BURGER KING WORLDWIDE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

(Tabular amounts in millions of dollars unless noted otherwise)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”) in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, the Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2013.

The Financial Statements include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Investments in affiliates owned 50% or less and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which we are not deemed to be the primary beneficiary are accounted for by the equity method. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

We have investments in certain franchisee entities that are VIEs. We are required to consolidate VIEs where we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that possesses the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are significant to it. The principal entities in which we possess a variable interest are accounted for under the equity method, as we have determined we are not the primary beneficiary.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the Financial Statements. The results for interim periods do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our Financial Statements and Notes to the Financial Statements. Management adjusts such estimates and assumptions when facts and circumstances dictate. Such estimates and assumptions may be affected by volatile credit, equity, foreign currency, energy markets and declines in consumer spending. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.

Certain prior year amounts in the accompanying Financial Statements and Notes to the Financial Statements have been reclassified in order to be comparable with the current year classifications. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income.

Note 2. New Accounting Pronouncements

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we adopted a Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) accounting standards update that amends accounting guidance to require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amounts reclassified are required by GAAP to be reclassified to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period. The disclosures required by this accounting standards update are included in this report.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we adopted an accounting standards update that amends accounting guidance for the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a reporting entity (parent) ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business within a foreign entity. Accordingly, the cumulative translation adjustment should be released into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. The adoption of this accounting standard update did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2012 Revolving Credit Facility

As of September 30, 2013, we had no amounts outstanding under the 2012 Revolving Credit Facility. Funds available under the 2012 Revolving Credit Facility for future borrowings may be used to repay other debt, finance debt or share repurchases, acquisitions, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes. We have a $75.0 million letter of credit sublimit as part of the 2012 Revolving Credit Facility, which reduces our borrowing capacity under this facility by the cumulative amount of outstanding letters of credit. As of September 30, 2013, we had no letters of credit issued against the 2012 Revolving Credit Facility and our borrowing capacity was $130.0 million.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

We recorded a $23.0 million loss on early extinguishment of debt during the three months ended September 30, 2012 in connection with the refinancing of term loans outstanding under the 2011 Amended Credit Agreement with the 2012 Credit Agreement. We recorded a $34.2 million loss on early extinguishment of debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 in connection with the refinancing, as well as prepayments of term loans prior to the refinancing and repurchases of our Discount Notes and Senior Notes.

Our derivatives are valued using a discounted cash flow analysis that incorporates observable market parameters, such as interest rate yield curves and currency rates, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. Derivative valuations incorporate credit risk adjustments that are necessary to reflect the probability of default by us or the counterparty.

Investment held in a rabbi trust consist of money market funds and mutual funds and the fair value measurements are derived using quoted prices in active markets for the specific funds which are based on Level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value measurements of the ERP liabilities are derived principally from observable market data which are based on Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

At September 30, 2013, the fair value of our variable rate term debt and bonds was estimated at $3.1 billion, compared to a carrying amount of $2.9 billion, net of original issue discount. At December 31, 2012, the fair value of our variable rate term debt and bonds was estimated at $3.1 billion, compared to a carrying amount of $2.9 billion, net of original issue discount. Fair value of variable rate term debt was estimated using inputs based on bid and offer prices and are Level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. Fair value of the Senior Notes and Discount Notes was estimated using quoted market prices and are Level 1 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.

Certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to periodic impairment tests. These items primarily include long-lived assets, the Brand and other intangible assets.

With respect to our assets held for sale recorded at fair value, the fair value measurements are typically based on binding purchase prices from acquirers of Company restaurants that we plan to refranchise. In certain cases, our corporate development team may develop fair value estimates for assets held for sale for which there is no binding purchase price. These fair value measurements, which are based on Level 3 inputs, and changes in fair value measurements are reviewed and assessed each quarter for assets classified as held for sale by our corporate development team. Our corporate development team utilizes its knowledge of the FFHR industry and historical experience in refranchising transactions in establishing the valuation process, which is generally based on a market approach. Under the market approach, our corporate development team uses transaction prices for refranchisings that were recently completed, adjusting where necessary for factors specific to the assets held for sale.

Assets held for sale totaled $9.3 million at September 30, 2013 and $23.9 million at December 31, 2012 and consisted primarily of goodwill and machinery and equipment to be sold in connection with refranchisings.

Table of Contents

We assess the fair value less costs to sell of assets held for sale each reporting period they remain classified as held for sale. We report subsequent changes in the fair value less costs to sell of assets held for sale as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the assets held for sale. However, the adjusted carrying amount cannot exceed the carrying amount of the long-lived asset at the time it was initially classified as held for sale. We did not record any impairment charges associated with assets held for sale during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 as well as during the three months ended September 30, 2012. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded impairment losses of $13.2 million associated with long-lived assets for restaurants we classified as held for sale.

Note 10. Derivative Instruments

We enter into derivative instruments for risk management purposes, including derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, derivatives designated as net investment hedges and those utilized as economic hedges. We use derivatives to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and currency exchange rates. See Note 9 for fair value measurements of our derivative instruments.

