"We are pleased with the continued strong gains we achieved in domestic RevPAR during the fourth quarter and the growth of our global franchise system," said Stephen P. Joyce, president and chief executive officer. "While the near term franchise sales environment remains challenging, we believe that our well-known diversified brands will continue to resonate with developers and hotel owners due to our focus on owners' property-level profitability and return on investment. We remain focused on prudently managing our brands, gaining operating efficiencies and returning value to our shareholders."
Special Items
During the three months and year ended December 31, 2011, the company recorded employee termination benefit charges included in selling, general and administration ("SG&A") expenses of approximately $3.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2011, the company reduced the carrying amount of a parcel of land held for sale resulting in a loss of $1.8 million included in other gains and losses. These special items represent diluted EPS of $0.04 and $0.07 for the three months and year ended December 31, 2011, respectively.
During the three months and year ended December 31, 2010, the company recorded employee termination benefit charges in SG&A of approximately $1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. These special items represent diluted EPS of $0.02 for both the three months and year ended December 31, 2010.
Outlook for 2012
The company's first quarter 2012 diluted EPS is expected to be at least $0.30. The company expects full-year 2012 diluted EPS to range between $1.99 and $2.04. EBITDA for full-year 2012 are expected to range between $199 million and $203 million. These estimates include the following assumptions:
-- The company expects net domestic unit growth to be relatively flat in
2012;
-- RevPAR is expected to increase approximately 8% for first quarter of
2012 and increase between approximately 4% and 6% for full-year 2012;
-- The effective royalty rate is expected to increase 1 basis point for
full-year 2012;
-- During the fourth quarter of 2011, the company implemented measures to
increase its productivity and streamline services that are projected to
result in future cost savings. As a result of these measures as well as
expected reduction of certain variable incentive compensation and
employee termination benefits, the company's 2012 SG&A is projected to
decline approximately $15 million from the $106.4 million incurred
during the year ended December 31, 2011.
-- All figures assume the existing share count and an effective tax rate of
34.5% for the first quarter and full-year 2012.
Use of Free Cash Flow
The company has historically used its free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures) to return value to shareholders, primarily through share repurchases and dividends.
For the year ended December 31, 2011 the company paid $43.7 million of cash dividends to shareholders. The current quarterly dividend rate per common share is $0.185, subject to declaration by our board of directors.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, the company purchased approximately 1.6 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $31.59 for a total cost of $51.0 million under the share repurchase program. Subsequent to December 31, 2011 and through February 20, 2012, the company repurchased an additional 0.2 million shares for a total cost of $5.9 million at an average price of $36.49 and has authorization to purchase up to an additional 1.8 million shares under this program. We expect to continue making repurchases in the open market and through privately negotiated transactions, subject to market and other conditions. No minimum number of share repurchases has been fixed. Since Choice announced its stock repurchase program on June 25, 1998, the company has repurchased 44.8 million shares of its common stock for a total cost of $1.1 billion through December 31, 2011. Considering the effect of a two-for-one stock split in October 2005, the company had repurchased 77.8 million shares through December 31, 2011 under the share repurchase program at an average price of $13.73 per share.
Our board of directors previously authorized us to enter into programs which permit us to offer financing, investment and guaranty support to qualified franchisees as well as to acquire and resell real estate to incent franchise development for certain brands in top markets. Over the next several years, we expect to continue to opportunistically deploy capital pursuant to these programs to promote growth of our emerging brands. The amount and timing of the investment in these programs will be dependent on market and other conditions. Notwithstanding these programs, the company expects to continue to return value to its shareholders through a combination of share repurchases and dividends, subject to market and other conditions.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain matters discussed in this press release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities law. Generally, our use of words such as "expect," "estimate," "believe," "anticipate," "will," "forecast," "plan"," project," "assume" or similar words of futurity identify statements that are forward-looking and that we intend to be included within the Safe Harbor protections provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are based on management's current beliefs, assumptions and expectations regarding future events, which in turn are based on information currently available to management. Such statements may relate to projections of the company's revenue, earnings and other financial and operational measures, company debt levels, payment of stock dividends, and future operations, among other matters. We caution you not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements do not guarantee future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors.
