JACK IN THE BOX INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

**1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION**

***Nature of operations*** — Jack in the Box Inc. (the "Company"), together with its consolidated subsidiaries, develops, operates, and franchises quick-service restaurants under the Jack in the Box<sup>®</sup> and Del Taco<sup>®</sup> restaurant brands.

As of July 6, 2025, there were 142 company-operated and 2,026 franchise-operated Jack in the Box restaurants and 132 company-operated and 453 franchise-operated Del Taco restaurants.

References to the Company throughout these notes to condensed consolidated financial statements are made using the first person notations of "we," "us" and "our."

***Basis of presentation*** — The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024 ("2024 Form 10-K"). The accounting policies used in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those described in our 2024 Form 10-K.

In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition and results of operations for these interim periods have been included. Operating results for one interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other interim period or for the full year.

***Reclassification*** — Certain amounts in the prior periods' financial statements and related footnote disclosures have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation with no impact on previously reported net income or stockholders' equity.

***Fiscal year*** — The Company's fiscal year is 52 or 53 weeks ending the Sunday closest to September 30. Both fiscal years 2025 and 2024 include 52 weeks. Our first quarter includes 16 weeks and all other quarters include 12 weeks. All comparisons between 2025 and 2024 refer to the 12 weeks ("quarter") and 40 weeks ("year-to-date") ended July 6, 2025 and July 7, 2024, respectively, unless otherwise indicated.

***Use of estimates*** — In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make certain assumptions and estimates that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and the disclosure of contingencies. In making these assumptions and estimates, management may from time to time seek advice and consider information provided by actuaries and other experts in a particular area. Actual amounts could differ materially from these estimates.

***Advertising costs*** — The Company administers marketing funds at each of its restaurant brands that include contractual contributions. In 2025 and 2024, marketing fund contributions from Jack in the Box franchise and company-operated restaurants were approximately 5.0% of sales, and marketing fund contributions from Del Taco franchise and company-operated restaurants were approximately 4.0% of sales.

Contributions made by the Company are included in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings (loss). For the year-to-date periods in 2025 and 2024, consolidated advertising costs were $25.8 million and $26.4 million, respectively.

***Allowance for credit losses*** — The Company closely monitors the financial condition of our franchisees and estimates the allowance for credit losses based on the lifetime expected loss on receivables. These estimates are based on historical collection experience with our franchisees as well as other factors, including current market conditions and events. Credit quality is monitored through the timing of payments compared to predefined aging criteria and known facts regarding the financial condition of the franchisee or customer. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after recovery efforts have ceased. The Company's allowance for doubtful accounts has not historically been material.

The following table summarizes the activity in the allowance for doubtful accounts *(in thousands)*:

JACK IN THE BOX INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

***Goodwill and trademarks*** — Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, if any. We generally record goodwill in connection with the acquisition of restaurants from franchisees or the acquisition of another business. Likewise, upon the sale of restaurants to franchisees, goodwill is decremented. The amount of goodwill written-off is determined as the fair value of the business disposed of as a percentage of the fair value of the reporting unit prior to the disposal. If the business disposed of was never fully integrated into the reporting unit after its acquisition, and thus the benefits of the acquired goodwill were never realized, the current carrying amount of the acquired goodwill is written off.

Goodwill is not amortized and has been assigned to reporting units for purposes of impairment testing. The Company's two restaurant brands, Jack in the Box and Del Taco, are both operating segments and reporting units. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment by determining whether the fair value of our reporting units exceed their carrying values.

The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, or more frequently if events and circumstances warrant. The Company performs this testing during the third quarter of each year.

Our impairment analyses first includes a qualitative assessment to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Significant factors considered in this assessment include, but are not limited to, macro-economic conditions, market and industry conditions, cost considerations, the competitive environment, share price fluctuations, overall financial performance, and results of past impairment tests. If the qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value, we perform a quantitative impairment test. Refer also to Note 5, *Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net,* in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for results of these tests and for additional information.

***Recent accounting pronouncements*** — In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, *Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure*, which updates reportable segment disclosure requirements. The ASU primarily requires enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used to assess segment performance and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this pronouncement in its Form 10-K for fiscal year ended September 28, 2025, but does not expect this pronouncement to have a significant impact.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, I*ncome Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*, which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity's effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. The Company does not expect this pronouncement to have a significant impact.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, *Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*. ASU 2024-03 requires public companies to disclose, in the notes to financial statements, specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. Additionally, companies will need to disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity's definition of selling expenses. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2024-03 should be applied prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods beginning after the effective date but entities may elect to apply the ASU retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

**2. REVENUE**

***Nature of products and services*** — The Company derives revenue from retail sales at Jack in the Box and Del Taco company-operated restaurants and rental revenue, royalties, advertising, and franchise and other fees from franchise-operated restaurants.

Our franchise arrangements generally provide for an initial franchise fee per restaurant for a 20-year term, and generally require that franchisees pay royalty and marketing fees based upon a percentage of gross sales. The agreements also require franchisees to pay technology fees, as well as sourcing fees for franchise agreements for both brands.

***Contract liabilities*** — Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue resulting from initial franchise and development fees received from franchisees for new restaurant openings or new franchise terms, which are recognized over the franchise term. The Company classifies these contract liabilities as "Accrued liabilities" and "Other long-term liabilities" in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

A summary of significant changes in contract liabilities is presented below *(in thousands)*:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year-to-date** | **Year-to-date** |

| Additions | 2001 | 4243 |
| Deferred franchise and development fees at end of period | $49335 | $50224 |

---

As of July 6, 2025, approximately $8.8 million of development fees related to unopened restaurants are included in deferred revenue. Timing of revenue recognition for development fees related to unopened restaurants is dependent upon the timing of restaurant openings and are recognized over the franchise term at the date of opening.

During the third quarter of the prior year, the Company had identified triggering events that indicated the goodwill allocated to the Del Taco reporting unit might be impaired. As a result, the Company performed a quantitative test over the Del Taco reporting unit, noting that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than the carrying value, which resulted in an impairment of goodwill of $162.6 million in the third quarter of 2024.

