The operating results of these majority-owned restaurants are consolidated and the portion of income attributable to noncontrolling interests is reflected in the line item net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

As of March 31, 2026 and April 1, 2025, we owned a 5.0% to 10.0% equity interest in 14 and 20 domestic franchise restaurants, respectively. These unconsolidated restaurants are accounted for using the equity method. Our investments in these unconsolidated affiliates are included in other assets in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, and we record our percentage share of net income earned by these unconsolidated affiliates under equity income from investments in unconsolidated affiliates in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

We have made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reporting of revenue and expenses during the periods to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of property and equipment, intangible assets, goodwill, lease liabilities and right-of-use assets, obligations related to insurance reserves, legal reserves, income taxes, and gift card breakage and fees. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, except that certain information and footnotes have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Operating results for the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 29, 2026. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2025.

Our significant interim accounting policies include the recognition of income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate.

**(2) Recent Accounting Pronouncements**

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2024-03, *Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.* This ASU primarily provides enhanced disclosures about the components of expenses within the income statement including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively for all periods presented. We are currently assessing the impact of this new standard on our disclosures and expect to provide additional detail and disclosures under this new guidance.

**(3) Long-term Debt**

On April 24, 2025, we entered into an agreement for a revolving credit facility (the "credit facility") with a syndicate of commercial lenders led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and PNC Bank, N.A. This credit facility superseded and replaced our previous credit facility.

The credit facility is an unsecured, revolving credit agreement and has a borrowing capacity of up to $450.0 million with the option to increase the capacity by an additional $250.0 million, subject to certain limitations, including approval by the syndicate of lenders. The credit facility has a maturity date of April 24, 2030.

We are required to pay interest on outstanding borrowings at the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), plus a fixed adjustment of 0.10% and a variable adjustment of 1.00% to 1.75% depending on our consolidated net leverage ratio.

As of March 31, 2026, we had $50.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the credit facility and had $397.6 million of availability, net of $2.4 million of outstanding letters of credit. As of December 30, 2025, we had no outstanding borrowings under the credit facility and had $447.6 million of availability, net of $2.4 million of outstanding letters of credit.

The interest rate on our current credit facility was 4.77% as of March 31, 2026. The interest rate on our previous credit facility was 5.37% as of April 1, 2025.

The lenders' obligation to extend credit pursuant to the credit facility depends on us maintaining certain financial covenants, including a minimum consolidated fixed charge ratio and a maximum consolidated leverage ratio. The credit facility permits us to incur additional secured or unsecured indebtedness, except for the incurrence of secured indebtedness that in the aggregate is equal to or greater than $125.0 million and 20% of our consolidated tangible net worth. We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of March 31, 2026.

**(4) Revenue**

The following table disaggregates our revenue by major source:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **13 Weeks Ended** | **13 Weeks Ended** |
|  | **March 31, 2026** | **April 1, 2025** |
| Restaurant and other sales | $1626689 | $1440342 |
| Royalties | 5953 | 6778 |
| Franchise fees | 524 | 528 |
| Total revenue | $1633166 | $1447648 |

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

The following table presents a rollforward of deferred revenue-gift cards:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **13 Weeks Ended** | **13 Weeks Ended** |
|  | **March 31, 2026** | **April 1, 2025** |
| Beginning balance | $448744 | $401198 |
| Gift card activations, net of third-party fees | 65274 | 57381 |
| Gift card redemptions and breakage | (183612) | (162827) |
| Ending balance | $330406 | $295752 |

---

We recognized restaurant sales of $153.1 million for the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026 related to amounts in deferred revenue as of December 30, 2025. We recognized restaurant sales of $139.2 million for the 13 weeks ended April 1, 2025 related to amounts in deferred revenue as of December 31, 2024.

**(5) Income Taxes**

The effective tax rate was 14.3% and 14.8% for the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026 and April 1, 2025, respectively. The decrease in the tax rate for the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the prior year period, was primarily due to an increase in the impact of the FICA tip tax credit partially offset by a decrease in the excess tax benefit on stock compensation, the expiration of the workers' opportunity tax credit, and an increase in non-deductible officers' compensation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**(6)** **Commitments and Contingencies** 

As of March 31, 2026 and December 30, 2025, we were contingently liable for $7.6 million and $7.8 million, respectively, for five lease guarantees. These amounts represent the maximum potential liability of future payments under the guarantees. In the event of default, the indemnity and default clauses in our assignment agreements govern our ability to pursue and recover damages incurred. No liabilities have been recorded as of March 31, 2026 and December 30, 2025, as the likelihood of default was deemed to be less than probable and the fair value of the guarantees is not considered significant.

