NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1:
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates
Financial Statement Preparation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024, and for the quarters and three quarters ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023, 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 quarters and three quarters ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 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.”
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews financial information for operational decision-making purposes.
Certain prior period information on the consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
The financial information as of October 1, 2023 is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2023 (“fiscal 2023”) included in Item 8 in the fiscal 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“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 and three quarters ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved for the entire fiscal year ending September 29, 2024 (“fiscal 2024”).
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance expanding segment disclosure requirements. The amendments require enhanced disclosure for certain segment items and require disclosure on how management uses reported measures to assess segment performance. The amendments do not change how segments are determined, aggregated, or how thresholds are applied to determine reportable segments. We expect to adopt the guidance for the fiscal year ending September 28, 2025. We are currently evaluating the expanded disclosure requirements and do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance expanding disclosure requirements related to income taxes. The amendments require enhanced jurisdictional disclosures for the income tax rate reconciliation and related to cash income taxes paid. Additionally, specific disclosures related to unrecognized tax benefits and indefinite reinvestment assertions were removed. The amendments are effective for our fiscal year ending September 27, 2026. While we are still evaluating the specific impacts and timing of adoption, we anticipate this guidance will have a significant impact on our annual income tax disclosures.
In March 2024, the SEC issued its final climate disclosure rules, which require the disclosure of climate-related information in annual reports and registration statements. The rules require disclosure in the audited financial statements of certain effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions above certain financial thresholds, as well as amounts related to carbon offsets and renewable energy credits or certificates, if material. Disclosure requirements will begin phasing in for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2025. On April 4, 2024, the SEC determined to voluntarily stay the final rules pending certain legal challenges. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new rules and continue to monitor the status of the related legal challenges.

On January 13, 2023, we sold the assets, primarily consisting of intellectual properties associated with the Seattle’s Best Coffee brand, to Nestlé for $
110.0
million. The transaction resulted in a pre-tax gain of $
91.3
million, which was included in gain from sale of assets on our consolidated statements of earnings for the three quarters ended July 2, 2023. Results from Seattle’s Best Coffee operations prior to the sale are reported in our Channel Development operating segment.

Note 3:
Derivative Financial Instruments
Interest Rates
From time to time, we enter into designated cash flow hedges to manage the variability in cash flows due to changes in benchmark interest rates. We enter into interest rate swap agreements, including forward-starting interest rate swaps and treasury locks, settled in cash based upon the difference between an agreed-upon benchmark rate and the prevailing benchmark rate at settlement. These agreements are generally settled around the time of the pricing of the related debt. Each derivative agreement’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.
To hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt, we enter into interest rate swap agreements, which are designated as fair value hedges. The changes in fair values of these derivative instruments and the offsetting changes in fair values of the underlying hedged debt due to changes in the relevant benchmark interest rates are recorded in interest expense. Refer to
Note 8
, Debt, for additional information on our long-term 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 royalty payments, inventory purchases, and intercompany borrowing and lending activities. The resulting gains and losses from these derivatives are recorded in AOCI and subsequently reclassified to revenue, product and distribution costs, or interest income and other, net, respectively, when the hedged exposures affect net earnings.
From time to time, we may enter into financial instruments, including, but not limited to, forward and swap contracts or foreign currency-denominated debt, to hedge the currency exposure of our net investments in certain international operations. The resulting gains and losses from these derivatives are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified to net earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated. Gains and losses from these derivatives representing hedged components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are amortized over the life of the hedging instrument using a systematic and rational method and recognized in interest expense.
Foreign currency forward and swap contracts not designated as hedging instruments are used to mitigate the foreign exchange risk of certain other balance sheet items. Gains and losses from these derivatives are largely offset by the financial impact of translating foreign currency-denominated payables and receivables, and these gains and losses are recorded in interest income and other, net.
Commodities
Depending on market conditions, we may enter into coffee forward contracts, futures contracts, and collars to hedge anticipated cash flows under our price-to-be-fixed green coffee contracts, which are described further in
Note 5,
Inventories, or our longer-dated forecasted coffee demand where underlying fixed price and price-to-be-fixed contracts are not yet available. The resulting gains and losses are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified to product and distribution costs when the hedged exposure affects net earnings.
Depending on market conditions, we may also enter into dairy forward contracts and futures contracts to hedge a portion of anticipated cash flows under our dairy purchase contracts and our forecasted dairy demand. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified to product and distribution costs when the hedged exposure affects net earnings.
Cash flow hedges related to anticipated transactions are designated and documented at the inception of each hedge. Cash flows from hedging transactions are classified in the same categories as the cash flows from the respective hedged items. For de-designated cash flow hedges in which the underlying transactions are no longer probable of occurring or where price variability in the underlying cash flow ceases to exist, the related accumulated derivative gains or losses are recognized in interest income and other, net on our consolidated statements of earnings. These derivatives may be accounted for prospectively as non-designated derivatives until maturity, re-designated to new hedging relationships, or terminated early. We continue to believe transactions related to our other designated cash flow hedges are probable to occur.
To mitigate the price uncertainty of a portion of our future purchases, including diesel fuel and other commodities, we enter into swap contracts, futures, and collars that are not designated as hedging instruments. The resulting gains and losses are recorded in interest income and other, net to help offset price fluctuations on our beverage, food, packaging, and transportation costs, which are included in product and distribution costs on our consolidated statements of earnings.

