STARBUCKS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
|
Note 1:
|
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|
Financial Statement Preparation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of
December 27, 2015
, and for
the quarter
s ended
December 27, 2015
and
December 28, 2014
, have been prepared by Starbucks Corporation under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the financial information for
the quarter
s ended
December 27, 2015
and
December 28, 2014
reflects all adjustments and accruals, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“10-Q”), Starbucks Corporation is referred to as “Starbucks,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our.”
The financial information as of
September 27, 2015
is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended
September 27, 2015
(“fiscal
2015
”) included in Item 8 in the Fiscal
2015
Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “10-K”). The information included in this 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the footnotes and management’s discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial statements in the 10-K.
The results of operations for
the quarter
ended
December 27, 2015
are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved for the entire fiscal year ending
October 2, 2016
("fiscal
2016
"). Additionally, our 2016 fiscal year will include 53 weeks, with the 53rd week falling in our fourth fiscal quarter.
Stock Split
On April 9, 2015, we effected a
two
-for-one stock split of our
$0.001
par value common stock for shareholders of record as of March 30, 2015. All share and per-share data in our consolidated financial statements and notes has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this stock split. We adjusted shareholders' equity to reflect the stock split by reclassifying an amount equal to the par value of the additional shares arising from the split from retained earnings to common stock during the second quarter of fiscal 2015, resulting in
no
net impact to shareholders' equity on our consolidated balance sheets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance on the recognition and measurement of financial instruments. This guidance retains the current accounting for classifying and measuring investments in debt securities and loans, but requires equity investments to be measured at fair value with subsequent changes recognized in net income, except for those accounted for under the equity method or requiring consolidation. The guidance also changes the accounting for investments without a readily determinable fair value and that do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value. A policy election can be made for these investments whereby estimated fair value may be measured at cost and adjusted in subsequent periods for any impairment or changes in observable prices of identical or similar investments. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and it will become effective for us at the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2019.
In November 2015, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation of deferred income taxes that requires deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with related valuation allowances, to be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. As a result, each tax jurisdiction will now only have one net noncurrent deferred tax asset or liability. The new guidance does not change the existing requirement that prohibits offsetting deferred tax liabilities from one jurisdiction against deferred tax assets of another jurisdiction. During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, we elected to early-adopt this guidance retrospectively. The following table summarizes the adjustments made to conform prior period classifications with the new guidance (

