Thank you Rebecca and good afternoon everyone. Sweetgreen is redefining fast food, proving possible to operate with financial discipline without compromising on the quality of our menu or the seamless experience that defines our brand. As we scale, weโ€™re building a more resilient business and leaning into whatโ€™s working.

Our real estate playbook reflected by the strength of new markets and recent restaurant openings, our Infinite Kitchens and sweetlane formats are unlocking operational efficiencies while enhancing the guest experience. Weโ€™re also advancing menu innovation while refining our core ensuring every ingredient is prepared, sauced and seasoned to create meals that keep guests returning again and again. Our first quarter results reflect the progress weโ€™ve made despite the quarter being significantly impacted by several external headwinds. These include the holiday timing shift, the LA wildfires and their lingering impacts, as well as adverse weather impacts across several regions.์‹ ๊ทœ ์‹œ์žฅ์˜ ๊ฐ•์„ธ์™€ ์ตœ๊ทผ ๋ ˆ์Šคํ† ๋ž‘ ์˜คํ”ˆ ์‹ค์ ์—์„œ ๋ณผ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋“ฏ์ด, ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ๋ถ€๋™์‚ฐ ์ „๋žต์€ ์„ฑ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ธํ”ผ๋‹ˆํŠธ ํ‚ค์นœ(Infinite Kitchens)๊ณผ ์Šค์œ„ํŠธ๋ ˆ์ธ(Sweetlane) ํฌ๋งท์„ ํ†ตํ•ด ์šด์˜ ํšจ์œจ์„ฑ์„ ๋†’์ด๋Š” ๋™์‹œ์— ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๊ฒฝํ—˜์„ ํ–ฅ์ƒ์‹œํ‚ค๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด ํ˜์‹ ์„ ์ถ”์ง„ํ•˜๋ฉด์„œ๋„ ํ•ต์‹ฌ ์š”์†Œ๋ฅผ ๊ฐœ์„ ํ•˜์—ฌ, ๋ชจ๋“  ์‹์žฌ๋ฃŒ๊ฐ€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ์ฐพ์•„์˜ค๊ฒŒ ๋งŒ๋“œ๋Š” ์Œ์‹์„ ๋งŒ๋“ค๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ์ค€๋น„๋˜๊ณ , ์†Œ์Šค๊ฐ€ ์ฒจ๊ฐ€๋˜๋ฉฐ, ์กฐ๋ฏธ๋˜๋„๋ก ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์‹ค์ ์€ ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์™ธ๋ถ€ ์•…์žฌ์˜ ํฐ ์˜ํ–ฅ์—๋„ ๋ถˆ๊ตฌํ•˜๊ณ  ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์ด๋ฃฌ ์ง„์ „์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ค๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์•…์žฌ๋“ค์—๋Š” ๊ณตํœด์ผ ์‹œ๊ธฐ ๋ณ€๋™, LA ์‚ฐ๋ถˆ๊ณผ ๊ทธ๋กœ ์ธํ•œ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ์˜ํ–ฅ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ง€์—ญ์— ๊ฑธ์นœ ์•…์ฒœํ›„์˜ ์˜ํ–ฅ์ด ํฌํ•จ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
For the first quarter, we reported sales of $166.3 million and a same store sales decline of 3.1%. These results are toward the higher end of our guidance range. By staying focused on what we can control, we delivered a restaurant level profit margin of 17.9% and achieved slight adjusted EBITDA profitability, both above our provided outlook. Looking ahead, the macro environment remains uncertain and volatile. April sales trends were soft, which we believe is reflective of a broader consumer slowdown. This has been particularly true in our largest markets such as New York, Boston and Los Angeles.1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์‹ค์ ๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จํ•˜์—ฌ ๋งค์ถœ์•ก 1์–ต 6,630๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ๊ธฐ์กด์  ๋งค์ถœ์€ 3.1% ๊ฐ์†Œํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ๋‹น์‚ฌ๊ฐ€ ์ œ์‹œํ•œ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ๋ฒ”์œ„์˜ ์ƒ๋‹จ์— ๊ทผ์ ‘ํ•œ ์ˆ˜์ค€์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ๊ฐ€ ํ†ต์ œ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•œ ๋ถ€๋ถ„์— ์ง‘์ค‘ํ•œ ๊ฒฐ๊ณผ, ๋ ˆ์Šคํ† ๋ž‘ ๋ ˆ๋ฒจ ์ˆ˜์ต๋ฅ ์€ 17.9%๋ฅผ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์กฐ์ • EBITDA๋„ ์†Œํญ์˜ ํ‘์ž๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ•˜์—ฌ ๊ธฐ์กด์— ์ œ์‹œํ•œ ์ „๋ง์น˜๋ฅผ ์ƒํšŒํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ–ฅํ›„ ์ „๋ง๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จํ•˜์—ฌ ๊ฑฐ์‹œ๊ฒฝ์ œ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์€ ์—ฌ์ „ํžˆ ๋ถˆํ™•์‹คํ•˜๊ณ  ๋ณ€๋™์„ฑ์ด ํฐ ์ƒํ™ฉ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 4์›” ๋งค์ถœ ์ถ”์„ธ๋Š” ์•ฝ์„ธ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์˜€๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์ „๋ฐ˜์ ์ธ ์†Œ๋น„ ๋‘”ํ™”๋ฅผ ๋ฐ˜์˜ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ํŒ๋‹จ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ํ˜„์ƒ์€ ํŠนํžˆ ๋‰ด์š•, ๋ณด์Šคํ„ด, ๋กœ์Šค์•ค์ ค๋ ˆ์Šค์™€ ๊ฐ™์€ ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ์ฃผ์š” ์‹œ์žฅ์—์„œ ๋‘๋“œ๋Ÿฌ์ง€๊ฒŒ ๋‚˜ํƒ€๋‚˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
However, weโ€™re confident in our ability to deliver long-term value for our guests, our team members and our shareholders. Iโ€™m proud of the strides weโ€™ve made, but no true operational excellence requires relentless attention to detail, especially now. Thatโ€™s why our team is committed to optimizing every process, no matter how small, to drive continuous improvement. We continue to see significant opportunities to optimize operations, broaden our customer base, grow guest frequency and expand our footprint.ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๊ณ ๊ฐ, ์ง์›, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ฃผ์ฃผ๋“ค์„ ์œ„ํ•œ ์žฅ๊ธฐ์  ๊ฐ€์น˜ ์ฐฝ์ถœ ๋Šฅ๋ ฅ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์ž์‹ ๊ฐ์„ ๊ฐ€์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ง€๊ธˆ๊นŒ์ง€ ์ด๋ฃฌ ์ง„์ „์„ ์ž๋ž‘์Šค๋Ÿฝ๊ฒŒ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ, ์ง„์ •ํ•œ ์šด์˜ ์šฐ์ˆ˜์„ฑ์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ํŠนํžˆ ํ˜„ ์‹œ์ ์—์„œ ์„ธ์„ธํ•œ ๋ถ€๋ถ„๊นŒ์ง€ ๋Š์ž„์—†๋Š” ๊ด€์‹ฌ์„ ๊ธฐ์šธ์—ฌ์•ผ ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ด์œ ๋กœ ์ €ํฌ ํŒ€์€ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ๊ฐœ์„ ์„ ์ด๋ฃจ๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ์•„๋ฌด๋ฆฌ ์ž‘์€ ๊ฒƒ์ด๋ผ๋„ ๋ชจ๋“  ํ”„๋กœ์„ธ์Šค๋ฅผ ์ตœ์ ํ™”ํ•˜๋Š” ๋ฐ ์ „๋…ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ์šด์˜ ์ตœ์ ํ™”, ๊ณ ๊ฐ์ธต ํ™•๋Œ€, ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ ๋นˆ๋„ ์ฆ๊ฐ€, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์‚ฌ์—… ์˜์—ญ ํ™•์žฅ์— ์žˆ์–ด ์ƒ๋‹นํ•œ ๊ธฐํšŒ๋ฅผ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
With these focused areas in mind, our three strategic pillars for 2025 are: one, revolutionizing fast food through menu and technology innovation; two, strengthening guest connection and operational excellence; and lastly, number three, strategically expanding and evolving our footprint. These pillars are designed to increase traffic and expand restaurant level margin. Let me share what we delivered in the first quarter. We opened five new restaurants, Fishtown in Philadelphia, Westfield and Canton in the New York metro area, Carytown in Richmond, and Hilldale in Milwaukee.์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ค‘์  ์˜์—ญ์„ ์—ผ๋‘์— ๋‘๊ณ , 2025๋…„์„ ์œ„ํ•œ ์ €ํฌ์˜ ์„ธ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ์ „๋žต์  ํ•ต์‹ฌ ์ถ•์€ ๋‹ค์Œ๊ณผ ๊ฐ™์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค: ์ฒซ์งธ, ๋ฉ”๋‰ด์™€ ๊ธฐ์ˆ  ํ˜์‹ ์„ ํ†ตํ•œ ํŒจ์ŠคํŠธํ‘ธ๋“œ์˜ ํ˜์‹ ; ๋‘˜์งธ, ๊ณ ๊ฐ๊ณผ์˜ ์—ฐ๊ฒฐ์„ฑ ๊ฐ•ํ™” ๋ฐ ์šด์˜ ํšจ์œจ์„ฑ ์ œ๊ณ ; ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๋งˆ์ง€๋ง‰์œผ๋กœ ์…‹์งธ, ์ „๋žต์ ์ธ ๋งค์žฅ ํ™•์žฅ ๋ฐ ๋ฐœ์ „์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ํ•ต์‹ฌ ์ถ•๋“ค์€ ๋งค์žฅ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ์ฆ๊ฐ€์™€ ๋ ˆ์Šคํ† ๋ž‘ ์ˆ˜์ค€์˜ ๋งˆ์ง„ ํ™•๋Œ€๋ฅผ ๋ชฉํ‘œ๋กœ ์„ค๊ณ„๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ•œ ์„ฑ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” 5๊ฐœ์˜ ์‹ ๊ทœ ๋งค์žฅ์„ ์˜คํ”ˆํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•„๋ผ๋ธํ”ผ์•„์˜ ํ”ผ์‹œํƒ€์šด, ๋‰ด์š• ๋ฉ”ํŠธ๋กœ ์ง€์—ญ์˜ ์›จ์ŠคํŠธํ•„๋“œ์™€ ์บ”ํ†ค, ๋ฆฌ์น˜๋จผ๋“œ์˜ ์บ๋ฆฌํƒ€์šด, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๋ฐ€์›Œํ‚ค์˜ ํž๋ฐ์ผ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
As I shared on our last call, our 2024 class of new restaurants is tracking towards two year metrics in year one and delivered a Q1 margin of 18.3%. Notably, 40% of this class is located in legacy markets and 60% in new markets, underscoring the broad based strength of our performance. This reaffirms our confidence in the effectiveness of our real estate strategy and the significant long-term growth opportunity that lies ahead. We continue to be pleased with the financial and operational performance of our Infinite Kitchen format, which is delivering strong results across key metrics.์ง€๋‚œ ์‹ค์ ๋ฐœํ‘œ์—์„œ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฐ ๋ฐ”์™€ ๊ฐ™์ด, 2024๋…„์— ์˜คํ”ˆํ•œ ์‹ ๊ทœ ๋งค์žฅ๋“ค์€ ์ฒซํ•ด์— 2๋…„์ฐจ ์ˆ˜์ค€์˜ ์‹ค์ ์„ ๋ณด์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ์—๋Š” 18.3%์˜ ๋งˆ์ง„์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฃผ๋ชฉํ•  ๋งŒํ•œ ์ ์€ ์ด ์‹ ๊ทœ ๋งค์žฅ๋“ค ์ค‘ 40%๋Š” ๊ธฐ์กด ์‹œ์žฅ์—, 60%๋Š” ์‹ ๊ทœ ์‹œ์žฅ์— ์œ„์น˜ํ•ด ์žˆ์–ด, ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ์ „๋ฐ˜์ ์ธ ์‹ค์  ๊ฐ•์„ธ๋ฅผ ์ž˜ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ๋ถ€๋™์‚ฐ ์ „๋žต์ด ํšจ๊ณผ์ ์ด๋ฉฐ, ์žฅ๊ธฐ์ ์œผ๋กœ ์ƒ๋‹นํ•œ ์„ฑ์žฅ ๊ธฐํšŒ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ํ™•์‹ ์„ ๋‹ค์‹œ ํ•œ ๋ฒˆ ์ž…์ฆํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ ์ธํ”ผ๋‹ˆํŠธ ํ‚ค์นœ(Infinite Kitchen) ํฌ๋งท์€ ์ฃผ์š” ์ง€ํ‘œ๋“ค์—์„œ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์„ฑ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ์–ด, ๊ทธ ์žฌ๋ฌด์ , ์šด์˜์  ์„ฑ๊ณผ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ๋งŒ์กฑ์Šค๋Ÿฝ๊ฒŒ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
These locations are showing meaningful margin leverage compared to restaurants of similar age and volume driven by improved efficiency and operational consistency. Additionally, our class of Infinite Kitchens continues to drive higher native digital sales due to their high throughput and consistency, which leads to a better guest experience. We believe the Infinite Kitchen together with our revamped loyalty program can accelerate our industry leading digital presence. Not only do we see strong performance in our Infinite Kitchens, we are also seeing strong performance of our sweetlane in Schaumburg, Illinois.

