations. Free cash flow consists of consolidated cash from
operations plus approximately $16 million generated from the structural
run-off of the Company's long-term notes receivable. Uses of cash
include consolidated capital expenditures of approximately $20 million
and approximately $23 million in preferred stock dividend payments. The
Company plans to use available free cash flow to fund securitized debt
reductions.
-- Reduced consolidated securitized debt interest expense expectations to
range between $170 million and $175 million for 2010, approximately
$40 million of which is non-cash interest expense, due to more
aggressive debt retirement efforts in the first half of 2010. This
compares to the Company's previous expectations of $175 million to
$180 million.
-- Increased the Company's income tax rate expectations to range between
35% and 36% compared to previous expectations of approximately 34%.
This change is primarily related to settlements on state tax audits.
-- Reiterated Applebee's domestic system-wide same-restaurant sales
performance expectations to range between flat and negative 3% for
fiscal 2010, with Applebee's franchisees slated to open between 25 and
30 new restaurants this year.
-- Reiterated operating margin expectations at Applebee's
company-operated restaurants to range between 13.5% and 14.5% for the
full year 2010.
-- Reiterated IHOP's domestic system-wide same-restaurant sales
performance expectations to range between positive 1% and negative 1%
for fiscal 2010, with IHOP franchisees slated to open between 60 and
70 new restaurants this year.
-- Reiterated consolidated G&A expense expectations to range between
$158 million and $161 million for fiscal 2010, including non-cash
stock based compensation expense and depreciation of approximately
$20 million.
-- Reiterated depreciation and amortization expectations to range between
$65 million and $70 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release includes references to the Company's non-GAAP financial measures "adjusted net income available to common stockholders (adjusted EPS)," "EBITDA," and "free cash flow." Adjusted EPS is computed for a given period by deducting from net income (loss) available to common stockholders for such period the effect of any impairment and closure charges, any gain related to debt extinguishment, any intangible asset amortization, any non-cash interest expense and any gain or loss related to the disposition of assets incurred in such period. This is presented on an aggregate basis and a per share (diluted) basis. The Company defines "EBITDA" for a given period as income before income taxes (including gain on extinguishment of debt) less interest expense, depreciation and amortization, impairment and closure charges, stock-based compensation, gain/loss on sale of assets and non-cash amounts related to a captive insurance subsidiary. "EBITDAR" for a given period is defined as EBITDA plus annualized operating lease expense (Rent). "Free cash flow" for a given period is defined as cash provided by operating activities, plus receipts from notes and equipment contracts receivable ("long-term notes receivable"), less dividends paid and capital expenditures. Management utilizes EBITDA for debt covenant purposes and free cash flow to determine the amount of cash remaining for general corporate and strategic purposes after the receipts from long-term notes receivable, and the funding of operating activities, capital expenditures and preferred dividends. Management believes this information is helpful to investors to determine the Company's adherence to debt covenants and the Company's cash available for these purposes. Adjusted EPS, EBITDA and 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 generally accepted accounting principles.

Restaurant Data
The following table sets forth, for the three-month and six-month
periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, 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. "Effective restaurants" are the number of restaurants in a
given period, adjusted to account for restaurants open for only a portion
of the period. Information is presented for all effective restaurants in
the IHOP and Applebee's systems, which includes restaurants owned by the
Company, as well as those owned by franchisees and area licensees. 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, as well as rental
payments under leases that are usually 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.

(a) "Effective restaurants" are the number of restaurants 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 IHOP and Applebee's 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 IHOP and Applebee's restaurants
operated by franchisees and IHOP restaurants operated by 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.
(c) "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) "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 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 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 restaurants located
in Florida.
(e) Applebee's franchise restaurant sales were $870.2 million and $886.4
million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009,
respectively, and $1,787.4 million and $1,826.3 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. IHOP franchise
restaurant sales were $589.2 million and $564.3 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $1,188.9
million and $1,146.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010
and 2009, respectively.
(f) Sales percentage change and same-restaurant sales percentage change
for IHOP company-operated restaurants are not meaningful ("n.m.")
due to the relatively small number and test-market nature of the
restaurants, along with the periodic inclusion of restaurants
reacquired from franchisees that are temporarily operated by the
Company.
(g) The sales percentage change for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2009 for Applebee's franchise and company-operated
restaurants was impacted by the franchising of 103 company-operated
restaurants during 2008 and seven company-operated restaurants in
2009.
(h) Sales at IHOP area license restaurants were $55.0 million and $54.4
million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009,
respectively, and $115.1 million and $110.9 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