In September 2015, the FASB issued guidance on the recognition of adjustments to preliminary amounts recognized in a business combination, which removes the requirement to retrospectively account for these adjustments. The guidance will become effective for us at the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2017. We will apply the guidance prospectively and do not expect the adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance on the subsequent measurement of inventory, which changes the measurement from lower of cost or market to lower of cost and net realizable value. The guidance will require prospective application at the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2018, but permits adoption in an earlier period. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and the timing of adoption.
In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance on the financial statement presentation of debt issuance costs. This guidance requires debt issuance costs to be presented on the balance sheet as a reduction of the related debt liability rather than an asset. The guidance will become effective for us at the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2017 and will only result in an immaterial change in presentation of these costs on our consolidated balance sheets.
In February 2015, the FASB issued guidance that changes the evaluation criteria for consolidation and related disclosure requirements. This guidance introduces evaluation criteria specific to limited partnerships and other similar entities, as well as amends the criteria for evaluating variable interest entities with which the reporting entity is involved and certain investment funds. The guidance will become effective for us at the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2017. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance outlining a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers that supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. This guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The original effective date of the guidance would have required us to adopt at the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2018. In July 2015, the FASB approved an optional one-year deferral of the effective date. The new guidance may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. We are currently evaluating the overall impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements, as well as the expected timing and method of adoption. Based on our preliminary assessment, we determined the adoption will change the timing of recognition and classification of our stored value card breakage income, which is currently recognized using the remote method and recorded in net interest income and other. The new guidance will require application of the proportional method and classification within total net revenues on our consolidated statements of earnings. Additionally, the new guidance requires enhanced disclosures, including revenue recognition policies to identify performance obligations to customers and significant judgments in measurement and recognition. We are continuing our assessment, which may identify other impacts.
In April 2014, the FASB issued guidance that changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations. To qualify as a discontinued operation under the amended guidance, a component or group of components of an entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale must represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the entity's operations and financial results. This guidance also expands related disclosure requirements. The guidance became effective for us on a prospective basis at the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2016 and had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Acquisitions and Divestitures
|
Fiscal 2016
In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, we sold our
49%
ownership interest in our Spanish joint venture, Starbucks Coffee España, S.L. ("Starbucks Spain"), to our joint venture partner, Sigla S.A. (Grupo Vips), for a total purchase price of
$30.2 million
. This transaction resulted in a gain of
$0.6 million
, which was included in net interest income and other on the consolidated statements of earnings for the quarter ended
December 27, 2015
.
Fiscal 2015
On
September 23, 2014
, we entered into a tender offer bid agreement with Starbucks Coffee Japan, Ltd. ("Starbucks Japan"), at the time a
39.5%
owned equity method investment, and our former joint venture partner, Sazaby League, Ltd. ("Sazaby"), to acquire the remaining
60.5%
ownership interest in Starbucks Japan for approximately
$876 million
, through a two-step tender offer. On
October 31, 2014
, we acquired a controlling interest in Starbucks Japan by funding the first tender offer step with
$509 million
in offshore cash. We assumed full ownership in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 by completing the second tender offer step, and completed the related cash-out procedure during the remainder of fiscal
2015
, which utilized a combined total of
$362 million
in offshore cash. The remaining amount of the cash-out procedure is immaterial to our consolidated financial statements and represents cash that was unclaimed by minority shareholders, which was recorded in accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. There are no legal restrictions on the remaining unclaimed balance.

The following table summarizes the final allocation of the total consideration to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of
October 31, 2014

The balance of goodwill and the gross carrying value of acquired intangible assets declined
$86.3 million
and
$34.2 million
to
$729.3 million
and
$288.8 million
, respectively, from the acquisition date to
December 27, 2015
, due to foreign currency translation. Accumulated amortization related to the acquired intangible assets was
$51.8 million
as of
December 27, 2015
.
As a result of this acquisition, we remeasured the carrying value of our preexisting
39.5%
equity method investment to fair value, which resulted in a pre-tax gain of
$390.6 million
that was recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and was presented separately as gain resulting from acquisition of joint venture within other income on our consolidated statements of earnings.
Note 3:
Derivative Financial Instruments
Interest Rates
Depending on market conditions, we enter into interest rate swap agreements to hedge the variability in cash flows due to changes in benchmark interest rates related to anticipated debt issuances. These agreements are cash settled at the time of the pricing of the related debt. The effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") and is subsequently reclassified to interest expense over the life of the related debt.
Foreign Currency
To reduce cash flow volatility from foreign currency fluctuations, we enter into forward and swap contracts to hedge portions of cash flows of anticipated intercompany royalty payments, inventory purchases, and intercompany borrowing and lending activities. The effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is recorded in AOCI and is subsequently reclassified to revenue, cost of sales including occupancy costs, or net interest income and other, respectively, when the hedged exposure affects net earnings.
We also enter into forward contracts to hedge the foreign currency exposure of our net investment in certain foreign operations. The effective portion of the derivative's gain or loss is recorded in AOCI and will be subsequently reclassified to net earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.
10
To mitigate the foreign exchange risk of certain balance sheet items, we enter into foreign currency forward contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments. Gains and losses from these derivatives are largely offset by the financial impact of translating foreign currency denominated payables and receivables; both are recorded in net interest income and other.
Commodities
Depending on market conditions, we enter into coffee futures contracts and collars (the combination of a purchased call option and a sold put option) to hedge a portion of anticipated cash flows under our price-to-be-fixed green coffee contracts, which are described further in
Note 5
, Inventories. The effective portion of each derivative's gain or loss is recorded in AOCI and is subsequently reclassified to cost of sales including occupancy costs when the hedged exposure affects net earnings.
To mitigate the price uncertainty of a portion of our future purchases of dairy products and diesel fuel, we enter into dairy swap contracts, futures and collars that are not designated as hedging instruments. Gains and losses from these derivatives are recorded in net interest income and other and help to offset price fluctuations on our dairy purchases and the financial impact of diesel fuel fluctuations on our shipping costs, which are included in cost of sales including occupancy costs on our consolidated statements of earnings.

