“First-quarter results exceeded our expectations, driven by increased digital sales and strong consumer demand, highlighted by a record setting Valentine’s Day with specialty doughnuts available in 33 countries around the world,” said Josh Charlesworth, CEO.

“Our strategy of making fresh Krispy Kreme doughnuts more available globally is providing impressive results,” continued Charlesworth. “We are modernizing how we make and move doughnuts to ensure high quality, profitable growth. Our Delivered Fresh Daily expansion is accelerating into more grocers, convenience stores and quick service restaurants. We’re excited about our recently announced agreement with McDonald’s, which is expected to more than 12,000 new points of access in the U.S. by the end of 2026. We’ll support much of this nationwide rollout using existing capacity, while adding distribution with other major customers as we grow,” he said.

First Quarter 2024 Consolidated Results (vs Q1 2023)

Krispy Kreme’s first quarter results reflect continued year-over-year growth as the Company continued to execute upon our omni-channel strategy. Net revenue grew 5.7% to $442.7 million, compared to $419.0 million. GAAP net loss was $6.7 million compared to prior year net income of $1.6 million. GAAP diluted loss per share was $(0.05), a decline of $(0.05) from the same quarter last year.

Total company organic revenue grew 6.7%, fueled by a 19.4% increase in Points of Access and the success of global brand activations including Valentine’s Day and St. Patrick’s Day doughnuts among others. Digital sales as a percent of retail sales increased 340 basis points to 23.0% of sales, due to a focus on owned channel improvements and increasing product availability through third parties.

Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter grew 5.9% to $58.2 million, with Adjusted EBITDA margins flat at 13.1%. Adjusted Net Income, diluted declined 25.8% to $11.3 million in the quarter. Adjusted Diluted EPS declined to $0.07 from $0.09 in the same quarter last year, primarily driven by increased depreciation and amortization and interest expenses, as the Company continues to invest in global expansion.

First Quarter 2024 Segment Results (vs Q1 2023)

U.S.: In the U.S. segment, net revenue grew $14.6 million, or 5.2%, with organic revenue growth of 7.4%. Revenue growth was driven by increased Points of Access (“POA”) as we continue to accelerate our Delivered Fresh Daily strategy, combined with successful specialty doughnut collections linked to seasonal events. The gap between organic revenue growth and net revenue growth was primarily attributable to the exit of the Branded Sweet Treats business.

Sales per hub in the U.S. increased 6.5% to $4.9 million while DFD average sales per door per week remained stable at $640. Digital sales as a percentage of U.S. Fresh retail doughnut sales increased 480 basis points to 19.3% benefiting from successful marketing integrations and an expanded delivery radius.

U.S. Adjusted EBITDA increased 10.6% to $42.6 million with Adjusted EBITDA margin expansion of 70 basis points to 14.4% tied to labor and waste optimization and productivity benefits from the Company’s Hub and Spoke model.

International: In the International segment, which is now made up of all equity owned businesses including Japan and Canada, saw net revenue grow $12.8 million, or 11.4%. International organic revenue grew 9.8%, driven by record POA growth of 917, or nearly 24% growth, and successful marketing activations.

International Adjusted EBITDA grew 8.2% to $20.5 million with adjusted EBITDA margin declining approximately 50 basis points, as lower volumes in the U.K. continued to more than offset strength in Canada and Mexico.

Market Development: In the Market Development segment, which is now comprised of our franchise businesses both domestically in the U.S. and internationally, net revenue and organic revenue declined $3.6 million, or 14.1%, largely driven by a one-off timing impact of equipment sales in the prior year.

Market Development Adjusted EBITDA grew 3.0% to $11.9 million. Adjusted EBITDA margins expanded 900 basis points to 54.1%, due to the timing of lower margin equipment sales and the expansion of the Company’s Hub and Spoke model throughout international franchises.

Balance Sheet and Capital Expenditures

During the first quarter of 2024, the Company invested $29.1 million in capital expenditures, driven primarily by investments in the Hub and Spoke model in preparation for the U.S. expansion of our Delivered Fresh Daily network, information technology investments, and continued expansion at Insomnia Cookies.

As of March 31, 2024 the Company has total available liquidity of $133.6 million, including $33.1 million of cash and cash equivalents as well as undrawn capacity of roughly $100.5 million under available credit facilities. In 2023, the Company extended maturities of its primary debt facility to 2028 and as of March 31, 2024 has total debt of $946.2 million and net debt of $913.1 million.

2024 Financial Guidance

Krispy Kreme reaffirms the following guidance for the full year 2024 (vs FY2023)

Net Revenue growth of +5% to +7%
Organic Revenue growth of +6% to +8%
Adjusted EBITDA growth of +8% to +11%
Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.27 to $0.31
Income Tax rate between 26% and 28%
Capital Expenditures of 7% to 8% of net revenue
Interest Expense, net of $55 million to $65 million

The above guidance assumes nominal impact from foreign exchange. The Company continues to expect to reduce its net leverage in 2024, as it makes progress towards its 2026 goal of approximately 2.0x to 2.5x net leverage.

On October 3, 2023, the Company announced it is exploring strategic alternatives for Insomnia Cookies. Guidance for the full year 2024 includes operations from Insomnia Cookies.

Fresh Revenues from Hubs with Spokes: Fresh Revenues include product sales generated from our Doughnut Shop business (including digital), as well as DFD sales, but excluding sales from Branded Sweet Treats. It also excludes all Insomnia Cookies revenues as the measure is focused on the Krispy Kreme business.

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, 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.

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.
