Papa John’s International, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 29, 2025
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2025. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for Papa John’s International, Inc. (referred to as the “Company,” “Papa John’s,” “Papa Johns” or in the first-person notations of “we,” “us” and “our”) for the year ended December 29, 2024.
In discussions of our business, “Domestic” is defined as within the contiguous United States, “North America” includes Canada, and “International” includes the rest of the world other than North America.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Papa John’s International, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
During the year ended December 29, 2024, the Company implemented several financial statement changes in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, concurrent with the adoption of Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” These changes evolve and modernize our financial statements and footnotes to increase transparency and better reflect management’s key performance metrics. Presentation changes to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have been applied retrospectively, and as such, the results from the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation.
Additionally, during the year ended December 29, 2024, the Company updated its internal cost allocation methodology to better reflect current levels of time and effort spent managing our different segments. These updates resulted in a higher allocation of previously unallocated corporate expenses to primarily each of the North America franchising and International segments. This update in methodology did not impact total reported expenses and was implemented prospectively beginning with the year ended December 29, 2024, and as such prior-period comparative information has been recast.
Variable Interest Entity
Papa Johns Domestic restaurants, both Company-owned and franchised, participate in Papa John’s Marketing Fund, Inc. (“PJMF”), a nonstock corporation designed to operate at break-even as it spends all annual contributions received from the system. PJMF collects a percentage of revenues from Company-owned and franchised restaurants in the United States for the purpose of designing and administering advertising and promotional programs. PJMF is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) that funds its operations with ongoing financial support and contributions from the Domestic restaurants, of which approximately 85 percent are franchised, and does not have sufficient equity to fund its operations without these ongoing financial contributions. Based on an assessment of the governance structure and operating procedures of PJMF, the Company determined it has the power to control certain significant activities of PJMF, and therefore, is the primary beneficiary. The Company has consolidated PJMF in its financial results in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, “Consolidation.”
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and
7

accompanying notes. Significant items that are subject to such estimates and assumptions include the allowance for credit losses on accounts and notes receivable, property and equipment, net and impairment of long-lived assets, insurance reserves and tax reserves. Although management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, actual results could significantly differ from these estimates.
Noncontrolling Interests
Papa Johns has joint venture arrangements in which there are noncontrolling interests held by third parties that includ ed 98 restaurants at June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Consolidated net income is required to be reported separately at amounts attributable to both the Company and the noncontrolling interests held by third parties.
Net income attributable to these joint ventures for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024 was as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended |  | Six Months Ended
(In thousands) |  | June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024 |  | June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024
Papa John’s International, Inc. |  | $ | 327 |  |  | $ | 739 |  |  | $ | 602 |  |  | $ | 1,331 |
Redeemable noncontrolling interests |  | 22 |  |  | 91 |  |  | 52 |  |  | 190 |
Nonredeemable noncontrolling interests |  | 118 |  |  | 202 |  |  | 209 |  |  | 381 |
Total net income |  | $ | 467 |  |  | $ | 1,032 |  |  | $ | 863 |  |  | $ | 1,902 |

The following summarizes the redemption feature, location and related accounting within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for these joint venture arrangements:

Type of Joint Venture Arrangement |  | Location within the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets |  | Recorded Value
Joint ventures with no redemption feature |  | Permanent equity |  | Carrying value
Joint ventures with option to require the Company to purchase the noncontrolling interest - not currently redeemable or redemption not probable |  | Temporary equity |  | Carrying value

Deferred Income Tax Accounts and Tax Reserves
We are subject to income taxes in the United States and several foreign jurisdictions. Management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes and the related assets and liabilities. The provision for income taxes includes income taxes paid, currently payable or receivable and those deferred. We use an estimated annual effective rate based on expected annual income to determine our quarterly provision for income taxes. The effective income tax rate includes the estimated domestic state effective income tax rate and applicable foreign income tax rates. The effective income tax rate is also impacted by various permanent items and credits, net of any related valuation allowances, and can vary based on changes in estimated annual income. Discrete items are recorded in the quarter in which they occur.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are netted by tax jurisdiction. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for the estimated future effects of tax attribute carryforwards (e.g., net operating losses, capital losses, and foreign tax credits). The effect on deferred taxes due to changes in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the new tax rate is enacted. Valuation allowances are established when necessary on a jurisdictional basis to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts we expect to realize. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded within Other assets and Other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Tax authorities periodically audit the Company. We record reserves and related interest and penalties for identified exposures as income tax expense. We evaluate these issues on a quarterly basis to adjust for events, such as statute of limitations expirations, court rulings or audit settlements, which may impact our ultimate payment for such exposures.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
The Company determines the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability to a market participant. Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are required to be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
•Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
•Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
Fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to estimate fair value; accordingly, the fair values presented do not necessarily indicate what the Company or its debtholders could realize in a current market exchange.
Our financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 29, 2025 and December 29, 2024 are as follows:

(a)Represents life insurance policies held in our non-qualified deferred compensation plan, which are classified as Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets
(b)The fair value of our interest rate swaps is based on the sum of all future net present value cash flows. The future cash flows are derived based on the terms of our interest rate swaps, as well as considering published discount factors, and projected Secured Overnight Financing Rates (“SOFR”). See “Note 8. Debt” for further discussion on the new interest rate swaps executed during the second quarter of 2025.
There were no transfers among levels within the fair value hierarchy during the three and six months ended June 29, 2025 or fiscal year 2024.
The fair value of certain assets and liabilities approximates carrying value because of the short-term nature of the accounts, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net of allowances, and accounts payable. The carrying value of notes receivable, net of allowances, also approximates fair value. The Company’s revolving credit facilities and term loan borrowings under the Company’s credit agreement approximate carrying value due to their variable market-based interest rate. See “Note 8. Debt” for further discussion on the amendment to our credit agreement executed during the first quarter of 2025. The Company’s 3.875% senior notes are classified as a Level 2 fair value measurement since the Company
9

estimates the fair value by using recent trading transactions, and have the following estimated fair values and carrying values (excluding the impact of unamortized debt issuance costs) as of June 29, 2025 and December 29, 2024:

|  | June 29, 2025 |  | December 29, 2024

Allowance for Credit Losses
Estimates of expected credit losses, even if remote, are based upon historical account write-off trends, facts about the current financial condition of the debtor, forecasts of future operating results based upon current trends of select operating metrics, and macroeconomic factors. Credit quality is monitored through the timing of payments compared to the prescribed payment terms and known facts regarding the financial condition of the franchisee or customer. Account and note balances are charged against the allowance after recovery efforts have ceased.
The following table summarizes changes in our allowances for credit losses for accounts receivable and notes receivable:

(In thousands) |  | Accounts Receivable |  | Notes Receivable
Balance at December 29, 2024 |  | $ | 8,468 |  |  | $ | 15,238 |
Current period provision for expected credit losses, net |  | 1,632 |  |  | 1,795 |
Write-offs charged against the allowance |  | (934) |  |  | — |
Balance at June 29, 2025 |  | $ | 9,166 |  |  | $ | 17,033 |

Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company evaluates its property and equipment and other long-lived assets for potential indicators of impairment at least annually, or as facts and circumstances arise that indicate the carrying value of the asset group may not be recoverable. For Domestic Company-owned restaurants, the evaluation is performed at the operating market level while International Company-owned restaurants are evaluated at the restaurant level as these respective levels represent the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset group exceeds the amount of estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the fair value of the asset group is estimated and an impairment loss is recorded if the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. The assumptions used in the undiscounted cash flow calculation related to future growth are subjective and may be negatively impacted by future changes in operating performance or economic conditions.
Tornado Impact
During the first quarter of 2025, a tornado caused real and personal property damage to the Company’s leased Quality Control Center (“QC Center”) in Grand Prairie, Texas. The Company recorded pre-tax expenses of $0.9 million during the six months ended June 29, 2025 related to these damages, which primarily reflect operating lease right-of-use asset impairment charges related to the leased property offset by expected property-related insurance proceeds. Expenses incurred and the related anticipated insurance proceeds were recorded within General and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
During the second quarter of 2025, a tornado caused real and personal property damage to the Company’s restaurant support center and QC Center in Louisville, Kentucky. The Company recorded asset impairment charges of $2.7 million and incurred additional operating expenses of $1.5 million during the three months ended June 29, 2025, for which we recorded an anticipated insurance recovery as we believe such losses are probable of recovery under our insurance policy.
The Company received $3.5 million of insurance proceeds during the three months ended June 29, 2025 related to the two incidents, of which $2.9 million were classified as cash inflows from investing activities and $0.6 million were classified as cash inflows from operating activities based on the nature of the underlying losses and expected usage of the proceeds. To the extent that proceeds received from our insurer in future periods exceed losses recognized in the financial statements, we may record income within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations once such insurance proceeds are
10

realized or realizable. Neither of the tornadoes had a significant impact on our operations, as our other QC Centers were able to ensure that restaurants were adequately supplied.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The ASU provides for additional levels of details within the required rate reconciliation table to include additional categories of information about federal, state, and foreign income taxes and requires entities to further disaggregate information about income taxes paid, net of refunds. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and shall be applied prospectively. The Company is finalizing its assessment of the additional disclosure requirements and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” The ASU includes required disclosures in the notes to the consolidated financial statements of specific information about certain costs and expenses. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and the standard may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of the new standard, including an evaluation of the Company’s financial systems and availability of data to meet the requirements.
3. Leases
Lessor Operating Leases
The Company subleases certain retail space to our franchisees in the UK, which are primarily operating leases. At June 29, 2025, we leased and subleased approximately 340 Papa Johns restaurants to franchisees in the UK. The initial lease terms on the franchised sites in the UK are generally 15 years. The Company has the option to negotiate an extension toward the end of the lease term at the landlord’s discretion. The initial lease terms of the franchisee subleases are generally five to ten years. Rental income, primarily derived from properties leased and subleased to franchisees in the UK, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective operating lease terms. The Company recognized total sublease income of $2.8 million and $5.4 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, and $2.1 million and $4.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, within Other revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Lease Guarantees
As a result of assigning our interest in obligations under property leases as a condition of the refranchising of certain restaurants, we are contingently liable for payment of approximately 70 Domestic leases. These leases have varying terms, the latest of which expires in 2034. As of June 29, 2025, the estimated maximum amount of undiscounted payments the Company could be required to make in the event of nonpayment by the primary lessees was $9.1 million. This contingent liability is not included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as it is not probable to occur. The fair value of the guarantee is not material.

4. Papa John’s Marketing Fund, Inc.
PJMF, which is a consolidated VIE where the Company has been identified as the primary beneficiary, collects a percentage of revenues from Company-owned and franchised restaurants in the United States for the purpose of designing and administering advertising and promotional programs for all participating Domestic restaurants. Contributions and expenditures are reported on a gross basis in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within Advertising funds revenue and Advertising funds expense, respectively. PJMF also has a wholly-owned subsidiary, Papa Card, Inc., which administers the Company’s gift card programs.
Assets and liabilities of PJMF, which are utilized solely for the Company’s advertising and promotional programs, were as follows in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (in thousands):

5. Revenue Recognition
Contract Balances
Our contract liabilities primarily relate to franchise fees, unredeemed gift card liabilities, and loyalty program obligations, which we classify within Current deferred revenue and Deferred revenue on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, the Company recognized $7.9 million and $17.7 million, respectively and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $8.2 million and $16.3 million, respectively, related to deferred revenue.
The following table includes a breakout of contract liability balances (in thousands):

|  | June 29, 2025 |  | December 29, 2024 |  | Change
Unearned franchise fees and royalties |  | $ | 20,652 |  |  | $ | 21,860 |  |  | $ | (1,208) |
Unredeemed gift card liabilities |  | 6,680 |  |  | 7,694 |  |  | (1,014) |
Customer loyalty program obligations |  | 5,707 |  |  | 7,252 |  |  | (1,545) |
Total contract liabilities |  | $ | 33,039 |  |  | $ | 36,806 |  |  | $ | (3,767) |

Our contract assets consist primarily of equipment incentives provided to franchisees. Equipment incentives are related to the future value of commissary revenue the Company will receive over the term of the incentive agreement. Contract assets were approximately $17.2 million and $16.6 million, respectively, at June 29, 2025 and December 29, 2024. Revenue was reduced approximately $1.9 million and $3.5 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025 and approximately $1.4 million and $2.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, for the amortization of contract assets over the applicable contract terms. Contract assets are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations
The following table (in thousands) includes estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period.

|  | Performance Obligations by Period
|  | Less than 1 Year |  | 1-2 Years |  | 2-3 Years |  | 3-4 Years |  | 4-5 Years |  | Thereafter |  | Total
Unearned franchise fees and royalties |  | $ | 3,412 |  |  | $ | 2,932 |  |  | $ | 2,691 |  |  | $ | 2,450 |  |  | $ | 2,194 |  |  | $ | 4,604 |  |  | $ | 18,283 |

At June 29, 2025, approximately $2.4 million of area development fees related to unopened restaurants and International unearned franchise fees are included in Deferred revenue. Timing of revenue recognition is dependent upon the timing of restaurant openings and franchisees’ revenues. Unredeemed gift card liabilities, which are included in Deferred revenue, will be recognized in Company-owned restaurant sales when gift cards are redeemed. The Company will recognize redemption fee revenue in Other revenues when cards are redeemed at franchised restaurant locations.
The Company applies the practical expedient in ASC 606, “Revenue Recognition” and does not disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less.
6. Common Stock
Shares Authorized and Outstanding
The Company has authorized 100.0 million shares of common stock as of June 29, 2025 and December 29, 2024. The Company’s outstanding shares of common stock, net of repurchased shares of common stock held as treasury stock, were 32.8 million shares at June 29, 2025, compared to 32.6 million shares at December 29, 2024.
Share Repurchase Program
On October 28, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program with an indefinite duration for up to $425.0 million of the Company’s common stock. There was no share repurchase activity during the three and six months
13

ended June 29, 2025 or June 30, 2024. Approximately $90.2 million remained available under the Company’s share repurchase program as of June 29, 2025.
The timing and volume of share repurchases under the Company’s share repurchase programs may be executed at the discretion of management on an opportunistic basis, subject to market and business conditions, regulatory requirements and other factors, or pursuant to trading plans or other arrangements. Repurchases under the programs may be made through open market, block, and privately negotiated transactions, including Rule 10b5-1 plans, at times and in such amounts as management deems appropriate. Repurchases under the Company’s share repurchase programs may be commenced or suspended from time to time at the Company’s discretion without prior notice. Funding for the share repurchase programs will be provided through our credit facility, operating cash flow and cash and cash equivalents.
Dividends
The Company paid aggregate cash dividends of approximately $30.5 million ($0.92 per share) for the six months ended June 29, 2025. On August 1, 2025, our Board of Directors declared a third quarter dividend of $0.46 per common share (approximately $15.4 million in the aggregate), which will be paid on August 29, 2025 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 18, 2025. The declaration and payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors.
7. Earnings per Share
We compute earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method requires an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common shareholders and participating security holders according to dividends declared and participating rights in undistributed earnings. Time-based restricted stock awards are participating securities because holders of such unvested shares have rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends. Under the two-class method, total dividends provided to the holders of participating securities are subtracted from net income attributable to the Company to determine net income attributable to common shareholders. The Company may, at its sole discretion, require any dividends paid on the unvested restricted stock awards to be paid in shares rather than in cash, which could then be forfeited if the employee forfeits the underlying awards.
Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income attributable to common shareholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing the net income attributable to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding consist of basic weighted average common shares outstanding plus weighted average awards outstanding under our equity compensation plans, which are dilutive securities.
14

