CRACKER BARREL REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR FISCAL 2016 RESULTS
AND PROVIDES GUIDANCE FOR FISCAL 2017
Fourth Quarter Comparable Store Restaurant Sales and Retail Sales Exceeded 3% Growth
Fourth Quarter Earnings per Diluted Share Increased 7.6% to $2.12
LEBANON, Tenn. September 14, 2016 Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. (Cracker Barrel or the Company) (Nasdaq: CBRL) today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and for the fiscal year ended July 29, 2016. The Company also provided guidance for its 2017 fiscal year and first quarter:
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2016 Highlights
| Compared to the prior year fourth quarter, comparable store restaurant sales increased 3.2%, marking the Companys largest quarterly outperformance relative to the casual dining industry in fiscal 2016; comparable store retail sales increased 3.5%. |
| Operating income as a percent of total revenue increased 30 basis points to 10.4%. |
| Earnings per diluted share were $2.12 compared to diluted EPS of $1.97 in the prior year quarter. |
Full Year Fiscal 2016 Highlights
| Comparable store restaurant sales increased 2.2% and comparable store retail sales increased 2.7%. |
| Operating income was 9.6% of total revenue, compared to GAAP operating income margin of 9.0% in the prior year, or 9.1% in the prior year when adjusted to exclude the impact of a prior year litigation matter (See non-GAAP reconciliation below). |
| On a GAAP basis, earnings per diluted share for fiscal 2016 were $7.86 versus $6.82 in the prior fiscal year. Results for the current and prior year each reflect the retroactive reinstatement of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC). Adjusting for these WOTC impacts, the current year impact of a reduction of the provisions for uncertain tax positions, and a prior year litigation matter, adjusted earnings per diluted share in the current year were $7.55 compared to $6.82 in the prior year. |
| During fiscal 2016, the Company declared regular quarterly dividends totaling $4.45 per share. Additionally, the Company declared a special dividend of $3.25 per share, bringing the total dividends declared in fiscal 2016 to $7.70 per share. |

Fiscal 2017 Outlook
For fiscal 2017, the Company expects total revenue of between $2.95 billion and $3.00 billion, and earnings per diluted share of between $7.95 and $8.10. The increased revenue projection for fiscal 2017 reflects the expected opening of seven or eight new Cracker Barrel stores, and projected increases in comparable store restaurant sales and retail sales in a range of 1.0% to 2.0%. The Company projects food commodity deflation in the range of 2.0% to 3.0% for the year. The Company projects an operating income margin of between 9.5% and 10.0% of total revenue for fiscal 2017. The Company expects depreciation expense between $85 million and $87 million; net interest expense of approximately $15 million; and capital expenditures of approximately $125 million. The Company anticipates an effective tax rate for fiscal 2017 of between 31% and 33%.
The Company expects to report earnings per diluted share for the first quarter of 2017 of between $1.75 and $1.85. The Company reminds investors that its outlook for fiscal 2017 reflects a number of assumptions, many of which are outside the Companys control.

Cracker Barrel Reports Fourth Quarter Results
Page 9
September 14, 2016
CRACKER BARREL OLD COUNTRY STORE, INC.
Reconciliation of GAAP basis operating
results to adjusted non-GAAP operating results
(Unaudited and in thousands)
In the accompanying press release the Company makes reference to As Adjusted general and administrative expenses, operating income, provision for taxes and net income per share before the impact of a reduction of the provisions for uncertain tax positions, the retroactive reinstatement of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit and the prior year Fair Labor Standards Act litigation. 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 Companys ongoing operating performance while improving comparability to prior periods, and, as such may provide investors with an enhanced understanding of the Companys 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.
