NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS |
Business
Jamba, Inc. consummated its initial public offering in July 2005. On March 10, 2006, Jamba, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Jamba Juice Company (the “Merger Agreement”). On November 29, 2006 (the “Merger Date”), Jamba, Inc. consummated the merger with Jamba Juice Company (the “Merger”) whereby Jamba Juice Company, which first began operations in 1990, became its wholly owned subsidiary.

2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of presentation and consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Jamba, Inc. have been prepared pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for Form 10-Q. The December 29, 2015 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was derived from the audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of the 13-week or 26-week periods ended June 28, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire fiscal year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its direct or indirect subsidiary, Jamba Juice Company. The accounts of Jamba Juice Southern California, LLC (“JJSC”) are included through April 28, 2015, when the Company sold its 88% interest in JJSC to the holder of JJSC’s noncontrolling interest. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications were made to the Company’s prior financial statements to conform to current year presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2015.
6 |
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events, excluding changes resulting from investments from owners and distributions to owners. The Company currently has no components of comprehensive income other than net income, therefore no separate statement of comprehensive income is presented.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (loss) per share is computed in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares and potentially dilutive securities, which includes preferred stock outstanding, outstanding warrants and outstanding options and restricted stock awards granted under the Company’s stock option plans.
Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents totaling 2.0 million and 1.9 million were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 28, 2016, respectively. Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents totaling 2.3 million and 1.9 million were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 30, 2015, respectively.
Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued amended guidance on revenue from contracts with customers which amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09 establishes principles for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected consideration received in exchange for those goods or services. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 (including interim reporting periods within those periods). Early adoption is permitted to the original effective date of the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2016 (including interim reporting periods within those periods). The amendment guidance may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented with the option to apply practical expedients or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. The Company is currently assessing the impact this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosure.
7 |
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This update provides guidance on management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related disclosures. This guidance will be effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosure.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. ASU 2015-11 applies to inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) or average cost method and requires measurement of that inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning fiscal year 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. ASU 2016-01 addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The guidance will be effective for the Company beginning fiscal year 2018. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a significant impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosure.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which will require lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date. The guidance will be effective for the Company beginning fiscal year 2019, with early adoption permitted. The new standard is required to be applied with a modified retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented with various optional practical expedients. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosure.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04, Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products. The new guidance creates an exception under ASC 405-20, Liabilities-Extinguishments of Liabilities, to derecognize financial liabilities related to certain prepaid stored-value products using a revenue-like breakage model. The guidance will be effective for the Company beginning fiscal year 2018, with early adoption permitted. This guidance can be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company is currently assessing what impact, if any, the adoption of this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosure.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The updated guidance changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payment awards to employees, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The guidance will be effective for the Company beginning fiscal year 2017, with early application permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosure.
3. | ASSETS HELD FOR SALE |
In November 2014, the Company announced plans to transition to an asset light model through the refranchising of Company stores. In connection with that planned transition, 99 Company Stores and one unopened company store met the criteria as assets held for sale as of December 30, 2014. During fiscal 2015, an additional 125 stores met the criteria to be classified as assets held for sale increasing the total to 224 stores of which 176 stores were refranchised from assets held for sale. The 48 remaining stores were reclassified out of assets held for sale back to their original asset group based on management’s decision to retain the stores. As of June 28, 2016 and December 29, 2015 there are no stores in assets held for sale and $0 is reflected as held for sale in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Gain or loss on the disposal of assets held for sale is recorded within gain on disposal of assets in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company recognized a loss on disposal of assets of $0.2 million and $0.3 million during the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 28, 2016, respectively.
The Company sold 49 stores and 53 stores for a total price of $11.3 million and $13.7 million in the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 30, 2015, respectively. The Company recorded a gain of $4.5 million and $5.3 million from the disposal of assets held for sale primarily relating to refranchising during the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 30, 2015, respectively.
8 |
4. | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT |
Financial Assets and Liabilities
The following instruments are not measured at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets but require disclosure of their fair values: cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, notes receivable and accounts payable. The estimated fair value of such instruments, excluding notes receivable, approximates their carrying value as reported on the consolidated balance sheets due to the short-term nature. The estimated fair value of notes receivable approximates its carrying value due to the interest rates aligning with market rates. The fair value of such financial instruments is determined using the income approach based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. The fair value of these instruments would be categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, with the exception of cash and cash equivalents, which would be categorized as Level 1.
Non-financial Assets and Liabilities
The Company’s non-financial assets and liabilities primarily consist of long-lived assets, trademarks and other intangibles, and are reported at carrying value. They are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment when facts and circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. Trademarks and other intangibles are evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.
As a result of the quarterly impairment reviews, the Company recognized total losses of $0.1 million and $0.3 million were recognized for the 26-week periods ended June 28, 2016 and June 30, 2015, respectively, included in impairment of long-lived assets. The losses in fiscal year 2016 relate to impairment of fixed assets of an individual store.
5. | CREDIT AGREEMENT |
On February 14, 2012, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Lender”) which, as amended on November 1, 2012, July 22, 2013, November 4, 2013, December 30, 2014, and December 29, 2015 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), makes available to the Company a revolving line of credit in the amount of $10.0 million. The outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement bears interest at a LIBOR Market Index Rate based upon the rate for one month U.S. dollar deposits, plus 2.50% per annum. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company is required to either maintain minimum cash or consolidated EBITDA levels, minimum levels of tangible net worth and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. The credit facility is subject to customary affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations on the Company with respect to liens, indebtedness, guaranties, investments, distributions, mergers and acquisitions and dispositions of assets. The credit facility is evidenced by a revolving note made by the Company in favor of the Lender, is guaranteed by the Company and is secured by substantially all of its assets including the assets of its subsidiaries and a pledge of stock of its subsidiaries. In addition, the Credit Agreement replaced restricted cash requirements established in prior periods, as the line of credit also collateralizes the Company’s outstanding letters of credit of $0.4 million as of June 28, 2016.
During the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016, there were no borrowings under the Credit Agreement. To acquire the credit facility, the Company incurred upfront fees which are being amortized over the term of the Credit Agreement. As of June 28, 2016 and December 29, 2015, the unamortized commitment fee amount was not material. As of June 28, 2016, the Company was not in compliance with all the financial covenants to the Credit Agreement, which will restrict any future borrowings. Subsequent to the quarter end, the Credit Agreement expired on July 22, 2016, with no amounts drawn on the credit facility since its inception. After the expiration of the Credit Agreement, the Company subsequently collateralized the existing letters of credit with a restricted cash collateral account.

6. | SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION |
On May 17, 2016, at its 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the Company’s stockholders, upon the recommendation of the Board of Directors, approved an additional 900,000 shares of common stock to be offered or issued under the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
Key Overall Strategies
During the second quarter we announced the planned relocation of the Jamba Support Center from Emeryville, California to Frisco, Texas, currently scheduled to occur at the end of the fiscal year. The move will provide several advantages to Jamba, including lower overhead costs, access to a strong pool of restaurant talent, and a more central location to our franchisees as we continue to build markets in the eastern U.S.. The move and recent transition in leadership provide a clear opportunity to reset the organization with unwavering focus on our five key strategies:
· | Build an Iconic Brand |
· | Establish a Customer and Store-Centric Operating Environment |
· | Drive Sales and Transactions through Innovation |
· | Improve Store Profitability through Simplification |
· | Expand Our Global Footprint |
13 |
2016 Second Quarter Financial Summary
· | Total revenue for the quarter decreased 60.2% to $21.5 million from $54.1 million for the prior year, primarily due to the reduction in the number of Company Stores as part of the Company’s refranchising strategy. |
· | Company Store comparable sales increased 5.7% for the quarter and Franchise Store comparable sales increased 4.0% for the quarter compared to the prior year. System-wide comparable sales (includes both Company and Franchise Stores) increased 4.2% for the quarter. System-wide and Franchise Store comparable store sales are non-GAAP financial measures and represent the change in year-over-year sales, for stores opened for at least one full fiscal year. |
· | Net (loss) income attributable to Jamba, Inc. was $(2.5) million compared to $6.3 million for the prior year primarily due to expenses related to non-recurring transition costs in 2016. Included in the 2015 results were $4.5 million related to gains recognized from refranchising. |
· | General and administrative expenses for the 13-weeks ended June 28, 2016 increased 11.8% to $9.4 million compared with $8.4 million for the prior year period, primarily due to expenses related to non-recurring transition costs in 2016 of $3.8 million. |
· | Total Company-owned stores at the end of the second quarter of 2016 was 68, compared to 206 at the end of the second quarter of 2015. |

