Chipotle ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2020 RESULTS

Q1 COMPs grew 3.3%, Digital Sales grew 80.8% and accounted for 26.3% of sales



NEWPORT BEACH, Calf. – April 21, 2020 – Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE: CMG) today reported financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Revenue increased 7.8% to $1.4 billion

·

Comparable restaurant sales increased 3.3% with a 1.4% decrease in transactions including a 1.3% leap day benefit

o

Through the end of February, comparable restaurant sales increased 14.4% with 10.7% transactions growth including a 2.1% leap day benefit and a restaurant level operating margin of 21.8%

o

Comparable restaurant sales during the month of March were negatively impacted by the impact of COVID-19, resulting in a decline of 16.0%

·

Digital sales grew 80.8% and accounted for 26.3% of sales for the quarter

·

Restaurant level operating margin was 17.6%, a decrease of 340 basis points

·

Diluted earnings per share was $2.70,  net of a $0.38 after-tax impact from expenses related to restaurant asset impairment, corporate restructuring, and certain other costs, a 13.7%  decrease from $3.13. Adjusted diluted earnings per share excluding these charges was $3.08, a 9.4%  decrease from $3.40.1

·

Opened 19 new restaurants including one relocation and closed two restaurants during the quarter; and about 100 restaurants are temporarily closed as a result of COVID-19, mainly inside malls and shopping centers as well as 17 locations in Europe

1 Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations to GAAP measures and further information are set forth in the table at the end of this press release.

I am grateful to all our employees for their commitment and efforts in providing guests access to our safe, delicious, high-quality food made from real ingredients during this unprecedented time," said Brian Niccol, Chairman and CEO, Chipotle. "Investing in digital over the last several years has allowed us to quickly pivot our business with Q1 digital sales reaching our highest ever quarterly level of $372 million. Our strong brand, business model and balance sheet give us the confidence to not only weather this downturn but continue to judiciously invest in key areas so that when we come out the other side, we will emerge even stronger."

COVID-19 and Liquidity Update:

Chipotle remains focused on the safety and well-being of our employees, guests, and our food as we navigate the challenges presented by COVID-19. We are dedicated to keeping our restaurants stocked with gloves, hand sanitizers, masks, and a tamper evident packaging seal for contactless mobile pickup and delivery orders. Our industry leading food safety protocols result in a culture of continuous improvement to ensure that our customers have consistently excellent experiences. In response to COVID-19, we quickly made critical decisions including: eliminated non-essential travel, implemented work from home, significantly expanded employee benefits, increased sanitization of high touch, high traffic areas, and increased the frequency of personal hygiene practices. All of these initiatives give our employees and customers confidence that Chipotle remains steadfast in our commitment

 


 

 

to keeping them safe.

Chipotle has a strong financial position with $909.2 million in cash, restricted cash, and short-term investments as of March 31, 2020 and no debt. In addition, while the Company doesn’t intend to utilize the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan provision of the recently passed Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, we expect to see a liquidity benefit of about $100 million primarily from deferring social security tax payments and accelerating tax depreciation in previous returns as allowed by the CARES Act. 

As sales fell quickly from the impact of COVID-19, we proactively implemented a number of actions to reduce cash outlays and expenses, including the suspension of our stock buyback program. As a result of these efforts and our solid balance sheet as well as the added liquidity from CARES tax deferrals, we believe we have enough cash to sustain us for well over a year. However, if the recovery takes longer than expected, we have the ability to make additional adjustments as needed.

Results for the three months ended March  31, 2020:  

Revenue in the first quarter increased to $1.4 billion, an increase of 7.8% compared with the same quarter a year ago, driven by a 3.3% increase in comparable restaurant sales that includes a 1.3% benefit related to leap day. Comparable restaurant sales improved due to a 4.9% increase in average check, which includes a 2.0% benefit from menu price increases that were implemented during 2019, partially offset by a 1.4% decrease in comparable restaurant transactions. Cadence of monthly comparable restaurant sales during the quarter was: January +12.1%, February +17.1% (including 4.3% benefit of leap day), and March -16.0%. Comparable restaurant sales troughed at -35.0% during the week ending March 29th and have improved in April with the past week, adjusted for Easter, being down in the high teens.

