SEATTLE--()--Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ: SBUX) today reported financial results for its 13-week fiscal second quarter ended April 3, 2022. GAAP results in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 include items that are excluded from non-GAAP results. Please refer to the reconciliation of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures at the end of this release for more information.

Q2 Fiscal 2022 Highlights

  • Global comparable store sales increased 7%, driven by a 4% increase in average ticket and a 3% increase in comparable transactions
    • North America and U.S. comparable store sales increased 12%, driven by a 7% increase in average ticket and a 5% increase in comparable transactions
    • International comparable store sales decreased 8%, driven by a 5% decline in average ticket and a 3% decline in comparable transactions; China comparable store sales decreased 23%, driven by a 20% decline in comparable transactions and a 4% decline in average ticket
    • International and China comparable store sales include the unfavorable impact of approximately 3% and 4%, respectively, from lapping prior-year value-added tax (“VAT”) exemptions in China
  • The company opened 313 net new stores in Q2, ending the period with 34,630 stores globally: 51% company-operated and 49% licensed
    • At the end of Q2, stores in the U.S. and China comprised 61% of the company’s global portfolio, with 15,544 stores in the U.S and 5,654 stores in China
  • Consolidated net revenues up 15% to a Q2 record $7.6 billion
  • GAAP operating margin of 12.4% decreased 240 basis points from 14.8% in the prior year, primarily driven by inflationary pressures, mobility restrictions and lockdowns in China and investments in retail store partner wages and benefits, partially offset by pricing in North America and lapping restructuring costs in the prior year
    • Non-GAAP operating margin of 13.0% decreased from 16.0% in the prior year
  • GAAP earnings per share of $0.58 grew 4% over the prior year
    • Non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.59, down from $0.61 in the prior year
  • Starbucks® Rewards loyalty program 90-day active members in the U.S. increased to 26.7 million, up 17% year-over-year

“We are single-mindedly focused on enhancing our core U.S. business through our partner, customer and store experiences. Given record demand and changes in customer behavior we are accelerating our store growth plans, primarily adding high-returning drive-thrus, and accelerating renovation programs so we can better meet demand and serve our customers where they are,” said Howard Schultz, interim chief executive officer. “The investments we are making in our people and the company will add the capacity we need in our U.S. stores today and position us ahead of the coming growth curve ahead,” Schultz added.

“We are confident that the investments in our partners, our stores and our brand that we announced today will deliver returns in excess of historic levels and accelerate our growth long into the future,” commented Rachel Ruggeri, chief financial officer.

Includes only Starbucks® company-operated stores open 13 months or longer. Comparable store sales exclude the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and Siren Retail stores. Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours due to the COVID-19 pandemic remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed.

Net revenues for the North America segment grew 17% over Q2 FY21 to $5.4 billion in Q2 FY22, primarily driven by a 12% increase in company-operated comparable store sales, driven by a 7% increase in average ticket and a 5% increase in transactions, performance of new stores over the past 12 months and strength in our licensed store sales.

Operating income increased to $931.5 million in Q2 FY22, up from $896.4 million in Q2 FY21. Operating margin of 17.1% contracted from 19.3% in the prior year, primarily driven by higher supply chain costs due to inflationary pressure, investments in labor including enhanced store partner wages and higher spend on new partner training, onboarding and support costs to address labor market conditions, as well as lapping prior year government subsidies. This contraction was partially offset by pricing, sales leverage and lower restructuring expenses primarily associated with the North America Trade Area Transformation.

Includes only Starbucks® company-operated stores open 13 months or longer. Comparable store sales exclude the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and Siren Retail stores. Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours due to the COVID-19 pandemic remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed. For the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the International segment's comparable store sales included a 3% adverse impact from lapping the prior-year value-added tax benefit in China.