There were no material 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.
Gross unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale debt securities, structured deposits, and marketable equity securities were not material as of June 30, 2024 and October 1, 2023.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on the consolidated financial statements on a nonrecurring basis include items such as property, plant and equipment, ROU assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, equity and other investments, and other assets. These assets are measured at fair value if determined to be impaired.
The estimated fair value of our long-term debt based on the quoted market price (Level 2) is included at

“Other merchandise held for sale” includes, among other items, food, serveware, and tea. Inventory levels vary due to seasonality, commodity market supply, and price fluctuations.
As of June 30, 2024, we had committed to purchasing green coffee totaling $
168.5
million under fixed-price contracts and an estimated $
863.2
million under price-to-be-fixed contracts. A portion of our price-to-be-fixed contracts are effectively fixed through the use of futures. See
Note 3
, Derivative Financial Instruments, for further discussion. 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 established relationships with our suppliers and continuous monitoring, the risk of non-delivery on these purchase commitments is remote.

billion.
Borrowings under the 2021 credit facility, which was most recently amended in April 2023, will bear interest at a variable rate based on Term SOFR, and, for U.S. dollar-denominated loans under certain circumstances, a Base Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility), in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s long-term credit ratings assigned by the Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s rating agencies. The “Base Rate” is the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility) plus
0.500
%, (ii) Bank of America’s prime rate, and (iii) Term SOFR plus
1.000
%. Term SOFR means the forward-looking SOFR term rate administrated by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange plus a SOFR Adjustment of
0.100
%.
The 2021 credit facility contains provisions requiring us to maintain compliance with certain covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, which measures our ability to cover financing expenses. As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants.
No
amounts were outstanding under our 2021 credit facility as of June 30, 2024 or October 1, 2023.

Under our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $
3.0
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 2021 credit facility. The proceeds from borrowings under our commercial paper program may be used for working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, business expansion, payment of cash dividends on our common stock, and share repurchases.
No
amounts were outstanding under our commercial paper program as of June 30, 2024 and October 1, 2023.