During the second quarter of 2025, the Company had identified additional triggering events that indicated the goodwill allocated to the Del Taco reporting unit might be further impaired, including i) continued negative trend in Del Taco same store sales, ii) unfavorable changes in the economic environment specifically impacting our industry, including inflation and interest rates, iii) the potential for a divestment of Del Taco, and iv) a sustained lower share price. As a result, the Company performed a quantitative test over the Del Taco reporting unit, noting that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than the carrying value, which resulted in an impairment of goodwill of $25.3 million in the second quarter of 2025. The valuation used a blended approach with a discounted cash flow analysis in conjunction with a market approach. Assumptions and estimates used in determining fair value include future revenues, operating costs, new store openings, capital expenditures, a discount rate that approximates the Company's weighted average cost of capital and a selection of comparable companies. The Company determined that there was no such triggering event for the Jack in the Box reporting unit.

**6. LEASES**

***Nature of leases —*** The Company owns restaurant sites and also leases restaurant sites from third parties. Some of these owned or leased sites are leased and/or subleased to franchisees. Initial terms of our real estate leases are generally 20 years, exclusive of options to renew, which are generally exercisable at our sole discretion for 1 to 20 years. In some instances, our leases have provisions for contingent rentals based upon a percentage of defined revenues. Many of our restaurants also have rent escalation clauses and require the payment of property taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs. Variable lease costs include contingent rent, cost-of-living index adjustments, and payments for additional rent such as real estate taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance, which are excluded from the measurement of the lease liability.

As lessor, our leases and subleases primarily consist of restaurants that have been leased to franchisees in connection with refranchising transactions. Revenues from leasing arrangements with our franchisees are presented in "Franchise rental revenues" in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of earnings (loss), and the related expenses are presented in "Franchise occupancy expenses."

The fair value of the Class A-2 Notes was estimated using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices in markets that are not considered active markets.

***Non-financial assets and liabilities*** — The Company's non-financial instruments, which primarily consist of property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, goodwill and intangible assets, are reported at carrying value and are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, on an annual basis, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable, non-financial instruments are assessed for impairment. If applicable, the carrying values are written down to fair value.

In connection with our impairment reviews performed during 2025 and 2024, the Company impaired certain Del Taco assets. For further information, see Note 3, *Summary of Refranchisings and Assets Held For Sale*, Note 5, *Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net*, and Note 8, *Other Operating Expenses, Net* in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

____________________________

(1)Integration and strategic initiatives mainly relate to the integration of Del Taco in both years, as well as strategic consulting fees in 2024.

(2)Costs of closed restaurants and other generally includes ongoing costs associated with closed restaurants and cancelled project costs.

(3)Restaurant impairment charges in 2025 are related to underperforming Del Taco and Jack in the Box restaurants.

(4)The 2024 amount relates to the gains on acquisition of 9 Del Taco restaurants. Refer also to Note 4, *Franchise Acquisitions,* in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information.

(5)In 2024, loss on disposition of property and equipment primarily related to the lease termination and early closures of Del Taco restaurants. In 2025, the amount is primarily related to reimage projects.

**9. SEGMENT REPORTING**

The Company's principal business consists of developing, operating and franchising our Jack in the Box and Del Taco restaurant brands, each of which is considered a reportable operating segment. The company also utilizes a shared-services model whereby each brand's results of operations are assessed separately and do not include costs related to certain corporate functions which support both brands. The segment reporting structure reflects the Company's current management structure, internal reporting method and financial information used in deciding how to allocate Company resources. Based upon certain quantitative thresholds, each operating segment is considered a reportable segment. This segment reporting is in line with our reporting units for goodwill.

The Company measures and evaluates its segments based on segment revenues and segment profit. The reportable segments do not include an allocation of the costs related to shared service functions, such as accounting/finance, human resources, audit services, legal, tax and treasury; nor do they include certain unallocated costs such as share-based compensation. These costs are reflected in the caption "Shared services and unallocated costs."

Beginning in 2025, the Company's measure of segment profit was updated to exclude all of the following items: depreciation and amortization, net other operating expenses, net company-owned life insurance ("COLI") gains, (gains) losses on the sale of company-operated restaurants, net amortization of favorable and unfavorable leases and subleases, amortization of franchise tenant improvement allowances and other, and amortization of cloud-computing costs. Amounts in fiscal year 2024 have been adjusted to reflect the current presentation.

The Company does not evaluate, manage or measure performance of segments using asset, pension or post-retirement expense, interest income and expense, or income tax information; accordingly, this information by segment is not prepared or disclosed.

**10. INCOME TAXES**

For the third quarter of and year-to-date of fiscal year 2025, the Company recorded income tax benefits of $0.5 million and $20.8 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (2.4%) and 19.3%, respectively. The effective tax rates for such periods differed from the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to non-deductible goodwill impairment partially offset by non-taxable gains from the market performance of insurance products used to fund certain non-qualified retirement plans.

For the third quarter of and year-to-date of fiscal year 2024, the Company recorded income tax expenses of $0.1 million and $23.3 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (0.1%) and (66.0%), respectively. The effective tax rates for such periods differed from the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to the impairment of non-deductible goodwill, partially offset by the reversal of state deferred tax liabilities on basis difference of investments in subsidiaries and non-taxable gains from the market performance of insurance products used to fund certain non-qualified retirement plans.

Under GAAP, the Company ordinarily calculates its provision for income taxes at the end of each interim reporting period by computing an estimated annual effective tax rate adjusted for tax items that are discrete to each period. For the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company calculated its interim tax provision based on actual year-to-date results because small changes in forecasted pre-tax book income led to large differences in the estimated annual effective tax rate.

On July 4, 2025, H.R.1 (the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act") was enacted into law. The Company is continuing to evaluate the potential implications of the legislation. Based on its preliminary assessment, the Company did not identify any material impacts to its provision for income taxes in the period of enactment.

**11. RETIREMENT PLANS**

***Defined benefit pension plans*** — The Company sponsors two defined benefit pension plans, a frozen "Qualified Plan" covering substantially all full-time employees hired prior to January 1, 2011, and an unfunded supplemental executive retirement plan ("SERP") which provides certain employees additional pension benefits and was closed to new participants effective January 1, 2007. Benefits under both plans are based on the employee's years of service and compensation over defined periods of employment.