Schaumburgโ€™s AUV and restaurant level margin is above the fleet average and with minimal incremental costs. Schaumburg is a clear proof point of the strong cash on cash return potential of the sweetlane format. This yearโ€™s pipeline includes two new sweetlane locations, one classic and our first with an Infinite Kitchen with more planned for 2026. We are reiterating our 2025 new unit guidance and continue to have high conviction in our long-term development roadmap of 15% to 20% annual unit growth. In 2025, we plan to enter three new markets, Sacramento, Phoenix and Cincinnati, and open at least 40 new restaurants including 20 with the Infinite Kitchen.์ƒค์›€๋ฒ„๊ทธ ์ง€์ ์˜ ์ ํฌ๋‹น ํ‰๊ท  ๋งค์ถœ(AUV)๊ณผ ๋ ˆ์Šคํ† ๋ž‘ ์ˆ˜์ค€ ๋งˆ์ง„์€ ์ „์ฒด ํ‰๊ท ์„ ์ƒํšŒํ•˜๋ฉฐ, ์ถ”๊ฐ€ ๋น„์šฉ๋„ ๋ฏธ๋ฏธํ•œ ์ˆ˜์ค€์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ƒค์›€๋ฒ„๊ทธ ์ง€์ ์€ ์Šค์œ„ํŠธ๋ ˆ์ธ ํฌ๋งท์ด ๊ฐ€์ง„ ํˆฌ์ž์ž๋ณธ์ˆ˜์ต๋ฅ (cash on cash return)์˜ ์ž ์žฌ๋ ฅ์„ ๋ช…ํ™•ํžˆ ์ž…์ฆํ•˜๋Š” ์‚ฌ๋ก€์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ฌํ•ด ํŒŒ์ดํ”„๋ผ์ธ์—๋Š” ๋‘ ๊ฐœ์˜ ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ์Šค์œ„ํŠธ๋ ˆ์ธ ๋งค์žฅ, ํ•œ ๊ฐœ์˜ ํด๋ž˜์‹ ๋งค์žฅ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ฒซ ์ธํ”ผ๋‹ˆํŠธ ํ‚ค์นœ ๋งค์žฅ์ด ํฌํ•จ๋˜์–ด ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, 2026๋…„์—๋Š” ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ๋งค์žฅ์ด ๊ณ„ํš๋˜์–ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ๋Š” 2025๋…„ ์‹ ๊ทœ ์ถœ์  ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ ์žฌํ™•์ธํ•˜๋ฉฐ, ์—ฐ๊ฐ„ 15%์—์„œ 20%์˜ ์ ํฌ ์„ฑ์žฅ์ด๋ผ๋Š” ์žฅ๊ธฐ ๊ฐœ๋ฐœ ๋กœ๋“œ๋งต์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋†’์€ ํ™•์‹ ์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2025๋…„์—๋Š” ์ƒˆํฌ๋ผ๋ฉ˜ํ† , ํ”ผ๋‹‰์Šค, ์‹ ์‹œ๋‚ดํ‹ฐ ๋“ฑ 3๊ฐœ์˜ ์‹ ๊ทœ ์‹œ์žฅ์— ์ง„์ถœํ•  ์˜ˆ์ •์ด๋ฉฐ, ์ธํ”ผ๋‹ˆํŠธ ํ‚ค์นœ์ด ์„ค์น˜๋œ 20๊ฐœ ๋งค์žฅ์„ ํฌํ•จํ•˜์—ฌ ์ตœ์†Œ 40๊ฐœ์˜ ์‹ ๊ทœ ๋ ˆ์Šคํ† ๋ž‘์„ ์˜คํ”ˆํ•  ๊ณ„ํš์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Additionally, weโ€™re planning two relocations that will be upgraded with the Infinite Kitchen and expect to complete one to three Infinite Kitchen retrofits of existing restaurants. As we scale innovation across every touch point, physical and digital becomes even more critical. In todayโ€™s environment, staying top of mind requires a steady cadence of newness. Our 2025 calendar is designed to do just that, increase visit frequency, attract new customers and build deeper loyalty among our base. Let me take a moment to share one of the most exciting things weโ€™ve rolled out recently, Ripple Fries. After an initial test in our LA market, we launched Ripple Fries nationwide on March 4th.๋˜ํ•œ ์ธํ”ผ๋‹ˆํŠธ ํ‚ค์นœ(Infinite Kitchen)์œผ๋กœ ์—…๊ทธ๋ ˆ์ด๋“œ๋  ๋‘ ๊ณณ์˜ ์ด์ „ ๊ณ„ํš์„ ์ง„ํ–‰ ์ค‘์ด๋ฉฐ, ๊ธฐ์กด ๋งค์žฅ ์ค‘ 1~3๊ณณ์— ์ธํ”ผ๋‹ˆํŠธ ํ‚ค์นœ ๋ ˆํŠธ๋กœํ•์„ ์™„๋ฃŒํ•  ์˜ˆ์ •์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ๋Š” ๋ชจ๋“  ์ ‘์ ์—์„œ ํ˜์‹ ์„ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ•จ์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ ๋ฌผ๋ฆฌ์ , ๋””์ง€ํ„ธ์  ์š”์†Œ๊ฐ€ ๋”์šฑ ์ค‘์š”ํ•ด์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฌ์˜ ์‹œ์žฅ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์—์„œ๋Š” ๊ณ ๊ฐ์˜ ๊ด€์‹ฌ์„ ์ง€์†์ ์œผ๋กœ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ๊พธ์ค€ํ•œ ์‹ ๊ทœ์„ฑ์ด ์š”๊ตฌ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ 2025๋…„ ๊ณ„ํš์€ ๋ฐ”๋กœ ์ด๋ฅผ ์‹คํ˜„ํ•˜์—ฌ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ ๋นˆ๋„๋ฅผ ๋†’์ด๊ณ , ์‹ ๊ทœ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์„ ์œ ์น˜ํ•˜๋ฉฐ, ๊ธฐ์กด ๊ณ ๊ฐ์ธต๊ณผ์˜ ๋” ๊นŠ์€ ์ถฉ์„ฑ๋„๋ฅผ ๊ตฌ์ถ•ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ตœ๊ทผ ์ถœ์‹œํ•œ ๊ฐ€์žฅ ํฅ๋ฏธ๋กœ์šด ์ œํ’ˆ ์ค‘ ํ•˜๋‚˜์ธ ๋ฆฌํ”Œ ํ”„๋ผ์ด(Ripple Fries)์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์ž ์‹œ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Ripple Fries are Sweetgreenโ€™s take on this classic item. Fresh cut daily in our restaurants, air fried in avocado oil and served with a choice of our house made pickled ketchup or garlic aioli. Made with just five simple ingredients, Ripple Fries are a category defining side thatโ€™s both craveable and aligned with our commitment to clean elevated food. Ripple Fries drove same store sales improvement in March. They have become our most attached side item across channels, helping to lift overall ticket averages and broaden the meal experience. Notably, the strength has been consistent across all markets. Our innovation pipeline continues to be a key driver of traffic.๋ฆฌํ”Œ ํ”„๋ผ์ด๋Š” ์Šค์œ„ํŠธ๊ทธ๋ฆฐ์ด ์„ ๋ณด์ด๋Š” ํด๋ž˜์‹ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด์˜ ์žฌํ•ด์„์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งค์žฅ์—์„œ ๋งค์ผ ์‹ ์„ ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ์ฐ์–ด์„œ, ์•„๋ณด์นด๋„ ์˜ค์ผ๋กœ ์—์–ดํ”„๋ผ์ด ํ•œ ํ›„ ์ž์ฒด ์ œ์กฐํ•œ ํ”ผํด ์ผ€์ฒฉ์ด๋‚˜ ๊ฐˆ๋ฆญ ์•„์ด์˜ฌ๋ฆฌ ์†Œ์Šค์™€ ํ•จ๊ป˜ ์ œ๊ณต๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹จ 5๊ฐ€์ง€ ์›์žฌ๋ฃŒ๋งŒ์œผ๋กœ ๋งŒ๋“  ๋ฆฌํ”Œ ํ”„๋ผ์ด๋Š” ์นดํ…Œ๊ณ ๋ฆฌ๋ฅผ ๋Œ€ํ‘œํ•˜๋Š” ์‚ฌ์ด๋“œ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋กœ, ์ค‘๋…์„ฑ ์žˆ๋Š” ๋ง›๊ณผ ๋™์‹œ์— ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ๊นจ๋—ํ•˜๊ณ  ์ˆ˜์ค€ ๋†’์€ ์‹ํ’ˆ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์•ฝ์†์„ ์ง€์ผœ๋‚ด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ฆฌํ”Œ ํ”„๋ผ์ด๋Š” 3์›” ๋™์ผ ๋งค์žฅ ๋งค์ถœ ๊ฐœ์„ ์„ ์ด๋Œ์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ชจ๋“  ํŒ๋งค ์ฑ„๋„์—์„œ ๊ฐ€์žฅ ๋†’์€ ์ฃผ๋ฌธ ์—ฐ๊ณ„์œจ์„ ๋ณด์ด๋Š” ์‚ฌ์ด๋“œ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๊ฐ€ ๋˜์–ด, ์ „๋ฐ˜์ ์ธ ๊ฐ๋‹จ๊ฐ€ ์ƒ์Šน๊ณผ ์‹์‚ฌ ๊ฒฝํ—˜์˜ ๋‹ค์–‘ํ™”์— ๊ธฐ์—ฌํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํŠนํžˆ ์ฃผ๋ชฉํ•  ๋งŒํ•œ ์ ์€ ๋ชจ๋“  ์‹œ์žฅ์—์„œ ์ผ๊ด€๋œ ๊ฐ•์„ธ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ํ˜์‹  ํŒŒ์ดํ”„๋ผ์ธ์€ ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ํŠธ๋ž˜ํ”ฝ ์ฆ๊ฐ€์˜ ํ•ต์‹ฌ ๋™๋ ฅ์ด ๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