Introduction and Overview
Starbucks is the premier roaster, marketer, and retailer of specialty coffee in the world, operating in 86 markets. As of June 30, 2024, Starbucks had more than 39,400 company-operated and licensed stores, an increase of 6% from the prior year. Additionally, we sell a variety of consumer-packaged goods, primarily through the Global Coffee Alliance established with Nestlé and other partnerships and joint ventures.
We have three reportable operating segments: 1) North America, which is inclusive of the U.S. and Canada; 2) International, which is inclusive of China, Japan, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East, Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean; and 3) Channel Development. Unallocated corporate expenses are reported within Corporate and Other.
We believe our financial results and long-term growth model will continue to be driven by new store openings, comparable store sales growth, and operating margin management, underpinned by disciplined capital allocation. We believe these key operating metrics are useful to investors because management uses these metrics to assess the growth of our business and the effectiveness of our marketing and operational strategies. Throughout this MD&A, we commonly discuss the following key operating metrics:
•
New store openings and store count
•
Comparable store sales growth
•
Operating margin
Comparable store sales growth represents the percentage change in sales in one period from the same prior year period for company-operated stores open for 13 months or longer and excludes the impact of foreign currency translation. We analyze comparable store sales growth on a constant currency basis as this helps identify underlying business trends, without distortion from the effects of currency movements. Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed.
Our fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to September 30. Fiscal 2024 and 2023 include 52 weeks. All references to store counts, including data for new store openings, are reported net of store closures, unless otherwise noted.
Starbucks results for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 reflect progress against our action plans to drive traffic to our stores and realized in-store and out-of-store efficiencies, which helped partially offset the impact of continued broader headwinds in a challenging global operating environment, including softening consumer sentiment, a pervasive inflationary environment, and disruptions due to multiple international conflicts. During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, consolidated net revenues decreased 1% to $9.1 billion compared to $9.2 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, primarily driven by a decline in global comparable store sales and unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, partially offset by incremental revenues from net new company-operated store openings over the past 12 months. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, our global comparable store sales declined 3%, primarily driven by a 2% decline in the U.S. market and a 7% decline internationally. Consolidated operating margin decreased 60 basis points from the prior year to 16.7%, primarily driven by increased promotional activity, increased investments in store partner wages and benefits, and deleverage, partially offset by strategic pricing and in-store operational efficiencies. Further, our efficiency focus extended beyond our stores, and we realized meaningful out-of-store efficiencies during the quarter, largely within our supply chain.
Despite continued complex macroeconomic challenges across multiple markets and regions, we are encouraged by our progress. In the balance of the fiscal year, we anticipate continued progress on our action plans to increase demand across dayparts by introducing innovative and exciting beverage and food offerings to reach customers more broadly, while expanding our efficiency efforts and disciplined operational execution.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared with the quarter ended July 2, 2023
Total net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased $54 million, primarily due to lower revenues from company-operated stores ($41 million). The decrease in revenues from company-operated stores was driven by a 3% decrease in
30
comparable store sales ($227 million), attributable to a 5% decrease in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 2% increase in average ticket. Also contributing to the decrease in company-operated stores revenue were unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts ($101 million). Partially offsetting these decreases were incremental revenues from 1,434 net new company-operated stores, or an 8% increase, over the past 12 months ($290 million).
Licensed stores revenue decreased $7 million, primarily driven by lower product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees in our International segment ($23 million) and unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts ($10 million), partially offset by higher product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees in North America ($19 million).
Other revenues decreased $7 million, primarily due to a decline in revenue in the Global Coffee Alliance ($21 million) following the sale of our Seattle’s Best Coffee brand to Nestlé in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 as well as product SKU optimization, partially offset by growth in our global ready-to-drink business ($9 million).
For the three quarters ended June 30, 2024 compared with the three quarters ended July 2, 2023
Total net revenues for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024 increased $500 million, primarily due to higher revenues from company-operated stores ($541 million), which were driven by incremental revenues from 1,434 net new
company-operated stores, or an 8% increase, over the past 12 months ($871 million). Partially offsetting this increase were unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts ($222 million) and a 1% decrease in comparable store sales ($110 million), attributable to a 3% decrease in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 2% increase in average ticket.
Licensed stores revenue increased $51 million, driven by higher product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees ($48 million), primarily driven by revenues from 821 net new licensed store openings, or a 5% increase, over the past 12 months.
Other revenues decreased $92 million, primarily due to a decline in revenue in the Global Coffee Alliance ($99 million) following the sale of our Seattle’s Best Coffee brand to Nestlé in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 as well as product SKU optimization.

