David A. Brandon, Domino’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said: “We did a good job of anticipating the economic downturn in the U.S. and we cut costs before the economy weakened. We have been intensely focused on controlled overhead spending throughout the past three years. As a result, we are now in a position to invest in our business; invest in our franchisees; invest in our marketing; invest in our technology; and expand our global footprint. We’re making excellent progress…and we’re in a great position to take full advantage of all of the opportunities we will encounter when domestic consumer spending improves and we return to a more normalized economic environment.”
Brandon added, “Our proven, steady, and reliable business model consistently generates on average free cash flow in excess of $1 million per-week that we will continue to deploy in a manner that creates significant shareholder value.”

Items Affecting Comparability
The Company’s reported financial results for the third quarter and first three quarters of 2009 are not comparable to the reported financial results for the prior year comparable periods. The table below presents items that affect comparability between 2009 and 2008 financial results. Management believes that including such information is critical to the understanding of the Company’s comparable financial results. (See theComments on Regulation G section).
In addition to the items noted in the table below, the Company experienced lower interest expense primarily as a result of lower debt levels. This impacts comparability to periods in the prior year. The decrease in ongoing interest expense resulted in an increase in diluted EPS of approximately $0.03 in the third quarter of 2009 and $0.04 in the first three quarters of 2009, versus the comparable periods in 2008.

Liquidity
As of September 6, 2009, the Company had:
| • | approximately $1.6 billion in total debt, |
| • | $48.7 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, and |
| • | $56.4 million of borrowings under its $60.0 million variable funding note facility. |
During the third quarter of 2009, Domino’s Pizza LLC (DPL), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Letter of Credit Agreement (the L/C Agreement). As a result of the L/C Agreement, the Company terminated substantially all of its pre-existing letters of credit in order to provide additional borrowing availability under its variable funding notes. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company borrowed an additional $35.1 million under the variable funding notes and currently has no borrowing capacity available under the $60.0 million variable funding notes facility.
The L/C Agreement states that the counterparty may issue, at DPL’s request, up to $50.0 million of standby letters of credit for the account of DPL and its subsidiaries. DPL will maintain a cash balance as collateral for these outstanding letters of credit. During the third quarter of 2009, the counterparty issued $33.5 million of standby letters of credit and the Company restricted an additional $35.2 million of cash on its consolidated balance sheet as collateral for these outstanding letters of credit.
The Company’s cash borrowing rate for the third quarter of 2009 was 6.0%. The Company incurred $13.5 million in capital expenditures during the first three quarters of 2009 versus $13.1 million in the first three quarters of the prior year.
The Company’s free cash flow, as reconciled below to cash flows from operations as determined under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), was $41.3 million in the first three quarters of 2009.
| (in thousands) | First Three Quarters of 2009 | |||
Net cash provided by operating activities (as reported) | $ | 54,812 | ||
Capital expenditures (as reported) | (13,539 | ) | ||
Free cash flow | $ | 41,273 | ||
Comments on Regulation G
In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, the Company has included non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G due to items affecting comparability between fiscal quarters. Additionally, the Company has included metrics such as global retail sales and same store sales growth, which are commonly used in the quick-service restaurant industry and are important to understanding Company performance.
The Company uses “Diluted EPS, as adjusted,” which is calculated as reported Diluted EPS adjusted for the items that affect comparability to the prior year periods discussed above. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP is Diluted EPS. The Company’s management believes that the Diluted EPS, as adjusted measure is important and useful to investors and other interested persons and that such persons benefit from having a consistent basis for comparison between reporting periods.

The Company uses “Global retail sales” to refer to total worldwide retail sales at Company-owned and franchise stores. Management believes global retail sales information is useful in analyzing revenues because franchisees pay royalties that are based on a percentage of franchise retail sales. Management reviews comparable industry global retail sales information to assess business trends and to track the growth of the Domino’s Pizza® brand. In addition, domestic supply chain revenues are directly impacted by changes in domestic franchise retail sales. Retail sales for franchise stores are reported to the Company by its franchisees and are not included in Company revenues.
The Company uses “Same store sales growth,” calculated by including only sales from stores that also had sales in the comparable period of the prior year. International same store sales growth is calculated similarly to domestic same store sales growth. Changes in international same store sales are reported on a constant dollar basis, which reflects changes in international local currency sales.
The Company uses “Free cash flow,” calculated as cash flows from operations less capital expenditures, both as reported. Management believes that the free cash flow measure is important to investors and other interested persons, and that such persons benefit from having a measure which communicates how much cash flow is available for working capital needs or to be used for repurchasing debt, making acquisitions, repurchasing shares or other similar uses of cash.
