NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates
Financial Statement Preparation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements as of January 2,April 3, 2022, and for the quarter and two quarters ended January 2,April 3, 2022 and December 27, 2020,March 28, 2021, have been prepared by Starbucks Corporation under the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the financial information for the quarter and two quarters ended January 2,April 3, 2022 and December 27, 2020March 28, 2021 reflects all adjustments and accruals, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“10-Q”), Starbucks Corporation is referred to as “Starbucks,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our.”
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews financial information for operational decision-making purposes. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, certain changes were made to our management team, and our operating segment reporting structure was realigned as a result. We realigned our fully licensed Latin America and Caribbean markets from our Americas operating segment to our International operating segment. We renamed the Americas operating segment to the North America operating segment, since it is comprised of our company-operated and licensed stores in the U.S. and Canada. We also made certain other immaterial changes between our International operating segment and Corporate and Other. Certain prior period information for our North America and International operating segments and our Corporate and Other reportable segment has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. There was no impact on consolidated net revenues, total operating expenses, operating income or net earnings per share as a result of these changes.
Certain prior period information on the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
The financial information as of October 3, 2021 is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended October 3, 2021 (“fiscal 2021”) included in Item 8 in the Fiscal 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“10-K”). The information included in this 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the footnotes and management’s discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial statements in the 10-K.
The results of operations for the quarter and two quarters ended January 2,April 3, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved for the entire fiscal year ending October 2, 2022 (“fiscal 2022”). Our fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to September 30. Our fiscal 2022 year includes 52 weeks while our fiscal 2021 year included 53 weeks, with the 53rd week falling in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.
The novel coronavirus, known as the global COVID-19 pandemic, was first identified in December 2019 before spreading to markets where we have company-operated or licensed stores. We have since established the necessary protocols to operate safely, and our businesses demonstrated powerful momentum beyond recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Omicron variant quickly spread during the quarter, and our operations continuedCertain markets, primarily China, continue to experience pandemic-related restrictions impacting sales in both our North Americaas they battle COVID-19 resurgences and International segments, primarily China. Impacts also included higher than anticipated costs in North America due to staffing shortages in our supply chain and retail stores.navigate through prolonged lockdowns. We continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on our business and results of operations; however, we cannot predict the duration, scope or severity of the COVID-19 pandemic or its future impact on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Government Subsidies
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, certain governments have provided subsidies and assistance to companies. The most substantial of these were the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) and the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy ("CEWS"), which were no longer applicable in late fiscal 2021. However, during the quarter and two quarters ended January 2,April 3, 2022, an international government COVID-19 related subsidy reduced our store operating expenses by $11.5$12.4 million and $23.9 million, respectively, on our consolidated statements of earnings. During the quarter and two quarters ended December 27, 2020,March 28, 2021, qualified payroll and other credits reduced our store operating expenses by $19.8$97.4 million and $117.2 million, respectively, on our consolidated statements of earnings. After netting the qualified credits against our payable, a receivable of $98.8$97.1 million and $172.4 million was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets as of January 2,April 3, 2022 and October 3, 2021, respectively. As of January 2,April 3, 2022, deferred payroll tax payments of $116.5$116.4 million were included in accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. As of October 3, 2021, deferred payroll tax payments of $116.4 million were included in both accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
Restructuring
In fiscal 2021, we substantially completed our plan to optimizereposition our North America store portfolio, primarily in dense metropolitan markets by developingpursuing strategic store closures and focusing on new store formats tothat better cater to changing customer tastes and preferences. As a result, we recorded approximately $23.0 million and $95.2 million to restructuring and

