Dine Brands Global, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2024 Results

PASADENA, Calif., August 7, 2024 – Dine Brands Global, Inc. (NYSE: DIN), the parent company of Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill & Bar^®, IHOP^® and Fuzzy’s Taco Shop^® restaurants, today announced financial results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2024.

“Our brands have a long history of weathering economic cycles and despite the consumer pullback the industry witnessed this quarter, we are confident that our strategies around profitable promotions, menu innovation and development will help us manage both short-term challenges while positioning us for the long term,” said John Peyton, chief executive officer, Dine Brands Global, Inc.

Vance Chang, chief financial officer, Dine Brands Global, Inc. added, “Our asset light model allows us to return capital to investors and maintain the strength of our balance sheet in all economic cycles. We are revising our financial guidance for the remainder of the fiscal year to reflect the current macro conditions and we are optimistic about the strategic advantage of Dine’s platform to create value for all stakeholders in the long term.”

Domestic Restaurant Sales for the Second Quarter of 2024

●

Applebee’s year-over-year domestic comparable same-restaurant sales declined 1.8% for the second quarter of 2024. Off-premise sales mix accounted for 21.4% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to 22.6% in the second quarter of 2023.

●

IHOP’s year-over-year domestic comparable same-restaurant sales declined 1.4% for the second quarter of 2024. Off-premise sales mix accounted for 19.8% in the second quarter of 2024 compared to 20.7% in the second quarter of 2023.

Second Quarter of 2024 Summary

●

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2024 were $206.3 million compared to $208.4 million for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the negative comparable same-restaurant sales growth at Applebee’s and IHOP, partially offset by increases in the number of effective franchise restaurants and proprietary product sales at IHOP.

●

General and Administrative (“G&A”) expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were $46.9 million compared to $47.8 million for the second quarter of 2023. The variance was primarily attributable to the stopping of the IHOP Flip’d initiative in the prior year offset by an increase in compensation-related expenses and an increase in depreciation expense.

●

GAAP net income available to common stockholders was $22.5 million, or earnings per diluted share of $1.50, for the second quarter of 2024 compared to net income available to common stockholders of $17.8 million, or earnings per diluted share of $1.16 for the second quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in segment profit, a prior year loss on disposition of assets, a prior year loss on debt extinguishment and a decrease in G&A expenses, partially offset by an increase in income taxes.

●

Adjusted net income available to common stockholders was $25.6 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.71, for the second quarter of 2024 compared to adjusted net income available to common stockholders of $27.8 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.82, for the second quarter of 2023. The decline was primarily due to an increase in G&A expenses, partially offset by a decrease in the number of diluted shares. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for definition and reconciliation of GAAP net income available to common stockholders to adjusted net income available to common stockholders.)

●

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2024 was $67.0 million compared to $67.3 million for the second quarter of 2023. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for definition and reconciliation of GAAP net income to consolidated adjusted EBITDA.)

●

Development activity by Applebee’s and IHOP franchisees for the second quarter of 2024 resulted in 16 new restaurant openings and 25 restaurant closures.

First Six Months of 2024 Summary

●

Total revenues for the first six months of 2024 were $412.5 million compared to $422.2 million for the first six months of 2023. The decline was primarily due to the negative comparable same-restaurant sales growth at Applebee’s and IHOP, partially offset by increases in the number of effective franchise restaurants and proprietary product sales at IHOP.

●

G&A expenses for the first six months of 2024 were $99.0 million compared to $98.9 million for the first six months of 2023. The variance was primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation, depreciation and severance expense, offset by the stopping of the IHOP Flip’d initiative in the prior period and a decrease in occupancy costs.

Page 2 of 16

●

GAAP net income available to common stockholders was $39.4 million, or earnings per diluted share of $2.64, for the first six months of 2024 compared to net income available to common stockholders of $44.5 million, or earnings per diluted share of $2.91 for the first six months of 2023. The decline was primarily due to a decrease in segment profit and an increase in interest expense as a result of our April 2023 refinancing, partially offset by a prior year loss on disposition of assets.

