“We are pleased to post our third consecutive year of positive U.S. comparable traffic gains. The initiatives in place around daypart expansion and price optionality are helping to drive these gains with further revenue growth coming from our company-owned restaurant development,” said Larry Johnson, Chief Executive Officer of Fogo de Chão, Inc. “We plan to grow our restaurant base during 2017- opening up to seven locations in 2017, including up to two international joint venture locations, as well as driving our comparable restaurant sales by continuous innovation on our strategic platforms.”
Fourth Quarter 2016 Financial Results
Total revenue for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2016 was $80.9 million compared to $77.5 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2015. The $3.4 million increase is primarily attributable to new restaurant locations opened in the last 18 months and a favorable foreign exchange impact, offset by the incremental revenue generated during the extra week in Fiscal 2015 and a comparable sales decrease of 2.0%. Excluding the impact of the extra week in Fiscal 2015 and the foreign exchange impact, total revenues for the fourth quarter increased 11.2% over the prior year period.
U.S. restaurant revenue increased 5.0% to $68.6 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2016 primarily due to new restaurant locations opened in the last 18 months, offset by the incremental revenue generated during the extra week in Fiscal 2015, and a U.S. comparable restaurant sales decrease of 1.0%. Excluding the impact of the extra week in Fiscal 2015, U.S. restaurant revenue for the fourth quarter increased 15.6% over the prior year period.
Brazil restaurant revenue was $12.2 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2016 compared to $12.1 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2015. The favorable foreign exchange impact and incremental revenue attributable to the restaurant location opened in the last 18 months was virtually offset by a Brazil comparable restaurant sales decrease of 6.9%. Excluding the impact of the extra week in Fiscal 2015 and the favorable foreign exchange impact, Brazil restaurant revenue for the fourth quarter decreased 8.5% over the prior year period.
GAAP net income for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2016 was $7.7 million, compared to $12.9 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2015. Adjusted net income in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2016 was $8.0 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared to $8.3 million, or $0.29 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2015. Excluding the impact of the extra week in Fiscal 2015 and the unfavorable foreign exchange, adjusted net income for the fourth quarter increased 13.5% over the prior year period. A reconciliation between GAAP net income and adjusted net income is included in the accompanying financial data.
Development Update
As of January 1, 2017, the Company operated 45 restaurants, ten of which are in Brazil, and two joint venture restaurants in Mexico City.
The Company opened locations in Tysons, Virginia and Uptown in Dallas in January and February 2017, respectively. The Company plans to open at least three additional Company-owned restaurants during the remainder of Fiscal 2017, one of which is currently under construction, and up to two additional international joint venture restaurants. In addition to the restaurant under construction, the Company has three signed leases and is negotiating multiple letters of intent for planned 2017 and 2018 Company-owned locations.
Investors are reminded that the actual number and timing of new restaurant openings is subject to a number of factors outside of the Company's control including, but not limited to, weather conditions and factors under the control of landlords, contractors and regulatory/licensing authorities.
2017 Outlook
Based on current information, the Company is providing its initial guidance for the 52-week fiscal year 2017, which ends on December 31, 2017. Adjusted diluted net income per share is expected to range between $0.92 and $0.95, which represents growth of 7.0% to 11.0% over adjusted diluted net income per share of $0.86 in Fiscal 2016 . Adjusted diluted net income per share guidance for Fiscal 2017 is based, in part, on the following annual assumptions:
- Total revenue of $315 million to $320 million, assuming an exchange rate of 3.25 Brazilian reais to 1 U.S. dollar, which represents 10% to 12% growth on a constant currency and Olympics adjusted basis;
- Company-owned comparable restaurant sales of -0.5% to 0.5%;
- Restaurant contribution margin of 28.8% to 29.2%;
- Pre-opening expenses of $3.0 million to $3.5 million;
- General and administrative expenses of $20 million to $22 million;
- Opening up to seven restaurants, including up to two international joint venture locations;
- Capital expenditures of $26 million to $30 million;
- Depreciation expense of $18.5 million to $19.0 million; and
- Tax rate of 32% to 33%. (1) The Company’s 2016 results are adjusted for comparison to 2017 by ($0.02) to exclude the estimated effects of the Olympics benefit and by $0.01 to adjust 2016 to the same Brazilian Real exchange rate that we have projected for our 2017 guidance (3.25 reais to 1 U.S. dollar).
Guidance Policy
The Company intends to provide annual guidance as it relates to revenue, comparable restaurant sales growth, restaurant contribution margin, general and administrative expense, tax expense, and development schedule. The Company expressly disclaims any duty to update this guidance.

| (a) As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, we believe the presentation of certain results on a constant currency basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors’ ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. We use results on a constant currency basis as one measure to evaluate our performance. We calculate constant currency by retranslating results across all prior periods presented using a derived exchange rate for the most current year periods presented based on actual results. The tables set forth below calculate constant currency at a foreign currency exchange rate of 3.3002 and 3.4411 Brazilian reais to 1 US dollar, which represents the derived exchange rate for the fiscal quarter and fiscal year ended January 1, 2017, respectively, calculated as explained above. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP. Results on a constant currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP. | ||||||||||