we recorded approximately $72.2 million to restructuring and impairments on our consolidated statements of earnings during the quarter ended December 27, 2020.and two quarters ended March 28, 2021. Of this total, $42.6these totals, $8.6 million and $51.2 million related to the impairment of store assets for which either a triggering event occurred and the assets were determined not to be recoverable or the store was permanently closed.closed, respectively. During the quarter and two quarters ended December 27, 2020,March 28, 2021, an additional $29.6$14.4 million and $44.0 million, respectively, was associated with accelerated amortization of right-of-use (“ROU”) lease assets and other lease costs due to planned store closures prior to the end of contractual lease terms. As the restructuring plan was substantially completed in fiscal 2021, we did not recognize any material restructuring and impairment amounts during the quarter and two quarters ended January 2,April 3, 2022. As of January 2,April 3, 2022 and October 3, 2021, there were no material restructuring-related accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance related to reference rate reform. The pronouncement provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the current guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burden related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance was effective upon issuance and generally can be applied to applicable contract modifications through December 31, 2022. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact to our financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance replacing the incurred loss impairment methodology with a new methodology that reflects current expected credit losses on financial assets, including receivables and available-for-sale securities. The new methodology requires entities to estimate and recognize expected credit losses each reporting period. The guidance was adopted during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 under the modified retrospective approach and resulted in a $2.2 million transition adjustment to opening shareholders' retained deficit on our consolidated statements of equity.

Note 2: Derivative Financial Instruments
Interest Rates
From time to time, we enter into designated cash flow hedges to manage the variability in cash flows due to changes in benchmark interest rates. We enter into interest rate swap agreements and treasury locks, which are synthetic forward sales of U.S. Treasury securities settled in cash based upon the difference between an agreed-upon treasury rate and the prevailing treasury rate at settlement. These agreements are cash settled at the time of the pricing of the related debt. Each derivative agreement's gain or loss is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified to interest expense over the life of the related debt.
To hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt, we enter into interest rate swap agreements, which are designated as fair value hedges. The changes in fair values of these derivative instruments and the offsetting changes in fair values of the underlying hedged debt due to changes in the relevant benchmark interest rates are recorded in interest expense. Refer to Note 7, Debt, for additional information on our long-term debt.
Foreign Currency
To reduce cash flow volatility from foreign currency fluctuations, we enter into forward and swap contracts to hedge portions of cash flows of anticipated intercompany royalty payments, inventory purchases, and intercompany borrowing and lending activities. The resulting gains and losses from these derivatives are recorded in AOCI and subsequently reclassified to revenue, product and distribution costs, or interest income and other, net, respectively, when the hedged exposures affect net earnings.
From time to time, we may enter into financial instruments, including, but not limited to, forward and swap contracts or foreign currency-denominated debt, to hedge the currency exposure of our net investments in certain international operations. The resulting gains and losses from these derivatives are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified to net earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.
Foreign currency forward and swap contracts not designated as hedging instruments are used to mitigate the foreign exchange risk of certain other balance sheet items. Gains and losses from these derivatives are largely offset by the financial impact of translating foreign currency-denominated payables and receivables, and these gains and losses are recorded in interest income and other, net.
Commodities
Depending on market conditions, we may enter into coffee forward contracts, futures contracts and collars to hedge anticipated cash flows under our price-to-be-fixed green coffee contracts, which are described further in Note 4, Inventories, or our longer-dated forecasted coffee demand where underlying fixed price and price-to-be-fixed contracts are not yet available. The resulting gains and losses are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified to product and distribution costs when the hedged exposure affects net earnings.
Depending on market conditions, we may also enter into dairy forward contracts and futures contracts to hedge a portion of anticipated cash flows under our dairy purchase contracts and our forecasted dairy demand. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified to product and distribution costs when the hedged exposure affects net earnings.
Cash flow hedges related to anticipated transactions are designated and documented at the inception of each hedge. Cash flows from hedging transactions are classified in the same categories as the cash flows from the respective hedged items. For de-designated cash flow hedges in which the underlying transactions are no longer probable of occurring, the related accumulated derivative gains or losses are recognized in interest income and other, net on our consolidated statements of earnings. Due to ongoing global supply chain disruptions, certain coffee cash flow hedges have been de-designated early which resulted in insignificant amounts recognized in earnings during the quarter and two quarters ended April 3, 2022. These derivatives may be accounted for prospectively as non-designated derivatives until maturity, re-designated to new hedging relationships or terminate early. We continue to believe transactions related to our other designated cash flow hedges are probable to occur.
To mitigate the price uncertainty of a portion of our future purchases, including diesel fuel and other commodities, we enter into swap contracts, futures and collars that are not designated as hedging instruments. The resulting gains and losses are recorded in interest income and other, net to help offset price fluctuations on our beverage, food, packaging and transportation costs, which are included in product and distribution costs on our consolidated statements of earnings.

