NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANICAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
1. | Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements of Sonic Corp. (the “Company”). In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature, including recurring accruals, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented in conformity with GAAP. In certain situations, recurring accruals, including franchise royalties, are based on more limited information at interim reporting dates than at the Company’s fiscal year end due to the abbreviated reporting period. Actual results may differ from these estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2016, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year or any other interim period. The second fiscal quarter is typically the most volatile for the company due to seasonality and weather.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and a number of Company Drive-Ins in which a subsidiary has a controlling ownership interest. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts reported in previous years, which are not material, have been combined and reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation.
Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which requires an entity to recognize revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The standard also requires additional disclosure regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The ASU will replace most of the existing revenue recognition requirements in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. Further, in March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net),” which clarifies the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 for evaluating when another party, along with the entity, is involved in providing a good or service to a customer. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,” which clarifies the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 regarding assessing whether promises to transfer goods or services are distinct, and whether an entity's promise to grant a license provides a customer with a right to use or right to access the entity's intellectual property. In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-20, "Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers," which provides corrections or improvements to issues that affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU No. 2014-09.
The Company plans to adopt the standard in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, which aligns with the required adoption date. The standards are to be applied retrospectively or using a cumulative effect transition method, with early application not permitted. The Company does not believe the new revenue recognition standard will impact the recognition of sales from Company Drive-Ins or the recognition of royalty fees from franchisees. The Company expects the pronouncement will impact the recognition of the initial franchise fee, which is currently recognized upon the opening of a Franchise Drive-In. The impact on these fees has not yet been estimated, and no transition method has been selected. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this pronouncement will have on the recognition of other transactions, the financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases.” The new standard, which replaces existing lease guidance, requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments and a corresponding right-of-use asset. The guidance also requires certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures designed to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Accounting guidance for lessors is largely unchanged. The standard is effective for fiscal year 2020, with early application permitted. This standard requires adoption based upon a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with optional practical expedients. Based on a preliminary assessment, the Company expects that most of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new guidance and recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon adoption, resulting in a significant increase in the assets and liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company is continuing its assessment, which may identify additional impacts this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-04, “Liabilities – Extinguishment of Liabilities: Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products,” which is intended to eliminate current and future diversity in practice related to derecognition of prepaid stored-value product liability in a way that aligns with the new revenue recognition guidance. The update is effective for fiscal year 2019; however, early adoption is permitted. The adoption of the update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” The update was issued to provide more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments. The update replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The update is effective for fiscal year 2021, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The update should be adopted using a modified-retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this update will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” The update is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified and will make eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented in the statement of cash flows. The update is effective for fiscal year 2019. The new standard will require adoption on a retrospective basis unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case the amendments will apply prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this update but does not believe it will have a material impact on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, "Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory" as part of its simplification initiatives. The update requires that an entity recognize the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, rather than deferring the recognition until the asset has been sold to an outside party as is required under current GAAP. The update is effective for fiscal year 2019. The new standard will require adoption on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this update will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows - Restricted Cash." The update requires that restricted cash be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The update is effective for fiscal year 2019. The amendments should be adopted on a retrospective basis to each period presented, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this update will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." To simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill, the update requires only a single-step quantitative test to identify and measure impairment based on the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value. A qualitative assessment may still be completed first for an entity to determine if a quantitative impairment test is necessary. The update is effective for fiscal year 2021 and is to be adopted on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company plans to adopt this standard in fiscal year 2017. The adoption of this standard will have no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

