Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited; tabular amounts in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

March 22, 2026

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 for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. Additionally, the condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 28, 2025 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. Certain captions have been conformed to the current period presentation. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2025 included in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 23, 2026 (the “2025 Form 10-K”).

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Operating results for the first quarter ended March 22, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the 53-week fiscal year ending January 3, 2027.

2. Segment Information

The Company has three reportable segments: (i) U.S. stores; (ii) supply chain; and (iii) international franchise.

The Company’s operations are organized by management on the combined basis of line of business and geography. The U.S. stores segment includes operations with respect to all franchised and Company-owned stores throughout the U.S. The supply chain segment primarily includes the distribution of food and, to a lesser extent, other products, from the Company’s supply chain center operations in the U.S. and Canada. The international franchise segment includes operations related to the Company’s franchising business in foreign markets. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer, and beginning in the first quarter of 2026, he evaluates the performance of the Company’s segments and allocates resources to them based on Segment Adjusted Income from Operations which represents income from operations for the reportable segments, excluding gains and losses from the sale of assets, refranchising gains and losses and certain corporate administrative costs that have not been allocated to a reportable segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker uses Segment Adjusted Income from Operations to determine future business objectives and targets and for long-range planning for the reportable segments, as well as to evaluate their operating performance.

The tables below summarize the financial information, including revenues, significant segment expenses, Segment Adjusted Income from Operations, capital expenditures and depreciation and amortization, concerning the Company’s reportable segments for the first quarters ended March 22, 2026 and March 23, 2025. Intersegment revenues are comprised of sales of food and, to a lesser extent, other products, from the supply chain segment to the Company-owned stores in the U.S. stores segment. Intersegment sales prices are market based.

(1)		Cost of sales - other, includes delivery, occupancy costs (including rent, telephone, utilities, depreciation and amortization) and insurance expense.


(2)		General and administrative expense consists primarily of labor cost, depreciation and amortization, computer expenses, professional fees, travel and entertainment, rent, insurance and other. Gains and losses from the sale of assets and refranchising gains and losses are not included in the measurement of Segment Adjusted Income from Operations. Non-cash equity-based compensation expense is not allocated to the reportable segments.


(3)		The Company also had $8.6 million and $8.7 million of other capital expenditures not attributable to the reportable segments primarily representing capitalized software in the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively.
(4)		Segment depreciation and amortization reflects amounts included within cost of sales - other and general and administrative expenses. The Company also had $8.1 million and $8.3 million of depreciation and amortization expense included in general and administrative expense not allocated to the reportable segments in the first quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The following table reconciles Segment Adjusted Income from Operations to income before provision for income taxes:


	Fiscal Quarter Ended
	March 22, 2026			March 23, 2025
Segment Adjusted Income from Operations	$	267,387		$	256,281

Other (expense) income		(5,990	)		24,027
Interest income		2,502			3,945
Interest expense		(46,227	)		(45,585	)
Income before provision for income taxes	$	180,642		$	192,482


(1)		Represents corporate administrative costs that have not been allocated to a reportable segment including labor (including non-cash equity-based compensation expense), depreciation and amortization, computer expenses, professional fees, travel and entertainment, rent, insurance and other corporate administrative costs.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker is not regularly provided financial information related to the assets of the reportable segments, and he does not evaluate their performance or allocate resources to them based on assets. Therefore, total assets by reportable segment are not included in the Company’s segment disclosures.

5. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements enable the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The Company classifies and discloses assets and liabilities carried at fair value in one of the following three categories:

Fair Value of Debt

The estimated fair values of the Company’s notes are classified as Level 2 measurements, as the Company estimates the fair value amount by using available market information. The Company obtained quotes from two separate brokerage firms that are knowledgeable about the Company’s notes and, at times, trade these notes. The Company also performed its own internal analysis based on the information gathered from public markets, including information on notes that are similar to those of the Company. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to estimate fair value. Accordingly, the fair value estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amount that the Company or the noteholders could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair values stated below.

Management estimated the approximate fair values of the Company’s notes as follows:


	March 22, 2026				December 28, 2025
	Principal Amount		Fair Value		Principal Amount		Fair Value
2017 Ten-Year Notes	$	940,000	$	932,480	$	940,000	$	934,360
2018 9.25-Year Notes		379,000		377,863		379,000		377,863
2019 Ten-Year Notes		648,000		620,784		648,000		624,024
2021 7.5-Year Notes		826,625		782,814		826,625		785,294
2021 Ten-Year Notes		972,500		883,030		972,500		893,728
2025 Five-Year Notes		500,000		494,500		500,000		503,000

The Company had no outstanding borrowings under its variable funding notes at March 22, 2026 or December 28, 2025.