For us menu innovation goes beyond the food. Itโ€™s about keeping the brand dynamic and culturally relevant. One of our most mouthwatering culinary launches planned for this year is our collaboration with COTE Korean Steakhouse. They are the first and only Michelin-starred Korean steakhouse in the U.S. Together we are introducing Sweetgreenโ€™s first ever Korean barbecue inspired menu featuring our new KBBQ glazed steak, cucumber kimchi and an apple kimchi sauce, bringing an entirely new flavor profile to our guests. This limited time menu launches nationwide next Tuesday on May 13th.์šฐ๋ฆฌ์—๊ฒŒ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด ํ˜์‹ ์€ ๋‹จ์ˆœํžˆ ์Œ์‹์„ ๋„˜์–ด์„  ์˜๋ฏธ๋ฅผ ๊ฐ€์ง‘๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ๋ธŒ๋žœ๋“œ๋ฅผ ์—ญ๋™์ ์œผ๋กœ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๊ณ  ๋ฌธํ™”์  ํŠธ๋ Œ๋“œ์— ๋ถ€ํ•ฉํ•˜๋„๋ก ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ฌํ•ด ๊ณ„ํš๋œ ๊ฐ€์žฅ ๋งค๋ ฅ์ ์ธ ์š”๋ฆฌ ์ถœ์‹œ ์ค‘ ํ•˜๋‚˜๋Š” COTE ์ฝ”๋ฆฌ์•ˆ ์Šคํ…Œ์ดํฌํ•˜์šฐ์Šค์™€์˜ ํ˜‘์—…์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Collaborations like this is one way Sweetgreen is redefining fast food, showcasing our culinary creativity, high quality ingredients and cultural relevance. When we deliver bold culinary-led menu moments, we see clear signals. New customers show up, lapsed customers return, and existing guests engage more deeply. Thatโ€™s why the work weโ€™re doing now across both limited time offers and strategic brand collaborations is so important. And thereโ€™s more menu innovation to come. With seasonal menus planned for the summer and fall, we are poised to sustain momentum through high traffic periods.์ด์™€ ๊ฐ™์€ ํ˜‘์—…์€ Sweetgreen์ด ํŒจ์ŠคํŠธํ‘ธ๋“œ๋ฅผ ์žฌ์ •์˜ํ•˜๋Š” ๋ฐฉ์‹ ์ค‘ ํ•˜๋‚˜๋กœ, ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์š”๋ฆฌ ์ฐฝ์˜์„ฑ๊ณผ ๊ณ ํ’ˆ์งˆ ์‹์žฌ๋ฃŒ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๋ฌธํ™”์  ์ ์ ˆ์„ฑ์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ค๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๋Œ€๋‹ดํ•œ ์š”๋ฆฌ ์ค‘์‹ฌ์˜ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋ฅผ ์„ ๋ณด์ผ ๋•Œ๋งˆ๋‹ค, ๋ถ„๋ช…ํ•œ ์‹ ํ˜ธ๊ฐ€ ๋‚˜ํƒ€๋‚ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์‹ ๊ทœ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์ด ์œ ์ž…๋˜๊ณ , ์ดํƒˆํ–ˆ๋˜ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด ๋Œ์•„์˜ค๋ฉฐ, ๊ธฐ์กด ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์˜ ์ฐธ์—ฌ๋„๊ฐ€ ๋”์šฑ ๊นŠ์–ด์ง‘๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด ๋ฐ”๋กœ ํ•œ์ •ํŒ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด์™€ ์ „๋žต์  ๋ธŒ๋žœ๋“œ ํ˜‘์—… ์–‘์ธก์—์„œ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ํ˜„์žฌ ์ง„ํ–‰ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ์ž‘์—…์ด ๋งค์šฐ ์ค‘์š”ํ•œ ์ด์œ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์•ž์œผ๋กœ๋„ ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด ํ˜์‹ ์ด ์žˆ์„ ์˜ˆ์ •์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—ฌ๋ฆ„๊ณผ ๊ฐ€์„์„ ์œ„ํ•œ ์‹œ์ฆŒ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋ฅผ ๊ณ„ํšํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์–ด, ๊ณ ๊ฐ ํŠธ๋ž˜ํ”ฝ์ด ๋†’์€ ์‹œ๊ธฐ์—๋„ ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์„ฑ์žฅ ๋ชจ๋ฉ˜ํ…€์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์ „๋ง๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Weโ€™re also focused on elevating our core menu by perfecting how each ingredient is prepared, sauced and seasoned, ensuring every ingredient in bowl is a craveable, repeatable winner. A lot of this starts is our proteins, how they are marinated, cooked, held and portioned. Our job now is to keep delivering on that promise, staying nimble, listening closely to our guests and executing with the kind of discipline that builds lasting brand love. Another important milestone for us has been the nationwide launch of our reimagined loyalty program, SG Rewards, at the beginning of April.๋˜ํ•œ ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๊ฐ ์žฌ๋ฃŒ์˜ ์ค€๋น„, ์†Œ์Šค ์ฒจ๊ฐ€, ์–‘๋… ๋ฐฉ๋ฒ•์„ ์™„๋ฒฝํ•˜๊ฒŒ ๋‹ค๋“ฌ์–ด ๋ฉ”์ธ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋ฅผ ํ•œ์ธต ๋” ๋ฐœ์ „์‹œํ‚ค๋Š” ๋ฐ ์ฃผ๋ ฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋ฅผ ํ†ตํ•ด ๋ณผ ์•ˆ์˜ ๋ชจ๋“  ์žฌ๋ฃŒ๊ฐ€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์ด ๊ณ„์† ์ฐพ๊ฒŒ ๋˜๋Š” ๋งค๋ ฅ์ ์ธ ๋ง›์„ ์ œ๊ณตํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋„๋ก ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๋…ธ๋ ฅ์˜ ์ƒ๋‹น ๋ถ€๋ถ„์€ ๋‹จ๋ฐฑ์งˆ ์žฌ๋ฃŒ์—์„œ ์‹œ์ž‘๋˜๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์–‘๋… ๊ณผ์ •, ์กฐ๋ฆฌ ๋ฐฉ๋ฒ•, ๋ณด๊ด€ ๋ฐฉ์‹, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  portion ํฌ๊ธฐ ๊ด€๋ฆฌ๋ฅผ ํฌํ•จํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ์˜ ์ž„๋ฌด๋Š” ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์•ฝ์†์„ ์ง€์†์ ์œผ๋กœ ์ดํ–‰ํ•˜๊ณ , ์œ ์—ฐ์„ฑ์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๋ฉฐ, ๊ณ ๊ฐ์˜ ๋ชฉ์†Œ๋ฆฌ์— ๊ท€ ๊ธฐ์šธ์ด๊ณ , ๋ธŒ๋žœ๋“œ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ์• ์ •์„ ๊ตฌ์ถ•ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ทœ์œจ์„ ๊ฐ€์ง€๊ณ  ์‹คํ–‰ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ์ฃผ์š” ์ด์ •ํ‘œ๋Š” 4์›” ์ดˆ์— ์ „๊ตญ์ ์œผ๋กœ ์ถœ์‹œํ•œ ์ƒˆ๋กญ๊ฒŒ ์žฌ๊ตฌ์„ฑ๋œ ๋กœ์—ดํ‹ฐ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ์ธ 'SG Rewards'์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
SG Rewards is a points based program where customers earn 10 points for every eligible dollar spent with the ability to redeem points for free menu items, unlock surprise offers and gain access to member exclusive experiences. This updated program is designed to be more engaging and rewarding for a broader range of customers based directly on their feedback. In just the first few weeks of the launch of SG Rewards, weโ€™ve already seen strong adoption and excitement from our community. Since launch, weโ€™ve added 20,000 new digital customers a week.SG Rewards๋Š” ํฌ์ธํŠธ ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ์œผ๋กœ, ๊ณ ๊ฐ์ด ์ ๊ฒฉ ๊ตฌ๋งค ๊ธˆ์•ก 1๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋‹น 10ํฌ์ธํŠธ๋ฅผ ์ ๋ฆฝํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด ํฌ์ธํŠธ๋กœ ๋ฌด๋ฃŒ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด ์•„์ดํ…œ์„ ๊ตํ™˜ํ•˜๊ณ , ๊นœ์ง ํ• ์ธ ํ˜œํƒ์„ ๋ฐ›์œผ๋ฉฐ, ํšŒ์› ์ „์šฉ ๊ฒฝํ—˜์„ ์ด์šฉํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด ๊ฐœ์„ ๋œ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ์€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์˜ ์ง์ ‘์ ์ธ ํ”ผ๋“œ๋ฐฑ์„ ๋ฐ”ํƒ•์œผ๋กœ ๋” ๋„“์€ ๋ฒ”์œ„์˜ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์ธต์—๊ฒŒ ๋”์šฑ ๋งค๋ ฅ์ ์ด๊ณ  ๋ณด์ƒ์ด ํ’๋ถ€ํ•œ ๊ฒฝํ—˜์„ ์ œ๊ณตํ•˜๋„๋ก ์„ค๊ณ„๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