The Company has reviewed all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded they are not applicable or not expected to be significant to our operations.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This update requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a reduction of the related liability rather than as an asset. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by this update. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period, and is to be applied retrospectively; early adoption is permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, which addresses the SEC’s comments related to the absence of authoritative guidance within ASU 2015-03 related to line-of-credit arrangements. The SEC would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line-of-credit arrangement. The Company retrospectively adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, which resulted in a reclassification of unamortized debt issuance costs of $11.3 million related to the Company's fixed rate notes from non-current assets to long-term debt, net, within the Company's consolidated balance sheet, resulting in a corresponding reduction in total assets and total long-term liabilities as of August 31, 2016. Other than this reclassification, the adoption of this ASU did not have any other impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. As of February 28, 2017, there was $10.4 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Company's fixed rate notes included within long-term debt, net on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, “Customer's Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement.” The update provides clarification on whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a software license is included, the customer should account for the license consistent with its accounting of other software licenses. If a software license is not included, the arrangement should be accounted for as a service contract. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company early adopted ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” which simplifies several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including excess tax benefits, an accounting policy election for forfeitures, statutory tax withholding requirements and classification in the statements of cash flows. As required by the update, on a prospective basis, the Company recognized excess tax benefits related to share-based payments in the provision for income taxes in the condensed consolidated statements of income. These items were historically recorded in additional paid-in capital. As allowed by the update, on a prospective basis, cash flows related to excess tax benefits recognized on stock-based compensation expense are classified as an operating activity in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. These prospective changes did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements for the first half of fiscal year 2017. Cash paid on employees’ behalf related to shares withheld for tax purposes continues to be classified as a financing activity. The stock compensation expense continues to reflect estimated forfeitures.

__________________
(1) | Anti-dilutive securities consist of stock options and unvested restricted stock units that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because either the exercise price of the options was greater than the average market price of the common stock or the total assumed proceeds under the treasury stock method resulted in negative incremental shares and thus the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. |
3. | Share Repurchase Program |
In August 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors extended the Company’s share repurchase program, authorizing the Company to purchase up to $145.0 million of its outstanding shares of common stock through August 31, 2016. The Board of Directors further extended the share repurchase program effective May 2016, authorizing the purchase of up to an additional $155.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock through August 31, 2017. During fiscal year 2016, approximately 5.2 million shares were repurchased for a total cost of $148.3 million, resulting in an average price per share of $28.48.
In October 2016, the Company's Board of Directors increased the authorization under the share repurchase program by $40.0 million. During the first six months of fiscal year 2017, approximately 3.7 million shares were repurchased for a total cost of $97.5 million, resulting in an average price per share of $26.21. The total remaining amount authorized under the share repurchase program as of February 28, 2017 was $75.4 million.
Share repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market or otherwise, including through an accelerated share repurchase program, under terms of a Rule 10b5-1 plan, in privately negotiated transactions or in round lot or block transactions. The share repurchase program may be extended, modified, suspended or discontinued at any time.

4. | Income Taxes |
The following table presents the Company’s provision for income taxes and effective income tax rate for the periods below:
| Three months ended | Six months ended | ||||||||||||||
| February 28, 2017 | February 29, 2016 | February 28, 2017 | February 29, 2016 | ||||||||||||
Provision for income taxes | $ | 4,699 | $ | 5,031 | $ | 11,938 | $ | 12,496 | ||||||||
Effective income tax rate | 30.0 | % | 31.7 | % | 33.1 | % | 34.9 | % | ||||||||
The lower effective income tax rate during the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 and for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 was due primarily to the recognition of excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises due to the early adoption of ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” in the first quarter of 2017. Excess tax benefits recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of income were negligible in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 and $0.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 as a component of the provision for income taxes. The early adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 resulted in a favorable effective tax rate impact of 4.7% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2017. Please refer to "Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements" section of note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for details regarding the adoption of this standard. This decrease was partially offset by the favorable impact of the retroactive reinstatement of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016.
5. | Accounts and Notes Receivable |
Accounts and notes receivable consist of the following:
| February 28, 2017 | August 31, 2016 | ||||||
Current Accounts and Notes Receivable: | ||||||||
Royalties and other trade receivables | $ | 15,749 | $ | 19,994 | ||||
Notes receivable from franchisees | 2,717 | 5,531 | ||||||
Receivables from system funds | 2,458 | 4,372 | ||||||
Other | 8,241 | 6,507 | ||||||