During the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026, we bought our beef primarily from four suppliers who represent a significant portion of the total beef marketplace. If one of these vendors was unable to fulfill their obligations, we believe that the remaining suppliers could meet our needs by supplying comparable products at potentially higher costs. We have no material minimum purchase commitments with our vendors that extend beyond a year.

Occasionally, we are a defendant in litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, including "slip and fall" matters, employment related claims, dram shop statutes related to our service of alcohol, and claims from guests or employees alleging illness, injury or food quality, health, or operational concerns. None of these types of litigation, most of which are covered by insurance with varying retention levels, has had a material effect on us and, as of the date of this report, we are not party to any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business.

**(7) Acquisitions**

During the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026, we completed the acquisitions of five domestic franchise Texas Roadhouse restaurants of which a current officer of the Company had a 2% ownership interest in two of these restaurants. Pursuant to the terms of the acquisition agreements, we paid a total purchase price of $71.7 million, net of cash acquired.

These transactions were accounted for using the acquisition method as defined in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, *Business Combinations*. These acquisitions are consistent with our long-term strategy to increase net income and earnings per share.

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

The following table summarizes the consideration paid for these acquisitions, and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, which are adjusted for measurement-period adjustments through March 31, 2026.

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Current assets | $321 |
| Property and equipment | 20922 |
| Operating lease right-of-use assets | 15092 |
| Goodwill | 32730 |
| Intangible assets | 13090 |
| Other assets | 205 |
| Current portion of operating lease liabilities | (127) |
| Deferred revenue-gift cards | (816) |
| Operating lease liabilities, net of current portion | (9725) |
|  | $71692 |

---

The aggregate purchase price is preliminary as we are finalizing working capital adjustments. Intangible assets represent reacquired franchise rights which are being amortized over a weighted-average useful life of 5.5 years. All of the goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes and the goodwill reflects the benefit of sales and unit growth opportunities as well as the benefit of the assembled workforce of the acquired restaurants.

Pro forma financial detail and operating results have not been presented as the results of the acquired restaurants are not material to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the 52 weeks ended December 30, 2025, we completed the acquisition of 20 domestic franchise Texas Roadhouse restaurants. Pursuant to the terms of the acquisition agreements, we paid a total purchase price of $107.6 million, net of cash acquired.

These transactions were accounted for using the acquisition method as defined in ASC 805, *Business Combinations*. These acquisitions are consistent with our long-term strategy to increase net income and earnings per share.

The following table summarizes the consideration paid for these acquisitions, and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the acquisition dates, which are adjusted for final measurement-period adjustments.

| Noncontrolling interests | (3245) |
|  | $107614 |

---

Intangible assets represent reacquired franchise rights which are being amortized over a weighted-average useful life of 4.1 years. Goodwill totaling $65.5 million will be deductible for tax purposes and the goodwill reflects the benefit of sales and unit growth opportunities as well as the benefit of the assembled workforce of the acquired restaurants.

Pro forma financial detail and operating results have not been presented as the results of the acquired restaurants are not material to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

**(8) Related Party Transactions**

As of March 31, 2026, we had three franchise restaurants and one majority-owned company restaurant owned in part by current officers of the Company. For the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026, we recognized revenue of $0.4 million related to the three franchise restaurants. As of April 1, 2025, we had five franchise restaurants and one majority-owned company restaurant owned in part by current officers of the Company. For the 13 weeks ended April 1, 2025, we recognized revenue of $0.6 million related to the five franchise restaurants.

**(9) Earnings Per Share**

The share and net income per share data for all periods presented are based on the historical weighted-average shares outstanding. The diluted earnings per share calculations show the effect of the weighted-average restricted stock units outstanding from our equity incentive plans. Performance stock units are not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation until the performance-based criteria have been met.

For all periods presented, the weighted-average shares of nonvested stock units that were outstanding but not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they would have had an anti-dilutive effect were not significant.

The following table sets forth the calculation of earnings per share and weighted-average shares outstanding as presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income:

**(10) Fair Value Measurements**

As of March 31, 2026 and December 30, 2025, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximated their carrying values based on the short-term nature of these instruments. There were no transfers among levels within the fair value hierarchy during the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026.

