Fourth-Quarter Fiscal 2012 Results
Revenue
Comparable store restaurant traffic, average check and comparable store restaurant and retail sales for the fiscal months of May, June and July and the fourth quarter were as follows:
| May | June | July | Fourth Quarter | |||||||||||
| Comparable restaurant traffic |
0.3 | % | 0.5 | % | 2.8 | % | 1.4% | |||||||
| Average check |
2.1 | % | 2.2 | % | 2.6 | % | 2.4% | |||||||
| Comparable restaurant sales |
2.4 | % | 2.7 | % | 5.4 | % | 3.8% | |||||||
| Comparable retail sales |
3.3 | % | 2.6 | % | 3.3 | % | 3.1% | |||||||
Fiscal July was a six-week month. For the purposes of calculating comparable store traffic, check and sales, the sixth week of the month is compared to the comparable week in the 2012 fiscal year.
Operating Income
Operating income in the fourth quarter was $59.9 million, or 8.6% of total revenue, compared with 6.2% in the prior year quarter. Adjusted for the impact of the extra week, fourth quarter operating income was 7.7% of total revenue, compared with adjusted operating income in the prior year quarter of 6.7% of total revenue. This one hundred basis point improvement in adjusted operating income margin in the quarter was due primarily to management’s continued focus on lowering cost of goods sold and other store operating expenses as a percent of revenues.
Fiscal 2012 Results
Total revenue for fiscal 2012 was $2.58 billion. Adjusted for the 53rd week, total revenue increased 3.9% compared to the prior fiscal year. Full year comparable store restaurant sales increased 2.2% on approximately flat traffic. Comparable store retail sales increased 1.6%, and total retail sales were 20.4% of total revenue, compared to 20.6% in the prior fiscal year.
Operating income for fiscal 2012 was $191.0 million, or 7.4% of sales, compared to $167.2 million, or 6.9% of sales, in the prior year. Adjusted for the impact of the 53rd week, severance charges and proxy contest expenses, operating income for the year was $188.1 million, or 7.4% of sales. In comparison, adjusted operating income in the prior fiscal year was $168.5 million, or 6.9% of sales.
Net income was $103.1 million, or $4.40 per diluted share, compared to $85.2 million, or $3.61 per diluted share. Adjusted for the impact of the 53rd week and charges related to severance expenses and the proxy contest, net income was $101.6 million, or $4.34 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $90.0 million, or $3.81 per diluted share, representing a year-over-year increase in adjusted EPS of 13.9%.

Net cash flow provided by operating activities was $219.8 million, compared with $138.2 million in the prior fiscal year. During fiscal 2012, capital expenditures were $80.2 million, and the Company repurchased 265,538 shares of stock for a total of $14.9 million, paid down $25.1 million of debt, and paid $22.4 million in dividends.
Commenting on the fourth quarter and full fiscal year results, Cracker Barrel President and Chief Executive Officer Sandra B. Cochran said, “The strong results of the quarter reflect the consistent focus and execution by our management team and employees on our strategic plan. Despite an uncertain economic backdrop, over the course of the year we continued to make tangible, measurable improvement on the six business priorities that we initiated in the first quarter. Broad-based enhancements to our core business generated increases in revenue and earnings per share. Specifically in the fourth quarter, we believe our national advertising, menu development, and strong execution from the operations team worked together to drive our third consecutive quarter of positive traffic, sales and profit.”
Fiscal 2013 Outlook
For fiscal 2013, the Company expects total revenue of between $2.6 billion and $2.65 billion and earnings per diluted share of between $4.50 and $4.70. The increased revenue projection for fiscal 2013 reflects the expected opening of 12 new Cracker Barrel stores and projected increases in comparable store restaurant and retail sales in a range of 2.0% to 3.0%. Despite expectations for increases in food commodity costs of between 5.0% and 6.0% for the year, the Company projects an operating income margin of between 7.3% and 7.5% of revenues. The Company expects depreciation expense of between $66 million and $68 million, net interest expense of between $36 million and $38 million, and an effective tax rate of between 32% and 33%. The Company expects capital expenditures during fiscal 2013 to be between $90 million and $100 million.
The Company expects to report earnings per diluted share for the first quarter of 2013 of between $1.00 and $1.05. As previously disclosed, results for the first quarter of 2012 included the benefit of a litigation settlement and an actuarial adjustment to workers compensation reserves. The Company also noted that its guidance does not include expenses related to a potential proxy contest at its annual shareholders’ meeting on November 15, 2012 or severance or other charges related to any organizational changes. The Company reminds investors that its outlook for fiscal 2013 reflects a number of assumptions, many of which are outside the Company’s control.
Dividend Increase and Share Repurchase Authorization
The Board of Directors recently increased the quarterly dividend to $0.50 per share on the Company’s common stock, payable on November 5, 2012 to shareholders of record as of October 19, 2012. This represents a 25% increase over the Company’s last quarterly dividend of $0.40 and a doubling of the quarterly dividend of $0.25

declared in the first fiscal quarter of 2012. In addition, the Board approved a new share repurchase program for up to $100 million of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The share repurchase authorization, which is effective immediately and replaces the prior, recently expired authorization, permits the Company to effect repurchases from time to time through a combination of open market repurchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase transactions, and/or other derivative transactions.

Reconciliation of GAAP basis operating results
to adjusted non-GAAP operating results
(Unaudited and in thousands)
The Company makes reference in this release to “adjusted revenue”, “adjusted operating income,” “adjusted net income,” “adjusted earnings per diluted share,” and “adjusted general and administrative expenses” before the impact of proxy contest expenses, severance and restructuring charges and the benefit of store dispositions net of an impairment. The Company believes that excluding these items and their related tax effects from its financial results reflects operating results that are more indicative of the Company’s ongoing operating performance while improving comparability to prior periods, and, as such, may provide investors with an enhanced understanding of the Company’s past financial performance and prospects for the future. This information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income, or earnings per share or expense information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
