NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position as of December 18, 1996, the consolidated statements of earnings for the twelve weeks ended December 18, 1996 and December 20, 1995 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the twelve weeks ended December 18, 1996 and December 20, 1995 have been included. Certain 1996 items have been reclassified to conform to the 1997 presentation. The consolidated statements of earnings for the twelve weeks ended December 18, 1996 and December 20, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the consolidated statements of earnings for the entire year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 25, 1996. SEASONAL ASPECTS The Company has substantial fixed costs which do not decline as a result of a decline in sales. The Company's second fiscal quarter, which falls during the winter months, usually reflects lower average weekly unit volumes, and sales can be adversely affected by severe winter weather. INTEREST AND INCOME TAXES PAID Cash payments for interest during the twelve weeks ended December 18, 1996 and December 20, 1995 amounted to $1,020,000 and $673,000, respectively. Cash payments for income taxes during the twelve weeks ended December 18, 1996 and December 20, 1995 amounted to $372,000 and $84,000, respectively. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY The number of shares issued as of December 18, 1996 on the consolidated statement of financial position includes 1,402,298 shares which were distributed on January 20, 1997 pursuant to a 10% stock dividend declared on December 18, 1996 to shareholders of record on January 6, 1997. 6 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS In the following discussion, the term "same store sales" refers to the sales of only those units open for at least six months prior to the beginning of the fiscal periods being compared and which remained open through the end of the fiscal period. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to revenues of items included in the Company's consolidated statements of earnings for the periods indicated: TWELVE WEEKS ENDED ----------------------- 12/18/96 12/20/95 -------- -------- REVENUES Net sales 97.7% 97.7% Franchise fees 1.2 1.2 Other, net 1.1 1.1 ----- ----- 100.0 100.0 ----- ----- COSTS AND EXPENSES Cost of sales 26.1 25.6 Restaurant operating costs 43.7 44.2 General and administrative 7.8 7.9 Depreciation and amortization 4.0 3.8 Marketing 3.0 3.1 Rent 3.3 3.4 Amortization of pre-opening costs 1.4 1.4 Interest 1.4 1.4 ----- ----- 90.7 90.8 ----- ----- EARNINGS BEFORE INCOME TAXES 9.3 9.2 INCOME TAXES 3.5 3.5 ----- ----- NET EARNINGS 5.8% 5.7% ----- ----- ----- ----- COMPARISON OF TWELVE WEEKS ENDED DECEMBER 18, 1996 TO TWELVE WEEKS ENDED DECEMBER 20, 1995 REVENUES Revenues increased $7,488,000 to $55,599,000, or 15.6%, due primarily to an increase in Steak n Shake's net sales of $7,449,000. The increase in net sales of Steak n Shake was due to the opening of new units pursuant to the Company's expansion plan (non-same stores), partially offset by a decrease in same store sales of 0.6% and the closure of three low-volume units. The decrease in same store sales was attributable to a decrease of 2.7% in customer counts partially offset by a 2.1% increase in check average. Steak n Shake instituted price increases of 1.4% and 1.3% in January 1996 and October 1996, respectively. The retail environment with fewer shopping days between Thanksgiving and Christmas had a somewhat negative effect on same store sales. After excluding units in close proximity (generally three miles) to the new units opened during the periods, Steak n Shake same store sales increased 2.1%. Franchise fees, which includes both initial franchise fees and royalties on franchise sales, increased $89,000 to $654,000 due primarily to the opening of 15 Steak n Shake franchised units since the beginning of fiscal 1996. 7 COSTS AND EXPENSES Cost of sales increased $2,163,000, or 17.5%, as a result of sales increases. As a percentage of revenues, cost of sales increased to 26.1% from 25.6%, primarily as a result of increased dairy and beef costs, along with the mix of Company-operated cost of sales and the cost of sales on product sales to franchisees. Restaurant operating costs increased $3,023,000, or 14.2%, due to higher labor costs and other operating costs resulting from the increased sales volume. Restaurant operating costs, as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 43.7% from 44.2%, primarily as a result of the increase in Steak n Shake sales and improved labor utilization. The Company's operating margins improved slightly despite the effect of the minimum wage increase and inflationary pressures on food cost. General and administrative expenses increased $522,000 or 13.7%. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses decreased slightly to 7.8% from 7.9%. The increase in expenses was attributable to personnel related costs, which included costs for additional staffing in connection with the development of new restaurants. The $418,000 increase in depreciation and amortization expense was attributable to the net depreciable capital additions since the beginning of fiscal 1996. Marketing expense increased $194,000, or 13.2%. As a percentage of revenues, marketing expense decreased slightly to 3.0% from 3.1%. Rent expense increased $162,000, or 9.9%, as a result of sale and leaseback transactions since the beginning of fiscal 1996 involving eight Company-owned properties and a net increase in the number of other leased properties. The $135,000 increase in the amortization of pre-opening costs was attributable to the increase in the number of new Company-operated units opened. Interest expense increased $127,000 as a result of the increased borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit and senior note agreements, partially offset by the reduction in capital lease obligations. INCOME TAXES The Company's effective income tax rate decreased slightly to 37.5% from 37.8% for both the quarter ended December 20, 1995 and the year ended September 25, 1996. The decrease from the prior period and from fiscal 1996 resulted from an increase in federal tax credits as a percentage of earnings before income taxes. A valuation allowance against gross deferred tax assets has not been provided based upon the expectation of future taxable income. NET EARNINGS Net earnings increased $475,000 to $3,229,000, or 17.3%, primarily as a result of the increase in Steak n Shake's operating earnings. Fully diluted earnings per share increased from $.18 to $.21. 8 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Thirteen Steak n Shake restaurants, including two franchised units, were opened during the quarter ended December 18, 1996. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, two Company-operated Steak n Shake restaurants were opened. Eleven additional units, including three franchised units, are currently under construction. For the quarter ended December 18, 1996, capital expenditures totaled $15,268,000 as compared to $12,793,000 for the comparable prior year period. The primary sources of funds for the Company's expansion program have been cash flow from operations, borrowings, and capital generated by sale and leaseback transactions. During the twelve weeks ended December 18, 1996, the Company borrowed the remaining $5,000,000 available under the $25,000,000 ten-year Senior Note Agreement and Private Shelf Facility (the "Senior Note Agreement"). As of December 18, 1996, outstanding borrowings under the Senior Note Agreement bear interest at an average fixed rate of 7.7%. The Company's $30,000,000 Revolving Credit Agreement extends to December 1997, with interest rates based on LIBOR plus 87.5 basis points or the prime rate, at the election of the Company. The amount outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement was $14,000,000 as of December 18, 1996. The Company expects to be able to secure a new revolving credit facility upon expiration of the current agreement. The Company's debt agreements contain restrictions, which among other things require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. The Company's current expansion plan calls for 240 new Company-operated restaurants to be opened during the five-year period from fiscal 1997 to fiscal 2001. The Company intends to fund capital expenditures and meet working capital needs using existing resources and anticipated cash flows from operations, together with additional capital generated by sale and leaseback transactions involving newly acquired properties, bank borrowings, and the issuance of equity and/or debt securities.
