Sweetgreen, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Sweetgreen, Inc. (NYSE: SG) (the “Company”), the mission-driven, next generation restaurant and lifestyle brand that serves healthy food at scale, today announced financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended June 26, 2022.

“Thanks to our team’s execution, second quarter revenue grew 45% year over year and restaurant level margins increased to 18.5%,” said Co-Founder and CEO Jonathan Neman. “The team remains laser focused on operational discipline and our path to profitability. We will continue to invest in our key strategic initiatives to drive long term growth and are committed to being a positive force on the food system, while creating a sustainable and durable brand and business loved by customers.”

“We are pleased with our Q2 performance. From a profitability standpoint, we delivered above our expectations. Restaurant-level margin and Adjusted EBITDA on both a year over year basis and since Q1 ’22 saw meaningful improvements,” added CFO, Mitch Reback. “However, we began to see softness in revenue around Memorial Day and are therefore lowering our 2022 guidance. We will continue to manage corporate overhead and efficiently run our restaurants as we work towards profitability.”

Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

For the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2021:

  • Total revenue was $124.9 million versus $86.2 million in the prior year period, an increase of 45%.
  • Same-Store Sales Change of 16% versus Same-Store Sales Change of 86% in the prior year period.
  • AUV of $2.9 million versus AUV of $2.4 million in the prior year period.
  • Total Digital Revenue Percentage of 62% and Owned Digital Revenue Percentage of 40%, versus Total Digital Revenue Percentage of 68% and Owned Digital Revenue Percentage of 47% in the prior year period.
  • Loss from operations was $(42.2) million and loss from operations margin was (34)% versus loss from operations of $(24.2) million and loss from operations margin of (28)% in the prior year period.
  • Restaurant-Level Profit(1) was $23.0 million and Restaurant-Level Profit Margin was 18%, versus Restaurant-Level Profit of $12.8 million and Restaurant-Level Profit Margin of 15% in the prior year period.
  • Net loss was $(40.0) million versus net loss of $(26.9) million in the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $(7.4) million versus Adjusted EBITDA of $(13.8) million in the prior year period and Adjusted EBITDA Margin was (6)% versus (16)% in the prior year period.
  • 8 Net New Restaurant Openings versus 9 Net New Restaurant Opening in the prior year period.

(1) Restaurant-Level Profit, Restaurant-Level Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP measures. Reconciliations of Restaurant-Level Profit, Restaurant-Level Profit Margin, and Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, are set forth in the schedules accompanying this release. See “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures.”

Results for the second quarter ended June 26, 2022:

Total revenue in the second quarter of 2022 was $124.9 million, an increase of 45% versus the prior year period, primarily due to Same-Store Sales Change of 16% and additional revenue associated with 46 Net New Restaurant Openings during or subsequent to the second quarter of 2021 through the end of the second fiscal quarter of 2022. The Same-Store Sales Change of 16% consisted of a 10% increase from transactions and a 6% benefit from menu price increases that were implemented subsequent to the prior year period.

Our loss from operations margin was (34)% for the second quarter of 2022 versus (28)% in the prior year period. Restaurant-Level Profit Margin was 18%, an increase of roughly 300 basis points versus the prior year period, primarily due to greater sales leverage associated with our recovery from the impact of COVID-19 pandemic compared to the prior year period, a 6% benefit from menu pricing increases that were implemented subsequent to the prior year period, and the termination of our loyalty program. These increases were partially offset by increases in the prevailing wage rates across the country, continued inflationary pressures and higher freight related surcharges.

