The Cheesecake Factory Reports Results for Second Quarter of Fiscal 2022 and Provides Business Update

The Cheesecake Factory Incorporated (NASDAQ: CAKE) today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, which ended on June 28, 2022.

Total revenues were $832.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to $769.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. Net income and diluted net income per share were $25.7 million and $0.50, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

Excluding the after-tax impact of a $0.8 million charge recorded by the Company primarily associated with FRC acquisition-related items, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 were $26.4 million and $0.52, respectively. Please see the Company’s reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures at the end of this press release.

Comparable restaurant sales at The Cheesecake Factory restaurants increased 4.7% year-over-year in the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

“We were pleased with our second quarter topline results across our brands, as we continued to outperform the broader casual dining industry, underscoring the strength of our portfolio,” said David Overton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Within the four walls of our restaurants, our tenured operators remained focused on delivering delicious, memorable experiences for our guests while maintaining our high labor productivity and food efficiency results.”

“The inflationary environment remains dynamic and in the second quarter we faced measurably higher costs than anticipated. Despite these near-term headwinds, we remain committed to returning margins to pre-pandemic levels while managing our business for the long-term. With record restaurant staffing levels in July and our proven track record of resiliency, I remain confident in our ability to deliver on our objectives and create long-term shareholder value.”

Development

The Company now expects to open as many as 15 new restaurants in fiscal 2022, including as many as four Cheesecake Factory restaurants, four North Italia restaurants, and as many as seven FRC restaurants, including three Flower Child locations. This includes the opening of the first brick and mortar location of Fly Bye, FRC’s newest fast casual dining concept offering Detroit-style pizza and crispy chicken, which opened subsequent to second quarter-end in Phoenix, AZ.

In addition, in fiscal 2022 the Company expects one Cheesecake Factory restaurant to open internationally under a licensing agreement.

Liquidity and Capital Allocation

During the second quarter, the Company generated $54.0 million in cash flow from operating activities.

As of June 28, 2022, the Company had total available liquidity of $433 million, including a cash balance of $195 million and availability on its revolving credit facility of $238 million. Total principal amount of debt outstanding was $475 million, including $345 million in principal amount of 0.375% convertible senior notes due 2026 and $130 million in principal amount drawn on the Company’s revolving credit facility.

The Company repurchased approximately 360,000 shares of its common stock at a cost of $10.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, and also announced today that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.27 per share to be paid on August 23, 2022 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 10, 2022.

Conference Call and Webcast

The Company will hold a conference call to review its results for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 today at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time. The conference call will be webcast live on the Company’s website at investors.thecheesecakefactory.com and a replay of the webcast will be available through August 26, 2022.

(1) During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company completed the repurchase of 150,000 shares of its previously outstanding convertible preferred stock and the conversion of the remaining 50,000 shares of convertible preferred stock into approximately 2.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock, which simplified the Company’s capital structure and eliminated future convertible preferred dividends. For GAAP accounting purposes, $13.6 million of the total consideration paid was deemed to be a dividend during the second quarter of fiscal 2021.

(2) Diluted net income per common share reflects an adjustment for reallocation of undistributed earnings to preferred stock of $72,552 and $65,204, respectively, for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2021.

The unamortized issuance costs were recorded as a contra-liability and netted with long-term debt on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and are being amortized as interest expense.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Results to GAAP Results

In addition to the results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in this press release, the Company is providing non-GAAP measurements which present net income and net income per share excluding the impact of certain items. The non-GAAP measurements are intended to supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are calculated by eliminating from net income and diluted net income per share the impact of items the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operations. To reflect the then-potential impact of the conversion of the Company’s convertible preferred stock into common stock for the period that it was outstanding prior to the repurchase and conversion on June 15, 2021, the Company excluded the preferred dividend and assumed all convertible preferred shares convert to common stock. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons.