Interest Rate Caps

We have entered into interest rate cap agreements to manage interest rate risk. Such agreements cap the borrowing rate on variable debt to provide a hedge against the risk of rising rates. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we had interest rate cap agreements (notional amount of $1.3 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively) (the “Cap Agreements”) to mitigate the impact of fluctuations in the three-month LIBOR and effectively cap the LIBOR applicable to our variable rate debt at a weighted-average rate of 1.75%. The six year Cap Agreements are a series of individual caplets that reset and settle quarterly through October 19, 2016 consistent with the payment dates of our LIBOR-based term debt.

Under the terms of the Cap Agreements, if LIBOR resets above a strike price, we will receive the net difference between LIBOR and the strike price. We have elected our applicable rate per annum as Eurocurrency rate determined by reference to LIBOR. In addition, on the quarterly settlement dates, we will remit the deferred premium payment (plus interest) to the counterparty, whether LIBOR resets above or below the strike price.

The Cap Agreements are designated as cash flow hedges and to the extent they are effective in offsetting the variability of the variable rate interest payments, changes in the derivatives’ fair values are not included in current earnings but are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. At each cap maturity date, the portion of the fair value attributable to the matured cap will be reclassified from AOCI into earnings as a component of interest expense.

From time to time as we prepay portions of the 2012 Term Loan Facility, we may modify our Cap Agreements to reduce the notional amount. The terms of the Cap Agreements will not otherwise be revised by these modifications. On the modification date, the portion of the fair value attributable to the modified cap will be reclassified from AOCI into earnings as a component of interest expense.

Cross-currency Rate Swaps

To protect the value of our investments in our foreign operations against adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates, we may, from time to time, hedge a portion of our net investment in one or more of our foreign subsidiaries. At September 30, 2013, we had outstanding cross-currency rate swaps with an aggregate notional value of $430.0 million to hedge a portion of the net investment in our Switzerland subsidiary, Burger King Europe GmbH. A total notional value of $230.0 million of these swaps are contracts to exchange quarterly fixed-rate interest payments we make in Euros for quarterly fixed-rate interest payments we receive in U.S. dollars and mature on October 19, 2016. A total notional value of $200.0 million of these swaps are contracts to exchange quarterly floating-rate interest payments we make in Euros based on EURIBOR for quarterly floating-rate interest payments we receive in U.S. dollars based on LIBOR and mature on September 28, 2017. These cross-currency rate swaps also require the exchange of Euros and U.S. dollar principal payments upon maturity. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized in AOCI to offset the change in the carrying amount of the net investment being hedged. Amounts are reclassified out of AOCI into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.

Forward-Starting Interest Rate Swaps

At September 30, 2013, we had outstanding three forward-starting interest rate swaps with a total notional value of $2.3 billion to hedge the variability of forecasted interest payments attributable to changes in LIBOR. The forward-starting interest rate swaps effectively fix LIBOR on $1.0 billion of floating-rate debt beginning 2015 and an additional $1.3 billion of floating-rate debt starting 2016. The hedges have a seven year maturity. We account for these hedges as cash flow hedges, and as such, the effective portion of unrealized changes in market value has been recorded in AOCI and is reclassified to income during the period in which the hedge transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses from hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in current earnings.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

From time to time, we enter into foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge the remeasurement of certain foreign currency-denominated intercompany loans receivable and other foreign-currency denominated assets recorded in our consolidated balance sheets. The forward currency forward contracts are not designated as hedging instruments. Gains and losses on foreign currency forward contracts are recognized in other (income) expense, net and are offset by the gains or losses resulting from the settlement of the underlying foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. At September 30, 2013, we had foreign currency forward contracts with a total notional amount of $51.5 million maturing within the next 3 months.

Credit Risk

By entering into derivative instrument contracts, we are exposed to counterparty credit risk. Counterparty credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is in an asset position, the counterparty has a liability to us, which creates credit risk for us. We attempt to minimize this risk by selecting counterparties with investment grade credit ratings and regularly monitoring our market position with each counterparty.

Credit-Risk Related Contingent Features

Our derivative instruments do not contain any credit-risk related contingent features.

Amended and Restated 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which increased the shares available for issuance under the Plan from 8,500,000 to 14,500,000. The Plan was approved by our stockholders at our annual meeting on May 15, 2013.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, approximately 3,015,000 stock options were granted. These awards generally cliff vest five years from the original grant date and expire ten years following the grant date.

We recorded $2.4 million of share-based compensation expense in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. We recorded $7.1 million of share-based compensation expense in selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $9.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Note 12. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period adjusted for the dilutive effect of stock options. We exclude stock options from the calculation of diluted earnings per share if the effect of including such stock options is anti-dilutive.

Basic and diluted earnings per share are as follows (in millions, except per share information):

Closures and Dispositions

Gains and losses on closures and dispositions represent sales of Company properties and other costs related to restaurant closures and refranchisings, and are recorded in other operating (income) expenses, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Gains and losses recognized in the current period may reflect closures and refranchisings that occurred in previous periods.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, net (gains) losses on disposal of assets, restaurant closures and refranchisings consisted of net losses associated with refranchisings of $0.4 million and net gains associated with asset disposals and restaurant closures of $0.1 million.

