Management Comments
Lori Flees
“We delivered a strong second quarter with results that reflect our focus on driving the full potential of the core business. Top-line sales grew 25% underpinned by system-wide same-store sales growth of 8.2% and the contribution from new stores, including Breeze, which is performing well as we continue to execute against our integration plans. We also delivered strong profit growth and margin expansion this quarter by maintaining high productivity in our stores and improving SG&A leverage.” “Our proven business model and resilient customer demand, combined with our team’s strong execution, reinforces our confidence in the growth algorithm. We are pleased with the momentum in the business and are updating our full-year guidance to reflect that.”