Fiscal 2016 Second Quarter Business Highlights
Build an Iconic Brand
During the second quarter, our brand-building efforts included the introduction of innovative smoothie, juice and bowl options that have been well received by our guests. Limited time only products featuring refreshing tropical flavors and seasonal fruit are two of the platforms we leveraged in order to drive customers into our stores. We also amplified our local marketing efforts, focusing on both established and emerging markets with strong activation with local schools, businesses and community groups. We improved our consumer messaging through our “Make it Real” campaign that reminds and educates guests that our products are hand-crafted and made from real fruits, vegetables, and other good stuff. Also in the second quarter, we gave consumers more reasons to celebrate Cinco de Mayo and the Summer Solstice with promotional offers designed to drive traffic.
We continued to maintain our heritage as a strong supporter of the communities we serve. Through our corporate social responsibility initiatives under the banner of “Team Up For a Healthy Whirl’d”, we increased our focus in local markets on fundraising, hiring, local sponsorships and supporting youth sports. In partnership with DonorsChoose.org, we provided funding for school athletic equipment in several Jamba markets, and we ran our annual garden grant program through our association with KidsGardening.
To further enhance the customer experience in our stores, we expanded programs with strategic partners in the digital and social media space, including Spendgo, Fishbowl, Google, and others. Membership in our Jamba Insider Rewards (“JIR”) program continues to add to the more than three million existing loyalty members.
Establish a Customer and Store-Centric Operating Environment
During the second quarter, we continued our transition toward becoming a top tier franchisor by improving our support to our stores and to our customers. During our 2016 Franchise Leadership Conference held in March, we emphasized that focus with all of our partners and team members and reinforce our commitment to a store-centric operating philosophy. In addition to our great-tasting products, we have an ongoing mission to provide customers with an enhanced in-store experience. Also, in the second quarter, we successfully executed an update to the Jamba Juice mobile application (“app”) that was launched in the second half of 2015. Among the new options, Jamba guests now have access to regionalized menus and can customize smoothies, juices and bowls as part of their enhanced order ahead experience.

