• Revenues increased $27.4 million, or 2.5%, in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher U.S. franchise advertising revenues, higher supply chain revenues and higher international franchise royalties and fees. U.S. franchise advertising revenues increased primarily as a result of a decrease in advertising incentives related to certain brand promotions and the return to the standard 6.0% advertising contribution rate at the beginning of the second quarter of 2024 following the end of the temporary reduction to 5.75%. The increase in supply chain revenues was primarily attributable to an increase in the Company's food basket pricing to stores, which increased 4.8% during the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024. This increase was partially offset by the transition of the Company's equipment and supplies business to a third-party supplier and a shift in the relative mix of products sold by the Company. The increase in international franchise royalties and fees was driven primarily by same store sales growth (excluding foreign currency impact) and net store growth during the trailing four quarters, but these increases were partially offset by the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rates on international franchise royalty revenues of $3.2 million.
• U.S. Company-owned store gross margin decreased 1.5 percentage points in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to the increase in the Company's food basket pricing to stores as described above, as well as lower sales leverage.
• Supply chain gross margin increased 0.5 percentage points in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to procurement productivity.
• Income from operations decreased $0.3 million, or 0.2%, in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024. Excluding the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rates on international franchise royalty revenues of $3.2 million, income from operations increased $2.9 million, or 1.4%, in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024. The increase in income from operations, excluding the negative impact of foreign currency exchange rates on international franchise royalty revenues, was primarily due to gross margin dollar growth within supply chain, as well as higher international franchise royalties and fees. These increases were partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses, primarily related to approximately $5 million in severance expenses associated with an organizational realignment that took place in the first quarter of 2025.
• Net income increased $23.8 million, or 18.9%, in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to a favorable change of $42.7 million in the pre-tax unrealized gains and losses associated with the remeasurement of the Company's investment in DPC Dash Ltd ("DPC Dash"). These increases were partially offset by higher provision for income taxes. The Company's provision for income taxes increased $19.0 million in the first quarter of 2025 due to a higher effective tax rate, as well as higher income before provision for income taxes. The effective tax rate increased to 22.3% in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to 15.9% in the first quarter of 2024, driven primarily by a 4.6 percentage point unfavorable change in the impact of excess tax benefits from equity-based compensation, as well as other rate and discrete items.
• Diluted EPS was $4.33 in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to $3.58 in the first quarter of 2024, representing a $0.75, or 21.0%, increase. The increase in diluted EPS in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the first quarter of 2024 was driven by higher net income and a lower weighted average diluted share count, resulting from the Company's share repurchases during the trailing four quarters.
• Net cash provided by operating activities was $179.1 million in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to $123.5 million in the first quarter of 2024. The Company spent $14.7 million on capital expenditures in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to $20.2 million in the first quarter of 2024, resulting in free cash flow of $164.4 million in the first quarter of 2025 as compared to $103.3 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in free cash flow was a result of the positive impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities, the timing and amount of receipts for advertising contributions and the timing and amount of payments for advertising activities and lower investments in capital expenditures. These increases were partially offset by lower net income, excluding the changes in the unrealized gains and losses associated with the remeasurement of the Company's investment in DPC Dash.

Quarterly Dividend

Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2025, on April 23, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors declared a $1.74 per share quarterly dividend on its outstanding common stock for shareholders of record as of June 13, 2025, to be paid on June 30, 2025.

Share Repurchases

During the first quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased and retired 115,280 shares of common stock for a total of $50.0 million. As of March 23, 2025, the Company had a total remaining authorized amount for share repurchases of $764.3 million.

Comments on Regulation G

In addition to the GAAP financial measures set forth in this press release, the Company has included non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G, including free cash flow, income from operations, excluding foreign currency impact and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA. The Company has also included metrics such as global retail sales, global retail sales growth (excluding foreign currency impact), same store sales growth, net store growth, food basket pricing change, impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on international franchise royalty revenues and the leverage ratio, which are commonly used statistical measures in the quick-service restaurant industry that are important to understanding Company performance.

