“Our third quarter financial results demonstrate the continued strength in both our U.S. and International operations,” commented Jim Donald, Starbucks president and ceo. “Record third-quarter store openings helped drive robust revenue growth and our strong year-to-date results position us well to achieve our fiscal 2006 targets. We are confident in our growth potential and our ability to execute on that growth potential.”
Added Donald, “July marked our 175th consecutive month of comparable store sales growth and we remain comfortable with our three to seven percent target range for the remainder of the fiscal year.”
Consolidated Financial and Operating Summary
Company-operated retail revenuesincreased 22 percent to $1.7 billion for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, from $1.4 billion for the same period in fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily attributable to the opening of 955 new Company-operated retail stores in the last 12 months and comparable store sales growth of six percent for the quarter. The increase in comparable store sales was due to a four percent increase in the number of customer transactions and a two percent increase in the average value per transaction.
Specialty revenuesincreased 23 percent to $303 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $245 million for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. Licensing revenues increased 27 percent to $216 million primarily due to higher product sales and royalty revenues from the opening of 1,158 new licensed retail stores in the last 12 months and, to a lesser extent, growth in the licensed grocery and warehouse club business. Foodservice and other revenues increased 15 percent to $86 million primarily due to growth in the U.S. foodservice business.
Cost of sales including occupancy costsincreased to 41.0 percent of total net revenues for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to 40.6 percent in the corresponding 13-week period of fiscal 2005. This increase was due to higher green coffee costs.
Store operating expensesas a percentage of Company-operated retail revenues increased to 41.3 percent for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, from 40.2 percent for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005, primarily due to higher payroll-related expenditures from the recognition of stock-based compensation expense and higher employee benefits costs. In addition, the Company held regional leadership conferences for its retail management employees during its third fiscal quarter of 2006, which replaced a North American leadership conference held during the fiscal second quarter of 2005.
Other operating expense(expenses associated with the Company’s specialty operations) increased to 23.0 percent of total specialty revenues for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to 19.8 percent in the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to higher marketing and advertising costs related to Starbucks ready-to-drink coffee beverages in Japan, Taiwan and Korea as well as in our

emerging U.S. Entertainment business. In addition, the recognition of stock-based compensation expense increased payroll-related expenditures.
Depreciation and amortization expensesincreased to $99 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $85 million for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to the opening of 955 new Company-operated retail stores in the last 12 months. As a percentage of total net revenues, depreciation and amortization expenses decreased to 5.0 percent for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, from 5.3 percent for the corresponding 13-week period of fiscal 2005.
General and administrative expensesincreased to $115 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $91 million for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to higher payroll-related expenditures from stock-based compensation and additional employees to support continued global growth. As a percentage of total net revenues, general and administrative expenses increased to 5.9 percent for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, from 5.7 percent for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005.
Income from equity investeesincreased 42 percent to $26 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $18 million for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to volume-driven results for The North American Coffee Partnership, which produces bottled Frappuccino® and Starbucks DoubleShot® coffee drinks, and improved results from international investees, particularly in Japan.
Operating incomeincreased 8 percent to $215 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $200 million for the corresponding 13-week period of fiscal 2005. Operating margin decreased to 10.9 percent of total net revenues for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to 12.5 percent for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005, primarily due to the recognition of stock-based compensation.
Income taxesfor the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, resulted in an effective tax rate of 33.7 percent, compared to 38.1 percent for the corresponding 13-week period of fiscal 2005. The decline in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the settlement in the current period of a multi-year income tax audit in a foreign jurisdiction for which the Company had established a contingent liability.
Net earningsfor the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, increased 16 percent to $145 million from $126 million for the same period in fiscal 2005. Earnings per share were $0.18 for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, including a $0.01 per share benefit from the tax settlement discussed above, compared to $0.16 per share for the comparable period in fiscal 2005.

Updated Fiscal 2006 Targets:
Starbucks provided updated fiscal 2006 targets:
• | Starbucks now expects to open at least 2,000 net new stores on a global basis in fiscal 2006, an increase of 200 new stores from the Company’s previous target of 1,800.