There were no transfers between levels and there was no significant activity within Level 3 instruments during the periods presented. The fair values of any financial instruments presented above exclude the impact of netting assets and liabilities when a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists.

Other merchandise held for sale includes, among other items, serveware and tea. Inventory levels vary due to seasonality, commodity market supply and price fluctuations.
As of
December 27, 2015
, we had committed to purchasing green coffee totaling
$701 million
under fixed-price contracts and an estimated
$353 million
under price-to-be-fixed contracts. As of
December 27, 2015
, approximately
$28 million
of our price-to-be-fixed contracts were effectively fixed through the use of futures contracts. Price-to-be-fixed contracts are purchase commitments whereby the quality, quantity, delivery period, and other negotiated terms are agreed upon, but the date, and therefore the price, at which the base “C” coffee commodity price component will be fixed has not yet been established. For most contracts, either Starbucks or the seller has the option to “fix” the base “C” coffee commodity price prior to the delivery date. For other contracts, Starbucks and the seller may agree upon pricing parameters determined by the base "C" coffee commodity price. Until prices are fixed, we estimate the total cost of these purchase commitments. We believe, based on relationships established with our suppliers in the past, the risk of non-delivery on these purchase commitments is remote.

Potential dilutive shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options (both vested and nonvested) and nonvested RSUs, calculated using the treasury stock method. The calculation of dilutive shares outstanding excludes out-of-the-money stock options (i.e., such options’ exercise prices were greater than the average market price of our common shares for the period) because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. Out-of-the-money stock options totaled approximately
2.4 million
and
7.8 million
as of
December 27, 2015
and
December 28, 2014
, respectively.

