HOUSTON, Nov. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Luby's, Inc. (NYSE: LUB) ("Luby's") today announced unaudited financial results for its sixteen-week fourth quarter and fifty-two week fiscal year, which ended on August 27, 2014.
Total revenues for the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 were $123.6 million and loss from continuing operations before special items was $0.05 per diluted share. This compares to revenue of $123.3 million and income from continuing operations before special items of $0.07 per diluted share in the same quarter fiscal 2013. Total revenues for fiscal 2014 were $394.4 million and income from continuing operations before special items was $0.03 per diluted share, compared to $384.2 million and $0.18 per diluted share respectively for fiscal 2013.
Chris Pappas, President and CEO, commented, "Fiscal 2014 was a pivotal year for our company as we exceeded our strategic restaurant development growth plans by opening 12 new Company-owned locations, including four ("combo" concept) locations consisting of a side-by-side Luby's and Fuddruckers. In addition, we opened one stand-alone Luby's Cafeteria and three stand-alone Fuddruckers. Three more locations were converted from Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurants to Fuddruckers restaurants. Our Fuddruckers franchisees opened six new units, comprised of three new domestic and three new international locations. Finally, our culinary contract services business expanded its footprint to servicing 25 locations at the end of fiscal 2014 compared to 21 locations at the end of fiscal 2013.
"From an operational perspective, Luby's Cafeterias' same-store sales in the quarter and fiscal year were positive, an increase of 1.4% for the fiscal year, while Fuddruckers' same-store sales declined for both the quarter and the year, resulting in flat total same-store sales for the company. We have aggressively undertaken a number of operational and management initiatives to reverse this trend at Fuddruckers, and we are pleased to report that through the first eight weeks of fiscal 2015, Fuddruckers' same-store sales and guest traffic are positive. In addition, we have made significant progress with our plans to reposition Cheeseburger in Paradise locations by converting and reopening three as Fuddruckers restaurants during fiscal 2014 with six more planned conversions on the horizon; the remaining six closed locations will be disposed. The eight Cheeseburger in Paradise locations that are in operation today have always been the top performers for the brand and we remain dedicated to supporting these restaurants to achieve financial and operational success.
"We ended the year with five combo locations, including four that opened in fiscal year 2014. In the fourth quarter fiscal 2014, the five combo locations contributed 4.5% to our total restaurant sales over 59 operating weeks, with sales averaging $88 thousand per week. These locations in the aggregate are meeting our sales expectations. Combo locations represent a strategic growth driver for our brands and our operating results and they remain an exciting opportunity for our company."