Net revenues for the International segment grew 4% over Q2 FY21 to $1.7 billion in Q2 FY22, driven by 1,462 net new store openings, or 9% store growth, over the past 12 months, higher product sales to and royalty revenues from our licensees and the conversion of the Korea market from a joint venture to a fully licensed market in Q4 FY21. These increases were partially offset by an 8% decline in comparable store sales, primarily attributable to COVID-19 related restrictions in China and lapping the prior-year VAT benefit in China, as well as the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation.

Operating income decreased to $180.7 million in Q2 FY22 compared to $258.1 million in Q2 FY21. Operating margin of 10.6% contracted from 15.8% in the prior year, primarily driven by investments in strategic initiatives and store partner wages, lower government subsidies as well as higher product and distribution costs from a sales mix shift and inflation. This contraction was partially offset by lower amortization expenses.

Net revenues for the Channel Development segment of $463.1 million in Q2 FY22 were 25% higher relative to Q2 FY21. The increase was primarily driven by growth in the Global Coffee Alliance and the International ready-to-drink businesses.

Operating income increased to $197.9 million in Q2 FY22, up from $172.6 million in Q2 FY21. Operating margin of 42.7% decreased from 46.7% in the prior year, primarily due to business mix shift driven by growth in the Global Coffee Alliance.

Includes only Starbucks® company-operated stores open 13 months or longer. Comparable store sales exclude the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, stores identified for permanent closure and Siren Retail stores. Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours due to the COVID-19 pandemic remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed. Comparable store sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 included a 4% adverse impact from lapping the prior-year value-added tax benefit.

North America and International licensed and total stores as of March 28, 2021, have been recast as a result of our fiscal 2021 operating segment reporting structure realignment.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

In addition to the GAAP results provided in this release, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, or alternatives for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Our non-GAAP financial measures of non-GAAP general and administrative expenses (G&A), non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income growth, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP earnings per share exclude the below-listed items and their related tax impacts, as they do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company’s future operating performance or comparisons to the company's past operating performance. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to non-GAAP G&A, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income growth, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP earnings per share are general and administrative expenses, operating income, operating income growth, operating margin, effective tax rate and diluted net earnings per share, respectively.

Non-GAAP Exclusion

Rationale

Sale of certain joint venture operations

Management excludes the gain and subsequent adjustments, if any, related to the sale of joint venture operations as this activity was specific to the sale and for reasons discussed above.

Restructuring and impairment costs

Management excludes restructuring and impairment costs relating to the write-down of certain company-operated store and corporate assets. Management excludes these items for reasons discussed above. These expenses are anticipated to be completed within a finite period of time.

Integration costs

Management excludes amortization of the acquired intangible assets for reasons discussed above. Additionally, these acquired intangible assets will be amortized over a finite period of time.

Non-GAAP G&A, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income growth, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP earnings per share may have limitations as analytical tools. 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.

Certain non-GAAP measures included in this report were not reconciled to the comparable GAAP financial measures because the GAAP measures are not accessible on a forward-looking basis. The company is unable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts because the company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP measures for these periods but would not impact the non-GAAP measures. Such items may include acquisitions, divestitures, restructuring and other items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the company’s GAAP financial results.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the company changed its treatment of removing certain integration costs related to the acquisitions of Starbucks Japan and East China for its non-GAAP financial measures. Integration costs, primarily related to information technology investments and compensation-related programs, are deemed to be representative of ongoing operations. These integration costs will remain in our non-GAAP measures, and non-GAAP measures for the quarter ended March 28, 2021 have been recast to reflect this change.

(3)

Represents costs associated with our restructuring efforts.

(4)

Includes amortization expense of acquired intangible assets associated with the acquisition of East China. Fiscal 2021 also includes amortization expense of acquired intangible assets associated with the acquisition of Starbucks Japan.

(5)

Represents a beneficial return-to-provision adjustment related to the prior year divestiture of certain joint venture operations that also received non-GAAP treatment.

(6)

Adjustments were determined based on the nature of the underlying items and their relevant jurisdictional tax rates.
