Third quarter Net Revenue of $379.9 million, Organic Revenue increases 3.5%

Krispy Kreme, Inc. (NASDAQ:DNUT) ("Krispy Kreme", "KKI", or the "Company") today reported financial results for the quarter ended September 29, 2024.

Third Quarter Highlights (vs Q3 2023)

Net revenue of $379.9 million
Organic revenue grew 3.5% to $376.4 million
GAAP net income of $37.6 million, linked to the sale of a majority ownership stake of Insomnia Cookies ($39.6 million net income attributable to KKI)
Adjusted EBITDA of $34.7 million
GAAP operating cash flow of $3.3 million
Global Points of Access ("POA") increased 2,417, or 18.0%, to 15,811

"Krispy Kreme delivered a seventeenth consecutive quarter of year-over-year organic sales growth driven by increased Delivered Fresh Daily and digital sales," said Josh Charlesworth, CEO.

"Consumers ask us every day, ‘When can you bring Krispy Kreme to my town?' hence our strategy of making our fresh doughnuts more available around the world. The successful start of our nationwide U.S. rollout at McDonald's, which began in Chicago in October and continues next week across Ohio and Indiana, is a major milestone on this journey, and we now expect to be delighting Krispy Kreme's fans with our melt-in-your-mouth doughnuts fresh daily in nearly 2,000 McDonald's restaurants by the end of 2024."

"Now well into my first year as CEO, we have streamlined and focused our business with the sale of our majority stake in Insomnia Cookies complete and the acceleration of our US DFD expansion underway. To better align our talent and our capital to our business priorities, we are now restructuring our management teams to concentrate on maximizing our profitable expansion of the U.S. while focusing international efforts on the wider adoption of our capital-light franchise model. With our resources prioritized to the things that matter most, I believe that these changes will result in a bigger and better Krispy Kreme," Charlesworth continued.

Third Quarter 2024 Consolidated Results (vs Q3 2023)

Krispy Kreme's third-quarter results reflect the sale of a majority ownership stake of Insomnia Cookies. The business is now fully focused on its core strategy of producing, selling and distributing fresh doughnuts daily and executing on its profitable U.S. growth strategy and capital light international model. Net revenue was $379.9 million in Q3 2024, a decline of 6.8%, compared to $407.4 million in the same quarter last year. GAAP Net Income was $37.6 million, including the gain on divestiture of a controlling interest in Insomnia Cookies, compared to prior year net loss of $40.3 million. GAAP diluted earnings per share was $0.23, compared to a loss of $0.24 in the same quarter last year.

Total company organic revenue grew 3.5% compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Delivered Fresh Daily ("DFD") sales and digital sales both grew 15%, more than offsetting expected consumer softness in U.S. Retail and the U.K.

Adjusted EBITDA was $34.7 million, a decline of 20.7% largely driven by the sale of a majority ownership stake in Insomnia Cookies. Adjusted EBITDA margin declined 160 bps to 9.1%, due to underperformance in the U.K. and incremental vehicle accident claims costs in the U.S. Adjusted Net Loss, diluted was $2.5 million in the quarter. Adjusted Diluted EPS declined to $(0.01) from $0.03 in the same quarter last year.

Third Quarter 2024 Segment Results (vs Q3 2023)

U.S.: In the U.S. segment, net revenue declined $31.8 million, or 12.2%, driven by the $43.5 million impact associated with the sale of a majority ownership stake of Insomnia Cookies in July 2024. Organic revenue growth of $5.5 million, or 2.5%, was driven by a 14% increase in Points of Access and a 21% increase in digital channel revenues.

U.S. Adjusted EBITDA decreased $8.3 million, or 37.5%, with margin declining 250 basis points to 6.1%, due to incremental vehicle accident claims costs and McDonald's start-up costs, partially offset by pricing and productivity benefits from the Company's Hub and Spoke model. Following successful pilots with a third-party logistics partner in Los Angeles and Washington, DC, the Company launched an RFP on October 9th with several national and regional carriers for daily delivery of fresh doughnuts to grocers, convenience stores, quick service restaurants, and others.

