The Cheesecake Factory Reports Results for Second Quarter of Fiscal 2023 and Provides Business Update

The Cheesecake Factory Incorporated (NASDAQ: CAKE) today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2023, which ended on July 4, 2023.

Total revenues were $866.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $832.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2022. Net income and diluted net income per share were $42.7 million and $0.87, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2023.

The Company recorded a pre-tax net expense of $0.6 million related to Fox Restaurant Concepts (“FRC”) acquisition-related expenses and impairment of assets and lease termination income. Excluding the after-tax impact of these items, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 were $43.1 million and $0.88, respectively. Please see the Company’s reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures at the end of this press release.

Comparable restaurant sales at The Cheesecake Factory restaurants increased 1.5% year-over-year in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 and increased 14.1% relative to the second quarter of fiscal 2019, on an operating week basis.

“I am pleased to report our second quarter results marked the third consecutive quarter of sequential profit margin expansion, finishing above our expectations, reflecting continued progress against our stated goal of recapturing our margins,” said David Overton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We delivered another quarter of comparable sales growth across our portfolio of concepts, with comparable sales at The Cheesecake Factory restaurants continuing to outpace the industry relative to 2019. Our experienced operators drove solid operational execution within our restaurants to deliver year-over-year improvements in labor productivity and hourly staff and manager retention.”

“We opened three new restaurants during the second quarter, including two in the Miami area which opened to impressive demand, underscoring the strength of the consumer demand for our concepts and the unique dining experiences we provide for our guests. We remain intently focused on accelerating our unit growth and achieving our long-term unit growth objectives, despite ongoing construction and permitting challenges.”

Development

During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company opened a Cheesecake Factory and a Henry in the Miami area and a Doughbird in Tucson, AZ. While all of the sites in the Company’s pipeline remain active, the Company continues to experience some delays in opening dates due to construction challenges and permit approval delays. As a result, the Company now expects to open as many as 20 new restaurants in fiscal 2023, including as many as six Cheesecake Factory restaurants, five North Italia restaurants, and as many as nine FRC restaurants, including three Flower Child locations.

In addition, in fiscal 2023 the Company expects two to three Cheesecake Factory restaurants to open internationally under licensing agreements.

Liquidity and Capital Allocation

As of July 4, 2023, the Company had total available liquidity of $330.1 million, including a cash balance of $91.6 million and availability on its revolving credit facility of $238.5 million. Total principal amount of debt outstanding was $475 million, including $345 million in principal amount of 0.375% convertible senior notes due 2026 and $130 million in principal amount drawn on the Company’s revolving credit facility.

The Company repurchased approximately 280,400 shares of its stock at a cost of $9.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023. In addition, the Company’s Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.27 per share to be paid on August 29, 2023 to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 16, 2023.

Conference Call and Webcast

The Company will hold a conference call to review its results for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 today at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time. The conference call will be webcast live on the Company’s website at investors.thecheesecakefactory.com and a replay of the webcast will be available through September 1, 2023.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Results to GAAP Results

In addition to the results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in this press release, the Company is providing non-GAAP measurements which present net income and net income per share excluding the impact of certain items. The non-GAAP measurements are intended to supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are calculated by eliminating from net income and diluted net income per share the impact of items the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operations. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons.
