5. | Dividends |
During the two fiscal quarters of 2014, the Company paid approximately $25.1 million of common stock dividends. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2014, the Companys Board of Directors declared a $0.25 per share quarterly dividend on its outstanding common stock. The Company had approximately $14.4 million accrued for common stock dividends at June 15, 2014.
On July 16, 2014, the Companys Board of Directors declared a $0.25 per share quarterly dividend on its outstanding common stock for shareholders of record as of September 15, 2014 to be paid on September 30, 2014.
6. | Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss |
In 2013, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which requires an entity to present either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes to the financial statements, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by the respective line items of net income.
The approximately $2.4 million of accumulated other comprehensive loss at June 15, 2014 and the approximately $2.0 million of accumulated other comprehensive loss at December 29, 2013 represent currency translation adjustments, net of tax. There were no reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 or the two fiscal quarters of 2013.
7. | Open Market Share Repurchase Program |
During the second quarter of 2014, the Company repurchased and retired 687,750 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $49.9 million, and during the two fiscal quarters of 2014, the Company repurchased and retired 909,231 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $65.0 million. As of June 15, 2014, the Company had approximately $150.1 million remaining for future share repurchases under its Board of Directors approved $200.0 million open market share repurchase program. Subsequent to the second quarter of 2014 and through July 15, 2014, the Company repurchased and retired an additional 5,000 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $0.4 million.
During the second quarter and two fiscal quarters of 2013, the Company repurchased and retired 655,248 and 1,018,147 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $38.0 million and $56.1 million, respectively, under the Companys open market share repurchase program.
8. | Fair Value Measurements |
Fair value measurements enable the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The Company classifies and discloses assets and liabilities carried at fair value in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
9
The fair values of the Companys cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The following tables summarize the carrying amounts and fair values of certain assets at June 15, 2014 and December 29, 2013:

At June 15, 2014, the Company estimates that the $1.522 billion in principal amount of outstanding fixed rate notes had a fair value of approximately $1.629 billion, and at December 29, 2013 the $1.534 billion in principal amount of outstanding fixed rate notes had a fair value of approximately $1.643 billion. The fixed rate notes are classified as a Level 2 measurement, as the Company estimated the fair value amount by using available market information. The Company obtained broker quotes from two separate brokerage firms that are knowledgeable about the Companys fixed rate notes and, at times, trade these notes. Further, the Company performs its own internal analysis based on the information it gathers from public markets, including information on notes that are similar to that of the Company. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the fair value estimates presented here are not necessarily indicative of the amount that the Company or the debtholders could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value.
9. | Sale of Company-Owned Stores |
During the first quarter of 2014, the Company sold 14 Company-owned stores to a franchisee. In connection with the sale of these 14 stores, the Company recorded a $1.7 million pre-tax gain on the sale of the related assets, which was net of a $0.5 million reduction in goodwill. The gain was recorded in general and administrative expense in the Companys condensed consolidated statements of income. This transaction will not have a material ongoing impact on the Companys consolidated financial results.
As a result of the capital gain recognized in connection with the sale of the 14 Company-owned stores, the Company also released $0.3 million of a deferred tax valuation allowance.

Overview
We are the number one pizza delivery company in the United States based on reported consumer spending, and the second largest pizza company in the world based on number of units. We operate through a substantially franchised network of stores, located in all 50 states and in more than 70 international markets, as well as Company-owned stores, all of which are in the United States. In addition, we operate regional dough manufacturing and supply chain centers in the United States and Canada.
Our financial results are driven largely by retail sales at our franchise and Company-owned stores. Changes in retail sales are driven by changes in same store sales and store counts. We monitor both of these metrics very closely, as they directly impact our revenues and profits, and strive to consistently increase both metrics. Retail sales drive royalty payments from franchisees as well as Company-owned store and supply chain revenues. Retail sales are primarily impacted by the strength of the Dominos Pizza® brand, the results of our marketing, the effectiveness of our digital platforms and technology, our ability to execute our store operating model, the overall global economic environment and the success of our business strategies.

