Executive summary
Total revenue for Q2 2025 was $125.8M, up 3% year-over-year, with net income of $7.1M, though system-wide comparable sales declined 0.3%.
Company-operated restaurant revenue increased 2% to $104.3M, driven by higher average check size, while franchise revenue rose 14.8% due to IT pass-through and new openings.
Brand relaunch, menu innovation, and targeted discounting drove positive system-wide traffic growth and margin expansion.
Labor and regulatory cost pressures were largely offset by menu price increases and productivity improvements.
Adjusted net income rose to $8.2M ($0.28/diluted share) and adjusted EBITDA increased to $18.5M.
Financial highlights
Restaurant contribution margin improved to 19.1% from 18.6% year-over-year.
Food and paper costs as a percentage of company sales decreased to 24.4–24.5% due to higher menu pricing and commodity deflation.
Labor expenses as a percentage of company sales decreased to 30.8% from efficiency gains and tech improvements.
G&A expenses rose to $13.5M, mainly from stock comp, legal, and restructuring costs.
Cash and cash equivalents were $9.0M, with $69.0M in debt at quarter-end.
Outlook and guidance
Plans to open 10–11 system-wide restaurants in 2025, including up to 1 company-operated and 9–10 franchised.
Capital spending projected at $31–34M; G&A expenses at $48–51M, excluding one-time charges.
Full-year restaurant contribution margin guidance maintained at 17.25%–17.75%.
Effective income tax rate estimated at 29–29.5% before discrete items.
55–65 restaurant remodels planned for the second half of 2025.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
