September 9, 2012

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2012 included in our annual report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the fiscal quarter and three fiscal quarters ended September 9, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 30, 2012.

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued amended guidance related to the presentation of comprehensive income which requires entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive, statements of net income and other comprehensive income. The Company adopted the requirements of the new guidance effective March 25, 2012 for all periods presented. The adoption did not impact the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

2. Segment Information

The following table summarizes revenues, income from operations and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other, which is the measure by which management allocates resources to its segments and which we refer to as Segment Income, for each of our reportable segments.

3. Earnings Per Share

The denominator used in calculating diluted earnings per share for common stock for the third quarter and three fiscal quarters of 2012 does not include 206,780 options to purchase common stock for each period, as the effect of including these options would have been anti-dilutive. The denominator used in calculating diluted earnings per share for common stock for the third quarter of 2011 does not include 105,000 options to purchase common stock or 394,070 options to purchase common stock for the three fiscal quarters of 2011, as the effect of including these options would have been anti-dilutive.

4. Stockholders’ Deficit

5. Open Market Share Repurchase Program

During the third quarter and three fiscal quarters of 2012, the Company repurchased and retired 189,718 and 1,336,215 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $5.9 million and $42.7 million, respectively, under the Company’s open market share repurchase program. In July 2012, the Board of Directors approved an increase to the Company’s open market share repurchase program, which at the time of the approval, resulted in a total remaining authorized amount for additional share repurchases of $200.0 million. As of September 9, 2012, the Company had approximately $197.9 million remaining for future share repurchases under its open market share repurchase program. As of September 9, 2012, the Company had 56,846,578 shares of common stock outstanding. Subsequent to the third quarter of 2012, the Company repurchased and retired an additional 106,573 shares of common stock for a total cost of approximately $3.7 million.

During the third quarter of 2011, the Company repurchased and retired 3,163,060 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $81.9 million, and during the three fiscal quarters of 2011, the Company repurchased and retired 5,268,550 shares of common stock for $129.2 million.

6. Sale of Certain Company-Owned Stores

During the three fiscal quarters of 2012, the Company sold its six remaining Company-owned stores in a certain market to a franchisee. In connection with the sale of these six stores, the Company recorded a minimal pre-tax gain on the sale of the related assets, which was net of a minimal reduction in goodwill. The gain was recorded in general and administrative expense in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. This transaction will not have a material ongoing impact on the Company’s consolidated financial results.

During the third quarter of 2011, the Company sold 30 Company-owned stores to multiple franchisees; and during the three fiscal quarters of 2011, the Company sold 56 Company-owned stores to multiple franchisees. In connection with the sale of these stores, the Company recognized a gain on the sale of assets of approximately $0.8 million during the third quarter of 2011, which was net of a reduction in goodwill of approximately $0.3 million; and recognized a gain of approximately $1.9 million during the three fiscal quarters of 2011, which was net of a reduction in goodwill of approximately $0.7 million. Additionally, the Company incurred other related expenses of approximately $0.3 million during both the third quarter of 2011 and the three fiscal quarters of 2011. These items were recorded in general and administrative expense in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. These transactions will not have a material ongoing impact on the Company’s consolidated financial results.

7. Income Taxes

During the third quarter of 2012, the Company recorded a tax benefit of approximately $0.7 million to reflect an increased tax basis for certain Company assets due to the issuance of final tax regulations during the quarter. Additionally, during the three fiscal quarters of 2012 and in connection with the sale of its six remaining Company-owned stores in a certain market to a franchisee, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset related to the capital loss that resulted from the write-off of the tax basis goodwill associated with the market that was sold. Management believes it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized and provided a valuation allowance of approximately $0.9 million. The valuation allowance was recorded as an increase to the provision for income taxes and increased the Company’s effective tax rate in the three fiscal quarters of 2012. On an ongoing basis, management will assess whether it remains more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset will be realized.

During the three fiscal quarters of 2011, the Company reduced its liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to a state income tax matter by approximately $0.5 million. Approximately $0.3 million of the decrease was related to gross unrecognized tax benefits and approximately $0.2 million was related to interest. As a result, approximately $0.2 million was recognized as an income tax benefit and reduced the Company’s effective tax rate in the three fiscal quarters of 2011. The effective tax rate for the third quarter and three fiscal quarters of 2011 was positively impacted by higher wage related credits in 2011.

