DALLAS, Nov. 07, 2016 -- Fogo de Chão, Inc. (NASDAQ:FOGO) today reported financial results for its 13-week fiscal third quarter ended October 2, 2016.
Key Highlights for the Third Quarter of 2016 compared to the Third Quarter of 2015 Include:
- Total revenue was $69.0 million for the 13-week quarter ending October 2, 2016, which represents 13.2% growth over the same quarter last year or 11.8% growth on a constant currency basis(1).
- Company-owned comparable restaurant sales increased 0.6% on a constant currency basis.
- GAAP net income was $4.6 million, or $0.16 per diluted share.
- Adjusted net income(2) was $4.7 million, or $0.16 per diluted share.
- Opened our second Philadelphia area restaurant in King of Prussia Town Center on July 21, 2016.
(1) In order to assess how the business performed in the current period, the Company has adjusted the prior period on a constant currency basis. Constant currency calculations compare results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. The Company compares the percent change in the results from one period to another period using constant currency to exclude the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. A reconciliation of GAAP revenue to constant currency revenue is included in the accompanying financial data. See also "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
(2) Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure. A reconciliation of GAAP net income to adjusted net income is included in the accompanying financial data. See also "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
“We are very proud of recently being recognized as the best steakhouse in the US in a comprehensive survey conducted by one of America’s leading consumer magazines,” said Larry Johnson, Chief Executive Officer of Fogo de Chão, Inc. “Although the industry experienced a difficult quarter, our quarterly US comparable traffic was 230 and 220 basis points above our peer groups on the Knapp Track High End Steakhouses and Blackbox Upscale/Fine Dining group. The current sales environment continues to be challenging, and we remain committed to the strategies we have in place to grow our top line and believe they are the keys to our long-term earnings growth and shareholder value.”
Third Quarter 2016 Financial Results
Total revenue for the third quarter of Fiscal 2016 was $69.0 million compared to $61.0 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2015. The $8.0 million increase is primarily attributable to new restaurant locations opened in the last 12 months and a $0.8 million favorable foreign exchange impact. On a constant currency basis, revenues for the third quarter increased 11.8% over the same quarter last year. Company-owned comparable restaurant sales increased 0.6% which includes the impact of the Summer Olympics on our Brazil locations.
U.S. restaurant revenue increased 11.5% to $56.8 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2016 from $51.0 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2015 primarily due to U.S. non-comparable restaurant locations, partially offset by U.S. comparable restaurant sales decrease of 1.0%.
Brazil restaurant revenue was $12.2 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2016 compared to $10.0 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2015. The increase in revenue compared to last year was driven largely by a $1.3 million impact attributable to the Summer Olympics and a $0.8 million favorable foreign exchange impact. Brazil comparable restaurant sales for the third quarter increased 9.0%. Excluding the impact of the Summer Olympics, Brazil comparable restaurant sales for the third quarter increased 0.2% over the prior year period.
GAAP net income for the third quarter of Fiscal 2016 was $4.6 million, compared to $7.8 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2015. Adjusted net income in the third quarter of Fiscal 2016 was $4.7 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to $5.5 million, or $0.19 per diluted share in the third quarter of Fiscal 2015 on a constant currency basis. A reconciliation between GAAP net income and adjusted net income is included in the accompanying financial data.
Development Update
As of October 2, 2016, the Company operated 42 company-owned restaurants, ten of which are in Brazil, and one joint venture restaurant in Mexico City.
The Company opened its second Philadelphia area restaurant in King of Prussia Town Center in July. In October, the Company opened its second joint venture restaurant in the Santa Fe business district of Mexico City. The Company currently has four restaurants under construction and plans to open as many as three of these restaurants during the remainder of Fiscal 2016. In addition to the four restaurants under construction, the Company has four signed leases and is negotiating multiple letters of intent for planned 2017 and 2018 Company-owned locations.
Investors are reminded that the actual number and timing of new restaurant openings is subject to a number of factors outside of the Company's control including, but not limited to, weather conditions and factors under the control of landlords, contractors and regulatory/licensing authorities.

| (a) | As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, we believe the presentation of certain results on a constant currency basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors’ ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. We use results on a constant currency basis as one measure to evaluate our performance. We calculate constant currency by retranslating results across all prior periods presented using a derived exchange rate for the most current year periods presented based on actual results. The tables set forth below calculate constant currency at a foreign currency exchange rate of 3.2433 and 3.4973 Brazilian reais to 1 US dollar, which represents the derived exchange rate for the thirteen week and thirty-nine week periods ended October 2, 2016, respectively, calculated as explained above. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP. Results on a constant currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP. | ||||||||
