CEO Comments

"Our third quarter results position us well to deliver on our EPS goals for the year. Our International business continues to deliver strong performance and our ongoing productivity efforts led to 70 basis points of restaurant margin expansion in the quarter," said Elizabeth Smith, CEO. "We knew that our back half trends would be challenged given the high year ago base; however, our marketing programs did not break through as expected.  We are preparing for 2016 with significant innovation driven platforms and new levers to drive comp sales."

  • The decrease in Total revenues was primarily due to the effect of foreign currency translation, partially offset by the net benefit of new restaurant openings and closings.
  • The increases  in Adjusted restaurant-level operating margin and Adjusted operating income margin were primarily due to productivity savings and increased efficiencies in advertising expenses. These increases were partially offset by commodity and wage inflation.
  • The difference between Adjusted and U.S. GAAP restaurant-level operating margins in Q3 2015 was due to the favorable resolution of a payroll tax audit contingency.
  • The increase in U.S. GAAP operating income margin in Q3 2015 was primarily due to the lapping of costs related to our International Restaurant Closure Initiative and impairments related to the decision to sell our corporate aircraft and Roy's.