Several factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements of the company to differ materially from those expressed in or contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Such risks include, but are not limited to, changes to general, domestic and foreign economic conditions; operating risks common in the lodging and franchising industries; changes to the desirability of our brands as viewed by hotel operators and customers; changes to the terms or termination of our contracts with franchisees; our ability to keep pace with improvements in technology utilized for reservations systems and other operating systems; fluctuations in the supply and demand for hotels rooms; and our ability to manage effectively our indebtedness. These and other risk factors are discussed in detail in the Risk Factors section of the company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2011. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Statement Concerning Non-GAAP Financial Measurements
Adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted SG&A, franchising revenues and adjusted franchising margins are non-GAAP financial measurements. This information should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance as promulgated under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), such as diluted earnings per share, operating income, total revenues and operating margins. The company's calculation of these measurements may be different from the calculations used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. The company has included an exhibit accompanying this release that reconciles these measures to the comparable GAAP measurement. We discuss management's reasons for reporting these non-GAAP measures below.
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization: EBITDA reflects earnings excluding the impact of interest expense, tax expense, depreciation and amortization. Our management considers EBITDA to be an indicator of operating performance because it can be used to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures, and expand our business. EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in our industry. In addition, it is used by analysts, lenders, investors and others, as well as by us, to facilitate comparisons between the company and its competitors because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry.
Franchising Revenues and Margins: The company reports franchising revenues and margins which exclude marketing and reservation revenues and hotel operations. Marketing and reservation activities are excluded from revenues and operating margins since the company is contractually required by its franchise agreements to use these fees collected for marketing and reservation activities. Cumulative reservation and marketing system fees not expended are recorded as a payable on the company's financial statements and are carried over to the next fiscal year and expended in accordance with the franchise agreements. Cumulative marketing and reservation expenditures in excess of system fees collected for marketing and reservation activities are recorded as a receivable on the company's financial statements. In addition, the company has the contractual authority to require that the franchisees in the system at any given point repay the company for any deficits related to marketing and reservation activities. Hotel operations are excluded since they do not reflect the most accurate measure of the company's core franchising business. These non-GAAP measures are a commonly used measure of performance in our industry and facilitate comparisons between the company and its competitors.
Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted SG&A and Adjusted Franchising Margins: The company's management also uses adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted SG&A and adjusted franchising margins which exclude employee termination benefits for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 as well as a reduction in the carrying amount of land held for sale during the year ended December 31, 2011. The company utilizes these non-GAAP measures to enable investors to perform meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results and as a means to emphasize the results of on-going operations.

"We are pleased with the continued strong gains we achieved in domestic RevPAR during the fourth quarter and the growth of our global franchise system," said Stephen P. Joyce, president and chief executive officer. "While the near term franchise sales environment remains challenging, we believe that our well-known diversified brands will continue to resonate with developers and hotel owners due to our focus on owners' property-level profitability and return on investment. We remain focused on prudently managing our brands, gaining operating efficiencies and returning value to our shareholders."
Special Items
During the three months and year ended December 31, 2011, the company recorded employee termination benefit charges included in selling, general and administration ("SG&A") expenses of approximately $3.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2011, the company reduced the carrying amount of a parcel of land held for sale resulting in a loss of $1.8 million included in other gains and losses. These special items represent diluted EPS of $0.04 and $0.07 for the three months and year ended December 31, 2011, respectively.
During the three months and year ended December 31, 2010, the company recorded employee termination benefit charges in SG&A of approximately $1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. These special items represent diluted EPS of $0.02 for both the three months and year ended December 31, 2010.
Outlook for 2012
The company's first quarter 2012 diluted EPS is expected to be at least $0.30. The company expects full-year 2012 diluted EPS to range between $1.99 and $2.04. EBITDA for full-year 2012 are expected to range between $199 million and $203 million. These estimates include the following assumptions:
- The company expects net domestic unit growth to be relatively flat in 2012;
- RevPAR is expected to increase approximately 8% for first quarter of 2012 and increase between approximately 4% and 6% for full-year 2012;
- The effective royalty rate is expected to increase 1 basis point for full-year 2012;
- During the fourth quarter of 2011, the company implemented measures to increase its productivity and streamline services that are projected to result in future cost savings. As a result of these measures as well as expected reduction of certain variable incentive compensation and employee termination benefits, the company's 2012 SG&A is projected to decline approximately $15 million from the $106.4 million incurred during the year ended December 31, 2011.