6. Leverage Ratio and Debt Classification

While the Company’s senior notes are outstanding, scheduled payments of principal and interest are required to be made on a quarterly basis. In accordance with the Company’s debt agreements, the payment of principal on the 2025 Five-Year Notes and the 2025 Seven-Year Notes may be suspended if either the Holdco Leverage Ratio or Senior Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 5.5x total debt to either Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Securitized Net Cash Flow, each as defined in the indenture governing the securitized debt, and no catch-up provisions are applicable. In accordance with the Company’s debt agreements, the payment of principal on the 2021 7.5-Year Notes, 2021 Ten-Year Notes, 2019 Ten-Year Notes, 2018 9.25-Year Notes and 2017 Ten-Year Notes may be suspended if the Holdco Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 5.0x total debt to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, each as defined in the indenture governing the securitized debt, and no catch-up provisions are applicable. As of the end of the first quarter of 2026 and the end of the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company satisfied the non-amortization tests for each respective series of notes, and accordingly, the outstanding principal amounts of the notes have been classified as long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 22, 2026 and December 28, 2025.

11. New Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has considered all new accounting standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The Company has not yet adopted the following standards:

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires disclosure in the notes to the consolidated financial statements on an annual and interim basis, amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization for all expense captions presented on the face of the consolidated statements of income. The standard also requires a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in those expense captions that are not separately disaggregated. The standard also requires disclosure of the composition and amount of selling expenses.

ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and early adoption is permitted. The standard may be adopted either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (“ASU 2025-06”), to modernize the accounting guidance for the costs to develop software for internal use. The standard applies to costs incurred to develop or obtain software for internal use. ASU 2025-06 amends the existing standard that refers to various stages of a software development project to align better with current software development methods, such as agile programming. Under the new standard, entities will commence capitalizing eligible costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The new standard also supersedes the guidance related to costs incurred to develop a website.

ASU 2025-06 guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The guidance can be applied on a prospective basis, a modified basis for in-process projects or on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

(Unaudited; tabular amounts in millions, except percentages and store data)

The 2026 and 2025 first quarters referenced herein represent the twelve-week periods ended March 22, 2026 and March 23, 2025, respectively. In this section, we discuss the results of our operations for the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025.

Overview

Domino’s is the largest pizza company in the world, with more than 22,300 locations in over 90 markets around the world as of March 22, 2026, and operates two distinct service models within its stores, with a significant business in both delivery and carryout. We are a highly recognized global brand, and we focus on value while serving neighborhoods locally through our large worldwide network of franchise owners and U.S. Company-owned stores through both the delivery and carryout service models. We have been selling quality, affordable food to our customers since 1960. We became “Domino’s Pizza” in 1965 and opened our first franchised store in 1967. For more than 65 years, we have built Domino’s into one of the most widely-recognized consumer brands in the world. We believe our commitment to value, convenience, quality and new products continues to keep consumers engaged with the brand.

We are primarily a franchisor, with approximately 99% of Domino’s global stores owned and operated by our independent franchisees as of March 22, 2026. Franchising enables an individual to be a business owner and maintain control over all employment-related matters and pricing decisions, while also benefiting from the strength of the Domino’s global brand and operating system with limited capital investment by us.

Domino’s business model is straightforward: Domino’s stores handcraft and serve quality food at a competitive price, with easy ordering access and efficient service, enhanced by our technological innovations. Our hand-tossed dough is made fresh and distributed to stores around the world by us and our franchisees.

Domino’s generates revenues and earnings by charging royalties and fees to our franchisees. Royalties are ongoing percent-of-sales fees for use of the Domino’s® brand marks. We also generate revenues and earnings by selling food and, to a lesser extent, other products to franchisees through our supply chain operations primarily in the U.S. and Canada and by operating a number of Company-owned stores in the U.S. Franchisees profit by selling pizza and other complementary items to their local customers. In our international markets, we generally grant geographical rights to the Domino’s Pizza® brand to master franchisees. These master franchisees are charged with developing their geographical area, and they may profit by sub-franchising and selling food and, to a lesser extent, other products to those sub-franchisees, as well as by running pizza stores. We believe that everyone in the system can benefit from the franchise model, including the end consumer, who can purchase Domino’s menu items for themselves and their family conveniently and economically.

Domino’s business model can yield strong returns for our franchise owners and the Company. It can also yield significant cash flows to us, through consistent franchise royalty and supply chain revenue streams, all within an asset-light model. We have historically returned cash to shareholders through dividend payments and share repurchases. Domino’s financial results are driven largely by retail sales at our stores. Changes in retail sales are primarily driven by same store sales growth and net store growth. We actively monitor both of these metrics, as they directly impact our revenues and profits, and we strive to consistently increase both metrics. Retail sales drive royalty payments from franchisees, as well as Company-owned store and supply chain revenues.