31
Store operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues increased 170 basis points for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Store operating expenses as a percentage of company-operated stores revenue increased 200 basis points, primarily due to increased investments in store partner wages and benefits (approximately 200 basis points) and increased promotional activity (approximately 100 basis points), partially offset by in-store operational efficiencies (approximately 140 basis points).
Depreciation and amortization expenses as a percentage of total net revenues increased 50 basis points, primarily due to deleverage.
General and administrative expenses decreased $28 million, primarily due to lower performance-based compensation ($46 million) and the lapping of a donation to the Starbucks Foundation made in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 ($15 million). These decreases were partially offset by increased investments in partner wages and benefits ($23 million) and incremental investments in technology in support of Reinvention ($23 million).
The combination of these changes resulted in an overall decrease in operating margin of 60 basis points for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
For the three quarters ended June 30, 2024 compared with the three quarters ended July 2, 2023
Product and distribution costs as a percentage of total net revenues decreased 100 basis points for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024, primarily due to the impact of increased sales from pricing (approximately 60 basis points) and a reduction in supply chain costs (approximately 60 basis points).
Store operating expenses as a percentage of total net revenues increased 80 basis points for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024. Store operating expenses as a percentage of company-operated stores revenue increased 60 basis points, primarily due to increased investments in store partner wages and benefits (approximately 170 basis points) and increased promotional activity (approximately 80 basis points), partially offset by in-store operational efficiencies (approximately 190 basis points).
Other operating expenses increased $33 million, primarily due to support costs for our growing licensed markets.
Depreciation and amortization expenses as a percentage of total net revenues increased 30 basis points, primarily due to deleverage.
General and administrative expenses increased $73 million, primarily due to incremental investments in technology in support of Reinvention ($75 million), increased investments in partner wages and benefits ($71 million), and certain proxy solicitation and advisory services costs ($28 million). These increases were partially offset by lower performance-based compensation ($54 million) and the lapping of donations to the Starbucks Foundation made in fiscal 2023 ($30 million).
Gain from sale of assets includes the sale of our Seattle’s Best Coffee brand to Nestlé in the second quarter of fiscal 2023.
Income from equity investees increased $19 million, primarily due to higher income from our North American Coffee Partnership joint venture.
The combination of these changes resulted in an overall decrease in operating margin of 60 basis points for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024.

The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was 24.8% compared to 22.0% for the same period in fiscal 2023. The increase was primarily due to lapping the release of valuation allowances recorded against certain deferred tax assets of an international jurisdiction in the prior year (approximately 300 basis points).
For the three quarters ended June 30, 2024 compared with the three quarters ended July 2, 2023
Interest income and other, net increased $45 million and interest expense increased $15 million, both primarily due to higher interest rates in the current year.
The effective tax rate for the first three quarters ended June 30, 2024 was 24.4% compared to 23.7% for the same period in fiscal 2023. The increase was due to lapping the release of valuation allowances recorded against certain deferred tax assets of an international jurisdiction in the prior year (approximately 120 basis points) and the accrual of foreign withholding taxes related to the current year earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries (approximately 60 basis points), partially offset by electing an alternative tax approach in a certain foreign jurisdiction that resulted in a tax benefit in the second quarter of fiscal 2024 (approximately 80 basis points).

For the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared with the quarter ended July 2, 2023
Revenues
North America total net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 increased $79 million, or 1%, primarily driven by net new company-operated store growth of 5%, or 488 stores, over the past 12 months ($202 million), as well as higher product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees ($19 million). This growth was partially offset by a 2% decrease in comparable store sales ($139 million) driven by a 6% decrease in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 3% increase in average ticket, primarily due to annualization of pricing and increased beverage attach.
Operating Margin
North America operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased 2% to $1.4 billion, compared to $1.5 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Operating margin decreased 70 basis points to 21.0%, primarily due to increased investments in store partner wages and benefits (approximately 170 basis points), increased promotional activity (approximately 160 basis points), and deleverage (approximately 130 basis points), partially offset by strategic pricing (approximately 260 basis points) and in-store operational efficiencies (approximately 120 basis points).
For the three quarters ended June 30, 2024 compared with the three quarters ended July 2, 2023