General
Our fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to September 30. All references to store counts, including data for new store openings, are reported net of store closures, unless otherwise noted. Our 2016 fiscal year will include 53 weeks, with the 53rd week falling in our fourth fiscal quarter.
Overview
Starbucks
first
quarter results reflect strong contributions from all reportable segments and our continued ability to make disciplined investments in our business and our partners (employees). Consolidated total net revenues increased
12%
to
$5.4 billion
, primarily driven by global comparable store sales growth of
8%
, incremental revenues from 1,693 net new store openings over the last 12 months and incremental revenues from the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan. These increases were partially offset by $107 million of net unfavorable foreign currency translation, or a reduction of revenue growth by approximately 2% over the prior year first quarter. Consolidated operating income increased $143 million, or 16%, to $1.1 billion. Operating margin expanded 60 basis points to 19.7%, primarily due to sales leverage, partially offset by investments in our partners (employees) and digital platforms, largely in the Americas segment.
The Americas segment continued its strong performance in the
first
quarter, growing revenues by
11%
to
$3.7 billion
, primarily driven by comparable store sales growth of
9%
, comprised of a
5%
increase in average ticket and a
4%
increase in transactions, as well as revenues from 573 net new store openings over the past 12 months. Growth in our core beverages, including espresso and iced beverages, paired with the success of our food offerings, drove the increase in comparable store sales. Operating margin expanded 80 basis points to
25.1%
, primarily due to sales leverage and lower cost of sales, including favorable dairy costs, partially offset by investments in our store partners and digital platforms. Looking forward, we expect to continue to drive revenue growth and moderate margin expansion through new stores and leveraging investments in both our partners and our digital platforms, such as Mobile Order and Pay.
21
Our China/Asia Pacific segment results reflect the impact of fully consolidating Starbucks Japan since October 31, 2014. Incremental revenues from Starbucks Japan were the primary driver of the 32% increase in segment revenues, to $654 million. Also contributing were increased sales from opening 885 net new stores over the past year, along with an
5%
increase in comparable store sales, primarily driven by a 4% increase in transactions. Operating income grew 17%, to $127 million, while operating margin declined 240 basis points to 19.4%. The overall operating margin decline was primarily due to the 330 basis point impact of the ownership change in Starbucks Japan and increased store operating expenses related to higher compensation and benefits, which was partially offset by sales leverage and higher income from our joint venture operations. We expect this segment will become a more significant contributor to overall company revenue growth in the future as we look forward to continued net new store openings and the sustained performance of our Japan market. We also expect China to continue to move towards being one of our largest international markets, primarily driven by expanding our retail store presence and increasing transaction growth.
Our EMEA segment revenues declined $20 million, or 6%, primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency translation of approximately $26 million, which resulted in an unfavorable impact of approximately 8% on revenue growth over the prior year first quarter, as well as the shift in the portfolio towards more licensed stores. This was partially offset by increased product sales to and royalty revenues from licensees, primarily resulting from the opening of 263 net new licensed stores over the past 12 months and improved comparable store sales. Operating margin expanded 40 basis points to 15.4%, primarily driven by the gains on sales of certain store assets, partially offset by higher cost of sales in our licensed stores operations and, to a lesser extent, deleveraging due to a decrease in retail sales in the region. We expect our continued disciplined licensed store expansion and focus on the customer experience in this region will result in improved operating performance, with operating margin approaching 15% in fiscal 2016.
The Channel Development segment continued to expand customer occasions outside of our retail stores, driving revenue growth of
16%
for the quarter to $512 million, primarily due to higher sales of premium single-serve products, driven by sales of Starbucks- and Tazo-branded K-Cup
®
portion packs, as well as increased foodservice and packaged coffee sales. Operating income grew $36 million, or 23%, to $193 million. Operating margin increased 210 basis points to 37.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, primarily due to strong performance from our North American Coffee Partnership joint venture and leverage on cost of sales and salaries and benefits. As we look ahead, we continue to expect moderate margin expansion driven by growing our premium single-serve category with innovative new beverages, including the ready-to-drink market, as well as developing our international presence.
Fiscal
2016
— Financial Outlook for the Year
For fiscal 2016, we expect revenue growth in excess of 10%, driven by strong comparable store sales slightly above the mid-single digits, the addition of approximately 1,800 net new stores, and a 53rd fiscal week, which is expected to contribute an incremental 2% to our revenue growth rate. Approximately one-half of net new store openings will be in our China/Asia Pacific segment, with approximately 40% coming from the Americas and the remaining 10% from the EMEA segment.
We expect consolidated operating margin to increase slightly in fiscal 2016 when compared to our fiscal 2015 results, and we expect full year 2016 earnings per share to be in the range of $1.84 to $1.86. Leverage on revenue growth and the benefit of a 53rd fiscal week, which we expect to contribute $0.06 to earnings per share in our fiscal fourth quarter, and increased operating efficiencies are expected to drive our fiscal 2016 results as well as fund continued investments in our partners (employees) and digital platforms. These investments may include enhanced wages and benefits, such as food and education benefits, as well as strategic investments in mobile and loyalty platforms, personalization, partnerships and digital marketing. When comparing to our fiscal 2015 earnings per share, it is important to note that fiscal 2015 benefited from a fair value gain adjustment of our preexisting 39.5% ownership interest as a result of acquiring Starbucks Japan, which contributed $0.26 to full year fiscal 2015 earnings per share of $1.82.

Total net revenues for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
increased
$570 million
over the prior year period, primarily due to increased revenues from company-operated stores (contributing $438 million). The increase in company-operated store revenues was driven by an increase in comparable store sales (approximately 8% growth, or $285 million), incremental revenues from 651 net new Starbucks
®
company-operated store openings over the past 12 months (approximately $173 million), and additional revenues from the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan (approximately $105 million). Partially offsetting these increases was the impact of unfavorable foreign currency translation (approximately $87 million).
Licensed store revenue growth also contributed $57 million to the increase in total net revenues, primarily as result of increased product sales to and royalty revenues from our licensees, largely due to the opening of 1,073 net new Starbucks
®
licensed stores over the past 12 months and improved comparable store sales. These increases were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation (approximately $17 million) and a decrease in licensed store revenues resulting from the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan (approximately $6 million).
CPG, foodservice and other revenues increased
$76 million
for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, primarily due to increased sales of premium single-serve products (approximately $48 million), foodservice sales (approximately $15 million), and U.S. packaged coffee (approximately $15 million).