During the second quarter and two fiscal quarters of 2014, we experienced strong domestic same store sales increases, driven by our continued consumer offerings of high quality food at value pricing with effective marketing. Our innovative digital platforms and technology also contributed to those increases, as we believe that our platforms and technology provide us with a competitive advantage. Additionally, we produced earnings growth during the second quarter despite commodity and foreign currency exchange rate pressures. Internationally, we continued to have strong same store sales in both the second quarter and two fiscal quarters of 2014. International store growth continued to be strong during the second quarter, as we opened a net 122 stores, bringing the year-to-date total to a net 219 stores opened. We believe that our strong global brand and the factors described above drove our results for the second quarter and two fiscal quarters of 2014, and we intend to further grow our business by continuing to focus on operational excellence, effective marketing, industry-leading technology platforms and delivering high quality food and service to our customers.

Global retail sales, which are total retail sales at franchise and Company-owned stores worldwide, increased 11.5% in the second quarter of 2014, and 10.3% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were driven primarily by domestic and international same store sales growth, as well as an increase in our worldwide store counts during the trailing four quarters. This was offset in part by the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rates. Domestic same store sales growth reflected the sustained positive sales trends and the continued success of our products and marketing. International same store sales growth reflected continued strong performance.
Revenues increased $36.5 million, up 8.8% in the second quarter of 2014, and $72.7 million, up 8.7% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 due primarily to higher domestic supply chain revenues attributable to higher commodity prices as well as increased volumes. Higher international and domestic franchise revenues also contributed to the increases in revenues as a result of higher same store sales and store count growth. These increases were offset in part by the negative impact on international revenues of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These changes in revenues are described in more detail below.
Income from operations increased $7.6 million, up 10.2% in the second quarter of 2014, and $16.1 million, up 10.8% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were driven primarily by higher royalty revenues from both domestic and international franchise stores and higher domestic supply chain profits driven primarily by higher volumes. These increases were offset in part by the negative impact of the changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Additionally, the two fiscal quarters of 2014 benefited from a $1.7 million pre-tax gain on the sale of 14 Company-owned stores.
Net income increased $5.2 million, up 15.6% in the second quarter of 2014, and $11.2 million, up 16.6% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were driven by domestic and international same store sales growth, international store count growth and higher domestic supply chain profits. These increases were offset in part by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Additionally, the two fiscal quarters of 2014 benefitted from a $1.4 million positive impact from the sale of 14 Company-owned stores and the associated reversal of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance during the first quarter of 2014.

Revenues primarily consist of retail sales from our Company-owned stores, royalties from our domestic and international franchise stores and sales of food, equipment and supplies from our supply chain centers to substantially all of our domestic franchise stores and certain international franchise stores. Company-owned store and franchise store revenues may vary significantly from period to period due to changes in store count mix, while supply chain revenues may vary significantly as a result of fluctuations in commodity prices, primarily cheese and meats.

Domestic stores revenues increased $4.2 million, up 3.3% in the second quarter of 2014, and $7.6 million, up 2.9% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were due primarily to royalty revenues earned on higher franchise same store sales and higher domestic Company-owned same store sales. These changes in domestic stores revenues are more fully described below.
12
Domestic Company-Owned Stores Revenues
Revenues from domestic Company-owned store operations increased $0.3 million, up 0.4% in the second quarter of 2014, and $1.7 million, up 1.0% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were due primarily to higher same store sales during the second quarter and two fiscal quarters of 2014, offset in part by the sale of 14 company-owned stores to a franchisee in the first quarter of 2014. Domestic Company-owned same store sales increased 3.5% in the second quarter of 2014, and 2.5% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. This compared to an increase of 5.7% in the second quarter of 2013, and 5.3% in the two fiscal quarters of 2013.