Revenues
North America total net revenues for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024 increased $648 million, or 3%, primarily driven by net new company-operated store growth of 5%, or 488 stores, over the past 12 months ($584 million) and higher product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees ($82 million). This growth was partially offset by a decline in comparable store sales ($29 million) driven by a 4% decrease in comparable transactions, partially offset by a 4% increase in average ticket, primarily due to annualization of pricing.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared with the quarter ended July 2, 2023
Revenues
International total net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased $131 million, or 7%, primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts ($105 million), as well as a 7% decline in comparable store sales ($88 million), driven by a 4% decline in average ticket and a 3% decline in comparable transactions. Also contributing to the decline in international total net revenues were lower product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees ($23 million), largely driven by disruptions due to multiple international conflicts, partially offset by the performance of 703 net new licensed store openings
35
over the past 12 months. In addition, these decreases were partially offset by net new company-operated store growth of 11%, or 946 stores, over the past 12 months ($88 million).
Operating Margin
International operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased 23% to $288 million, compared to $375 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Operating margin decreased 340 basis points to 15.6%, primarily due to increased promotional activity (approximately 210 basis points), increased investments in store partner wages and benefits (approximately 160 basis points), and strategic investments (approximately 70 basis points), partially offset by in-store operational efficiencies (approximately 130 basis points).
For the three quarters ended June 30, 2024 compared with the three quarters ended July 2, 2023
Revenues
International total net revenues for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024 decreased $62 million, or 1%, primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency translation impacts ($235 million), as well as a 2% decline in comparable store sales ($81 million) driven by a 3% decline in average ticket, partially offset by a 1% increase in comparable transactions. Also contributing to the decline in international total net revenues were lower product and equipment sales to, and royalty revenues from, our licensees ($34 million), largely driven by disruptions due to multiple international conflicts, partially offset by the performance of 703 net new licensed store openings over the past 12 months. In addition, these decreases were partially offset by net new company-operated store growth of 11%, or 946 stores, over the past 12 months ($287 million).
Operating Margin
International operating income for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024 decreased 18% to $763 million, compared to $930 million for the same period in fiscal 2023. Operating margin decreased 290 basis points to 14.0%, primarily due to increased promotional activity (approximately 200 basis points), increased investments in store partner wages and benefits (approximately 130 basis points), and sales mix shift (approximately 70 basis points). These decreases were partially offset by in-store operational efficiencies (approximately 100 basis points).

Revenues
Channel Development total net revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 decreased $11 million, or 2%, primarily due to a decline in revenue in the Global Coffee Alliance ($21 million) from product SKU optimization as well as the sale of our Seattle’s Best Coffee brand to Nestlé in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, partially offset by higher revenue in our global ready-to-drink business ($9 million).
Operating Margin
Channel Development operating income for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 increased 13% to $235 million, compared to $208 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. Operating margin increased 740 basis points to 53.7%, primarily driven by mix shift (approximately 350 basis points), lower product costs related to the Global Coffee Alliance (approximately 270 basis points), and strength in our North American Coffee Partnership joint venture income (approximately 90 basis points).
For the three quarters ended June 30, 2024 compared with the three quarters ended July 2, 2023
Revenues
Channel Development total net revenues for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024 decreased $103 million, or 7%, primarily due to a decline in revenue in the Global Coffee Alliance ($99 million) following the sale of our Seattle’s Best Coffee brand to Nestlé in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 as well as product SKU optimization, and lower revenue in our global ready-to-drink business ($12 million).
Operating Margin
Channel Development operating income for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024 decreased 5% to $661 million, compared to $696 million for the same period in fiscal 2023. Operating margin increased 120 basis points to 50.7%, primarily due to mix shift (approximately 410 basis points), strength in our North American Coffee Partnership joint venture income (approximately 240 basis points), and lapping impairment charges against certain manufacturing assets in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 (approximately 120 basis points), partially offset by lapping the gain from the sale of our Seattle’s Best Coffee brand in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 (approximately 650 basis points).