***Post-retirement healthcare plans*** — The Company also sponsors two healthcare plans, closed to new participants, that provide post-retirement medical benefits to certain employees who have met minimum age and service requirements. The plans are contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually, and they contain other cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance.

***Future cash flows*** — The Company's policy is to fund our plans at or above the minimum required by law. As of the date of our last actuarial funding valuation, there was no minimum contribution funding requirement for the Qualified Plan. Details regarding 2025 contributions are as follows (*in thousands*):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **SERP** | **Post-Retirement<br>Healthcare Plans** |
| Net year-to-date contributions | $4361 | $1009 |
| Remaining estimated net contributions during fiscal 2025 | $764 | $130 |

The Company continues to evaluate contributions to our Qualified Plan based on changes in pension assets as a result of asset performance in the current market and the economic environment. The Company does not anticipate making any contributions to our Qualified Plan in fiscal 2025.

**12. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY AND REPURCHASES OF COMMON STOCK**

***Repurchases of common stock*** *—* The Company repurchased 0.1 million shares of its common stock in the year-to-date period ended July 6, 2025 for an aggregate cost of $5.0 million, including applicable excise tax. As of July 6, 2025, there was $175.0 million remaining under share repurchase programs authorized by the Board of Directors which does not expire.

***Dividends*** — Through July 6, 2025, the Board of Directors declared two cash dividends of $0.44 per common share totaling $16.7 million. Future dividends are discontinued and the Company will direct a majority of those funds toward debt reductions.

***Stockholder Rights Plan*** — On July 1, 2025, the Board of Directors adopted a limited-duration stockholder rights plan and declared a dividend of one right (a "Right") for each outstanding share of the Company's common stock held of record at the close of business on July 14, 2025. The Rights will generally become exercisable if a person or group acquires beneficial ownership of 12.5% or more of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for existing persons who own in excess of such triggering percentage and do not acquire additional shares of the Company's common stock). If the Rights become exercisable, all holders of Rights (other than the triggering person or group) will be entitled to purchase shares of the Company's common stock at a 50% discount to the then-current market price or the Company may exchange each Right held by such holders for one share of the Company's common stock. The terms of the Rights are set forth in the Stockholder Protection Rights Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2025, by and between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agent (the "Rights Agreement"). The Rights will expire on July 1, 2026, unless the Rights are earlier redeemed, or the Rights Agreement is terminated, by the Board of Directors.

**14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES**

***Legal matters*** — The Company assesses contingencies, including litigation contingencies, to determine the degree of probability and range of possible loss for potential accrual in our financial statements. An estimated loss contingency is accrued in the financial statements if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. As of July 6, 2025, the Company had accruals of $18.8 million for all of its legal matters in aggregate, presented within "Accrued liabilities" on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable, assessing contingencies is highly subjective and requires judgments about future events. When evaluating litigation contingencies, we may be unable to provide a meaningful estimate due to a number of factors, including the procedural status of the matter in question, the availability of appellate remedies, insurance coverage related to the claim or claims in question, the presence of complex or novel legal theories, and the ongoing discovery and development of information important to the matter. In addition, damage amounts claimed in litigation against us may be unsupported, exaggerated, or unrelated to possible outcomes, and as such are not meaningful indicators of our potential liability or financial exposure. The Company regularly reviews contingencies to determine the adequacy of the accruals and related disclosures. The ultimate amount of loss may differ from these estimates. Any estimate is not an indication of expected loss, if any, or of the Company's maximum possible loss exposure and the ultimate amount of loss may differ materially from these estimates in the near term.

***Gessele v. Jack in the Box Inc.*** — In August 2010, five former Jack in the Box employees instituted litigation in federal court in Oregon alleging claims under the federal Fair Labor Standards Act and Oregon wage and hour laws. The plaintiffs alleged that Jack in the Box failed to pay non-exempt employees for certain meal breaks and improperly made payroll deductions for shoe purchases and for workers' compensation expenses, and later added additional claims relating to timing of final pay and related wage and hour claims involving employees of a franchisee. In 2016, the court dismissed the federal claims and those relating to franchise employees. In June 2017, the court granted class certification with respect to state law claims of improper deductions and late payment of final wages. The parties participated in a voluntary mediation on March 16, 2020, but the matter did not settle. On October 24, 2022, a jury awarded plaintiffs approximately $6.4 million in damages and penalties. The Company continues to dispute liability and the damage award and both parties have filed appeals of the verdict. As of July 6, 2025, the Company has accrued the verdict amount above, as well as estimated prejudgment and post-judgment interest and fee award, for an additional $9.9 million. These amounts are included within "Accrued liabilities" on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 6, 2025. The Company will continue to accrue for post-judgment interest until the matter is resolved.

***J&D Restaurant Group*** — On April 17, 2019, the trustee for a bankrupt former franchisee filed a complaint generally alleging the Company wrongfully terminated the franchise agreements and unreasonably denied two prospective purchasers the former franchisee presented. The parties participated in a mediation in April 2021, and again in December 2022, but the matter did not settle. The trial commenced on January 9, 2023 and on February 8, 2023, the jury returned a verdict finding the Company had not breached any contracts in terminating the franchise agreements or denying the proposed buyers. However, while the jury also found the Company had not violated the California Unfair Practices Act, it found for the plaintiff on the claim for breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and awarded $8.0 million in damages. On May 9, 2023, the court granted the Company's post-trial motion, overturning the jury verdict and ordering the plaintiff take nothing on its claims. As a result, the Company reversed the prior $8.0 million accrual. The Plaintiff has appealed the trial court's post-trial rulings. As part of the appeal, the parties participated in a mediation on March 18, 2025. The matter did not settle, and as of July 6, 2025, the Company has accrued an amount commensurate with attempts to resolve the claims on its condensed consolidated balance sheet. The parties are currently awaiting the appellate court's ruling.

***Other legal matters —*** In addition to the matters described above, we are subject to normal and routine litigation brought by former or current employees, customers, franchisees, vendors, landlords, shareholders, or others. We intend to defend ourselves in any such matters. Some of these matters may be covered, at least in part, by insurance or other third-party indemnity obligation. We record receivables from third party insurers when recovery has been determined to be probable.