At Domino’s, we believe we have a proven business model for success that has historically driven strong returns for our shareholders. Our Hungry for MORE strategy aims to generate MORE sales, MORE stores and MORE profits. The strategic imperatives of our Hungry for MORE strategy are as follows:

Most Delicious Food: We believe we have the best pizza in the industry, and our menu has even more mouthwatering options beyond pizza. We will continue to showcase the breadth of our menu, while highlighting the deliciousness of our food through our innovative marketing promotions.

Operational Excellence: We are relentless in our focus on convenience, consistency and efficiency for our customers.

Renowned Value: We are committed to continuing to offer competitive pricing and personalized value for our customers that is innovative and memorable.

Enhanced by Best-in-Class Franchisees: Our franchisees play a vital role in driving results and excitement across the more than 90 markets in which we operate.

First Quarter of 2026 Highlights

As discussed above, our Hungry for MORE strategy aims to generate MORE sales, MORE stores and MORE profits.

•

MORE Sales: Global retail sales, excluding foreign currency impact (which includes total retail sales at Company-owned and franchised stores worldwide), increased 3.4% as compared to the first quarter of 2025. U.S. retail sales increased 2.8% and international retail sales, excluding foreign currency impact, increased 4.0% as compared to the first quarter of 2025. Same store sales increased 0.9% in our U.S. stores and declined 0.4% in our international stores (excluding foreign currency impact).

•

MORE Stores: Global net store growth of 180, including 19 net store openings in the U.S. and 161 net store openings internationally.

•

MORE Profits: Income from operations increased 9.6%.

Excluding the positive impact of foreign currency, Domino’s experienced global retail sales growth during the first quarter of 2026, driven by same store sales growth in the U.S. and net store growth in both our U.S. and international businesses. These factors, as well as gross margin dollar improvement within supply chain and a pre-tax realized gain on the sale of our fully depreciated corporate aircraft, also contributed to an increase in income from operations. Overall, we believe our global retail sales growth, excluding foreign currency impact, marketing initiatives, operations and emphasis on technology have combined to strengthen our brand. These financial and statistical measures are described in additional detail below.

Statistical Measures

The tables below outline certain statistical measures we utilize to analyze our performance. This historical data is not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any future period.

Global Retail Sales

Global retail sales is a commonly used statistical measure in the quick-service restaurant industry that is important to understanding performance. Global retail sales refers to total worldwide retail sales at Company-owned and franchised stores. We believe global retail sales information is useful in analyzing revenues because franchisees pay royalties and, in the U.S., advertising fees that are based on a percentage of franchise retail sales. We review comparable industry global retail sales information to assess business trends and to track the growth of the Domino’s Pizza brand, and we believe they are indicative of the financial health of our franchisee base. In addition, supply chain revenues are directly impacted by changes in franchise retail sales in the U.S. and Canada. As a result, sales by Domino’s franchisees have a direct effect on our profitability. Retail sales for franchised stores are reported to us by our franchisees and are not included in our revenues. The amounts below are presented in millions of U.S. dollars.


	First Quarter of 2026		First Quarter of 2025
Global retail sales:
U.S. stores	$	2,302.6	$	2,240.8
International stores		2,437.1		2,223.5
Total	$	4,739.7	$	4,464.3

Global Retail Sales Growth, Excluding Foreign Currency Impact

Global retail sales growth, excluding foreign currency impact, is a commonly used statistical measure in the quick-service restaurant industry that is important to understanding performance. Global retail sales growth, excluding foreign currency impact is calculated as the change of international local currency global retail sales against the comparable period of the prior year. Changes in global retail sales growth, excluding foreign currency impact are primarily driven by same store sales growth and net store growth.


	First Quarter of 2026	First Quarter of 2025
U.S. stores	+ 2.8%	+ 1.3%
International stores (excluding foreign currency impact)	+ 4.0%	+ 8.2%
Total (excluding foreign currency impact)	+ 3.4%	+ 4.7%

Same Store Sales Growth

Same store sales growth is a commonly used statistical measure in the quick-service restaurant industry that is important to understanding performance. Same store sales growth is calculated for a given period by including only sales from stores that also had sales in the comparable weeks of both periods. International same store sales growth is calculated similarly to U.S. same store sales growth. Changes in international same store sales are reported on a constant dollar basis, which reflects changes in international local currency sales. Same store sales growth for transferred stores is reflected in their current classification.