Corporate and Other primarily consists of our unallocated corporate expenses. Unallocated corporate expenses include corporate administrative functions that support the operating segments but are not specifically attributable to or managed by any segment and are not included in the reported financial results of the operating segments.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared with the quarter ended July 2, 2023
Corporate and Other operating loss decreased 5% to $438 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to $463 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023. This decrease was primarily due to lower performance-based compensation ($35 million) and the lapping of a donation to the Starbucks Foundation made in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 ($15 million). These decreases were partially offset by incremental investments in technology in support of Reinvention ($23 million) and increased investments in partner wages and benefits ($15 million).
For the three quarters ended June 30, 2024 compared with the three quarters ended July 2, 2023
Corporate and Other operating loss increased to $1.4 billion for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024, or 5%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2023. This increase was primarily driven by incremental investments in technology in support of
37
Reinvention ($75 million), increased investments in partner wages and benefits ($43 million), and certain proxy solicitation and advisory services costs ($28 million). These increases were partially offset by lower performance-based compensation ($46 million) and the lapping of donations to the Starbucks Foundation made in fiscal 2023 ($30 million).

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and Investment Overview
Our cash and investments were $3.7 billion
as of June 30, 2024 and $4.2 billion as of October 1, 2023. We actively manage our cash and investments in order to internally fund operating needs, make scheduled interest and principal payments on our borrowings, fund 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 corporate debt securities, government treasury securities (domestic and foreign), and commercial paper, as well as principal-protected structured deposits. As of June 30, 2024, approximately $2.0 billion of cash and short-term investments were held in foreign subsidiaries.
Borrowing Capacity
Revolving Credit Facility
Our $3.0 billion unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the “2021 credit facility”), of which $150.0 million may be used for issuances of letters of credit, is currently set to mature on September 16, 2026. The 2021 credit facility is available for working capital, capital expenditures, and other corporate purposes, including acquisitions and share repurchases. We have the option, subject to negotiation and agreement with the related banks, to increase the maximum commitment amount by an additional $1.0 billion.
Borrowings under the 2021 credit facility, which was most recently amended in April 2023, will bear interest at a variable rate based on Term SOFR, and, for U.S. dollar-denominated loans under certain circumstances, a Base Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility), in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s long-term credit ratings assigned by the Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s rating agencies. The “Base Rate” is the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility) plus 0.500%, (ii) Bank of America’s prime rate, and (iii) Term SOFR plus 1.000%. Term SOFR means the forward-looking SOFR term rate administrated by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange plus a SOFR Adjustment of 0.100%.
The 2021 credit facility contains provisions requiring us to maintain compliance with certain covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, which measures our ability to cover financing expenses. As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants. No amounts were outstanding under our 2021 credit facility as of June 30, 2024 or October 1, 2023.
Commercial Paper
Under our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $3.0 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 2021 credit facility. The proceeds from borrowings under our commercial paper program may be used for working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, business expansion, payment of cash dividends on our common stock, and share repurchases. No amounts were outstanding under our commercial paper program as
39
of June 30, 2024 and October 1, 2023. Our total available contractual borrowing capacity for general corporate purposes was $3.0 billion as of the end of our third quarter of fiscal 2024.
Credit Facilities in Japan
Additionally, we hold the following Japanese yen-denominated credit facilities that are available for working capital needs and capital expenditures within our Japanese market.
•
A ¥5.0 billion, or $31.1 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on December 30, 2024. Borrowings under this credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on TIBOR plus an applicable margin of 0.400%.
•
A ¥10.0 billion, or $62.2 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on March 27, 2025. Borrowings under this credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on TIBOR plus an applicable margin of 0.300%.
As of June 30, 2024, we had ¥2.0 billion, or $12.4 million, of borrowings outstanding under these credit facilities. As of October 1, 2023, we had ¥5.0 billion, or $33.5 million, of borrowings outstanding under these credit facilities.
See
Note 8,
Debt, to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this 10-Q for details of the components of our long-term debt.
Our ability to incur new liens and conduct sale and leaseback transactions on certain material properties is subject to compliance with terms of the indentures under which the long-term notes were issued. As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants.
Use of Cash