***Lease guarantees —*** We remain contingently liable for certain leases relating to our former Qdoba business which we sold in fiscal 2018. Under the Qdoba Purchase Agreement, the buyer has indemnified the Company of all claims related to these guarantees. As of July 6, 2025, the maximum potential liability of future undiscounted payments under these leases is approximately $18.7 million. The lease terms extend for a maximum of approximately 13 more years and we would remain a guarantor of the leases in the event the leases are extended for any established renewal periods. In the event of default, we believe the exposure is limited due to contractual protections and recourse available in the lease agreements, as well as the Qdoba Purchase Agreement, including a requirement of the landlord to mitigate damages by re-letting the properties in default, and indemnity from the Buyer. The Company has not recorded a liability for these guarantees as we believe the likelihood of making any future payments is remote.

ITEM 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS</u>

**GENERAL**

The Company's fiscal year is 52 or 53 weeks ending the Sunday closest to September 30. Fiscal years 2025 and 2024 each include 52 weeks. Our first quarter includes 16 weeks and all other quarters include 12 weeks. All comparisons between 2025 and 2024 refer to the 12 weeks ("quarter") ended July 6, 2025 and July 7, 2024, respectively, unless otherwise indicated.

For an understanding of the significant factors that influenced our performance during 2025 and 2024, our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024.

Our MD&A consists of the following sections:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***• Overview*** — a general description of our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***• Results of operations*** — an analysis of our condensed consolidated statements of earnings (loss) for the periods presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***• Liquidity and capital resources*** — an analysis of our cash flows, including capital expenditures, share repurchase activity, dividends, and known trends that may impact liquidity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***• Discussion of critical accounting estimates*** — a discussion of accounting policies that require critical judgments and estimates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***• New accounting pronouncements*** — a discussion of new accounting pronouncements, dates of implementation and the impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations, if any.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***• Cautionary statements regarding forward-looking statements*** — a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements made by management.

We have included in our MD&A certain performance metrics that management uses to assess company performance and which we believe will be useful in analyzing and understanding our results of operations. These metrics include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in sales at restaurants open more than 18 months ("same-store sales"), systemwide sales, franchised restaurant sales, and average unit volumes ("AUVs"). Same-store sales, restaurant sales, and AUVs are presented for franchised restaurants and on a system-wide basis, which includes company and franchise restaurants. Franchise sales represent sales at franchise restaurants and are revenues of our franchisees. We do not record franchise sales as revenues; however, our royalty revenues, marketing fees and percentage rent revenues are calculated based on a percentage of franchise sales. We believe franchise and system same-store sales, franchised and system restaurant sales, and AUV information are useful to investors as they have a direct effect on the Company's profitability.

Same-store sales, systemwide sales, franchised restaurant sales, and AUVs are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to earnings from operations, or other similarly titled measures of other companies.

**OVERVIEW**

**Our Business**

Founded in 1951, Jack in the Box Inc. (the "Company") operates and franchises Jack in the Box<sup>®</sup> and Del Taco<sup>®</sup> quick-service restaurants. As of July 6, 2025, we operated and franchised 2,168 Jack in the Box quick-service restaurants, primarily in the western and southern United States, including two in Guam and three in Mexico, and 585 Del Taco quick-service restaurants across 17 states.

We derive revenue from retail sales at company-operated restaurants and rental revenue, royalties (based upon a percent of sales), franchise fees and contributions for advertising and other services from franchisees.

On April 23, 2025, the Company announced a multi-faceted plan, which included exploring strategic alternatives for the Del Taco brand and the possible divestiture of that business. The plan also included selling a select number of owned real estate holdings, as well as discontinuing its dividend, and directing a majority of those funds toward paying down debt. Additionally, the plan discussed a closure program, which is projected to result in the closure of approximately 150-200 underperforming Jack in the Box restaurants.

(1)Franchised restaurant sales represent sales at franchised restaurants and are revenues of our franchisees. System sales include company and franchised restaurant sales. We do not record franchised sales as revenues; however, our royalty revenues, marketing fees and percentage rent revenues are calculated based on a percentage of franchised sales. We believe franchised and system restaurant sales information is useful to investors as they have a direct effect on the Company's profitability.

____________________________

(1)Includes price increases of approximately 2.3% in the quarter and 3.8% year-to-date.

Food and packaging costs, as a percentage of company restaurant sales, decreased 0.6% in the quarter, and 2.0% year-to-date compared to the prior year, due mainly to a 0.9% and 2.0% benefit, respectively, from a new beverage contract with funding retroactive to January 1, 2024, as well as menu price increases, partially offset by commodity inflation and unfavorable menu item mix. Commodity inflation was 4.0% in the quarter, and 3.3% year-to-date, with the greatest impacts for the quarter in beef, poultry, and eggs, and the greatest impacts for the year-to-date period in beef, beverages, eggs, and poultry.

Payroll and employee benefit costs, as a percentage of company restaurant sales, increased 2.2% in the quarter, and 2.6% year-to-date compared to the prior year. During the quarter and on a year-to-date basis, increases were primarily due to additional FUTA taxes in California as well as wage inflation. The increases were partially offset by a decrease in incentive compensation due to lower achievement levels compared to the prior year. Labor inflation was approximately 1.5% in the quarter and 9.5% year-to-date. The year-to-date inflation was primarily due to the wage increases required in California effective April 1, 2024 under AB 1228.

Occupancy and other costs, as a percentage of company restaurant sales, increased 1.6% in the quarter, and 1.4% year-to-date compared to the prior year. The increases on both a quarter-to-date and year-to-date basis were primarily due to sales deleverage, higher rent, utilities, and other operating costs including delivery fees.

---

Franchise rental revenues decreased $5.6 million, or 6.8% in the quarter, and $7.1 million, or 2.7% year-to-date, compared to the prior year. Decreases in both periods were primarily due to lower percentage rent of $6.8 million and $12.7 million, respectively, partially offset by lease termination fees of $1.8 million and $5.2 million, respectively, and year-to-date higher pass through property tax revenue of $1.2 million.