As part of the perks SG Rewards members can expect they will get an early first taste of our new KBBQ menu on May 12, when ordering through the Sweetgreen app or website. I want to thank our team members who are doing an incredible job engaging with guests and helping them discover the benefit of our reimagined loyalty program. In a challenging industry environment where consumers are making more intentional choices with every dollar, SG Rewards is designed to meet the moment by delivering meaningful value.

Coupled with enhanced personalized CRM and our reimagined loyalty program, we believe these efforts will work together to accelerate transaction growth and strengthen guest loyalty. Turning to our team and operations, our AI powered workforce management system is now live in the majority of our restaurants. With just two markets remaining, we are on track for full implementation by the end of the second quarter. This system gives team members an optional, user-friendly mobile platform to manage their schedules, aligning their availability with restaurant needs. Average weekly hours are up nearly 10% and absentee rates have declined by nearly 50%.๊ฐœ์„ ๋œ ๋งž์ถคํ˜• CRM๊ณผ ์ƒˆ๋กญ๊ฒŒ ์žฌ๊ตฌ์„ฑ๋œ ๋กœ์—ดํ‹ฐ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ๊ณผ ๋”๋ถˆ์–ด, ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๋…ธ๋ ฅ๋“ค์ด ์‹œ๋„ˆ์ง€ ํšจ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ฐœํœ˜ํ•˜์—ฌ ๊ฑฐ๋ž˜๋Ÿ‰ ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋ฅผ ๊ฐ€์†ํ™”ํ•˜๊ณ  ๊ณ ๊ฐ ์ถฉ์„ฑ๋„๋ฅผ ๊ฐ•ํ™”ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๊ธฐ๋Œ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

For our head coaches, the platform enables smarter, more proactive workforce planning and frees up valuable time to focus on team development, the guest experience and restaurant performance. Weโ€™ve continued to see progress on the turnover front for both coaches and the broader team with turnover nearing 90%, more than half of our first quarter leadership roles were filled from within, a clear testament to our growing bench strength and sustained investment in our people. While weโ€™ve made meaningful strides, we still have opportunities to raise the bar on operational execution across many of our locations.๋งค์žฅ ์ฑ…์ž„์ž๋“ค์—๊ฒŒ ์žˆ์–ด ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ํ”Œ๋žซํผ์€ ๋ณด๋‹ค ์Šค๋งˆํŠธํ•˜๊ณ  ์„ ์ œ์ ์ธ ์ธ๋ ฅ ๊ณ„ํš์„ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•˜๊ฒŒ ํ•˜๋ฉฐ, ํŒ€ ์œก์„ฑ๊ณผ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๊ฒฝํ—˜, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๋งค์žฅ ์‹ค์  ํ–ฅ์ƒ์— ์ง‘์ค‘ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ท€์ค‘ํ•œ ์‹œ๊ฐ„์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ•ด์ค๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฑ…์ž„์ž์™€ ์ „์ฒด ํŒ€์›์˜ ์ด์ง๋ฅ  ์ธก๋ฉด์—์„œ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ๊ฐœ์„ ์„ ๋ณด์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ํ˜„์žฌ ์ด์ง๋ฅ ์€ 90% ์ˆ˜์ค€์— ๊ทผ์ ‘ํ•ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋ฆฌ๋”์‹ญ ์ง์ฑ…์˜ ์ ˆ๋ฐ˜ ์ด์ƒ์„ ๋‚ด๋ถ€ ์Šน์ง„์œผ๋กœ ์ฑ„์› ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์„ฑ์žฅํ•˜๋Š” ์ธ์žฌํ’€๊ณผ ์ง์› ์œก์„ฑ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ํˆฌ์ž๋ฅผ ๋ช…ํ™•ํžˆ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ๋Š” ์ฆ๊ฑฐ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜๋ฏธ ์žˆ๋Š” ์ง„์ „์„ ์ด๋ฃจ์—ˆ์Œ์—๋„ ๋ถˆ๊ตฌํ•˜๊ณ , ์—ฌ์ „ํžˆ ๋งŽ์€ ๋งค์žฅ์—์„œ ์šด์˜ ์‹คํ–‰๋ ฅ์„ ๋†’์ผ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ธฐํšŒ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Inconsistencies in service, speed and portioning highlight the need for sharper discipline, tighter systems integration and a greater focus on the details that drive day-to-day excellence. Thatโ€™s why Iโ€™m excited to welcome Jason Cochran as our new Chief Operating Officer. Jason is a seasoned operations leader with more than two decades of experience at some of the most iconic brands in our industry, including Pizza Hut and Chipotle.

where he led transformational improvements in performance, instilling operational discipline and elevating execution across hundreds of locations. At Chipotle, he played a key role in scaling operations during a period of rapid growth with a focus on driving consistency, improving throughput and enhancing the guest experience. Jason is a highly methodical, hands-on leader, who brings a sharp eye for detail, a deep commitment to standards and a passion for unlocking operational excellence at scale. Iโ€™m confident heโ€™ll help us drive greater consistency and accountability across the fleet.๊ทธ๋Š” ์ˆ˜๋ฐฑ ๊ฐœ์˜ ์ง€์ ์—์„œ ์šด์˜ ๊ทœ์œจ์„ ํ™•๋ฆฝํ•˜๊ณ  ์‹คํ–‰๋ ฅ์„ ํ–ฅ์ƒ์‹œํ‚ค๋ฉฐ ์„ฑ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ํš๊ธฐ์ ์œผ๋กœ ๊ฐœ์„ ํ•˜๋Š”๋ฐ ์ฃผ๋„์ ์ธ ์—ญํ• ์„ ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Iโ€™m thrilled to welcome Jason to our leadership team and to partner with him closely on this next chapter. Before I turn the call over to Mitch, I want to take a moment to acknowledge the industry dynamic weโ€™re operating in and the decline in consumer sentiment.

As our menu has evolved to include more warming, heartier offerings such as our protein plates and premium additions like steak, weโ€™ve seen a positive shift in the brandโ€™s value perception at dinner. However, we also recognize the opportunity to introduce compelling mid and lower priced items that increase guest frequency, particularly in the current environment. Given our customization model, weโ€™re well positioned to act quickly through limited time and evergreen menu items. Weโ€™re excited about whatโ€™s ahead and confident in our ability to deliver value in a way that deepens connection with our guests, without compromising on the quality or integrity theyโ€™ve come to expect from Sweetgreen.๋‹จ๋ฐฑ์งˆ ํ”Œ๋ ˆ์ดํŠธ์™€ ์Šคํ…Œ์ดํฌ์™€ ๊ฐ™์€ ํ”„๋ฆฌ๋ฏธ์—„ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋ฅผ ํฌํ•จํ•˜์—ฌ ๋”์šฑ ๋”ฐ๋œปํ•˜๊ณ  ๋“ ๋“ ํ•œ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋“ค๋กœ ์ง„ํ™”ํ•˜๋ฉด์„œ, ์ €๋… ์‹์‚ฌ ์‹œ๊ฐ„๋Œ€์— ๋ธŒ๋žœ๋“œ ๊ฐ€์น˜ ์ธ์‹์ด ๊ธ์ •์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณ€ํ™”ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ํ˜„์žฌ ์‹œ์žฅ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์—์„œ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ ๋นˆ๋„๋ฅผ ๋†’์ผ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๋งค๋ ฅ์ ์ธ ์ค‘์ €๊ฐ€ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋ฅผ ๋„์ž…ํ•  ๊ธฐํšŒ๋„ ์ธ์‹ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ์ปค์Šคํ„ฐ๋งˆ์ด์ง• ๋ชจ๋ธ์„ ํ†ตํ•ด ํ•œ์ • ๊ธฐ๊ฐ„ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด์™€ ์ƒ์‹œ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด ๋ชจ๋‘์—์„œ ์‹ ์†ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ๋Œ€์‘ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์ข‹์€ ์œ„์น˜์— ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์•ž์œผ๋กœ์˜ ์ „๋ง์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋งค์šฐ ๊ธฐ๋Œ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, Sweetgreen์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด ๊ธฐ๋Œ€ํ•˜๋Š” ํ’ˆ์งˆ๊ณผ ์ง„์ •์„ฑ์„ ํ›ผ์†ํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š์œผ๋ฉด์„œ๋„ ๊ณ ๊ฐ๊ณผ์˜ ๊ด€๊ณ„๋ฅผ ๋”์šฑ ๊นŠ๊ฒŒ ๋งŒ๋“ค ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๋ฐฉ์‹์œผ๋กœ ๊ฐ€์น˜๋ฅผ ์ œ๊ณตํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ํ™•์‹ ์ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Sweetgreen has always been more than just a place to eat. Weโ€™re a community, a movement and a brand built on purpose, with farm-to-flavor at the heart of how we connect people to real food.

Thank you, Jonathan. And good afternoon everyone. Total revenue for the quarter was $166.3 million, up from $157.9 million in the first quarter of 2024. Same-store sales for the first quarter declined 3.1% compared to the prior year period. This reflects a 3.4% benefit from menu price increases and a negative 6.5% from traffic and mix. Same-store sales grew in more than half of our markets, led by the Upper Midwest, Texas and Colorado, all of which comped double digits. Our average unit volume in the first quarter was 2.9 million. We opened five restaurants, ending the first quarter with 251 restaurants.