8. Recapitalization

On March 16, 2012, the Company announced it had completed a recapitalization (the 2012 Recapitalization) in which certain of the Company’s subsidiaries replaced its outstanding 2007 fixed rate notes and variable funding notes (the 2007 Notes) with new notes (the Notes) issued pursuant to an asset-backed securitization. The Notes consist of $1.575 billion of Series 2012-1 5.216% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2 (the Fixed Rate Notes) and $100 million of Series 2012-1 Variable Funding Senior Secured Notes, Class A-1 (the Variable Funding Notes). The Notes were issued in a private placement transaction by indirect, bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries that hold substantially all of the Company’s revenue-generating assets, excluding Company-owned stores. The Notes are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company and secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company, including royalty income from all domestic stores, domestic supply chain income, international income and intellectual property. The Fixed Rate Notes have an anticipated maturity of seven years and a legal maturity of 30 years. If the Fixed Rate Notes are not repaid in full by the anticipated repayment date, substantially all the cash generated by the Company less a specific amount allocated to the Company as a management fee must be used to pay down outstanding principal and interest that may be higher at that time. The Variable Funding Notes have an anticipated maturity of five years, with the option for up to two one-year renewals (subject to certain conditions, including a minimum debt service coverage ratio), and a legal maturity of 30 years. In addition, the Company may voluntarily prepay, in part or in full, the Fixed Rate Notes at any time, subject to certain make-whole interest obligations. The Variable Funding Notes were undrawn on the closing date.

The Fixed Rate Notes have scheduled principal payments of $17.7 million in 2012, $23.6 million in each of 2013 and 2014, $29.5 million in 2015, $37.4 million in 2016, $39.4 million in each of 2017 and 2018, and $9.8 million in 2019. During the three fiscal quarters of 2012, the Company made principal payments of approximately $11.8 million. If the Company meets certain conditions, including a maximum leverage ratio of 4.5x total debt to EBITDA, it may elect to not make the scheduled principal payments. If the leverage ratio subsequently exceeds 4.5x, it must make up the payments it had elected not to make.

The Notes are subject to certain financial and non-financial covenants, including a debt service coverage calculation, as defined in the related agreements. The covenants, among other things, limit the ability of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries to declare dividends, make loans or advances or enter into transactions with affiliates. The Notes also include a financial covenant based on the achievement of a minimum amount of global retail sales. In the event that certain covenants are not met, the Notes may become due and payable on an accelerated schedule. As of September 9, 2012 the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

The Company used a portion of the proceeds from the 2012 Recapitalization to repay approximately $1.447 billion in outstanding principal under the 2007 Notes. The proceeds were also used to pay accrued interest on the 2007 Notes and transaction-related fees and expenses in connection with the 2012 Recapitalization and to fund a reserve account for the payment of interest on the Notes.

On March 16, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a $3.00 per share special cash dividend on its outstanding common stock totaling $171.1 million, which was paid on April 2, 2012 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 26, 2012. Additionally, pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions in the Company’s underlying stock option plans, on April 2, 2012, the Company made a corresponding cash payment of approximately $13.5 million on certain stock options, reduced the exercise price on certain other stock options by an equivalent per share amount and, in certain circumstances, both reduced the stock option exercise price and made a cash payment for amounts totaling $3.00 per share. On April 2, 2012, the Company also accrued an estimated $2.4 million for payments to be made as certain performance-based restricted stock grants vest. The dividend and related dividend equivalent payments were funded with the remaining proceeds from the 2012 Recapitalization and cash on hand. These anti-dilution payments were accounted for as modifications/settlements and were recorded as increases in total stockholders’ deficit. As of September 9, 2012, total cash paid for common stock dividends and related anti-dilution equivalent payments was approximately $185.5 million and the total estimated liability recorded for future cash payments on certain performance-based restricted stock was approximately $1.5 million. Of the total amount of $187.0 million recorded for common stock dividends and related anti-dilution payments, $10.2 million was recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital and $176.8 million was recorded as an increase in retained deficit.

Table of Contents

During the three fiscal quarters of 2012 and in connection with the 2012 Recapitalization, the Company incurred approximately $10.5 million of net expenses. This consisted primarily of $8.1 million of net write-offs of deferred financing fees and interest rate swap related to the extinguished debt. The Company also incurred $2.1 million of interest expense on the 2007 borrowings subsequent to the closing of the 2012 Recapitalization but prior to the repayment of the 2007 borrowings, resulting in the payment of interest on both the 2007 and 2012 facilities for a short period of time. Further, the Company incurred $0.3 million of other net 2012 Recapitalization-related general and administrative expenses, including stock compensation expenses, payroll taxes related to the payments made to certain stock option holders and legal and professional fees incurred in connection with the 2012 Recapitalization.

In connection with the 2012 Recapitalization, the Company recorded an additional $32.5 million of deferred financing costs as an asset in the consolidated balance sheet during the three fiscal quarters of 2012. This amount, in addition to the $7.4 million recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at January 1, 2012, is expected to be amortized into interest expense over each of the next seven years.

9. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements enable the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The Company classifies and discloses assets and liabilities carried at fair value in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The fair values of the Company’s cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The following tables summarize the carrying amounts and fair values of certain assets at September 9, 2012 and January 1, 2012:
