Earnings Highlights and Summary

For the quarter ended September 30, 2017, Restaurant Brands reported total revenues of $1.21 billion, up 12.08% versus $1.08 billion in Q3 2016, primarily as a result of the inclusion of its Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen (PLK) segment, as well as system-wide sales growths at both Tim Hortons (TH) and Burger King (BK). Restaurant Brands’ revenue numbers topped analysts’ estimates of $1.19 billion.

During Q3 2017, Restaurant Brands’ comparable sales, on a constant currency basis, grew 0.3% at TH, and 3.6% at BK, while it declined 1.8% at PLK. The Company’s system-wide sales growth, on a constant currency basis, was 3.0% at TH, 11.2% at BK, and 4.5% at PLK.

For Q3 2017, Restaurant Brands’ adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) were $565.1 million, up 7.6% on an organic basis versus the prior year’s same quarter combined results (including PLK), driven by increased revenues.

For the reported quarter, Restaurant Brands’ net income attributable to common shareholders was $91.4 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to $86.3 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in Q3 2016, driven by the inclusion of the PLK segment and growth in TH and BK segments’ income, offset primarily by an increase in loss on early extinguishment of debt, due to the early partial redemption of its 6% second lien notes.

Restaurant Brands’ adjusted earnings came in at $0.58 per diluted share for the reported quarter versus $0.43 in the prior year’s same period. The Company’s earnings beat Wall Street’s estimates of $0.48 per share.

The segment’s adjusted EBITDA grew 2.5% to $294.4 million for the reported quarter compared to $287.1 million in the prior year’s corresponding period, primarily as a result of an increase in total revenues, including a favorable impact of FX movements.

For Q3 2017, Restaurant Brands’ BK division’s system-wide sales growth was attributed to a net restaurant growth of 6.6% and comparable sales of 3.6%, which was primarily driven by US’ comparable sales of 4.0%.
