Jack in the Box® system same-store sales increased 6.6 percent for the quarter. Company same-store sales increased 4.1 percent in the third quarter driven by average check growth of 20.2 percent while transactions decreased 16.1 percent.
Darin Harris, chief executive officer, said, "In my first six weeks as CEO, I have witnessed the nimbleness and passion within this brand. I am proud of the way our franchisees, the teams in our restaurants, our employees, and our partners have responded swiftly to the changing occasions of our consumers amidst the pandemic. Our strong performance in the third quarter is a testament to this agile approach. Our focus on value combined with indulgent and flavorful products continues to drive overall performance for the brand.
This strong performance accelerated throughout the third quarter, and has continued thus far into the fourth quarter. I am excited about taking the learnings from this uncertain time and using them to fuel the remaining part of 2020 as well as our strategy into 2021."
Earnings from continuing operations were $32.2 million, or $1.40 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared with $13.5 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal 2019.
Operating Earnings Per Share(1), a non-GAAP measure, were $1.37 in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared with $1.07 in the prior year quarter. A reconciliation of non-GAAP Operating Earnings Per Share to GAAP results is provided below, with additional information included in the attachment to this release.

Adjusted EBITDA(2), a non-GAAP measure, was $72.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared with $57.8 million for the prior year quarter.
Results for the third quarter reflect the business and financial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, which include the following:
- Restaurant traffic declined substantially, although did improve versus the last five weeks of the second quarter. Check growth continued to drive overall same-store sales growth.
- Higher costs for delivery fees and supplies related to COVID-19 increased Occupancy and Other as a percentage of company restaurant sales by 90 basis points.
- Higher costs for a new emergency paid sick leave program increased Labor as a percentage of company restaurant sales by 30 basis points.
- The company did not provide any additional relief to franchisees in the form of marketing fee reduction or postponement or rent postponement in the third quarter. The marketing fee reduction in April, however, did impact slightly over two weeks of the third quarter, resulting in lower Advertising costs by $0.1 million, and reduced Franchise Contributions for Advertising by approximately $2.9 million.
- The company implemented a short-term cash preservation strategy, and as such, did not buy back any shares in the third quarter. The company also significantly reduced capital spending.
Restaurant-Level Margin(3), a non-GAAP measure, decreased by 160 basis points to 25.4 percent of company restaurant sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 from 27.0 percent a year ago. The decrease was due primarily to wage inflation as well as higher delivery fees and supply costs related to COVID-19. Food and packaging costs, as a percentage of company restaurant sales, decreased 20 basis points in the quarter driven by menu price increases and favorable mix shift, partially offset by increases in ingredient costs. Commodity costs increased 3.6 percent in the quarter as compared with the prior year, due primarily to increases in beef.
Franchise-Level Margin(3), a non-GAAP measure, increased by $5.4 million in the third quarter, primarily driven by higher royalties and rental revenues as franchise same-store sales increased. The company did not provide any additional relief to franchisees through postponements or reductions of rent or marketing in the third quarter.
Franchise-Level Margin(3), as a percentage of total franchise revenues, was 41.5 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The company adopted the new lease accounting standard, ASC 842, in fiscal 2020, which resulted in grossing up both franchise rental revenues and franchise occupancy expenses by approximately $9.7 million and $9.9 million respectively in the third quarter. Without these adjustments, Franchise-Level Margin(3) would have been 44.4 percent of total franchise revenues. This compares with 42.4 percent in the prior year.
As a percentage of system-wide sales, G&A was 1.1 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared with 2.5 percent in the prior year quarter. The $10.6 million decrease in G&A, which excludes advertising, was primarily driven by:
- a decrease of $7.0 million in costs related to litigation matters versus prior year;
- mark-to-market adjustments on investments supporting the company's non-qualified retirement plans resulting in a $2.6 million year-over-year decrease in G&A; and
- a $2.5 million decrease in incentive compensation.
- These increases were partially offset by a $2.6 million increase in insurance.
Advertising costs, which are included in SG&A, decreased $0.1 million in the third quarter due to the reduction in marketing fees for April. In the third quarter of fiscal 2020, SG&A expenses decreased by $10.7 million and were 5.6 percent of revenues compared with 11.0 percent in the prior year quarter.
Impairment and other charges, net, increased $4.0 million in the third quarter, driven by a $5.7 million gain on sale of a restaurant property in the prior year quarter.
Interest expense, net, decreased by $20.8 million in the third quarter driven by the termination of our interest rate swaps in the prior year quarter.
The effective tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 2020 was 27.9 percent, an improvement versus the second quarter, primarily driven by the improvement in operating earnings before income tax and nontaxable gains from mark-to-market adjustments associated with investments supporting the company's non-qualified retirement plans.
Capital Allocation and Liquidity Position
The company did not repurchase any shares in the third quarter of fiscal 2020, and as announced on April 15, 2020, temporarily suspended its share repurchase program. This leaves approximately $122 million remaining under share repurchase programs authorized by its Board of Directors, consisting of $22 million remaining that expire in November 2020 and approximately $100 million remaining that expire in November 2021.
The company also announced today that on July 31, 2020, its Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.40 per share on the company's common stock. The dividend is payable on September 3, 2020, to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 18, 2020. The reinstatement of the dividend reflects the strong financial health of the company and continued commitment to shareholders.
As of the end of the third quarter, the company had approximately $196.9 million in cash, of which $159.5 million was unrestricted cash.