Franchise royalties and other decreased $3.2 million, or 6.7% in the quarter, and $4.7 million, or 3.0% year-to-date compared to the prior year primarily due to lower royalty income driven by lower sales.

Franchise contributions for advertising and other services revenues decreased $4.3 million, or 8.3% in the quarter and $7.0 million, or 4.1% year-to-date, as compared to the prior year due mainly to lower sales driving marketing contributions lower by $3.4 million and $5.4 million, respectfully.

Franchise occupancy expenses, primarily rent, decreased $0.2 million, or 0.4% in the quarter and increased $2.8 million, or 1.7% year-to-date compared to the prior year. On a year-to-date basis, the increase was driven by higher pass through property tax expense and common area maintenance costs of $1.8 million and higher operating lease costs of $1.4 million.

Franchise support and other costs increased $0.4 million, or 14.5% and $0.4 million, or 4.4% year-to-date compared to the prior year.

Franchise advertising and other service expenses decreased $4.8 million, or 9.1% in the quarter, and $9.7 million or 5.5% year-to-date compared to the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to lower sales driving lower marketing expenses, as well as lower franchise IT support costs.

Company restaurant sales decreased $19.3 million or 29.2% in the quarter and $64.4 million or 28.5% year-to-date compared to the prior year primarily due to the refranchising of 47 company-operated restaurants since the third quarter of 2024 and decreases in same-store sales compared to the prior year. The following table presents the approximate impact of changes in AUVs and the number of restaurants on company restaurant sales for each respective period on company restaurant sales (*in millions*):

________________________

(1)Includes price increases of approximately 4.1% in the quarter and 6.3% year-to-date.

Food and packaging costs, as a percentage of company restaurant sales, increased 1.0% in the quarter and decreased 0.8% year-to-date. The increase for the quarter was primarily due to unfavorable menu item mix and commodity inflation. For the year-to-date period, the decrease was primarily due to menu price increases and favorable beverage funding, partially offset by commodity inflation and unfavorable menu item mix. Commodity inflation was 4.7% in the quarter and 3.9% year-to-date. The greatest impacts on both the quarter and year-to-date inflation was seen in beef, poultry, cheese, and beverages.

Payroll and employee benefit costs, as a percentage of company restaurant sales, increased 1.0% in the quarter and 2.4% year-to-date, compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher insurance and CA unemployment payroll tax adjustment, partially offset by wage deflation. There was labor deflation of 0.5% in the quarter and inflation of 9.2% year-to-date.

Occupancy and other costs, as a percentage of company restaurant sales, increased 1.7% in the quarter and 1.3% year-to-date compared to the prior year. In the quarter, the increase was primarily due to higher utilities and higher other operating costs including delivery fees, which was partially offset by a property tax refund received related to prior years. Year-to-date the increase was mainly due to higher costs for maintenance and repair and utilities.

| Royalties as a percentage of total franchised restaurant sales | 4.5% | 4.6% | 4.6% | 4.7% |

---

Franchise rental revenues increased $1.6 million, or 23.2%, in the quarter and $6.9 million, or 33.3% year-to-date compared to the prior year primarily due to higher rental income and property tax revenue resulting from new subleases related to the 47 restaurants refranchised since the third quarter of 2024.

Franchise royalties and other increased $0.7 million, or 9.3%, in the quarter and $1.8 million, or 7.1% year-to-date, compared to the prior year primarily due to higher franchise restaurant sales resulting from refranchising.

Franchise contributions for advertising and other services revenues increased $0.2 million, or 2.3%, in the quarter and was essentially flat year-to-date compared to the prior year primarily due to increased franchise marketing contributions resulting from the 47 restaurants refranchised since the third quarter of 2024, partially offset by lower IT support revenue.

Franchise occupancy expenses, primarily rent, increased $1.5 million, or 20.9%, in the quarter and $7.1 million, or 34.4% year-to-date, compared to the prior year primarily due to higher operating lease costs in the current year from refranchising.

Franchise support and other costs increased $0.5 million, or 56.5%, in the quarter and $1.6 million, or 45.5% year-to-date compared to the prior year primarily due to higher bad debt expense.

Franchise advertising and other service expenses decreased $0.2 million, or 2.4%, in the quarter and $0.3 million, or 1.3% year-to-date, compared to the prior year. For both the quarter and year-to-date periods, decreases in IT costs were partially offset by increases in marketing expense resulting from the 47 restaurants refranchised since the third quarter of 2024. For the year-to-date period, a decrease in equipment sales to franchisees also contributed to the decrease.

**Company-Wide Results** 

**Depreciation and Amortization**

Depreciation and amortization for the quarter ended July 6, 2025 decreased $1.0 million in the quarter and $2.9 million year-to-date compared to the prior year period primarily due to the 47 Del Taco restaurants refranchised since a year ago, as well as certain Jack in the Box franchise assets becoming fully depreciated. These decreases were partially offset by increases for new technology assets and new company operated restaurants.

Advertising costs mainly represent company contributions to our marketing funds and are generally determined as a percentage of company-operated restaurant sales. Advertising costs decreased $0.9 million in the quarter and $0.6 million on a year-to-date basis as compared to the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in company-operated restaurant sales in the current year, partially offset by an increase in expenses related to new markets and third party digital sponsorships.

Incentive compensation decreased by $2.0 million in the quarter and $3.1 million on a year-to-date basis as compared to the prior year, primarily due to lower achievement levels for the Company's annual incentive plan.

Share-based compensation decreased by $0.2 million in the quarter and $4.2 million on a year-to-date basis as compared to the prior year, primarily due to current year forfeitures and lower achievement levels for performance-based awards.

The cash surrender value of our company-owned life insurance ("COLI") policies, net of changes in our non-qualified deferred compensation obligation supported by these policies, are subject to market fluctuations. The changes in market values had a favorable impact of $2.8 million in the quarter and an unfavorable impact of $6.0 million on a year-to-date basis, compared to the prior year.

Litigation matters were essentially flat in the quarter, and increased $0.5 million on a year-to-date basis as compared to the prior year, primarily due to the timing of litigation developments. Refer to Note 14, *Commitments and Contingencies*, in the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information related to the legal matters.

