Dine Brands Global, Inc. Reports Q1 Same Store Sales and Profit Growth

Refinanced $500 million of A-2 Long-Term-Debt at 7.824% Following Quarter’s End;

Resulting in $200 million Reduced Debt Balance

Re-Affirms 2023 Full-Year Guidance

Dine Brands Global, Inc. (NYSE: DIN), the parent company of Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill & Bar®, IHOP® and Fuzzy’s Taco Shop® restaurants, today announced financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

“Dine Brands has demonstrated resiliency in a challenging operating environment, which reflects the strength of our brands and strong execution,” said John Peyton, chief executive officer, Dine Brands Global. “Looking ahead, we will adapt with agility and a guest-first mindset. Dine remains committed to investing in growth, generating cash and creating value for our shareholders.”

Vance Chang, chief financial officer, added, “We are balancing our focus between current strategy execution and long-term investments. After the end of the first quarter, we were pleased to announce the completed refinancing of our Senior Secured Notes, further evidence of the strength of our steady and strong cash flow generating franchisor model in today’s lending environment.”

Domestic Restaurant Sales for the First Quarter of 2023

  • Applebee’s year-over-year comparable same-restaurant sales increased 6.1% for the first quarter of 2023. Off-premise sales accounted for 23.1% of sales mix, representing per restaurant average weekly sales of approximately $12,900.
  • IHOP’s year-over-year domestic comparable same-restaurant sales increased 8.7% for the first quarter of 2023. Off-premise sales accounted for 21.7% of sales mix, representing per restaurant average weekly sales of approximately $7,400.

First Quarter of 2023 Summary

  • Total revenues for the first quarter of 2023 were $214 million compared to $230 million for the first quarter of 2022. The decline was primarily due to the refranchising of the 69 company-operated Applebee’s units in October 2022, partially offset by the positive comparable same-restaurant sales growth at Applebee’s and IHOP. Total revenues for the first quarter of 2023, excluding the refranchised Applebee’s restaurants, increased $20 million, or 11%, from the comparable prior period.
  • General and Administrative (“G&A”) expenses for the first quarter of 2023 were $51.1 million compared to $41.5 million for the first quarter of 2022. The variance was primarily due to continued strategic growth investments, including the acquisition of Fuzzy’s Taco Shop and other non-recurring costs, as well as a return to normalized operations.
  • Net income for the first quarter of 2023 was $27.4 million compared to $24.9 million for the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher gross margin and a gain on extinguishment of debt, partially offset by higher G&A expenses.
  • GAAP net income available to common stockholders was $26.7 million, or earnings per diluted share of $1.74, for the first quarter of 2023 compared to net income available to common stockholders of $24.3 million, or earnings per diluted share of $1.45 for the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher gross margin, lower share count and a gain on debt extinguishment, offset by higher G&A expenses.
  • Adjusted net income available to common stockholders was $30.2 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.97, for the first quarter of 2023 compared to adjusted net income available to common stockholders of $25.9 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.54, for the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher gross margin and lower share count, offset by higher G&A expenses. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and reconciliation of GAAP net income available to common stockholders to adjusted net income available to common stockholders.)
  • Consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2023 was $66.4 million compared to $65.2 million for the first quarter of 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher gross margin, offset by higher G&A expenses. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and reconciliation of GAAP net income to consolidated adjusted EBITDA.)
  • Development activity by Applebee’s and IHOP franchisees for the first quarter of 2023 resulted in 21 new restaurant openings and the closure of 17 restaurants.

Key Balance Sheet Metrics (as of March 31, 2023)

  • Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $235 million, of which approximately $182 million was unrestricted cash.
  • Leverage ratio of approximately 4.5x compared to approximately 4.4x as of December 31, 2022.
  • Available borrowing capacity under the Variable Funding Senior Secured Notes is over $220 million.

GAAP Effective Tax Rate

The Company's effective tax rate was 24.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to 27.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was different than the rate of the prior comparable period primarily due to the recognition of higher excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation and lower non-deductible executive compensation.

Capital Returns to Debt and Equity Holders

On April 17, 2023, the Company completed the refinancing of its Senior Secured Notes and issued the Series 2023-1 7.824% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2 in an initial aggregate principal amount of $500 million, a reduction of $200 million from the Series 2019-1 Class A-2-I it replaced.

The Company repurchased $5 million of its common stock and paid quarterly cash dividends totaling approximately $16 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Financial Performance Guidance for 2023

The Company reiterated its fiscal 2023 guidance items:

  • Reiterated: Domestic development activity by Applebee’s franchisees of between 10 and 20 net fewer restaurants.
  • Reiterated: Domestic development activity by IHOP franchisees and area licensees is expected to be between 45 and 60 net new openings.
  • Reiterated: Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is expected in the range of between approximately $243 million and $255 million.
  • Reiterated: G&A expenses are expected to range between approximately $200 million and $210 million, due to some of our planned 2022 G&A investments extended into 2023 given the disruptions caused by the pandemic last year and other organic investments, including Fuzzy’s. This range includes non-cash stock-based compensation expense and depreciation of approximately $30 million.
  • Reiterated: Gross capital expenditures are expected to range between $33 million and $38 million.

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, any merger and acquisition costs 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, any merger and acquisition costs 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 U.S. GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of the business and to make certain business decisions. Management uses adjusted free cash flow in its periodic assessments of, among other things, the amount of cash dividends per share of common stock and repurchases of common stock and 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. Additionally, adjusted EPS is one of the metrics used in determining payouts under the Company’s annual cash incentive plan. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional meaningful information that should be considered when assessing the business and the Company’s performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace. Adjusted EPS and adjusted 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 U.S. GAAP.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

 

Reconciliation of the Company's cash flows provided by operating activities to “adjusted free cash flow” (cash flows (used in) 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

(Unaudited)

 

Reconciliation of the Company's net income to “adjusted EBITDA.” The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss, adjusted for the effect of closure and impairment charges, interest charges, income tax provision or benefit, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation, 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

(Unaudited)

 

The following table sets forth, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, 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 and, as such, the percentage change in sales at Effective Restaurants is based on non-GAAP sales data. 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, and, where applicable, rental payments under leases that partially may be 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.

Restaurant Data

(Unaudited)

 

 

(a)

“Global 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 Effective Restaurants in the Applebee’s and IHOP systems, which includes restaurants owned by franchisees and area licensees as well as those owned by the Company. Effective Restaurants do not include units operated as ghost kitchens (small kitchens with no store-front presence, used to fill off-premise orders).

(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. System-wide sales do not include retail sales of ghost kitchens. 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. Unaudited reported sales for Applebee's domestic franchise restaurants, Applebee's company-operated restaurants, IHOP franchise restaurants and IHOP area license restaurants for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were as follows:

(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)

“Domestic 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 domestic restaurants that have been operated during 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 domestic restaurants open during both fiscal periods being compared may be different from period to period.