Other merchandise held for sale includes, among other items, serveware, food and tea. Inventory levels vary due to seasonality, commodity market supply and price fluctuations.
As of January 2,April 3, 2022, we had committed to purchasing green coffee totaling $617$500 million under fixed-price contracts and an estimated $1,433 million$1.3 billion under price-to-be-fixed contracts. A portion of our price-to-be-fixed contracts are effectively fixed through the use of futures. See Note 2, Derivative Financial Instruments, for further discussion. Price-to-be-fixed contracts are purchase commitments whereby the quality, quantity, delivery period and other negotiated terms are agreed upon, but the date, and therefore the price, at which the base “C” coffee commodity price component will be fixed has not yet been established. For most contracts, either Starbucks or the seller has the option to “fix” the base “C” coffee commodity price prior to the delivery date. For other contracts, Starbucks and the seller may agree upon pricing parameters determined by the base “C” coffee commodity price. Until prices are fixed, we estimate the total cost of these purchase commitments. We believe, based on established relationships with our suppliers and continuous monitoring, the risk of non-delivery on these purchase commitments is remote.

Note 7: Debt
Revolving Credit Facility
Our $3 billion unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the "2021 credit facility"), of which $150 million may be used for issuances of letters of credit, is currently set to mature on September 16, 2026. The 2021 credit facility is available for working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes, including acquisitions and share repurchases. We have the option, subject to negotiation and agreement with the related banks, to increase the maximum commitment amount by an additional $1.0$1 billion.
Borrowings under the 2021 credit facility will bear interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR, and, for U.S. dollar-denominated loans under certain circumstances, a Base Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility), in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s long-term credit ratings assigned by the Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s rating agencies. The 2021 credit facility contains alternative interest rate provisions specifying rate calculations to be used at such time LIBOR ceases to be available as a benchmark due to reference rate reform. The “Base Rate” is the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility) plus 0.025%0.050%, (ii) Bank of America’s prime rate, and (iii) the Eurocurrency Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility) plus 1.025%1.000%.
The 2021 credit facility contains provisions requiring us to maintain compliance with certain covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, which measures our ability to cover financing expenses. As of January 2,April 3, 2022, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants. No amounts were outstanding under our 2021 credit facility as of January 2,April 3, 2022 or October 3, 2021.
Short-term Debt
Under our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $3 billion, with individual maturities that may vary but not exceed 397 days from the date of issue. Amounts outstanding under the commercial paper program are required to be backstopped by available commitments under our 2021 credit facility. The proceeds from borrowings under our commercial paper program may be used for working capital needs, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, business expansion, payment of cash dividends on our common stock and share repurchases. As of January 2,April 3, 2022 and October 3, 2021, we had $200 millionno borrowings outstanding under the program.
Additionally, we hold the following Japanese yen-denominated credit facilities that are available for working capital needs and capital expenditures within our Japanese market:
A ¥5 billion, or $43.4$41.1 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on December 31, 2022. Borrowings under such credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate ("TIBOR") plus an applicable margin of 0.400%.
A ¥10 billion, or $86.9$82.2 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on March 26, 2022.27, 2023. Borrowings under such credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on TIBOR plus an applicable margin of 0.350%.
As of January 2,April 3, 2022 and October 3, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding under these Japanese yen-denominated credit facilities.

