“Starbucks Q3 represents another quarter of outstanding operating performance in which each of our segments contributed to record results,” said Howard Schultz, chairman, president and ceo of Starbucks Coffee Company. “The increasing power of the Starbucks brand, the success of our best-in-class mobile, social and digital technologies and our greatest asset - over 300,000 partners who deliver the Starbucks Experience to over 70 million customers around the world each week - position us to continue growing our business around the world and into the future.”

“Starbucks record Q3 results demonstrate both the power of our innovation and the opportunities for growth, globally and in the U.S., that lie ahead.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

In addition to the GAAP results provided in this release, the company provides expected non-GAAP earnings per share for Q4 fiscal 2014 and full year fiscal 2014. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to non-GAAP earnings per share is diluted net earnings per share.

The expected Q4 fiscal 2014 and full year fiscal 2014 non-GAAP earnings per share being furnished exclude the estimated non-routine net benefit related to the sale of certain retail operations that may close in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014. The full year fiscal 2014 non-GAAP earnings per share being furnished also exclude the benefit recognized from a litigation credit in Q1 fiscal 2014. The company’s management believes that providing these non-GAAP financial measures better enables investors to understand and evaluate the company’s prospective operating performance. More specifically, management excludes these two non-routine benefits because it believes that the impacts of these benefits do not reflect expected future gains or expenses beyond fiscal 2014 and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company’s future operating performance or comparisons to the company’s past operating performance.

These non-GAAP financial measures may have limitations as analytical tools, and these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company’s results as reported under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than the company does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