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, net (gains) losses on disposal of assets, restaurant closures and refranchisings consisted of net losses associated with refranchisings of $12.4 million and net losses associated with asset disposals and restaurant closures of $1.7 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net (gains) losses on disposal of assets, restaurant closures and refranchisings consisted of net gains associated with refranchisings of $2.3 million, net losses from sale of subsidiaries of $1.0 million and net losses associated with asset disposals and restaurant closures of $1.9 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net (gains) losses on disposal of assets, restaurant closures and refranchisings consisted of net gains associated with refranchisings of $4.8 million, impairment losses associated with long-lived assets for Company restaurants of $13.2 million and net losses associated with asset disposals and restaurant closures of $6.8 million.

Note 15. Guarantees, Commitments and Contingencies

In some of the matters described below, loss contingencies are not both probable and estimable in the view of management and, accordingly, reserves have not been established for those matters. However, information is provided below or included in Note 19, “Commitments and Contingencies” to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2013 regarding the nature of the contingency and, where specified, the amount of the claim associated with the loss contingency.

Litigation

On March 1, 2013, a putative class action lawsuit was filed against Burger King Corporation in the U.S. District Court of Maryland. The complaint alleges that BKC and/or its agents sent unsolicited advertisements by fax to thousands of consumers in Maryland and elsewhere in the United States to promote its home delivery program in violation of the Telephone Consumers Protection Act. It is not possible at this time to determine the likelihood of class certification in this case or reasonably estimate the probability or amount of liability for monetary damages on a class wide basis.

Table of Contents

From time to time, we are involved in other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business relating to matters including, but not limited to, disputes with franchisees, suppliers, employees and customers, as well as disputes over our intellectual property.

Guarantees

From time to time, we enter into agreements under which we guarantee loans made by third parties to qualified franchisees. As of September 30, 2013, there were $107.0 million of loans outstanding to franchisees that we had guaranteed under five such programs, with additional franchisee borrowing capacity of approximately $219.8 million remaining. Our maximum guarantee liability under these five programs is limited to an aggregate of $31.9 million, assuming full utilization of all borrowing capacity. As of September 30, 2013, the liability reflecting the fair value of these guarantee obligations was $4.3 million. No events of default have occurred and no significant payments have been made by us in connection with these guarantees through September 30, 2013.

Note 16. Segment Reporting

We operate in the fast food hamburger restaurant category of the quick service restaurant segment of the restaurant industry. Revenues include retail sales at Company restaurants and franchise revenues, consisting primarily of royalties based on a percentage of sales reported by franchise restaurants and franchise fees paid by franchisees as well as property income we derive from properties we lease or sublease to our franchisees. Our business is managed in four distinct geographic segments: (1) United States (“U.S.”) and Canada; (2) Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); (3) Latin America and the Caribbean (“LAC”); and (4) Asia Pacific (“APAC”).

The unallocated amounts reflected in the table below include corporate support costs in areas such as facilities, finance, human resources, information technology, legal, marketing and supply chain management, which benefit all of our geographic segments and system wide restaurants and are not allocated specifically to any of the geographic segments.

Our measure of segment income is adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude specifically identified items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations and assists management in comparing segment performance by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not reflect our core operations.

Note 17. Supplemental Financial Information

On October 19, 2010, Burger King Corporation (“BKC”) issued the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes are irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by Burger King Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”) and the U.S. subsidiaries of BKC (the “Guarantors”). On April 19, 2011, Burger King Capital Holdings, LLC (“BKCH”) and Burger King Capital Finance, Inc. (“BKCF” and together with BKCH, the “Issuers”) issued the Discount Notes. In August 2012, the Company entered into a Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Senior Notes and a Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Discount Notes (the “Supplemental Indentures”) to guarantee BKC’s obligations under the Senior Notes and the Issuers’ obligations under the Discount Notes. The Supplemental Indentures allow the financial reporting obligation under the Indentures to be satisfied through the reporting of the Company’s consolidated financial information. The 2012 Credit Agreement allows the financial reporting obligation of BKC to be satisfied through the reporting of the Company’s consolidated financial information, provided that the financial information of BKC and its subsidiaries is presented on a standalone basis. The non-U.S. subsidiaries are identified below as Non-Guarantors.

The following represents the condensed consolidating financial information for BKC (Issuer), the Guarantors and the non-U.S. subsidiaries of BKC (the “Non-Guarantors”), together with eliminations, as of and for the periods indicated. The condensed consolidating financial information of BKW is combined with the financial information of BKCF and presented in a single column under the heading “BKW.” Selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidating statements of operations only pertain to professional fees and other transaction costs incurred by BKW associated with the Business Combination Agreement. The consolidating financial information may not necessarily be indicative of the financial position, results of operations or cash flows had BKC, Guarantors and Non-Guarantors operated as independent entities.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

You should read the following discussion together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 “Financial Statements.” Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Burger King Worldwide, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Burger King Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”) and Burger King Corporation (“BKC”).

