Restaurant margin dollars increased 3.4% to $145.6 million from $140.8 million in the prior year primarily due to higher sales; |
| · | Diluted earnings per share increased 17.4% primarily driven by higher restaurant margin dollars and lower general and administrative expenses. Diluted earnings per share also benefitted from increased share repurchases that occurred in the first half of 2022; and, |
| · | 10 company restaurants and two international franchise restaurants were opened. |
Results for the year-to-date period, as compared to the prior year as applicable, included the following:

Restaurant margin dollars increased 7.9% to $627.5 million from $581.7 million in the prior year primarily due to higher sales; |
| · | Diluted earnings per share increased 13.5% primarily driven by higher restaurant margin dollars partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization expense. Diluted earnings per share also benefitted from increased share repurchases in the first half of 2022; |
| · | 23 company restaurants and seven international franchise restaurants were opened. In addition, the Company acquired eight domestic franchise restaurants; and, |
| · | The Company repurchased 2,734,005 shares of common stock for $212.9 million. |
Jerry Morgan, Chief Executive Officer of Texas Roadhouse, Inc. commented, “We had another record year in 2022, highlighted by over $4 billion in revenue and double-digit bottom line growth in spite of significant cost pressures. I am extremely proud of our operators who continue to drive sales and consistently deliver on our legendary promise.”
Morgan continued, “As we celebrate our 30th anniversary this month, our focus will be on what got us here—providing our guests a legendary experience in all 700 of our restaurants each and every shift. We are excited about our continued growth in 2023, which includes the potential to open a record number of systemwide locations across all of our brands. We are confident this growth, along with our ability to allocate capital for the benefit of our shareholders, will continue to create long term value.”
Franchise acquisitions
On December 28, 2022, the first day of the 2023 fiscal year, the Company completed the acquisition of eight domestic franchise restaurants for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $39.0 million.
2023 Outlook
Comparable restaurant sales at company restaurants for the first seven weeks of our first quarter of fiscal 2023 increased 15.8% compared to 2022. In addition, the Company plans to implement a menu price increase of approximately 2.2% in late March.
Management updated the following expectations for 2023:
| · | Store week growth of at least 6% including the impact of the franchise locations acquired; |
| · | 25 to 30 Texas Roadhouse and Bubba’s 33 company restaurant openings; and, |
| · | An effective income tax rate of approximately 14% excluding the impact of any legislative changes enacted. |
Management reiterated the following expectations for 2023:
| · | Positive comparable restaurant sales growth including the benefit of 2022 menu pricing actions; |
| · | Commodity cost inflation of 5% to 6%; |
| · | Wage and other labor inflation of 5% to 6%; and, |
| · | Total capital expenditures of approximately $265 million. |
Cash Dividend Payment
On February 14, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the payment of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.55 per share of common stock. This payment, which represents a 20% increase from the quarterly cash dividend authorized in 2022, will be distributed on March 24, 2023, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 8, 2023.
Non-GAAP Measures
The Company prepares the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Within the press release, the Company makes reference to restaurant margin (in dollars and as a percentage of restaurant and other sales). Restaurant margin represents restaurant and other sales less restaurant-level operating costs, including food and beverage costs, labor, rent and other operating costs. Restaurant margin also includes sales and operating costs related to the Company’s non-royalty based retail initiatives. Restaurant margin should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative, to income from operations. This non-GAAP measure is not indicative of overall company performance and profitability in that this measure does not accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders due to the nature of the costs excluded. Restaurant margin is widely regarded as a useful metric by which to evaluate core restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis. In calculating restaurant margin, the Company excludes certain non-restaurant-level costs that support operations, including general and administrative expenses, but do not have a direct impact on restaurant-level operational efficiency and performance. The Company also excludes pre-opening expense as it occurs at irregular intervals and would impact comparability to prior period results. The Company also excludes depreciation and amortization expense, substantially all of which relates to restaurant-level assets, as it represents a non-cash charge for the investment in restaurants. The Company also excludes impairment and closure expense as it believes this provides a clearer perspective of ongoing operating performance and a more useful comparison to prior period results. Restaurant margin as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in the industry. A reconciliation of income from operations to restaurant margin is included in the accompanying financial tables.