Receivables from franchisees | $ | 6,984 | $ | 7,170 | ||||
Receivables from system funds | 3,305 | 5,466 | ||||||
Allowance for doubtful notes receivable | (53 | ) | (74 | ) | ||||
Noncurrent notes receivable, net | $ | 10,236 | $ | 12,562 | ||||
The Company’s receivables are primarily due from franchisees, all of whom are in the restaurant business. Substantially all of the notes receivable from franchisees are collateralized by real estate or equipment. The receivables from system funds represent transactions in the normal course of business. Royalties and other trade receivables have decreased primarily as a result of the seasonality of the business. The decrease in current notes receivable from franchisees is due to short-term financing for refranchised drive-ins and newly constructed drive-ins sold to franchisees that were established in fiscal year 2016 and were repaid in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. The increase in other current accounts and notes receivable is due to the timing of various receipts and disbursements. The decrease in noncurrent receivables from system funds is due to payment on notes extended in fiscal year 2016 related to the establishment of the Brand Technology Fund.

6. | Contingencies |
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings and has certain unresolved claims pending. Based on the information currently available, management believes that all claims currently pending are either covered by insurance or would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results or financial condition.
On December 20, 2013, the Company extended a note purchase agreement to a bank that serves to guarantee the repayment of a franchisee loan, with a term through 2018. In the event of default by the franchisee, the Company would purchase the franchisee loan from the bank, thereby becoming the note holder and providing an avenue of recourse with the franchisee. The Company recorded a liability for this guarantee which was based on the Company’s estimate of fair value. As of February 28, 2017, the balance of the franchisee’s loan was $5.7 million.
The Company has obligations under various operating lease agreements with third-party lessors related to the real estate for certain Company Drive-In operations that were sold to franchisees. Under these agreements, which expire through 2029, the Company remains secondarily liable for the lease payments for which it was responsible as the original lessee. As of February 28, 2017, the amount remaining under these guaranteed lease obligations totaled $6.8 million. At this time, the Company does not anticipate any material defaults under the foregoing leases; therefore, zero liability has been provided.
7. | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The fair value of financial instruments is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The Company has no financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
The Company categorizes its assets and liabilities recorded at fair value based on the following fair value hierarchy established by the FASB:
• | Level 1 valuations use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date. An active market is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. |
• | Level 2 valuations use inputs other than actively quoted market prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include: (a) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, (b) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, (c) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals and (d) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. |
• | Level 3 valuations use unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to the extent observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. |
The Company’s cash equivalents, some of which are included in restricted cash, are carried at cost which approximates fair value and totaled $27.3 million at February 28, 2017 and $59.2 million at August 31, 2016. This fair value is estimated using Level 1 inputs.
At February 28, 2017 and August 31, 2016, the fair value of the Company’s Series 2016-1 Senior Secured Fixed Rate Notes, Class A-2 (the “2016 Fixed Rate Notes”) and Series 2013-1 Senior Secured Fixed Rate Notes, Class A-2 (the “2013 Fixed Rate Notes” and, together with the 2016 Fixed Rate Notes, the “Fixed Rate Notes”) approximated the carrying value, including accrued interest, of $578.2 million and $579.6 million, respectively. At February 28, 2017 the fair value of the Company's Series 2016-1 Senior Secured Variable Funding Notes, Class A-1 (the “2016 Variable Funding Notes” and, together with the Fixed Rate Notes, the “Notes”) approximated the carrying value of $26.1 million, including accrued interest. At August 31, 2016 the 2016 Variable Funding Notes had no balance. The fair value of the Notes is estimated using Level 2 inputs from market information available for public debt transactions for companies with ratings that are similar to the Company’s ratings and from information gathered from brokers who trade in the Company’s notes.

