OAKVILLE, ON, May 13 /CNW/ - Tim Hortons Inc. (TSX: THI, NYSE: THI) today announced its results for the first quarter ended April 4th, 2010.
"Our business achieved strong sales and earnings performance this quarter. Our competitive advantages continue to position our business among the leading companies in our sector, and we look forward to further building upon that position," said Don Schroeder, president and CEO.
Consolidated Results
All percentage increases and decreases represent year-over-year changes for the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009, unless otherwise noted.
The Company has retroactively adopted new accounting standard SFAS No. 167 which has impacted prior year reported results, and 2010 actual results, for revenues and cost line items. The new standard pertains to the consolidation of variable interest entities ("VIEs"). Under the accounting standard, if the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE, we are required to consolidate the VIE assets, liabilities, results of operations and cash flows.
The Company analyzed its variable interests, including its equity investments and certain operator arrangements. The Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of our 50-50 bakery joint venture and has consolidated this operation. This bakery joint venture produces and supplies our restaurant system with par-baked donuts, Timbits(TM), some bread products, and pastries. As a result, the revenues, costs and the remaining 50% of operating income of this joint venture and from approximately 150 additional non-owned restaurants, 100 of which are in the U.S. and 50 in Canada, have also been consolidated as a result of the new standard. The Company has no equity interest in any of its franchisees and none of the Company's assets serve as collateral for the consolidated restaurants. Additional information on the impact of the adoption of the accounting standard is available in our Form 10-Q filed today.
Systemwide sales(2) increased 10.0% on a constant currency basis. During the quarter total revenues were $582.6 million, an increase of 4.8% compared to $555.7 million last year. Higher distribution revenues, and higher rents and royalties due to strong underlying product demand, were partially offset by lower year-over-year revenues from consolidated VIE's and lower revenues from Company-operated restaurants as we continue to convert these locations to the franchise and owner-operator model. Lower franchise fees also impacted total revenues during the quarter, primarily due to timing of resales, replacements and renovations versus last year, and fewer new standard restaurants compared to the first quarter of 2009. The effects of foreign exchange translation negatively impacted revenue growth this quarter by approximately 1.6%.
First quarter operating income grew 14.9% to $127.7 million compared to $111.2 million last year. Solid same-store sales and continued restaurant development, which contributed to higher rents, royalties and distribution income, contributed most to this performance. Costs continued to be well managed during the quarter, with growth in all cost line items below the rate of systemwide sales growth, even considering the approximate 2.0% benefit to costs this quarter from foreign exchange translation. Changes in foreign exchange did not have a significant impact on operating income.
Net income attributable to Tim Hortons, which excludes the impact of noncontrolling interests, was $78.9 million in the first quarter, up 18.7% compared to $66.4 million in the same quarter last year. Higher operating income, and a lower year-over-year tax rate due primarily to the Company's 2009 public company reorganization, contributed to this positive performance. Adoption of the new SFAS No. 167 accounting standard did not have a significant impact on net income attributable to Tim Hortons or earnings per share.
First quarter diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $0.45, growing 21.9% compared to $0.37 per share last year. In addition to the factors benefiting net income, 2.6% fewer outstanding shares due to our share repurchase programs contributed to our EPS growth rate.
Segmented Performance Commentary
In the first quarter, both operating segments had improved same-store sales and earnings compared to the same period last year.
Canada
------
Canadian same-store sales experienced strong growth of 5.2% over the comparable period of 2009. Same-store sales growth benefited from successful menu, marketing and operational programs which led to continued transaction growth, and from previous pricing in place in the system in certain Canadian markets which benefited average cheque.
Our strong same-store sales performance incorporates the slight negative impact of a partial timing shift of the Easter holiday into the first quarter of this year, from the second quarter of 2009. A total of 20 restaurants were opened in the first quarter. At the end of the first quarter, we had 18 restaurants in Canada co-branded as Cold Stone Creamery(C) locations.
Operating income in the Canadian segment was $132.4 million, up 14.3% compared to $115.8 million in the first quarter of last year. Our strong operating income performance in the Canadian segment benefited from higher systemwide sales, including the solid 5.2% same-store sales growth noted previously, which drove rents, royalties and distribution income.
United States
-------------
The U.S. segment increased same-store sales by 3.0% in the first quarter. Significant contributions from co-branded locations featuring Cold Stone Creamery(C), and effective marketing programs and menu initiatives, benefited our performance in economic conditions that continued to be challenging. As in Canada, the partial timing shift of Easter compared to last year had a slight negative impact on same-store sales growth. A total of 4 restaurants were opened in the first quarter. At the end of the first quarter, we had 66 Tim Hortons restaurants in the U.S. co-branded as Cold Stone Creamery(C) locations.