	First Quarter of 2026	First Quarter of 2025
U.S. Company-owned stores	+ 1.5%	(2.9)%
U.S. franchise stores	+ 0.8%	(0.4)%
U.S. stores	+ 0.9%	(0.5)%
International stores (excluding foreign currency impact)	(0.4)%	+ 3.7%

U.S. same store sales increased 0.9% in the first quarter of 2026, rolling over a decline in U.S. same store sales of 0.5% in the first quarter of 2025. The increase in U.S. same store sales was driven by both higher average ticket and higher customer transaction counts. International same store sales (excluding foreign currency impact) declined 0.4% in the first quarter of 2026, rolling over an increase in international same store sales (excluding foreign currency impact) of 3.7% in the first quarter of 2025.

Store Growth Activity

Net store growth is a commonly used statistical measure in the quick-service restaurant industry that is important to understanding performance. Net store growth is calculated by netting gross store openings with gross store closures during the period. Transfers between Company-owned stores and franchised stores are excluded from the calculation of net store growth.

U.S. Company-owned stores	$	82.1	7.1	%	$	91.6	8.2	%
U.S. franchise royalties and fees		158.0	13.7	%		151.0	13.6	%

Total revenues	$	1,150.6	100.0	%	$	1,112.1	100.0	%

Revenues primarily consist of retail sales from our Company-owned stores, royalties and fees and advertising contributions from our U.S. franchised stores, royalties and fees from our international franchised stores and sales of food and, to a lesser extent, other products from our supply chain centers to substantially all of our U.S. franchised stores and certain international franchised stores. Company-owned store and franchised store revenues may vary from period to period due to changes in store count mix. Supply chain revenues may vary significantly from period to period as a result of fluctuations in commodity prices as well as the mix of products we sell.

Consolidated revenues increased $38.5 million, or 3.5%, in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to higher supply chain revenues and higher global franchise royalties and advertising revenues. The increase in supply chain revenues was primarily attributable to an increase in our food basket pricing to stores and higher order volumes, but these increases were partially offset by a shift in the relative mix of products we sell. The increases in U.S. franchise royalties and advertising revenues were driven primarily by net store growth during the trailing four quarters and higher same store sales. International franchise royalties increased primarily due to the positive impact of foreign currency exchange rates on international franchise royalty revenues of $3.6 million, as well as net store growth during the trailing four quarters. These changes in revenues are described in more detail below.

U.S. Stores


	First Quarter of 2026				First Quarter of 2025
U.S. Company-owned stores	$	82.1	22.2	%	$	91.6	25.0	%
U.S. franchise royalties and fees		158.0	42.6	%		151.0	41.2	%
U.S. franchise advertising		130.5	35.2	%		124.0	33.8	%
Total U.S. stores revenues	$	370.6	100.0	%	$	366.6	100.0	%

U.S. Company-owned Stores

Revenues from U.S. Company-owned store operations decreased $9.5 million, or 10.4%, in the first quarter of 2026 primarily driven by the refranchising of the Maryland market in May 2025. This decrease was partially offset by higher same store sales.

U.S. Company-owned same store sales increased 1.5% in the first quarter of 2026 and declined 2.9% in the first quarter of 2025.

U.S. Franchise Royalties and Fees

Revenues from U.S. franchise royalties and fees increased $7.0 million, or 4.6%, in the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to an increase in the average number of U.S. franchised stores open during the period resulting from net store growth and higher same store sales.

U.S. franchise same store sales increased 0.8% in the first quarter of 2026 and declined 0.4% in the first quarter of 2025.

U.S. Franchise Advertising

Revenues from U.S. franchise advertising increased $6.6 million, or 5.3%, in the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to an increase in the average number of U.S. franchised stores open during the period resulting from net store growth, a decrease in advertising incentives and higher same store sales.

Supply Chain

Supply chain revenues increased $29.0 million, or 4.3%, in the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to an increase in our food basket pricing to stores and higher order volumes, but these increases were partially offset by a shift in the relative mix of products we sell. Our food basket pricing to stores increased 2.6% in the first quarter of 2026, which resulted in an estimated $16 million increase in supply chain revenues. The food basket pricing change, a statistical measure utilized by management, is calculated as the percentage change of the food basket (including both food and cardboard products) purchased by an average U.S. store (based on average weekly unit sales) from our U.S. supply chain centers against the comparable period of the prior year. We believe this measure is important to understanding Company performance because as our food basket prices fluctuate, our revenues, cost of sales and gross margin percentages in our supply chain segment also fluctuate.