The calculations of basic and diluted earnings per common share are as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

|  | Three Months Ended |  | Six Months Ended

Senior Notes
On September 14, 2021, the Company issued $400.0 million of 3.875% Senior Notes (the “Notes”) which mature on September 15, 2029. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year at a fixed interest rate of 3.875% per annum. Refer to Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024 for further description of the provisions and covenant requirements under the Senior Notes.
Term Loan and Revolving Facilities
On March 26, 2025, the Company amended and restated the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of September 14, 2021 and amended May 30, 2023 (together, the “Previous Credit Agreement”) pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of March 26, 2025 (the “Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”). The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan in a principal amount of $200.0 million (the “Term Loan”) and a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate available principal amount of $600.0 million (the “PJI Revolving Facility” together with the Term Loan, the “PJI Credit Facilities”), of which up to $40.0 million is available as swingline loans and up to $80.0 million as letters of credit. The PJI Credit Facilities will mature on March 26, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”) with term loans amortizing in quarterly installments
15

commencing on June 30, 2026 in amounts as set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the unpaid balance maturing on the Maturity Date. The remaining availability under the PJI Revolving Facility was approximately $466.2 million as of June 29, 2025.
The Term Loan was advanced in full at the closing of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, with the proceeds used to repay borrowings outstanding under the senior secured revolving credit facility under the Previous Credit Agreement. The Company incurred $3.2 million of lender and third-party fees, which are being amortized into Net interest expense over the term of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The covenant requirements under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement remain in place and are similar to the terms of the Previous Credit Agreement; refer to Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024 for further description of covenant terms under the Previous Credit Agreement.
PJMF Revolving Facility
PJMF has a $30.0 million revolving line of credit (the “PJMF Revolving Facility”) pursuant to a Revolving Loan Agreement, dated September 30, 2015, and most recently amended on September 30, 2024. The PJMF Revolving Facility is secured by substantially all assets of PJMF. The PJMF Revolving F acility matures on September 30, 2025, but is subject to annual renewals. The borrowings under the PJMF Revolving Facility accrue interest at a variable rate of a one month SOFR plus 1.975%. The Company did not have any borrowings under the PJMF Revolving Facility as of June 29, 2025 or December 29, 2024. The PJMF operating results and the related debt outstanding do not impact the financial covenants under the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company has historically entered into interest rate swaps with the objective of mitigating the Company’s exposure to the impact of interest rate changes associated with our variable rate debt under the PJI Credit Facilities. During the three months ended June 29, 2025, the Company executed two new interest rate swaps, each with notional values of $50.0 million, to replace the Company’s interest rate swaps that matured on June 30, 2025.
As of June 29, 2025, we had the following interest rate swap agreements:

Effective Dates |  | Floating Rate Debt |  | Fixed Rates
June 23, 2023 through June 30, 2025 |  | $ | 50 million |  | 4.55%
June 23, 2023 through June 30, 2025 |  | $ | 50 million |  | 4.55%
April 29, 2025 through April 25, 2028 |  | $ | 50 million |  | 3.49%
June 30, 2025 through June 30, 2028 |  | $ | 50 million |  | 3.72%

We have designated the interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges and assess hedge effectiveness on a quarterly basis. The interest rate swaps are recorded at fair value at each reporting date, and any unrealized gains or losses are included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and reclassified to Net interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affect earnings.
The following table provides information on the location and amounts of our current swaps in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (in thousands):

9. Restructuring
International Restructuring
In December 2023, the Company announced international transformation initiatives (the “International Transformation Plan”) designed to evolve our business structure to deliver an enhanced value proposition to our International customers and franchisees, ensure targeted investments and efficient resource management, and better position our largest markets, including the UK, for long-term profitable growth and brand strength. During fiscal 2023 and 2024, the Company implemented approved initiatives under the International Transformation Plan related to establishing new regional hubs across APAC (Asia Pacific), EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa), and Latin America.
During 2024, the Company commenced the next phase of the International Transformation Plan, which involved strategic restaurant closures and divestitures in the UK in order to optimize the Company’s UK restaurant portfolio and improve overall profitability by closing unprofitable locations and mitigating remaining occupancy costs at closed locations, as well as enhancing profitability across the remaining portfolio of Company-owned restaurants. Execution on this phase resulted in the closure of 43 underperforming UK Company-owned restaurants and 32 franchised locations during 2024 and 2025. We recognized impairment charges of $1.4 million and $9.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, for the amount by which the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value of the asset groups.
During 2024, the Company also completed the refranchising of 60 formerly Company-owned restaurants to primarily existing franchisees. We have completed substantially all of the strategic restaurant closures in the UK market and the Company’s efforts during 2025 have turned towards growth opportunities and mitigating closure-related costs as we complete optimization of the portfolio.
The following table summarizes restructuring related costs recorded for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024 (in thousands):

The Company has incurred total restructuring related costs of $34.1 million since commencement of the International Transformation Plan, all of which were included in General and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total estimated pre-tax costs associated with the International Transformation Plan are approximately $35 million (inclusive of the $34.1 million incurred through the second quarter of 2025), substantially all of which will be recorded within our International segment, and we expect to incur the remainder of these costs through 2025.

10. Litigation, Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is involved in a number of lawsuits, claims, investigations and proceedings, including those specifically identified below, consisting of intellectual property, employment, consumer, commercial and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. In accordance with ASC 450, “Contingencies,” the Company has made accruals with respect to these matters, where appropriate, which are reflected in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. We review these provisions at least quarterly and adjust these provisions to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular case.
In re Papa John’s Employee & Franchise Employee Antitrust Litigation is a putative class action filed in December 2018 in the United States District Court for the Western District of Kentucky. The suit alleges that the “no-poaching” provision previously contained in the Company’s franchise agreement constituted an unlawful agreement or conspiracy in restraint of trade and commerce in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act. On April 14, 2022, the parties reached a settlement in principle to resolve the case. Pursuant to the terms of the proposed settlement, in exchange for the Company’s payment of a total aggregate settlement amount of $5.0 million and other non-monetary consideration, all claims in the action will be dismissed, the litigation will be terminated, and the Company will receive a release. The settlement amount was recorded in General and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the first quarter of 2022 and remained accrued in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 29, 2025. The proposed settlement remains subject to approval by the District Court and contains certain customary contingencies. The Company continues to deny any liability or wrongdoing in this matter.
11. Segment Information
We have four reportable segments: Domestic Company-owned restaurants, North America franchising, North America commissaries, and International operations. The Domestic Company-owned restaurant segment consists of the operations of all Domestic Company-owned restaurants and principally generates revenues from retail sales of pizza and other food and beverage products. The North America franchising segment consists of our franchise sales and support activities and derives its revenues from sales of franchise and development rights and the collection of royalties from our franchisees located in the United States and Canada. The North America commissaries segment consists of the operations of our regional dough production and product distribution centers in the United States and Canada and derives its revenues principally from the sale and distribution of food and paper products to Domestic Company-owned and franchised restaurants in the United States and Canada. The International segment consists of the operations of all Company-owned restaurants located in the UK, as well as distribution sales to franchised Papa Johns restaurants located in the UK and our franchise sales and support activities, which derive revenues from sales of franchise and development rights and the collection of royalties from our International franchisees. International franchisees are defined as all franchise operations outside of the United States and Canada. Our reportable segments are distinct business units that provide different products or services. Separate management of each segment is required because each business unit is subject to different operational issues and strategies. Certain administrative and capital costs are allocated to each of our segments based upon predetermined rates or estimated resource usage.
All other business units that do not meet the quantitative or qualitative thresholds for determining reportable segments, which are not operating segments, we refer to as “All Other”. These consist of operations that derive revenues from franchise contributions to marketing funds and information systems and related services used in restaurant operations, including our point-of-sale system, online and other technology-based ordering platforms.

Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, the Company updated its measure of segment profit or loss to be adjusted EBITDA, which aligns with how the CODM evaluates performance of and allocates resources to our segments. For comparability purposes, segment results for the prior year period have been recast to reflect this change in measure of segment profit or loss. Adjusted EBITDA represents Net income before Net interest expense, Income tax expense, Depreciation and amortization, Stock-based compensation expense, and other adjustments that vary from period to period, including certain general and administrative expenses and other items that do not reflect normal, recurring expenses necessary to operate our business. During the annual budget and forecasting process, the CODM uses adjusted EBITDA to allocate resources (including employees, property, and financial or capital resources) to the segments. The CODM regularly reviews trends in adjusted EBITDA on at least a quarterly basis to evaluate the profitability of the segments and to make resource allocation decisions. When our CODM reviews balance sheet information, it is at a consolidated level.
Segment Results
The tables below present our operating results by segment (in thousands). The significant expense categories and amounts presented in the tables below align with the segment-level information that is regularly provided to the CODM. A reconciliation to Company results is included in the following section.

___________________________________
(a) Segment expenses exclude Depreciation and amortization, Stock-based compensation expense, and certain General and Administrative expenses and other items that do not reflect normal, recurring expenses necessary to operate our business (see reconciliation that follows).
(b) The Company prospectively adjusted for updates in internal cost allocation methodologies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024, which increased the amount of internal general and administrative expenses allocated to the segments from Unallocated corporate expenses. These methodology updates have been reflected in the 2024 comparable results. Refer to Note 23 of the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024 for additional information.
(c) Other Segment Expenses represent all operating expenses that are not included in the significant segment expense categories. The components of Other Segment Expense are advertising fund expenses and other operating expenses.
(d) We have included “COS - Other” as a significant expense category beginning in the first quarter of 2025, consistent with the segment expense categories regularly provided to the CODM when evaluating segment performance and allocating resources. “COS - Other” includes delivery expenses, Company-owned restaurant advertising costs, insurance, rent, aggregator fees, and other costs of sales. For comparability purposes, we have recast quarterly 2024 segment results to include this expense category.

___________________________________
(a) As noted in the commentary above, All Other revenue and adjusted EBITDA is derived from business units that do not meet the quantitative or qualitative thresholds for determining reportable segments. These consist of operations that derive revenues from franchise contributions to marketing funds and information systems and related services used in restaurant operations, including our point-of-sale system, online and other technology-based ordering platforms. Our largest marketing fund is PJMF, which is designed to operate at break-even for the purpose of designing and administering advertising and promotional programs for all participating Domestic restaurants. Technology-based franchisee fees are meant to offset the costs of building, operating, and depreciating technology that supports franchisee operations. As such, these fees may vary from period to period, as they are designed to operate near break-even over time including the impact of depreciation.
(b) Unallocated corporate expenses represent administrative fees incurred by the restaurant support centers, including information systems and related services, corporate salaries and bonuses, and other corporate costs. These expenses are adjusted for depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and certain general and administrative expenses and other items that do not reflect normal, recurring expenses necessary to operate our business (see reconciliation that follows).
(c) Other income/(expense) adjustments represent Depreciation and amortization, Stock-based compensation expense, and certain general and administrative expenses and other items that do not reflect normal, recurring expenses necessary to operate our business. As such, management excludes these items from the evaluation of adjusted EBITDA. For the periods above, the adjustments include:

Disaggregation of Revenue
Our segments earn revenue from both external and internal customers. No single external customer accounted for 10% or more of our total revenues. We account for intercompany sales and transfers as if the sales or transfers were to third parties and subsequently eliminate the activity. The accounting policies of our segments are the same as those described in 2. Significant Accounting Policies.
In the following tables, revenues are disaggregated by major product/service line. The tables also include a reconciliation of the disaggregated revenues by the reportable segment (in thousands):

12. Subsequent Events
Enactment of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”
On July 4, 2025, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” a comprehensive tax and spending bill, was signed into U.S. law. The legislation includes changes to the U.S. corporate tax system, including, but not limited to:
•Maintaining the corporate income tax rate at 21%;
•Modifications to the deductibility of interest expense and executive compensation;
•Reinstatement and expansion of certain bonus depreciation provisions;
•Reinstatement of full expensing for domestic research and development expenditures;
•Significant changes to many credits and provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act; and
•Changes to foreign income taxation, including revisions to Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) and foreign-derived deduction eligible income (“FDDEI”) provisions.
The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the new legislation on its Consolidated Financial Statements. However, we currently expect that these changes may have a material impact on the Company’s current and deferred tax assets and liabilities as well as a favorable impact on the amount of cash taxes paid during 2025. We do not currently expect a material impact to our effective tax rate for 2025. Because the bill was enacted subsequent to June 29, 2025, its effects are not reflected in the accompanying financial statements as of and for the period ended June 29, 2025.
Anticipated Sale of Joint Venture
On July 18, 2025, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) to sell its 70% interest in a consolidated joint venture that currently operates 85 Domestic Company-owned restaurants for approximately $25 million, which is subject to change based on customary adjustments and is subject to various contingencies. Upon closing of the sale, which we expect to complete by the end of 2025, the Company expects to recognize an estimated pre-tax gain on sale of $15 million to $20 million and the restaurants will convert to franchised locations. This estimate is preliminary and subject to change, as the final gain will be determined upon completion of the relative fair value allocation necessary to finalize the disposal of goodwill associated with the divestiture as well as the final asset and liability balances as of the closing date. As such, the actual gain recognized may differ materially from our current estimate. The Company is unable to provide assurances as to whether the contingencies under the Purchase Agreement will be satisfied within the estimated timing or at all.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Papa John’s International, Inc. (referred to as the “Company,” “Papa John’s,” “Papa Johns” or in the first-person notations of “we,” “us” and “our”) operates and franchises pizza delivery and carryout restaurants and, in certain international markets, dine-in and delivery restaurants under the trademark “Papa John’s.” Papa Johns began operations in 1984. At June 29, 2025, there were 5,989 Papa John’s restaurants in operation, consisting of 554 Company-owned and 5,435 franchised restaurants operating in 50 countries and territories. Our revenues are derived from retail sales of pizza and other food and beverage products to the general public by Company-owned restaurants, franchise royalties, and sales of franchise and development rights. Additionally, we derive revenues from sales to franchisees of various items including food and paper products from our North America Quality Control Centers (“QC Centers”) and operation of our International QC Center in the United Kingdom (“UK”), contributions received by Papa John’s Marketing Fund (“PJMF”) which is our national marketing fund, and fees related to the use of information systems equipment as well as software and related services. We believe that in addition to supporting both Company and franchised profitability and growth, these activities contribute to product quality and consistency throughout the Papa Johns system.
In discussions of our business, “Domestic” is defined as within the contiguous United States, “North America” includes Canada, and “International” includes the rest of the world other than North America.
Recent Developments and Trends
During the second quarter of 2025, we remained focused on executing our strategic priorities and returned to growth in our key comparable sales metric in North America as we position the business for long-term success while continuing to navigate a dynamic macroeconomic and competitive environment. We continue to put our efforts and investments toward initiatives that improve our price/value perception and improve our digital and loyalty experience to increase conversion and reduce friction within the customer experience. Our key areas of focus are:
•Marketing strategy: During the second quarter of 2025, we furthered our investments in our messaging to showcase our BETTER INGREDIENTS. BETTER PIZZA® platform through our “Meet the Makers” marketing campaign, highlighting our six simple ingredients and fresh, never frozen dough and the craftsmanship behind the products we serve. We also focused marketing efforts on improving our value perception, such as emphasizing our Papa Pairings at appropriately-valued price points. We believe if we maintain an appropriate balance of value offerings and premium products, it will lead to improving sales trends and transactions over time. We anticipate spending up to an additional $25 million in marketing investments throughout 2025, including investments in our customer relationship management platform and our loyalty program, when compared with 2024. This incremental spend will focus on ensuring a strong presence nationally as well as in key regional and local markets while leveraging our data to create more personalized offers for our customers.
•Digital and loyalty strategy: Most of our sales occur through digital channels, and we are placing additional focus on strategic investments in our technology infrastructure. Our recently announced partnership with Google Cloud to enhance our ordering and delivery experience serves as an additional example of our commitment to delivering a superior customer experience. We are currently developing and beta testing our new omnichannel experiences, including a new app for iOS and Android to improve navigation and order tracking. We believe these rollouts will enable customers to streamline the ordering journey and simplify the overall user experience. In the fourth quarter of 2024, we also updated our loyalty program to allow members to unlock redeemable rewards in the form of “Papa Dough” faster by converting points to Papa Dough in smaller increments. Though the lower redemption threshold slightly decreased our overall ticket size during the quarter, we are pleased with the response to the lower redemption threshold, which has activated our members at higher rates to help drive transactions and frequency. We will continue evolving our loyalty and digital experiences as they must be flexible and easy to understand to create strong, emotionally connected consumer engagement that seamlessly integrates with our creative, paid, earned and owned messaging.
•Domestic commissary growth strategy: We continue to evolve our commissary business to drive profitable growth and improve overall supply chain productivity across the system. We have undertaken an internal review of our supply chain and have identified several initiatives that we believe will optimize our commissary business in an effort to reduce the overall cost to serve our Domestic Company-owned and franchised restaurants. Management has not yet finalized the timing and extent to which these initiatives will be implemented, but currently believe that we will begin recognizing cost savings from these initiatives in 2026.
25