The U.S. segment had a small operating loss of $0.3 million, an improvement compared to the $0.6 million operating loss from the same period last year. The first quarter is typically the most challenging for our business. Our systemwide sales in the U.S. benefited from continued restaurant development, and from continued same-store sales growth. Higher sales led to increased rents and royalties, offset in part by higher general and administrative costs and lower distribution contributions in the segment.
The overall rate of growth in relief we provide to franchisees in the U.S. slowed compared to historical levels, and while slightly higher in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the same period last year, the increase in relief is primarily related to either restaurants that were previously Company-operated locations or those opened for less than twelve months.
Corporate Developments
Company receives notice invoking buy/sell provisions for its bakery joint
venture
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Company received notice from IAWS Group Ltd., a subsidiary of Aryzta AG, the Company's 50-50 partner under the Maidstone Bakeries joint venture, invoking the buy/sell provisions of the joint venture. As a result, the Company has the option to either sell its interest or acquire IAWS' interest in the joint venture. Aryzta believes that the business of the joint venture will be better served under an alternative ownership structure rather than under the existing joint venture arrangement. The parties have agreed to an extended negotiation period to consider amendments to the ownership structure and the underlying arrangements.
The existing joint venture documentation provides that the Company's supply rights for products extend for seven years after either party's exit from the joint venture, and sourcing commitments extend until early 2016 for donuts and Timbits, allowing the Company sufficient flexibility to secure alternative means of supply, if desired. The existing agreements also have protections regarding intellectual property rights and dealing with competitors, as well as terms relating to price determination, that remain in effect after the closing of the transaction. Given that the discussions regarding the transaction are in the preliminary stages, the resolution of these matters may change as the ultimate ownership structure is determined. The parties expect to reach final agreement by year-end 2010.
New debt offering anticipated to refinance a portion of existing debt
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Subject to market conditions, in the second quarter of 2010 we expect to complete a private bond offering in Canada of between $200 million and $250 million. The proceeds of this anticipated offering are expected to be used to refinance a portion of our $300 million term loan and for general corporate purposes.
In anticipation of the transaction, we entered into interest rate forwards as a cash flow hedge to limit a significant portion of the interest rate volatility during the period prior to the consummation of the anticipated refinancing transaction. The interest rate forwards are designed to protect the Company from volatility in the Government of Canada interest rate by fixing the rate at the time the forwards were entered into for the expected term of the private bonds. The credit spread risk has not been hedged and is therefore subject to volatility.
Deferred debt issuance costs relating to the existing term debt are expected to be expensed proportionately at the time of any repayment and are expected to be less than $0.3 million. We also expect to settle between $30 million and $80 million of our interest rate swaps at the time we consummate the anticipated transaction. Given current market rates, this will result in a mark to market expense of approximately $1 million to $2 million in the second quarter of 2010 when the early termination of a portion of the term debt is expected to occur. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, in the United States the securities referenced herein. Such securities have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from the registration requirement under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
Construction of new Distribution Centre
---------------------------------------
The Board has approved construction of a replacement distribution centre in Kingston, Ontario to provide greater supply capacity for dry goods and to expand into frozen and refrigerated product distribution from this location for our restaurant owners. Total planned capital expenditures on this facility are estimated to be approximately $45 million, with approximately $20 million to be incurred in 2010. Exploring additional system and corporate benefits through vertical integration is an initiative outlined in our More than a Great Brand strategic plan for 2010 to 2013. When fully operational in the second half of 2011, the facility is expected to serve more than 650 restaurants in eastern Ontario, and Quebec, responding to continued projected growth in that market. As with other vertical integration initiatives, we expect this new facility will deliver important system benefits, including improved efficiency and cost-effective service for our restaurant owners, as well as provide a reasonable return to the Company.
Board declares dividend payment of $0.13 per common share
---------------------------------------------------------
The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.13 per common share, consistent with our previously announced change in dividend rate and targeted payout range. The dividend is payable on June 15th, 2010 to shareholders of record as of May 28th, 2010. Dividends are declared and paid in Canadian dollars to all shareholders with Canadian resident addresses. For U.S. shareholders, dividends paid will be converted to U.S. dollars based on prevailing exchange rates at the time of conversion by Tim Hortons for registered shareholders and by Clearing and Depository Services Inc. for beneficial shareholders.

(2) Total systemwide sales growth includes restaurant level sales at both
Company and Franchise restaurants. Approximately 99.4% of our
consolidated system is franchised as at April 4th, 2010. Systemwide
sales growth is determined using a constant exchange rate, where
noted, to exclude the effects of foreign currency translation. U.S.
dollar sales are converted to Canadian dollar amounts using the
average exchange rate of the base year for the period covered. For
the first quarter of 2010, systemwide sales growth on a constant
currency basis was up 10.0% compared to the first quarter of 2009.
Systemwide sales are important to understanding our business
performance as they impact our franchise royalties and rental income,
as well as our distribution income. Changes in systemwide sales are
driven by changes in average same-store sales and changes in the
number of systemwide restaurants.
