		<description><![CDATA[The restaurant industry is showing improvements and seems poised for long-term growth, but concerns about the health of the U.S. economy and the nagging sovereign debt issues in Europe pose some risks to this outlook. However, if we look back at the last few months, restaurant operators managed to post improved results riding on the back of modest traffic improvement and the consequent rise in comparable-store sales. A recent survey by the National Restaurant Association revealed that the Restaurant Performance Index (RPI), measuring the health and outlook on the U.S. restaurant industry, was 100.1 in September, up 0.7% from August. It was the highest level since June. The RPI run-rate in the last three months connotes improvements in same-store sales and customer traffic.

The company’s comparable restaurant sales grew 6.7% in the second four-week period of the second quarter of 2012, representing the twentieth consecutive period of growth. The upside in sales was primarily driven by improved comparable restaurant sales at both Benihana Teppanyaki and RA Sushi restaurants due to higher traffic. However, sales at the other 12 restaurants were hurt by Hurricane Irene. As a result, comps plunged by 0.7% for the period. The comparable restaurant sales jumped 8.2% at Benihana Teppanyaki restaurants on the back of higher guest count (up 6.2%) resulting from the Benihana Teppanyaki ]]></description>

Riding on the back of a slowly reviving U.S. economy and the consequent rise in comparable-store sales, restaurant operators have managed to post improved results in recent months. We expect restaurant companies to continue delivering better numbers in the upcoming quarter over the year-earlier period. In second quarter 2011, most big names in the industry outperformed the Zacks Consensus estimates. More good news came from the NPD foodservice market research report, which stated that annual visits to restaurants are expected to increase by 8% over the next ten years. A recent survey by the National Restaurant Association revealed that the Restaurant Performance Index (RPI), measuring the health and outlook on the U.S. restaurant industry, was 99.9 in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[California-based DineEquity Inc. (DIN), which operates approximately 3,500 Applebee&#8217;s and IHOP restaurants, recently announced the inking of a multi-restaurant franchisee agreement with Kuwait-based M.H. Alshaya Co., to expand its IHOP brand in the Middle East. However, the financial terms of the contract were not disclosed. Per the deal, 40 new IHOP restaurants are expected to open in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Lebanon, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Bahrain and Egypt over the next five years. The first restaurant is expected to open within 12 months. We are certain that people in the Middle East would love IHOP’s cuisine. We believe that the company’s recent partnership with Alshaya will enhance its market share in the Middle East, as Alshaya is one of the largest retailers in the Middle East.