Domestic Franchise Revenues
Revenues from domestic franchise operations increased $3.8 million, up 8.0% in the second quarter of 2014, and $6.0 million, up 6.0% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were due primarily to higher domestic franchise same store sales, and to a lesser extent, an increase in the average number of domestic franchise stores open during 2014. Domestic franchise same store sales increased 5.5% in the second quarter of 2014, and 5.4% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. This compared to an increase of 6.8% in the second quarter of 2013, and 6.6% in the two fiscal quarters of 2013.
Domestic Supply Chain Revenues
Revenues from domestic supply chain operations increased $24.3 million, up 10.4% in the second quarter of 2014, and $50.3 million, up 10.8% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were due primarily to higher overall commodity prices, including cheese and meats, and higher volumes as a result of increased order counts at the store level. The published cheese block price-per-pound averaged $2.20 in the second quarter of 2014 and $2.18 in the two fiscal quarters of 2014, up from $1.77 in the second quarter of 2013 and $1.72 in the two fiscal quarters of 2013. We estimate that the higher cheese block price (passed through directly in domestic supply chain pricing to franchisees) resulted in an approximate $9.0 million increase in domestic supply chain revenues during the second quarter of 2014, and an $18.7 million increase in revenues in the two fiscal quarters of 2014.

International revenues primarily consist of royalties from our international franchise stores and international supply chain sales. Revenues from international operations increased $8.1 million, up 14.9% in the second quarter of 2014, and $14.8 million, up 13.7% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were due primarily to higher international royalty and other revenues as well as higher international supply chain revenues as discussed below.
Revenues from international royalties and other increased $4.5 million, up 14.9% in the second quarter of 2014, and $8.3 million, up 13.8% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were due primarily to higher same store sales and an increase in the average number of international stores open during 2014. These increases were offset in part by the negative impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates of approximately $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2014 and $1.5 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 caused by the stronger dollar when compared to the currencies in the international markets in which we compete. When excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, same store sales increased 7.7% in the second quarter of 2014, and 7.5% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. This compared to an increase of 5.8% in the second quarter of 2013, and 6.2% in the two fiscal quarters of 2013. When including the impact of foreign currency exchange rates, same store sales increased 7.6% in the second quarter of 2014 and 5.6% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. This compared to an increase of 3.9% in the second quarter of 2013, and 4.2% in the two fiscal quarters of 2013. The variance in our same store sales when including the impact of foreign currency exchange rates in 2014 was caused by the stronger dollar when compared to the currencies in the international markets in which we compete.
Revenues from international supply chain operations increased $3.6 million, up 15.1% in the second quarter of 2014, and $6.5 million, up 13.7% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 due primarily to higher volumes.

Cost of sales consists primarily of domestic Company-owned store and domestic supply chain costs incurred to generate related revenues. Components of cost of sales primarily include food, labor and occupancy costs.
The operating margin, which we define as revenues less cost of sales, increased $8.6 million, up 6.9% in the second quarter of 2014, and $15.9 million, up 6.2% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases in the operating margin were due primarily to higher domestic and international franchise revenues and higher supply chain volumes. Franchise revenues do not have a cost of sales component and, as such, changes in franchise revenues have a disproportionate effect on the operating margin.
As a percentage of revenues, the operating margin decreased 0.5 percentage points in the second quarter of 2014 and 0.8 percentage points in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 due primarily to higher overall commodity prices, including cheese and meats, and lower Company-owned stores operating margins.
As indicated above, the operating margin as a percentage of revenues was negatively impacted by higher cheese costs. Cheese price changes are a pass-through in domestic supply chain revenues and cost of sales and, as such, have no impact on the related operating margin as measured in dollars. However, cheese price changes do impact operating margin when measured as a percentage of revenues. For example, if the 2014 average cheese prices had been in effect during 2013, the impact on supply chain margins would have caused the operating margin for the second quarter of 2013 to be approximately 29.8% of revenues versus the reported 30.4% and approximately 30.1% of revenues for the two fiscal quarters of 2013 versus the reported 30.8%. However, the dollar margins for those same periods would have been unaffected.