International: In the International segment, net revenue grew $4.6 million, or 3.7%, with organic revenue growth of $5.3 million or 4.2%, driven by Canada, Japan, and Australia, which more than offset underperformance in the U.K.

International segment Adjusted EBITDA margin improved sequentially despite the seasonally weaker quarter as actions taken to reduce costs delivered improved results. Year over year, Adjusted EBITDA decreased $2.2 million, or 8.7%, with a margin decline of 240 basis points to 17.4%, primarily due to pressure in the U.K. where we have welcomed a new management team focused on improving the business.

Market Development: In the Market Development segment, net revenue declined $0.3 million, or approximately 1.5%, due to the $2.1 million impact of franchise acquisitions in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Market Development organic revenue grew $1.8 million, or approximately 8.6%, with a new market opening in Morocco alongside continued growth in France, Turkey, and Ecuador.

Market Development Adjusted EBITDA grew $1.5 million, or 14.8%, with margin expansion of 770 basis points delivering Adjusted EBITDA margins of 54.2%, driven by royalty flow through and savings in SG&A.

Balance Sheet and Capital Expenditures

During the third quarter of 2024, Operating Cash Flow was $3.3 million. The Company invested $26.1 million, or 6.9% of net revenue, in capital expenditures, driven primarily by the investments in the Hub and Spoke model for the U.S. expansion of the DFD network. During the quarter, the Company received $117.6 million in net proceeds from the divestiture of Insomnia Cookies and $45.0 million from the repayment of an intercompany loan due from Insomnia Cookies, which was used to reduce long term debt.

2024 Financial Guidance

We are adjusting our full year guide to reflect the third quarter results, the acceleration of our expansion with McDonald's, and the completion of the Insomnia Cookies transaction in July 2024:

Net Revenue of $1,650 to $1,685 million
Organic Revenue growth of +5% to +7%
Adjusted EBITDA of $205 to $210 million
Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.18 to $0.22
Income Tax rate between 28% and 30%
Capital Expenditures of 7% to 8% of net revenue
Interest Expense, net of $55 million to $60 million

Our actual results could differ materially from the forward-looking statements included herein.

Non-GAAP Measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures including organic revenue growth, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Diluted, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Net Debt, Fresh Revenue from Hubs with Spokes and Sales per Hub, which differ from results using U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP financial measures are not universally consistent calculations, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Other companies may calculate similarly titled financial measures differently than we do or may not calculate them at all. Additionally, these non-GAAP financial measures are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP. In order to facilitate a clear understanding of our consolidated historical operating results, you should examine our non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto filed with the SEC. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for reconciliations of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP measures.

To the extent that the Company provides guidance, it does so only on a non-GAAP basis. The Company does not provide reconciliations of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inability to predict the amount and timing of impacts outside of the Company's control on certain items, such as net income and other charges reflected in our reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

We define "Adjusted EBITDA" as earnings before interest expense, net, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization, with further adjustments for share-based compensation, certain strategic initiatives, acquisition and integration expenses, and other certain non-recurring, infrequent or non-core income and expense items. Adjusted EBITDA is a principal metric that management uses to monitor and evaluate operating performance and provides a consistent benchmark for comparison across reporting periods.

We define "Adjusted Net Income, Diluted" as net loss attributable to common shareholders, adjusted for interest expense, share-based compensation, certain strategic initiatives, acquisition and integration expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, the tax impact of adjustments, and other certain non-recurring, infrequent or non-core income and expense items. "Adjusted EPS" is Adjusted Net Income, Diluted converted to a per share amount.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Diluted, and Adjusted EPS have certain limitations, including adjustments for income and expense items that are required by GAAP. In evaluating these non-GAAP measures, you should be aware that in the future we will incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation, such as share-based compensation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Diluted, and Adjusted EPS should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by relying on our GAAP results in addition to using Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Diluted, and Adjusted EPS supplementally.
