| Segment Information |
2. Segment Information The Company has three reportable segments: (i) U.S. stores; (ii) supply chain; and (iii) international franchise. The Company’s operations are organized by management on the combined basis of line of business and geography. The U.S. stores segment includes operations with respect to all franchised and Company-owned stores throughout the U.S. The supply chain segment primarily includes the distribution of food and, to a lesser extent, other products, from the Company’s supply chain center operations in the U.S. and Canada. The international franchise segment includes operations related to the Company’s franchising business in foreign markets. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer, and beginning in the first quarter of 2026, he evaluates the performance of the Company’s segments and allocates resources to them based on Segment Adjusted Income from Operations which represents income from operations for the reportable segments, excluding gains and losses from the sale of assets, refranchising gains and losses and certain corporate administrative costs that have not been allocated to a reportable segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker uses Segment Adjusted Income from Operations to determine future business objectives and targets and for long-range planning for the reportable segments, as well as to evaluate their operating performance. The tables below summarize the financial information, including revenues, significant segment expenses, Segment Adjusted Income from Operations, capital expenditures and depreciation and amortization, concerning the Company’s reportable segments for the first quarters ended March 22, 2026 and March 23, 2025. Intersegment revenues are comprised of sales of food and, to a lesser extent, other products, from the supply chain segment to the Company-owned stores in the U.S. stores segment. Intersegment sales prices are market based.