Food, beverage and packaging costs were 26.5% of revenue for the quarter and more than 100 basis point improvement from the prior year period, primarily due to distribution savings from continued market densification and ingredient consolidation as well as favorable contract pricing on key ingredients.๋‹น๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋งค์žฅ ์ˆ˜์ค€ ์ด์ต๋ฅ ์€ ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ 18.1% ๋Œ€๋น„ 17.9%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋งค์žฅ ์ˆ˜์ค€ ์ด์ต์€ ์ „๋…„ ๋Œ€๋น„ 4% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•œ 2,970๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งค์žฅ ์ˆ˜์ค€ ์ด์ต๊ณผ ๋งค์žฅ ์ˆ˜์ค€ ์ด์ต๋ฅ ์˜ GAAP ๊ธฐ์ค€ ์ˆ˜์น˜์™€์˜ ๋Œ€์กฐ๋Š” ์‹ค์  ๋ฐœํ‘œ ์ž๋ฃŒ๋ฅผ ์ฐธ๊ณ ํ•ด ์ฃผ์‹œ๊ธฐ ๋ฐ”๋ž๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์‹ํ’ˆ, ์Œ๋ฃŒ ๋ฐ ํฌ์žฅ ๋น„์šฉ์€ ๋‹น๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋งค์ถœ์˜ 26.5%๋ฅผ ์ฐจ์ง€ํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 100๋ฒ ์ด์‹œ์Šคํฌ์ธํŠธ ์ด์ƒ ๊ฐœ์„ ๋œ ์ˆ˜์น˜์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๊ฐœ์„ ์€ ์ฃผ๋กœ ์‹œ์žฅ ๋ฐ€์ง‘๋„ ํ–ฅ์ƒ๊ณผ ์›์žฌ๋ฃŒ ํ†ตํ•ฉ์„ ํ†ตํ•œ ์œ ํ†ต ๋น„์šฉ ์ ˆ๊ฐ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ฃผ์š” ์›์žฌ๋ฃŒ์˜ ์œ ๋ฆฌํ•œ ๊ณ„์•ฝ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ์ฑ…์ •์— ๊ธฐ์ธํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Labor and related expenses were 28.9% of revenue for the first quarter in line with the prior year period. Occupancy and related expenses were 9.4% of revenue, slightly higher than the prior year period. Operating support center costs in the first quarter increased slightly versus the prior year period on a dollar basis. As a percentage of revenue year-over-year operating support center costs for the first quarter decreased slightly to 16.7% from 17.1%. Net loss for the quarter was $25 million as compared to a loss of $26.1 million in the prior year period.1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์ธ๊ฑด๋น„ ๋ฐ ๊ด€๋ จ ๋น„์šฉ์€ ๋งค์ถœ์•ก์˜ 28.9%๋ฅผ ์ฐจ์ง€ํ•˜์—ฌ ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ์™€ ๋น„์Šทํ•œ ์ˆ˜์ค€์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ž„์ฐจ๋ฃŒ ๋ฐ ๊ด€๋ จ ๋น„์šฉ์€ ๋งค์ถœ์•ก์˜ 9.4%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ•˜๋ฉฐ ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์†Œํญ ์ƒ์Šนํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์šด์˜์ง€์›์„ผํ„ฐ ๋น„์šฉ์€ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ๊ธˆ์•ก ๊ธฐ์ค€์œผ๋กœ ์•ฝ๊ฐ„ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งค์ถœ์•ก ๋Œ€๋น„ ๋น„์ค‘์œผ๋กœ๋Š” 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์šด์˜์ง€์›์„ผํ„ฐ ๋น„์šฉ์ด ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ์˜ 17.1%์—์„œ 16.7%๋กœ ์†Œํญ ๊ฐ์†Œํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์ˆœ์†์‹ค์€ 2,500๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ, ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ์˜ 2,610๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ˆœ์†์‹ค ๋Œ€๋น„ ๊ฐœ์„ ๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
The decrease in net loss is primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in our restaurant level profit partially offset by an increase in depreciation amortization expense primarily associated with an increase in new restaurants. Adjusted EBITDA, which excludes stock based compensation and certain other adjustments, was $300,000 for the first quarter. Our balance sheet remains strong with a cash balance of $184 million. Now I would like to provide an update for our shareholders on the potential impact of tariffs across three key areas of our business. First, supply chain, second the restaurant build out costs and third, the Infinite Kitchen.์ˆœ์†์‹ค ๊ฐ์†Œ๋Š” ์ฃผ๋กœ ๋ ˆ์Šคํ† ๋ž‘ ์ˆ˜์ค€์˜ ์ˆ˜์ต์ด 120๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•œ ๋ฐ ๋”ฐ๋ฅธ ๊ฒƒ์ด๋‚˜, ์‹ ๊ทœ ๋ ˆ์Šคํ† ๋ž‘ ์ฆ๊ฐ€์™€ ๊ด€๋ จ๋œ ๊ฐ๊ฐ€์ƒ๊ฐ๋น„ ์ƒ์Šน์œผ๋กœ ์ผ๋ถ€ ์ƒ์‡„๋˜์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฃผ์‹ ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜ ๋ณด์ƒ๊ณผ ๊ธฐํƒ€ ํŠน์ • ์กฐ์ • ํ•ญ๋ชฉ์„ ์ œ์™ธํ•œ ์กฐ์ • EBITDA๋Š” 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— 30๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ์žฌ๋ฌด์ƒํƒœํ‘œ๋Š” 1์–ต 8,400๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์˜ ํ˜„๊ธˆ ์ž”๊ณ ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์œ ํ•˜๋ฉฐ ๊ฒฌ๊ณ ํ•œ ์ƒํƒœ๋ฅผ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด์ œ ์ฃผ์ฃผ ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ถ„๊ป˜ ๋‹น์‚ฌ ์‚ฌ์—…์˜ ์„ธ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ์ฃผ์š” ์˜์—ญ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๊ด€์„ธ ์˜ํ–ฅ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅ์„ฑ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ณ ์ž ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฒซ์งธ๋Š” ๊ณต๊ธ‰๋ง, ๋‘˜์งธ๋Š” ๋ ˆ์Šคํ† ๋ž‘ ๊ฑด์„ค ๋น„์šฉ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์…‹์งธ๋Š” ์ธํ”ผ๋‹ˆํŠธ ํ‚ค์นœ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
From a supply chain perspective, our exposure remains relatively contained. The vast majority of our core ingredients are domestically sourced. At this time our exposure to tariffs is about 75 basis points for the second quarter of 2025. Most of this impact comes from just a few items, primarily our packaging, which is currently sourced from China. Six months ago we began a project to move packaging out of China and we anticipate this to be completed during second half of 2025. We expect the tariff impact to be reduced in the second half of the year to approximately 40 basis points. This does not reflect the impact of any further mitigation initiatives.๊ณต๊ธ‰๋ง ๊ด€์ ์—์„œ ๋ณผ ๋•Œ, ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ๋ฆฌ์Šคํฌ ๋…ธ์ถœ๋„๋Š” ๋น„๊ต์  ์ œํ•œ์ ์ธ ์ˆ˜์ค€์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•ต์‹ฌ ์›์žฌ๋ฃŒ์˜ ๋Œ€๋ถ€๋ถ„์€ ๊ตญ๋‚ด์—์„œ ์กฐ๋‹ฌํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฌ 2025๋…„ 2๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๊ธฐ์ค€์œผ๋กœ ๊ด€์„ธ ๋…ธ์ถœ๋„๋Š” ์•ฝ 75๋ฒ ์ด์‹œ์Šคํฌ์ธํŠธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์˜ํ–ฅ์˜ ๋Œ€๋ถ€๋ถ„์€ ์†Œ์ˆ˜์˜ ํ’ˆ๋ชฉ, ์ฃผ๋กœ ํ˜„์žฌ ์ค‘๊ตญ์—์„œ ์กฐ๋‹ฌํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ํฌ์žฅ์žฌ์—์„œ ๊ธฐ์ธํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 6๊ฐœ์›” ์ „๋ถ€ํ„ฐ ํฌ์žฅ์žฌ ์กฐ๋‹ฌ์„ ์ค‘๊ตญ์—์„œ ๋‹ค๋ฅธ ์ง€์—ญ์œผ๋กœ ์ด์ „ํ•˜๋Š” ํ”„๋กœ์ ํŠธ๋ฅผ ์‹œ์ž‘ํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋Š” 2025๋…„ ํ•˜๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ ์ค‘์— ์™„๋ฃŒ๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ์—๋Š” ๊ด€์„ธ ์˜ํ–ฅ์ด ์•ฝ 40๋ฒ ์ด์‹œ์Šคํฌ์ธํŠธ๋กœ ๊ฐ์†Œํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ์ถ”๊ฐ€์ ์ธ ๋ฆฌ์Šคํฌ ์™„ํ™” ์กฐ์น˜๋“ค์˜ ์˜ํ–ฅ์€ ๋ฐ˜์˜ํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š์€ ์ˆ˜์น˜์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
As we plan for the build out of our 2025 real estate pipeline, we anticipate tariffs will have an approximate 10% impact on our $1.4 million to $1.5 million per unit build out costs. Importantly, this impact is not expected until late in 2025 as we have pre purchased number of key components. Our team continues to diversify our supply base, avoid cost pass throughs and is focused on securing multi-year pricing agreements with key partners to further mitigate the tariff impact. On the Infinite Kitchen, as Jonathan mentioned, weโ€™re extremely encouraged by their performance. These restaurants continue to outperform expectations in both efficiency and guest satisfaction.2025๋…„ ๋ถ€๋™์‚ฐ ํŒŒ์ดํ”„๋ผ์ธ ๊ตฌ์ถ• ๊ณ„ํš๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จํ•˜์—ฌ, ๊ด€์„ธ๊ฐ€ ๋งค์žฅ๋‹น 140๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์—์„œ 150๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์ˆ˜์ค€์˜ ๊ตฌ์ถ• ๋น„์šฉ์— ์•ฝ 10% ์ •๋„์˜ ์˜ํ–ฅ์„ ๋ฏธ์น  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ฃผ๋ชฉํ•  ์ ์€, ํ•ต์‹ฌ ๋ถ€ํ’ˆ๋“ค์„ ์‚ฌ์ „ ๊ตฌ๋งคํ•ด๋‘” ์ƒํƒœ์ด๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์— ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์˜ํ–ฅ์€ 2025๋…„ ํ›„๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ๊นŒ์ง€๋Š” ๋ฐœ์ƒํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š์„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ ํŒ€์€ ์ง€์†์ ์œผ๋กœ ๊ณต๊ธ‰๋ง์„ ๋‹ค๊ฐํ™”ํ•˜๊ณ , ๋น„์šฉ ์ „๊ฐ€๋ฅผ ๋ฐฉ์ง€ํ•˜๋ฉฐ, ๊ด€์„ธ ์˜ํ–ฅ์„ ๋”์šฑ ์™„ํ™”ํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ์ฃผ์š” ํŒŒํŠธ๋„ˆ์‚ฌ๋“ค๊ณผ ๋‹ค๋…„๊ฐ„์˜ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ๊ณ„์•ฝ์„ ์ฒด๊ฒฐํ•˜๋Š” ๋ฐ ์ฃผ๋ ฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ธํ”ผ๋‹ˆํŠธ ํ‚ค์นœ(Infinite Kitchen)๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จํ•ด์„œ๋Š”, Jonathan์ด ์–ธ๊ธ‰ํ–ˆ๋“ฏ์ด, ๊ทธ ์„ฑ๊ณผ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋งค์šฐ ๊ณ ๋ฌด์ ์œผ๋กœ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๋ ˆ์Šคํ† ๋ž‘๋“ค์€ ์šด์˜ ํšจ์œจ์„ฑ๊ณผ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๋งŒ์กฑ๋„ ๋ชจ๋‘์—์„œ ๊ธฐ๋Œ€ ์ด์ƒ์˜ ์„ฑ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ์ง€์†์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
As we scale the Infinite Kitchen which costs approximately 450,000 to 550,000 per unit, we are closely monitoring the impact of tariffs on our cost structure. Currently, roughly 15% of each unitโ€™s cost is tied to components sourced from China. We have 10 IKs on hand that were not impacted by tariffs. While the current tariff rate on Chinese goods will impact the Infinite Kitchen, it remains accretive to our return on capital due to the long-term labor savings, consistency and improvements in throughput. We remain committed to the expansion of the Infinite Kitchen and reiterate our 2025 new unit and IK guidance.