The domestic Company-owned store operating margin, which does not include certain store-level costs such as royalties and advertising, decreased $0.9 million, down 4.6% in the second quarter of 2014, and $1.0 million, down 2.7% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These decreases were due primarily to higher food costs, offset in part by higher same store sales.
As a percentage of store revenues, the store operating margin decreased 1.2 percentage points in the second quarter of 2014 and 0.9 percentage points in the two fiscal quarters of 2014.
Food costs increased 0.9 percentage points to 28.7% in the second quarter of 2014, and 0.8 percentage points in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 to 28.5% due primarily to higher cheese, meat and other commodity prices. The cheese block price per pound averaged $2.20 in the second quarter of 2014 and $2.18 in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. This compared to $1.77 in the second quarter of 2013 and $1.72 in the two fiscal quarters of 2013.
Occupancy costs (which include rent, telephone, utilities and depreciation) increased 0.4 percentage points to 9.2% in the second quarter of 2014 and 0.3 percentage points to 9.1% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014, due primarily to slightly higher depreciation and telephone costs per store.
Insurance costs remained flat at 2.8% in the second quarter of 2014 and decreased 0.1 percentage points to 2.8% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014.
Labor and related costs decreased 0.3 percentage points to 27.9% in both the second quarter and two fiscal quarters of 2014 due primarily to leveraging higher sales per store.

The domestic supply chain operating margin increased $0.9 million, up 3.3% in the second quarter of 2014, and $1.9 million, up 3.7% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These increases were due primarily to higher volumes resulting from higher order counts at the store level.
As a percentage of supply chain revenues, the supply chain operating margin decreased 0.7 percentage points in both the second quarter of 2014 and the two fiscal quarters of 2014 as compared to the prior year periods. These decreases were due primarily to higher cheese, meat and other commodity costs, offset in part by the positive impact of higher volumes. Increases in certain food prices have a negative effect on the domestic supply chain operating margin percent due to the fixed dollar margin earned by domestic supply chain on certain food items. Had the 2014 cheese prices been in effect during 2013, the domestic supply chain operating margin as a percentage of domestic supply chain revenues would have been approximately 10.7% for the second quarter of 2013 versus the reported 11.1% and approximately 10.8% for the two fiscal quarters of 2013 versus the reported 11.2%. However, the dollar margins for those same periods would have been unaffected.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $1.2 million, up 2.2% in the second quarter of 2014, and decreased $0.3 million, down 0.3% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. The increase in the second quarter of 2014 was due primarily to our ongoing expenditures on technology and international initiatives. The decrease in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 was due primarily to a $1.7 million pre-tax gain on the sale of 14 Company-owned stores, the non-recurrence of the 2013 $1.8 million reimbursement to our national advertising fund related to their historical costs to support the Companys gift card program, and a decrease in non-cash compensation expense of $2.2 million, partially offset by increased expenditures on technology and international initiatives.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $0.6 million to $19.9 million in the second quarter of 2014, and $1.2 million to $40.2 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2014. These decreases were due primarily to an average lower debt balance during the second quarter and the two fiscal quarters of 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 and lower fees from the cash collateralization of outstanding letters of credit.
The Companys cash borrowing rate declined 0.1 percentage points to 5.3% for both the second quarter of 2014 and the two fiscal quarters of 2014 compared to the prior year periods.