Operating results for any one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other quarter or for the  fiscal year and our key business measures, as discussed below, may decrease for any future period. Unless otherwise stated, comparable sales growth and sales growth are presented on a system-wide basis, which means they include sales at both Company restaurants and franchise restaurants. Franchise sales represent sales at all franchise restaurants and are revenues to our  franchisees. We do not record franchise sales as revenues; however, our franchise revenues include royalties based on a percentage of franchise sales. System-wide results are driven primarily by our franchise restaurants, as approximately 99% of our system-wide restaurants are franchised.

Overview

Burger King Worldwide, Inc. (“BKW”, the “Company” or “we”) is a Delaware corporation formed on April 2, 2012 and the indirect parent of Burger King Corporation (“BKC”), a Florida corporation that franchises and operates fast food hamburger restaurants, principally under the Burger King® brand. We are the world’s second largest fast food hamburger restaurant, or FFHR, chain as measured by the total number of restaurants. As of September 30, 2013, we owned or franchised a total of 13,259 restaurants in 91 countries and U.S. territories. Of these restaurants, 74 were Company restaurants and 13,185, or approximately 99% of all Burger King restaurants, were owned by our franchisees. Our restaurants are limited service restaurants that feature flame-grilled hamburgers, chicken and other specialty sandwiches, french fries, soft drinks and other affordably-priced food items. We believe our restaurants appeal to a broad spectrum of consumers, with multiple day parts appealing to different customer groups. During our more than 50 years of operating history, we have developed a scalable and cost-efficient quick service hamburger restaurant model that offers customers fast, delicious food at affordable prices.

We generate revenues from three sources: (1) franchise revenues, consisting primarily of royalties based on a percentage of sales reported by franchise restaurants and fees paid by franchisees, (2) property income from properties that we lease or sublease to franchisees, and (3) retail sales at Company restaurants. Revenues derived from our franchise system comprised 90% of our revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to 46% of our revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2012, reflecting the refranchisings completed during the 12-month period in connection with our global portfolio realignment project (as defined below).

Recent Events and Factors Affecting Comparability

Global Portfolio Realignment Project

During 2011, we initiated a project to realign our global restaurant portfolio by refranchising our Company restaurants and establishing strategic partnerships to accelerate development through joint ventures and master franchise and development agreements (the “global portfolio realignment project”). As a result of the global portfolio realignment project, we incurred $4.7 million of general and administrative expenses consisting of professional fees and severance, including $1.5 million of severance related to the departure of our Chairman, North America, during the three months ended September 30, 2013, $7.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012, $23.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and $20.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we refranchised 33 restaurants in the United States and 94 restaurants in Canada and entered into a master franchise and development agreement for Canada with the franchisee. During the same period, we refranchised 98 Company restaurants in Mexico to a joint venture with an existing franchisee in exchange for cash and a minority interest in the joint venture and entered into a master franchise and development agreement for Mexico with the joint venture. We also refranchised 91 restaurants in Germany and 22 restaurants in Spain. Upon completion of our refranchising initiative, we will continue to own and operate 52 restaurants in Miami, Florida, which we expect to use as a base for the testing of new products and systems. We expect to complete our refranchising initiative by the end of 2013, at which time our global portfolio realignment project will also be completed. We expect to continue to enter into joint ventures and master franchise and development agreements as part of our business strategy to accelerate development, but we do not intend to make any adjustments based on expenses that we incur in connection with these arrangements.

Merger with Justice

Business Combination Agreement Expenses

On April 3, 2012, Burger King Worldwide Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and the indirect parent company of Holdings (“Worldwide”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement and Plan of Merger with Justice Holdings Limited and its affiliates (the “Business Combination Agreement”). We did not incur any expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 related to the Business Combination Agreement. We recorded $0.6 million of general and administrative expenses associated with the Business Combination Agreement during the three months ended September 30, 2012, consisting of professional fees and other transaction costs. We recorded $25.7 million of general and administrative expenses associated with the Business Combination Agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, consisting of $5.9 million of one-time share-based compensation expense as a result of the increase in our equity value implied by the Business Combination Agreement and $19.8 million of professional fees and other transaction costs.

Operating Metrics and Key Financial Measures

We evaluate our restaurants and assess our business based on the following operating metrics and key financial measures:

 

   

System-wide sales growth refers to the change in sales at all Company and franchise restaurants in one period from the same period in the prior year.

 

   

Franchise sales represent sales at all franchise restaurants and are revenues to our franchisees. We do not record franchise sales as revenues; however, our franchise revenues include royalties based on a percentage of franchise sales.

 

   

Comparable sales growth refers to the change in restaurant sales in one period from the same prior year period for restaurants that have been opened for thirteen months or longer. Company restaurants refranchised during a period will be included in the calculation of comparable sales growth for franchise restaurants during the period regardless of when the refranchising occurred.

 

   

Net restaurant growth (“NRG”) represents the opening of new restaurants during a stated period, net of closures.

 

   

Net refranchisings refer to sales of Company restaurants to franchisees, net of acquisitions of franchise restaurants by us.

Comparable sales growth and system-wide sales growth are measured on a constant currency basis, which means the results exclude the effect of foreign currency translation and are calculated by translating current year results at prior year exchange rates. We analyze certain key financial measures on a constant currency basis as this helps identify underlying business trends, without distortion from the effects of currency movements (“FX impact”).

