(2)See non-GAAP Measures later in this release. Also see Tables Four and Five for details regarding the nature of adjustments.

•The increase in Total revenues was primarily due to: (i) higher comparable restaurant sales and (ii) the gift card breakage revenue change. These increases were partially offset by the net impact of restaurant closures and openings.

•GAAP operating income (loss) margin increased from Q3 2025 primarily due to: (i) lower impairment and closure costs, (ii) an increase in restaurant-level operating margin, as detailed below, and (iii) lapping general and administrative expenses related to transformational and restructuring initiatives and foreign currency forward contracts, partially offset by higher compensation expense.

•Restaurant-level operating margin increased from Q3 2025 primarily due to: (i) an increase in average check per person, primarily due to pricing, (ii) the gift card breakage revenue change and (iii) productivity initiatives. These impacts were partially offset by: (i) higher commodity, operating and labor costs, mainly due to inflation, and (ii) higher advertising expense.

•Adjusted operating income margin for Q3 2026 excludes the gift card breakage revenue change. For Q3 2025, adjusted operating income margin excludes: (i) certain impairment and closing costs, (ii) costs incurred as a result of transformational and restructuring initiatives and (iii) costs associated with foreign currency forward contracts.

Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, this press release and related tables include certain non-GAAP measures, which present operating results on an adjusted basis. These are supplemental measures of performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP and include: (i) Restaurant-level operating income, adjusted restaurant-level operating income and their corresponding margin, (ii) Adjusted income from operations and the corresponding margin, (iii) Adjusted segment income from operations and the corresponding margin, (iv) Adjusted net (loss) income and (v) Adjusted diluted (loss) earnings per share.

Restaurant-level operating margin is a non-GAAP financial measure widely regarded in the industry as a useful metric to evaluate restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance of ongoing restaurant-level operations, and we use it for these purposes.

We believe that our use of non-GAAP financial measures permits investors to assess the operating performance of our business relative to our performance based on GAAP results and relative to other companies within the restaurant industry by isolating the effects of certain items that may vary from period to period without correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. However, our inclusion of these adjusted measures should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items or that the items for which we have made adjustments are unusual or infrequent or will not recur. We believe that the disclosure of these non-GAAP measures is useful to investors as they form part of the basis for how our management team and Board of Directors evaluate our operating performance, allocate resources and administer employee incentive plans.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace GAAP financial measures, and they are not necessarily standardized or comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. We maintain internal guidelines with respect to the types of adjustments we include in our non-GAAP measures. These guidelines endeavor to differentiate between types of gains and expenses that are reflective of our core operations in a period, and those that may vary from period to period without correlation to our core performance in that period. However, implementation of these guidelines necessarily involves the application of judgment, and the treatment of any items not directly addressed by, or changes to, our guidelines will be considered by our disclosure committee. You should refer to the reconciliations of non-GAAP measures in Tables Four, Five and Six included later in this release for descriptions of the actual adjustments made in the current period and the corresponding prior period.

(1)We have, and in the future may continue to have, negative working capital balances (as is common for many restaurant companies). We operate successfully with negative working capital because cash collected on restaurant sales is typically received before payment is due on our current liabilities, and our inventory turnover rates require relatively low investment in inventories. Additionally, ongoing cash flows from restaurant operations and gift card sales are typically used to service debt obligations and to make capital expenditures.

(a)Franchise and other revenues, which are earned primarily from franchise royalties and other non-food and beverage revenue streams, such as rental and sublease income.

(b)Depreciation and amortization, which, although substantially all of which is related to restaurant-level assets, represent historical sunk costs rather than cash outlays for the restaurants.

(c)General and administrative expense, which includes primarily non-restaurant-level costs associated with support of the restaurants and other activities at our corporate office.

(d)Asset impairment charges, restaurant closing costs and disposal of assets.

(2)Represents an adjustment to gift card breakage revenue resulting from a change in accounting estimate.

(3)Represents costs associated with updated field PTO policy in connection with the transition to a new human resources and payroll system.

(2)The tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments is determined by recomputing the Income tax provision (benefit) on an adjusted basis. The difference between the recomputed Income tax provision (benefit) and the GAAP Income tax provision (benefit) represents the tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments. The thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2025 also include an adjustment to the Income tax benefit related to foreign currency gains on the Brazil Sale Transaction installment receivable.