Digital sales grew 80.8% year over year to $371.8 million, the Company’s highest ever quarterly level, and represented 26.3% of sales. After our dining rooms closed to help control the spread of COVID-19,  Chipotle moved swiftly by driving further investments towards digital and delivery designed to reduce friction while increasing convenient access. This included reprioritizing marketing efforts by offering free delivery from March 15 to at least early May, shifting media spend from live sports to more online and streaming platforms, and announcing a national delivery partnership with Uber Eats. As a result, digital sales for the month of March grew 102.6% year over year and represented 37.6% of sales.

We opened 19 new restaurants including one relocation during the quarter and closed two restaurants, bringing the total restaurant count to 2,638. We have several restaurants set to open and another 49 under construction; however, we have begun to see construction delays and have preemptively delayed groundbreaking on the majority of projects in April.

Food, beverage and packaging costs were 32.8% of revenue, an increase of 60 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to food expenses related to Chipotle Rewards and higher costs of several ingredients, partially offset by the benefit of menu price increases in late 2019 and, to a lesser extent, lower paper costs.

Restaurant level operating margin was 17.6%, a decrease from 21.0% in the first quarter of 2019 driven primarily by wage inflation at the crew level, increased marketing and promotional spend, higher costs of several ingredients, and delivery expense associated with increased delivery sales, partially offset by leverage from the comparable restaurant sales increase. The sudden change to our business due to COVID-19 in March resulted in a short term, outsized impact to labor and food costs. Labor costs were elevated as we accommodated crew needs, shifted hours to support our growing digital business, and made additional employee investments in the form of extra assistance pay and elevated quarterly bonuses. Similarly, our food costs were elevated as we worked to right size food purchases to align with the new sales level.

General and administrative expenses for the quarter were $106.5 million on a GAAP basis, or $99.8 million on a non-GAAP basis, excluding $5.2 million for charges related primarily to the 2017 agreement with our former Executive Chairman Steve Ells and $1.4 million related to transformation expenses. GAAP and non-GAAP general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2020 also include underlying general and administrative expenses totaling $77.7 million, $15.7 million related to non-cash stock compensation, $4.3 million related payroll taxes on stock option exercises, and $2.1 million related to our All Manager Conference that was moved to 2021 due to COVID-19.    

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was negative 3.4%, a decrease from an effective tax rate of 22.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to excess tax benefits related to option exercises and equity vesting in the quarter.

Net income was $76.4 million, or $2.70 per diluted share, a decrease from $88.1 million, or $3.13 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2019. Excluding the impact of restaurant closure costs, certain other costs, and corporate restructuring adjusted net

 


 

 

income was $87.2 million and adjusted diluted earnings per share was $3.08.

Chipotle also announced today it has signed a Deferred Prosecution Agreement to resolve the previously disclosed investigation conducted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California, in conjunction with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Office of Criminal Investigations related to past food safety incidents beginning in 2015. Pursuant to the Agreement, the government has agreed to take no action relating to these past incidents for three years provided that Chipotle complies with its obligations under the Agreement, which include paying a $25 million fine (consisting of a $10 million payment by June 1, 2020, followed by three separate payments of $5 million each to be paid every 30 days after the first payment) and enhancing and maintaining its existing comprehensive compliance program, which is designed to ensure that it complies with all applicable federal and state food safety laws.

More information will be available in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which will be filed with the SEC by the end of April.

Outlook

Given the level of volatility and uncertainty surrounding the future impact of COVID-19 on the broader US economy and any specific impact to our company, we are withdrawing our previous fiscal 2020 guidance related to comparable restaurant sales growth, new restaurant openings, and effective full year tax rate.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES 

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

(unaudited)



The following provides a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented in the text above to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.



Adjusted net income is net income excluding restaurant asset impairment, corporate restructuring, and certain other costs. Adjusted general and administrative expense is general and administrative expense excluding certain other costs and transformation expenses. We present these non-GAAP measures in order to facilitate meaningful evaluation of our operating performance across periods. These adjustments are intended to provide greater transparency of underlying performance and to allow investors to evaluate our business on the same basis as our management, which uses these non-GAAP measures in evaluating the company’s performance. Our adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and adjusted general and administrative expenses measures may not be comparable to other companies’ adjusted measures. These adjustments are not necessarily indicative of what our actual financial performance would have been during the periods presented and should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, our results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further details regarding these adjustments are included in the tables below.