Cost of sales including occupancy costs as a percentage of total net revenues decreased 80 basis points for the

2016
, primarily due to leverage on cost of sales and occupancy costs (approximately 60 basis points).
Store operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues increased 60 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
. Store operating expenses as a percentage of company-operated store revenues increased 90 basis points for the
first
quarter, primarily driven by increased investments in our partners (employees) and digital platforms (approximately 100 basis points), largely in the Americas segment.
Other operating expenses were flat as a percentage of total net revenues for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
. Excluding the impact of company-operated store revenues, other operating expenses were flat for the first quarter, primarily driven by sales leverage (approximately 50 basis points).
General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total net revenues decreased 50 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, primarily driven by sales leverage (approximately 20 basis points) and the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan (approximately 20 basis points), largely due to lapping of higher acquisition-related transaction and integration costs in prior year.
The combination of these changes resulted in an overall increase in operating margin of 60 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
.

During the first quarter of fiscal

Revenues
Americas total net revenues for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
increased
$359 million
, or
11%
. These increases were primarily due to higher revenues from company-operated stores (contributing
$320 million
) and licensed stores (contributing
$41 million
).
The increase in company-operated store revenues was driven by a
9%
increase in comparable store sales (approximately $264 million), as well as incremental revenues from 332 net new Starbucks
®
company-operated store openings over the past 12 months (approximately $120 million). Partially offsetting these increases was unfavorable foreign currency translation (approximately $49 million), primarily driven by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar.
The increase in licensed store revenues was primarily due to higher product sales to and royalty revenues from our licensees, resulting from the opening of 264 net new licensed stores over the past 12 months and improved comparable store sales.
Operating Expenses
Cost of sales including occupancy costs as a percentage of total net revenues decreased 140 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, primarily driven by leverage on cost of sales and occupancy costs (approximately 70 basis points) and lower dairy costs (approximately 60 basis points).
Store operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues increased 70 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
. Store operating expenses as a percentage of company-operated store revenues increased 80 basis points, primarily driven by increased investments in our store partners (employees) and digital platforms (approximately 120 basis points), partially offset by sales leverage on salaries and benefits (approximately 50 basis points).
Other operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues were flat for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
. Excluding the impact of company-operated store revenues, other operating expenses decreased 30 basis points, primarily driven by sales leverage (approximately 20 basis points).
The combination of these changes resulted in an overall increase in operating margin of 80 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
.

