SAN DIEGO–11/21/2011 (CRWENEWSWIRE) — Jack in the Box Inc. (NASDAQ:JACK) today reported net earnings of $22.7 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter ended October 2, 2011, compared with net earnings of $4.0 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. Fiscal 2011 net earnings totaled $80.6 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, compared with net earnings of $70.2 million, or $1.26 per diluted share, in fiscal 2010. In last year�s fourth quarter, 40 Jack in the Box(R) company restaurants were closed, and the company recorded pre-tax charges totaling $28.0 million (included in �impairment and other charges, net� in the accompanying consolidated statements of earnings), which reduced diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.33 in both the fourth quarter and fiscal 2010.
Operating earnings per share, a non-GAAP measure which the company defines as diluted earnings per share on a GAAP basis less gains from refranchising, were approximately $0.19 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2011. For fiscal year 2011, operating earnings per share were approximately $0.83 compared with approximately $0.61 last year (including the $0.33 charge relating to restaurant closures in 2010).
Gains from refranchising contributed approximately $0.30 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2011 and approximately $0.78 for fiscal year 2011 as compared with approximately $0.65 per diluted share in fiscal year 2010.
The fourth quarter and fiscal year ended October 2, 2011, included 12 weeks and 52 weeks, respectively, as compared to 13 weeks and 53 weeks in the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended October 3, 2010, respectively. The company estimates that the extra week benefited diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.03 in both the fourth quarter and fiscal 2010.