•Development strategy: Development is a key long-term growth driver as we believe there is significant opportunity to offer our quality product to more customers globally and domestically. During the second quarter, we opened 45 new restaurants systemwide, comprised of 19 restaurant openings in North America and 26 restaurant openings in International markets. To pursue the opportunities we have identified in the United States and accelerate development, we are offering a three-year waiver of PJMF contributions for new restaurants opened in 2025, which is intended to deliver higher restaurant-level profit margins, add scale in key markets and attract growth-driven franchisees. Additionally, in July 2025 we signed an agreement to sell our ownership stake in a joint venture that operates 85 restaurants, with the transaction expected to close by the end of 2025. We are excited to offer growth-minded franchisees opportunities to expand their businesses and will continue to evaluate refranchising Company-owned restaurants within various Domestic markets, along with considering strategic closures in certain International markets.
International Transformation Plan
In December 2023, the Company announced international transformation initiatives (“International Transformation Plan”) designed to evolve our business structure to deliver an enhanced value proposition to our International customers and franchisees, ensure targeted investments and efficient resource management, and better position certain international markets, including the United Kingdom, for long-term profitable growth and brand strength. Total estimated pre-tax costs associated with the International Transformation Plan are expected to be approximately $35 million (inclusive of the $34.1 million incurred through the second quarter of 2025), the remainder of which we expect to be recognized in 2025. See “Note 9. Restructuring” of “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional details. The Company is in the final stages of executing the International Transformation Plan, which is expected to be completed during 2025.
Global Restaurant Sales and Unit Information
“Comparable sales” represents sales for the same base of restaurants for the same fiscal periods. “Comparable sales growth (decline)” represents the change in year-over-year comparable sales. “Global system-wide restaurant sales” represents total restaurant sales for all Company-owned and franchised restaurants open during the comparable periods, and “Global system-wide restaurant sales growth (decline)” represents the change in global system-wide restaurant sales year-over-year. Comparable sales, Comparable sales growth (decline), Global system-wide restaurant sales and Global system-wide sales growth (decline) exclude franchisees for which we suspended corporate support.
“Equivalent units” represents the number of restaurants open at the beginning of a given period, adjusted for restaurants opened, closed, acquired or sold during the period on a weighted average basis.
We believe Domestic Company-owned, North America franchised, and International Comparable sales growth (decline) and Global system-wide restaurant sales information is useful in analyzing our results since our franchisees pay royalties and marketing fund contributions that are based on a percentage of franchise sales. Comparable sales and Global system-wide restaurant sales results for restaurants operating outside of the United States are reported on a constant dollar basis, which excludes the impact of foreign currency translation. Franchise sales also generate commissary revenue in the United States and in certain international markets. Comparable sales growth (decline) and Global system-wide restaurant sales information is also useful for comparison to industry trends and evaluating the strength of our brand. Management believes the presentation of Global system-wide restaurant sales growth, excluding the impact of foreign currency, provides investors with useful information regarding underlying sales trends and the impact of new unit growth without being impacted by swings in the external factor of foreign currency. Franchise restaurant sales are not included in the Company’s revenues.

Results of Operations
Financial Statement Updates
During the year ended December 29, 2024, the Company implemented several financial statement changes in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, concurrent with the adoption of Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, “Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” These changes evolve and modernize our financial statements and footnotes to increase transparency and better reflect management’s key performance metrics. Presentation changes to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have been applied retrospectively, and as such, the results from the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation.
Additionally, during the year ended December 29, 2024, the Company updated its internal cost allocation methodology to better reflect current levels of time and effort spent managing our different segments. These updates resulted in a higher allocation of previously unallocated corporate expenses to primarily each of the North America franchising and International segments. This update in methodology did not impact total reported expenses and was implemented prospectively beginning with the year ended December 29, 2024, and as such prior-period comparative information has been recast.
Revenues
The following table sets forth the various components of Revenues from the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

|  | Three Months Ended |  | Six Months Ended |  | Increase (Decrease)
(In thousands) |  | June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024 |  | June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024 |  | QTD |  | YTD
Revenues: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Company-owned restaurant sales |  | $ | 178,989 |  |  | $ | 184,640 |  |  | $ | 352,870 |  |  | $ | 375,891 |  |  | (3.1) | % |  | (6.1) | %

Total revenues |  | $ | 529,166 |  | $ | 507,894 |  | $ | 1,047,475 |  | $ | 1,021,810 |  | 4.2 | % |  | 2.5 | %

The comparability of results between 2025 and 2024 is impacted by transactions that have changed the composition of restaurants in the UK during the periods presented. At the beginning of 2024, the Company operated 117 UK Company-owned restaurants. In the second and third quarters of 2024, the Company completed the closure of 43 Company-owned restaurants in the UK and refranchised 60 formerly Company-owned restaurants in the UK. After prior disposal of one mobile restaurant, the Company operated 13 UK Company-owned restaurants subsequent to July 1, 2024. These transactions impact the comparability of revenues and expenses from the International segment during the periods presented. See “Note 9. Restructuring” for additional information on these transactions.
Total revenues increased $21.3 million, or 4.2%, to $529.2 million for the three months ended June 29, 2025 and increased $25.7 million, or 2.5%, to $1.05 billion for the six months ended June 29, 2025, as compared to the prior year comparable periods. Changes in total revenues were impacted by the transactions noted above and as detailed in the discussions below.
Company-owned restaurant sales, which include sales from both Domestic and International Company-owned restaurants, decreased $5.7 million, or 3.1%, for the three months ended June 29, 2025 and decreased $23.0 million, or 6.1%, for the six months ended June 29, 2025, as compared to the prior year comparable periods. The decrease was primarily due to declines of $8.2 million and $20.2 million in revenues from our Company-owned restaurants in the UK, respectively, due to the transactions discussed above. The decrease for the three months ended June 29, 2025 is partially offset by a $2.6 million increase in revenue from our Domestic Company-owned restaurants due to higher average ticket that drove comparable sales growth of 0.3%, partially offset by the refranchising of 15 restaurants in the prior year. The decrease for the six months ended June 29, 2025 is also a result of a $2.8 million decline in revenue from our Domestic Company-
28