International Franchise Royalties and Fee Revenues

Revenues from international franchise royalties and fees increased $5.4 million, or 7.2%, in the first quarter of 2026 primarily due to the positive impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates of approximately $3.6 million, as well as an increase in the average number of international franchised stores open during the period resulting from net store growth. These increases were partially offset by a decline in international same store sales (excluding foreign currency impact) in the first quarter of 2026. The impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on international franchise royalty revenues, a statistical measure utilized by management, is calculated as the difference in international franchise royalty revenues resulting from translating current year local currency results to U.S. dollars at current year exchange rates as compared to prior year exchange rates. We believe this measure is important to understanding Company performance given the significant variability in international franchise royalty revenues that can be driven by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

International franchise same store sales declined 0.4% in the first quarter of 2026 and increased 3.7% in the first quarter of 2025, each excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rates.

Cost of Sales / Gross Margin


	First Quarter of 2026				First Quarter of 2025
Total revenues	$	1,150.6	100.0	%	$	1,112.1	100.0	%
Total cost of sales		686.1	59.6	%		668.9	60.2	%
Gross margin	$	464.5	40.4	%	$	443.1	39.8	%

Consolidated cost of sales consists of U.S. Company-owned store and supply chain costs incurred to generate related revenues. Components of consolidated cost of sales primarily include food and labor costs, as well as other costs including delivery, occupancy costs (including rent, telephone, utilities and depreciation) and insurance expense. Consolidated gross margin (which we define as revenues less cost of sales) increased $21.4 million, or 4.8%, in the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher global franchise royalties and advertising revenues (as discussed above), as well as gross margin dollar growth within supply chain, discussed below. Franchise revenues do not have a cost of sales component, so changes in these revenues have a disproportionate effect on gross margin. Additionally, as food basket prices fluctuate, revenues, cost of sales and gross margin percentages in our supply chain segment also fluctuate, and further, cost of sales, gross margins and gross margin percentages for our U.S. Company-owned stores also fluctuate.

As a percentage of revenues, consolidated gross margin increased 0.6 percentage points to 40.4% in the first quarter of 2026 from 39.8% in the first quarter of 2025. U.S. Company-owned store gross margin decreased 3.8 percentage points in the first quarter of 2026, and supply chain gross margin increased 0.6 percentage points in the first quarter of 2026. Changes in the significant components of gross margin are described in more detail below.

U.S. Company-Owned Store Gross Margin


	First Quarter of 2026				First Quarter of 2025
Revenues	$	82.1	100.0	%	$	91.6	100.0	%
Cost of sales		72.0	87.8	%		76.9	84.0	%
Store gross margin	$	10.1	12.2	%	$	14.7	16.0	%

U.S. Company-owned store gross margin (which does not include certain store-level costs such as royalties and advertising) decreased $4.6 million, or 31.6%, in the first quarter of 2026. As a percentage of store revenues, U.S. Company-owned store gross margin decreased 3.8 percentage points in the first quarter of 2026. These changes in gross margin as a percentage of revenues are discussed in additional detail below.

•

Food costs increased 0.7 percentage points to 30.4% in the first quarter of 2026, driven by the increase in the food basket pricing to stores.

•

Labor costs increased 1.3 percentage points to 33.2% in the first quarter of 2026, due to higher wage rates.

•

Higher insurance costs drove the remaining decrease in U.S. Company-owned store gross margin as a percentage of revenues in the first quarter of 2026.

Supply Chain Gross Margin


	First Quarter of 2026				First Quarter of 2025
Revenues	$	699.0	100.0	%	$	669.9	100.0	%
Cost of sales		614.0	87.8	%		592.0	88.4	%
Supply chain gross margin	$	85.0	12.2	%	$	77.9	11.6	%

Supply chain gross margin increased $7.0 million, or 9.0%, in the first quarter of 2026. As a percentage of supply chain revenues, supply chain gross margin increased 0.6 percentage points in the first quarter of 2026. These changes in gross margin as a percentage of revenues are discussed in additional detail below.

•

Food costs decreased 0.4 percentage points to 70.0% in the first quarter of 2026, driven primarily by procurement productivity, partially offset by the increase in the cost of our food basket.

•

Labor costs were 9.2% in both the first quarter of 2026 and 2025.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased $2.3 million, or 2.1%, in the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher professional fees and computer expenses. These increases were partially offset by approximately $5 million in severance expenses associated with an organizational realignment that took place in the first quarter of 2025 that did not reoccur in 2026.

U.S. Franchise Advertising Expenses

U.S. franchise advertising expenses increased $6.6 million, or 5.3%, in the first quarter of 2026, consistent with the increase in U.S. franchise advertising revenues, as discussed above. U.S. franchise advertising costs are accrued and expensed when the related U.S. franchise advertising revenues are recognized, as our consolidated not-for-profit advertising fund is obligated to expend such revenues on advertising and other activities that promote the Domino’s brand, and these revenues cannot be used for general corporate purposes.