The following table presents the fair values for our financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Fair Value Measurements** | **Fair Value Measurements** | **Fair Value Measurements** |
|  | **Level** | **March 31, 2026** | **December 30, 2025** |

| Deferred compensation plan—liabilities | 1 | $(136194) | $(134158) |
| Debt securities | 2 | $9332 | $4188 |

---

We report the accounts of the deferred compensation plan in other assets and the corresponding liability in other liabilities in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026, we transitioned a portion of the plan assets to company-owned life insurance contracts which are recorded at their cash surrender value. The remaining investments are trading securities which are recorded based on quoted market prices. The realized and unrealized holding gains and losses related to these investments, as well as the offsetting compensation

expense, are reported in general and administrative expense in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Debt security investments are held by our wholly-owned captive insurance company as collateral for certain insurance coverages. These investments, which are classified as available-for-sale, are primarily comprised of corporate bonds and are reported in other long-term assets in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of these investments is based on market values obtained from an independent third-party pricing service. Unrealized gains and losses related to these investments are reported in other comprehensive income in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

**(11) Stock Repurchase Programs**

On February 19, 2025, our Board of Directors (the "Board") approved a stock repurchase program under which we may repurchase up to $500.0 million of our common stock. This stock repurchase program commenced on February 24, 2025, has no expiration date, and replaced a previous stock repurchase program which was approved on March 17, 2022 that authorized the Company to repurchase up to $300.0 million of our common stock. All repurchases to date under our stock repurchase programs have been made through open market transactions. The timing and the amount of any repurchases are determined by management under parameters established by the Board, based on an evaluation of our stock price, market conditions, and other corporate considerations, including complying with Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and as applicable.

For the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026, we paid $28.2 million, excluding excise taxes, to repurchase 161,215 shares of our common stock. For the 13 weeks ended April 1, 2025, we paid $50.2 million, excluding excise taxes, to repurchase 281,091 shares of our common stock. This included $30.0 million repurchased under our prior authorization and $20.2 million repurchased under our current authorization. As of March 31, 2026, $351.8 million remained under our authorized stock repurchase program.

**(12) Segment Information**

The Chief Executive Officer is our chief operating decision maker (the "CODM"). The CODM assesses the performance of the business and allocates resources at the concept level and as a result we have identified Texas Roadhouse, Bubba's 33, and Jaggers as separate operating segments. In addition, we have identified our retail initiatives as a separate operating segment. Finally, we have identified Texas Roadhouse and Bubba's 33 as reportable segments. The Texas Roadhouse reportable segment includes the results of our company and franchise Texas Roadhouse restaurants. The Bubba's 33 reportable segment includes the results of our company Bubba's 33 restaurants. Our remaining operating segments, which include the results of our company and franchise Jaggers restaurants and the results of our retail initiatives, are included in Other. In addition, corporate-related assets, depreciation and amortization, and capital expenditures are also included in Other.

The CODM uses restaurant margin as the primary financial measure for assessing the performance of our segments. Restaurant margin represents restaurant and other sales less restaurant-level operating costs, including food and beverage costs, labor, rent, and other operating costs. Restaurant margin is also used by our CODM to evaluate core restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance, assist in the evaluation of operating trends over time, and in making capital allocation decisions. Capital allocation decisions include approving new store openings and the refurbishment, expansion, or relocation of existing restaurants.

In calculating restaurant margin, we exclude certain non-restaurant-level costs that support operations, including pre-opening and general and administrative expenses, but do not have a direct impact on restaurant-level operational efficiency and performance. We exclude pre-opening expenses as they occur at irregular intervals and would impact comparability to prior period results. We exclude depreciation and amortization expenses, substantially all of which relate to restaurant-level assets, as it represents a non-cash charge for the investment in our restaurants. We exclude impairment and closure expenses as we believe this provides a clearer perspective of the Company's ongoing operating performance and a more useful comparison to prior period results. Restaurant margin as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in our industry.

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

Restaurant and other sales for all operating segments are derived primarily from food and beverage sales. We do not rely on any major customer as a source of sales and the customers and assets of our reportable segments are located predominantly in the United States. There are no material transactions between reportable segments.

The following tables reconcile our segment results to our consolidated results reported in accordance with GAAP:

**Our Company** 

Texas Roadhouse, Inc. is a growing restaurant company operating predominantly in the casual dining segment. Our late founder, W. Kent Taylor, started the Company in 1993 with the opening of the first Texas Roadhouse restaurant in Clarksville, Indiana. Since then, we have grown to three concepts with 822 restaurants in 49 states, one U.S. territory, and ten foreign countries. As of March 31, 2026, our 822 restaurants included:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● 723 company restaurants, of which 703 were wholly-owned and 20 were majority-owned. The results of operations of company restaurants are included in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The portion of income attributable to noncontrolling interests in company restaurants that are majority-owned is reflected in the line item net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Of the 723 company restaurants, we operated 657 as Texas Roadhouse restaurants, 56 as Bubba's 33 restaurants, and 10 as Jaggers restaurants.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● 99 franchise restaurants, of which 14 we have a 5.0% to 10.0% ownership interest. The income derived from our minority interests in these franchise restaurants is reported in the line item equity income from investments in unconsolidated affiliates in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Of the 99 franchise restaurants, 31 were domestic Texas Roadhouse restaurants, six were domestic Jaggers restaurants, 61 were international Texas Roadhouse restaurants, including two restaurants in a U.S. territory, and one was an international Jaggers restaurant.