●

Adjusted net income available to common stockholders was $45.5 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $3.04, for the first 6 months of 2024 compared to adjusted net income available to common stockholders of $58.0 million, or adjusted earnings per diluted share of $3.79, for the first six months of 2023. The decline was primarily due to a decrease in segment profit, an increase in G&A expenses and an increase in interest expense as a result of our April 2023 refinancing, partially offset by a decrease in income taxes. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for definition and reconciliation of GAAP net income available to common stockholders to adjusted net income available to common stockholders.)

●

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the first six months of 2024 was $127.8 million compared to $133.7 million for the first six months of 2023. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for definition and reconciliation of GAAP net income to consolidated adjusted EBITDA.)

●

Cash flows provided by operating activities for the first six months of 2024 were $52.2 million. This compares to cash flows provided by operating activities of $42.7 million for the first six months of 2023. The increase was primarily due to a favorable increase in working capital, partially offset by a decrease in segment profit.

●

Adjusted free cash flow was $52.9 million for the first six months of 2024. This compares to adjusted free cash flow of $24.1 million for the first six months of 2023. (See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for definition and reconciliation of the Company’s cash provided by operating activities to adjusted free cash flow.)

●

Development activity by Applebee’s and IHOP franchisees for the first six months of 2024 resulted in 25 new restaurant openings and 45 restaurant closures.

Key Balance Sheet Metrics (as of June 30, 2024)

●

Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of approximately $218.4 million, of which approximately $153.5 million was unrestricted cash.

●

Available borrowing capacity under the Variable Funding Senior Secured Notes is over $223 million.

GAAP Effective Tax Rate

The Company’s effective tax rate was 26.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to 24.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was higher than the rate of the prior comparable period primarily due to a lower tax deduction related to stock-based compensation.

Capital Returns to Equity Holders

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company repurchased approximately $6.0 million of its common stock and paid quarterly cash dividends totaling approximately $7.9 million.

Financial Performance Guidance for 2024

The Company‘s fiscal year 2024 guidance items have been revised as follows:

●

Reduced: Applebee’s domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales performance is expected to range between negative 4% and negative 2% (versus between 0% and 2% previously).

●

Reduced: IHOP’s domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales performance is expected to range between negative 2% and 0% (versus between 1% and 3% previously).

●

Reiterated: Domestic development activity for Applebee’s franchisees is between 25 and 35 net fewer restaurants.

●

Reduced: Domestic development activity by IHOP franchisees and area licensees is expected to be between 0 and 10 net new openings (versus between 15 to 25 net new openings previously).

●

Reduced: Consolidated adjusted EBITDA is expected to range between approximately $245 million and $255 million (versus between $255 million and $265 million previously).

●

Narrowed: G&A expenses are expected to range between approximately $200 million and $205 million (versus between $200 million and $210 million previously). This total includes non-cash stock-based compensation expense and depreciation of approximately $35 million.

●

Reduced: Gross capital expenditures are expected to range between approximately $14 million and $16 million (versus between $15 million and $20 million previously).

Dine Brands does not provide forward-looking guidance for GAAP net income because it is unable to predict certain items contained in the GAAP measure without unreasonable efforts. These items may include closure and impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt, gain or loss on disposition of assets, other non-income-based taxes and other items deemed not reflective of current operations.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes references to the Company’s non-GAAP financial measure “adjusted net income available to common stockholders”, “adjusted earnings per diluted share (Adjusted EPS)”, “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted free cash flow.” Adjusted EPS is computed for a given period by deducting from net income or loss available to common stockholders for such period the effect of any closure and impairment charges, any intangible asset amortization, any non-cash interest expense, any gain or loss related to the disposition of assets, any gain or loss related to debt extinguishment, and other items deemed not reflective of current operations. This is presented on an aggregate basis and a per share (diluted) basis. Adjusted EBITDA is computed for a given period by deducting from net income or loss for such period the effect of any interest charges, any income tax provision or benefit, any depreciation and amortization, any non-cash stock-based compensation, any closure and impairment charges, any gain or loss related to debt extinguishment, any gain or loss related to the disposition of assets, and other items deemed not reflective of current operations. “Adjusted free cash flow” for a given period is defined as cash provided by operating activities, plus receipts from notes and equipment contracts receivable, less capital expenditures. Management may use certain of these non-GAAP financial measures along with the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of the business and to make certain business decisions. Management uses adjusted free cash flow in its periodic assessments of, among other things, the amount of cash dividends per share of common stock and repurchases of common stock and we believe it is important for investors to have the same measure used by management for that purpose. Adjusted free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional meaningful information that should be considered when assessing the business and the Company’s performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace. Adjusted EPS and adjusted free cash flow are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

