Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] |
Revenue | REVENUE Nature of products and services — We derive revenue from retail sales at Jack in the Box and Del Taco company-operated restaurants and rental revenue, royalties, advertising, and franchise and other fees from franchise-operated restaurants. Our franchise arrangements generally provide for an initial franchise fee per restaurant for a 20-year term, and generally require that franchisees pay royalty and marketing fees based upon a percentage of gross sales. The agreements also require franchisees to pay technology fees, as well as sourcing fees for Jack in the Box franchise agreements.

In October 2022, a Jack in the Box franchise operator paid the Company $7.3 million in order to sell his restaurants to a new franchisee at the current standard royalty rate, which is lower than the royalty rate in the existing franchise agreements. The payment represented the difference between the existing royalty rate and the new royalty rate based on projected future sales for the remaining term of the existing agreements. The payment was non-refundable and not subject to any adjustments based on actual future sales. The Company determined the transaction represented the termination of the existing agreement rather than the transfer of an agreement between franchisees. As such, the $7.3 million was recognized in franchise royalty revenue during the first quarter of 2023. Contract liabilities — Our contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue resulting from initial fees received from franchisees for new restaurant openings or new franchise terms, which are generally recognized over the franchise term. We classify these contract liabilities within “Accrued liabilities” and “Other long-term liabilities” in our consolidated balance sheets. A summary of significant changes in our contract liabilities is presented below (in thousands):
|  | 2024 |  | 2023
Deferred franchise and development fees at beginning of period |  | $ | 50,474 |  |  | $ | 46,449 |
Revenue recognized during the period |  | (5,854) |  |  | (5,469) |
Additions during the period |  | 7,370 |  |  | 9,494 |
Deferred franchise and development fees at end of period |  | $ | 51,990 |  |  | $ | 50,474 |
As of September 29, 2024, approximately $9.2 million of development fees related to unopened stores are included in deferred revenue. Timing of revenue recognition is dependent upon the timing of store openings and are recognized over the franchise term at the date of opening. The following table reflects the estimated franchise fees to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied at the end of the period (in thousands):
2025 |  | $ | 5,286 |
2026 |  | 4,953 |
2027 |  | 4,623 |
2028 |  | 4,008 |
2029 |  | 3,383 |
Thereafter |  | 20,580 |
|  | $ | 42,833 |
We have applied the optional exemption, as provided for under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which allows us to not disclose the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations when the transaction price is a sales-based royalty.