Insurance increased $3.3 million in the quarter and $3.1 million on a year-to-date basis, as compared to the prior year primarily due to rolling over favorable adjustments for positive development factors in the prior year related to workers compensation and general liability claims.

**Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets**

During the second quarter of 2025, the Company had identified additional triggering events that indicated the goodwill allocated to the Del Taco reporting unit might be further impaired, including i) continued negative trend in Del Taco same store sales, ii) unfavorable changes in the economic environment specifically impacting our industry, including inflation and interest rates, iii) the potential for a divestment of Del Taco, and iv) a sustained lower share price. As a result, the Company performed a quantitative test over the Del Taco reporting unit, noting that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than the carrying value, which resulted in an impairment of goodwill of $25.3 million for the second quarter of 2025. The valuation used a blended approach with a discounted cash flow analysis in conjunction with a market approach. Assumptions and estimates used in determining fair value include future revenues, operating costs, new store openings, capital expenditures, a discount rate that approximates the Company's weighted average cost of capital and a selection of comparable companies. The Company determined that there was no such triggering event for the Jack in the Box reporting unit.

As a result of the franchisee acquisition during the third quarter of 2025, the Company recognized additional goodwill of $6.3 million. This additional goodwill was fully impaired based on the results of the quantitative impairment analysis performed in the second quarter of 2025.

During the second quarter of 2025, the Company also performed a quantitative analysis over its indefinte-lived intangible trademark asset and as a result, the Company recorded impairment of $177.9 million on the Del Taco trademark asset as noted below. During the third quarter of 2025, the Company performed a qualitative analysis over its indefinte-lived intangible trademark asset, noting no further impairment was deemed necessary.

**Other Operating Expenses, Net**

Other operating expenses, net is comprised of the following (*in thousands*):

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Quarter** | **Quarter** | **Year-to-date** | **Year-to-date** |
| | **July 6,<br>2025** | **July 7,<br>2024** | **July 6,<br>2025** | **July 7,<br>2024** |
| Integration and strategic initiatives | $2057 | $4723 | $3748 | $14612 |
| Costs of closed restaurants and other | 1917 | 160 | 4684 | 1792 |

|  | $5683 | $5641 | $13418 | $16343 |

---

Other operating expenses, net decreased less than $0.1 million in the quarter and $2.9 million on a year-to-date basis. For the quarter, the decrease was primarily due to the decrease of integration and strategic initiatives of $2.7 million, partially offset by $1.8 million of higher costs for closed restaurants as well as $0.6 million of higher operating restaurant impairment charges. For the year-to-date period, the decrease was primarily due to the decrease of integration and strategic initiatives of $10.9 million, partially offset by $2.9 million of additional costs of closed restaurants, $2.5 million of additional operating restaurant impairment charges, and a $2.4 million acquisition gain in the prior year.

**Gains and Losses on the Sale of Company-Operated Restaurants**

For the year-to-date period in 2025, the Company sold 13 Del Taco company-operated restaurants, for which the Company recognized a net gain on the sale of company-operated restaurants of $2.6 million. For the year-to-date period in 2024, the net loss on the sale of company-operated restaurants of $1.4 million, was comprised of a $2.2 million impairment of assets held for sale related to a Del Taco refranchising transaction, partially offset by additional proceeds received in connection with the extension of franchise agreements and the resolution of certain contingencies related to the sale of restaurants in prior years.

Refer to Note 3, S*ummary of Refranchisings and Assets Held for Sale,* of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding these transactions.

**Interest Expense, Net**

Interest expense, net is comprised of the following (*in thousands*):

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Quarter** | **Quarter** | **Year-to-date** | **Year-to-date** |
| | **July 6,<br>2025** | **July 7,<br>2024** | **July 6,<br>2025** | **July 7,<br>2024** |
| Interest expense | $18361 | $18901 | $62053 | $63261 |
| Interest income | (436) | (499) | (1335) | (1770) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Interest expense, net | $17925 | $18402 | $60718 | $61491 |

---

Interest expense, net, decreased $0.5 million in the quarter and $0.8 million year-to-date as compared to the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to lower average borrowings, resulting in a decrease of $0.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively, in interest expense.

**Income Taxes**

For the third quarter and year-to-date fiscal year 2025, the Company recorded income tax benefits of $0.5 million and $20.8 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (2.4%) and 19.3%, respectively. The effective tax rates for such periods differed from the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to non-deductible goodwill impairment partially offset by non-taxable gains from the market performance of insurance products used to fund certain non-qualified retirement plans.

For the third quarter and year-to-date fiscal year 2024, the Company recorded income tax expenses of $0.1 million and $23.3 million, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of (0.1%) and (66.0%), respectively. The effective tax rates for such periods differed from the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to the impairment of non-deductible goodwill partially offset by the reversal of state deferred tax liabilities on basis difference of investments in subsidiaries and non-taxable gains from the market performance of insurance products used to fund certain non-qualified retirement plans.

------

Under GAAP, the Company ordinarily calculates its provision for income taxes at the end of each interim reporting period by computing an estimated annual effective tax rate adjusted for tax items that are discrete to each period. For the third quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company calculated its interim tax provision based on actual year-to-date results because small changes in forecasted pre-tax book income led to large differences in the estimated annual effective tax rate.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

**General**

Our primary sources of short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resources are cash flows from operations and borrowings available under our credit facility. Our cash requirements consist principally of working capital, general corporate needs, capital expenditures, income tax payments, debt service requirements, franchise tenant improvement allowance and incentive distributions, and obligations related to our benefit plans. We generally use available cash flows from operations to invest in our business, service our debt obligations and repurchase shares of our common stock.

As of July 6, 2025, the Company had $68.1 million of cash and restricted cash on its consolidated balance sheet and available borrowings of $96.5 million under our $150.0 million Variable Funding Notes. The Company continually assesses the optimal sources and uses of cash for our business. We review our balance sheet for any undervalued assets and pursue opportunities for capital sources, including the sale of our owned Jack in the Box properties.

Based upon current levels of operations and anticipated growth, we expect that cash flows from operations, combined with our securitized financing facility, will be sufficient to meet our capital expenditure, working capital and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months and the foreseeable future.

