Internationally, we maintained our strong sales momentum by rolling out innovative new products and accelerating net restaurant growth. Furthermore, we strengthened our global new restaurant pipeline to position ourselves for sustained growth in the months to come. We look forward to working closely with our world-class franchisees and partners to make 2014 another successful year for the BURGER KING® brand.”

System-wide sales grew 6.9% in the first quarter, driven by comparable sales growth across all four regions and unit growth of 676 net new restaurants over the trailing twelve month (“TTM”) period, a 44.8% year-over-year increase compared to the first quarter of 2013.

Total reported revenues of $240.9 million declined (26.5%) from the prior year primarily due to the net refranchising of 327 company-owned restaurants over the TTM period. On an organic basis, excluding the impact of these global refranchising transactions and currency movements, revenue increased 6.2% year-over-year due to net restaurant growth and global comparable sales growth.

Adjusted EBITDA of $159.7 million grew 12.5% from the prior year on an organic basis, excluding the impact of refranchising transactions and currency movements, driven by double-digit organic Adjusted EBITDA growth in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (“EMEA”), Latin America and the Caribbean (“LAC”), and Asia Pacific (“APAC”).

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS increased 20.0% and 19.3%, respectively, compared to the prior year, due to an increase in Adjusted EBITDA partially offset by higher share-based compensation expense, higher interest expense, and higher income tax expense.

Operational and Segment Highlights

Despite severe winter weather across much of the region, U.S. and Canada delivered slightly positive comparable sales growth in the first quarter as a result of our strategy of launching fewer, more impactful products. The continued success of the BIG KING™ sandwich and the introduction of our all-new Spicy Original Chicken Sandwich helped drive sales and traffic during the quarter. We also focused on delivering

attractive value at the $1 price point with the launch of our KING DEALS® value menu that featured all-new products such as the Rodeo Chicken sandwich and Rodeo burger. In March, the KING DEALS® menu was further expanded to include breakfast value items, which helped to grow traffic during the morning daypart. Going forward, we remain focused on further driving franchise profitability through ongoing initiatives to simplify our menu and in-restaurant operations.

EMEA continued to deliver strong results in Q1 with comparable sales growth of 4.8%, the thirteenth consecutive quarter of comparable sales growth in the region. Performance was primarily driven by continued strength in Germany, where premium limited time offerings (“LTOs”) such as the Steakhouse Gold Collection complemented the Trial Weeks value platform. In the United Kingdom, the King of the Day and KING SAVERS™ value menus helped boost traffic. We were also excited to roll out SATISFRIES™ across major European markets so that our guests could sample our first-of-its-kind better-for-you French fry. EMEA system-wide sales growth of 14.6% was primarily attributable to 340 net new restaurant openings over the TTM period.

LAC posted comparable sales growth of 4.0% in Q1, primarily due to strength in Brazil where new products such as the premium Picanha Steakhouse burger and the Double Cheddar burger resonated well with our guests. LAC system-wide sales growth of 17.1% included the positive impact of 156 TTM net new restaurant openings.

APAC comparable sales increased by 3.8% during the first quarter, the sixth consecutive quarter of comparable sales growth in the region. Growth was primarily driven by Australia, where we recently launched the Tropical WHOPPER® sandwich, and South Korea, where the Philly Steak LTO complemented our popular value menus. China also continued to perform well with a balanced mix of premium products such as the Italian Stackers LTO and attractive value offerings. APAC system-wide sales growth of 15.0% was primarily driven by 235 TTM net new restaurant openings.

Cash and Liquidity

As of quarter end, total debt was $3.0 billion and net debt was $2.2 billion. Our cash balance increased $76.2 million in the first quarter after paying down $19.1 million of debt and paying out $24.6 million in dividends. This increase in cash in conjunction with a $14.7 million year-over-year increase in Adjusted EBITDA caused the net debt to TTM Adjusted EBITDA ratio to decline (0.2x) to 3.2x.

On April 24, 2014, the company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.07 per share for the second quarter. The dividend is payable on May 27, 2014, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 12, 2014. Future dividends will be determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Investor Conference Call

The company will host an investor conference call and webcast at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time, Friday, April 25, 2014, to review financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The earnings call will be broadcast live via the company’s investor relations website at http://investor.bk.com and a replay will be available for 30 days following the release.

Key Business Metrics

We evaluate our restaurants and assess our business based on the following operating metrics.

System sales growth refers to the change in sales at all company-owned and franchise restaurants in one period from the same period in the prior year. Comparable sales growth refers to the change in restaurant sales in one period from the same prior year period for restaurants that have been open for thirteen months or longer. Company-owned restaurants refranchised during a quarterly period are included with franchise restaurants for the purpose of calculating comparable sales growth for the quarter. Comparable sales and sales growth are measured on a constant currency basis, which means that results exclude the effect of foreign currency translation and are calculated by translating current year results at prior year exchange rates. We analyze key operating metrics on a constant currency basis as this helps identify underlying business trends, without distortion from the effects of currency movements (“FX Impact”).

Franchise sales represent sales at all franchise restaurants and are revenues to our franchisees. We do not record franchise sales as revenues; however, our franchise revenues include royalties based on a percentage of franchise sales. Net refranchisings refer to sales of company-owned restaurants to franchisees, net of acquisitions of franchise restaurants by us.

BURGER KING WORLDWIDE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Unaudited)

To supplement its condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) basis, the Company reports the following non-GAAP financial measures: EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, net debt, TTM Adjusted EBITDA, net debt to TTM Adjusted EBITDA ratio, Organic revenue growth and Organic Adjusted EBITDA growth.

EBITDA is defined as earnings (net income or loss) before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization and is used by management to measure operating performance of the business.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the impact of share-based compensation and non-cash incentive compensation expense, other operating (income) expenses, net, and all other specifically identified costs associated with non-recurring projects, including global portfolio realignment project costs. Share-based compensation and non-cash incentive compensation expense for the 2014 periods have been adjusted to be comparable to the 2013 presentation to reflect the portion of annual non-cash incentive compensation that eligible employees elected to receive as common equity in lieu of their 2013 cash bonus. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to measure operating performance of the business, excluding specifically identified items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations, and represents our measure of segment income.

Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income excluding the impact of those same items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing Adjusted Net Income by the number of diluted shares of the Company during the reporting period. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS are used by management to evaluate the core operating performance of the business. Net debt to TTM Adjusted EBITDA ratio is used by management to evaluate the Company’s current and prospective financial position.

Organic revenue growth and Organic Adjusted EBITDA growth are non-GAAP measures that exclude both FX Impact and net refranchisings. Management believes that organic growth is an important metric for measuring the core operating performance of the business as it excludes the impact of our refranchising activities and foreign currency exchange rates.