8. | Other Operating Income |
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company recorded a gain of $3.8 million on the sale of minority investments in franchise operations retained as part of a refranchising transaction that occurred in fiscal year 2009. The gain is reflected in other operating income, net on the condensed consolidated statement of income.
9. | Refranchising Initiative |
Refranchising Transactions
In June 2016, the Company announced plans to refranchise Company Drive-Ins as part of a refranchising initiative to move toward an approximately 95%-franchised system. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company completed transactions to refranchise the operations of 56 Company Drive-Ins and retained a non-controlling minority investment in the franchise operations. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company completed additional transactions to refranchise the operations of 54 Company Drive-Ins and retained a non-controlling minority investment in 50 of these refranchised drive-ins.
During fiscal year 2016, the Company refranchised the operations of 38 Company Drive-Ins. Of the Company Drive-Ins refranchised in fiscal year 2016, 29 were completed as part of the refranchising initiative announced in June 2016. The Company retained a non-controlling minority investment in the franchise operations of 25 of these refranchised drive-ins.
Income from minority investments is included in other revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of income. Gains and losses associated with refranchised drive-ins are recorded in other operating income, net on the condensed consolidated statement of income. The following is a summary of the pretax activity recorded as a result of the refranchising initiative ($ in thousands):

(2) | During the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, as part of a 53 drive-in refranchising transaction, the Company entered into a direct financing lease which includes an option for the franchisee to purchase the real estate within the next 24 months. In accordance with lease accounting requirements, since the exercise of this option can occur at any time within the next 24 months, the portion of the proceeds from the refranchising attributable to the fair value of the option represents the initial minimum lease payment for the real estate. Unless and until the option is exercised or expires, the franchisee will make monthly lease payments of $0.3 million through November 2017 and $0.1 million thereafter, through November 2018, which will be included in other operating income. We are including lease payments received, net of sub-lease expenses, to quantify the net refranchising gain (loss). |
(3) | The deferred gain of $1.0 million is recorded in other non-current liabilities as a result of a real estate purchase option extended to the franchisee that will be exercised or expire between January 2020 and December 2023. |

Direct Financing Leases
As part of the refranchising initiative, the Company entered into direct franchising leases in fiscal year 2016 and the first half of fiscal year 2017. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company reclassified a portion of the balance from noncurrent to current investment in direct financing lease, related to the option included in the 53 drive-in refranchising transaction in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. In March 2017, the franchisee initiated exercise of the option by purchasing a portion of the real estate, and the Company expects the remainder of the real estate to be purchased within the next 12 months.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
In the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Sonic Corp.,” “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Sonic Corp. and its subsidiaries.
Overview
Systemwide same-store sales decreased 7.4% during the second quarter and decreased 4.6% for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 as compared to an increase of 6.5% and 5.9%, respectively, for the same periods last year. Same-store sales at Company Drive-Ins decreased 8.9% during the second quarter and 5.5% for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 as compared to an increase of 6.3% and 5.3%, respectively, for the same periods last year. Approximately one percentage point of the decrease in sales for the second quarter and approximately one-half percentage point of the decrease for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 are attributable to one additional day of operations in February 2016 versus February 2017, due to leap year. The same-store sales decrease reflects a decline in traffic, driven by lower consumer spending in the restaurant industry, aggressive competitive activity and strong performance in the prior-year periods. We continue to execute on our long-term strategies, including new technology, people initiatives, product innovation, a greater emphasis on personalized service, targeted value promotions and our fully integrated media strategy. All of these initiatives drive Sonic’s multi-layered growth strategy, which incorporates same-store sales growth, operating leverage, deployment of cash, an ascending royalty rate and new drive-in development. Same-store sales growth is the most important layer and drives operating leverage and increased operating cash flows.
Revenues decreased to $100.2 million for the second quarter and $229.7 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 from $133.2 million and $279.0 million, respectively, for the same periods last year, primarily due to a decrease in Company Drive-In sales. The decrease in Company Drive-In sales was a result of refranchising certain Company Drive-Ins during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016 and the first half of fiscal year 2017, as part of our initiative to move toward an approximately 95%-franchised system, as well as decreased same-store sales. Restaurant margins at Company Drive-Ins were unfavorable by 330 basis points during the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 and 220 basis points for the first six months of fiscal year 2017, reflecting the de-leveraging impact of same-stores sales decreases and the impact of fees paid to the Brand Technology Fund (“BTF”) that was established in the third quarter of fiscal year 2016.
Second quarter results for fiscal year 2017 reflected net income of $11.0 million or $0.25 per diluted share as compared to net income of $10.8 million or $0.22 per diluted share for the same periods last year. Net income and diluted earnings per share for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 were $24.1 million and $0.53, respectively, as compared to net income of $23.3 million or $0.46 per diluted share for the same period last year. Adjustments to net income are detailed below in Results of Operations.
In June 2016, we announced plans to refranchise Company Drive-Ins as part of a refranchising initiative to move toward an approximately 95%-franchised system. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, we completed transactions to refranchise the operations of 56 Company Drive-Ins and retained a non-controlling minority investment in the franchise operations. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company completed additional transactions to refranchise the operations of 54 Company Drive-Ins and retained a non-controlling minority investment in 50 of these refranchised drive-ins.
During fiscal year 2016, we refranchised the operations of 38 Company Drive-Ins. Of the Company Drive-Ins refranchised in fiscal year 2016, 29 were completed as part of the refranchising initiative announced in June 2016. We retained a non-controlling minority investment in the franchise operations of 25 refranchised drive-ins.