In addition, we evaluate our Company restaurants and assess our total business based on the following key financial measures:

 

   

Company restaurant margin, or CRM, is derived by subtracting Company restaurant expenses from Company restaurant revenues for a stated period, which we analyze as a percentage of Company restaurant revenues, a metric we refer to as Company restaurant margin %, or CRM%. We review the relationship between our Company restaurant expenses and Company restaurant revenues in the context of how those relationships affect CRM and CRM%. As a result of our refranchising initiative, the impact of CRM and CRM% on our operating results has substantially diminished.

 

   

Adjusted EBITDA represents earnings (net income or loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization adjusted to exclude specifically identified items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations. See Non-GAAP Reconciliations.

System Comparable Sales Growth

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, worldwide system comparable sales growth was driven by comparable sales growth in the EMEA, LAC and APAC segments, partially offset by negative comparable sales growth in the U.S. and Canada segment.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, worldwide system comparable sales growth was flat, with comparable sales growth in the EMEA and APAC segments offset by negative comparable sales growth in the U.S. and Canada and LAC segments.

Company restaurants

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Company restaurant revenues decreased primarily due to the net refranchising of 519 Company restaurants during the trailing twelve-month period.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, CRM% increased primarily as a result of the net refranchising of 519 Company restaurants with lower than average CRM% during the trailing twelve-month period.

Franchise and Property

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property revenues increased due to higher royalties and rental income driven by franchise comparable sales growth in EMEA, APAC and LAC, franchise NRG of 594 restaurants during the trailing twelve-month period and the net refranchising of 519 Company restaurants during the same period. Additionally, franchise fees and other revenue increased as a result of higher franchise fees in EMEA and APAC and other revenue in the U.S. and Canada. These factors were partially offset by negative franchise comparable sales growth in the U.S. and Canada and unfavorable FX impact.

These factors were partially offset by negative franchise comparable sales growth in the U.S. and Canada and LAC and unfavorable FX impact.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property expenses increased primarily due to new leases and subleases associated with additional restaurants leased or subleased to franchisees as a result of the refranchisings partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense and favorable FX impact.

Selling expenses consist primarily of Company restaurant advertising fund contributions. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, selling expenses decreased primarily as a result of the refranchisings.

Management general and administrative expenses (“Management G&A”) are comprised primarily of salary and employee related costs for our non-restaurant employees, professional fees and general overhead for our corporate offices. The decrease in Management G&A in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was driven primarily by a decrease in salary and fringe benefits.

The decrease in our total general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was driven primarily by a decrease in Management G&A, a decrease in global portfolio realignment project costs, lower depreciation and amortization expenses and the non-recurrence of Business Combination Agreement expenses, partially offset by an increase in share-based compensation and non-cash incentive compensation expense.

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, net (gains) losses on disposals of assets, restaurant closures and refranchisings consisted of $12.4 million in net losses associated with refranchisings and $1.7 million of net losses associated with asset disposals and restaurant closures. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net (gain) losses on disposal of assets, restaurant closures and refranchisings consisted of $4.8 million in net gains associated with refranchisings, $13.2 million of impairment losses associated with long-lived assets for Company restaurants and $6.8 million of net losses associated with asset disposals and restaurant closures.

The increase in equity in net loss from unconsolidated affiliates for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 mainly pertains to losses recognized on our equity investments acquired during the second quarter of 2012. These equity losses from unconsolidated affiliates were driven primarily by integration costs, litigation settlement costs and start up costs incurred by our unconsolidated affiliates.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 interest expense, net decreased compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 due to a lower weighted average interest rate as a result of the 2012 refinancing and reduced borrowings resulting from principal payments and prepayments of our term loans prior to the 2012 refinancing and repurchases of our Senior Notes and Discount Notes during 2012.

Loss on early extinguishment of debt

We recorded a $23.0 million loss on early extinguishment of debt during the three months ended September 30, 2012 in connection with the refinancing of term loans outstanding under the 2011 Amended Credit Agreement with the 2012 Credit Agreement. We recorded a $34.2 million loss on early extinguishment of debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 in connection with the refinancing, as well as prepayments of term loans prior to the refinancing and repurchases of our Discount Notes and Senior Notes.

Income tax expense

Our effective tax rate was 28.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2013, primarily as a result of the current mix of income from multiple tax jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate was 51.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as a result of the mix of income during the period from multiple tax jurisdictions and the impact of non-deductible losses and costs on refranchisings primarily in foreign jurisdictions.

Table of Contents

Our effective tax rate was 28.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, primarily as a result of the current mix of income from multiple tax jurisdictions and the impact of non-deductible expenses related to our global portfolio realignment project, partially offset by a favorable impact from the sale of foreign subsidiaries. Our effective tax rate was 29.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as a result of the mix of income during the period from multiple tax jurisdictions and the impact of non-deductible losses and costs of refranchisings primarily in foreign jurisdictions.

