MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Quarter Ended June 29, 1994 versus June 30, 1993 The Company experienced strong sales growth during the second quarter of 1994 with restaurant sales up 13% over the comparable quarter of 1993. Substantially all of the increase resulted from the 15% unit growth of Company-owned restaurants, which totaled 202 at June 29, 1994 and 178 at June 30, 1993. Same-store sales, or average unit sales in restaurants that have been open for at least 18 months and operated during comparable weeks during the current and prior years, declined 1.1% during the quarter compared to a 2.8% decline during the second quarter of 1993. Total costs and expenses of Company-owned restaurants include food and beverage, payroll, payroll taxes and employee benefits, depreciation and amortization, repairs, maintenance, utilities, supplies, advertising, insurance, property taxes and licenses. Such costs, as a percentage of sales, were 83.9% during the second quarter of 1994 compared to 84.8% in 1993. In 1994, the Company benefited from favorable beef and chicken prices, resulting in 1.2% reduction in food costs, as a percent of sales, during the quarter. Payroll and benefits decreased to 27.2% of sales in 1994 from 27.7% in 1993 due to improved controls over store-level payroll and lower workers' compensation costs. All other operating costs, including depreciation and amortization of pre-opening costs, increased to 15.9% of sales in 1994 compared to 15.1% in 1993 due to higher utility, repairs and maintenance and store-based promotional costs. Also, it should be noted that many other operating costs, including depreciation and amortization of pre- opening costs, are fixed costs, and a decline in same-store sales would increase their impact on margins. Based on these factors, the Company's gross operating margins at the restaurant level were 16.1% and 15.2% for the second quarters of 1994 and 1993, respectively. General and administrative expenses increased to 4.0% of sales compared to 3.5% in 1993. Higher personnel costs were the principal reason underlying the increase. It should again be noted that many general and administrative expenses are fixed costs, and a decline in same-store sales would increase their impact on margins. Revenues from franchised restaurants, which numbered 31 at June 29, 1994 and 36 at June 30, 1993, decreased by $595,000 due principally to the nonrecognition of royalty income from the Company's largest franchisee, Family Steak Houses of Florida, Inc. ("Family"). Through June 29, 1994, this franchisee had not paid any royalty fees since August 1993. Following extensive negotiations, partial payments on the past-due balance and current royalty payments were made by Family in July 1994 and again in August 1994. All future payments from Family will recognized as revenue on a cash basis after satisfaction of the current net outstanding receivable balance, which amounted to approximately $114,000 after application of the aforementioned payments. Based on projected payment dates, management anticipates that no significant amounts of royalty income will be included in the Company's financial results until the fourth quarter of 1994. However, in spite of recent developments, there can be no assurance that either the remaining past due or future royalty fees will be collected. Interest expense increased by $176,000, to 0.2% of sales, resulting principally from less capitalized interest, which reflects 1994's lower level of construction activity in relation to the Company's outstanding debt. Also, the Company's effective average interest rate increased to 4.4% in 1994 compared to 3.5% in 1993. The effective income tax rates used for the second quarters of 1994 and 1993 were 37.0% and 36.5%, respectively. It should be noted that in August 1993 the "Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993" was enacted, raising the Federal corporate tax rate 1% to 35% Net earnings for the second quarter of 1994 amounted to $8.8 million compared to $7.9 million in 1993. Six Months June 29, 1994 versus June 30, 1993 For the six months ended June 29, 1994, revenues were up 16% compared to the same period in 1993, principally due to 15% average unit growth. Same-store sales declined 0.6% during the first six months of 1994 compared to a 3.7% decline in 1993. Six-month costs and expenses as detailed above were 84.4% and 84.6% of Company-owned restaurant sales for 1994 and 1993, respectively. During the first six months of 1994, costs and expenses were most affected by the following offsetting factors: (1) the decrease in food and beverage costs (see second quarter discussion above) and (2) the negative leverage of fixed costs resulting from the decline in same-store sales. Depreciation, amortization of pre- opening costs and other operating expenses increased to 16.2% in 1994 compared to 15.3% in 1993. Based on these factors, the Company's gross operating margins at the restaurant level were 15.6% and 15.4% for the second six months of 1994 and 1993, respectively. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 4.2% in 1994 and 3.8% in 1993. Revenues from franchised restaurants decreased by $1,250,000 due principally to the nonrecognition of royalty income from the Company's largest franchisee, Family Steak Houses of Florida, Inc. (see second quarter discussion above). Effective income tax rates used for the six-month periods were 37.0% in both 1994 and 1993. Net earnings for the first six months of 1994 amounted to $16.1 million compared to $15.1 million in 1993. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's revenues are primarily derived from cash sales. Inventories are purchased on credit and are rapidly converted to cash. Therefore, the Company does not maintain significant receivables or inventories, and other working capital requirements for operations are not significant. At June 29, 1994, the Company's working capital was a $82.3 million deficit compared to a $75.4 million deficit at December 29, 1993. Included in these amounts are borrowings of $57.9 million and $58.1 million, respectively, under bank lines of credit (see next paragraph). The Company does not anticipate any adverse effects from the current working capital deficit due to significant cash flow provided by operations, which amounted to $29.8 million for the six months ended June 29, 1994. Total capital expenditures for the first six months of 1994 amounted to $31.8 million. During 1994, Ryan's plans to build and open 20 new restaurants and install scatter bars in approximately 40 restaurants. During the quarter, Ryan's opened 5 new restaurants and closed 1 unprofitable store. Total capital expenditures for 1994 are estimated at $62 million. Management estimates that external funding requirements for 1994 will range from $5 million to $7 million. The Company has formal and informal bank lines of credit totaling $85 million at floating short-term rates, of which $57.9 million was utilized and classified as current debt at June 29, 1994. The Company owns all of its property and equipment and is under no significant lease obligations other than for three parcels of land which are under lease for at least 35 years. IMPACT OF INFLATION The Company's operating costs that may be affected by inflation consist principally of food, payroll and utilities costs. Also, a significant number of the Company's restaurant employees are paid at the minimum wage and, accordingly, changes in the Federal minimum wage affect the Company's payroll costs. The Federal minimum wage last increased in April 1991, and no further increases have been legislated. Future benefit costs may be affected by future legislated changes in medical insurance coverage. The Company considers its current price structure to be very competitive. This factor, among others, is considered by the Company when passing increased costs on to its customers. Annual menu price increases have consistently ranged from 1% to 3%. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings. None reportable. Item 2. Changes in Securities. None. Item 3.