As we look out on the next three quarters, we are highly cognizant that this is a dynamic environment. As you have heard from others across our industry and seen in recent data consumer sentiment has fallen sharply. After returning to positive comp sales performance in March, we saw a mid-single digit decline in the same-store sales during April, coinciding with the tariff announcements. Historically, April has always shown a ramp in performance as seasonal patterns kick in. This is the first time we havenโ€™t seen that lift.ํ–ฅํ›„ 3๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋ฅผ ์ „๋งํ•ด๋ณผ ๋•Œ, ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ํ˜„์žฌ์˜ ์—ญ๋™์ ์ธ ์‹œ์žฅ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์„ ๋งค์šฐ ๋ฉด๋ฐ€ํžˆ ์ฃผ์‹œํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—…๊ณ„ ์ „๋ฐ˜์—์„œ ๋“ค์œผ์…จ๊ฒ ๊ณ  ์ตœ๊ทผ ๋ฐ์ดํ„ฐ์—์„œ๋„ ๋ณด์…จ๋“ฏ์ด, ์†Œ๋น„์ž ์‹ฌ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ๊ธ‰๊ฒฉํžˆ ํ•˜๋ฝํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 3์›”์—๋Š” ๋น„๊ต๊ฐ€๋Šฅ ๋งค์ถœ(comp sales)์ด ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค๋กœ ์ „ํ™˜๋˜์—ˆ์œผ๋‚˜, ๊ด€์„ธ ๋ฐœํ‘œ์™€ ๋งž๋ฌผ๋ ค 4์›”์—๋Š” ๋™์ผ์  ๋งค์ถœ(same-store sales)์ด ์ค‘๋‹จ์œ„ ์ž๋ฆฟ์ˆ˜ ๊ฐ์†Œ๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณผ๊ฑฐ๋ฅผ ๋Œ์•„๋ณด๋ฉด 4์›”์€ ๊ณ„์ ˆ์  ํŒจํ„ด์ด ์‹œ์ž‘๋˜๋ฉด์„œ ์‹ค์ ์ด ์ƒ์Šนํ•˜๋Š” ๋‹ฌ์ด์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค๋งŒ, ์ด๋ฒˆ์—๋Š” ์ฒ˜์Œ์œผ๋กœ ๊ทธ๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ƒ์Šน์„ธ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์ง€ ๋ชปํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

The translation captures both the technical financial content and the speaker's careful observation of market trends.
We believe this is noteworthy and reflective of the volatile external environment and the softening consumer sentiment marked by more deliberate purchasing behavior and lower frequency across discretionary categories. Our outlook assumes that the current trends continue and layers in the positive impact of upcoming menu initiatives as well as continued ramp in our new loyalty program. As we considered our fiscal year guidance, we assume no further deterioration in macroeconomic conditions. As always, our forecast is based on the information available to us today and we recognize that uncertainty in the macro environment remains elevated. For fiscal year 2025, we anticipate the following.์ด๋Š” ์ฃผ๋ชฉํ•  ๋งŒํ•œ ํ˜„์ƒ์ด๋ฉฐ, ๋ถˆ์•ˆ์ •ํ•œ ๋Œ€์™ธ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ๊ณผ ์†Œ๋น„์ž ์‹ฌ๋ฆฌ ์•ฝํ™”๋ฅผ ๋ฐ˜์˜ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ํŒ๋‹จ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํŠนํžˆ ์†Œ๋น„์ž๋“ค์˜ ์‹ ์ค‘ํ•œ ๊ตฌ๋งค ํ–‰ํƒœ์™€ ์ž์œ ์žฌ๋Ÿ‰์  ์นดํ…Œ๊ณ ๋ฆฌ์—์„œ์˜ ๊ตฌ๋งค ๋นˆ๋„ ๊ฐ์†Œ๊ฐ€ ํŠน์ง•์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ์ „๋ง์€ ํ˜„์žฌ์˜ ์ถ”์„ธ๊ฐ€ ์ง€์†๋  ๊ฒƒ์ด๋ผ๋Š” ๊ฐ€์ •ํ•˜์—, ํ–ฅํ›„ ๋„์ž…๋  ๋ฉ”๋‰ด ์ด๋‹ˆ์…”ํ‹ฐ๋ธŒ์˜ ๊ธ์ •์  ์˜ํ–ฅ๊ณผ ์‹ ๊ทœ ๋กœ์—ดํ‹ฐ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ์˜ ์ง€์†์ ์ธ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ๊ณ ๋ คํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค ์ˆ˜๋ฆฝ์— ์žˆ์–ด ๊ฑฐ์‹œ๊ฒฝ์ œ ์—ฌ๊ฑด์˜ ์ถ”๊ฐ€์ ์ธ ์•…ํ™”๋Š” ์—†์„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ๊ฐ€์ •ํ•˜์˜€์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•ญ์ƒ ๊ทธ๋ž˜์™”๋“ฏ์ด, ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ์˜ˆ์ธก์€ ํ˜„์žฌ ์‹œ์ ์—์„œ ์ด์šฉ ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•œ ์ •๋ณด๋ฅผ ๋ฐ”ํƒ•์œผ๋กœ ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ๊ฑฐ์‹œ๊ฒฝ์ œ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์˜ ๋ถˆํ™•์‹ค์„ฑ์ด ์—ฌ์ „ํžˆ ๋†’์€ ์ˆ˜์ค€์ž„์„ ์ธ์ง€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2025 ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋‹ค์Œ๊ณผ ๊ฐ™์ด ์ „๋งํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
At least 40 net new restaurant openings, revenue ranging from $740 million to $760 million, same-store sales growth approximately flat, restaurant level margin of approximately 19.5%, adjusted EBITDA of approximately $30 million. On the development front, 20 of our 40 restaurants will feature the Infinite Kitchen. In terms of pipeline timing, 30 of our 40 plan new restaurants will open in the second half of the year. We do not anticipate any price increases for the remainder of the year. While the external environment may create some short-term volatility, particularly around traffic and frequency, we believe we have strong levers to navigate this moment.์ตœ์†Œ 40๊ฐœ์˜ ์ˆœ์‹ ๊ทœ ๋งค์žฅ ์˜คํ”ˆ, ๋งค์ถœ์€ 7์–ต 4์ฒœ๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์—์„œ 7์–ต 6์ฒœ๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๋ฒ”์œ„, ๊ธฐ์กด์  ๋งค์ถœ ์„ฑ์žฅ๋ฅ ์€ ๋Œ€์ฒด๋กœ ๋ณดํ•ฉ, ๋งค์žฅ ๋‹จ์œ„ ์˜์—…์ด์ต๋ฅ ์€ ์•ฝ 19.5%, ์กฐ์ • EBITDA๋Š” ์•ฝ 3์ฒœ๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ์ „๋งํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์‹ ๊ทœ ์ถœ์ ๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จํ•˜์—ฌ, 40๊ฐœ ๋งค์žฅ ์ค‘ 20๊ฐœ๋Š” ์ธํ”ผ๋‹ˆํŠธ ํ‚ค์นœ์„ ๋„์ž…ํ•  ์˜ˆ์ •์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ถœ์  ์ผ์ •๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ๊ณ„ํš๋œ 40๊ฐœ ์‹ ๊ทœ ๋งค์žฅ ์ค‘ 30๊ฐœ๊ฐ€ ํ•˜๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ์— ์˜คํ”ˆ๋  ์˜ˆ์ •์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ฌํ•ด ๋‚จ์€ ๊ธฐ๊ฐ„ ๋™์•ˆ ์ถ”๊ฐ€์ ์ธ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ์ธ์ƒ์€ ๊ณ„ํšํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์ง€ ์•Š์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์™ธ๋ถ€ ํ™˜๊ฒฝ์ด ํŠนํžˆ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ํŠธ๋ž˜ํ”ฝ๊ณผ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ ๋นˆ๋„ ์ธก๋ฉด์—์„œ ๋‹จ๊ธฐ์ ์ธ ๋ณ€๋™์„ฑ์„ ์•ผ๊ธฐํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์ง€๋งŒ, ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ƒํ™ฉ์„ ํ—ค์ณ๋‚˜๊ฐˆ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์ˆ˜๋‹จ๋“ค์„ ๋ณด์œ ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ๋ฏฟ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

As the year progresses and comps get easier in the second half of the year, we believe thereโ€™s a clear path to accelerate momentum. We remain extremely confident in our strategies and the underlying health of our business. We have built a strong business, a differentiated brand and a flexible omni-channel platform that allows us to adapt and drive sustainable growth.ํŠนํžˆ ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๋กœ์—ดํ‹ฐ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ๊ณผ ์‹œ์ฆŒ๋ณ„ ์ƒํ’ˆ ์ œ๊ณต์—์„œ ์˜๋ฏธ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ธฐํšŒ๋ฅผ ๋ฐœ๊ฒฌํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹ค์Œ ์ฃผ CO2E ์Šคํ…Œ์ดํฌํ•˜์šฐ์Šค์™€์˜ ํ˜‘์—…์„ ํฌํ•จํ•˜์—ฌ, ์•„์ง ์ถœ์‹œ๋˜์ง€ ์•Š์€ ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ์œ ์น˜ ์ด๋‹ˆ์…”ํ‹ฐ๋ธŒ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์œ ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ฌํ•ด ํ•˜๋ฐ˜๊ธฐ๋กœ ๊ฐˆ์ˆ˜๋ก ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ์‹ค์  ๋น„๊ต๊ฐ€ ์šฉ์ดํ•ด์ง€๋ฉด์„œ, ์„ฑ์žฅ ๋ชจ๋ฉ˜ํ…€์„ ๊ฐ€์†ํ™”ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๋ช…ํ™•ํ•œ ๊ฒฝ๋กœ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ๋ฏฟ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๋‹น์‚ฌ์˜ ์ „๋žต๊ณผ ์‚ฌ์—…์˜ ๊ทผ๋ณธ์ ์ธ ๊ฑด์ „์„ฑ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋งค์šฐ ๊ฐ•ํ•œ ํ™•์‹ ์„ ๊ฐ€์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๊ฒฌ๊ณ ํ•œ ์‚ฌ์—… ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜๊ณผ ์ฐจ๋ณ„ํ™”๋œ ๋ธŒ๋žœ๋“œ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ํ™˜๊ฒฝ ๋ณ€ํ™”์— ์ ์‘ํ•˜๊ณ  ์ง€์† ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•œ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ์ถ”์ง„ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์œ ์—ฐํ•œ ์˜ด๋‹ˆ์ฑ„๋„ ํ”Œ๋žซํผ์„ ๊ตฌ์ถ•ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Operator

[Operator Instructions] Our first question comes from the line of Jon Tower with Citigroup. Please go ahead. Jon Tower

There we go. Thanks. I guess, maybe starting โ€“ I appreciate all the color you offered in tariffs and in terms of across the business in IK. And I think thatโ€™s certainly a point of a question that Iโ€™m getting a lot from investors. So I just want to clarify and make sure that I understand. It looks like all in based on the range for build out costs and including an Infinite Kitchen, itโ€™ll be roughly 32% to 37% higher than what you guys had originally targeted for stores previously for build out costs with these tariffs in place.

