AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring accruals, which in the opinion of the 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 results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 1996. 2. In the first quarter of 1995, the Company recognized severance charges of $800,000 associated with a realignment of responsibilities in its restaurant operations, restaurant development and purchasing functions. The effect of the charges was $484,000, net of income tax benefit, or $.05 per share. 5 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations - --------------------- The following table sets forth certain operating data for IHOP restaurants:

(a) The Company reports restaurants in Canada as franchise restaurants although nine of the ten restaurants are operated under an area license agreement. IHOP's quarterly results are subject to seasonal fluctuations. Revenues from sales of franchises are affected by the timing of new restaurant openings and the restaurants in the Company's "inventory" of restaurants available from time to time for franchising; the impact of such factors is usually not evenly distributed throughout the year. As a consequence, the results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 1996. 7 System-wide retail sales for the second quarter and first six months of 1996 increased 10.0% and 10.9%, respectively, over system-wide retail sales for the comparable 1995 periods. This was due to increases in the number of effective restaurants of 8.7% and 9.0% and increases in average per unit revenues of 1.1% and 1.6% over the respective prior year periods. The above increases were mitigated by unfavorable exchange fluctuations in the Japanese yen. If the Japanese sales were excluded from the comparison, system-wide sales would have increased by 12.5% in the second quarter and 12.8% in the first six months of 1996. System-wide comparable average sales per restaurant (exclusive of area license restaurants in Florida and Japan) for the second quarter and first six months of 1996 increased 0.3% and 0.4%, respectively, over those in the comparable 1995 periods. Management continues to pursue sales increases through the Company's restaurant development program, improved 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 1996 increased 11.8% and 11.0%, respectively, over revenues for the comparable 1995 periods. This was primarily due to increases in the number of effective franchised units of 9.0% and 9.3% coupled with increases in average per unit revenues of 2.7% and 3.1% for the 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 1996 increased 11.5% and 9.5%, respectively, over costs and expenses for the comparable 1995 periods. As a result of franchise revenues increasing in excess of franchise expenses, the margin from franchise operations improved to 53.9% and 53.7% in the second quarter and first six months of 1996, respectively, versus 53.7% and 53.0% in the comparable 1995 periods. The margin improved primarily because of increasing 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 1996 increased 23.5% and 23.8%, respectively, over revenues for the comparable 1995 periods. This was primarily due to increases in the number of effective Company-operated restaurants of 14.3% and 14.9%, respectively, and the revenues per effective Company-operated restaurant of 7.9% in both the second quarter and first six months of 1996 over the comparable 1995 periods. Company-operated restaurant costs and expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 1996 increased 21.3% and 21.2%, respectively, over costs and expenses for the comparable 1995 periods. Margin from Company-operated restaurants was 5.8% in the second quarter and 6.3% for the first six months of 1996 versus a margin of 4.2% for both the quarter and the first six months of 1995. The changes in margin were primarily due to decreases in food costs, salaries, wages and rent expense as a percentage of revenues. Other revenues for the second quarter of 1996 decreased 10.9% from other revenues for the second quarter of 1995. Other revenues for the first six months of 1996 increased 21.0% from those in the comparable 1995 period. The primary reason for the decrease in the quarter was a decrease in the sales of franchises and equipment to $4,330,000 in the second quarter of 1996 from $5,587,000 in the comparable 1995 period. The increase in the six months was due to the sales of franchises and equipment increasing to $6,578,000 in the first six months of 1996 from $5,841,000 in the comparable 1995 period and increases in interest income from direct financing leases. The Company franchised 14 and 20 restaurants in the second quarter and first six months of 1996, respectively, compared with 13 and 19 restaurants in the comparable 1995 periods. Revenues from sales of franchises and equipment and their associated costs of sales are 8 affected by the mix and number of restaurants franchised, as follows: (i) restaurants newly developed by IHOP normally franchise for $200,000 to $350,000, have little if any associated franchise cost of sales and have equipment in excess of $300,000 that is sold usually at about breakeven; (ii) restaurants developed by franchisees normally franchise for $50,000, have minor associated franchise cost of sales and do not include an equipment sale; and (iii) previously reacquired franchises normally refranchise for $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 noted earlier, sales of franchises and equipment are also affected by the timing of new restaurant openings and the restaurants in the Company's "inventory" of restaurants available from time to time for franchising. Other costs and expenses for the second quarter decreased by 28% from the comparable 1995 period. Other costs and expenses for the first six months of 1996 increased 7.2% from the comparable 1995 period. The decrease was primarily due to lower franchise and equipment cost of sales in the second quarter of 1996 of $2,066,000 versus $2,891,000 in the second quarter of 1995. The increase in the six months was primarily due to higher franchise and equipment cost of sales of $3,296,000 in the first six months of 1996 versus $2,891,000 in the comparable 1995 period. Field, corporate and administrative expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 1996 increased 10.4% and 14.2%, respectively, over the comparable 1995 periods. In general, field, corporate and administrative expenses have been increasing moderately as a result of normal increases in salaries and wages, inflation and increases in headcount due to the increased workloads as the company grows. Field, corporate and administrative expenses were 3.2% and 3.4% of system-wide sales in the second quarter and first six months of 1996, respectively, compared with 3.2% and 3.3%, respectively, in the comparable 1995 periods. Depreciation and amortization expense increased 13.0% and 14.9% in the second quarter and first six months of 1996, respectively, over the comparable 1995 periods primarily due to depreciation and amortization associated with the addition of new, larger restaurants. Interest expense increased 31.9% and 29.5% in the second quarter and first six months of 1996, respectively, over the comparable 1995 periods due primarily to interest associated with increased capital lease obligations. Severance charges of $800,000, or $484,000 net of income tax benefit, or $.05 per share, were recognized in the first quarter of 1995. The charges were associated with a realignment of responsibilities in the Company's restaurant operations, restaurant development and purchasing functions. (See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.) Provision for income taxes was 39.5% of income before income taxes in the second quarter and first six months of 1996 and in the comparable 1995 periods. 9 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 1996, IHOP and its franchisees and area licensees plan to develop and open approximately 75 to 80 restaurants. Included in that number are the development of 50 to 55 new restaurants by the Company and 25 by IHOP franchisees and area licensees. Capital expenditures budgeted for 1996, which include IHOP's portion of the above development program, are approximately $60 million. In November 1996, the first 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 $26 million) and its revolving line of credit will be sufficient to cover its operating requirements and its projected capital expenditures in 1996. At June 30, 1996, $11 million was available to be borrowed under the Company's unsecured bank revolving credit agreement. 10 Part II. OTHER INFORMATION - --------------------------- Item 4.