Gain on Sale of Assets

During the first quarter of 2026, we recorded a $7.8 million pre-tax realized gain associated with the sale of our fully depreciated corporate aircraft.

Other (Expense) Income

Other expense was $6.0 million in the first quarter of 2026, while other income was $24.0 million in the first quarter of 2025, each representing the net unrealized losses and gains on our investment in DPC Dash. The recorded amount of our investment is based on the active exchange quoted price for the equity security. Additional information related to our investment in DPC Dash is included in Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net increased $2.1 million, or 5.0%, in the first quarter of 2026, driven primarily by lower interest income on our cash equivalents.

Our weighted average borrowing rate increased to 3.9% in the first quarter of 2026 from 3.8% in the first quarter of 2025.

Provision for Income Taxes

Provision for income taxes decreased $2.0 million, or 4.7%, in the first quarter of 2026 due to lower income before provision for income taxes. The effective tax rate increased to 22.6% during the first quarter of 2026 as compared to 22.3% in the first quarter of 2025.

Segment Adjusted Income from Operations

Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, we evaluate the performance of our reportable segments and allocate resources to them based on Segment Adjusted Income from Operations which represents income from operations for the reportable segments, excluding gains and losses from the sale of assets, refranchising gains and losses and certain corporate administrative costs that have not been allocated to a reportable segment. Our chief operating decision maker uses Segment Adjusted Income from Operations to determine future business objectives and targets and for long-range planning for the reportable segments, as well as to evaluate their operating performance. Segment Adjusted Income from Operations for each of our reportable segments is summarized in the table below. Prior year amounts have been recast to reflect this change in the measure of segment profit used by our chief operating decision maker.


	First Quarter of 2026		First Quarter of 2025
U.S. stores	$	132.4	$	128.9
Supply chain		65.5		63.6
International franchise		69.5		63.7

U.S. Stores

U.S. stores Segment Adjusted Income from Operations increased $3.5 million, or 2.7%, in the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher U.S. franchise royalties and fees revenues, but was partially offset by the $4.6 million decrease in U.S. Company-owned store gross margin discussed above.

U.S. franchise revenues do not have a cost of sales component, so changes in these revenues have a disproportionate effect on U.S. stores Segment Adjusted Income from Operations. U.S. franchise advertising costs are accrued and expensed when the related U.S. franchise advertising revenues are recognized and had no impact on U.S. stores Segment Adjusted Income from Operations.

Supply Chain

Supply chain Segment Adjusted Income from Operations increased $1.9 million, or 3.0%, in the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to the $7.0 million increase in supply chain gross margin discussed above.

International Franchise

International franchise Segment Adjusted Income from Operations increased $5.8 million, or 9.1%, in the first quarter of 2026, primarily due to higher international franchise royalties and fees revenues, as discussed above. International franchise revenues do not have a cost of sales component, so changes in these revenues have a disproportionate effect on international franchise Segment Adjusted Income from Operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, our receivable collection periods and inventory turn rates are faster than the normal payment terms on our current liabilities resulting in efficient deployment of working capital. We generally collect our receivables within three weeks from the date of the related sale and we generally experience multiple inventory turns per month. In addition, our sales are not typically seasonal, which further limits variations in our working capital requirements. As of March 22, 2026, we had working capital of $171.0 million, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents of $183.6 million, advertising fund assets, restricted, of $115.8 million and advertising fund liabilities of $113.4 million. Working capital includes total unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $232.9 million.

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and availability of borrowings under our variable funding notes. During the first quarter of 2026, we experienced an increase in both U.S. and international retail sales (excluding foreign currency impact). Additionally, both our U.S. and international businesses grew store counts during the first quarter of 2026. These factors contributed to our continued ability to generate positive operating cash flows. In addition to our cash flows from operations, we have a variable funding note facility. Our Series 2025-1 Variable Funding Senior Secured Notes, Class A-1 Notes (the “2025 Variable Funding Notes”), allows for advances of up to $320.0 million and issuance of certain other credit instruments, including letters of credit. The letters of credit primarily relate to our casualty insurance programs. As of March 22, 2026, we had no outstanding borrowings and $263.6 million of available borrowing capacity under our 2025 Variable Funding Notes, net of letters of credit issued of $56.4 million.

We expect to continue to use our unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, any excess cash from our refinancing and recapitalization transactions and available borrowings under our 2025 Variable Funding Notes to, among other things, fund working capital requirements, invest in our core business and other strategic opportunities, repay outstanding borrowings under our securitized debt, pay dividends and repurchase and retire shares of our common stock.