Net Income

Our net income increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 primarily as a result of an increase in income from operations as a result of the factors discusses above, a decrease in interest expense, net and the non-recurrence of loss on early extinguishment of debt, partially offset by an increase in income tax expense.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

The tables below contain information regarding EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP measures. EBITDA is defined as net income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, loss on early extinguishment of debt and income tax expense. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding the impact of share-based compensation and non-cash incentive compensation expense, other operating expenses (income), net, and all other specifically identified costs associated with non-recurring projects, including global portfolio realignment project costs and Business Combination Agreement expenses. Share-based compensation and non-cash incentive compensation expense for the 2012 periods have been adjusted to be comparable to the 2013 presentation to reflect the portion of annual non-cash incentive compensation that eligible employees elected to receive as common equity in lieu of their 2012 cash bonus. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to measure operating performance of the business, excluding specifically identified items that management believes do not directly reflect our core operations, and represents our measure of segment income.

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA in the three months ended September 30, 2013 reflects increases in segment income in our U.S. and Canada, EMEA and APAC segments, partially offset by a decrease in segment income in our LAC segment and an increase in Unallocated Management G&A. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 reflects increases in segment income in our EMEA and APAC segments, partially offset by decreases in segment income in our U.S and Canada and LAC segments and increases in Unallocated Management G&A. Unallocated Management G&A represents corporate support costs in areas such as facilities, finance, human resources, information technology, legal, marketing and supply chain management, which benefit all of our geographic segments and system-wide restaurants and are not allocated specifically to any of the geographic segments. EBITDA for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased primarily for the same reasons that consolidated adjusted EBITDA increased as well as decreases in Business Combination Agreement expenses and decreases in other operating expenses (income), net.

Results of Operations for U.S. and Canada

System Comparable Sales Growth

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, negative system comparable sales growth in the U.S. and Canada was primarily due to continued softness in consumer spending and ongoing competitive headwinds.

Company restaurants

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Company restaurant revenues decreased primarily due to the refranchising of 307 Company restaurants during the trailing twelve-month period.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, CRM% increased primarily as a result of the net refranchising of 307 Company restaurants with lower than average CRM% during the trailing twelve-month period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, CRM% decreased primarily as a result of the deleveraging effect of negative Company comparable sales growth on our fixed occupancy and other operating costs, partially offset by the net refranchising of 307 Company restaurants with lower than average CRM% during the trailing twelve-month period.

Franchise and Property

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property revenues increased primarily due to higher royalties and rental income derived from the net refranchising of 307 Company restaurants during the trailing twelve-month period, as well as an increase of approximately $9.0 million in other revenue. These factors were partially offset by the effects of negative franchise comparable sales growth and negative franchise NRG. FX impact was not significant.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property expenses increased primarily due to new leases and subleases associated with additional restaurants leased or subleased to franchisees as a result of the refranchisings, partially offset by a decrease in bad debt expense. FX impact was not significant.

Segment income and segment margin

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, segment income increased due to an increase in net franchise and property income and a decrease in segment selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”), partially offset by a decrease in CRM.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, segment income decreased due to a decrease in CRM, partially offset by an increase in net franchise and property income and a decrease in SG&A.

Segment margin increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, primarily as a result of the higher contribution of franchise and property revenues in the segment, which typically yields higher margins than Company restaurant revenues, after the completion of the refranchisings.

Results of Operations for EMEA

System Comparable Sales Growth

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, system comparable sales growth in EMEA was driven by comparable sales growth in Germany, Spain and Turkey.

Company restaurants

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, Company restaurant revenues decreased primarily due to the net refranchising of 114 Company restaurants during the trailing twelve-month period.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, CRM% increased primarily as a result of the net refranchising of 114 Company restaurants with lower than average CRM% during the trailing twelve-month period. These factors were partially offset by the deleveraging effect of negative Company comparable sales growth on our fixed occupancy and other operating costs and increased food, paper and product costs.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, CRM% increased primarily as a result of the leveraging effect of Company comparable sales growth on our fixed occupancy and other operating costs, the net refranchising of 114 Company restaurants with lower than average CRM% during the trailing twelve-month period and lower depreciation expense. These factors were partially offset by wage rate increases in Germany.

Franchise and Property

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property revenues increased due to an increase in royalties driven by franchise comparable sales growth, franchise NRG of 296 restaurants during the trailing twelve-month period and the net refranchising of 114 Company restaurants during the same period. Additionally, franchise revenue increased as a result of higher initial franchise fees due to an increase in the number of restaurant openings and favorable FX impact. These factors were partially offset by a decrease in rental income in Germany as a result of the transfer of certain properties subleased to franchisees in connection with our Germany refranchising.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property expenses decreased primarily as a result of the transfer of certain properties subleased to franchisees in connection with our Germany refranchising, partially offset by an increase in bad debt expense as a result of higher recoveries in the prior year. FX impact was not significant.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property expenses increased due to rent expense associated with additional properties leased or subleased to franchisees as a result of refranchisings during the trailing twelve-month period, partially offset by a decrease in rent expense in Germany as a result of the transfer of certain properties subleased to franchisees in connection with our Germany refranchising. FX impact was not significant.

Segment income and segment margin

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, segment income increased primarily due to an increase in net franchise and property income and a decrease in segment SG&A, partially offset by a decrease in CRM.