owned restaurants, reflecting a 2.1% decline in Domestic comparable sales as a result of lower transaction volumes and the refranchising of 15 restaurants in the prior year, partially offset by higher average ticket.
Franchise royalties and fees, which include revenues generated from both North American and International franchisees, increased $1.8 million, or 3.8%, for the three months ended June 29, 2025 and increased $2.7 million, or 2.8%, for the six months ended June 29, 2025, as compared to the prior year comparable periods. The increases were primarily due to growth in North America franchised equivalent units of 2.7% and 2.8% and growth in International comparable sales of 3.7% and 3.5% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively.
North America franchise restaurant sales increased to $752.3 million, or 2.7% excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, for the three months ended June 29, 2025 as compared to the prior year comparable period. North America franchise restaurant sales increased to $1.51 billion, or 1.1% excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, for the six months ended June 29, 2025 as compared to the prior year comparable period. North America franchise restaurant sales are not included in Company revenues; however, our North America franchise royalties are derived from these sales. The main driver in the higher franchise restaurant sales was the North America equivalent unit growth noted above.
International franchise restaurant sales increased $33.0 million to $324.8 million and increased $54.9 million to $622.1 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively. As mentioned above, the UK transactions in the second and third quarters of 2024 impacted the comparability of International franchise restaurant sales earned in each period. Excluding the impact of the UK restaurant changes and foreign currency fluctuations, International franchise restaurant sales would have increased $21.0 million, or 7.0%, and increased $37.0 million, or 6.3%, for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively. International franchise restaurant sales are not included in Company revenues; however, our international royalty revenue is derived from these sales. The increases were due to growth in International comparable sales of 3.7% and 3.5% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, as well as restaurant growth.
Commissary revenues, which includes sales from our North American and International QC Centers, increased $20.3 million or 9.5% for the three months ended June 29, 2025 and increased $31.7 million or 7.3% for the six months ended June 29, 2025 as compared to the prior year comparable period. The increase for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025 was primarily due to higher prices and higher transaction volumes as compared to the prior year comparable periods.
Other revenues, which primarily includes revenues derived from our online and mobile ordering business, increased $2.7 million, or 13.4%, and increased $5.5 million, or 13.4%, for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, as compared to the prior year comparable periods primarily due to higher revenues generated from technology services as a result of an increase in the technology fee charged to franchisees that began in the second half of 2024.
Advertising funds revenue, which includes the operations of PJMF as well as local and International marketing funds, increased $2.2 million, or 5.2%, and increased $8.8 million, or 11.1%, for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, as compared to the prior year comparable periods. The increases for the three and six month periods were primarily driven by increases in the PJMF contribution percentage, which took effect in the second quarter of 2024, as well as increases to contribution percentages in certain International markets. The increase in advertising funds revenue also results from global system-wide restaurant sales growth of 3.5% and 2.1% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively.

Costs and Expenses
The following table sets forth the various components of Costs and expenses from the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:

(In thousands) |  | Three Months Ended |  | Six Months Ended |  | Increase (Decrease)
| June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024 |  | June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024 |  | QTD |  | YTD
Costs and expenses: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Cost of sales |  | $ | 371,716 |  |  | $ | 363,038 |  |  | $ | 738,212 |  |  | $ | 730,704 |  |  | 2.4 | % |  | 1.0 | %
General and administrative expenses |  | 70,118 |  |  | 57,046 |  |  | 135,285 |  |  | 114,923 |  |  | 22.9 | % |  | 17.7 | %
Depreciation and amortization |  | 18,819 |  |  | 17,594 |  |  | 37,162 |  |  | 35,268 |  |  | 7.0 | % |  | 5.4 | %
Advertising funds expense |  | 44,023 |  |  | 41,990 |  |  | 88,361 |  |  | 78,971 |  |  | 4.8 | % |  | 11.9 | %
Total costs and expenses |  | $ | 504,676 |  |  | $ | 479,668 |  |  | $ | 999,020 |  |  | $ | 959,866 |  |  | 5.2 | % |  | 4.1 | %

Total costs and expenses were approximately $504.7 million, or 95.4% of total revenues, and $999.0 million, or 95.4% of total revenues, for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, as compared to $479.7 million, or 94.4% of total revenues, and $959.9 million, or 93.9% of total revenues in the prior year comparable periods.
Cost of sales consists primarily of Company-owned restaurant and supply chain costs incurred to generate related revenues. Components of cost of sales primarily include food and paper products, labor, freight and delivery, occupancy costs, advertising costs related to Company-owned restaurants, and insurance expense. Cost of sales were $371.7 million and $738.2 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, an increase of $8.7 million and $7.5 million, respectively, from the prior year comparable periods. The increases were due primarily to higher volumes for our Domestic QC Centers, higher food costs for our Domestic Company-owned restaurants, and higher local advertising costs for our Company-owned restaurants. These increases were partially offset by decreases of approximately $5.7 million and $17.0 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, due to lower food and labor costs from our Company-owned restaurants in the UK as a result of the restaurant closures and refranchising transactions discussed above.
Costs of sales by segment for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively, were as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  |  | Six Months Ended |  |

___________________________________
(a)Administrative and other general expenses, net increased by $17.9 million and $31.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025. The increase for the three months ended June 29, 2025 was primarily due to $8.6 million of expenses incurred for incremental marketing investments and a $3.7 million increase from higher incentive compensation under our Management Incentive Plan as compared to prior year comparable period. The six months ended June 29, 2025 were also impacted by expenses resulting from our bi-annual franchise operating conference held in the first quarter of 2025 and lower comparative-period equity compensation costs related to leadership changes during the first quarter of 2024.
(b)Represents costs associated with the Company’s International Restructuring plan. See “Note 9. Restructuring”.
(c)For the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, other costs is comprised of the following:
i.Losses on disposal of equipment incurred in connection with the termination of a COVID-era program that pre-purchased store equipment due to supply chain challenges;
ii.Costs associated with project-based strategic initiatives that are not related to our ongoing operations, and;
iii.Costs incurred, net of anticipated insurance recoveries, arising from tornadoes that struck the Texas Quality Control Center (“QC Center”) as well as the restaurant support center and QC Center in Louisville, Kentucky.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, represents a non-cash impairment charge related to fixed and intangible assets related to certain Domestic restaurants. Refer to Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies of the “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further details.
Depreciation and amortization expenses were $18.8 million, or 3.6% of total revenues, and $37.2 million, or 3.5% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, as compared to $17.6 million, or 3.5% of total revenues and $35.3 million or 3.5% of total revenues for the prior year comparable periods, respectively. The increases were primarily due to higher depreciation expense related to our investments in technology platforms.
Advertising funds expenses were $44.0 million or 99.7% of advertising revenues and $88.4 million or 100.6% of advertising revenues for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, as compared to $42.0 million or 100.0% of advertising revenues and $79.0 million or 99.9% of advertising revenues for the prior year comparable periods, respectively. Advertising funds expense is comprised primarily of expenses incurred by PJMF, which is designed to operate at break-even as it spends all annual contributions received from the system. The increase was primarily due to higher advertising spend resulting from the previously discussed increase in contributions to the national marketing fund. Advertising funds expense also contains expenses incurred through our international marketing funds to support our International business, which may lead to Advertising funds expense being less than or in excess of Advertising funds revenue due to timing differences.

Segment Financial Performance
We evaluate the performance of our reportable segments and allocate resources to them based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation expense, and other adjustments, referred to as adjusted EBITDA. See “Note 11. Segment Information” for further information regarding the Company’s segments. Adjusted EBITDA for each of our reportable segments is summarized in the table below.

|  | Three Months Ended |  | Six Months Ended |  | Increase (Decrease)
(In thousands) |  | June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024 |  | June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024 |  | QTD |  | YTD

International |  | 5,637 |  |  | 3,713 |  |  | 11,019 |  | 7,906 |  | 1,924 |  |  | 3,113 |

Domestic Company-owned restaurants decreased $3.6 million for the three months ended June 29, 2025 primarily due to higher food and labor costs for our Domestic Company-owned restaurants during 2025. Domestic Company-owned restaurants decreased $13.5 million for the six months ended June 29, 2025 primarily due to higher food costs and local advertising costs. Results were also impacted by a 2.1% decline in comparable sales compared to the prior year period.
North America franchising decreased $0.4 million and $1.6 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, primarily due to higher incentive compensation allocated to the segment compared to the prior year periods, partially offset by higher royalty and franchise fee revenue as discussed above.
North America commissaries increased $4.6 million and $6.8 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, primarily due to higher prices mentioned previously. This was offset by higher food costs, higher salaries and benefits, and increases in rent due to the sale and subsequent leaseback of two Domestic QC Centers in Texas and Florida in the third quarter of 2024.
International increased $1.9 million and $3.1 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively. The increase was primarily due to operating losses attributable to the UK Company-owned restaurants during the prior year comparable periods, when we owned and operated more restaurants in the UK.