Legal Proceedings
On April 13, 2010, an organization named Council for Education and Research on Toxics (“Plaintiff”) filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, against the Company and certain other defendants who manufacture, package, distribute or sell brewed coffee. The lawsuit is Council for Education and Research on Toxics v. Starbucks Corporation, et al. On May 9, 2011, the Plaintiff filed an additional lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, against the Company and additional defendants who manufacture, package, distribute or sell packaged coffee. The lawsuit is Council for Education and Research on Toxics v. Brad Barry LLC, et al. Both cases have since been consolidated and now include nearly eighty defendants, which constitute the majority of the coffee industry in California. Plaintiff alleges that the Company and the other defendants failed to provide warnings for their coffee products of exposure to the chemical acrylamide as required under California Health and Safety Code Section 25249.5, the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, better known as Proposition 65. Plaintiff seeks equitable relief, including providing warnings to consumers of coffee products, as well as civil penalties in the amount of the statutory maximum of two thousand five hundred dollars per day per violation of Proposition 65. The Plaintiff asserts that every consumed cup of coffee, absent a compliant warning, is equivalent to a violation under Proposition 65.
The Company, as part of a joint defense group organized to defend against the lawsuit, disputes the claims of the Plaintiff. Acrylamide is not added to coffee but is present in all coffee in small amounts (parts per billion) as a byproduct of the coffee bean roasting process. The Company has asserted multiple affirmative defenses. Trial of the first phase of the case (“Phase 1”)

October 15, 2018. However, on October 12, 2018, the California Court of Appeal granted the defendants’ request for a stay of the Phase 3 trial.
On June 3, 2019, the California Office of Administrative Law (OAL) approved the coffee exemption regulation. The regulation became effective on October 1, 2019. On June 24, 2019, the California Court of Appeal lifted the stay of the litigation. At the status conference on August 25, 2020, the trial judge granted the defendants’ motion for summary judgment, ruling that the coffee exemption regulation is a complete defense to the Plaintiff’s complaint. The Notice of Entry of Judgment from the court was served on October 6, 2020, and the Plaintiff filed a Notice of Appeal on November 20, 2020 and its opening brief in the appeals process on April 9, 2021.2021. Defendants filed their response brief on August 9, 2021, and Plaintiff filed a reply on November 15, 2021. Starbucks believes that the likelihood that the Company will ultimately incur a material loss in connection with this litigation is less than reasonably possible. Accordingly, as of January 2,April 3, 2022, no loss contingency has been recorded for this matter.
Starbucks is party to various other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including certain employment litigation cases that have been certified as class or collective actions, but, except as noted above, is not currently a party to any legal proceeding that management believes could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Development. Non-reportable operating segments such as Evolution Fresh and unallocated corporate expenses are reported within Corporate and Other.
We believe our financial results and long-term growth model will continue to be driven by new store openings, comparable store sales growth and operating margin management, underpinned by disciplined capital allocation. We believe these key operating metrics are useful to investors because management uses these metrics to assess the growth of our business and the effectiveness of our marketing and operational strategies. Throughout this MD&A, we commonly discuss the following key operating metrics:
New store openings and store count
Comparable store sales growth
Operating margin
Comparable store sales growth represents the percentage change in sales in one period from the same prior year period for company-operated stores open for 13 months or longer and exclude the impact of foreign currency translation. We analyze comparable store sales growth on a constant currency basis as this helps identify underlying business trends, without distortion from the effects of currency movements. Stores that are temporarily closed or operating at reduced hours due to the COVID-19 pandemic remain in comparable store sales while stores identified for permanent closure have been removed. Additionally, we monitor our two-year comparable sales metric based on a multiplicative basis(1) to better analyze our performance due to the adverse impacts from the pandemic.