Provision for Income Taxes
Provision for income taxes increased $2.9 million to $23.1 million in the second quarter of 2014, and $6.1 million to $46.5 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2014, due primarily to higher pre-tax income. The increase for the two fiscal quarters of 2014 was offset in part by a reversal of a deferred tax valuation allowance of approximately $0.3 million recognized in connection with the sale of 14 Company-owned stores. The effective tax rate decreased 0.2 percentage points to 37.5% during the second quarter of 2014, from 37.7% in the comparable period in 2013. The effective tax rate decreased 0.3 percentage points to 37.1% during the two fiscal quarters of 2014, from 37.4% in the comparable period in 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 15, 2014, we had working capital of $30.3 million, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents of $74.7 million, and including unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $15.3 million. Historically, we have operated with minimal positive working capital, or negative working capital, primarily because our receivable collection periods and inventory turn rates are faster than the normal payment terms on our current liabilities. We generally collect our receivables within three weeks from the date of the related sale, and we generally experience 30 to 40 inventory turns per year. In addition, our sales are not typically seasonal, which further limits our working capital requirements. These factors, coupled with servicing our debt obligations, paying our quarterly dividend, investing in our business and repurchasing our common stock, all of which are generally funded by cash flows from operations, also reduce our working capital amounts. As of June 15, 2014, we had approximately $53.8 million of restricted cash held for future principal and interest payments and $20.9 million of restricted cash held in a three month interest reserve as required by the related debt agreements, for a total of $74.7 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents.
As of June 15, 2014, we had approximately $1.52 billion of long-term debt, of which $0.5 million was classified as a current liability. Our fixed rate notes have scheduled principal amortization payments of $23.6 million in 2014, $29.5 million in 2015, $37.4 million in 2016, $39.4 million in each of 2017 and 2018, and $9.8 million in 2019. In accordance with our debt agreements, once we meet certain conditions, including maximum leverage ratios as defined of less than 4.5x, we may elect to not make the scheduled principal amortization payments. If one of the defined leverage ratios subsequently exceeds 4.5x, we must make-up the payments we had elected not to make out of future cash flows. During the second quarter of 2014, we met the maximum leverage ratios of less than 4.5x, and we intend to suspend our future debt amortization payments starting in the third quarter of 2014. Accordingly, we reclassified approximately $23.6 million from current portion of long-term debt to long-term debt.
As of June 15, 2014, we had $42.1 million of outstanding letters of credit and $57.9 million of available capacity under our $100.0 million variable funding notes. The letters of credit are primarily related to our casualty insurance programs and supply chain center leases. Borrowings under the variable funding notes are available to fund our working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes. However, our primary source of liquidity is cash flows from operations and availability of borrowings under our variable funding notes.
During the second quarter and two fiscal quarters of 2014, the Company repurchased and retired 687,750 and 909,231 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $49.9 million and $65.0 million, respectively. As of June 15, 2014, we had approximately $150.1 million remaining for future share repurchases under the current Board of Directors approved $200.0 million open market share repurchase program. Subsequent to the second quarter of 2014 and through July 15, 2014, the Company repurchased and retired an additional 5,000 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $0.4 million. We continue to maintain our flexibility to use ongoing excess cash flow generation and (subject to certain restrictions in the documents governing the variable funding notes) availability under the variable funding notes for, among other things, the repurchase of shares under the current authorized program, the payment of dividends and other corporate uses.
During the two fiscal quarters of 2014, the Company paid approximately $25.1 million of common stock dividends. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2014, the Companys Board of Directors declared a $0.25 per share dividend on its outstanding common stock for shareholders of record as of June 15, 2014 that was paid on June 30, 2014. The Company had approximately $14.4 million accrued for common stock dividends at June 15, 2014. Subsequent to the second quarter, on July 16, 2014, the Companys Board of Directors declared a $0.25 per share quarterly dividend for shareholders of record as of September 15, 2014 to be paid on September 30, 2014.
16
During the second quarter and two fiscal quarters of 2014, we experienced strong increases in both domestic and international same store sales versus the comparable periods in the prior year. Additionally, our international business continued to grow store counts in the second quarter and two fiscal quarters of 2014. These factors have contributed to our continued ability to generate positive operating cash flows. We expect to use our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and available borrowings under the variable funding notes to, among other things, fund working capital requirements, invest in our core business, service our indebtedness, pay dividends and repurchase our common stock. We have historically funded our working capital requirements, capital expenditures, debt repayments and repurchases of common stock primarily from our cash flows from operations and, when necessary, our available borrowings under variable funding note facilities. The Company believes its current unrestricted cash and cash equivalents balance and its expected cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund operations for at least the next twelve months. We did not have any material commitments for capital expenditures as of June 15, 2014.
