Items Affecting Comparability

The Company’s reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2011 are not comparable to the reported financial results for the equivalent prior-year periods. The table below presents certain items that affect comparability between 2011 and 2010 financial results. Management believes that including such information is critical to the understanding of its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2011 as compared to the same periods in 2010 (See the Comments on Non-GAAP Measures section).

In addition to the items noted in the table below, the Company experienced lower interest expense primarily as a result of lower debt levels, further impacting comparability to the prior year periods. Lower interest expense resulted in an increase in diluted EPS of approximately one cent in the fourth quarter of 2011 and four cents in fiscal 2011 versus the comparable periods in 2010.

Long Range Outlook

The Company does not provide quarterly or annual earnings estimates. The following long range outlook does not constitute specific earnings guidance, but management believes these ranges to be appropriate and achievable over the long term. Management noted that it had recently increased portions of this long range outlook as noted below:

Liquidity

As of January 1, 2012, the Company had approximately:

The Company’s cash borrowing rate averaged 5.9% for both the fourth quarter and fiscal 2011. It invested $24.3 million in capital expenditures during fiscal 2011 versus $25.4 million in fiscal 2010.

Comments on Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, the Company has included non-GAAP financial measures relative to items affecting comparability between fiscal quarters. Additionally, the Company has included metrics such as global retail sales growth and same store sales growth, which are commonly used statistical measures in the quick-service restaurant industry and are important to understanding Company performance.

The Company uses “Diluted EPS, as adjusted,” which is calculated as reported Diluted EPS adjusted for the items that affect comparability to the prior year periods discussed above. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP is Diluted EPS. The Company’s management believes that the Diluted EPS, as adjusted, measure is important and useful to investors and other interested persons and that such persons benefit from having a consistent basis for comparison between reporting periods. Management uses Diluted EPS, as adjusted, to internally evaluate operating performance, to evaluate itself against its peers and to determine future performance targets and long-range planning. Additionally, the Company believes that analysts covering the Company’s stock performance generally eliminate these items affecting comparability when preparing their financial models, when determining their published EPS estimates and when benchmarking the Company against its competitors.

The Company uses “Global retail sales” to refer to total worldwide retail sales at Company-owned and franchise stores. Management believes global retail sales information is useful in analyzing revenues because franchisees pay royalties that are based on a percentage of franchise retail sales. Management reviews comparable industry global retail sales information to assess business trends and to track the growth of the Domino’s Pizza^® brand. In addition, domestic supply chain revenues are directly impacted by changes in domestic franchise retail sales. Retail sales for franchise stores are reported to the Company by its franchisees and are not included in Company revenues.

The Company uses “Same store sales growth,” calculated by including only sales from stores that also had sales in the comparable period of the prior year. International same store sales growth is calculated similarly to domestic same store sales growth. Changes in international same store sales are reported on a constant dollar basis, which reflects changes in international local currency sales.

The Company uses “Free cash flow,” calculated as cash flows from operations less capital expenditures, both as reported under GAAP. Management believes that the free cash flow measure is important to investors and other interested persons, and that such persons benefit from having a measure which communicates how much cash flow is available for working capital needs or to be used for repurchasing debt, making acquisitions, repurchasing common stock, paying dividends or other similar uses of cash.
