Texas Roadhouse, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2023 Results
LOUISVILLE, KY. (May 4, 2023) – Texas Roadhouse, Inc. (NasdaqGS: TXRH), today announced financial results for the 13 weeks ended March 28, 2023.
Financial Results
Financial results for the 13 weeks ended March 28, 2023 and March 29, 2022 were as follows:
| First Quarter | ||||||||||||
| ($000’s) | 2023 | 2022 | % change | |||||||||
| Total revenue | $ | 1,174,356 | $ | 987,486 | 18.9 | % | ||||||
| Income from operations | 100,945 | 90,138 | 12.0 | % | ||||||||
| Net income | 86,387 | 75,202 | 14.9 | % | ||||||||
| Diluted earnings per share | $ | 1.28 | $ | 1.08 | 18.4 | % | ||||||
Results for the first quarter, as compared to the prior year as applicable, included the following:
| · | Comparable restaurant sales increased 12.9% at company restaurants and increased 13.3% at domestic franchise restaurants; |
| · | Average weekly sales at company restaurants were $148,437 of which 12.8% were to-go sales as compared to average weekly sales of $132,263 of which 14.8% were to-go sales in the prior year; |
| · | Restaurant margin dollars increased 15.2% to $185.7 million from $161.2 million in the prior year primarily due to higher sales. Restaurant margin, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, decreased 53 basis points to 15.9% as commodity inflation of 8.9% and wage and other labor inflation of 8.0% were partially offset by higher sales; |
| · | Diluted earnings per share increased 18.4% primarily driven by higher restaurant margin dollars partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses; |
| · | Six company restaurants and one international franchise restaurant were opened and eight domestic franchise restaurants were acquired; and, |
| · | The Company repurchased 92,751 shares of common stock for $9.6 million. |
Jerry Morgan, Chief Executive Officer of Texas Roadhouse, Inc. commented, “I want to thank our restaurant operators for continuing to provide a legendary experience to our guests, which led to record traffic and sales levels as well as higher profitability for the quarter.”
Morgan continued, “On the capital allocation front, our development pipeline remains strong, we acquired eight domestic franchise restaurants, and we further strengthened our capital position by repaying the remainder of our debt. We are confident that our restaurant growth, commitment to our operating fundamentals, and strong balance sheet will continue to provide us the flexibility to generate long-term shareholder value.”
2023 Outlook
Comparable restaurant sales at company restaurants for the first five weeks of our second quarter of fiscal 2023 increased 8.6% compared to 2022. In addition, the Company implemented a menu price increase of approximately 2.2% in late March.
Management reiterated the following expectations for 2023:
| · | Positive comparable restaurant sales growth including the benefit of menu pricing actions; |
| · | 25 to 30 Texas Roadhouse and Bubba’s 33 company restaurant openings; |
| · | Store week growth of at least 6% including the impact of the franchise locations acquired; |
| · | Commodity cost inflation of 5% to 6%; |
| · | Wage and other labor inflation of 5% to 6%; |
| · | An effective income tax rate of approximately 14% excluding the impact of any legislative changes enacted; and, |
| · | Total capital expenditures of approximately $265 million. |
Non-GAAP Measures
The Company prepares the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Within the press release, the Company makes reference to restaurant margin (in dollars and as a percentage of restaurant and other sales). Restaurant margin represents restaurant and other sales less restaurant-level operating costs, including food and beverage costs, labor, rent and other operating costs. Restaurant margin also includes sales and operating costs related to the Company’s non-royalty based retail initiatives. Restaurant margin should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative, to income from operations. This non-GAAP measure is not indicative of overall company performance and profitability in that this measure does not accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders due to the nature of the costs excluded. Restaurant margin is widely regarded as a useful metric by which to evaluate core restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis. In calculating restaurant margin, the Company excludes certain non-restaurant-level costs that support operations, including general and administrative expenses, but do not have a direct impact on restaurant-level operational efficiency and performance. The Company also excludes pre-opening expense as it occurs at irregular intervals and would impact comparability to prior period results. The Company also excludes depreciation and amortization expense, substantially all of which relates to restaurant-level assets, as it represents a non-cash charge for the investment in restaurants. The Company also excludes impairment and closure expense as it believes this provides a clearer perspective of ongoing operating performance and a more useful comparison to prior period results. Restaurant margin as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in the industry. A reconciliation of income from operations to restaurant margin is included in the accompanying financial tables.
