2010. These results include the favorable impact of $0.01 per diluted
share from the Company’s repurchase of 897,556 shares under its $600

Third and Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2010 Outlook
Third Quarter Fiscal 2010 Targets
Diluted EPS Target
For the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company is targeting earnings per
diluted share of $0.71 to $0.73 versus $0.61 per diluted share in the third
quarter of fiscal 2009. This earnings per diluted share target does not
assume any additional share buyback beyond the $0.02 per diluted share
impact from the shares repurchased as of the date of this earnings release.
If the Company meets this target, diluted earnings per share will grow 16%
to 20% in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 versus the comparable period in
fiscal 2009. If the Company is able to deliver 16% to 20% diluted earnings
per share growth in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, this will be on top
of 35% year-over-year diluted earnings per share growth in the third
quarter of fiscal 2009.
This third quarter of fiscal 2010 diluted earnings per share target
includes the following key assumptions:
Comparable Bakery-Cafe Sales Growth
The Company’s third quarter fiscal 2010 Company-owned comparable
bakery-cafe sales growth is targeted at 5.0% to 6.0% versus the comparable
period in fiscal 2009. The assumptions underlying this comparable
bakery-cafe sales growth target for the third quarter are flat transaction
growth and average check growth of approximately 5.0% to 6.0%, with average
check growth comprised of retail price increases of approximately 2.5% and
mix impact of approximately 2.5% to 3.5%.
The Company announced today system-wide comparable bakery-cafe sales in the
first twenty-seven days of the third quarter of fiscal 2010 were up
approximately 7.8%. Company-owned comparable bakery-cafe sales in the first
twenty-seven days of the third quarter of fiscal 2010 were up approximately
6.5% versus the comparable period in fiscal 2009, while franchise-operated
comparable bakery-cafe sales were up approximately 8.7% during the same
period.
Operating Margin Improvement
In the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company is targeting 0 to 50 basis
points of improvement in operating margin.
New Unit AWS and Development
The Company is targeting approximately 20 to 22 system-wide new unit
openings in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 with average weekly sales for
Company-owned new units consistent with its full year target of $36,000 to
$38,000.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2010 Targets
Diluted EPS Target
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company is targeting earnings
per diluted share of $1.11 to $1.13 versus $0.95 per diluted share in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. This earnings per diluted share target does
not assume any additional share buyback, but does include the $0.03 per
diluted share impact of shares repurchased as of the date of this release.
If the Company meets this target, diluted earnings per share will grow 17%
to 19% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 versus the comparable period in
fiscal 2009. This fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 diluted earnings per share
target includes the following key assumptions:
Comparable Bakery-Cafe Sales Growth
The Company’s fourth quarter fiscal 2010 Company-owned comparable
bakery-cafe sales growth is targeted at 4.0% to 6.0% versus the comparable
period in fiscal 2009. The assumptions underlying this comparable
bakery-cafe sales growth target for the fourth quarter are transaction
growth of 1.0% to 3.0% and average check growth of approximately 3.0%, with
average check growth comprised of retail price increases of approximately
2.0% and mix impact of approximately 1.0%.
Operating Margin Improvement
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company is targeting 0 to 50
basis points of improvement in operating margin.
New Unit AWS and Development
The Company is targeting approximately 39 to 41 system-wide new unit
openings in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 with average weekly sales for
Company-owned new units consistent with its full year target of $36,000 to
$38,000.
Full Year Fiscal 2010 Targets
Raising Full Year Fiscal 2010 Targets
Diluted EPS Target
The Company is raising its target earnings per diluted share to $3.50 to
$3.52. If the Company meets its target, it would generate diluted earnings
per share growth of 26% to 27% in fiscal 2010. This is an increase from
the Company’s prior full year fiscal 2010 earnings per diluted share target
of $3.40 to $3.44 and includes the $0.06 per diluted share impact from the
share repurchase activity as of the date of this release, the strength of
the second quarter fiscal 2010 results, and the Company’s greater
confidence in its expectations for Company-owned comparable bakery-cafe
sales growth.
The fiscal 2010 diluted earnings per share target assumes the following key
assumptions:
Comparable Bakery-Cafe Sales Growth
The Company is raising its fiscal 2010 target for Company-owned comparable
bakery-cafe sales to growth of 7.0% to 8.0% from 6.5% to 7.5%. The
increase in assumption for Company-owned comparable bakery-cafe sales
growth reflects the strength of the business in the second quarter of
fiscal 2010. This target assumes transaction growth of between 1.5% and
2.0% and average check growth of approximately between 5.5% and 6.0%.
Operating Margin Improvement
The Company’s target remains an improvement of approximately 100 to 150
basis points in operating margin for fiscal 2010.
New Unit AWS and Development
The Company now believes new unit development will end the year in the
lower half of the 80 to 90 system-wide new unit opening target for fiscal
2010 with average weekly sales for Company-owned new units of $36,000 to
$38,000.
Concluding Comment
Chief Executive Officer Bill Moreton commented, “I am pleased to report
another strong quarter with our earnings per share growing 31% over the
prior year. This comes on top of the 25% EPS growth on a year-over-year
basis in the second quarter of 2009. Our strategy of investing in the
quality of our customers’ experience to drive differentiation and
competitive advantage continues to pay dividends. Additionally, we have
increased our investments in marketing, operations and product development,
which we believe will contribute to our medium and longer term success. As
a result, we believe we will continue to be able to drive shareholder value
and are targeting a long-term growth rate of 15% to 20% annually for the
next 3 to 5 years.”