**Cash Flows**

The table below summarizes our cash flows from continuing operations (*in thousands*):

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Year-to-date** | **Year-to-date** |
| | **July 6,<br>2025** | **July 7,<br>2024** |

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Financing activities | (52492) | (106124) |
| Net cash flows | $13944 | $(135149) |

---

**<u>Operating Activities.</u>** Operating cash flows increased $89.4 million compared with a year ago primarily due to a favorable change in working capital of $114.7 million, partially offset by lower net income, when adjusted for non-cash items, of $25.4 million. The favorable change in working capital is primarily a result of $50.3 million paid in 2024 for fiscal 2023 income tax payments deferred in connection with the Southern California winter storm disaster declaration, $35.0 million received in the current year in connection with the a new supply chain contract, and $25.5 million paid in 2024 in connection with the Torrez settlement.

**<u>Investing Activities</u>**. Cash flows used in investing activities decreased by $6.1 million compared with a year ago primarily due to lower spending for assets intended for sale or leaseback of $9.7 million in the current year, higher proceeds from the sale of property of $4.2 million in the current year, higher proceeds from the sale of Del Taco restaurants to franchisees of $3.5 million in the current year, and death benefit proceeds received of $3.3 million in the current year, partially offset by acquisition of 18 Colorado restaurants for $7.2 million, lower proceeds received from assets held for sale and leaseback of $4.4 million, and higher purchases of property and equipment of $3.1 million in the current year.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Purchases of assets intended for sale or leaseback (exercising right of first refusal) | $8827 | $18575 |

---

Capital expenditures increased $3.1 million primarily due to an increase in restaurant information technology related to the rollout of a new POS system for Jack in the Box company restaurants as well as investments in digital and other restaurant technology enhancements. These increases were partially offset by decreases in corporate technology spending due to the completion of our new enterprise resource planning software implementation last year.

For further information, see Note 3, *Summary of Refranchisings and Assets Held for Sale*, in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

**<u>Financing Activities</u>**. Cash flows used in financing activities decreased by $53.6 million compared with a year ago. The change is primarily due to a $50.0 million decrease in stock repurchases compared with a year ago and a $9.0 million decrease in dividends compared with a year ago, partially offset by a $6.0 million repayment in the current year on the Variable Funding Notes.

***Repurchases of common stock*** *—* The Company repurchased 0.1 million shares of its common stock in fiscal 2025 for an aggregate cost of $5.0 million. As of July 6, 2025, there was $175.0 million remaining under share repurchase programs authorized by the Board of Directors which does not expire.

***Dividends*** — Up through July 6, 2025, the Board of Directors declared two cash dividend of $0.44 per common share totaling $16.7 million. Jack in the Box announced on April 23, 2025, that it will discontinue its dividend effective immediately and direct a majority of those funds toward leverage reduction.

***Securitized Refinancing Transaction*** *—* On February 11, 2022, the Company completed the sale of $550.0 million of its Series 2022-1 3.445% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-I (the "Class A-2-I Notes") and $550.0 million of its Series 2022-1 4.136% Fixed Rate Senior Secured Notes, Class A-2-II (the "Class A-2-II Notes" and, together with the Class A-2-I Notes, the "2022 Notes"). Interest payments on the 2022 Notes are payable on a quarterly basis. The anticipated repayment dates of the 2022 Class A-2-I Notes and the Class A-2-II Notes will be February 2027 and February 2032, respectively, unless earlier prepaid to the extent permitted under the indenture that governs the 2022 Notes. The anticipated repayment dates of the existing 2019-1 Class A-2-II Notes and the Class A-2-III Notes are August 2026 and August 2029, respectively.

------

The Company also entered into a revolving financing facility of Series 2022-1 Variable Funding Senior Secured Notes (the "Variable Funding Notes"), which permits borrowings up to a maximum of $150.0 million, subject to certain borrowing conditions, a portion of which may be used to issue letters of credit. As of July 6, 2025, we did not have any outstanding borrowings and had available borrowing capacity of $96.5 million under our Variable Funding Notes, net of letters of credits issued of $53.5 million.

The 2022 Notes were issued in a privately placed securitization transaction pursuant to which certain of the Company's revenue-generating assets, consisting principally of franchise-related agreements, real estate assets, and intellectual property and license agreements for the use of intellectual property, are held by the Master Issuer and certain other limited-purpose, bankruptcy remote, wholly owned indirect subsidiaries of the Company that act as Guarantors of the Notes and that have pledged substantially all of their assets, excluding certain real estate assets and subject to certain limitations, to secure the Notes. The 2022 Notes are subject to the same covenants and restrictions as the Series 2019-1 Notes.

The quarterly principal payment on the Class A-2 Notes may be suspended when the specified leverage ratio, which is a measure of outstanding debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted for certain items (as defined in the Indenture), is less than or equal to 5.0x. Exceeding the leverage ratio of 5.0x does not violate any covenant related to the Class A-2 Notes. Subsequent to closing the issuance of the 2022 Notes, the Company has had a leverage ratio of greater than 5.0x and, accordingly, the Company resumed making the scheduled amortization payments on its 2022 Notes and Series 2019-1 Notes beginning in the second quarter of 2022.

***Restricted cash —*** In accordance with the terms of the Indenture, certain cash accounts have been established with the Indenture trustee for the benefit of the note holders and are restricted in their use. As of July 6, 2025, the Company had restricted cash of $30.1 million, which primarily represented cash collections and cash reserves held by the trustee to be used for payments of interest and commitment fees required for the Class A-1 and A-2 Notes.