General and administrative expense was $51.3 million, or 41% of revenue for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to $26.1 million, or 30% of revenue in the prior year period. The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due to a $21.3 million increase in stock-based compensation expense, primarily related to restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units issued prior to our initial public offering. General and administrative expense was also impacted by $3.5 million related to an increase in research and development costs associated with our investment in Spyce, of which $0.2 million is non-recurring acquisition-related costs, and approximately $1.7 million of increased costs related to our transition to operating as a public company. General and administrative expenses were also impacted by an increase in office systems, as we continue to focus on growth and scalability, an increase in rent, and an increase in marketing and advertising. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in management salaries and benefits, including accrued bonus, a decrease in COVID-19 related costs, and a decrease in other general and administrative costs.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2022 was $(40.0) million, as compared to $(26.9) million in the prior year period. The increase in net loss was primarily due to the $21.3 million increase in stock-based compensation expense previously discussed, partially offset by the increase in overall revenue previously discussed. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes stock-based compensation and certain other adjustments, was $(7.4) million for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to $(13.8) million in the prior year period. This improvement was primarily due to increased Restaurant-Level Profit, Net New Restaurant Openings, sales leverage, and the impact of menu pricing increases described above. This was partially offset by an increase in general and administrative costs primarily driven by our transition to operating as a public company and investment in Spyce related research and development.

Recent Events

On August 8, 2022, we took a number of steps to manage operating expenses, with a focus of achieving profitability on an Adjusted EBITDA basis (the “Plan”), which included workforce reductions affecting approximately 5% of employees at the sweetgreen Support Center, and a reduction of our real estate footprint by vacating the premises for the existing sweetgreen Support Center and moving to a smaller office space adjacent to our existing location (the “Office Move”). We expect to incur total pre-tax restructuring and related charges of approximately $8.9 million to $10.7 million, including approximately $0.5 million to $0.8 million of severance and related benefits costs and approximately $8.4 million to $9.9 million of non-cash expenses due to the Office Move. We expect to recognize these expenses primarily in the third quarter of fiscal year 2022. The charges that we expect to incur are subject to a number of assumptions, primarily related to estimated time to sublease the vacated portion of our Support Center and related sublease rent received, and actual expenses may differ materially from the estimates disclosed above.

2022 Outlook

For fiscal year 2022, we now anticipate the following:

  • At least 35 Net New Restaurant Openings
  • Revenue ranging from $480 million to $500 million
  • Same-Store Sales Change of between 13% and 19%
  • Restaurant-Level Profit Margin between 15% and 17%
  • Adjusted EBITDA between $(45) million to $(35) million

We have not reconciled our expectations as to Restaurant-Level Profit Margin and Adjusted EBITDA to their most directly comparable GAAP measures as a result of uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items. Accordingly, reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to our results computed in accordance with GAAP.

Conference Call

Sweetgreen will host a conference all to discuss its financial results today, August 9, 2022, at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time. A live webcast of the call can be accessed from Sweetgreen’s Investor Relations website at investor.sweetgreen.com. An archived version of the webcast will be available from the same website after the call.

Glossary

  • Average Unit Volume (“AUV”) - AUV is defined as the average trailing revenue for the prior four fiscal quarters for all restaurants in the Comparable Restaurant Base.
  • Comparable Restaurant Base - Comparable Restaurant Base for any measurement period is defined as all restaurants that have operated for at least twelve full months as of the end of such measurement period, other than any restaurants that had a material, temporary closure during the relevant measurement period. Historically, a restaurant has been considered to have had a material, temporary closure if it had no operations for a consecutive period of at least 30 days. As a result of material, temporary closures in fiscal year 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, 19 restaurants were excluded from our Comparable Restaurant Base for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 2021. No restaurants were excluded from the Comparable Restaurant Base for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2022.
  • Net New Restaurant Openings - Net New Restaurant Openings reflect the number of new sweetgreen restaurant openings during a given reporting period, net of any permanent sweetgreen restaurant closures during the same period.
  • Same-Store Sales Change - Same-Store Sales Change reflects the percentage change in year-over-year revenue for the relevant fiscal period for all restaurants that have operated for at least 13 full fiscal months as of the end of such fiscal period; provided, that for any restaurant that has had a temporary closure (which historically has been defined as a closure of at least five days during which the restaurant would have otherwise been open) during any prior or current fiscal month, such fiscal month, as well as the corresponding fiscal month for the prior or current fiscal year, as applicable, will be excluded when calculating Same-Store Sales Change for that restaurant. As a result of temporary closures of 19 restaurants due to the COVID-19 pandemic during fiscal year 2020, Same-Store Sales Change has been adjusted for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 2021. Additionally, as a result of temporary closures of 56 restaurants due to civil disturbances that occurred during one week in the second fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2020, we excluded only one week from the calculation of Same-Store Sales Change for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 2021. This is because excluding an entire fiscal month for these restaurants, which represented a significant portion of our restaurant fleet, would result in a Same-Store Sales Change figure that is not representative of our business as a whole. This financial measure highlights the performance of existing restaurants, while excluding the impact of new restaurant openings and closures.
  • Total Digital Revenue Percentage and Owned Digital Revenue Percentage - Our Total Digital Revenue Percentage is the percentage of our revenue attributed to purchases made through our total digital channels (which includes our owned digital channels and our marketplace channel). Our Owned Digital Revenue Percentage is the percentage of our revenue attributed to purchases made through our owned digital channels (which includes our pick-up channel, native delivery channel, and outpost channel, as well as purchases made in our in-store channel via digital scan-to-pay).