We have contractual arrangements that grant us the right to acquire at pre-determined formulas the equity interests in 18 of the 20 majority-owned company restaurants and 32 of the 37 systemwide domestic franchise restaurants.

Throughout this report, we use the term "restaurants" to include Texas Roadhouse and Bubba's 33, unless otherwise noted.

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

**Presentation of Financial and Operating Data**

Throughout this report, the 13 weeks ended March 31, 2026 and April 1, 2025, are referred to as Q1 2026 and Q1 2025, respectively. Fiscal year 2026 will be 52 weeks in length, with the quarters 13 weeks in length. Fiscal year 2025 was 52 weeks in length, with the quarters 13 weeks in length.

**Key Measures We Use to Evaluate Our Company**

Key measures we use to evaluate and assess our business include the following:

● *Comparable Restaurant Sales.* Comparable restaurant sales reflect the change in sales for all company restaurants across all concepts, unless otherwise noted, over the same period of the prior year for the comparable restaurant base. We define the comparable restaurant base to include those restaurants open for a full 18 months before the beginning of the period measured excluding restaurants permanently closed during the period, if applicable. Comparable restaurant sales can be impacted by changes in guest traffic counts or by changes in the per person average check amount. Menu price changes, the mix of menu items sold, and the mix of dine-in versus to-go sales can affect the per person average check amount.

● *Average Unit Volume.* Average unit volume represents the average quarterly, year-to-date, or annual restaurant sales for Texas Roadhouse and Bubba's 33 restaurants open for a full six months before the beginning of the period measured excluding sales of restaurants permanently closed during the period, if applicable. Historically, average unit volume growth is less than comparable restaurant sales growth which indicates that newer restaurants are operating with sales growth levels lower than the company average. At times, average unit volume growth may be more than comparable restaurant sales growth which indicates that newer restaurants are operating with sales growth levels higher than the company average.

● *Store Weeks and New Restaurant Openings.* Store weeks represent the number of weeks that all company restaurants across all concepts, unless otherwise noted, were open during the reporting period. Store weeks include weeks in which a restaurant is temporarily closed. Store week growth is driven by new restaurant openings and franchise acquisitions. New restaurant openings reflect the number of restaurants opened during a particular fiscal period, excluding store relocations. We consider store openings that occur simultaneously with a store closure in the same trade area to be a relocation.

● *Restaurant Margin.* Restaurant margin (in dollars, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, and per store week) represents restaurant and other sales less restaurant-level operating costs, including food and beverage costs, labor, rent, and other operating costs. Restaurant margin is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative, to income from operations. This non-GAAP measure is not indicative of overall company performance and profitability in that this measure does not accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders due to the nature of the costs excluded. Restaurant margin is widely regarded as a useful metric by which to evaluate core restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis.

In calculating restaurant margin, we exclude certain non-restaurant-level costs that support operations, including pre-opening and general and administrative expenses, but do not have a direct impact on restaurant-level operational efficiency and performance. We exclude pre-opening expenses as they occur at irregular intervals and would impact comparability to prior period results. We exclude depreciation and amortization expenses, substantially all of which relate to restaurant-level assets, as they represent a non-cash charge for the investment in our restaurants. We exclude impairment and closure expenses as we believe this provides a clearer perspective of the Company's ongoing operating performance and a more useful comparison to prior period results. Restaurant margin as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in our industry. A reconciliation of income from operations to restaurant margin is included in the Results of Operations section below.

**Other Key Definitions**

● *Restaurant and Other Sales.* Restaurant sales include gross food and beverage sales, net of promotions and discounts, for all company restaurants. Sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from restaurant sales in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Other sales primarily include the net impact of the amortization of third-party gift card fees and gift card breakage income and content revenue related to our tabletop kiosk devices.

● *Royalties and Franchise Fees.* Royalties consist of franchise royalties, as defined in our franchise agreement, paid to us by our domestic and international franchisees, as well as royalties related to our royalty-based retail products. Domestic and international franchisees also typically pay an initial franchise fee and/or development fee for each new restaurant or territory.

● *Food and Beverage Costs.* Food and beverage costs consist of the costs of raw materials and ingredients used in the preparation of food and beverage products sold in our company restaurants. Approximately half of our food and beverage costs relate to beef.