Our fiscal 2022 year includes 52 weeks while our fiscal 2021 year included 53 weeks.weeks, with the 53rd week falling in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Net revenues for our Channel Development segment increased $46$93 million, or 12%25%, when compared with the firstsecond quarter of fiscal 2021.

Income from equity investees decreased $42$28 million, primarily due to the conversion of our Korea market from a joint venture to a fully licensed market in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 ($27 million).
The combination of these changes resulted in an overall decrease in operating margin of 240 basis points for the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

Revenues
North America total net revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 increased $807 million, or 17%, primarily due to a 12% increase in comparable store sales ($510 million) driven by a 7% increase in average ticket and a 5% increase in transactions. Also contributing to these increases were the performance of new stores compared to the closure of underperforming stores in prior year including stores related to our restructuring plan ($146 million) and higher product and equipment sales to and royalty revenues from our licensees ($139 million).
Operating Margin
North America operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 4% to $932 million, compared to $896 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. Operating margin decreased 220 basis points to 17.1%, primarily due to higher supply chain costs resulting from inflationary pressures (approximately 350 basis points), investments in labor including enhancements in retail store partner wages and benefits (approximately 280 basis points) and support costs to address labor market conditions (approximately 100 basis points) as well as lapping temporary subsidies provided by the CARES Act and CEWS (approximately 140 basis points). These were partially offset by sales leverage as well as pricing (approximately 390 basis points), sourcing savings (approximately 80 basis points), lower restructuring activity expenses (approximately 40 basis points) and benefits from the closure of lower-performing stores (approximately 40 basis points).

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Investment Overview
Our cash and investments totaled $4.4$4.3 billion as of January 2,April 3, 2022 and $6.9 billion as of October 3, 2021. We actively manage our cash and investments in order to internally fund operating needs, make scheduled interest and principal payments on our borrowings, make acquisitions and return cash to shareholders through common stock cash dividend payments and share repurchases. Our investment portfolio primarily includes highly liquid available-for-sale securities, including corporate debt securities and government treasury securities (foreign and domestic) and commercial paper.. As of January 2,April 3, 2022, approximately $3.0$2.9 billion of cash was held in foreign subsidiaries.
Borrowing Capacity
Revolving Credit Facility
Our $3 billion unsecured five-year revolving credit facility (the "2021 credit facility"), of which $150 million may be used for issuances of letters of credit, is currently set to mature on September 16, 2026. The 2021 credit facility is available for working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes, including acquisitions and share repurchases. We have the option, subject to negotiation and agreement with the related banks, to increase the maximum commitment amount by an additional $1.0 billion.
Borrowings under the 2021 credit facility will bear interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR, and, for U.S. dollar-denominated loans under certain circumstances, a Base Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility), in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s long-term credit ratings assigned by the Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s rating agencies. The 2021 credit facility contains alternative interest rate provisions specifying rate calculations to be used at such time LIBOR ceases to be available as a benchmark due to reference rate reform. The “Base Rate” is the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility) plus 0.025%0.050%, (ii) Bank of America’s prime rate and (iii) the Eurocurrency Rate (as defined in the 2021 credit facility) plus 1.025%1.000%.
The 2021 credit facility contains provisions requiring us to maintain compliance with certain covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, which measures our ability to cover financing expenses. As of January 2,April 3, 2022, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants. No amounts were outstanding under our 2021 credit facility as of January 2,April 3, 2022 or October 3, 2021.
Commercial Paper
Under our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $3.0 billion, with individual maturities that may vary but not exceed 397 days from the date of issue. Amounts outstanding under the commercial paper program are required to be backstopped by available commitments under the 2021 credit facility discussed above. The proceeds from borrowings under our commercial paper program may be used for

working capital needs, capital expenditures and other corporate purposes, including, but not limited to, business expansion, payment of cash dividends on our common stock and share repurchases. As of January 2,April 3, 2022 and October 3, 2021, we had $200.0 million

