SEATTLE; January 28, 2025 – Starbucks Corporation (Nasdaq: SBUX) today reported financial results for its 13-week fiscal first quarter ended December 29, 2024. Constant currency measures are non-GAAP measures. Please refer to the reconciliations of constant currency measures at the end of this release for more information.
Q1 Fiscal Year 2025 Highlights
•Global comparable store sales declined 4%, driven by a 6% decline in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 3% increase in average ticket
◦North America and U.S. comparable store sales declined 4%, driven by an 8% decline in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 4% increase in average ticket
◦International comparable store sales declined 4%, driven by a 2% decline in both average ticket and comparable transactions; China comparable store sales declined 6%, driven by a 4% decline in average ticket and a 2% decline in comparable transactions
•The company opened 377 net new stores in Q1, ending the period with 40,576 stores: 53% company-operated and 47% licensed
◦At the end of Q1, stores in the U.S. and China comprised 61% of the company’s global portfolio, with 17,049 and 7,685 stores in the U.S. and China, respectively
•Consolidated net revenues of $9.4 billion were flat to prior year, including on a constant currency basis
•Operating margin contracted 390 basis points year-over-year to 11.9%, primarily driven by deleverage and investments in support of “Back to Starbucks,” including store partner wages, benefits and hours, and the removal of the extra charge for non-dairy milk customizations. The contraction was partially offset by the annualization of pricing and supply chain efficiencies. On a constant currency basis, operating margin contracted 380 basis points year-over-year.
•Earnings per share of $0.69 declined 23% over prior year, or declined 22% on a constant currency basis
•Starbucks Rewards loyalty program 90-day active members in the U.S. totaled 34.6 million, up 1% year-over-year and up 2% quarter-over-quarter
“While we’re only one quarter into our turnaround, we’re moving quickly to act on the 'Back to Starbucks' efforts and we’ve seen a positive response,” commented Brian Niccol, chairman and chief executive officer. “We believe this is the fundamental change in strategy needed to solve our underlying issues, restore confidence in our brand and return the business to sustainable, long-term growth,” Niccol added.
“We are encouraged by our Q1 results, which demonstrated the effectiveness of our 'Back to Starbucks' strategy, evidenced by our top-line trend,” commented Rachel Ruggeri, chief financial officer. “Although we are in the beginning chapter, and have much more work ahead of us, we will continue to prioritize shareholder value through dividends, providing a predictable return of capital while we turn around our business,” Ruggeri added.

Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed. |
Net revenues for the North America segment decreased 1% over Q1 FY24 to $7.1 billion in Q1 FY25, primarily due to a 4% decline in comparable store sales, driven by an 8% decline in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 4% increase in average ticket, as well as a decline in our licensed store business. These decreases were partially offset by net new company-operated store growth of 5% over the past 12 months.
Operating income decreased to $1.2 billion in Q1 FY25 compared to $1.5 billion in Q1 FY24. Operating margin of 16.7% contracted from 21.4% in the prior year, primarily driven by deleverage and investments in support of “Back to Starbucks,” including store partner wages, benefits and hours, and the removal of the extra charge for non-dairy milk customizations. This contraction was partially offset by the annualization of pricing.

(1) Includes only Starbucks® company-operated stores open 13 months or longer. Comparable store sales exclude the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and Siren Retail stores. Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed. |
Net revenues for the International segment increased 1% over Q1 FY24 to $1.9 billion in Q1 FY25, primarily due to net new company-operated store growth of 9% over the past 12 months and incremental net revenue from the acquisition of a U.K. licensed business partner. This increase was partially offset by a 4% decline in comparable store sales, driven by a 2% decline in both average ticket and comparable transactions.
Operating income decreased to $237.1 million in Q1 FY25 compared to $241.5 million in Q1 FY24. Operating margin of 12.7% contracted from 13.1% in the prior year, primarily driven by increased promotional activity and investments in store partner wages and benefits. This contraction was partially offset by supply chain and in-store efficiencies.
Q1 Channel Development Segment Results | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | |
| Quarter Ended | | Change (%) |
($ in millions) | Dec 29, 2024 | | Dec 31, 2023 | |

Net revenues | $436.3 | | $448.0 | | (3)% |
Operating Income | $208.0 | | $209.7 | | (1)% |
Operating Margin | 47.7% | | 46.8% | | 90 bps |
Net revenues for the Channel Development segment declined 3% over Q1 FY24 to $436.3 million in Q1 FY25, primarily due to a decline in revenue in the Global Coffee Alliance from SKU optimization and a decrease in global ready-to-drink revenue.
Operating income decreased to $208.0 million in Q1 FY25 compared to $209.7 million in Q1 FY24. Operating margin of 47.7% expanded from 46.8% in the prior year, primarily driven by mix shift and lower product costs related to the Global Coffee Alliance. This expansion was partially offset by higher costs in our North American Coffee Partnership joint venture income.

Non-GAAP Disclosure
In addition to the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) results provided in this release, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, or alternatives for, GAAP. The Company presents constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present the constant currency non-GAAP information, including with respect to consolidated net revenues, operating income, operating margin, and earnings per share, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars using the average monthly exchange rates from the comparative period rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective periods, excluding related hedging activities. We believe the presentation of results on a constant currency basis in addition to GAAP results helps users better understand our performance, because it excludes the effects of foreign currency volatility that are not indicative of our underlying operating results.
Constant currency may have limitations as analytical tools. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company’s results as reported under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than the company does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