Segment margin increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, primarily as a result of the higher contribution of franchise and property revenues in the segment, which typically yields higher margins than Company restaurant revenues, after the completion of the refranchisings, and an increase in CRM%.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, negative system comparable sales growth in LAC was driven by negative comparable sales growth in Mexico and Puerto Rico, partially offset by system comparable sales growth in Brazil.

Company restaurants

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, Company restaurant revenues decreased primarily due to the refranchising of 98 Company restaurants on April 1, 2013.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, CRM% decreased primarily as a result of the deleveraging effect of negative Company comparable sales on our fixed occupancy and other operating costs. FX impact was not significant.

Franchise and Property

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property revenues increased due to higher royalties driven by franchise comparable sales growth, franchise NRG of 171 restaurants during the trailing twelve-month period and the net refranchising of 98 Company restaurants during the same period. These factors were partially offset by unfavorable FX impact.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property revenues increased due to higher royalties driven by franchise NRG of 171 restaurants during the trailing twelve-month period and the net refranchising of 98 Company restaurants during the same period. These factors were partially offset by unfavorable FX impact and lower royalties driven by negative franchise comparable sales growth.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property expenses increased primarily due to increases in bad debt expenses. FX impact was not significant.

Segment income and segment margin

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, segment income decreased due to a decrease in CRM, partially offset by an increase in net franchise and property income and a decrease in segment SG&A.

Segment margin increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, primarily as a result of the higher contribution of franchise and property revenues in the segment, which typically yields higher margins than Company restaurant revenues, after the completion of the refranchisings, partially offset by a decrease in CRM%.

Results of Operations for APAC

System Comparable Sales Growth

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, system comparable sales growth in APAC was driven by comparable sales growth in Australia, Korea and China, partially offset by negative comparable sales growth in New Zealand and Japan.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, system comparable sales growth in APAC was driven by comparable sales growth in Australia and Korea, partially offset by negative comparable sales growth in China, New Zealand and Japan.

Franchise and Property

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property revenues increased due to higher royalties driven by franchise comparable sales growth, franchise NRG of 174 restaurants during the trailing twelve-month period and the net refranchising of 38 Company restaurants during September 2012. Additionally, franchise revenue increased as a result of higher initial franchise fees due to an increase in the number of restaurant openings. These factors were partially offset by unfavorable FX impact.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, franchise and property expenses were relatively unchanged from the prior year.

Segment income and segment margin

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, segment income increased primarily due to an increase in net franchise and property income and a decrease in segment SG&A.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, segment margin increased primarily as a result of the higher contribution of franchise and property revenues in the segment, which typically yields higher margins than Company restaurant revenues, after the completion of the refranchisings.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash generated by operations and borrowings available under our 2012 Revolving Credit Facility (defined below). We have used, and may in the future use, our liquidity to make required interest and principal payments, to voluntarily repay and/or repurchase our or one of our affiliate’s outstanding debt, to fund our investing activities, to repurchase our shares and/or to pay dividends. As a result of our borrowings, we are highly leveraged. Our liquidity requirements are significant, primarily due to debt service requirements.

At September 30, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $764.3 million and working capital of $682.5 million. In addition, at September 30, 2013, we had borrowing capacity of $130.0 million under our 2012 Revolving Credit Facility. Based on our current level of operations and available cash, we believe our cash flow from operations, combined with availability under our 2012 Revolving Credit Facility, will provide sufficient liquidity to fund our current obligations, debt service requirements and capital spending requirements over the next twelve months.

Our consolidated cash and cash equivalents include balances held in foreign tax jurisdictions that represent undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries, which are considered indefinitely reinvested for U.S. income tax purposes. We do not plan to utilize cash flows from our foreign subsidiaries to meet our future debt service requirements in the U.S. However, adverse income tax consequences could result if we are compelled to make unplanned transfers of cash to meet future liquidity requirements in the U.S.

Debt Instruments

Our long-term debt is comprised primarily of borrowings under our 2012 Credit Agreement (defined below), amounts outstanding under our Senior Notes and Discount Notes (each also defined below), and obligations under capital leases. For further information about our long-term debt, see Note 6 to the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.

As of September 30, 2013, we had $1,004.3 million in Tranche A Term Loans outstanding and $690.8 million of Tranche B Term Loans outstanding (the “2012 Term Loan Facility”) under our credit agreement dated September 28, 2012 (the “2012 Credit Agreement”). The 2012 Term Loan Facility, together with the revolving credit facility available under the 2012 Credit Agreement (the “2012 Revolving Credit Facility”) are collectively referred to as the “2012 Credit Facilities”. As of September 30, 2013, the interest rate was 2.50% on our outstanding Tranche A Term Loan and 3.75% on our outstanding Tranche B Term Loan. As of September 30, 2013, we had no amounts outstanding under the 2012 Revolving Credit Facility. Based on the amounts outstanding under the 2012 Term Loan Facility and the three-month LIBOR rate as of September 30, 2013, required debt service for the next twelve months is estimated to be approximately $51.0 million in interest payments and $58.6 million in principal payments.