no borrowings outstanding under our commercial paper program. Our total contractual borrowing capacity for general corporate purposes was $2.8$3 billion as of the end of our firstsecond quarter of fiscal 2022.
Credit facilities in Japan
Additionally, we hold Japanese yen-denominated credit facilities for the use of our Japan subsidiary. These are available for working capital needs and capital expenditures within our Japanese market.
A ¥5 billion, or $43.4$41.1 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on December 31, 2022. Borrowings under such credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on TIBOR plus an applicable margin of 0.400%.
A ¥10 billion, or $86.9$82.2 million, credit facility is currently set to mature on March 26, 2022.27, 2023. Borrowings under such credit facility are subject to terms defined within the facility and will bear interest at a variable rate based on TIBOR plus an applicable margin of 0.350%.
As of January 2,April 3, 2022 and October 3, 2021, we had no borrowings outstanding under these Japanese yen-denominated credit facilities.
See Note 7, Debt, to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this 10-Q for details of the components of our long-term debt.
Our ability to incur new liens and conduct sale and leaseback transactions on certain material properties is subject to compliance with terms of the indentures under which the long-term notes were issued. As of January 2,April 3, 2022, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants.
Use of Cash
We expect to use our available cash and investments, including, but not limited to, additional potential future borrowings under the credit facilities, commercial paper program and the issuance of debt to support and invest in our core businesses, including investing in new ways to serve our customers and supporting our store partners, repaying maturing debts, as well as returning cash to shareholders through common stock cash dividend payments and discretionary share repurchases and investing in new business opportunities related to our core and developing businesses. Furthermore, we may use our available cash resources to make proportionate capital contributions to our investees. We may also seek strategic acquisitions to leverage existing capabilities and further build our business in support of our “Growth at Scale” agenda.business. Acquisitions may include increasing our ownership interests in our investees. Any decisions to increase such ownership interests will be driven by valuation and fit with our ownership strategy.
We believe that net future cash flows generated from operations and existing cash and investments both domestically and internationally combined with our ability to leverage our balance sheet through the issuance of debt will be sufficient to finance capital requirements for our core businesses as well as shareholder distributions for at least the foreseeable future. Significant new joint ventures, acquisitions and/next 12 months.

We have borrowed funds and continue to believe we have the ability to do so at reasonable interest rates; however, additional borrowings would result in increased interest expense in the future. In this regard, we may incur additional debt, within targeted levels, as part of our plans to fund our capital programs, including cash returns to shareholders through future dividends and discretionary share repurchases.repurchases as well as investing in new business opportunities. If necessary, we may pursue additional sources of financing, including both short-term and long-term borrowings and debt issuances.
We regularly review our cash positions and our determination of indefinite reinvestment of foreign earnings. In the event we determine that all or a portion of such foreign earnings are no longer indefinitely reinvested, we may be subject to additional foreign withholding taxes and U.S. state income taxes, which could be material. We do not anticipate the need for repatriated funds to the U.S. to satisfy domestic liquidity needs.
During the firstsecond quarter of fiscal 2022, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of $0.49 per share to be paid on February 25,May 27, 2022 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on February 11,May 13, 2022.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we resumed our share repurchase program which was temporarily suspended in March 2020. During the quartertwo quarters ended January 2,April 3, 2022, we repurchased 31.136.3 million shares of common stock for $3.5$4.0 billion. On March 15, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional 40 million shares under our ongoing share repurchase program. On April 4, 2022, we announced a temporary suspension of our share repurchase program to allow us to augment investments in our stores and partners. Repurchases pursuant to this program were last made on April 1, 2022. As of January 2,April 3, 2022, 17.852.6 million shares remained available for repurchase under current authorizations.