Cash provided by operating activities was $60.8 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 compared to $66.8 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2013. The $6.0 million decrease was due primarily to an $8.8 million net change in operating assets and liabilities, mainly from the timing of payments of current operating liabilities. This decrease was partially offset by a $2.8 million increase in net income, excluding non-cash adjustments versus the prior year period, resulting primarily from our improved operating performance.
Cash provided by investing activities was $35.7 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 and cash used in investing activities was $7.9 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2013. The $43.6 million change was due primarily to a $50.4 million change in restricted cash and cash equivalents mainly as a result of the payment of the third quarter 2013 dividend that was included as restricted cash at the end of fiscal 2013 and the withdrawal of the $42.0 million that had been pledged as collateral for outstanding letters of credit.
Cash used in financing activities was $95.6 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 and $72.8 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2013. The $22.8 million increase was due primarily to a $13.7 million increase in common stock dividends and equivalent payments and an $8.9 million increase in cash used to repurchase shares of the Companys common stock versus the two fiscal quarters of 2013.
Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated growth, we believe that the cash generated from operations, our current unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and amounts available under our variable funding notes will be adequate to meet our anticipated debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs for at least the next twelve months. Our ability to continue to fund these items and continue to reduce debt could be adversely affected by the occurrence of any of the events described under Risk Factors in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There can be no assurance, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future borrowings will be available under the variable funding notes or otherwise to enable us to service our indebtedness, or to make anticipated capital expenditures. Our future operating performance and our ability to service, extend or refinance the fixed rate notes and to service, extend or refinance the variable funding notes will be subject to future economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market Risk
The Company is exposed to market risk from interest rate changes on our variable rate debt, which consists of variable funding note borrowings that are outstanding from time to time. The Company actively monitors this exposure when present. As of June 15, 2014, we had no outstanding variable funding note borrowings and $57.9 million available for borrowing, which is net of letters of credit of $42.1 million. Our outstanding fixed rate notes, which comprise substantially all of our outstanding borrowings, contain fixed interest rates until January 2019. We do not engage in speculative transactions nor do we hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in commodity prices. During the normal course of business, we purchase cheese and certain other food products that are affected by changes in commodity prices and, as a result, we are subject to volatility in our food costs. We may periodically enter into financial instruments to manage this risk. We do not engage in speculative transactions nor do we hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. In instances where we use fixed pricing agreements with our suppliers, we use these agreements to cover our physical commodity needs; the agreements are not net-settled and are accounted for as normal purchases.
The Company is exposed to various foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations for revenues generated by operations outside the United States, which can adversely impact net income and cash flows. Total revenues of approximately 13.8% in the second quarter of 2014, 13.0% in the second quarter of 2013, 13.5% in the two fiscal quarters of 2014 and 12.9% in the two fiscal quarters of 2013 were derived from sales to customers and royalties from franchisees outside the contiguous United States. This business is conducted in the local currency but royalty payments are generally remitted to us in U.S. dollars. We do not enter into financial instruments to manage this foreign currency exchange risk. A hypothetical 10% adverse change in the foreign currency rates in each of our top ten international markets, based on store count, would have resulted in a negative impact on revenues of approximately $4.9 million in the two fiscal quarters of 2014.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Management, with the participation of the Companys President and Chief Executive Officer, J. Patrick Doyle, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Michael T. Lawton, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Doyle and Mr. Lawton concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
During the quarterly period ended June 15, 2014, there were no changes in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
19
We are a party to lawsuits, revenue agent reviews by taxing authorities and administrative proceedings in the ordinary course of business which include, without limitation, workers compensation, general liability, automobile and franchisee claims. We are also subject to suits related to employment practices as well as intellectual property, including patents.
While we may occasionally be party to large claims, including class action suits, we do not believe that these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will materially affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
There have been no material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed in the Companys Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2013.