Note: The translation maintains the formal business tone while accurately conveying the financial terminology (๊ด€์„ธ, ๊ตฌ์ถ• ๋น„์šฉ, ํˆฌ์ž์ž ๋“ฑ) and the specific numerical references. The Korean version is structured to sound natural while preserving the professional context of an earnings call.
And thatโ€™s kind of the current situation that you know, for tariffs coming in from China. Thatโ€™s not assuming any changes at the moment for whatโ€™s going to happen going forward. Mitch Reback

Hi Jon, itโ€™s Mitch. I think what I would say is the build out cost for an NRO with no tariffs is approximately $1.5 million. And as of now we see that tariff running about a 10% of that type of number. So call it $150,000 per unit. And on the Infinite Kitchen call an average cost of $500,000 per IK, the tariff is approximately $100,000. So you would see a total tariff impact of about 2.5 โ€“ $250,000 on a $2 million build out.

So just a little bit over 10% and I should point out in this dynamic world that says of the tariffs as of last night. Jon Tower

Okay. And just โ€“ go ahead, sorry. Jonathan Neman

So Jon, just one thing to add. We mentioned on the call that weโ€™ve pre-bought materials for the majority of our pipeline this year. So a lot of that impact including some Infinite Kitchens on hand. So that is not impacting the entire pipeline this year we really start to see the impact on the build out in Q4 and we do have a good number of IKs on hand and working to diversify the supply base there.

The other thing Iโ€™d say is, over the years weโ€™ve talked to you all about the work weโ€™re doing to optimize the overall build out cost. So this is all on a kind of apples-to-apples basis. Weโ€™ve obviously been working really hard on new formats and just general cost optimization. So our hope is to mitigate as much of this as possible. But this is just kind of if we took the impact as a straight apples-to-apples. Jon Tower

Got it. And maybe just one follow-up, Jon, you mentioned in the prepared remarks the idea of perhaps adding more mid to lower priced items to the menu, either evergreen or LTO options for value. Like one, where are you in that process?

And then two, how do you plan on communicating that to guests? Youโ€™re not necessarily a traditional marketer nor would I expect you to be out there blasting the airwaves with a value pitch per se. So is this something we should expect more through the rewards program or more through point of purchase? Like how do you plan on getting that message out to folks who might not be aware that now there is something thatโ€™s more approachable? Jonathan Neman

So I think what Iโ€™d start with is, if you look back over the past five years in the high inflationary environment, weโ€™ve actually taken less price than most of the industry.

What we have done is in an effort to broaden our TAM and broaden our consumer, we did introduce these hardier, warmer options, things like protein plates and steak. And the beautiful news about that is they really did work in unlocking a lot of those TAM markets. You can see that in the strength of those new markets and the comp in the emerging markets. But as we did that, some of the price value perception, if you look at our menu, you now have this higher category price things, great value for dinner. But weโ€™ve noticed some price gaps on the menu kind of in the middle or lower tier. So we see a couple of ways that we can do that. One is through our seasonal menu.์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ TAM(์ „์ฒด ์‹œ์žฅ ๊ทœ๋ชจ)์„ ํ™•๋Œ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ์†Œ๋น„์ž์ธต์„ ๋„“ํžˆ๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ์ทจํ•œ ์กฐ์น˜๋Š” ๋‹จ๋ฐฑ์งˆ ํ”Œ๋ ˆ์ดํŠธ๋‚˜ ์Šคํ…Œ์ดํฌ์™€ ๊ฐ™์€ ๋” ๋“ ๋“ ํ•˜๊ณ  ๋”ฐ๋œปํ•œ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด ์˜ต์…˜๋“ค์„ ๋„์ž…ํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ ๋ฌด์ ์ธ ์ ์€ ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋“ค์ด ์‹ค์ œ๋กœ TAM ์‹œ์žฅ ๊ฐœ์ฒ™์— ํฐ ํšจ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์˜€๋‹ค๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ์‹ ๊ทœ ์‹œ์žฅ์˜ ๊ฐ•์„ธ์™€ ์‹ ํฅ ์‹œ์žฅ์—์„œ์˜ ๋™์ผ ๋งค์žฅ ์„ฑ์žฅ๋ฅ ์„ ํ†ตํ•ด ํ™•์ธํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์ด ๊ณผ์ •์—์„œ, ๋ฉ”๋‰ดํŒ์„ ๋ณด์‹œ๋ฉด ์ €๋… ์‹์‚ฌ๋กœ ํ›Œ๋ฅญํ•œ ๊ฐ€์น˜๋ฅผ ์ œ๊ณตํ•˜๋Š” ๊ณ ๊ฐ€ ์นดํ…Œ๊ณ ๋ฆฌ๊ฐ€ ์ƒ๊ธฐ๋ฉด์„œ, ์ค‘๊ฐ„๋Œ€๋‚˜ ์ €๊ฐ€ ๊ตฌ๊ฐ„์—์„œ ์ผ๋ถ€ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ๊ฒฉ์ฐจ๊ฐ€ ๋ฐœ์ƒํ–ˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์„ ๋ฐœ๊ฒฌํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋ฅผ ํ•ด๊ฒฐํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๋ฐฉ๋ฒ•์œผ๋กœ ๋ช‡ ๊ฐ€์ง€๋ฅผ ๊ณ ๋ คํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ๊ทธ ์ค‘ ํ•˜๋‚˜๊ฐ€ ์‹œ์ฆŒ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋ฅผ ํ†ตํ•œ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Our seasonal menu allows us to flex into different price points. We do see some opportunities to potentially introduce some things in the core. We would not present them as necessarily as a value menu to your point. It would just be kind of finding things, kind of anchoring more of the menu in the middle โ€“ mid to lower price tiers. And of course, loyalty becomes a really big lever for us to be more surgical and personalized around how we can create the right customer journeys, the right promo and the right next best action to drive the long-term value of our customers. So we have a lot of levers at hand.์‹œ์ฆŒ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋ฅผ ํ†ตํ•ด ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๋‹ค์–‘ํ•œ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ๋Œ€๋ฅผ ์œ ์—ฐํ•˜๊ฒŒ ์šด์˜ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ธฐ๋ณธ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด์—๋„ ์ƒˆ๋กœ์šด ํ’ˆ๋ชฉ์„ ๋„์ž…ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ธฐํšŒ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ง์”€ํ•˜์‹  ๋Œ€๋กœ ์ด๋ฅผ ๋ฐ˜๋“œ์‹œ ๊ฐ€์น˜ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด๋กœ ์ œ์‹œํ•˜์ง€๋Š” ์•Š์„ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹ค๋งŒ ๋ฉ”๋‰ด์˜ ์ค‘๊ฐ„ - ์ค‘์ €๊ฐ€ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ๋Œ€์— ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ํ’ˆ๋ชฉ์„ ๋ฐฐ์น˜ํ•˜๋Š” ๋ฐฉ์‹์ด ๋  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ฌผ๋ก  ๋กœ์—ดํ‹ฐ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ์€ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์—๊ฒŒ ๋งค์šฐ ์ค‘์š”ํ•œ ์ˆ˜๋‹จ์ด ๋˜์–ด, ๊ณ ๊ฐ ์—ฌ์ •๊ณผ ํ”„๋กœ๋ชจ์…˜, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ๋‹ค์Œ ์ตœ์ ์˜ ํ–‰๋™์„ ๋ณด๋‹ค ์ •๊ตํ•˜๊ณ  ๊ฐœ์ธํ™”๋œ ๋ฐฉ์‹์œผ๋กœ ์„ค๊ณ„ํ•˜์—ฌ ๊ณ ๊ฐ์˜ ์žฅ๊ธฐ์  ๊ฐ€์น˜๋ฅผ ์ฐฝ์ถœํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๊ฒŒ ํ•ด์ค๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด์ฒ˜๋Ÿผ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ๋‹ค์–‘ํ•œ ์ „๋žต์  ์ˆ˜๋‹จ์„ ๋ณด์œ ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
And I think given โ€“ we mentioned on the call is, given the way our menu is constructed, we have the ability to move pretty quickly in terms of coming up with new menu items and coming up with things that both the consumers love. We can execute seamlessly and can kind of meet our margin profile. So the world changed pretty quickly here in April. But have a lot of tools at our disposal. Jon Tower

Great. Thanks for taking the questions. Operator

Our next question comes from the line of Sara Senatore with Bank of America. Please go ahead. Sara Senatore

Thank you. Maybe actually, quick question about any differences you might be seeing in terms of geography.

Iโ€™m just thinking about your exposure to D.C. because April has been quite mixed, I think, for different restaurants, and so trying to understand why some might be feeling the impact of lower consumer confidence while others are actually seeing acceleration. So I didnโ€™t know if there was a maybe just your geographic exposure. And then I do have a quick follow-up. Mitch Reback

Hi Sara, thanks for the question. Yes, I would point out two areas in our geography that are probably noteworthy. One that we mentioned on the last call, Los Angeles, which we said was about 15% of our volume, continues to be severely impacted in the aftermath of the LA fires.

In our modeling, we see some lingering impacts of this continuing on for quite a while. And as you pointed out correctly, sometime around the beginning of April, we did see a change in our DC volume. The company began in Washington, D.C., itโ€™s kind of one of the markets that weโ€™re identified with. We have a number of stores there, but I should point out theyโ€™re generally older, smaller stores in the D.C. market. But there clearly was a change in the D.C. performance around the beginning of April. Sara Senatore

Okay, thank you. Very helpful. And then the follow-up is about the breadth of your reach.

Iโ€™m super excited about the collaboration, but that strikes me as a little bit of a New York institution. How do you think about that in terms of appealing? I think, as Jon mentioned, broadening TAM and kind of the things that you do from a culinary perspective. Thanks. Jonathan Neman

Yes. So weโ€™re very excited about this collaboration. I think, itโ€™s beyond just the collaboration. Itโ€™s really about the bold flavors that weโ€™re bringing to market. Weโ€™re excited for everyone to taste it. Itโ€™s a totally different flavor profile. It really leans on both the sourcing and scratch cooking, but brings in this these Korean flavors and leverages our new steak offering with a twist.