sales results for the first twenty-seven days of the third quarter of
fiscal 2010, and full year and third quarter fiscal 2010 targets and
business outlook. To access the call or view a copy of this release, go to

available for 14 days after the call, and the release will be archived for
one year.
We include in this release information on Company-owned, franchise-operated
and system-wide comparable bakery-cafe sales percentages. Company-owned
comparable bakery-cafe sales percentages are based on sales from
Company-owned bakery-cafes included in our base store bakery-cafes. In
fiscal 2010 we modified the method by which we determine bakery-cafes
included in our comparable bakery-cafe sales percentages to include those
bakery-cafes with an open date prior to the first day of our prior fiscal
year. Previously, comparable bakery-cafe sales percentages were based on
bakery-cafes that had been in operation for 18 months. Similarly, for
fiscal 2010, franchise-operated bakery-cafes include only those
bakery-cafes with an open date prior to the first day of our prior fiscal
year.
Franchise-operated comparable bakery-cafe sales percentages are based on
sales from franchised bakery-cafes, as reported by franchisees, that are
included in our base store bakery-cafes. Acquired Company-owned and
franchise-operated bakery-cafes and other restaurant or bakery-cafe
concepts are included in our comparable bakery-cafe sales percentages after
we have acquired a 100 percent ownership interest and such acquisition
occurred prior to the first day of our prior fiscal year. Comparable
bakery-cafe sales exclude closed locations.
Comparable bakery-cafe sales percentages are non-GAAP financial measures,
which should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for other
measures of performance prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles, or GAAP, and may not be equivalent to comparable
bakery-cafe sales as defined or used by other companies. We do not record
franchise-operated bakery-cafe sales as revenues. However, royalty
revenues are calculated based on a percentage of franchise-operated
bakery-cafe sales, as reported by franchisees. We use franchise-operated
and system-wide sales information internally in connection with store
development decisions, planning, and budgeting analyses. We believe
franchise-operated and system-wide sales information is useful in assessing
consumer acceptance of our brand; facilitates an understanding of our
financial performance and the overall direction and trends of sales and
operating income; helps us appreciate the effectiveness of our advertising
and marketing initiatives which our franchisees also contribute based on a
percentage of their sales; and provides information that is relevant for
comparison within the industry.
Panera Bread Company owns and franchises 1,399 bakery-cafes as of June 29,
2010 under the Panera Bread®, Saint Louis Bread Co.®, and Paradise
Bakery & Café® names. Our bakery-cafes are principally located in
suburban, strip mall and regional mall locations. We feature high quality,
reasonably priced food in a warm, inviting, and comfortable environment.
With our identity rooted in handcrafted, fresh-baked, artisan bread, we are

Nearly all of our bakery-cafes have a menu highlighted by antibiotic free
chicken, whole grain bread, and select organic and all-natural ingredients,
with zero grams of artificial trans fat per serving, which provide
flavorful, wholesome offerings. Our menu includes a wide variety of
year-round favorites complemented by new items introduced seasonally with
the goal of creating new standards in everyday food choices. In
neighborhoods across this country and in Ontario, Canada, our customers
enjoy our warm and welcoming environment featuring comfortable gathering
areas, relaxing decor, and free internet access. Our bakery-cafes

Company-owned comparable
bakery-cafe sales percentages are based on sales from
Company-owned
bakery-cafes included in our base store
bakery-cafes. In fiscal 2010 we have modified the method by which we
determine
bakery-cafes included in our comparable
bakery-cafe sales percentages to include those bakery-cafes with an open
date prior to the first day of our prior fiscal year. Previously,
comparable b
akery-cafe sales percentages were based on
bakery-cafes that had been in operation for 18 months. Similarly, for
fiscal 2010, franchise-operated
bakery-cafes include only those bakery-cafes with an open date prior to the
first day of our prior fiscal year. Franchise-operated comparable
bakery-cafe sales percentages are based on sales from franchised
bakery-cafes, as reported by franchisees, that are included in our base
store
bakery-cafes. Acquired Company-owned and
franchise-operated bakery-cafes and other restaurant or bakery-cafe
concepts are included in our comparable bakery-cafe sales percentages after
we have acquired a 100 percent ownership interest and such acquisition date
occurred prior to the first day of our prior fiscal year. Comparable
bakery-cafe sales exclude closed locations.