We expect to use our available cash and investments, including, but not limited to, additional potential future borrowings under the credit facilities, commercial paper program, and the issuance of debt to support and invest in our core businesses, including investing in new ways to serve our customers and supporting our store partners, repaying maturing debts, returning cash to shareholders through common stock cash dividend payments and discretionary share repurchases, and investing in new business opportunities related to our core and developing businesses. Furthermore, we may use our available cash resources to make proportionate capital contributions to our investees. We may also seek strategic acquisitions to leverage existing capabilities and further build our business. Acquisitions may include increasing our ownership interests in our investees. Any decisions to increase such ownership interests will be driven by valuation and fit with our ownership strategy.
We believe that net future cash flows generated from operations and existing cash and investments both domestically and internationally, combined with our ability to leverage our balance sheet through the issuance of debt, will be sufficient to finance capital requirements for our core businesses as well as shareholder distributions for at least the next 12 months. We are currently not aware of any trends or demands, commitments, events, or uncertainties that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in, our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way that will impact our capital needs during or beyond the next 12 months. We have borrowed funds 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. In this regard, we may incur additional debt, within targeted levels, as part of our plans to fund our capital programs, including cash returns to shareholders through future dividends and discretionary share repurchases, refinancing debt maturities, as well as investing in new business opportunities. If necessary, we may pursue additional sources of financing, including both short-term and long-term borrowings and debt issuances.
We regularly review our cash positions and our determination of partial indefinite reinvestment of foreign earnings. In the event we determine that all or another portion of such foreign earnings are no longer indefinitely reinvested, we may be subject to additional foreign withholding taxes, which could be material. Any foreign earnings that are not indefinitely reinvested may be repatriated at management’s discretion. In anticipation of repatriation of current year earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries, we accrued approximately $16 million for foreign withholding taxes during the first three quarters of fiscal year 2024.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of $0.57 per share to be paid on August 30, 2024 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 16, 2024.
During the three quarters ended June 30, 2024, we repurchased 12.8 million shares of common stock for $1,250.1 million on the open market. As of June 30, 2024, 29.8 million shares remained available for repurchase under current authorizations.
Other than normal operating expenses, cash requirements for the remainder of fiscal 2024 are expected to consist primarily of capital expenditures for investments in our new and existing stores, our supply chain, and corporate facilities. Total capital expenditures for fiscal 2024 are expected to be approximately $3.0 billion.
40
In the MD&A included in the 10-K, we disclosed that we had $33.9 billion of current and long-term material cash requirements as of October 1, 2023. There have been no material changes to our material cash requirements during the period covered by this 10-Q outside of the normal course of our business.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities was $4.6 billion for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024, compared to $4.1 billion for the same period in fiscal 2023. The change was primarily due to an increase in net cash provided by changes in operating assets and liabilities, an increase in depreciation and amortization, lapping the gain on sale of assets from the prior year sale of Seattle’s Best Coffee brand to Nestlé, and an increase in non-cash lease costs.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $1.8 billion for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024, compared to $1.4 billion for the same period in fiscal 2023. The change was primarily due to an increase in capital expenditures, purchases of investments, and lapping the proceeds from sale of assets from the prior year sale of Seattle’s Best Coffee brand to Nestlé, partially offset by an increase in maturities and calls of investments.
Net cash used in financing activities for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024 totaled $3.1 billion, compared to $2.1 billion for the same period in fiscal 2023. The change was primarily due to an increase in repayments of debt and an increase in share repurchase activities, partially offset by net proceeds from issuances of debt.
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 impact our results of operations, and we expect commodity prices, particularly coffee, to impact future results of operations. For additional details, see Product Supply in Part 1, Item 1 of the 10-K, as well as Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A of the 10-K.
Seasonality and Quarterly Results
Our business is subject to moderate seasonal fluctuations, of which our fiscal second quarter typically experiences lower revenues and operating income. Additionally, as our stored value cards (“Starbucks Cards”) are issued to, and loaded by, customers during the holiday season, we tend to have higher cash flows from operations during the first quarter of the fiscal year. However, since revenues from Starbucks Cards are recognized upon redemption and not when cash is loaded onto the Starbucks Cards, the impact of seasonal fluctuations on the consolidated statements of earnings is much less pronounced. As a result of moderate seasonal fluctuations, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and the Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and operating results require the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported.

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 third quarter of fiscal 2024, 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 our 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 (June 30, 2024).
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, our internal control over financial reporting.