(1) Franchised restaurant sales represent sales at franchised restaurants and are revenues of our franchisees. System sales include company and franchised restaurant sales. We do not record franchised sales as revenues; however, our royalty revenues, marketing fees and percentage rent revenues are calculated based on a percentage of franchised sales. We believe franchised and system restaurant sales information is useful to investors as they have a direct effect on the company's profitability. |

JACK IN THE BOX INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASUREMENTS TO GAAP RESULTS
(Unaudited)
To supplement the consolidated financial statements, which are presented in accordance with GAAP, the company uses the following non-GAAP measures: Operating Earnings Per Share, Adjusted EBITDA, Restaurant-Level Margin and Franchise-Level Margin. Management believes that these measurements, when viewed with the company's results of operations in accordance with GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations in the tables below, provide useful information about operating performance and period-over-period changes, and provide additional information that is useful for evaluating the operating performance of the company's core business without regard to potential distortions.
Operating Earnings Per Share
Operating Earnings Per Share represents diluted earnings per share from continuing operations on a GAAP basis excluding gains or losses on the sale of company-operated restaurants, restructuring charges, the gain on sale of corporate office building, pension settlement charges, loss on early termination of interest rate, and the excess tax benefits from share-based compensation arrangements which are now recorded as a component of income tax expense versus equity prior to fiscal year 2019. Operating Earnings Per Share should be considered as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, analysis of results as reported under U.S. GAAP or other similarly titled measures of other companies. Management believes Operating Earnings Per Share provides investors with a meaningful supplement of the company’s operating performance and period-over-period changes without regard to potential distortions.
Below is a reconciliation of non-GAAP Operating Earnings Per Share to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations. Figures may not add due to rounding.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA represents net earnings on a GAAP basis excluding earnings or losses from discontinued operations, income taxes, interest expense, net, pension settlement charges, gains or losses on the sale of company-operated restaurants, impairment and other charges, net, depreciation and amortization, and the amortization of franchise tenant improvement allowances and other. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, analysis of results as reported under U.S. GAAP or other similarly titled measures of other companies. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting the company's ongoing cash earnings, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced.

Restaurant-Level Margin
Restaurant-Level Margin is defined as company restaurant sales less restaurant operating costs (food and packaging, labor, and occupancy costs) and is neither required by, nor presented in accordance with GAAP. Restaurant-Level Margin excludes revenues and expenses of our franchise operations and certain costs, such as selling, general, and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, impairment and other charges, net, gains or losses on the sale of company-operated restaurants, and other costs that are considered normal operating costs. As such, Restaurant-Level Margin is not indicative of the overall results of the company and does not accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders because of the exclusion of corporate-level expenses. Restaurant-Level Margin should be considered as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, analysis of results as reported under GAAP or other similarly titled measures of other companies. The company is presenting Restaurant-Level Margin because it believes that it provides a meaningful supplement to net earnings of the company's core business operating results, as well as a comparison to those of other similar companies. Management utilizes Restaurant-Level Margin as a key performance indicator to evaluate the profitability of company-owned restaurants.
