Q2 GAAP and Non-GAAP EPS of $0.68; Long-Term Strategy Remains Intact

Q2 Active U.S. Starbucks^® Rewards Membership Totals 32.8 Million, Up 6% Over Prior Year

Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ:SBUX) today reported financial results for its 13-week fiscal second quarter ended March 31, 2024. GAAP results in fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 include items that are excluded from non-GAAP results. Please refer to the reconciliation of GAAP measures to non-GAAP measures at the end of this release for more information.

Q2 Fiscal 2024 Highlights

Global comparable store sales declined 4%, driven by a 6% decline in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 2% increase in average ticket
- North America and U.S. comparable store sales declined 3%, driven by a 7% decline in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 4% increase in average ticket
- International comparable store sales declined 6%, driven by a 3% decline in both comparable transactions and average ticket; China comparable store sales declined 11%, driven by an 8% decline in average ticket and a 4% decline in comparable transactions
The company opened 364 net new stores in Q2, ending the period with 38,951 stores: 52% company-operated and 48% licensed
- At the end of Q2, stores in the U.S. and China comprised 61% of the company's global portfolio, with 16,600 and 7,093 stores in the U.S. and China, respectively
Consolidated net revenues declined 2%, to $8.6 billion, or a 1% decline on a constant currency basis
GAAP operating margin contracted 240 basis points year-over-year to 12.8%, primarily driven by deleverage, incremental investments in store partner wages and benefits, increased promotional activities, lapping the gain on the sale of Seattle's Best Coffee brand, as well as higher general and administrative costs primarily in support of Reinvention. This decline was partially offset by pricing and in-store operational efficiencies.
- Non-GAAP operating margin contracted 150 basis points year-over-year to 12.8%, or contracted 140 basis points on a constant currency basis
GAAP earnings per share of $0.68 declined 14% over prior year
- Non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.68 declined 8% over prior year, or declined 7% on a constant currency basis
Starbucks Rewards loyalty program 90-day active members in the U.S. totaled 32.8 million, up 6% year-over-year

"In a highly challenged environment, this quarter's results do not reflect the power of our brand, our capabilities or the opportunities ahead," commented Laxman Narasimhan, chief executive officer. "It did not meet our expectations, but we understand the specific challenges and opportunities immediately in front of us. We have a clear plan to execute and the entire organization is mobilized around it. We are very confident in our long-term and know that our Triple Shot Reinvention with Two Pumps strategy will deliver on the limitless potential of this brand," Narasimhan added.

"While it was a difficult quarter, we learned from our own underperformance and sharpened our focus with a comprehensive roadmap of well thought out actions making the path forward clear," commented Rachel Ruggeri, chief financial officer. "On this path, we remain committed to our disciplined approach to capital allocation as we navigate this complex and dynamic environment," Ruggeri added.

Includes only Starbucks^® company-operated stores open 13 months or longer. Comparable store sales exclude the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and Siren Retail stores. Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed.

Net revenues for the North America segment of $6.4 billion in Q2 FY24 were flat to Q2 FY23, primarily driven by a 3% decline in comparable store sales, driven by a 7% decline in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 4% increase in average ticket. This decline was offset by net new company-operated store growth of 5% over the past 12 months, as well as growth in our licensed store business.

Operating income decreased to $1.1 billion in Q2 FY24 compared to $1.2 billion in Q2 FY23. Operating margin of 18.0% contracted from 19.1% in the prior year, primarily driven by deleverage, incremental investments in store partner wages and benefits, and increased promotional activity. This contraction was partially offset by pricing and in-store operational efficiencies.

⁽¹⁾

Includes only Starbucks® company-operated stores open 13 months or longer. Comparable store sales exclude the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and Siren Retail stores. Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed.

Net revenues for the International segment declined 5% over Q2 FY23 to $1.8 billion in Q2 FY24, primarily driven by an approximate 5% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation and a 6% decline in comparable store sales, driven by a 3% decline in both comparable transactions and average ticket. Also contributing were lower product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees. This decline was partially offset by net new company-operated store growth of 12% over the past 12 months.

Operating income decreased to $233.8 million in Q2 FY24 compared to $314.7 million in Q2 FY23. Operating margin of 13.3% contracted from 17.0% in the prior year, primarily driven by promotional activities, incremental investments in store partner wages and benefits, as well as sales mix shift, partially offset by pricing in certain markets.

Q2 Channel Development Segment Results

	Quarter Ended
($ in millions)	Mar 31, 2024	Apr 2, 2023	Change (%)
Revenues	$418.2	$480.7	(13)%
Operating Income	$216.3	$262.1	(17)%
Operating Margin	51.7%	54.5%	(280) bps

Net revenues for the Channel Development segment declined 13% over Q2 FY23 to $418.2 million in Q2 FY24, primarily due to a decline in revenue in the Global Coffee Alliance, following the sale of Seattle's Best Coffee brand in the prior year and SKU optimization.

Operating income decreased to $216.3 million in Q2 FY24 compared to $262.1 million in Q2 FY23. Operating margin of 51.7% contracted from 54.5% in the prior year, primarily due to lapping the gain on the sale of Seattle's Best Coffee brand, partially offset by growth in our North American Coffee Partnership joint venture income, sales mix shift, and lapping impairment charges against certain manufacturing assets.

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 (GAAP). When provided, our non-GAAP financial measures of non-GAAP general and administrative expenses (G&A), non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income growth (loss), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP earnings per share exclude the below-listed items and their related tax impacts, as they do not contribute to a meaningful evaluation of the company's future operating performance or comparisons to the company's past operating performance. The GAAP measures most directly comparable to non-GAAP G&A, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income growth (loss), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate and non-GAAP earnings per share are G&A, operating income, operating income growth (loss), operating margin, effective tax rate and diluted net earnings per share, respectively.

Non-GAAP Exclusion		Rationale
Restructuring and impairment costs		Management excludes restructuring and impairment costs for reasons discussed above. These expenses are anticipated to be completed within a finite period of time.
Transaction and integration-related costs		Management excludes transaction and integration costs for reasons discussed above. Additionally, we incur certain costs associated with certain divestiture activities. The majority of these costs will be recognized over a finite period of time.
Gain on sale of assets		Management excludes the gain related to the sale of assets to Nestlé, primarily consisting of intellectual properties associated with the Seattle's Best Coffee brand, as these items do not reflect future gains or tax impacts for reasons discussed above.

The Company also presents constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how our underlying businesses performed excluding the effect of foreign currency rate fluctuations. To present the constant currency information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than United States dollars are converted into United States dollars using the average monthly exchange rates from the comparative period rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the respective periods, excluding related hedging activities. We believe the presentation of results on a constant currency basis in addition to GAAP results helps users better understand our performance, because it excludes the effects of foreign currency volatility that are not indicative of our underlying operating results.

Non-GAAP G&A, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating income growth (loss), non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP earnings per share and constant currency 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.
