We maintain an unfunded defined contribution plan for key executives and other members of management. The fair value of this obligation is based on the closing market prices of the participants’ elected investments.
|
(2)
|
We entered into interest rate swaps to reduce our exposure to rising interest rates on our variable rate debt. The fair values of our interest rate swaps are based upon Level 2 inputs which include valuation models as reported by our counterparties. The key inputs for the valuation models are quoted market prices, discount rates and forward yield curves.
|

|
We did not have any transfers in or out of Level 1, 2 or 3.

Adjustments relate primarily to revisions of certain sublease and cost assumptions. Our estimates related to our future lease obligations, primarily the sublease income we anticipate, are subject to a high degree of judgment and may differ from actual sublease income due to changes in economic conditions, desirability of the sites and other factors.

The weighted average remaining lease term related to these commitments is approximately

years.

This balance excludes

ITEM 2.
|
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
•
|
Overview
— a general description of our business and
2017
highlights.
|
•
|
Financial reporting
— a discussion of changes in presentation, if any.
|
•
|
Results of operations
— an analysis of our condensed consolidated statements of earnings for the periods presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
|
•
|
Liquidity and capital resources
— an analysis of our cash flows including pension and postretirement health contributions, capital expenditures, sale of company-operated restaurants, our credit facility, share repurchase activity, dividends, known trends that may impact liquidity and the impact of inflation, if applicable.
|
•
|
Discussion of critical accounting estimates
— a discussion of accounting policies that require critical judgments and estimates.
|
•
|
New accounting pronouncements
— a discussion of new accounting pronouncements, dates of implementation and the impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations, if any.
|
•
|
Cautionary statements regarding forward-looking statements
— a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements made by management.
|
•
|
Calendar Basis Same-Store Sales
—
Calendar basis same-store sales increased
0.9%
year-to-date at Jack in the Box system restaurants compared with a year ago primarily driven by an increase in franchise restaurant AUVs. Qdoba’s year-to-date calendar basis same-store sales decreased
2.7%
at company-operated restaurants compared with a year ago, driven primarily by declines in traffic, partially offset by catering growth and an increase in the average check.
|
•
|
Commodity Costs
—
Commodity costs decreased approximately
1.1%
and
0.4%
year-to-date at our Jack in the Box and Qdoba restaurants, respectively, in
2017
compared with a year ago. We expect our overall commodity costs in fiscal year 2017 to be approximately flat at both our Jack in the Box and Qdoba restaurants. Beef represents the largest portion, or approximately 20%, of the Company’s overall commodity spend. We typically do not enter into fixed price contracts for our beef needs. For the full year, we currently expect beef costs to decrease approximately 1%.
|
•
|
Company Restaurant Operations
—
Consolidated company restaurant costs as a percentage of company restaurant sales increased in 2017 to
81.9%
from
79.7%
a year ago. Jack in the Box company restaurant costs as a percentage of company restaurant sales increased to
79.6%
from
78.7%
a year ago primarily due to sales deleverage, higher labor costs related to wage inflation, and higher maintenance and repair costs, partially offset by the impact from refranchising completed year-to-date in 2017. Restaurant costs as a percentage of restaurant sales at our Qdoba company-operated restaurants increased in 2017 to
85.7%
from
81.6%
a year ago primarily reflecting sales deleverage, an increase in food costs resulting from unfavorable mix, and new restaurant activity, partially offset by lower costs for insurance.
|
•
|
Jack in the Box Franchise Operations
—
Franchise costs as a percent of franchise revenues decreased in 2017 to
47.1%
, from
48.8%
in the prior year, primarily driven by an increase in franchise fees resulting from the sale of 118 company-operated restaurants to franchisees, and a decrease in franchise support costs primarily due to savings realized in connection with our restructuring plan.
|
•
|
Jack in the Box Franchising Program
—
Franchisees opened a total of
15
restaurants. As part of our refranchising strategy, we sold
118
company-operated restaurants to franchisees in several different markets during 2017 resulting in proceeds of approximately
$62.9 million
. In fiscal year
2017
, we expect to open approximately
20 to 25
Jack in the Box restaurants system-wide, the majority of which will be franchise locations. Our Jack in the Box system was
85%
franchised as of
July 9, 2017
. We plan to increase franchise ownership of the Jack in the Box system to over 90%. Prior to the end of the third quarter, we additionally signed non-binding letters of intent with franchisees to sell 63 company-operated restaurants in several markets. Pre-tax gross proceeds related to these sales are estimated at $35.0 million to $40.0 million, and we have classified $10.6 million of equipment related to these sales as assets held for sale in our July 9, 2017 condensed consolidated balance sheet.
|
•
|
Jack in the Box Acquisition of Franchise-Operated Restaurants
—
We acquired
50
franchise-operated Jack in the Box restaurants from two franchisees for total consideration of
$14.3 million
in two non-cash transactions. In the third quarter of 2017, we took back 31 restaurants as the result of an agreement with an underperforming franchisee who voluntarily agreed to turn over the restaurants. The additional 19 restaurants acquired in 2017 were the result of a legal action filed in September 2013 against a franchisee in which we obtained a judgment in January 2017 granting the Company possession of the restaurants.
|
•
|
Qdoba New Unit Growth
—
We opened
18
company-operated restaurants, and franchisees opened
13
restaurants of which nine were in non-traditional locations such as military bases and college campuses. In fiscal
2017
, we expect approximately 45 Qdoba restaurants to open system-wide, of which
25
are expected to be company-operated restaurants.
|
•
|
Restructuring Costs (including costs related to the Qdoba Evaluation)
—
In 2016, we announced a plan to reduce our general and administrative costs, and in the third quarter of 2017, we began an evaluation of potential alternatives with respect to the Qdoba brand. In connection with these activities, we have recorded
$6.1 million
of restructuring charges in 2017, which includes $1.7 million related to the Qdoba Evaluation, which are included in impairment and other costs, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings.
|
•
|
Return of Cash to Shareholders
—
We returned cash to shareholders in the form of share repurchases and cash dividends. We repurchased
3.2 million
shares of our common stock in 2017 at an average price of $
101.59
per share, totaling
$327.2 million
, including the costs of brokerage fees. We also declared three cash dividends of $0.40 per share totaling
$37.4 million
.

