Commenting on the business, Cracker Barrel President and Chief Executive Officer Sandra B. Cochran said, “I am pleased that we once again delivered improved restaurant sales and strong retail sales despite the impact of rising COVID cases during the second quarter, and even more pleased to be welcoming back our guests who we believe are eager to return to more normalized routines of travel and visitation as Omicron fades and concerns about indoor dining continue to subside. Although we anticipate a peak inflationary environment in the third quarter for both commodities and wages that will pressure our third quarter operating margins, we are confident that our initiatives to welcome back our guests, drive sales, and manage costs will lead to a meaningful recovery of both top and bottom-line results in the fourth quarter and into fiscal 2023.”

Second Quarter Fiscal 2022 Results
Revenue
The Company reported total revenue of $862.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, representing an increase of 27.3% compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2021, and an increase of 6.2% compared to the second quarter of 2019. Cracker Barrel comparable store restaurant and retail sales compared to the second quarter of fiscal 20191 and versus the second quarter of fiscal 2021 were as follows:
| Versus FY19 Comparable Period1 | Versus FY21 Comparable Period | |||||||
| Second Quarter Ended 1/28/22 | Second Quarter Ended 1/28/22 | |||||||
| Comparable restaurant sales | 1.9 | % | 25.9 | % | ||||
| Comparable retail sales | 13.7 | % | 32.5 | % | ||||
The Company believes that providing comparable store sales results back to fiscal 2019, which is the most recent full fiscal year that was not impacted by COVID-19, provides a more useful comparison than comparing to COVID-impacted periods.
Operating Income
GAAP operating income for the second quarter was $46.7 million, or 5.4% of total revenue, a 224% increase compared to prior year quarter GAAP operating income of $14.4 million, or 2.1% of total revenue. Excluding the approximately $3.2 million in non-cash amortization related to the gains on the previously disclosed sale and leaseback transactions, adjusted2 operating income for the second quarter was $49.8 million, or 5.8% of total revenue, a 184% increase over the prior year quarter adjusted2 operating income of $17.6 million, or 2.6% of total revenue.
Net Income and EBITDA
GAAP net income for the second quarter was $37.6 million, or 4.4% of total revenue, a 169% increase compared to prior year quarter GAAP net income of $14.0 million, or 2.1% of total revenue. EBITDA2 was $75.4 million, or 8.7% of total revenue, a 68% increase over the prior year quarter EBITDA2 of $45.0 million, or 6.6% of total revenue.
Earnings per Diluted Share
GAAP earnings per diluted share for the second quarter were $1.60, a 171% increase compared to the prior year quarter GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.59. Adjusted2 earnings per diluted share were $1.71, a 144% increase over the prior year quarter adjusted2 earnings per diluted share of $0.70.
Share Repurchases
The Company repurchased $34.2 million in shares during the second quarter as part of its September 2021 $100.0 million share repurchase authorization. When combined with $30.7 million in dividends paid, the Company returned a total of $64.9 million to shareholders in the second quarter.
Fiscal 2022 Outlook
The Company expects that headwinds from elevated COVID case counts early in the quarter, as well as seasonally lower demand patterns, will result in third quarter total revenue of approximately $800 million.
The Company also anticipates commodity inflation of approximately 15% and wage inflation of approximately 11% to 12% for the third quarter. Accounting for these factors, the Company expects to report third quarter adjusted2 operating income margin of approximately 5.0% of total revenue.

For the fourth quarter, the Company expects that benefits from additional pricing and cost management actions, and a more favorable consumer and inflationary environment, will support a fourth quarter margin result approaching the prior year’s fourth quarter margin.
For the second half of fiscal 2022, the Company expects:
| § | Capital expenditures of approximately $60 million; |
| § | An effective tax rate of approximately 14%; and |
| § | The opening of 2 new Cracker Barrel locations and between 9 and 11 new Maple Street Biscuit Company locations, in addition to the one Maple Street Biscuit Company location that opened in the second quarter. |
The Company reminds investors that its outlook for fiscal 2022 reflects a number of assumptions, many of which are outside the Company’s control.
1 For the purpose of comparing to fiscal 2019, comparable stores are defined as restaurants open a full six months prior to the beginning of the FY19 baseline comparison period.

Reconciliation of GAAP-basis operating results to non-GAAP operating results
(Unaudited)
Adjusted Operating Income and Earnings Per Share
In the accompanying press release, the Company makes reference to its second quarter fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2022 adjusted operating income and earnings per share. In regards to fiscal 2022, this reconciliation excludes non-cash amortization of the asset recognized from the gains on the sale and leaseback transactions and the related tax impact. In regards to fiscal 2021, this reconciliation excludes the gain on sale of assets from the sale-leaseback transaction that closed in the first quarter, non-cash amortization of the asset recognized from the gains on sale-leaseback transactions, expenses related to the proxy contest initiated by affiliates of Sardar Biglari in connection with the Company's 2020 annual meeting of shareholders, and the related tax impacts of these items. The Company believes excluding these items from its financial results provides investors with an enhanced understanding of the Company's financial results and enhances comparability across periods. This information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income or earnings per share information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

CRACKER BARREL OLD COUNTRY STORE, INC.
Reconciliation of GAAP-basis operating results to non-GAAP operating results (Unaudited and in thousands)
EBITDA
In the accompanying press release, the Company makes reference to its second quarter fiscal 2021 and 2022 EBITDA. The Company defines EBITDA as net income excluding depreciation and amortization, non-cash amortization of the asset recognized from the gains on sale and leaseback transactions, interest expense and tax expense. The Company believes that presentation of EBITDA provides investors with an enhanced understanding of the Company's operating performance and debt leverage metrics, and that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure, when combined with the primary presentation of net income, is beneficial to an investor’s complete understanding of its operating performance. For 2021, the Company then excludes the gain on sale of assets from the sale-leaseback transaction that closed in the first quarter of 2021 and expenses related to the proxy contest initiated by affiliates of Sardar Biglari in connection with the Company's 2020 annual meeting of shareholders to calculate Adjusted EBITDA. The Company makes additional adjustments to EBITDA because the Company believes that excluding these items from Adjusted EBITDA enhances comparability across periods. This information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income prepared in accordance with GAAP.
