Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation - The unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 28, 2024 have been prepared by the Company. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the unaudited interim financial information at March 31, 2025, and for all periods presented, have been made. The results of operations during the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or other interim periods. However, the unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 26, 2024.
Beginning on December 27, 2024, the Company’s fiscal year changed from a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Thursday in December of each year to a fiscal year ending on December 31 of each year. Accordingly, effective for its fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, the Company’s quarterly results will be for three month periods ending March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. In this quarterly report, the three months ended March 31, 2025 refers to the period December 27, 2024 through March 31, 2025, and the three months ended March 29, 2024 refers to the period December 29, 2023 through March 28, 2024.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and Amortization - Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment are provided using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or any related lease terms. Depreciation expense totaled $17,831 and $16,014 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 28, 2024, respectively.
Assets Held for Sale Assets Held for Sale – Long-lived assets that are expected to be sold within the next 12 months and meet the other relevant held-for-sale criteria are classified as assets held for sale and included within current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Assets held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying value or their fair value less costs to sell the asset.
Long-Lived Assets Long-Lived Assets – The Company periodically considers whether indicators of impairment of long-lived assets held for use are present. This includes quantitative and qualitative factors, including evaluating the historical actual operating performance of the long-lived assets and assessing the potential impact of recent events and transactions impacting the long-lived assets. If such indicators are present, the Company determines if the long-lived assets are recoverable by assessing whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to such assets is less than their carrying amounts. If the long-lived assets are not recoverable, the Company recognizes any impairment losses based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over their fair value.
Goodwill
Goodwill – The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently if certain indicators arise. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter. There were no indicators of impairment identified during the three months ended March 31, 2025 or March 28, 2024.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Earnings (Loss) Per Share - Net earnings (loss) per share (EPS) of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock is computed using the two class method. Basic net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, adjusted for the effect of dilutive stock options, restricted stock units, performance stock units and convertible debt instruments using the if-converted method. Convertible Class B Common Stock and convertible debt instruments are reflected on an if-converted basis when dilutive to Common Stock. The computation of the diluted net earnings (loss) per share of Common Stock assumes the conversion of Class B Common Stock in periods that have net earnings since it would be dilutive to Common Stock earnings per share, while the diluted net earnings (loss) per share of Class B Common Stock does not assume the conversion of those shares.
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to cash dividends per share equal to 110% of all dividends declared and paid on each share of Class B Common Stock. As such, the undistributed earnings (losses) for each period are allocated based on the proportionate share of entitled cash dividends.
The following table illustrates the computation of Common Stock basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per share, provides a reconciliation of the number of weighted-average basic and diluted shares outstanding, when applicable, and provides the weighted-average number of anti-dilutive shares excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding:

For the periods when the Company reports a net loss, common stock equivalents, restricted stock units, performance stock units, and shares related to the convertible senior notes are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect. Performance stock units are considered anti-dilutive if the performance targets upon which the issuance of the shares are contingent have not been achieved and the respective performance period has not been completed as of the end of the current period. Shares related to the convertible senior notes were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share in periods when the effect would have been anti-dilutive using the if-converted method.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements - Certain financial assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value in the consolidated financial statements. Some are measured on a recurring basis while others are measured on a non-recurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. A fair value measurement assumes that a transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability.
The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in one of the following categories:
Level 1 - Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date. At March 31, 2025 and December 26, 2024, the Company’s $7,968 and $8,142, respectively, of debt and equity securities classified as trading were valued using Level 1 pricing inputs and were included in other current assets. At March 31, 2025 and December 26, 2024, the Company had $0 and $19,002, respectively, of investments in money market funds which were valued using Level 1 pricing inputs and were included in cash and cash equivalents.
Level 2 - Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on pricing inputs that were either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. At each of March 31, 2025 and December 26, 2024, none of the Company’s recorded assets or liabilities were measured using Level 2 pricing inputs.
Level 3 - Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on valuation models with significant unobservable pricing inputs and which result in the use of management estimates. At each of March 31, 2025 and December 26, 2024, none of the Company’s recorded assets or liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis at fair market value were valued using Level 3 pricing inputs.
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments (including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable) approximates fair value. The fair value of the Company’s $160,000 of senior notes, valued using Level 2 pricing inputs, is approximately $158,609 at March 31, 2025, determined based upon discounted cash flows using current market interest rates for financial instruments with a similar average remaining life. The carrying amounts of the Company’s remaining long-term debt approximate their fair values, determined using current rates for similar instruments, or Level 2 pricing inputs.

New Accounting Pronouncements
New Accounting Pronouncements - In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU No. 2023-09). ASU No. 2023-09 requires on an annual basis specific category disclosures in the rate reconciliation, additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold within the rate reconciliation, and additional disclosures related to income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2025 and must be applied prospectively with retrospective application permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact that ASU No. 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.
On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE), which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities. ASU No. 2024-03 does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements. ASU No. 2024-03 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2027. The Company is evaluating the effect the guidance will have on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.
In fiscal 2024, the Company adopted ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (ASU No. 2023-07), which requires disclosure of incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis. The annual requirements of ASU No. 2023-07 were included in the Company’s fiscal 2024 Annual Report Business Segment footnote (Note 13) and the interim requirements of ASU No. 2023-07 are included in Note 7 of this quarterly report. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company evaluates each lease for classification as either a finance lease or an operating lease according to Accounting Standards Codification No. 842, Leases. The Company performs this evaluation at the inception of the lease and when a modification is made to a lease. The Company leases real estate and equipment with lease terms of one year to 45 years, some of which include options to extend and/or terminate the lease.
The majority of the Company’s lease agreements include fixed rental payments. For those leases with variable payments based on increases in an index subsequent to lease commencement, such payments are recognized as variable lease expense as they occur. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate, including those that depend on the Company’s performance or use of the underlying asset, are also expensed as incurred. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