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our consolidated financial statements, which are presented in accordance with GAAP, we present certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Restaurant-Level Profit, Restaurant-Level Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin. We believe these measures are useful to investors and others in evaluating our performance because these measures:

  • facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. These potential differences may be caused by variations in capital structures (affecting interest expense), tax positions (such as the impact on periods or companies of changes in effective tax rates or NOL), and the age and book depreciation of facilities and equipment (affecting relative depreciation expense);
  • are widely used by analysts, investors, and competitors to measure a company’s operating performance; are used by our management and board of directors for various purposes, including as measures of performance, as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting; and
  • are used internally for a number of benchmarks including to compare our performance to that of our competitors.

We define Restaurant-Level Profit as loss from operations adjusted to exclude general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, pre-opening costs, loss on disposal of property and equipment, and, in certain periods, impairment of long-lived assets and closed-store costs. Restaurant-Level Profit Margin is Restaurant-Level Profit as a percentage of revenue. As it excludes general and administrative expense, which is primarily attributable to our sweetgreen Support Center, we evaluate Restaurant-Level Profit and Restaurant-Level Profit Margin as a measure of profitability of our restaurants.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss adjusted to exclude interest income, interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, loss on disposal of property and equipment, Spyce acquisition costs, other income, and, in certain periods, impairment of long-lived assets and closed-store costs. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.

Restaurant-Level Profit, Restaurant-Level Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. In particular, Restaurant-Level Profit and Adjusted EBITDA should not be viewed as substitutes for, or superior to, loss from operations or net loss prepared in accordance with GAAP as a measure of profitability. Some of these limitations are:

  • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and Restaurant-Level Profit and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect all cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;
  • Restaurant-Level Profit and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
  • Restaurant-Level Profit and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of the recording or release of valuation allowances or tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us;
  • Restaurant-Level Profit and Adjusted EBITDA do not consider the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation;
  • Restaurant-Level Profit is not indicative of overall results of the Company and does not accrue directly to the benefit of stockholders, as corporate-level expenses are excluded;
  • Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account any income or costs that management determines are not indicative of ongoing operating performance, such as stock-based compensation, loss on disposal of property and equipment, Spyce acquisition costs, certain other expenses, and, in certain periods, impairment of long-lived assets and closed-store costs; and
  • other companies, including those in our industry, may calculate Restaurant-Level Profit and Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.

Because of these limitations, you should consider Restaurant-Level Profit, Restaurant-Level Profit Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin alongside other financial performance measures, loss from operations, net loss, and our other GAAP results.

Our results for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 2021 have been adjusted to reflect the material, temporary closures of 19 restaurants in fiscal year 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic by excluding such restaurants from the Comparable Restaurant Base. Without these adjustments, AUV would have been $2.2 million as of June 27, 2021. No restaurants were excluded from the Comparable Restaurant Base for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2022.

(2)

Our results for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 2021 have been adjusted to reflect the temporary closures of 19 restaurants in fiscal year 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the temporary closures of 56 restaurants due to civil disturbances that occurred during one week in the second fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2020. Without these adjustments, Same Store Sales Change would have been 106% and 16% for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 27, 2021, respectively.