● *Restaurant Labor Expenses.* Restaurant labor expenses include all direct and indirect labor costs incurred in operations except for profit sharing incentive compensation expenses earned by our restaurant managing partners and market partners. These profit sharing expenses are reflected in restaurant other operating expenses. Restaurant labor expenses also include share-based compensation expense related to restaurant-level employees.

● *Restaurant Rent Expense.* Restaurant rent expense includes all rent, except pre-opening rent, associated with the leasing of real estate and includes base, percentage, and straight-line rent expense.

● *Restaurant Other Operating Expenses.* Restaurant other operating expenses consist of all other restaurant-level operating costs, the major components of which are supplies, utilities, profit sharing incentive compensation for our restaurant managing partners and market partners, credit card fees, general liability insurance, advertising, repairs and maintenance, property taxes, and outside services.

● *Pre-opening Expenses.* Pre-opening expenses, which are charged to operations as incurred, consist of expenses incurred before the opening of any new or relocated company restaurant and consist principally of opening and training team compensation and benefits, travel expenses, rent, food, beverage, and other initial supplies and expenses. The majority of pre-opening costs incurred relate to the hiring and training of employees due to the significant investment we make in training our people. Pre-opening costs vary by location and concept depending on a number of factors, including the size and physical layout of each location; the number of management and hourly employees required to operate each restaurant; the availability of qualified restaurant staff members; the cost of travel and lodging for different geographic areas; the timing of the restaurant opening; and the extent of unexpected delays, if any, in obtaining final licenses and permits to open each restaurant.

● *Depreciation and Amortization Expenses.* Depreciation and amortization expenses include the depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of intangibles with definite lives, substantially all of which relate to restaurant-level assets.

● *Impairment and Closure Costs, Net.* Impairment and closure costs, net include any impairment of long-lived assets, including property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, intangible assets, and goodwill, and expenses associated with the relocation or closure of a restaurant. Closure costs also include any gains or losses associated with the sale of a closed restaurant and/or assets held for sale.

● *General and Administrative Expenses.* General and administrative expenses comprise expenses associated with corporate and administrative functions that support development and restaurant operations and provide an infrastructure to support future growth. This includes salary, incentive-based, and share-based compensation

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

expense related to executive officers and Support Center employees, salary and share-based compensation expense related to regional and market partners, software hosting fees, professional fees, group insurance, and the realized and unrealized holding gains and losses related to the investments in our deferred compensation plan.

● *Interest Income, Net.* Interest income, net includes earnings on cash and cash equivalents and is reduced by interest expense, net of capitalized interest, on our debt or financing obligations including the amortization of loan fees, as applicable.

● *Equity Income from Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates.* Equity income includes our percentage share of net income earned by unconsolidated affiliates and our share of any gain on the acquisition of these affiliates. As of March 31, 2026, and April 1, 2025, we owned a 5.0% to 10.0% equity interest in 14 and 20 domestic franchise restaurants, respectively.

● *Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests.* Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represents the portion of income attributable to the other owners of our majority-owned restaurants. Our consolidated subsidiaries include 20 and 19 majority-owned restaurants as of March 31, 2026 and April 1, 2025, respectively.

**Q1 2026 Financial Highlights** 

Total revenue increased $185.5 million or 12.8% to $1,633.2 million in Q1 2026 compared to $1,447.6 million in Q1 2025 primarily due to increases in comparable restaurant sales and store weeks. Comparable restaurant sales and store weeks increased 7.1% and 5.7%, respectively, at company restaurants in Q1 2026 compared to Q1 2025. The increase in comparable restaurant sales was due to an increase in guest traffic along with an increase in per person average check. The increase in store weeks was due to new store openings and the acquisition of franchise restaurants.

Net income increased $9.8 million or 8.6% to $123.4 million in Q1 2026 compared to $113.7 million in Q1 2025 primarily due to higher restaurant margin dollars, as described below, partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization expenses and higher general and administrative expenses. Diluted earnings per share increased 9.6% to $1.87 in Q1 2026 from $1.70 in Q1 2025 due to the increase in net income and the impact of share repurchases.

Restaurant margin dollars increased $25.1 million or 10.5% to $264.4 million in Q1 2026 compared to $239.3 million in Q1 2025 primarily due to higher sales. Restaurant margin, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, decreased to 16.3% in Q1 2026 compared to 16.6% in Q1 2025. The decrease in restaurant margin, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, was primarily due to commodity inflation of 6.2% and wage and other labor inflation of 3.8% partially offset by higher sales.

Capital allocation spend included capital expenditures of $80.2 million, franchise acquisitions of $71.8 million, dividends of $49.4 million, and repurchases of common stock of $28.2 million.