Total Restaurant Sales | $ 115,375 | $ 115,766 | $ (391) | (0.3%) |
- Restaurant sales decreased by $0.4 million to $115.4 million in fourth quarter fiscal 2014 compared to $115.8 million in fourth quarter fiscal 2013. Sales from combo locations, increased by $3.8 million and sales where we have a stand-alone Luby's Cafeteria increased by $0.2 million. These sales increases were offset by a decline in sales at Fuddruckers stand-alone locations of $0.3 million, a sales decline of $0.6 million at Koo Koo Roo locations, and a sales decline at Cheeseburger in Paradise locations of $3.4 million. The sales increase at Luby's Cafeterias resulted from a 1.6% increase in same-store guest traffic offset by a decline in average customer spend of 1.2%, plus the incremental sales contribution from one new Luby's Cafeteria; those additions were partially offset by the absence of sales from two closed Luby's Cafeterias. The increase in sales at our combo locations were due to the addition of four new combo locations, as well as a 5.1% increase in sales at our first combo location. The decline in sales at our Fuddruckers restaurants resulted from a 3.2% decrease in same-store guest traffic as well as a 1.5% decrease in per person average spend and the absence of sales from two closed locations. Those declines were partially offset by the sales contribution from three of the five new Fuddruckers restaurants, as two opened in the final days of the fourth quarter fiscal year 2014. Koo Koo Roo sales declines reflect ceasing operations at this brand by the end of the fourth quarter fiscal 2014.
- New stores opened since fiscal 2012 contributed $5.6 million to the year-over-year sales increase in the fourth quarter. This increase was offset by the absence of $5.0 million in sales from stores that have closed in the fourth quarter fiscal year 2013 or afterwards. Also offsetting the increase in sales at new stores is a $1.0 million decline in sales at legacy stores – restaurants in our portfolio that were in operations prior to fiscal 2012.
- Franchise revenue for Fuddruckers was $2.3 million in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 compared to $2.2 million in fourth quarter fiscal 2013. The increase reflects a $58 thousand increase in franchise fees that are earned when franchise locations are opened, offset by a $10 thousand decrease in franchise royalty revenue. On a same-store basis, sales within our franchise network in the fourth quarter fiscal year 2014 were comparable to fourth quarter fiscal 2013.
- Revenue from Culinary Contract Services increased to $5.8 million fourth quarter fiscal 2014 compared to $5.1 million fourth quarter fiscal 2013. We ended the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 operating 25 locations, an increase from 21 locations at the end of the fourth quarter fiscal 2013.
- Store level profit, defined as restaurant sales less food costs, payroll and related costs, other operating expenses, and occupancy costs, was $12.4 million, or 10.7% of restaurant sales in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014, compared to $13.8 million or 11.9% of restaurant sales in the comparable quarter fiscal 2013. Store level profit is a non-GAAP measure and reconciliation to income from continuing operations is presented after the financial statements.
- In the fourth quarter fiscal 2014, the company reported a loss from continuing operations of $1.1 million, or a loss of $0.04 per diluted share. This compares to income from continuing operations of $1.1 million, or earnings of $0.04 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter fiscal 2013. Results in fiscal 2014 and fiscal 2013 included various special items. Excluding special items, the loss from continuing operations was $1.3 million, or a loss of $0.05 per share in fourth quarter fiscal 2014 compared to $2.1 million, earnings of $0.07 per diluted share, in fourth quarter fiscal 2013.

Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2014 Operating Expense Review
Cost of food as a percentage of restaurant sales increased to 29.1% in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 from 28.8% in the comparable fiscal 2013. The food cost as percentage of sales increased primarily from higher food commodity costs which impacted each of our restaurant brands. In particular, beef prices increased approximately 10% in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 compared to the comparable quarter fiscal 2013 which had a disproportionate impact on our Fuddruckers brand.
In the fourth quarter fiscal 2014, payroll and related costs as a percentage of restaurant sales were 35.0% compared to 33.8% in fourth quarter fiscal 2013. New store openings contributed to higher management costs as both hourly restaurant staffing and management staffing is at an elevated level during the opening periods. Payroll and related costs were also negatively impacted by higher health insurance costs.
Other operating expenses include restaurant-related expenses for utilities, repairs and maintenance, advertising, insurance, supplies, and services. As a percentage of restaurant sales, other operating expenses increased to 19.3% in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 from 19.2% in the comparable quarter fiscal 2013. The increase is attributable to higher repairs and maintenance costs, higher utilities expense, and increased travel costs as a percentage of restaurant sales. These increases were partially offset by lower marketing and advertising costs and lower restaurant supplies and services costs as a percent of restaurant sales. Also offsetting these increases was the absence of a property casualty loss that was incurred in the fourth quarter fiscal 2013.
Occupancy costs include property lease expense, property taxes, and common area maintenance charges. Occupancy costs were $6.7 million in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 and $7.2 million in the fourth quarter fiscal 2013. The decrease in occupancy costs was primarily related to comparison with fourth quarter fiscal 2013 when rent reserves were recorded upon the closing of restaurants prior to the lease termination dates. This decrease was partially offset by higher property tax expense in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 compared to the comparable quarter fiscal 2013. Occupancy costs as a percentage of sales decreased 0.5% to 5.8% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 compared to 6.3% in the same quarter fiscal year 2013.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.8 million to $6.6 million in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 compared to the fourth quarter fiscal 2013. This was due primarily to an increase in the depreciable asset base from recent new store construction and remodel activity. Depreciation also increased due to the full year impact of depreciating assets acquired with the Cheeseburger in Paradise brand as well as depreciation associated with additional infrastructure and technology assets.
General and administrative expenses increased to $10.5 million in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 from $9.9 million in the fourth quarter fiscal 2013. As a percentage of total revenues, general and administrative expenses rose to 8.5% in the fourth quarter fiscal 2014, compared to 8.0% in the fourth quarter fiscal 2013. The increase is a result of higher salary and benefits expense, outside professional service fees, and computer network costs.
Balance Sheet and Capital Expenditures
As of August 27, 2014, we had $2.8 million in cash and $175.0 million in shareholders' equity. We ended the fourth quarter fiscal 2014 with a $42.0 million outstanding debt balance and $6.6 million in available credit. In November 2014, the Company amended its credit agreement with its lenders. During fiscal 2014, our capital expenditures totaled $46.2 million and included investments of $16.9 million on new unit development, $12.2 million on the purchase of land, $6.5 million on remodeling of existing restaurants and conversion of Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurants to Fuddruckers restaurants, and $10.6 million for recurring capital maintenance and new technology infrastructure.

