GuruFocus Profitability Rank ranks how profitable a company is and how likely the companyย’s business will stay that way. It is based on these factors:

1. Operating Margin
2. Trend of the Operating Margin (5-year average). The company with an uptrend profit margin has a higher rank.
ย•ย•3. Consistency of the profitability
4. Piotroski F-Score
5. Predictability Rankย•

The maximum rank is 10. A rank of 7 or higher means a higher profitability and may stay that way. A rank of 3 or lower indicates that the company has had trouble to make a profit.

Profitability Rank is not directly related to the Financial Strength Rank. But if a company is consistently profitable, its financial strength will be stronger.

Business Description

Papa John's International Inc. operates and franchises pizza delivery and carryout restaurants and, in certain international markets, dine-in and restaurant-based delivery restaurants under the trademark 'Papa John's'. The first Company-owned Papa John's restaurant opened in 1985 and the first franchised restaurant opened in 1986. At December 27, 2009, there were 3,469 Papa John's restaurants in operation, consisting of 614 Company-owned and 2,855 franchised restaurants operating domestically in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico and in 29 countries. Papa John's has defined six reportable segments: domestic restaurants, domestic commissaries, domestic franchising, international operations, variable interest entities and 'all other' business units. The domestic restaurant segment consists of the operations of all domestic company-owned restaurants and derives its revenues mainly from retail sales of pizza and side items, such as breadsticks, cheesesticks, chicken strips, chicken wings, dessert pizza and soft drinks to the general public. The domestic commissary segment consists of the operations of its regional dough production and product distribution centers and derives its revenues mainly from the sale and distribution of food and paper products to domestic company-owned and franchised restaurants. The domestic franchising segment consists of its franchise sales and support activities and derives its revenues from sales of franchise and development rights and collection of royalties from its domestic franchisees. The international operations segment mainly consists of its company-owned restaurants and distribution sales to franchised Papa John's restaurants located in the United Kingdom, Mexico and China and its franchise sales and support activities, which derive revenues from sales of franchise and development rights and the collection of royalties from its international franchisees. Variable interest entities consist of entities in which the Company is the main beneficiary, and include BIBP and certain franchisees to which it has extended loans. All other business units that do not meet the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments consist of operations that derive revenues from the sale, mainly to company-owned and franchised restaurants, of printing and promotional items, risk management services, and information systems and related services used in restaurant operations and certain partnership development activities. A total of 216 Papa John's restaurants were opened during 2009, consisting of nine Company-owned and 207 franchised restaurants, while 127 Papa John's restaurants closed during 2009, consisting of 9 Company-owned restaurants and 118 franchised restaurants. The Company's marketing strategy consists of both national and local components. Its domestic national strategy includes national advertising on television, through print, direct mail and online.