Discussion of our China/Asia Pacific segment results below reflects the impact of fully consolidating Starbucks Japan due to the ownership change from an equity method joint venture to a company-operated market since the acquisition date of October 31, 2014. Under the joint venture model, we recognized royalties and product sales within revenues and related product cost of sales as well as our proportionate share of Starbucks Japan’s net earnings, which we recognized within income from equity investees. This resulted in a very high operating margin. Under the company-operated ownership model, Starbucks Japan’s operating results are reflected in most income statement lines of this segment and have an operating margin more in line with that of our other retail businesses.
Revenues
China/Asia Pacific total net revenues for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
increased
$158 million
, or
32%
, over the prior year period, primarily from an increase in company-operated store revenues (approximately
$158 million
), driven by incremental revenues from the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan to mostly company-operated stores (approximately $105 million). Incremental revenues from 339 net new company-operated store openings over the past 12 months (approximately $58 million) and a 5% increase in comparable store sales (approximately $18 million) also contributed and were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation (approximately $23 million).
Licensed store revenues decreased
$1 million
for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, primarily due to our ownership change in Starbucks Japan to mostly company-operated stores (approximately $6 million) and unfavorable foreign currency transaction (approximately $3 million). These decreases were largely offset by increased product sales to and royalty revenues from licensees (approximately $10 million), resulting from the opening of 546 net new licensed stores over the past 12 months.
Operating Expenses
Cost of sales including occupancy costs as a percentage of total net revenues decreased 200 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, primarily due to the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan (approximately 120 basis points), as well as a shift in our cost of sales mix resulting from growth of our company-operated stores, which have a higher margin (approximately 20 basis points).
Store operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues increased 310 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
. As a percentage of company-operated store revenues, store operating expenses increased 230 basis points, primarily from the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan (approximately 120 basis points) and higher compensation and benefits (approximately 70 basis points).
Other operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues decreased 70 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
.
Excluding the impact of company-operated store revenues, other operating expenses decreased 30 basis points, primarily due to
26
sales leverage (approximately 180 basis points), offset by the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan (approximately 210 basis points).
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased 70 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, primarily due to the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan (approximately 50 basis points).
Income from equity investees as a percentage of total net revenues declined 180 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, primarily driven by the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan (approximately 220 basis points). The remaining favorable change of 40 basis points was due to higher income from our joint venture operations, primarily in China and South Korea, partially offset by the impact of accelerated growth in segment revenues driven by the shift in the composition of our store portfolio to more company-operated stores and unfavorable foreign currency translation.
The overall decrease in operating margin of 240 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
was primarily driven by the impact of our ownership change in Starbucks Japan (approximately 330 basis points), partially offset by 90 basis points of margin expansion driven by the other items discussed above.

Revenues
EMEA total net revenues decreased
$20 million
, or
6%
, over the prior year period, primarily from a decline in company-operated store revenues (approximately
$39 million
). The decrease was driven by the shift to more licensed stores in the region (approximately $28 million), which includes the absence of revenues from the conversion of certain stores in the U.K. from company-operated to licensed and net store closures. Also contributing to the decrease in company-operated revenues was unfavorable foreign currency translation (approximately $14 million).
Licensed store revenues increased
$16 million
, or
25.9%
, primarily due to higher product sales to and royalty revenues from our licensees (approximately $30 million) resulting from the opening of 263 net new licensed stores over the past 12 months and improved comparable store sales, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency translation (approximately $13 million).
Operating Expenses
Cost of sales including occupancy costs as a percentage of total net revenues increased 150 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, primarily due to the shift to more licensed stores in the region (approximately 200 basis points), largely driven by higher cost of sales in our licensed store operations.
Store operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues decreased 210 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
. As a percentage of company-operated store revenues, store operating expenses increased 50 basis points, primarily driven by sales deleverage, largely on salaries and benefits, due to a decrease in retail sales as a result of the shift to more licensed stores
27
(approximately 300 basis points), partially offset by gains on sales of certain store assets in the region (approximately 270 basis points).
Other operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues increased 60 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
. Excluding the impact of company-operated store revenues, other operating expenses decreased 240 basis points, primarily due to sales leverage driven by the shift to more licensed stores in the region (approximately 240 basis points).
The combination of these changes resulted in an overall increase in operating margin of 40 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016

