SEATTLE; November 2, 2017 – Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ: SBUX) today reported financial results for its 13-week fiscal fourth quarter and 52-week fiscal year ended October 1, 2017. Note that fiscal 2016 contained an extra week in the fourth quarter, resulting in incremental revenue and income in the comparable periods, which had 14- and 53-weeks, respectively. Further, GAAP results in fiscal 2017 include items related to strategic actions the company is taking as it focuses on accelerating growth in high-returning businesses and streamlining its operations. These items include restructuring and impairment charges, transaction and integration costs, gains related to changes in ownership of international markets, and other items, which are excluded from non-GAAP results. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures with their corresponding GAAP measures is available at the end of this release.

The company will hold a conference call, hosted by Kevin Johnson, president and ceo, and Scott Maw, cfo, today at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time, in order to provide further commentary around Starbucks non-GAAP business results. The call will be webcast and can be accessed at http://investor.starbucks.com.

"Today, Starbucks reported another quarter - and year - of strong performance, with each of our business segments around the world contributing to record results,” said Kevin Johnson, ceo and president. “Food, beverage and digital innovation are bringing customers into our stores at the same time as ongoing operational improvements are enabling us to drive increased throughput - particularly in our busiest stores at peak - and deliver a further elevated Starbucks Experience to our customers.”

“Starbucks delivered solid top and bottom line growth - and our strongest quarterly traffic number in the U.S. since mid-2016 - despite a difficult operating environment in both the quarter and year,” said Scott Maw, cfo. “Continued strong growth and performance from CAP demonstrates that Starbucks now has two significant profit engines driving our global returns, our North America business and the broader CAP market.”

(1) Q4 2017 net new stores include the closure of 54 Teavana-branded stores.

Consolidated net revenues of $5.7 billion in Q4 FY17 were flat to the prior year quarter, which included an extra week. Excluding $412.4 million for the extra week in Q4 FY16, consolidated net revenues grew 8%, driven by incremental revenues from the opening of 2,254 net new stores over the past 12 months and a 2% growth in global comparable store sales. The impact from Hurricanes Irma and Harvey affected consolidated and U.S. comp growth by 1% as over 1,000 stores were temporarily closed for storm related reasons.

Consolidated operating income declined 17% to $1,022.5 million in Q4 FY17, down from $1,227.5 million in Q4 FY16. Consolidated operating margin declined 360 basis points to 17.9%, primarily due to increased partner investments, largely in the Americas segment, and the lapping of the 53rd week in Q4 FY16. Additionally, operating margin was adversely impacted by product mix shift, largely towards food, a higher donation to The Starbucks Foundation, and costs related to restructuring and impairments. These were partially offset by sales leverage.

Operating income of $903.7 million in Q4 FY17 declined 18% versus $1,096.9 million in Q4 FY16. Operating margin of 22.9% declined 470 basis points primarily due to increased investments in our store partners (employees), product mix shift, largely towards food, and the lapping of the 53rd week in Q4 FY16.

Excluding $56.9 million for the extra week in Q4 FY16, net revenues grew 10%, primarily driven by incremental revenues from 1,036 net new store openings over the past 12 months and a 2% growth in comparable store sales. The increase was partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation.

Q4 FY17 operating income of $201.7 million grew 5% over Q4 FY16 operating income of $192.4 million. Operating margin expanded 60 basis points to 23.5%, primarily driven by higher income from our joint venture operations and partially offset by the lapping of the 53rd week in Q4 FY16.

Net revenues for the EMEA segment of $269.9 million in Q4 FY17 were flat to the prior year quarter, which included an extra week. Excluding $18.3 million for the extra week in Q4 FY16, net revenues grew 7%, driven by incremental revenues from the opening of 339 net new licensed stores over the past 12 months.

Operating income of $34.8 million in Q4 FY17 declined 24% versus operating income of $45.8 million in Q4 FY16. Operating margin declined 410 basis points to 12.9% primarily driven by sales deleverage in certain company-operated stores, the impact of a tax settlement, and the lapping of the 53rd week in Q4 FY16. Partially offsetting the decline was sales leverage due to the shift in the portfolio towards more licensed stores.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

In addition to the GAAP results provided in this release, the company provides certain non-GAAP financial measures that are not in accordance with, or alternatives for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Our non-GAAP financial measures of non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP EPS exclude the below listed items. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP EPS are operating income, operating margin and diluted net earnings per share, respectively.
Non-GAAP Exclusion
Rationale
Sale of Singapore retail operations
Management excludes the net gain and associated transaction costs related to the sale of our Singapore retail operations as these items do not reflect future gains, losses or tax impacts and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's past or future operating performance.
Greater China transaction costs
Management excludes transaction costs related to the East China acquisition and the Taiwan divestiture as these incremental costs are specific to the purchase and sale activities that do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company’s future operating performance or comparisons to the company’s past operating performance.

Restructuring and impairment charges
Management excludes restructuring and impairment charges related to strategic shifts in its Teavana and e-commerce business units as well as related to divesting certain lower margin businesses and assets, such as closure of certain company-operated stores. These expenses are anticipated to be completed within a finite period of time. Additionally, management excludes goodwill impairment charges related to its Switzerland retail business. These expenses do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company’s future operating performance or comparisons to the company’s past operating performance.
Starbucks Japan acquisition-related items
Management excludes Starbucks Japan integration costs and amortization of the acquired intangible assets when evaluating performance because these expenses are not representative of our core business operations. Although these items will affect earnings per share beyond the current fiscal year, the majority of these costs will be recognized over a finite period of time. Integration costs are expected to be concentrated in the first several years post-acquisition. Additionally, future amortization of the acquired intangible assets was fixed at the time of acquisition and generally cannot subsequently be changed or influenced by management.
Sale of Germany retail operations
Management excludes the net gain, associated costs and changes in estimated indemnifications related to the sale of our Germany retail operations as these items do not reflect future gains, losses or tax impacts and do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's past or future operating performance.
The Starbucks Foundation donation
Management excludes the company's largest donation to a non-profit organization as this item does not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's future operating performance or comparisons to the company's past operating performance.
Other tax matters
Management excludes incremental tax benefits in the U.S. as these tax benefits do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's past or future operating performance.
Non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin and non-GAAP EPS may have limitations as analytical tools. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the company's results as reported under GAAP. Other companies may calculate these non-GAAP financial measures differently than the company does, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