Fiscal 2015 Outlook
"In fiscal 2014, we exceeded our new restaurant development expectations by opening twelve new restaurant locations. In fiscal 2015, we are focused on improving store level profit at these new restaurants while also enhancing our profitability at our core brand legacy locations. While we expect commodity cost pressures to increase in certain categories, we continue to implement and manage store-level initiatives to enhance efficiency and we will make modest price adjustments without sacrificing guest satisfaction. Our expectation is to maintain the same-store sales trends at Luby's Cafeterias and to achieve positive same-store sales at Fuddruckers in fiscal 2015 compared to fiscal 2014. In addition, we plan to open three new restaurants in fiscal 2015 consisting of one Fuddruckers in a newly-developed shopping center and one Combo location reflecting two restaurants, a side-by-side Luby's and Fuddruckers. This Combo location is under construction in Jackson, Mississippi, and will be our first Combo location outside of Texas. From our franchise pipeline, we expect at least seven new location openings in fiscal 2015, some domestically and some in international markets. Capital expenditures in fiscal 2015, including purchase of land, are expected to be between $20 and $25 million," concluded Pappas.

Although store level profit, defined as restaurant sales less food cost less, payroll and related costs, and other operating costs is a non-GAAP measure, we believe its presentation is useful because it explicitly shows the results of our most significant reportable segment. The following table reconciles between store level profit, a non-GAAP measure to income from continuing operations, a GAAP measure: |

Notes related to financial statements in press release: |
|
Reclassifications & Corrections |
|
1) | The operating results of 5 Cheeseburger locations closed in the year were reclassified to discontinued operations as part of a disposal plan related to select Cheeseburger in Paradise locations. One previously held for sale leasehold property in discontinued operations since fiscal 2010 was reclassified to continuing operations in the year due the decision to build a Luby's Fuddruckers Combo on the site. |
|
|
2) | Correction of immaterial errors in previously issued financial statements – In the second quarter fiscal 2014, Luby's identified errors in prepaid assets and payroll and related liabilities. The errors impacted all prior reporting periods beginning in 2007. While these errors were not material to any previously issued annual or quarterly consolidated financial statements, management concluded that correcting the cumulative errors and related tax effects would be material to consolidated financial statements for the quarter and two quarters ended February 12, 2014 and to the expected results of operations for the fiscal year ending August 27, 2014. Accordingly, Luby's will revise its prior period annual and quarterly consolidated financial statements to correct the errors in future SEC filings. The cumulative effect on retained earnings as of August 28, 2013, was a reduction of $386,000. |