Revenues
Channel Development total net revenues for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
increased
$70 million
, or
16%
, primarily driven by higher sales of premium single-serve products (approximately $41 million) and U.S. packaged coffee (approximately $14 million). An increase in foodservice sales also contributed (approximately $14 million).
Operating Expenses
Cost of sales as a percentage of total net revenues decreased 60 basis points for the
first
quarter, primarily driven by leverage on cost of sales (approximately 70 basis points).
Other operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues increased 30 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, primarily driven by higher sales commissions and the costs of a biannual conference held during the quarter (approximately 30 basis points each), partially offset by sales leverage (approximately 60 basis points).
Income from equity investees increased
$12 million
, due to higher income from our North American Coffee Partnership joint venture, primarily due to increased sales of bottled Frappuccino
®
beverages and canned Doubleshot
®
beverages,
largely driven by higher sales volume and new product launches. This increase was partially offset by increased marketing costs to support continued growth of our brands, including Frappuccino and Doubleshot.
The combination of these changes resulted in an overall increase in operating margin of 210 basis points for the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Investment Overview
Starbucks cash and investments totaled
$2.7 billion
as of
December 27, 2015
and
$1.9 billion
as of
September 27, 2015
. We actively manage our cash and investments in order to internally fund operating needs, make scheduled interest and principal payments on our borrowings, make acquisitions, and return cash to shareholders through common stock cash dividend payments and share repurchases. Our investment portfolio primarily includes highly liquid available-for-sale securities, including government treasury securities (foreign and domestic), corporate debt securities, mortgage and asset-backed securities, state and local government obligations and agency obligations. As of
December 27, 2015
, approximately
$1.3 billion
of our cash and investments were held in foreign subsidiaries.
Borrowing Capacity
Our previous
$750 million
unsecured, revolving credit facility (the "2013 credit facility") was set to mature in January 2020. In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, we replaced the 2013 credit facility with a new
$1.5 billion
unsecured, revolving credit facility (the "2016 credit facility") with various banks, of which
$150 million
may be used for issuances of letters of credit.
The 2016 credit facility is available for working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes, including acquisitions and share repurchases, and is currently set to mature on
November 6, 2020
. Starbucks has the option, subject to negotiation and agreement with the related banks, to increase the maximum commitment amount by an additional
$750 million
. Borrowings under the credit facility will bear interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR, and, for U.S. dollar-denominated loans under certain circumstances, a Base Rate (as defined in the credit facility), in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the better of (i) the Company's long-term credit ratings assigned by Moody's and Standard & Poor's rating agencies and (ii) the Company's fixed charge coverage ratio, pursuant to a pricing grid set forth in the credit agreement. The current applicable margin is
0.565%
for Eurocurrency Rate Loans and
0.00%
for Base Rate Loans. The credit facility contains provisions requiring us to maintain compliance with certain covenants, including a minimum fixed charge
30
coverage ratio, which measures our ability to cover financing expenses. As of
December 27, 2015
, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants. No amounts were outstanding under our credit facility as of
December 27, 2015
.
Under our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of
$1 billion
, with individual maturities that may vary but not exceed
397 days
from the date of issue. Amounts outstanding under the commercial paper program are required to be backstopped by available commitments under our credit facility discussed above. As of
December 27, 2015
, availability under our commercial paper program was approximately
$1 billion
. The proceeds from borrowings under our commercial paper program may be used for working capital needs, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes, including share repurchases, business expansion, payment of cash dividends on our common stock or the financing of possible acquisitions. We had no borrowings under our commercial paper program during the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
.
The indentures under which all of our Senior Notes were issued, as detailed in
Note 7
, Debt, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this 10-Q, require us to maintain compliance with certain covenants, including limits on future liens and sale and leaseback transactions on certain material properties. As of
December 27, 2015
, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants.
Use of Cash
We expect to use our available cash and investments, including additional potential future borrowings under the credit facility and commercial paper program, to invest in our core businesses, including capital expenditures, new product innovations, related marketing support and partner and digital investments, return cash to shareholders through common stock cash dividend payments and share repurchases, as well as other new business opportunities related to our core businesses. Further, we may use our available cash resources to make proportionate capital contributions to our equity method and cost method investees. We may also seek strategic acquisitions to leverage existing capabilities and further build our business in support of our growth agenda. Acquisitions may include increasing our ownership interests in our equity method and cost method investees. Any decisions to increase such ownership interests will be driven by valuation and fit with our ownership strategy.