Driving Sales and Transactions through Innovation
Our commitment to the ongoing development of better-for-you beverage and food options for consumers continues to drive traffic into our stores with the introduction in the second quarter of our new, refreshing “Island Getaway Smoothies”, Gotta Guava™ Smoothie and tropical Sunburst™ Smoothie. We also introduced our line of Protein Smoothies in our California stores to satisfy customers’ needs for replenishment after workouts and for meal replacements and Strawberry Fruit Refresher juice for healthy summer refreshment. Protein Smoothies will launch in all remaining stores in August.
Jamba continues to be the number one smoothie brand in the country. In addition, our made-to-order, fresh fruit and vegetable juice platform is now available in over 550 locations, making Jamba the leading retailer of fresh-squeezed, made-to-order juices. This platform is comprised of made-to-order juices and smoothies blended with fresh, whole fruits and vegetables like kale, apples, cucumbers, ginger and chia seeds. We have also expanded our line of made-to-order bowls to include a Pitaya Energy offering, which are now available in stores nationwide. Jamba Energy Bowls, served in convenient portable servings, are a nutritious blend of real, whole fruit and soymilk or fresh Greek yogurt, topped with an assortment of dry toppings and fresh fruits.
Our product development will continue to be guided by our commitment to providing consumers with fresh, nutritional ingredients, great-tasting beverages and food, at affordable prices. We are confident that our pipeline of new product remains strong for the remainder of 2016 and beyond. We expect our new products will continue to drive new and existing customers into our stores and will help franchise profitability through increased transactions. Our on-trend, better-for-you positioning continues to make Jamba a leading healthy lifestyle brand.
Improve Store Profitability through Simplification
With the completion of our move to a franchise business model, we are highly focused on improving franchisee profitability and 4-wall store margins. During the second quarter of 2016, we continued to operationalize several key initiatives that were launched in 2015, which make a significant positive impact on costs of goods and labor. Continuous improvements in speed of service are helping to offset minimum wage increases to help manage labor costs and improve customer satisfaction. Our supply chain optimization efforts have significantly aided in offsetting the inflationary impact of commodity price increases.
In addition, during the second quarter of 2016, we continued with the rollout of our new and improved BlendTec blenders. The new blender technology improves the quality of our finished products, improves the speed of service and reduces the noise levels within our stores. This rollout will continue across the system for the balance of 2016.
Expand Our Global Footprint
As of June 28, 2016, there were 885 Jamba Juice® stores globally, represented by 68 Company Stores and 751 Franchise Stores, of which 43 were Jamba Juice Express™ in the United States, and 66 International Stores. The system is comprised of approximately 92% Franchise and International Store locations and 8% Company Store locations. As of June 28, 2016, we had approximately 2,000 JambaGO® units in operation nationwide.
In July 2016 we celebrated the grand opening of the Jamba Juice Innovation Bar at our newly remodeled Pasadena, CA location. The one-of-a-kind concept store will feature innovative beverage and food offerings unique to the space and serve as a learning lab where we can create and test new beverage and food concepts.
A primary growth driver of our enterprise will be global new unit development. During the quarter, we opened 10 U.S. locations, including one co-branded pilot location with Bruegger’s and one Jamba Juice Express™ unit. At the end of the second quarter of 2016, we had international master development agreements with partners in Indonesia, Thailand, South Korea, the Philippines, Mexico and the countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates). During the second quarter, we opened two new locations in the U.A.E. and South Korea. We expect that our new international franchisees in Indonesia and Thailand will open stores before the end of fiscal 2016.
15 |
In July 2016 we entered into a development agreement with an industry franchising leader to develop 20 locations in the greater Detroit market. The agreement includes an accelerated growth plan over the first three years of the eight year agreement.
Our shift to an asset-light business model means the Jamba system is now comprised of greater than 90% franchise-locations, up from 70% in 2014 following the completion of our refranchising initiatives in 2015. This transition in our core business model will continue to facilitate a more streamlined cost structure enabling faster execution and an enhanced focus on our franchisees and our growth initiatives.
Support Center Relocation
On May 4, 2016, we announced the relocation of our corporate headquarters from Emeryville, California to Frisco, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. We expect to complete the relocation in the next six months. The move is intended to, among other things, reduce costs, attract and retain talent and provide a more central location for our market expansion plans. In connection with this relocation, we expect to incur charges of approximately $7.8 million, associated with personnel relocation, employee attrition, retention, severance and replacement, office relocation and other costs. These charges are expected to be incurred from the second quarter of fiscal year 2016 through the first quarter of 2017.
On July 19, 2016, we announced the hiring of our Chief Marketing Officer, Rachel Phillips-Luther who will start in August 2016. With the hire of Rachel Phillips-Luther, our Executive Team will be fully in place for our relocation to Frisco, Texas.

Total revenue is comprised of revenue from Company Stores, royalties and fees from Franchise Stores in the U.S. and from International Stores, income from JambaGO® locations, license income from sales of Jamba-branded CPG products and direct sales of CPG products. Total revenue for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016 was $21.5 million, a decrease of $32.6 million, or 60.2%, compared to $54.1 million for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in total revenue was primarily due to a decrease in Company Stores for the quarter compared to the prior year. For the quarter ended June 28, 2016 we had 68 Company Stores compared to 206 in the prior year.
Company Store revenue
Company Store revenue for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016 was $13.9 million, a decrease of $34.5 million or 71.3%, compared to Company Store revenue of $48.4 million for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in Company Store revenue was primarily due to a decrease in the number of Company Stores primarily as a result of our refranchising activities, partially offset by an increase in Company Store comparable sales as illustrated by the following table:

