THE CHEESECAKEFACTORY REPORTS RESULTS FOR
SECOND QUARTEROF FISCAL 2024
CALABASASHILLS, Calif. – JULY 31, 2024 – The Cheesecake Factory Incorporated (NASDAQ: CAKE) today reported financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2024, which ended on July 2, 2024.
Total revenues were $904.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to $866.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023. Net income and diluted net income per share were $52.4 million and $1.08, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
The Company recorded a pre-tax net expense of $1.0 million related to Fox Restaurant Concepts (“FRC”) acquisition-related expenses and impairment of assets and lease termination income. Excluding the after-tax impact of these items, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2024 were $53.2 million and $1.09, respectively. Please see the Company’s reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures at the end of this press release.
Comparable restaurant sales at The Cheesecake Factory restaurants increased 1.4% year-over-year in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
“Building on our first quarter momentum, we delivered solid top- and bottom-line results in the second quarter contributing to a strong performance in the first half of the year,” said David Overton, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our second quarter revenue finished towards the higher end of our expectations, and we generated robust earnings growth with profit margins exceeding the high end of our expectations. Our second quarter results were led by the strength of The Cheesecake Factory restaurants. The resilient consumer demand for the distinct, high-quality dining experiences we provide our guests and brand affinity for our namesake concept has been pivotal in supporting our continued outperformance of the broader casual dining industry. Our operators drove solid operational execution within our restaurants to deliver year-over-year improvements in labor productivity and hourly staff and manager retention.”
“We opened five new restaurants across various concepts and markets during the second quarter. The strong demand and sales performance at our new restaurant openings underscores the broad appeal of our experiential concepts. With 11 restaurants opened as of today, we are well-positioned to meet our development objective to open as many as 22 new restaurants in 2024. Most importantly, following three consecutive quarters of stable topline revenue, strong operational execution and significant profitability growth, we generated the consistent results that The Cheesecake Factory has long been known for.”

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Resultsto GAAP Results
In addition to the results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in this press release, the Company is providing non-GAAP measurements which present net income and net income per share excluding the impact of certain items. The non-GAAP measurements are intended to supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are calculated by eliminating from net income and diluted net income per share the impact of items the Company does not consider indicative of its ongoing operations. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons.