We believe that future cash flows generated from operations and existing cash and investments both domestically and internationally will be sufficient to finance capital requirements for our core businesses in those respective markets as well as shareholder distributions for the foreseeable future. Significant new joint ventures, acquisitions and/or other new business opportunities may require additional outside funding. We have borrowed funds domestically and continue to believe we have the ability to do so at reasonable interest rates; however, additional borrowings would result in increased interest expense in the future.
We consider the majority of undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries and equity investees as of
December 27, 2015
to be indefinitely reinvested and, accordingly, no U.S. income and foreign withholding taxes have been provided on such earnings. We have not, nor do we anticipate the need to, repatriate funds to the U.S. to satisfy domestic liquidity needs; however, in the event that we need to repatriate all or a portion of our foreign cash to the U.S. we would be subject to additional U.S. income taxes, which could be material. We do not believe it is practicable to calculate the potential tax impact of repatriation, as there is a significant amount of uncertainty around the calculation, including the availability and amount of foreign tax credits at the time of repatriation, tax rates in effect, and other indirect tax consequences associated with repatriation.
During the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of
$0.20
per share to be paid on
February 19, 2016
to shareholders of record as of the close of business on
February 4, 2016
. We repurchased
4.5 million
shares of common stock (
$267.1 million
) during the
first
quarter of fiscal
2016
under share repurchase authorizations. The number of remaining shares authorized for repurchase as of
December 27, 2015
totaled
48.3 million
.
Other than normal operating expenses, cash requirements for the remainder of fiscal
2016
are expected to consist primarily of capital expenditures for new company-operated stores; remodeling and refurbishment of, and equipment upgrades for, existing company-operated stores; systems and technology investments in the stores and in the support infrastructure; and additional investments in manufacturing capacity. Total capital expenditures for fiscal
2016
are expected to be approximately
$1.4 billion
. Additionally, as discussed in
Note 7
, Debt, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this 10-Q, our
$400 million
of
0.875%
Senior Notes (the "2016 notes") will mature in our first quarter of fiscal 2017.
Cash Flows
Cash
provided
by operating activities was
$1.6 billion
for the first quarter of fiscal
2016
, compared to
$1.4 billion
for the same period in fiscal 2015. The change was primarily due to the timing of our cash payments for income taxes, partially offset by changes in working capital accounts due to timing.
Cash
used
by investing activities for the first quarter of fiscal
2016
totaled
$360.1 million
, compared to
$522.5 million
for the same period in fiscal
2015
. The change was primarily due to lapping the prior year use of cash to acquire Sazaby's 39.5%
31
ownership interest in Starbucks Japan, partially offset by a decrease in sales of investments, primarily U.S. government treasury securities.
Cash
used
by financing activities for the first quarter of fiscal
2016
totaled
$528.7 million
, compared to
$668.3 million
for the same period in fiscal
2015
. The change was primarily due to lapping prior year cash restricted to fund the second tender offer step of the Starbucks Japan acquisition, partially offset by increased cash returned to shareholders through dividend payments and share repurchases compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015.
Contractual Obligations
In Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 10-K, we disclosed that we had $10.3 billion in total contractual obligations as of
September 27, 2015
. There have been no material changes to our total obligations during the period covered by this 10-Q outside of the normal course of our business.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There has been no material change in our off-balance sheet arrangements discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the 10-K.
Commodity Prices, Availability and General Risk Conditions
Commodity price risk represents our primary market risk, generated by our purchases of green coffee and dairy products, among other items. We purchase, roast and sell high-quality
arabica
coffee and related products and risk arises from the price volatility of green coffee. In addition to coffee, we also purchase significant amounts of dairy products to support the needs of our company-operated stores. The price and availability of these commodities directly impacts our results of operations and we expect commodity prices, particularly coffee, to impact future results of operations. For additional details, see Product Supply in Item 1 of the 10-K, as well as Risk Factors in Item 1A of the 10-K.
Seasonality and Quarterly Results
Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations, including fluctuations resulting from the holiday season in December. Our cash flows from operations are considerably higher in the first fiscal quarter than the remainder of the year. This is largely driven by cash received as Starbucks Cards are issued to and loaded by customers during the holiday season. Since revenues from the Starbucks Card are recognized upon redemption and not when cash is loaded onto them, the impact of seasonal fluctuations on the consolidated statements of earnings is much less pronounced. Quarterly results are affected by the timing of the opening of new stores and the closing of existing stores. For these reasons, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Note 1
, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this 10-Q, for a detailed description of recent accounting pronouncements.

Item 3.
|
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|
There has been no material change in the commodity price risk, foreign currency exchange risk, equity security price risk, or interest rate risk discussed in Item 7A of the 10-K.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During the first quarter of fiscal
2016
, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report (
December 27, 2015
).
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect internal control over financial reporting.