(a) The signage of Income tax expense has been changed from the historic presentation for purposes of signage consistency with other expense items.
Net Interest Expense
Net interest expense decreased $0.3 million and $1.3 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively. The decrease for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025 was primarily due to lower average interest rates during the respective periods.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective income tax rates were 30.5% and 31.6% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, as compared to an income tax rate of 27.7% and 31.3% for the prior year comparable periods, respectively. The higher effective tax rate for the three months ended June 29, 2025 was primarily due to lower pretax book income and tax shortfall generated by vesting of restricted shares in the second quarter of 2025. The effective tax rate was materially consistent between the six months ended June 29, 2025 and the prior year comparable period.

Diluted Earnings Per Common Share
Diluted earnings per common share were $0.28 and $0.56 for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, as compared to $0.37 and $0.82 for the prior year comparable periods, respectively, representing a decrease of $0.09 and $0.26, respectively. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share, a non-GAAP measure, was $0.41 and $0.77 for the three
33

and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, as compared to adjusted diluted earnings per common share of $0.61 and $1.28 for the prior year comparable periods, respectively, representing a decrease of $0.20 and $0.51, respectively. See “Non-GAAP Measures” for additional information.
34

Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we provide certain non-GAAP measures, which present results on an adjusted basis. These are supplemental measures of performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the following: adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted diluted earnings per common share. We believe that our non-GAAP financial measures enable investors to assess the operating performance of our business relative to our performance based on U.S. GAAP results and relative to other companies. We believe that the disclosure of these non-GAAP measures is useful to investors as they reflect metrics that our management team and Board utilize to evaluate our operating performance, allocate resources and administer employee incentive plans. The most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures to adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted diluted earnings per common share are net income, net income attributable to common shareholders and diluted earnings per common share, respectively. These non-GAAP measures should not be construed as a substitute for or a better indicator of the Company’s performance than the Company’s U.S. GAAP results. The table below reconciles our GAAP financial results to our non-GAAP financial measures.

In addition, we present free cash flow in this report, which is a non-GAAP measure. Please see “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Free Cash Flow” for a discussion of why we believe free cash flow provides useful information regarding our financial condition and results of operations, and a reconciliation of free cash flow to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure.
36

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are cash flows from operations and borrowings under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 26, 2025 (the “Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), which amended and restated the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of September 14, 2021 and amended May 30, 2023. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured term loan in a principal amount of $200.0 million (the “Term Loan”) and a senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate available principal amount of $600.0 million (the “PJI Revolving Facility” together with the Term Loan, the “PJI Credit Facilities”). See “Note 8. Debt” for additional detail regarding the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
Our principal uses of cash are operating expenses, capital expenditures, and returning value to our shareholders in the form of cash dividends and share repurchases. Our capital priorities are:
•investing for growth
•maintaining a strong balance sheet, and
•returning capital to shareholders
The Company believes that its balances of cash and cash equivalents and borrowing capacity, along with cash generated by operations and from asset sales, will be sufficient to satisfy its cash requirements, cash dividends, interest payments and share repurchases over the next twelve months and beyond.
Cash Flows
The table below summarizes our cash flows for the six months ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024 (in thousands):

|  | Six Months Ended
|  | June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024
Total cash provided by (used in): |  |  |  |
Operating activities |  | $ | 66,843 |  | $ | 41,957
Investing activities |  | (19,389) |  |  | (23,841) |
Financing activities |  | (52,751) |  |  | (34,428) |
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents |  | 641 |  | 30
Change in cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | (4,656) |  | $ | (16,282)

Operating Activities
Total cash provided by operating activities was $66.8 million for the six months ended June 29, 2025 compared to $42.0 million for the corresponding period of 2024. The increase of $24.9 million primarily reflects a favorable impact from timing of collections and marketing spend within our advertising fund as well as favorable changes in working capital accounts compared to the prior period.
Investing Activities
Total cash used in investing activities was $19.4 million for the six months ended June 29, 2025 compared to $23.8 million for the same period in 2024. The decrease in cash used in investing activities is due primarily to a $2.7 million year-over-year increase in repayments of notes issued and a $2.5 million year-over-year increase in investment distributions from our deferred compensation plan.
Our capital expenditures consisted primarily of capital investments for existing restaurants and new restaurant locations as well as investments in technology platforms. We estimate that our capital expenditures during 2025 will be approximately $75 million to $85 million, which primarily consists of the acquisition of sites and construction costs for new Company-owned restaurants that have opened or that we expect to open during 2025. This estimate also includes an estimated $8 million to $13 million of capital expenditures related to rebuilding tornado damage incurred at our Texas QC Center and Louisville restaurant support center and QC Center. These amounts are subject to change as repair and reconstruction work is ongoing, and we anticipate these amounts will be recovered under our insurance policy, subject to our policy deductibles. We intend to fund our capital expenditures with cash generated by operations and borrowings under our PJI Revolving Facility, as necessary.
37

Financing Activities
Total cash used in financing activities was $52.8 million for the six months ended June 29, 2025 compared to $34.4 million for the same period of 2024. During the first six months of 2025, the principal financing outflows were related to dividend payments of $30.5 million and payments related to financing leases of $4.9 million. Cash used in financing activities also reflects the impact of net repayments of $16.1 million under the PJI Revolving Facility throughout the year, which includes the refinancing of our debt via the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement during the first quarter of 2025 that resulted in borrowings of $200.0 million under the new Term Loan, from which the proceeds were used to repay $196.8 million to the PJI Revolving Facility as well as $3.2 million in related issuance costs.
In the first six months of 2024, the primary uses of cash for financing activities were $30.2 million in dividend payments, $3.3 million in tax payments on equity award issuances and $4.8 million in payments related to financing leases. These outflows were partially offset by net borrowings of $3.0 million from the PJI Revolving Facility and the PJMF revolving line of credit (the “PJMF Revolving Facility”). There were no share repurchases in the first six months of 2025 or 2024.
Debt
Our outstanding debt as of June 29, 2025 was $733.8 million, which was comprised of $400.0 million principal amount of our 3.875% senior notes (the “Notes”), $200.0 million of Term Loan borrowings, and $133.8 million outstanding under the PJI Revolving Facility. Remaining availability under the PJI Revolving Facility was approximately $466.2 million as of June 29, 2025.
Our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, require customary reporting obligations, and restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, the consummation of certain mergers, consolidations, sales of assets and similar transactions, the making of investments, equity distributions and other restricted payments, and transactions with affiliates, in each case, that are substantially similar to our previous credit agreement (the “Previous Credit Agreement”). In addition, the Company is subject to the following financial covenants substantially similar to those in the Previous Credit Agreement (other than the new liquidity requirement described in clause (3)): (1) a maximum Leverage Ratio of 5.25 to 1.00, subject to the Company’s election to increase the maximum Leverage Ratio by 0.5 to 1.0 in connection with material acquisitions if the Company satisfies certain requirements; (2) a minimum ratio of EBITDA plus consolidated rental expense to consolidated interest expense plus consolidated rental expense of 2.00 to 1.00; and (3) applicable only during the time period beginning 91 days prior to the maturity of the Company’s existing senior notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”) and until such Senior Notes are repaid in full or the maturity thereof is extended at least 91 days after the latest maturity date applicable to the Credit Facilities, liquidity of not less than $150.0 million. The Company is also subject to certain financial covenants, as shown in the following table, that could restrict or impose constraints on the liquidity of our business:

|  | Permitted Ratio |  | Actual Ratio as of June 29, 2025
Leverage ratio |  | Not to exceed 5.25 to 1.0 |  | 3.4 to 1.0
Interest coverage ratio |  | Not less than 2.00 to 1.0 |  | 3.0 to 1.0

