&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Driven Brands Holdings Inc. Unaudited and Pro Forma Estimated Recast of 2025 Unaudited Quarterly Financial Information Segment System-wide Sales, Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, Same-Store Sales, and Store Count (Unaudited, Proforma and Estimated, in millions of USD) Selected financial data by segment (unaudited) Fiscal quarters of 2025 ended March 29, June 28, and September 27, 2025 On January 27, 2026, Driven Brands Holdings Inc. (the "Company") announced the completion of the sale of its International Car Wash ("ICW") business. This resulted in corresponding changes to the Company's financial reportable segments. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company plans to report the results of ICW as discontinued operations. Prior to this change, the Company had three reportable segments: Take 5; Franchise Brands; and Car Wash. Our new reporting structure aligns with how the Company is now managing the business as a result of the ICW divestiture. Following these changes, starting in the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company's three operating and reportable segments are: (1) Take 5 - consisting of the Take 5 Oil Change business, including our supply distribution channel through Spire Supply. (2) Franchise Brands - consisting of our portfolio of franchised brands, which include CARSTAR, Meineke, Maaco, Uniban and 1-800 Radiator, among other smaller brands. These brands are over 99% franchised. (3) Auto Glass Now – consisting of our U.S. Retail, Commercial and Insurance glass businesses.