Same-store sales for Company Drive-Ins decreased 8.9% for the second quarter and 5.5% for the first six months of fiscal year 2017, as compared to an increase of 6.3% and 5.3% for the same periods last year, reflecting a decrease in traffic due to lower consumer spending in the restaurant industry, aggressive competitive activity and strong performance in the prior-year periods. We continue to focus on our innovative product pipeline, multi-day-part promotions and increased media effectiveness. Company Drive-In sales decreased $31.0 million during the second quarter and $47.8 million during the first six months of fiscal year 2017 as compared to the same periods last year. The decrease in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal year 2017 is primarily due to a decrease in sales from stores sold to franchisees of $23.8 million and $36.9 million, respectively, and a decrease in same-store sales of $6.4 million and $8.6 million, respectively.

The following table reflects the change in franchise sales, the number of Franchise Drive-Ins, average unit volumes and franchising revenues. While we do not record Franchise Drive-In sales as revenues, we believe this information is important in understanding our financial performance since these sales are the basis on which we calculate and record franchise royalties. This information is also indicative of the financial health of our franchisees.

Same-store sales for Franchise Drive-Ins decreased 7.3% for the second quarter and 4.5% for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 as compared to an increase of 6.5% and 5.9%, respectively, for the same periods last year, reflecting a decrease in traffic due to lower consumer spending in the restaurant industry, aggressive competitive activity and strong performance in the prior-year periods. We continue to focus on our innovative product pipeline, multi-day-part promotions and increased media effectiveness. Franchising revenues decreased $1.4 million, or 3.9%, for the second quarter and decreased $1.4 million, or 1.8%, for the first six months of fiscal year 2017, compared to the same periods last year. Franchise royalties were negatively impacted by the decrease in same-store sales and were partially offset by an increase in royalties related to franchisee acquisitions of Company Drive-ins and net new unit growth.

Operating Expenses. The following table presents the overall costs of drive-in operations as a percentage of Company Drive-In sales. Other operating expenses include direct operating costs such as marketing, telephone and utilities, repair and maintenance, rent, property tax and other controllable expenses.