- All figures assume the existing share count and an effective tax rate of 34.5% for the first quarter and full-year 2012.
Use of Free Cash Flow
The company has historically used its free cash flow (cash flow from operations less capital expenditures) to return value to shareholders, primarily through share repurchases and dividends.
For the year ended December 31, 2011 the company paid $43.7 million of cash dividends to shareholders. The current quarterly dividend rate per common share is $0.185, subject to declaration by our board of directors.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, the company purchased approximately 1.6 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $31.59 for a total cost of $51.0 million under the share repurchase program. Subsequent to December 31, 2011 and through February 20, 2012, the company repurchased an additional 0.2 million shares for a total cost of $5.9 million at an average price of $36.49 and has authorization to purchase up to an additional 1.8 million shares under this program. We expect to continue making repurchases in the open market and through privately negotiated transactions, subject to market and other conditions. No minimum number of share repurchases has been fixed. Since Choice announced its stock repurchase program on June 25, 1998, the company has repurchased 44.8 million shares of its common stock for a total cost of $1.1 billion through December 31, 2011. Considering the effect of a two-for-one stock split in October 2005, the company had repurchased 77.8 million shares through December 31, 2011 under the share repurchase program at an average price of $13.73 per share.
Our board of directors previously authorized us to enter into programs which permit us to offer financing, investment and guaranty support to qualified franchisees as well as to acquire and resell real estate to incent franchise development for certain brands in top markets. Over the next several years, we expect to continue to opportunistically deploy capital pursuant to these programs to promote growth of our emerging brands. The amount and timing of the investment in these programs will be dependent on market and other conditions. Notwithstanding these programs, the company expects to continue to return value to its shareholders through a combination of share repurchases and dividends, subject to market and other conditions.

Statement Concerning Non-GAAP Financial Measurements
Adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted SG&A, franchising revenues and adjusted franchising margins are non-GAAP financial measurements. This information should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance as promulgated under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), such as diluted earnings per share, operating income, total revenues and operating margins. The company's calculation of these measurements may be different from the calculations used by other companies and therefore comparability may be limited. The company has included an exhibit accompanying this release that reconciles these measures to the comparable GAAP measurement. We discuss management's reasons for reporting these non-GAAP measures below.
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization: EBITDA reflects earnings excluding the impact of interest expense, tax expense, depreciation and amortization. Our management considers EBITDA to be an indicator of operating performance because it can be used to measure our ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures, and expand our business. EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in our industry. In addition, it is used by analysts, lenders, investors and others, as well as by us, to facilitate comparisons between the company and its competitors because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry.
Franchising Revenues and Margins: The company reports franchising revenues and margins which exclude marketing and reservation revenues and hotel operations. Marketing and reservation activities are excluded from revenues and operating margins since the company is contractually required by its franchise agreements to use these fees collected for marketing and reservation activities. Cumulative reservation and marketing system fees not expended are recorded as a payable on the company's financial statements and are carried over to the next fiscal year and expended in accordance with the franchise agreements. Cumulative marketing and reservation expenditures in excess of system fees collected for marketing and reservation activities are recorded as a receivable on the company's financial statements. In addition, the company has the contractual authority to require that the franchisees in the system at any given point repay the company for any deficits related to marketing and reservation activities. Hotel operations are excluded since they do not reflect the most accurate measure of the company's core franchising business. These non-GAAP measures are a commonly used measure of performance in our industry and facilitate comparisons between the company and its competitors.
Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted SG&A and Adjusted Franchising Margins: The company's management also uses adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted SG&A and adjusted franchising margins which exclude employee termination benefits for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 as well as a reduction in the carrying amount of land held for sale during the year ended December 31, 2011. The company utilizes these non-GAAP measures to enable investors to perform meaningful comparisons of past, present and future operating results and as a means to emphasize the results of on-going operations.