|
Food service businesses such as ours may be materially and adversely affected by changes in consumer preferences or dining habits, and economic, political and socioeconomic conditions. Adverse economic conditions such as unemployment and decreased discretionary spending may result in reduced restaurant traffic and sales, and impose practical limits on pricing. We are also subject to geographic concentration risks, with nearly 70% of system Jack in the Box restaurants located in California and Texas.
|
•
|
Our profitability depends in part on food and commodity costs and availability, including animal feed costs, fuel costs, and other supply and distribution costs. The risks of increased commodities costs and volatility in costs could adversely affect our profitability and results of operations.
|
•
|
The success of our business strategy depends on the value and relevance of our brands. Multi-unit food service businesses such as ours can be materially and adversely affected by widespread negative publicity of any type, particularly regarding food quality, food safety or public health issues. Negative publicity regarding our brands or the restaurant industry in general could cause a decline in system restaurant sales and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
|
•
|
We are reliant on third party suppliers and distributors, and any shortages or interruptions in supply could adversely affect the availability, quality and cost of ingredients.
|
•
|
Our business can be materially and adversely affected by severe weather conditions or natural disasters, which can result in lost restaurant sales, supply chain interruptions and increased costs.
|
•
|
Growth and new restaurant development involve substantial risks, including risks associated with unavailability of suitable franchisees, limited financing availability, cost overruns and the inability to secure suitable sites on acceptable terms. In addition, our growth strategy includes opening restaurants in new or existing markets where we cannot assure that we will be able to successfully expand or acquire critical market presence, attract customers or otherwise operate profitably.
|
•
|
There are risks associated with our franchise business model, including the demand for our franchises, the selection of appropriate franchisees and whether our franchisees and new restaurant developers will have the capabilities to be effective operators and remain aligned with us on operating, promotional and capital-intensive initiatives, in an ever-changing competitive environment. Additionally, our franchisees and operators could experience operational, financial or other challenges that could affect payments to us of rents and/or royalties, or could damage our brands and reputation.
|
•
|
Our plan to increase the percentage of Jack in the Box franchise restaurants to over 90% is subject to risks and uncertainties, and we may not achieve the level or the accompanying cost reductions that we desire. We may not be able to identify franchisee candidates with appropriate experience and financial resources or to negotiate mutually acceptable agreements with potential franchisees. Our franchisee candidates may not be able to obtain financing at acceptable rates and terms. We may not be able to increase the percentage of franchised restaurants at the rate we desire or achieve the ownership mix of franchise to company-operated restaurants that we desire.
|
•
|
The restaurant and take-away food industry is highly competitive with respect to price, service, location, brand identification, menu quality and product and service innovation. We cannot assure that we will be able to effectively respond to aggressive competitors (including competitors with significantly greater financial resources); or that our competitive strategies will increase our same-store sales and AUVs; or that our new products, service initiatives, overall strategies or execution of those strategies will be successful.
|
•
|
Should our advertising and promotions be less effective than our competitors, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
|
•
|
In recent years, we have identified strategies and taken steps to reduce operating costs to align with the increased Jack in the Box franchise ownership and to further integrate Jack in the Box and Qdoba brand systems. The ability to evaluate, identify and implement operating cost reductions through these initiatives is subject to risks and uncertainties, and we cannot assure that these activities, or any other activities that we may undertake in the future, will achieve the desired cost savings and efficiencies.
|
•
|
While we have commenced an evaluation of potential alternatives with respect to the Qdoba brand, there can be no assurance that our evaluation will result in a definitive action. In the event that we do proceed with a potential alternative action with respect to the Qdoba brand, there is no guarantee that such action will be successful.
|
•
|
The loss of key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business.
|
•
|
The costs of compliance with government regulations, including those resulting in increased labor costs, could negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition.
|
•
|
A material failure or interruption of service or a breach in security of our information technology systems, point of sale (“POS”) systems, or databases could cause reduced efficiency in operations, loss or misappropriation of data or, loss of consumer confidence and/or potential costs, fines and litigation, including costs associated with reputation damage, consumer fraud, privacy breach, or business interruptions, which in turn could affect cash flows or our operating results. In addition, the costs of information security, regulatory compliance, investment in technology and risk mitigation measures may negatively affect our financial results.
|
•
|
We maintain a documented system of internal controls over financial reporting, which is reviewed and monitored by an Internal Controls Committee and tested by the Company’s full-time internal audit department. Any failures in the effectiveness of our internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations.
|
•
|
We are subject to risks of owning, operating and leasing property, including but not limited to environmental risks. Any of this could result in the imposition of severe penalties or restrictions on operations by governmental agencies or courts of law, which could adversely affect operations.
|
•
|
We have a significant amount of indebtedness, which could adversely affect our business and our ability to meet our obligations. Our ability to repay borrowings under our credit facility and to meet our other debt or contractual obligations will depend upon our future performance and our cash flows from operations, both of which are subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other known and unknown risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond our control.
|
•
|
Changes in accounting standards, policies or related interpretations by accountants or regulatory entities may negatively impact our results.
|
•
|
We are subject to litigation which is inherently unpredictable and can result in unfavorable resolutions where the amount of ultimate loss may exceed our estimated loss contingencies, impose other costs related to defense of claims, or occupy management’s time.