Drive-in level margins at Company Drive-Ins were unfavorable by 330 basis points during the second quarter and 220 basis points during the first six months of fiscal year 2017, primarily driven by the de-leveraging impact of same-store sales to payroll and other employee benefits and other operating expenses. Food and packaging costs were favorable by 10 basis points during the second quarter and 10 basis points during the first six months of fiscal year 2017 as a result of moderate commodity cost improvement, partially offset by the impact of the BTF. Payroll and other employee benefits were unfavorable by 230 basis points for the second quarter and 170 basis points during the first six months of fiscal year 2017, reflecting the de-leveraging impact of same-store sales. Other operating expenses were unfavorable by 110 basis points during the second quarter and 60 basis points during the first six months of fiscal year 2017, driven by the de-leveraging impact of same-store sales and the impact of fees paid to the BTF.
Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”). SG&A expenses decreased $2.5 million, or 12.0%, to $18.3 million for the second quarter and $3.7 million, or 8.8%, to $38.1 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2017, as compared to the same periods last year. The decrease is primarily related to lower variable compensation related to operating performance.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased $1.3 million, or 12.0%, in the second quarter to $9.7 million and $2.0 million, or 9.3%, to $20.0 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2017, as compared to the same periods last year. This decrease is primarily attributable to assets that fully depreciated in the prior fiscal year and a decrease in company assets related to the refranchising of certain Company Drive-Ins in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016 and the first half of fiscal year 2017.
Net Interest Expense. Net interest expense increased $0.6 million, or 9.5%, to $7.0 million for the second quarter and $1.2 million, or 9.4%, to $13.7 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2017, as compared to the same periods last year. The increase is due to an increase in the long-term debt balance attributable to our debt financing transaction that occurred in the third quarter of fiscal year 2016, partially offset by a lower weighted-average interest rate. For additional information on long-term debt, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2016.
Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes reflects an effective tax rate of 30.0% for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 as compared to 31.7% for the same period in 2016. The provision for income taxes reflects an effective tax rate of 33.1%
20
for the first six months of fiscal 2017 compared to 34.9% for the same period in 2016. The lower effective income tax rate during the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 and for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 was due primarily to the recognition of excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises due to the early adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting,” in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017. Excess tax benefits recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of income were negligible in the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 and $0.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 as a component of the provision for income taxes. The early adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 resulted in a favorable effective tax rate impact of 4.7% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2017. Please refer to "Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements" section of note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for details regarding the adoption of this standard. This decrease was partially offset by the favorable impact of the retroactive reinstatement of the Work Opportunity Tax Credit in the second quarter of fiscal year 2016. Our tax rate may continue to vary from quarter to quarter depending on the timing of stock option dispositions by option-holders and as circumstances on other tax matters change.
Non-GAAP adjustments. Excluding the non-GAAP adjustments further described below, net income and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal year 2017 would have decreased 27% and 17%, respectively. Excluding the non-GAAP adjustments further described below, net income and diluted earnings per share for the first half of fiscal year 2017 would have decreased 17% and 7%, respectively.
The following analysis of non-GAAP adjustments is intended to supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP. We believe the exclusion of these items in evaluating the change in net income and diluted earnings per share for the periods below provides useful information to investors and management regarding the underlying business trends and the performance of our ongoing operations and is helpful for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which management believes will assist investors in analyzing the financial results for the Company and predicting future performance.

________________
(1) | During the first quarter of fiscal year 2017, we completed transactions to refranchise the operations of 56 Company Drive-Ins. Of the proceeds, $3.8 million represents the initial lease payment for a real estate purchase option that will be exercised or expire within 24 months, which resulted in a net loss of $1.0 million. Unless and until the option is exercised or expires, the franchisee will make monthly lease payments of $0.3 million through November 2017 and $0.1 million thereafter, through November 2018, which will be included in other operating income. We are including lease payments received, net of sub-lease expenses, to quantify the net refranchising gain (loss). Net payments received during the second quarter totaled $0.4 million. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2017, we completed transactions to refranchise the operations of 54 drive-ins, one of which resulted in a gain of $7.8 million and another in a loss of $1.4 million. The loss transaction also included a deferred gain of $1.0 million, which is recorded in other non-current liabilities, as a result of a real estate purchase option extended to the franchisee that will be exercised or expire between January 2020 and December 2023. |