**Q1 2026 compared to Q1 2025**

*Restaurant and Other Sales*

Restaurant and other sales increased 12.9% in Q1 2026 compared to Q1 2025. The following table summarizes certain key drivers and/or attributes of restaurant sales at company restaurants for the periods presented. Company restaurant count activity is shown in the restaurant unit activity table above.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Q1 2026** | **Q1 2025** |
| Company restaurants (all concepts): |  |  |
| Increase in store weeks | 5.7% | 7.1% |
| Increase in average unit volume  | 6.4% | 2.4% |
| Other | 0.8% | 0.1% |
| Total increase in restaurant and other sales | 12.9% | 9.6% |
| Store weeks | 9376 | 8870 |
| Comparable restaurant sales  | 7.1% | 3.5% |
| Texas Roadhouse restaurants: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Store weeks | 8518 | 8111 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Comparable restaurant sales  | 7.5% | 3.5% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Average unit volume (in thousands) | $2341 | $2190 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Weekly sales by group: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Comparable restaurants (619 and 580 units) | $181030 | $169279 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Average unit volume restaurants (23 and 28 units) (1) | $155344 | $138192 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Restaurants less than six months old (15 and 21 units) | $168119 | $157237 |
| Bubba's 33 restaurants: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Store weeks | 728 | 642 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Comparable restaurant sales | 0.9% | 3.9% |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Average unit volume (in thousands) | $1610 | $1592 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Weekly sales by group: |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Comparable restaurants (48 and 41 units) | $123624 | $123117 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Average unit volume restaurants (4 and 7 units) (1) | $126645 | $118709 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Restaurants less than six months old (4 and 2 units) | $148448 | $145011 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Average unit volume restaurants includes those open a full six to 18 months before the beginning of the period measured, excluding sales from restaurants permanently closed during the period, if applicable.

The increase in restaurant sales for Q1 2026 was primarily attributable to an increase in comparable restaurant sales and an increase in store weeks. The increase in comparable restaurant sales was driven by an increase in guest traffic count along with an increase in our per person average check as shown in the table below. The increase in store weeks was driven by new store openings and the acquisition of franchise restaurants.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Q1 2026** | **Q1 2025** |
| Guest traffic counts | 4.5% | 1.1% |
| Per person average check | 2.6% | 2.4% |
| Comparable restaurant sales | 7.1% | 3.5% |

---

To-go sales as a percentage of restaurant sales were 14.6% in Q1 2026 compared to 13.6% in Q1 2025.

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

Per person average check includes the benefit of a menu price increase of approximately 1.4% and 1.7% implemented in Q2 2025 and Q4 2025, respectively. In addition, we implemented a menu price increase of approximately 1.9% at the beginning of Q2 2026.

In Q1 2026, we opened four Texas Roadhouse company restaurants and acquired five domestic franchise Texas Roadhouse restaurants. In 2026, we expect store week growth of 5% to 6% across all concepts.

*Royalties and Franchise Fees*

Royalties and franchise fees decreased $0.8 million or 11.3% in Q1 2026 compared to Q1 2025. The decrease in Q1 2026 compared to Q1 2025 was primarily due to decreased royalties related to the franchise stores that were acquired.

*Food and Beverage Costs*

Food and beverage costs, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, increased to 35.3% in Q1 2026 compared to 34.1% in Q1 2025. The increase was primarily driven by commodity inflation of 6.2% in Q1 2026, due to higher beef costs, partially offset by the benefit of a higher average guest check.

In 2026, we expect commodity inflation of 6% to 7%, with prices locked for approximately 65% of our remaining forecasted costs and the remainder subject to floating market prices.

*Restaurant Labor Expenses*

Restaurant labor expenses, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, decreased to 32.9% in Q1 2026 compared to 33.3% in Q1 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by the benefit of a higher average guest check and labor productivity partially offset by wage and other labor inflation of 3.8% in Q1 2026.

In 2026, we expect wage and other labor inflation of 3% to 4%.

*Restaurant Rent Expense*

Restaurant rent expense, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, decreased to 1.5% in Q1 2026 compared to 1.6% in Q1 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by the increase in average unit volume partially offset by higher rent expense at our newer restaurants.

*Restaurant Other Operating Expenses* 

Restaurant other operating expenses, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, decreased to 14.0% in Q1 2026 compared to 14.4% in Q1 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by the increase in average unit volume and lower general liability insurance expense partially offset by higher credit card fees.

*Pre-opening Expenses*

Pre-opening expenses were $6.6 million in Q1 2026 compared to $6.8 million in Q1 2025. Pre-opening costs will fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on specific pre-opening costs incurred for each restaurant, the number and timing of restaurant openings, and the number and timing of restaurant managers hired.