As of September 30, 2013 we had outstanding $794.5 million of 9.875% senior notes due 2018 (the “Senior Notes”). In addition, as of September 30, 2013, we had outstanding $441.1 million of 11.0% senior discount notes due 2019 (the “Discount Notes”), which were issued by Burger King Capital Holdings, LLC and Burger King Capital Finance, Inc., our wholly-owned indirect subsidiaries.

As of September 30, 2013, we were in compliance with all covenants of the 2012 Credit Agreement and the indentures governing our Senior Notes and Discount Notes, and there were no limitations on our ability to draw on the availability under our 2012 Revolving Credit Facility.

Comparative Cash Flows

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $267.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $144.6 million during the same period in the prior year. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was driven primarily by changes in working capital resulting from the timing of advertising expenditures and lower interest and income tax payments and an increase in net income, excluding non-cash adjustments.

Investing Activities

Cash provided by investing activities was $38.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $27.4 million during the same period in the prior year. The increase in cash provided by investing activities was driven primarily as a result of a decrease in capital expenditures and a decrease in payments for acquired franchisee operations, partially offset by a decrease in proceeds from refranchisings, net.

Table of Contents

Capital expenditures have historically been comprised primarily of (i) costs to build new Company restaurants and new restaurants that we lease to franchisees, (ii) costs to maintain the appearance of existing restaurants in accordance with our standards, including investments in new equipment and remodeling costs and (iii) investments in information technology systems and corporate furniture and fixtures. The following table presents capital expenditures, by type of expenditure:

We expect cash capital expenditures of approximately $30.0 million to $40.0 million in 2013. Our actual capital expenditures may be affected by economic and other factors. We expect to fund capital expenditures from cash on hand and cash flow from operations.

Financing Activities

Cash used for financing activities was $90.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $148.7 million during the same period in the prior year. The decrease in cash used for financing activities was driven primarily as a result of cash used for the prepayment of term loans and repurchase of Senior Notes and Discount Notes and the payment of financing costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, partially offset by dividend payments during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Dividends

On February 14, 2013, our board declared a cash dividend of $0.05 per share, which was paid on March 15, 2013 to shareholders of record on February 28, 2013. On April 10, 2013, our board declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per share, which was paid on May 15, 2013 to shareholders of record on May 1, 2013. On July 30, 2013, our board declared a cash dividend of $0.06 per share, which was paid on August 30, 2013 to shareholders of record on August 15, 2013. On October 27, 2013, our board declared a cash dividend of $0.07 per share, to be paid on November 26, 2013 to shareholders of record on November 12, 2013. Future dividends will be determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000, we entered into long-term, exclusive contracts with soft drink vendors to supply Company and franchise restaurants with their products and obligating Burger King® restaurants in the United States to purchase a specified number of gallons of soft drink syrup. These volume commitments are not subject to any time limit and as of September 30, 2013, we estimate it will take approximately 14 years for these purchase commitments to be completed.

During 2011, we entered into a five-year contract with a vendor to supply Company and franchise restaurants in certain countries in LAC with soft drink products on an exclusive basis and to supply Company and franchise restaurants in the United States with food products. We received upfront fees and contributions to our marketing funds in connection with this agreement and may receive additional fees in the future in connection with the achievement of certain milestones. We recognize the fees earned in connection with milestone achievement as franchise and property revenue when it is reasonably estimable and probable. Upfront fees are amortized as franchise and property revenue over the term of the contract. As of September 30, 2013, the deferred income associated with this contract totaled $2.2 million.

In the event of early termination of any of these arrangements, we may be required to make termination payments that could be material to our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

From time to time, we enter into agreements under which we guarantee loans made by third parties to qualified franchisees. As of September 30, 2013, there were $107.0 million of loans outstanding to franchisees that we had guaranteed under five such programs, with additional franchisee borrowing capacity of approximately $219.8 million remaining. Our maximum guarantee liability under these five programs is limited to an aggregate of $31.9 million, assuming full utilization of all borrowing capacity. As of September 30, 2013, the liability reflecting the fair value of these guarantee obligations was $4.3 million. No significant payments have been made by us in connection with these guarantees through September 30, 2013.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

This discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our audited Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, as well as related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis and we base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions we deem reasonable to the situation. These estimates and assumptions form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Volatile credit, equity, foreign currency and energy markets, and declines in consumer spending have increased and may continue to create uncertainty inherent in such estimates and assumptions. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in our estimates could materially impact our results of operations and financial condition in any particular period. For a complete discussion of our critical and significant accounting policies and estimates, please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2013.

There were no material changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to the disclosures made in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2013 for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and Exchange Act Rules 15d-15(e)) as of September 30, 2013. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, confirm that there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 5. Other Information

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

On July 30, 2013, the Compensation Committee of the Company approved and adopted a new severance pay plan for eligible employees of BKC and its subsidiaries, including certain of the named executive officers (the “Severance Plan”). Pursuant to the Severance Plan, eligible employees whose employment is involuntarily terminated due to reductions in staff, position elimination, facility closing, closure of a business unit or organizational changes or restructuring are entitled to two weeks of severance for every year worked, with a two-week minimum and capped at five months for employees at the level of vice president and above.