Reconciliation of the Company’s cash flows provided by operating activities to “adjusted free cash flow” (cash flows provided by operating activities, plus receipts from notes and equipment contracts receivable, less additions to property and equipment). Management uses this liquidity measure in its periodic assessments of, among other things, the amount of cash dividends per share of common stock and repurchases of common stock. We believe it is important for investors to have the same measure used by management for that purpose. Adjusted free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(in thousands)

(Unaudited)

Reconciliation of the Company’s net income to “adjusted EBITDA.” The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income or loss, adjusted for the effect of interest charges, income tax provision or benefit, depreciation and amortization, non-cash stock-based compensation, closure and impairment charges, loss on extinguishment of debt, gain or loss on disposition of assets, and other items deemed not reflective of current operations. Management may use certain non-GAAP measures along with the corresponding U.S. GAAP measures to evaluate the performance of the Company and to make certain business decisions.

Restaurant Data

(Unaudited)

The following table sets forth, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the number of “Effective Restaurants” in the Applebee’s, IHOP and Fuzzy’s systems and information regarding the percentage change in sales at those restaurants compared to the same periods in the prior year and, as such, the percentage change in sales at Effective Restaurants is based on non-GAAP sales data. Sales at restaurants that are owned by franchisees and area licensees are not attributable to the Company. However, we believe that presentation of this information is useful in analyzing our revenues because franchisees and area licensees pay us royalties and advertising fees that are generally based on a percentage of their sales, and, where applicable, rental payments under leases that partially may be based on a percentage of their sales. Management also uses this information to make decisions about future plans for the development of additional restaurants as well as evaluation of current operations.

(a)

“Effective Restaurants” are the weighted average number of restaurants open in each fiscal period, adjusted to account for restaurants open for only a portion of the period. Information is presented for all Effective Restaurants in the Applebee’s and IHOP systems, which consist of restaurants owned by franchisees and area licensees as well as those owned by the Company. Effective Restaurants do not include units operated as ghost kitchens (small kitchens with no store-front presence, used to fill off-premise orders).

(b)

“System-wide sales” are retail sales at Applebee’s and Fuzzy’s restaurants operated by franchisees and IHOP restaurants operated by franchisees and area licensees, as reported to the Company, in addition to retail sales at company-operated Fuzzy’s restaurants. System-wide sales do not include retail sales of ghost kitchens. Sales at restaurants that are owned by franchisees and area licensees are not attributable to the Company. An increase in franchisees’ reported sales will result in a corresponding increase in our royalty revenue, while a decrease in franchisees’ reported sales will result in a corresponding decrease in our royalty revenue. Unaudited reported sales for Applebee’s and Fuzzy’s domestic franchise restaurants, Fuzzy’s company-operated restaurants, IHOP franchise restaurants and IHOP area license restaurants were as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
*Reported sales (in millions)*
Applebee’s franchise restaurant sales	$	1,066.4	$	1,099.3	$	2,154.5	$	2,255.4
IHOP franchise restaurant sales		822.0		822.7		1,625.9		1,624.9
IHOP area license restaurant sales		75.1		76.0		152.9		153.8
Fuzzy’s franchise restaurant sales		51.9		59.1		99.1		112.7
Fuzzy’s company-operated restaurants		0.3		0.5		0.6		1.5

Total	$	2,015.7	$	2,057.6	$	4,033.0	$	4,148.3

(c)	“Sales percentage change” reflects, for each category of restaurants, the percentage change in sales in any given fiscal period compared to the prior fiscal period for all restaurants in that category.

(d)

“Domestic same-restaurant sales percentage change” reflects the percentage change in sales in any given fiscal period, compared to the same weeks in the prior fiscal period, for domestic restaurants that have been operated during both fiscal periods that are being compared and have been open for at least 18 months. Because of new restaurant openings and restaurant closures, the domestic restaurants open throughout both fiscal periods being compared may be different from period to period.