Franchise and other revenue was $7.7 million, an increase of $1.9 million or 33.0% for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016 compared to $5.8 million for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to the increase in royalties associated with the net increase in the number of Franchise and International Stores in addition to the Franchise Store comparable store sales increase of 4.0%.
The aggregate number of Franchise and International Stores as of June 28, 2016 and June 30, 2015 was 817 and 669, respectively.
Cost of Sales

The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of Company Store revenue was primarily due to higher product mix shift related to the expanded bowl menu (approximately 0.9%) offset by a decrease related to price increases taken in 2015 (0.7%). Cost of sales for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016 was $3.3 million, a decrease of $8.2 million, or 71.1%, compared to $11.5 million for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015, primarily related to the lower Company Store base as a result of refranchising initiatives.

Labor
Labor costs are comprised of store management salaries and bonuses, hourly team member payroll, training costs and other associated fringe benefits. As a percentage of Company Store revenue, labor costs were 33.6% for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016 compared to 30.8% for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in California wage rate effective January 1, 2016 (approximately 1.7%) along with a shift in the store portfolio mix, resulting from refranchising activities, to Chicago stores with a higher labor percentage driven by lower sales volume (approximately 0.5%), and higher compensation incentive payout and fringe benefits (approximately 1.9%). This increase was partially offset by improved efficiencies in California stores, primarily driven by leverage on increased same-store sales (approximately 1.3%). Labor costs for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016 were $4.7 million, a decrease of $10.2 million, or 68.6%, compared to $14.9 million for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015, which is primarily due to the decrease in number of Company Stores as a result of our refranchising activities.
Occupancy
Occupancy costs include both fixed and variable portions of rent, common area maintenance charges, property taxes, licenses and property insurance for all Company Store locations. As a percentage of Company Store revenue, occupancy costs increased to 13.7% for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016, compared to 12.7% for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015. The increase in occupancy costs as a percentage of Company Store revenue was primarily due to the refranchising of Company Stores that carried a lower rent as a percentage of Company Store revenue. Occupancy costs for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016 were $1.9 million, a decrease of $4.2 million, or 69.0%, compared to $6.1 million for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015, which is primarily due to the decrease in number of Company Stores as a result of our refranchising activities.
Store Operating
Store operating expenses consist primarily of various store-level costs such as utilities, marketing, repairs and maintenance, credit card fees and other store operating expenses. As a percentage of Company Store revenue, total store operating expenses decreased to 16.4% for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016, compared to 16.7% for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in total store operating expenses as a percentage of Company Store revenue was primarily due to lower local store marketing costs as a result of timing differences (approximately 0.5%), lower donations (approximately 0.3%) and lower utilities (approximately 0.2%) partially offset by increased credit card usage and bank charges (approximately 0.7%). Store operating expenses for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016 were $2.3 million, a decrease of $5.8 million or 71.8%, compared to $8.1 million for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expenses include the depreciation of fixed assets and the amortization of intangible assets. As a percentage of total revenue, depreciation and amortization increased to 7.8% for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016, compared to 2.5% for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015. The increase in depreciation and amortization as a percentage of total revenue was primarily due to the discontinuation of depreciation relating to stores in assets held for sale prior to their refranchising in the prior year and an increase in depreciation relating to capitalized information technology corporate programs and JambaGO® equipment in the current year. Depreciation and amortization for the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016 was $1.7 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 24.6%, compared to $1.3 million for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015.
General and Administrative
General and administrative (G&A) expenses include costs associated with our corporate headquarters (in Emeryville, CA & Frisco, TX), field supervision, performance related incentives, outside and contract services, accounting and legal fees, travel and travel-related expenses, share-based compensation and other G&A expenses.

The increase in total G&A expenses was primarily due to transition costs relating to the relocation of the headquarters to Frisco, Texas. Payroll & payroll related expenses increased due to severance and retention bonuses (approximately $1.1 million) and professional fees associated with litigation and temporary help (approximately $0.5 million) offset by a decrease in share-based compensation expense (approximately $0.6 million).

