Operating Income
In the second quarter of fiscal 2012, adjusted operating income was $50.6 million, or 7.5% of total revenue, compared with operating income of $52.5 million, or 8.2% of total revenue, in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. On a GAAP basis, which includes proxy contest expenses, operating income was $47.3 million, or 7.0% of total revenue. The decrease in adjusted operating income was primarily the result of higher food commodity costs and the timing of advertising expenses, partially offset by lower hourly wages, maintenance and utilities expenses. Adjusted general and administrative expenses were 4.9% of total revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 compared with 5.2% in the prior year quarter. On a GAAP basis, general and administrative expenses were 5.4% of total revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2012.
“Driven by our strong sales and traffic performance, particularly in January, our financial results for the second quarter exceeded our expectations,” said Sandra B. Cochran, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. “Comparable store traffic and sales outperformed the Knapp-Track™ Index for the quarter, and we are pleased to report positive traffic for the first time in the past five quarters. We continued to control our expenses, and we are seeing the expected benefits from our cost reduction initiatives. Our diluted earnings per share, adjusted for proxy contest expenses, were in line with the prior year quarter, despite the change in our marketing strategy and resulting change in the timing of our advertising spend, and the expected timing of increases in commodity costs.”

Year-to-date Fiscal 2012 Results
Year-to-date through the end of the second quarter, total revenue was $1.3 billion, an increase of 2.6% compared to the prior year period. Comparable store restaurant sales increased 1.0%, including a 2.3% higher check, and comparable store retail sales increased 1.4%.
Year-to-date, the Company reported adjusted net income of $53.1 million or $2.29 per diluted share, compared with net income of $52.5 million, or $2.21 per diluted share in the prior year period. On a GAAP basis, year-to-date net income was $49.4 million or $2.13 per diluted share. Year-to-date net cash flow provided by operating activities was $114.0 million, compared with $57.3 million in the prior year period, due to timing differences in accounts payable payments, estimated income taxes and changes in other assets and liabilities. The Company did not repurchase any shares during the second quarter of fiscal 2012.
A reconciliation of the Company’s financial results determined in accordance with GAAP to certain non-GAAP financial measures used in this release has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this release to supplement its unaudited financial statements presented on a GAAP basis.
Fiscal 2012 Outlook Update
The Company commented that its outlook for fiscal 2012 reflects many assumptions, the accuracy of which is not yet known. Based upon year-to-date financial performance, recent trends and current estimates, the Company has raised its full-year earnings guidance for fiscal 2012. The Company expects total revenue for fiscal 2012 of between $2.55 billion and $2.6 billion, reflecting anticipated increases in comparable store restaurant and retail sales in a range of 1.0% and 2.0%. Due to delayed construction starts on two stores previously scheduled to open late this year, the Company expects to open 13 new Cracker Barrel stores in the current fiscal year rather than the 15 originally planned. The Company now expects to report adjusted earnings per diluted share for the fiscal year of between $4.20 and $4.35, excluding proxy contest expenses of $0.16 per diluted share. On a GAAP basis, the Company expects to report earnings per diluted share for the fiscal year between $4.04 and $4.19. Food commodity costs are expected to increase 5.5% to 6.5% from the prior year, and adjusted operating income margins are expected to range between 7.2% and 7.4% of total revenues.
The Company expects depreciation expense of between $64 million and $66 million; net interest expense of approximately $45 million; an effective tax rate of between 29% and 30%; and capital expenditures of between $85 million and $95 million. The Company reminds investors that its 2012 fiscal year is a 53-week year and that the impact of the 53rd week, which is included in its guidance, is expected to be additional revenue of approximately $50 million and approximately $0.25 of additional earnings per diluted share.

In order to provide additional visibility into its expectations for future performance, the Company provided quarterly earnings guidance for the current quarter. For the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company expects to report earnings per diluted share of between $0.70 and $0.75.
Commenting on the outlook, Ms. Cochran said, “While we continue to remain cautious about the outlook for consumer spending, gasoline prices and commodity costs, we are encouraged by our improving sales trends. We believe that the six strategic initiatives to drive restaurant traffic, grow retail sales and control costs continue to gain traction. We expect to build on this success in the second half of the year.”

(Unaudited and in thousands)
Non-GAAP operating income and earnings per share information adjusted to exclude charges and tax effects of the proxy contest concluded at the Company’s recent annual meeting of shareholders are as summarized in the table below. The Company believes that excluding these charges and 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 overall 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 or earnings per share information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
