In this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries, is collectively referred to as “Chipotle,” “we,” “us,” or “our.”
We develop and operate restaurants that serve a relevant menu of burritos, burrito bowls, quesadillas, tacos, and salads, made using fresh, high-quality ingredients. As of June 30, 2024, we operated 3,530 restaurants including 3,460 Chipotle restaurants within the United States and 70 international Chipotle restaurants. Additionally, we had one international licensed restaurant. We manage our U.S. operations based on nine regions and aggregate our operations to one reportable segment.

On June 26, 2024, we effected a 50-for-1 stock split of our common stock and proportionately increased the number of authorized shares of common stock. All share and per share information, including share-based compensation, throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split. The shares of common stock retain a par value of $0.01 per share. Accordingly, an amount equal to the par value of the additional shares issued in the stock split was reclassified from capital in excess of par value to common stock. In the second quarter of 2024 we retired all treasury stock owned, which was recognized as a deduction from common stock for the shares' par value and the excess of cost over par as a deduction from retained earnings. All shares of common stock that we repurchase will be immediately retired and no longer held as treasury stock.
We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for annual reports. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, footnotes and management’s discussion and analysis included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