***Covenants and restrictions*** *—* The Notes are subject to a series of covenants and restrictions customary for transactions of this type, including (i) that the Master Issuer maintains specified reserve accounts to be used to make required payments in respect of the Notes, (ii) provisions relating to optional and mandatory prepayments and the related payment of specified amounts, including specified make-whole payments in the case of the Class A-2 Notes under certain circumstances, (iii) certain indemnification payments in the event, among other things, the assets pledged as collateral for the Notes are in stated ways defective or ineffective and (iv) covenants relating to recordkeeping, access to information and similar matters. The Notes are also subject to customary rapid amortization events provided for in the Indenture, including events tied to failure to maintain stated debt service coverage ratios, the sum of gross sales for specified restaurants being below certain levels on certain measurement dates, certain manager termination events, an event of default, and the failure to repay or refinance the Class A-2 Notes on the applicable scheduled maturity date. The Notes are also subject to certain customary events of default, including events relating to non-payment of required interest, principal, or other amounts due on or with respect to the Notes, failure to comply with covenants within certain time frames, certain bankruptcy events, breaches of specified representations and warranties, failure of security interests to be effective, and certain judgments. As of July 6, 2025, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenant requirements and were not subject to any rapid amortization events.

***Revolving credit facility —*** In 2022, Del Taco had entered into a syndicated revolving credit facility with an aggregate principal amount of up to $75.0 million. The credit facility matured on February 28, 2025, and was not renewed.

**DISCUSSION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES**

Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that we believe are most important for the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results, and that require management's most subjective and complex judgments. Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or using different assumptions. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024.

These statements are based on management's current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about our business and the industry in which we operate. These estimates and assumptions involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that are in some cases beyond our control. Factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in the availability of and the cost of labor could adversely affect our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in consumer confidence and declines in general economic conditions could negatively impact our financial results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Increases in food and commodity costs could decrease our profit margins or result in a modified menu, which could adversely affect our financial results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Failure to receive scheduled deliveries of high-quality food ingredients and other supplies could harm our operations and reputation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Inability to attract, train and retain top-performing personnel could adversely impact our financial results or business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our business could be adversely affected by increased labor costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Unionization activities or labor disputes may disrupt our operations and affect our profitability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our insurance may not provide adequate levels of coverage against claims.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We face significant competition in the food service industry and our inability to compete may adversely affect our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in demographic trends and in customer tastes and preferences could cause sales and the royalties we receive from franchisees to decline.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Negative publicity relating to our business or industry could adversely impact our reputation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not have the same resources as our competitors for marketing, advertising and promotion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may be adversely impacted by severe weather conditions, natural disasters, terrorist acts or civil unrest that could result in property damage, injury to employees and staff, and lost restaurant sales.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Food safety and food-borne illness concerns may have an adverse effect on our business by reducing demand and increasing costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not achieve our development goals.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our highly franchised business model presents a number of risks, and the failure of our franchisees to operate successful and profitable restaurants could negatively impact our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are subject to financial and regulatory risks associated with our owned and leased properties and real estate development projects.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have a limited number of suppliers for our major products and rely on a distribution network with a limited number of distribution partners for the majority of our national distribution program. If our suppliers or distributors are unable to fulfill their obligations under their contracts, it could harm our operations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Increasing regulatory and legal complexity may adversely affect restaurant operations and our financial results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Governmental regulation may adversely affect our existing and future operations and results, including by harming our ability to profitably operate our restaurants.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The proliferation of federal, state, and local regulations increases our compliance risks, which in turn could adversely affect our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Legislation and regulations regarding our products and ingredients, including the nutritional content of our products, could impact customer preferences and negatively impact our financial results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property, which could harm the value of our brand and adversely affect our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are subject to increasing legal complexity and may be subject to claims or lawsuits that are costly to defend and could result in our payment of substantial damages or settlement costs.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately determine our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, the Company's stockholders could lose confidence in our financial results, which would harm our business and the value of the Company's common shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Changes in tax laws, interpretations of existing tax law, or adverse determinations by tax authorities could adversely affect our income tax expense and income tax payments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We may be subject to risk associated with disagreements with key stakeholders, such as franchisees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Actions of activist stockholders could cause us to incur substantial costs, divert management's attention and resources, and have an adverse effect on our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are subject to the risk of cybersecurity breaches, intrusions, data loss, or other data security incidents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are subject to risks associated with our increasing dependence on digital commerce platforms and technologies to maintain and grow sales, and we cannot predict the impact that these digital commerce platforms and technologies, other new or improved technologies or alternative methods of delivery may have on consumer behavior and our financial results.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We are dependent on information technology and digital service providers and any material failure, misuse or interruption of our computer systems, supporting infrastructure, consumer-facing digital capabilities or social media platforms could adversely affect our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The securitized debt instruments issued by certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries have restrictive terms, and any failure to comply with such terms could result in default, which could harm the value of our brand and adversely affect our business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We have a significant amount of debt outstanding. Such indebtedness, along with the other contractual commitments of our Company or its subsidiaries, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to meet debt payment obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The securitization transaction documents impose certain restrictions on our activities or the activities of our subsidiaries, and the failure to comply with such restrictions could adversely affect our business.

These and other factors are identified and described in more detail in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, but not limited to: the "Discussion of Critical Accounting Estimates," and other sections in this Form 10-Q and the "Risk Factors" section of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024 ("Form 10-K"). These documents may be read free of charge on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Potential investors are urged to consider these factors, more fully described in our Form 10-K, carefully in evaluating any forward-looking statements, and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are made only as of the date issued, and we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK</u>

There have been no material changes in our quantitative and qualitative market risks set forth in Part II, Item 7A "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024.

ITEM 4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES</u>

***Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures***

Based on an evaluation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of the end of the Company's quarter ended July 6, 2025, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively) have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

***Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting***

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's fiscal quarter ended July 6, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. <u>OTHER INFORMATION</u>

There is no information required to be reported for any items under Part II, except as follows:

ITEM 1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>LEGAL PROCEEDINGS</u>

See Note 14, *Commitments and Contingencies*, of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our contingencies and legal matters.

ITEM 1A.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>RISK FACTORS</u>

When evaluating our business and our prospects, you should consider the risks and uncertainties described under Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024, which we filed with the SEC on November 20, 2024, as updated in this Item 1A. You should also consider the risks and uncertainties discussed under the heading "Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. You should also refer to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2024, including our financial statements and the related notes. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the risks or uncertainties actually occur, our business and financial results could be harmed. In that case, the market price of our common stock could decline.

ITEM 2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS</u>

***Stock Repurchases*** — In the third quarter of 2025, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. As of July 6, 2025, this leaves $175.0 million remaining under share repurchase programs authorized by the Board of Directors.