The refranchising initiative was completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015.
Store Pre-Opening
For the 13-week period ended June 28, 2016, store pre-opening expense was $0.3 million compared to $0.2 million for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2015, an increase of approximately $0.2 million. The increase was primarily due to the rent associated with a store closed for remodeling (approximately $0.2 million).
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The decrease in total revenue was primarily due to a decrease in Company Stores for the year compared to the prior year. As of June 28, 2016 we had 68 Company Stores compared to 206 in the prior year.
Company Store revenue
Company Store revenue for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2016 was $25.8 million, a decrease of $70.3 million or 73.1%, compared to Company Store revenue of $96.1 million for the 26-week period ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in Company Store revenue was primarily due to a decrease in the number of Company Stores primarily as a result of our refranchising activities, partially offset by an increase in Company Store comparable sales as illustrated by the following table:

As of June 28, 2016, 98.5% of our Company Stores had been open for at least one full year.
Franchise and other revenue
Franchise and other revenue was $14.5 million, an increase of $3.9 million or 37.2% for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2016 compared to $10.5 million for the 26-week period ended June 30, 2015.

The decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of Company Store revenue was primarily due to retail price increase (approximately 0.8%) combined with lower discounting (approximately 0.1%), partially offset by higher product mix shift related to the expanded bowl offerings (approximately 0.4%). Cost of sales for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2016 was $6.3 million, a decrease of $17.6 million, or 73.7%, compared to $23.9 million for the 26-week period ended June 30, 2015, primarily related to the lower Company Store base as a result of refranchising initiatives.

Labor
Labor costs are comprised of store management salaries and bonuses, hourly team member payroll, training costs and other associated fringe benefits. As a percentage of Company Store revenue, labor costs were 34.2% for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2016 compared to 32.2% for the 26-week period ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in California wage rate effective January 1, 2016 (approximately 1.5%) along with a shift in the store portfolio mix, resulting from refranchising activities, to Chicago stores with a higher labor percentage driven by lower sales volume (approximately 0.5%), and higher compensation incentive payout and fringe benefits (approximately 0.9%). This increase was partially offset by improved efficiencies in California stores, primarily driven by leverage on increased same-store sales (approximately 0.8%). Labor costs for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2016 were $8.8 million, a decrease of $22.1 million, or 71.5%, compared to $31.0 million for the 26-week period ended June 30, 2015, which is primarily due to the decrease in number of Company Stores as a result of our refranchising activities.

KEY FINANCIAL METRICS AND NON-GAAP MEASURES
We review and discuss our operations based on both financial and non-financial metrics. Among the key financial metrics upon which management focuses is reviewing our performance based on our consolidated GAAP results, including Company Store comparable sales. We also use certain supplemental, non-GAAP financial metrics in evaluating financial results, including Franchise Store comparable sales and system-wide comparable sales.
Company Store comparable sales represents the change in year-over-year sales for all Company Stores opened for at least one full year. Franchise Store comparable sales, a non-GAAP financial measure, represents the change in year-over-year sales for all Franchise Stores opened for at least one full year, as reported by franchisees and excludes International Stores. System-wide comparable store sales, a non-GAAP financial measure, represents the change in year-over-year sales for all Company and Franchise Stores opened for at least one full year and is based on sales by both company-owned and domestic franchise-operated stores, as reported by franchisees, which are in the store base. System-wide comparable store sales do not include International Stores, JambaGO® units and Jamba Juice Express™. Comparable store sales exclude closed locations.
We review the increase or decrease in Company Store comparable sales, Franchise Store comparable sales and system-wide comparable sales compared with the same period in the prior year to assess business trends and make certain business decisions. We believe that Franchise Store comparable sales and system-wide comparable sales data, non-GAAP financial measures, are useful in assessing the overall performance of the Jamba brand and, ultimately, the performance of the Company.
The following table sets forth operating data that do not otherwise appear in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of, and for, the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 28, 2016 and the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 30, 2015:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash Flows Summary
The following table summarizes our cash flows for the 26-week periods ended June 28, 2016 and June 30, 2015 (in thousands):
26-Week Period Ended | ||||||||
June 28, 2016 | June 30, 2015 | |||||||
Net cash used in operating activities | $ | (2,370 | ) | $ | (5,244 | ) | ||
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities | (2,018 | ) | 10,089 | |||||
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities | 431 | (8,677 | ) | |||||
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents | $ | (3,957 | ) | $ | (3,832 | ) |
Liquidity
As of June 28, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $15.8 million compared to $19.7 million as of December 29, 2015. As of June 28, 2016 and December 29, 2015, we had no short term or long term debt. Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operating activities.
We expect that our cash on hand and future cash flows provided by operating activities and our refranchising initiative will be sufficient to fund our working capital and general corporate needs and the non-discretionary capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. Our primary liquidity and capital requirements are for working capital and general corporate needs and the planned fiscal 2016 capital expenditures of $4 to $5 million. The use of cash to fund discretionary capital expenditures will be based on the need to conserve our capital. Additionally, we expect to incur approximately $7.8 million in personnel relocation, employee attrition, retention, severance and replacement, office relocation and other costs related to our relocation of our corporate headquarters, and approximately $2.0 million in capital costs related to the buildout of our corporate headquarters and data center migration.
On July 22, 2016, the Company’s Credit Facility with Wells Fargo expired. Since the inception of the line of credit, the Company did not borrow on the facility and utilized it primarily for collateral against letters of credit. The existing letters of credit balance of $0.4 million will be collateralized by cash. The Company is currently evaluating replacement alternatives to the Revolver Credit Facility with other banks.

The adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including the macroeconomic environment, the operating performance of our Company Stores, the successful expansion of our franchise and licensing programs and the successful rollout and consumer acceptance of our new beverage and food initiatives. Given these factors, our foremost priorities for the near term continue to be preserving and generating cash sufficient to fund our liquidity needs.
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $2.4 million for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2016, compared to $5.2 million for the 26-week period ended June 30, 2015, reflecting a net decrease in cash flows used in operating activities of $2.9 million. This decrease in cash used in operating activities was primarily due to a net decrease in cash used in operating assets and liabilities (approximately $7.4 million), partially offset by a net increase in net loss after adjustment for noncash items (approximately $4.6 million).
The amount of cash provided by our operating activities during any particular fiscal year is highly subject to variations in the seasons. The first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year encompass the winter and holiday seasons when we traditionally generate our lowest revenue, and our second and third quarters of the fiscal year encompass the warmer seasons where a significant portion of our revenue and cash flows are realized. For more information on seasonality, refer to the section below entitled “Seasonality and Quarterly Results.” We also expect to have increased expenditures during the first part of the current fiscal year as we invest in product development and domestic expansion with the goal to have new products released and new stores open by mid-year to take advantage of the busier summer months.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $2.0 million for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2016, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $10.1 million for the 26-week period ended June 30, 2015. The $12.1 million change in net cash used in investing activities during the 26-week period ended June 28, 2016 was primarily due to a decrease in proceeds from disposal of fixed assets (approximately $12.2 million) due to refranchising activity that occurred in the first half of fiscal year 2015.
In fiscal 2016, we expect capital expenditures to be approximately $4 to $5 million depending on our liquidity needs, which includes store refreshes and redesigns to facilitate fresh-squeezed juice and whole food nutrition offerings in the Chicago market, investing in improvements to our technology infrastructure as well as maintenance capital.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.4 million for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2016, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $8.7 million for the 26-week period ended June 30, 2015. The $9.1 million change in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to the repurchase of the shares of the Company's common stock (approximately $9.8 million) under the stock repurchase plan approved by our Board of Directors in 2014 that occurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, partially offset by a decrease in receipts from our stock issuance plans, including from the exercise of stock options (approximately $0.8 million).
Contractual Obligations
There have been no significant changes to our contractual obligations table as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2015.
COMMODITY PRICES, AVAILABILITY AND GENERAL RISK CONDITIONS
We contract for significant amounts of individually quick frozen fruit, fruit concentrate and dairy products to support the needs of both our Company Stores and Franchise Stores. The price and availability of these commodities directly impact our results of operations and can be expected to impact our future results of operations.

SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY RESULTS
Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations. We expect to realize significant portions of our revenue during the second and third quarters of the fiscal year, which align with the warmer summer season. In addition, quarterly results are affected by the timing of the opening of new stores and weather conditions. However, geographic diversification of our store locations may conceal or diminish the financial statement impact of such seasonal influences. Because of the seasonality of our business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year or any subsequent quarter.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to adopt accounting policies and make significant judgments and estimates to develop amounts reflected and disclosed in the financial statements. In many cases, there are alternative policies or estimation techniques that could be used. We maintain a process to review the application of our accounting policies and to evaluate the appropriateness of the many estimates that we are required to make in order to prepare the financial statements. However, even under optimal circumstances, estimates routinely require adjustment based on changing circumstances and the receipt of new or better information. There have been no significant changes to the policies and estimates as discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2015.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Recent Accounting Pronouncements section of Note 2 to our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information about new accounting standards.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rates
We do not enter into market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes. We are exposed to financial market risks due primarily to changes in interest rates in our interest bearing accounts. We do not believe a change in interest rates will materially affect our financial position or results of operations. As of December 29, 2015 a one percent change of the interest rate would result in an annual change in the results of operations of approximately $0.2 million.
Commodities Prices
We are exposed to the impact of commodity and utility price fluctuations related to unpredictable factors such as weather and various market conditions over which we do not have control. We purchase significant amounts of produce and dairy products to support the needs of our Company Stores. The price and availability of these commodities directly impact the results of operations and can be expected to impact the future results of operations.
We purchase fruit based on short-term seasonal pricing agreements. These short-term agreements generally set the price of procured frozen fruit and 100% pure fruit concentrates for less than one year based on estimated annual requirements. We purchase fresh produce based on annual pricing agreements. In order to mitigate the effects of price changes in any one commodity on our cost structure, we contract with multiple suppliers both domestically and internationally. These agreements typically set the price for some or all of our estimated annual fruit and fresh produce requirements, protecting us from short-term volatility. Nevertheless, these agreements typically contain a force majeure clause, which, if utilized (such as hurricanes in 2004 that destroyed the Florida orange crop and more recently with the 2007 freeze that affected California citrus), may subject us to significant price increases.
Our pricing philosophy is not to attempt to change consumer prices with every move up or down of the commodity market, but to take a longer term view of managing margins and the value perception of our products in the eyes of our customers. Our objective is to maximize our revenue through increased customer traffic.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have established and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company and our subsidiaries required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only a reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management was necessarily required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of June 28, 2016.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
We are party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. Based on the information currently available, the Company is not currently a party to any legal proceeding that management believes would have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Our risk factors are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2015 and have not materially changed except for the following additional risk factor:
The relocation of our corporate headquarters and data center could adversely affect our operations, operating results and financial condition, as we may experience disruptions to our business and incur additional costs in connection with the relocation.
We announced on May 4, 2016, the relocation of our corporate headquarters and data center from Emeryville, California to Frisco, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. The process of moving our headquarters is inherently complex and not part of our day-to-day operations, and includes the relocation of our data center, which contains a significant portion of our core business information and applications. The relocation process could cause significant disruption to our operations and cause the temporary diversion of management resources, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, operating results and financial condition. The need to replace Company personnel who do not relocate, train new employees and transition Company operating knowledge may cause disruptions in our business. While we have implemented a transition plan to provide for the move of our corporate operations and data center, including relocation benefits for employees who may be transferring, and severance and retention benefits for employees who will not be continuing with the Company after the move, we may encounter difficulties retaining employees who elect to transfer and attracting new talent in the Dallas area to replace our employees who are unwilling to relocate, and we may also experience difficulties in retaining employees who will remain in Emeryville, California during the transition period and who we are relying on to facilitate the transition of the Company operating knowledge. In addition, we may incur additional costs for duplication in staff as we effect the transition. Furthermore, we may experience disruption in accessibility to our data as we migrate our data center, and any disruption could have a material adverse effect on our operations, operating knowledge and financial condition. Even though we are taking the necessary precautions, we can give no assurance that the relocation will be completed as planned or within the expected timeframe. In addition, the relocation may involve significant additional costs to us and the expected benefits of the move may not be fully realized due to associated disruption to our operations and personnel.