Our leverage ratio is defined as outstanding debt divided by Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) for the most recent four fiscal quarters. Our interest coverage ratio is defined as the sum of Consolidated EBITDA and consolidated rental expense for the most recent four fiscal quarters divided by the sum of consolidated interest expense and consolidated rental expense for the most recent four fiscal quarters. We were in compliance with all financial covenants as of June 29, 2025.
In addition, the Indenture governing the Notes contains customary covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit our ability and the ability of certain of our subsidiaries to: incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness; pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem our capital stock; prepay, redeem or repurchase certain debt; issue certain preferred stock or similar equity securities; make loans and investments; sell assets; incur liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into agreements restricting our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets.
The PJMF Revolving Facility consists of a $30.0 million revolving line of credit pursuant to a Revolving Loan Agreement, dated September 30, 2015 and most recently amended on September 30, 2024. We did not have any borrowings under the

PJMF Revolving Facility as of June 29, 2025 or December 29, 2024. The PJMF operating results and the related debt outstanding do not impact the financial covenants under the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
Refer to Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024 for additional information.
Share Repurchases
As part of our long-term growth and capital allocation strategy, we are committed to investing in share repurchases to provide ongoing value and enhanced returns to our shareholders. On October 28, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program with an indefinite duration for up to $425.0 million of the Company’s common stock. There was no share repurchase activity during the three and six months ended June 29, 2025 or June 30, 2024. Approximately $90.2 million remained available under the Company’s share repurchase program as of June 29, 2025.
The Company utilizes a written trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, from time to time to facilitate the repurchase of shares of our common stock under this share repurchase program. There can be no assurance that we will repurchase shares of our common stock either through a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan or otherwise.
Dividends
The Company paid aggregate cash dividends to common stockholders of $30.5 million ($0.92 per share) and $30.2 million ($0.92 per share) for the six months ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. On August 1, 2025, our Board of Directors declared a third quarter dividend of $0.46 per common share (approximately $15.4 million in the aggregate), which will be paid on August 29, 2025 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 18, 2025. The declaration and payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors.
Enactment of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”
On July 4, 2025, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” a comprehensive tax and spending bill, was signed into U.S. law. The legislation includes changes to the U.S. corporate tax system; refer to “Note 12. Subsequent Events” of the “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for further details. We anticipate that the enactment of this bill will result in an estimated $10 million to $15 million reduction in cash taxes to be paid during the second half of 2025 due to the reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation and full expensing for domestic research and development expenditures.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net cash provided by operating activities (from the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows) less the purchases of property and equipment, excluding purchases of property and equipment related to damages from natural disasters. We view free cash flow as an important financial measure because it is one factor that management uses in determining the amount of cash available for discretionary investment. Free cash flow is not a term defined by GAAP, and as a result, our measure of free cash flow might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Free cash flow should not be construed as a substitute for or a better indicator of the Company’s performance than the Company’s GAAP measures.
The Company’s free cash flow was as follows for the six month periods of 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):

|  |  |  | Six Months Ended
|  |  |  |  |  | June 29, 2025 |  | June 30, 2024
Net cash provided by operating activities |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 66,843 |  | $ | 41,957
Purchases of property and equipment |  |  |  |  |  | (30,305) |  |  | (29,155) |
Free cash flow |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 36,538 |  | $ | 12,802

Cash Requirements
There have been no material changes in our cash requirements other than in the ordinary course of business since the end of 2024. Refer to “Contractual Obligations” presented within “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
39

Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024 for additional information regarding our cash requirements.
Impact of Inflation and Macroeconomic Trends
In recent years, we have experienced price increases in food items and other commodities, labor and benefits, and fuel and other energy costs. Inflationary pressures affect our profitability both directly, in our Company-owned restaurants and delivery mechanisms and through gross margins experienced by sales of food and supply items via our QC Centers, as well as indirectly, through higher food ingredient and paper and supply costs, rising fees from delivery aggregators driven by higher wage demands and increases in the cost of gasoline that, once reflected in upward price adjustments on their fees, can exert downward pressure on unit sales, reducing royalty fees we realize from our Domestic and International franchisees. Compensating menu price increases are subject to competitive pressure in the markets in which we operate. Expense control measures are also deployed to offset higher costs when possible. Food costs, in particular the cost of cheese, are managed to an extent by pricing agreements with suppliers and forward purchase contracts we enter into, as discussed in “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”
While we are still evaluating the potential impact of proposed tariffs as well as our ability to manage their impacts, we currently do not believe that tariffs in the form currently proposed by the United States government would have a significant negative impact to our domestic business, as a substantial proportion of our ingredients and supply items are sourced domestically. However, the extent to which tariffs may increase the price of other goods and services and how they may alter discretionary spending patterns by our customers or impact our franchisees’ profitability is currently unknown and may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and/or financial position.

Certain matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other Company communications that are not statements of historical fact constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Generally, the use of words such as “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “will,” “forecast,” “outlook”, “plan,” “project,” or similar words identify forward-looking statements that we intend to be included within the safe harbor protections provided by the federal securities laws.

•the ability of the Company and its franchisees to meet planned growth targets and operate new and existing restaurants profitably, including difficulties finding qualified franchisees, restaurant level employees or suitable sites;
•increases in insurance claims and related costs for programs funded by the Company up to certain retention limits, including medical, owned and non-owned vehicles, workers’ compensation, general liability and property;
•disruption of our supply chain or commissary operations which could be caused by our sole source of supply of mozzarella cheese, desserts, garlic cups or limited source of suppliers for other key ingredients or more generally due to weather, natural disasters including drought, disease, or geopolitical or other disruptions beyond our control;
•increased risks associated with our International operations, including economic and political conditions, instability or uncertainty in our international markets, especially emerging markets, fluctuations in currency exchange rates, difficulty in meeting planned sales targets, regulatory changes, increased tariffs and other trade barriers, and new restaurant growth;

These and other risk factors are discussed in detail in “Part I. Item 1A. – Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise, except as required by law.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes on our PJI Revolving Facility and PJMF Revolving Facility. We attempt to minimize interest rate risk exposure by fixing our interest rate through the utilization of interest rate swaps, which are derivative financial instruments. Our swaps are entered into with financial institutions that participate in the PJI Revolving Facility. By using a derivative instrument to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates, we expose ourselves to credit risk due to the possible failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. We do not enter into contracts for trading purposes and do not use leveraged instruments. The market risks associated with our debt obligations as of June 29, 2025 have not changed from those reported in “Part II. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024. See “Note 8. Debt” of “Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information on our debt obligations and derivative instruments.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations from our operations outside of the United States, which can adversely impact our revenues, net income and cash flows. Our International operations principally consist of distribution sales to franchised Papa Johns restaurants located in the UK, operation of Company-owned restaurants in the UK, and our franchise sales and support activities, which derive revenues from sales of franchise and development rights and the collection of royalties from our International franchisees. Approximately 8.3% and 8.0% of our revenues were derived from these operations for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively, as compared to 7.8% and 7.9% for the prior year comparable period, respectively.
We have not historically hedged our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations had a favorable impact of less than $1.9 million and a favorable impact of approximately $2.0 million on International revenues for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively; and an unfavorable impact of $0.2 million and a favorable impact of $0.8 million on International revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations had an unfavorable impact of approximately $0.1 million and a favorable impact of approximately $0.1 million on operating income for the three and six months ended June 29, 2025, respectively; and an unfavorable impact of approximately $0.5 million and an unfavorable impact of $1.4 million on operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively.
Commodity Price Risk
In the ordinary course of business, the food and paper products we purchase, including cheese (our largest ingredient cost), are subject to seasonal fluctuations, weather, availability, demand and other factors that are beyond our control. We have pricing agreements with some of our vendors, including forward pricing agreements for a portion of our cheese purchases for our Domestic Company-owned restaurants, which are accounted for as normal purchases; however, we still remain exposed to ongoing commodity volatility, and increases in commodity prices or food costs, including as a result of inflation, could negatively impact our business, financial condition or results of operations. We have not historically entered into other financial instruments that would be accounted for as hedging instruments to manage this risk.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there was no change made in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
