Briefing
Dine Brands experienced significant improvement in domestic system-wide comparable same-restaurant sales and maintained a strong cash position.
Dine Brands Global reported strong second-quarter results, driven by significant improvements in comparable sales for both Applebee's and IHOP. Applebee's posted its best quarterly comp sales performance in over a decade relative to 2019, while IHOP's comp sales also improved markedly. The company's solid fundamentals generated significant adjusted free cash flow, enabling it to maintain a healthy cash position. However, the company remains tempered by continued volatility, including labor shortages and variants of COVID-19.
- Applebee’s year-over-year comparable same-restaurant sales increased 102.2%.
- IHOP’s comparable same-restaurant sales increased 120.1%.
- Consolidated adjusted EBITDA was $71.7 million compared to $12.1 million for the second quarter of 2020.
- Adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.94 compared to an adjusted net loss per diluted share of $0.87 for the second quarter of 2020.