Linda A. Lang, chairman, chief executive officer and president, said, �Jack in the Box company same-store sales increased 5.8 percent in the fourth quarter, ahead of our expectations, as sales and traffic accelerated in the last two months of the quarter. On a two-year cumulative basis, this represented our fifth consecutive quarter of sequentially improving company same-store sales trends. We believe these results have been largely driven by the investments we have made to enhance the entire guest experience at the Jack in the Box brand.
�Qdoba�s same-store sales in the fourth quarter increased 3.7 percent system-wide, representing the third consecutive quarter that two-year cumulative same-store sales have been greater than 9 percent,� Lang said.
Consolidated restaurant operating margin was 13.5 percent of sales in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared with 12.5 percent of sales in the year-ago quarter.
Food and packaging costs in the quarter were 190 basis points higher than prior year. Overall commodity costs were approximately 7 percent higher in the quarter, driven by higher costs for most commodities other than poultry and largely consistent with the company�s expectations.
Payroll and employee benefits costs were 110 basis points lower than the year-ago quarter, reflecting lower insurance costs and the benefit of refranchising. These decreases were partially offset by higher unemployment taxes resulting from rate increases in several states.
Occupancy and other costs decreased 180 basis points in the fourth quarter due primarily to lower repairs and maintenance costs and utilities expenses, and the benefit of refranchising. These decreases were partially offset by higher rent expense as a percentage of sales due to the greater proportion of company-operated Qdoba restaurants versus the prior year.
SG&A expense for the fourth quarter decreased by $7.3 million and was 10.6 percent of revenues compared with 10.8 percent last year. SG&A expense for fiscal 2011 decreased by $18.9 million and was 10.2 percent of revenues compared with 10.6 percent last year. The variances in SG&A were attributable primarily to the following:
The 53rd week added approximately $3.6 million to SG&A in last year�s fourth quarter and fiscal year.
Advertising costs were $5.2 million lower in the fourth quarter and $17.9 million lower in fiscal 2011, due primarily to the impact of refranchising Jack in the Box restaurants and a decrease in incremental spending compared to the fourth quarter and fiscal 2010. These decreases were partially offset by higher advertising expense for Qdoba due to the increase in the number of company-owned restaurants and same-store sales growth.
Incentive compensation accruals decreased by $2.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.
Pension expense, which is non-cash in nature, decreased by $1.3 million in the fourth quarter and by $5.3 million for fiscal 2011.
The company�s refranchising strategy and planned overhead reductions resulted in lower general and administrative costs of approximately $0.4 million for the fourth quarter and $5.9 million for the full year.
These decreases were partially offset by the following:
Mark-to-market adjustments on investments supporting the company�s non-qualified retirement plans negatively impacted SG&A by $4.6 million in the fourth quarter as compared to a positive impact of $2.1 million in last year�s fourth quarter, resulting in a year-over-year increase in SG&A of $6.7 million. For fiscal 2011, mark-to-market adjustments negatively impacted SG&A by $0.1 million as compared to a positive impact of $2.7 million last year, resulting in a year-over-year increase in SG&A of $2.8 million.
Insurance recoveries related to Hurricane Ike resulted in a $1.2 million benefit in the fourth quarter of 2010 and a $4.2 million benefit in fiscal 2010.
Incentive compensation accruals increased by $2.2 million in fiscal 2011.
Qdoba G&A increased by $0.9 million in the fourth quarter and $4.4 million in fiscal 2011 due primarily to higher overhead to support recently acquired franchise markets and new unit growth.
Gains on the sale of 106 company-operated Jack in the Box restaurants to franchisees totaled $22.2 million in the fourth quarter, or approximately $0.30 per diluted share. For fiscal 2011, gains on the sale of 332 company-operated restaurants to franchisees totaled $61.1 million, or approximately $0.78 per diluted share, compared with $55.0 million, or approximately $0.65 per diluted share in fiscal 2010 from the sale of 219 company-operated restaurants. Total proceeds related to refranchising, including cash and notes receivable, for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2011 were $43.4 million and $120.3 million, respectively.
�With the sale of 332 restaurants in fiscal 2011, the Jack in the Box system was 72 percent franchised as of the end of the year, and we�ve achieved our original goal of increasing the percentage of franchise ownership to 70 to 80 percent two years ahead of plan,� Lang said. �Over the last six years, we have refranchised more than 1,000 restaurants and expect to refranchise 150 to 200 restaurants over the next couple of years, which will bring our Jack in the Box franchise ownership to approximately 80 percent of the system.�
The company repurchased approximately 2,637,000 shares of its common stock in the fourth quarter of 2011 at an average price of $20.42 per share. In fiscal 2011, the company returned over $193 million to shareholders through the repurchase of approximately 9,106,000 shares of its common stock at an average price of $21.27 per share. In October 2011, the company completed the repurchase of the remaining $6.4 million authorized by its board of directors in May 2011. In November 2011, the company�s board of directors authorized an additional $100 million stock-buyback program that expires in November 2013.
Restaurant openings
Ten new Jack in the Box restaurants opened in the fourth quarter, including 6 franchised locations, compared with 14 new restaurants opened system-wide during the same quarter last year, of which 2 were franchised. For the full year, 31 new Jack in the Box restaurants opened, including 16 franchised locations, compared with 46 new restaurants in fiscal 2010, 16 of which were franchised.
In the fourth quarter, 20 Qdoba restaurants opened, including 12 franchised locations, versus 13 new restaurants in the year-ago quarter, of which 6 were franchised. For the full year, 67 Qdoba restaurants opened, including 42 franchised locations, compared with 36 new restaurants in fiscal 2010, 21 of which were franchised.
At October 2, 2011, the company�s system total comprised 2,221 Jack in the Box restaurants, including 1,592 franchised locations, and 583 Qdoba restaurants, including 338 franchised locations.

Same-store sales are expected to increase approximately 2 to 4 percent at Jack in the Box company restaurants.
Same-store sales are expected to increase approximately 3 to 5 percent at Qdoba system restaurants.
Overall commodity costs are expected to increase by approximately 5 percent for the full year, with higher inflation in the first half of the fiscal year.
Restaurant operating margin for the full year is expected to be in the mid-13 percent range, depending on same-store sales and commodity inflation.

70 to 90 new Qdoba restaurants are expected to open, of which approximately half are expected to be company locations.