Financial Position
Total assets decreased $77.0 million, or 11.9%, to $571.7 million during the first six months of fiscal year 2017 from $648.7 million at the end of fiscal year 2016. The decrease in total assets was driven by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents, which reflects the purchases of common stock and payment of dividends during the period, offset by cash generated from operating activities and proceeds from refranchising transactions. Total assets were further impacted by a decrease in net property, equipment and capital leases, driven by depreciation, asset retirements and refranchising transactions, as well as assets sold that were recorded as held for sale at the end of fiscal year 2016. These were partially offset by purchases of property, equipment and technology.
Total liabilities increased $5.1 million, or 0.7%, to $729.4 million during the first six months of fiscal year 2017 from $724.3 million at the end of fiscal year 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to the $26.0 million balance from borrowing on the Company's Series 2016-1 Senior Secured Variable Funding Notes, Class A-1 (the "2016 Variable Funding Notes"). This was partially offset by a decrease of $12.8 million in accrued liabilities, which are mainly related to payment of wages and incentive compensation and other tax liabilities that were accrued as of August 31, 2016 as well as a decrease in accounts payable and incomes taxes payable, both related to the timing of payments.
Total stockholders’ deficit increased $82.1 million, or 108.5%, to a deficit of $157.7 million during the first six months of fiscal year 2017 from a deficit of $75.6 million at the end of fiscal year 2016. This increase was primarily attributable to $97.5 million in purchases of common stock during the first six months of the fiscal year and the payment of $12.5 million in dividends, partially offset by current-year earnings of $24.1 million.
Liquidity and Sources of Capital
Operating Cash Flows. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $11.2 million to $27.6 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 as compared to $38.8 million for the same period in fiscal year 2016. The change was driven by higher incentive compensation payments compared to the same period in the prior year, as well as the timing of payments for payroll and tax transactions. The decrease was also driven by the decrease in operating income.
22
Investing Cash Flows. Net cash provided by investing activities was $19.2 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2017 as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $5.1 million for the same period in fiscal year 2016. The increase in cash provided by investing activities was driven by $27.1 million in proceeds from the disposition of assets, the majority of which was a result of the stores sold to franchisees as part of the refranchising initiative, and $8.4 million in proceeds from the sale of investment in refranchised drive-in operations. In addition, we received $3.2 million from franchisees on short-term financing notes and $2.5 million in repayment of notes extended in fiscal year 2016 related to the establishment of the Brand Technology Fund. These proceeds were offset by increased investments in property and equipment compared to the same period last year, mainly due to increased investment in rebuilds, relocations and remodels of existing drive-ins, partially offset by a decrease in purchases and replacement of equipment and technology.
The table below outlines our use of cash in millions for investments in property and equipment for the first six months of fiscal year 2017:
Rebuilds, relocations and remodels of existing drive-ins | $ | 12.3 | |
Brand technology investments | 7.8 | ||
Newly constructed drive-ins leased or sold to franchisees | 2.9 | ||
Newly constructed Company Drive-Ins | 2.1 | ||
Purchase and replacement of equipment and technology | 2.0 | ||
Total investments in property and equipment | $ | 27.1 | |
Financing Cash Flows. Net cash used in financing activities increased $60.3 million to $85.0 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2017, as compared to $24.7 million for the same period in fiscal year 2016. The prior-year period included net borrowings of $61.5 million on the Series 2011-1 Senior Secured Variable Funding Notes, Class A-1, compared to net borrowings of $26.0 million on the 2016 Variable Funding Notes in the current-year period. Additionally, purchases of treasury stock increased by $22.3 million. For additional information on long-term debt, see our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2016.
In August 2015, our Board of Directors extended our share repurchase program, authorizing the purchase of up to $145.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock through August 31, 2016. The Board of Directors further extended the share repurchase program effective May 2016, authorizing the purchase of up to an additional $155.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock through August 31, 2017. In October 2016, our Board of Directors increased the authorization under the share repurchase program by $40.0 million.
Share repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market or otherwise. The share repurchase program may be extended, modified, suspended or discontinued at any time. During the first six months of fiscal year 2017, approximately 3.7 million shares were repurchased for a total cost of $97.5 million, resulting in an average price per share of $26.21.
As of February 28, 2017, our total cash balance of $42.4 million ($33.9 million of unrestricted and $8.5 million of restricted cash balances) reflected the impact of the cash generated from operating activities, refranchising proceeds, cash used for share repurchases, dividends and capital expenditures mentioned above. We believe that existing cash, funds generated from operations and the amount available under our 2016 Variable Funding Notes, will meet our needs for the foreseeable future.