*Depreciation and Amortization Expenses*

Depreciation and amortization expenses, as a percentage of total revenue, increased to 3.5% in Q1 2026 compared to 3.4% in Q1 2025. The increase was driven by higher depreciation expense at our newer restaurants and intangible asset amortization expense related to the acquisition of franchise restaurants partially offset by the increase in average unit volume.

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

*Impairment and Closure Costs, Net* 

Impairment and closure costs, net were not significant in Q1 2026 and Q1 2025.

*General and Administrative Expenses*

General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of total revenue, decreased to 3.7% in Q1 2026 compared to 3.9% in Q1 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by the increase in average unit volume and lower rent expense due to the purchase of our Support Center in 2025 partially offset by higher incentive and stock compensation expense.

*Interest Income, Net*

Interest income, net was $0.5 million in Q1 2026 compared to $1.3 million in Q1 2025. The decrease was driven by decreased earnings on our cash and cash equivalents and borrowings on our credit facility.

*Equity Income from Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates* 

Equity income was $0.1 million in Q1 2026 compared to $0.2 million Q1 2025. The decrease was driven by fewer affiliates due to the acquisition of six of these affiliates in the prior year.

*Income Tax Expense* 

Our effective tax rate was 14.3% in Q1 2026 compared to 14.8% in Q1 2025. The decrease in the tax rate was driven by an increase in the impact of the FICA tip tax credit partially offset by a decrease in the excess tax benefit on stock compensation, the expiration of the workers' opportunity tax credit, and an increase in non-deductible officers' compensation.

In 2026, we expect an effective tax rate of 14% to 15% based on forecasted operating results.

*Segment Information* 

We manage our restaurant and franchising operations by concept and as a result have identified Texas Roadhouse, Bubba's 33, Jaggers, and our retail initiatives as separate operating segments. Our reportable segments are Texas Roadhouse and Bubba's 33. The Texas Roadhouse reportable segment includes the results of our company Texas Roadhouse restaurants and domestic and international franchise Texas Roadhouse restaurants. The Bubba's 33 reportable segment includes the results of our domestic company Bubba's 33 restaurants. Our remaining operating segments, which include the results of our company and franchise Jaggers restaurants and the results of our retail initiatives, are included in Other. In addition, corporate-related assets, depreciation and amortization, and capital expenditures are also included in Other.

The CODM uses restaurant margin as the primary measure for assessing performance of our segments. Restaurant margin (in dollars and as a percentage of restaurant and other sales) represents restaurant and other sales less restaurant-level operating costs, including food and beverage costs, labor, rent, and other operating costs. Restaurant margin is used by our CODM to evaluate core restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance, assist in the evaluation of operating trends over time, and in making capital allocation decisions. Capital allocation decisions include approving new store openings and the refurbishment, expansion, or relocation of existing restaurants. A reconciliation of income from operations to restaurant margin is included in the Results of Operations section above.

| Total | $264429 | 16.3% | $239284 | 16.6% |

---

In our Texas Roadhouse reportable segment, restaurant margin dollars increased $23.9 million or 10.6% in Q1 2026. The increase was due to higher sales partially offset by higher food and beverage costs due to commodity inflation. In addition, restaurant margin, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, decreased to 16.3% in Q1 2026 from 16.7% in Q1 2025. Restaurant margin percentage was primarily impacted by commodity inflation partially offset by higher sales.

In our Bubba's 33 reportable segment, restaurant margin dollars increased $1.2 million or 9.6% in Q1 2026. The increase was due to higher sales partially offset by higher food and beverage costs and an increase in general liability insurance expense. In addition, restaurant margin, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, decreased to 15.2% in Q1 2026 from 16.1% in Q1 2025. Restaurant margin percentage was primarily impacted by the increased expenses noted above, which were partially offset by higher sales.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources**

The following table presents a summary of our net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities (in thousands):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **13 Weeks Ended** | **13 Weeks Ended** |
|  | **March 31, 2026** | **April 1, 2025** |
| Net cash provided by operating activities | $259080 | $237740 |
| Net cash used in investing activities | (146753) | (155557) |
| Net cash used in financing activities | (32475) | (106323) |
| Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents | $79852 | $(24140) |

---

Net cash provided by operating activities was $259.1 million in Q1 2026 compared to $237.7 million in Q1 2025. This increase was primarily due to increases in net income, depreciation and amortization expenses, and deferred income taxes partially offset by an unfavorable change in working capital.