Our primary sources of liquidity could be adversely affected by the occurrence of any of the events described under “Risk Factors” in our 2025 Form 10-K. There can be no assurance that our business will generate sufficient cash flows from operations or that future borrowings will be available under our 2025 Variable Funding Notes or otherwise to enable us to service our indebtedness, or to make anticipated capital expenditures. Our future operating performance and our ability to service, extend or refinance our notes and to service, extend or refinance our 2025 Variable Funding Notes will be subject to future economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

Restricted Cash

As of March 22, 2026, we had $133.7 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents held for future principal and interest payments and other working capital requirements of our asset-backed securitization structure, $49.7 million of restricted cash equivalents held in a three-month interest reserve as required by the related debt agreements and $0.2 million of other restricted cash for a total of $183.6 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents. As of March 22, 2026, we also held $82.8 million of advertising fund restricted cash and cash equivalents which can only be used for activities that promote the Domino’s brand.

Long-Term Debt

As of March 22, 2026, we had approximately $4.88 billion of long-term debt. As of March 22, 2026, our fixed rate notes from the recapitalization and refinancing transactions we completed in 2025, 2021, 2019, 2018 and 2017 had original scheduled principal payments of $49.3 million in 2026, $1.34 billion in 2027, $836.4 million in 2028, $647.8 million in 2029, $495.0 million in 2030, $927.5 million in 2031 and $470.0 million in 2032. However, in accordance with our debt agreements, the payment of principal on the 2025 Five-Year Notes and the 2025 Seven-Year Notes may be suspended if either the Holdco Leverage Ratio or Senior Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 5.5x total debt to either Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Securitized Net Cash Flow, each as defined in the indenture governing the securitized debt, and no catch-up provisions are applicable. In accordance with our debt agreements, the payment of principal on the 2021 7.5-Year Notes, 2021 Ten-Year Notes, 2019 Ten-Year Notes, 2018 9.25-Year Notes and 2017 Ten-Year Notes may be suspended if the Holdco Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 5.0x total debt to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, each as defined in the indenture governing the securitized debt, and no catch-up provisions are applicable. As of the end of the first quarter of 2026 and the fourth quarter of 2025, we satisfied the non-amortization tests for each respective series of notes, and accordingly, the outstanding principal amounts of the notes have been classified as long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 22, 2026 and December 28, 2025.

The anticipated repayment date for the 2018 9.25-Year Notes and the 2017 Ten-Year Notes is July 2027. The Company expects to refinance the 2018 9.25-Year Notes and the 2017 Ten-Year Notes prior to the anticipated repayment date. If the Company does not refinance the 2018 9.25-Year Notes and the 2017 Ten-Year Notes prior to the anticipated repayment date, additional interest of at least 5% per annum will accrue and the Company’s cash flows other than a weekly management fee to cover certain operating expenses would be directed to the repayment of the securitized debt.

The notes are subject to certain financial and non-financial covenants, including a debt service coverage ratio calculation. The covenant requires a minimum coverage ratio of 1.75x total debt service to Securitized Net Cash Flow, each as defined in the indenture governing the securitized debt. In the event that certain covenants are not met, the notes may become due and payable on an accelerated schedule.

Share Repurchase Programs

Our share repurchase programs have historically been funded by excess operating cash flows, excess proceeds from our recapitalization transactions and borrowings under our variable funding notes.

During the first quarter of 2026, we repurchased and retired 188,304 shares of our common stock under our Board of Directors-approved share repurchase program for a total of approximately $75.1 million. As of March 22, 2026, we had a total remaining authorized amount for share repurchases of approximately $384.6 million. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2026 and through April 21, 2026, we repurchased and retired an additional 257,545 shares of common stock for a total of approximately $94.4 million. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2026, on April 21, 2026, our Board of Directors authorized an additional share repurchase program to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of our common stock, in addition to the $290.2 million that was previously remaining for a total authorization of $1.29 billion for future share repurchases.

Dividends

On February 18, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a $1.99 per share quarterly dividend on our outstanding common stock for shareholders of record as of March 13, 2026, which was paid on March 30, 2026. We had approximately $68.5 million accrued for common stock dividends at March 22, 2026. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2026, on April 21, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a $1.99 per share quarterly dividend on our outstanding common stock for shareholders of record as of June 15, 2026, to be paid on June 30, 2026.