This target includes $0.01 per share related to a one-time tax benefit recorded in the fiscal third quarter and, excluding that benefit, is consistent with the Company’s previous target range of $0.71 — $0.72 per share. Both the new target and the previous target ranges include stock-based compensation expense estimated at approximately $0.09 per share; | |
• | The effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 38 percent for the fiscal fourth quarter, and; | |
• | Starbucks is now targeting capital expenditures of approximately $800 million in fiscal 2006, an increase from the previous target of $750 million — $775 million, primarily driven by the acceleration in new store development. |

• | Starbucks is targeting earnings per share of $0.87 to $0.89 for fiscal 2007, which reflects growth of approximately 20 percent to 25 percent compared to the Company’s fiscal 2006 earnings per share target range of $0.72 to $0.73 when adjusted to exclude the one-time tax benefit of $0.01 recorded in the fiscal 2006 third quarter; |

Effective October 3, 2005, the beginning of Starbucks first fiscal quarter of 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R requires all stock-based compensation, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the statement of earnings based on their fair values. The Company adopted this accounting treatment using the modified prospective transition method, as permitted under SFAS 123R; therefore results for prior periods have not been restated. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. Accordingly, stock-based compensation was included as pro forma disclosure in the financial statement footnotes. The Company is providing the table below because management believes it provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations by separately identifying the stock-based compensation expense and providing reported amounts on a basis comparable to that used in prior periods. In addition, the Company’s internal reporting and budgeting, as well as the calculation of its incentive compensation payments, excludes stock-based compensation expense from reported amounts. The amounts shown in the column below entitled “Using Previous Accounting” are considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under applicable SEC rules because they exclude the stock-based payment expense that is included in the directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States, which are shown in the column entitled “As Reported.” These non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for the reported GAAP measures.
The application of SFAS 123R had the following effect on reported amounts for the 13 and 39 weeks ended July 2, 2006 relative to the amounts that would have been reported using the intrinsic value method under the Company’s previous accounting (in thousands, except earnings per share):

United States
United States total net revenues increased by $266 million, or 20 percent, to $1.6 billion for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $1.3 billion for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. United States Company-operated retail revenues increased by $223 million, or 19 percent, to $1.4 billion, primarily due to the opening of 727 new Company-operated retail stores in the last 12 months and comparable store sales growth of six percent for the quarter. The increase in comparable store sales was due to a five percent increase in the number of customer transactions and a one percent increase in the average value per transaction.
Total United States specialty revenues increased by $44 million, or 22 percent, to $241 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $198 million in the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. United States licensing revenues increased 26 percent to $162 million from $129 million in fiscal 2005, primarily due to higher product sales and royalty revenues as a result of opening 730 new licensed retail stores in the last 12 months and, to a lesser extent, growth in the licensed grocery and warehouse club business. United States foodservice and other revenues increased to $79 million, or 15 percent, from $69 million in fiscal 2005, primarily due to growth in new and existing foodservice accounts.
United States operating income increased by 8 percent to $264 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, from $245 million for the same period in fiscal 2005. Operating margin decreased to 16.5 percent of related revenues from 18.3 percent in the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. The decrease was primarily due to higher store operating expenses from increased payroll-related expenditures and costs incurred related to regional leadership conferences, which were held during the third fiscal quarter of fiscal 2006, compared to the second quarter in fiscal 2005. Additionally, costs of sales including occupancy increased due to higher green coffee costs and higher distribution and utilities costs.
International
International total net revenues increased by $96 million, or 37 percent, to $358 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $262 million for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. International Company-operated retail revenues increased by $82 million, or 38 percent, to $297 million, primarily due to the opening of 228 new Company-operated retail stores in the last 12 months and comparable store sales growth of seven percent for the quarter. The increase in comparable store sales resulted from a four percent increase in the number of customer transactions coupled with a three percent increase in the average value per transaction.
Total international specialty revenues increased by $14 million, or 30 percent, to $61 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $47 million in the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to higher product sales and royalty revenues from opening 428 licensed retail stores in the last 12 months and sales of ready-to-drink coffee beverages introduced in Japan, Taiwan and Korea in the fall of 2005.
International operating income increased by 55 percent to $29 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $19 million in the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. Operating margin increased to 8.2 percent of related revenues from 7.2 percent in the corresponding period of fiscal 2005. This improvement was primarily due to lower costs of sales including occupancy costs due primarily to leverage gained from fixed costs distributed over an expanded revenue base. The improvement was offset in part by higher marketing expenditures in support of the re-introduction of one of the Company’s ready-to-drink coffee beverages in Japan and higher payroll-related expenditures to support global expansion.
Unallocated Corporate
Unallocated corporate expenses increased to $79 million for the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006, compared to $64 million in the corresponding period of fiscal 2005, primarily due to higher payroll-related expenses from stock-based compensation and additional employees to support continued rapid global growth. Total unallocated corporate expenses as a percentage of total net revenues were 4.0 percent for both the 13 weeks ended July 2, 2006 and July 3, 2005.