The Company uses "global retail sales," a statistical measure, to refer to total worldwide retail sales at Company-owned and franchise stores. The Company believes global retail sales information is useful in analyzing revenues because franchisees pay royalties and advertising fees that are based on a percentage of franchise retail sales. The Company reviews comparable industry global retail sales information to assess business trends and to track the growth of the Domino's Pizza brand and believes they are indicative of the financial health of the Company's franchisee base. In addition, supply chain revenues are directly impacted by changes in franchise retail sales in the U.S. and Canada. As a result, sales by Domino's franchisees have a direct effect on the Company's profitability. Retail sales for franchise stores are reported to the Company by its franchisees and are not included in Company revenues. "Global retail sales growth" is calculated as the change of U.S. Dollar global retail sales against the comparable period of the prior year. "Global retail sales growth, excluding foreign currency impact" is calculated as the change of international local currency global retail sales against the comparable period of the prior year. Changes in global retail sales growth, excluding foreign currency impact, are primarily driven by same store sales growth and net store growth.

The Company uses "same store sales growth," a statistical measure, which is calculated by including only retail sales from stores that also had sales in the comparable weeks of both periods. International same store sales growth is calculated similarly to U.S. same store sales growth. Changes in international same store sales are reported excluding foreign currency impacts, which reflect changes in international local currency sales. Same store sales growth for transferred stores is reflected in their current classification.

The Company uses "net store growth," a statistical measure, which is calculated by netting gross store openings with gross store closures during the period. Transfers between Company-owned stores and franchised stores are excluded from the calculation of net store growth.

The Company uses "food basket pricing change," a statistical measure, which is calculated as the percentage change of the food basket (including both food and cardboard products) purchased by an average U.S. store (based on average weekly unit sales) from U.S. supply chain centers against the comparable period of the prior year. The Company believes that the food basket pricing change is important to investors and other interested persons to understand the Company's performance. As food basket prices fluctuate, revenues, cost of sales and gross margin percentages in the Company's supply chain segment also fluctuate. Additionally, cost of sales, gross margins and gross margin percentages for the Company's U.S. Company-owned stores also fluctuate.

The Company uses "free cash flow," which is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures, both as reported under GAAP. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP is net cash provided by operating activities. The Company believes that the free cash flow measure is important to investors and other interested persons, and that such persons benefit from having a measure which communicates how much cash flow is available for working capital needs or to be used for repurchasing debt, making acquisitions, repurchasing common stock or paying dividends.

The Company uses "income from operations, excluding foreign currency impact," which is calculated as income from operations as reported under GAAP, less the "impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on international franchise royalty revenues," a statistical measure. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP is income from operations. The impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on international franchise royalty revenues is calculated as the difference in international franchise royalty revenues resulting from translating current period local currency results to U.S. dollars at current period exchange rates as compared to prior period exchange rates. The Company believes that the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on international franchise royalty revenues is important to investors and other interested persons to understand the Company's international royalty revenues given the significant variability in those revenues and that can be driven by changes in foreign currency exchanges rates. International franchise royalty revenues do not have a cost of sales component, so changes in these revenues have a direct impact on income from operations.

The Company uses "Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA," which is calculated as Segment Income as defined by the Company under Accounting Standards Codification 280, Segment Reporting, less corporate administrative costs that have not been allocated to a reportable segment including labor, computer expenses, professional fees, travel and entertainment, rent, insurance and other corporate administrative costs. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is defined in the base indenture governing the Company's securitized debt. The Company uses Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to determine future business objectives and targets and for long-range planning, as well as to evaluate total Company operating performance for the purposes of determining certain variable performance-based compensation. The Company believes Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is a reliable barometer for the overall success of the Company. It is also used to calculate the leverage ratio (defined below), and other ratios defined in the indenture governing the Company's securitized debt. As such, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is important to investors and other interested persons to understand the financial performance of the Company, and to assess the ability of the Company to meet its financial obligations.

The Company uses the "leverage ratio¹," which is calculated as the Company's securitized debt related to its fixed-rate notes from the recapitalizations completed in 2021, 2019, 2018, 2017 and 2015 and borrowings under its variable funding notes, divided by Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA on a trailing four quarters basis. The Company has historically operated with a leverage ratio between four and six times. The Company reviews its leverage ratio on at least a quarterly basis and believes its leverage ratio is important to investors and other interested persons to understand the capital structure of the Company, and to assess the ability of the Company to meet its financial obligations.

The reconciliation of the leverage ratio for the first quarters of 2025 and 2024 is as follows below.