Cash Flows
Cash provided by operating activities was $1.9$2.0 billion for the first quartertwo quarters of fiscal 2022, compared to $1.8$2.7 billion for the same period in fiscal 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher net earnings, partially offset by lower losses on retirement and impairment of assets and increases in net cash used by changes in operating assets and liabilities.
Cash used in investing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 totaled $401 million, compared to cash used in investing activities of $273 million for the same period in fiscal 2021. The change was primarily due to anet cash used by changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by higher net earnings.
Cash used in investing activities for the first two quarters of fiscal 2022 totaled $881 million, compared to cash used in investing activities of $579 million for the same period in fiscal 2021. The change was primarily due to an increase in spend on capital expenditures.

Commodity Prices, Availability and General Risk Conditions
Commodity price risk represents our primary market risk, generated by our purchases of green coffee and dairy products, among other items. We purchase, roast and sell high-quality arabica coffee and related products and risk arises from the price volatility of green coffee. In addition to coffee, we also purchase significant amounts of dairy products to support the needs of our company-operated stores. The price and availability of these commodities directly impact our results of operations, and we expect commodity prices, particularly coffee, to impact future results of operations. For additional details, see Product Supply in Item 1 of the 10-K, as well as Risk Factors in Item 1A of the 10-K.
Seasonality and Quarterly Results
Our business is subject to moderate seasonal fluctuations, of which our fiscal second quarter typically experiences lower revenues and operating income. However, the COVID-19 pandemic may have an impact on consumer behaviors and customer traffic that result in changes in the seasonal fluctuations of our business. Additionally, as our stored value cards are issued to and loaded by customers during the holiday season, we tend to have higher cash flows from operations during the first quarter of the fiscal year. However, since revenues from our stored value cards are recognized upon redemption and not when cash is loaded, the impact of seasonal fluctuations on the consolidated statements of earnings is much less pronounced. As a result of moderate seasonal fluctuations, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates, to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this 10-Q, for a detailed description of recent accounting pronouncements.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There has been no material change in the commodity price risk, foreign currency exchange risk, equity security price risk or interest rate risk discussed in Item 7A of the 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During the firstsecond quarter of fiscal 2022, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our interim chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.

Table of Contents
Based upon that evaluation, our interim chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report (January 2,(April 3, 2022).
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Risk Factors in our first quarter 2022 Form 10-K,10-Q, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or future results.

Otherwise, except as presented below, thereThere have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our 2021 Form 10-K.
Changes in the availability of and the cost of labor could adversely affect our business.
Our business could be adversely impacted by increases in labor costs, including wages and benefits, which, in a retail business such as ours, are two of our most significant costs, both domestically and internationally, including those increases triggered by regulatory actions regarding wages, scheduling and benefits; increased health care and workers’ compensation insurance costs; increased wages and costs of other benefits necessary to attract and retain high quality employees with the right skill sets and increased wages, benefits and costs related to the COVID-19 pandemic and inflationary and other pressure on wages now being experienced. The growth of our business can make it increasingly difficult to locate and hire sufficient numbers of employees, to maintain an effective system of internal controls for a globally dispersed enterprise and to train employees worldwide to deliver a consistently high-quality product and customer experience, which could materially harm our business and results of operations. Furthermore, we have experienced, and could continue to experience, a shortage of labor for store positions, including due to concerns around and illnesses arising from COVID-19 and its various novel variants and other factors, which could decrease the pool of available qualified talent for key functions and require stores to operate on reduced hours. Such labor shortages could be further exacerbated by expanded federal, state and local COVID-19 vaccination requirements. In addition, our wages and benefits programs may be insufficient to attract and retain the best talent especially in a rising wage market. Furthermore, while the number of partners represented by unions is not significant, if a significant portion of our employees were to become unionized, our labor costs could increase10-K and our business could be negatively affected by other requirements and expectations that could increase our costs, change our employee culture, decrease our flexibility and disrupt our business. In December 2021, Starbucks partners at two stores in New York voted in favor of union representation and soon after stores in multiple jurisdictions across the United States have filed for unionization with the National Labor Relation Board with more that may follow. Further, our responses to any union organizing efforts could negatively impact how our brand is perceived and have adverse effects on our business, including on our financial results.first quarter 2022 Form 10-Q.