Our operations have not required significant working capital and, like many restaurant companies, we have been able to operate with negative working capital, if necessary. Sales are primarily for cash, and restaurant operations do not require significant inventories or receivables. In addition, we receive trade credit for the purchase of food, beverages, and supplies, thereby reducing the need for incremental working capital to support growth.

Net cash used in investing activities was $146.8 million in Q1 2026 compared to $155.6 million in Q1 2025. The decrease was primarily due to proceeds from sale leaseback transactions in Q1 2026.

We require capital principally for the development of new company restaurants, the refurbishment or relocation of existing restaurants, and the acquisition of franchise restaurants. We either lease our restaurant site locations under operating leases for periods of five to 30 years (including renewal periods) or purchase the land when appropriate. As of March 31, 2026, we had developed 156 of the 723 company restaurants on land that we own.

The following table presents a summary of capital expenditures (in thousands):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **13 Weeks Ended** | **13 Weeks Ended** |
|  | **March 31, 2026** | **April 1, 2025** |
| New company restaurants | $55013 | $36877 |
| Refurbishment or expansion of existing restaurants | 21181 | 24467 |
| Relocation of existing restaurants | 1908 | 13864 |
| Capital expenditures related to Support Center office | 2063 | 2181 |
| Total capital expenditures | $80165 | $77389 |

---

Our future capital requirements will primarily depend on the number and mix of new restaurants we open, the timing of those openings, the restaurant prototype developed in a given fiscal year, and potential franchise acquisitions. These requirements will include costs directly related to opening, maintaining, or relocating restaurants and may also include costs necessary to ensure that our infrastructure is able to support a larger restaurant base.

We intend to satisfy our capital requirements over the next 12 months with cash on hand, net cash provided by operating activities and, if needed, funds available under our revolving credit facility. In 2026, we expect capital expenditures of approximately $400 million.

Net cash used in financing activities was $32.5 million in Q1 2026 compared to $106.3 million in Q1 2025. The decrease was primarily due to borrowing $50.0 million on our credit facility and a decrease in share repurchases.

On February 18, 2026, our Board approved the payment of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.75 per share of common stock compared to the quarterly dividend of $0.68 per share of common stock declared in 2025. The payment of quarterly dividends totaled $49.4 million and $45.2 million in Q1 2026 and Q1 2025, respectively.

On May 6, 2026, our Board approved the payment of the Q2 2026 cash dividend of $0.75 per share of common stock. This payment will be distributed on June 30, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on June 2, 2026.

On February 19, 2025, our Board approved a stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $500.0 million of our common stock. This stock repurchase program has no expiration date and replaces the previous stock repurchase program which was approved in 2022.

During Q1 2026, we paid $28.2 million, excluding excise taxes, to repurchase 161,215 shares of our common stock. During Q1 2025, we paid $50.2 million, excluding excise taxes, to repurchase 281,091 shares of our common stock. As of March 31, 2026, $351.8 million remained under our authorized stock repurchase program.

On April 24, 2025, we entered into an agreement for a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of commercial lenders led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and PNC Bank, N.A. This credit facility superseded and replaced our previous credit facility.

The credit facility is an unsecured, revolving credit agreement and has a borrowing capacity of up to $450.0 million with the option to increase the capacity by an additional $250.0 million subject to certain limitations, including approval by the syndicate of commercial lenders. The credit facility has a maturity date of April 24, 2030.

As of March 31, 2026, we had $50.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the credit facility and had $397.6 million of availability, net of $2.4 million of outstanding letters of credit, respectively. As of December 30, 2025, we had no outstanding borrowings under the previous credit facility and had $447.6 million of availability, net of $2.4 million of outstanding letters of credit.

The interest rate on our current credit facility was 4.77% as of March 31, 2026. The interest rate on our previous credit facility was 5.37% as of April 1, 2025.

The lenders' obligation to extend credit pursuant to the credit facility depends on us maintaining certain financial covenants, including a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio and a maximum consolidated leverage ratio. The credit facility permits us to incur additional secured or unsecured indebtedness, except for the incurrence of secured indebtedness that in the aggregate is equal to or greater than $125.0 million and 20% of our consolidated tangible net worth. We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of March 31, 2026.

**Guarantees**

As of March 31, 2026 and December 30, 2025, we were contingently liable for $7.6 million and $7.8 million, respectively, for five lease guarantees. These amounts represent the maximum potential liability of future payments under the guarantees. In the event of default, the indemnity and default clauses in our assignment agreements govern our ability to pursue and recover damages incurred. No material liabilities have been recorded as of March 31, 2026 and December 30, 2025 as the likelihood of default was deemed to be less than probable and the fair value of the guarantees is not considered significant.