Sources and Uses of Cash

The following table illustrates the main components of our cash flows:


	First Quarter of 2026			First Quarter of 2025
Cash flows provided by (used in)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	162.0		$	179.1
Net cash used in investing activities		(8.1	)		(16.0	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(88.4	)		(51.9	)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash		(0.1	)		0.3
Change in cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents	$	65.4		$	111.5

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities decreased $17.1 million in the first quarter of 2026, primarily as a result of the negative impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities. The negative impact of changes in operating assets and liabilities of $33.5 million primarily related to the timing of payments on accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025. This increase was partially offset by net income, excluding non-cash adjustments. Net income decreased $9.8 million, however, this decrease was more than offset by the positive impact of non-cash adjustments of $26.8 million (primarily representing the changes in the pre-tax unrealized losses and gains associated with the remeasurement of our investment in DPC Dash and the pre-tax realized gain associated with the sale of our fully depreciated corporate aircraft), resulting in an overall increase to cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025 of $17.0 million.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $8.1 million in the first quarter of 2026, which primarily consisted of $15.0 million of capital expenditures (driven primarily by investments in consumer and store technology, supply chain centers and corporate store operations). This use of cash was partially offset by the net proceeds of $7.8 million associated with the sale of our fully depreciated corporate aircraft.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was $88.4 million in the first quarter of 2026, which included the repurchase of approximately $75.1 million in common stock under our Board of Directors-approved share repurchase program, tax payments for the vesting of restricted stock units of $12.9 million, dividend payments of $1.5 million and repayments of principal amounts related to our finance leases and other financing obligations of $0.8 million. These uses of cash were partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $1.9 million.

Critical Accounting Estimates

For a description of the Company’s critical accounting estimates, refer to “Part II—Item 7—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the 2025 Form 10-K. The Company considers its most significant accounting estimates to be long-lived assets, casualty insurance reserves and income taxes. There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates since December 28, 2025.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market Risk

We do not engage in speculative transactions, nor do we hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. In connection with the refinancings and recapitalizations of our business, we have issued fixed rate notes and entered into variable funding notes, and, at March 22, 2026, we are exposed to interest rate risk on borrowings under our 2025 Variable Funding Notes. As of March 22, 2026, we did not have any outstanding borrowings under our 2025 Variable Funding Notes.

Our 2025 Variable Funding Notes bear interest at fluctuating interest rates based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, plus a spread adjustment. Accordingly, a rising interest rate environment could result in higher interest expense due on borrowings under our 2025 Variable Funding Notes, in which event we may have difficulties making interest payments and funding our other fixed costs, and our available cash flow for general corporate requirements may be adversely affected.

Our fixed-rate debt exposes us to changes in market interest rates reflected in the fair value of the debt and to the risk that the Company may need to refinance maturing debt with new debt at a higher rate.

We are exposed to market risks from changes in food and commodity prices. During the normal course of business, we purchase cheese and certain other food products that are affected by changes in commodity prices and, as a result, we are subject to volatility in our food costs. Severe increases in commodity prices or food costs, including as a result of inflation, could affect the global and U.S. economies and could also adversely impact our business, financial condition or results of operations. We may periodically enter into financial instruments to manage this risk, although we have not done so historically. We do not engage in speculative transactions or hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. In instances when we use fixed pricing agreements with our suppliers, these agreements cover our physical commodity needs, are not net-settled and are accounted for as normal purchases.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We have exposure to various foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations for revenues generated by our operations outside the U.S. which can adversely impact our net income and cash flows. Approximately 7.0% of our total revenues in the first quarter of 2026 and approximately 6.8% of our total revenues in the first quarter of 2025 were derived from our international franchise segment, a majority of which were denominated in foreign currencies. We also operate dough production and distribution facilities in Canada, which generate revenues denominated in Canadian dollars. We do not enter into financial instruments to manage this foreign currency exchange risk. We estimate that a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the foreign currency rates for our international markets would have resulted in a negative impact on royalty revenues of approximately $7.2 million in the first quarter of 2026.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Russell J. Weiner, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Sandeep Reddy, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Weiner and Mr. Reddy concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

During the quarterly period ended March 22, 2026, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are a party to lawsuits, revenue agent reviews by taxing authorities and administrative proceedings in the ordinary course of business which include, without limitation, workers’ compensation, general liability, automobile and franchisee claims. We are also subject to suits related to employment practices. In addition, we may occasionally be party to large claims, including class action suits.

Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and the outcome of individual litigated matters is unpredictable. These matters referenced above could be decided unfavorably to us and could require us to pay damages or make other expenditures in amounts or a range of amounts that cannot be estimated with accuracy. However, we do not believe these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the business or financial condition of the Company, and we expect that the established accruals adequately provide for the estimated resolution of such claims.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes with respect to those risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A “Risk Factors” in Part I of our 2025 Form 10-K.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

c. Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers.