So in terms of the actual collaborator, what we โ€“ the reason we do this is it gives us a lot of culinary credibility and it actually the partnership with the chef helps us build truly delicious items. So itโ€™s a part of our storytelling. Thereโ€™s a lot โ€“ huge experiential element as part of it, and we know itโ€™s a core part of how we built this brand and I think something that consumers expect. So what weโ€™ve learned is itโ€™s not just if youโ€™ve heard of it, for us, itโ€™s a huge way to drive discovery for these great chefs that you may or may not know. So very excited about bringing this new flavor and excited to share more with you on the next call. Operator

Thank you. This is Zach Ogden on for Andrew. Just given Aprilโ€™s mid-single-digit decline in same-store sales, could you just walk us through the cadence of sales youโ€™d expect for the rest of 2025 to get the flat for the full year? Mitch Reback

Thatโ€™s probably been the pattern thatโ€™s been in the business since inception, as the weather warms up, our business picks up. This April that did not materialize. Thereโ€™s actually a significant change in the history and in the historical patterns of the business, largely coincided with the tariff announcement and some of the external uncertainty. What we see is the second quarter being challenging, both from a comp perspective led by April, as well as the fact that the launch of our loyalty program as weโ€™ve disclosed, will create some headwinds around our revenue number as we launch that program.๋‚ ์”จ๊ฐ€ ๋”ฐ๋œปํ•ด์ง€๋ฉด ์‚ฌ์—…์ด ํ™œ์„ฑํ™”๋˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ด ์ฐฝ์—… ์ด๋ž˜ ์ง€์†๋˜์–ด ์˜จ ํŒจํ„ด์ด์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์˜ฌํ•ด 4์›”์—๋Š” ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ํŒจํ„ด์ด ๋‚˜ํƒ€๋‚˜์ง€ ์•Š์•˜์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ด€์„ธ ๋ฐœํ‘œ์™€ ๋Œ€์™ธ์  ๋ถˆํ™•์‹ค์„ฑ๊ณผ ๋งž๋ฌผ๋ ค ์‚ฌ์—…์˜ ์—ญ์‚ฌ์  ํŒจํ„ด์— ์ƒ๋‹นํ•œ ๋ณ€ํ™”๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋Š” ์–ด๋ ค์šด ์‹œ๊ธฐ๊ฐ€ ๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์ „๋งํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” 4์›”์˜ ๋ถ€์ง„ํ•œ ์‹ค์  ๋น„๊ต์น˜์™€ ๋”๋ถˆ์–ด, ์ด๋ฏธ ๊ณต์‹œํ•œ ๋ฐ”์™€ ๊ฐ™์ด ๋กœ์—ดํ‹ฐ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ ์ถœ์‹œ๋กœ ์ธํ•ด ๋งค์ถœ์— ์ผ์‹œ์ ์ธ ์—ญํ’์ด ์žˆ์„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋˜๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
During the back half of the year, particularly Q3 and Q4, we see business picking up for a number of reasons. One, we have slightly easier comps during that period. Two, the return of our summer seasonals and fall seasonals. These have been crowd favorites for a number of years that were not on the menu in 2024. And we think theyโ€™ll have a massive impact beginning around July 24.

I should point out, as was kind of alluded to at the beginning, thereโ€™s a degree of synergy between the launch of seasonals and loyalty program, where they can feed each other to help drive frequency and attract new customers. So we think we have a pretty solid lineup of activity actually starting next week with the CO2E collaboration, but really accelerating in July. Zach Ogden

Got it. Thank you. And then just on the Infinite Kitchens, if the tariffs do persist, would that change your aptitude at all to retrofit stores, to IKs going forward? Mitch Reback

No, it really would not at this point in time, change our deployment strategy around the Infinite Kitchen.

When you do the math on the Infinite Kitchen and you take a kind of typical AUV store at $3 million and 8 points of saving, you get around $240,000 annually. If the cost moved up from 500,000 to 600,000, you find the return on capital remains wildly accretive, and thatโ€™s a current labor rates. When you look out over the next 10 years, we see labor continuing to increase and those returns increasing. So I would say the current tariff structure would not change the IK deployment strategy at all. Zach Ogden

Great, thank you. Operator

Okay, thanks. I donโ€™t know what happened before. I guess, I wanted to ask about the markets that you called out, which were โ€“ you talked about LA, but you also mentioned New York and Boston. Is there anything in those markets where you think your perceived value has somehow kind of declined in the recent environment? Is there anything you could point out operationally that maybe is causing those markets to gap differently than some of the other markets that youโ€™re operating in? Jonathan Neman

Thanks for the question, Sharon. So I think thereโ€™s a few things here.

First, Iโ€™d say if you think about the Sweetgreen model over our history, the seasonal menu was a core part of the model. We would change our menu about five times a year. And itโ€™s part of what drove the habituation, the frequency. Itโ€™s what would limit the fatigue and just keep you hooked season after season. With the removal of that, weโ€™ve seen some weakness in the frequency of it, specifically in those core markets where those seasonals did especially well. So weโ€™re encouraged by bringing them back in a really big way, and we think that will help us with the frequency challenges we have.

We made a transition from our SweetPass plus loyalty program, which really had a pretty small member base to a much broader base loyalty program. And weโ€™re acquiring about 20,000 new loyalty members a week. This is pretty much more than each week than the whole SweetPass plus membership base. So thereโ€™s a huge opportunity here to kind of lean into that to continue to drive frequency. And then the last thing Iโ€™d say is that thereโ€™s definitely some operational opportunities we have specifically in a lot of those core legacy markets, specifically in the urban environment on our off-premise channels.์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๊ธฐ์กด์˜ ํšŒ์› ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜์ด ์ƒ๋‹นํžˆ ์ œํ•œ์ ์ด์—ˆ๋˜ SweetPass ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค ๋กœ์—ดํ‹ฐ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ์—์„œ ํ›จ์”ฌ ๋” ๊ด‘๋ฒ”์œ„ํ•œ ํšŒ์› ๊ธฐ๋ฐ˜์˜ ๋กœ์—ดํ‹ฐ ํ”„๋กœ๊ทธ๋žจ์œผ๋กœ ์ „ํ™˜ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ˜„์žฌ ๋งค์ฃผ ์•ฝ 2๋งŒ ๋ช…์˜ ์‹ ๊ทœ ๋กœ์—ดํ‹ฐ ํšŒ์›์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด๋Š” ๊ธฐ์กด SweetPass ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค์˜ ์ „์ฒด ํšŒ์› ์ˆ˜๋ณด๋‹ค ๋งค์ฃผ ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ์ˆ˜์ค€์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋ฅผ ํ†ตํ•ด ๊ณ ๊ฐ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ ๋นˆ๋„๋ฅผ ์ง€์†์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋†’์ผ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ํฐ ๊ธฐํšŒ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ๋ด…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งˆ์ง€๋ง‰์œผ๋กœ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์‹ถ์€ ๊ฒƒ์€, ํŠนํžˆ ํ•ต์‹ฌ ๋ ˆ๊ฑฐ์‹œ ์‹œ์žฅ๋“ค์—์„œ, ๊ตฌ์ฒด์ ์œผ๋กœ๋Š” ๋„์‹ฌ ์ง€์—ญ์˜ ๋ฐฐ๋‹ฌ ์ฑ„๋„์—์„œ ์šด์˜์ƒ์˜ ๊ฐœ์„  ๊ธฐํšŒ๊ฐ€ ๋ถ„๋ช…ํžˆ ์กด์žฌํ•œ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Can you just speak to whatโ€™s behind that particularly throughout last year and start this year? Just any color you could add would be great. Jonathan Neman

Yes. So we continue to see strength on marketplace. I think thereโ€™s a few things. One, I think our product travels well and people love the fact that it just works in an off-premise environment. Two, we continue to optimize our relationships with the marketplaces and how we market and how weโ€™re presented on those marketplaces. And I think a lot of our consumers are there. Lastly, I think not having a loyalty program gave a lot less reason to transact natively and with the loyalty program that should help us there.

Hey, thank you. Just with all this talk, a lot of focus here on April sales trends on this call, just another question there. You said down mid-singles and a change in how April has behaved historically. So I understand your caution, but is there any of this that is explained by your own toughening comparisons that happened into 2Q from 1Q? Is any of April just mathematically driven?

Or are you seeing underlying weakness thatโ€™s making you more cautious on the near-term and on 2Q? Jonathan Neman

Yes. Brian. I think that the more challenging comp period for the business will come actually in the next week as we launch โ€“ a successful launch of steak gets lapped. So Coke [ph] will lap over the launch of steak a year ago. I think the April caution and, results and the caution on the second quarter largely come from what we saw in April where we had a period of limited menu and marketing activity, but that kind of lapped the same type of situation last April. It really reflects much more of an external environment and kind of our take on consumer sentiment.

Okay. And then just real quick on your guidance for the year for adjusted EBITDA now approximately $30 million. Iโ€™m just trying to bridge to that guidance in my own model when I use the midpoint of your revenue and your restaurant margin guidance. The bridge from there

is about flat G&A year-over-year versus last year on an adjusted basis. Is that the right math there? Is that how youโ€™re thinking about G&A as it relates to that $30 million of adjusted EBITDA? Mitch Reback

Yes.

I would point out and say that, really since the time we went public, the company continues to focus on gaining leverage in our G&A, and we continue to focus on that and accelerate that in this environment and to make changes where we can adjust the G&A down without impacting our strategies or our development. And we will continue to really relentlessly pursue that in this environment. Brian Bittner

So I was wondering if there were any updates to how youโ€™re thinking about capital allocation and investment priorities in light of the tougher macro environment and other external factors. I think, Jon, you mentioned a 15% to 20%-unit growth. Is that still a good anchor for the next few years? And what are some of the factors and triggers that could potentially shift that trajectory? Thank you. Jonathan Neman

Hey, Christine. Thanks for the question. I think what we said is that we were going to anticipate having a 15% algorithm and accelerating it up to 20% over time. That is still the correct algorithm.

And while youโ€™re correct that the external environment right now is certainly more challenging and changed somewhat abruptly around the April.

Overall, very encouraged. Like I said, weโ€™re requiring about 20,000 โ€“ 20,000 new digital customers on those SG rewards program per week.

And weโ€™re starting to see some promising โ€“ Iโ€™d say some promising opportunities around the customer journeys and how we can drive the incremental visit.

What will โ€“ what could evolve on sort of operations priorities? Jonathan Neman

Absolutely. So weโ€™re really excited for Jason to join us, and he brings a wealth of experience specifically in restaurants. The focus areas for us really are in terms of tightening up our standards, to deliver consistently the quality food that customers expect. We also see a big opportunity I mentioned earlier on our digital make lines and making sure weโ€™re delivering accurately and with the right portion size. We see a big opportunity there. And then the last thing Iโ€™ll say is with the growth plans we have ahead, we want to make sure our people flywheel is unlocked.

Today, weโ€™re seeing about 50% of head coaches being promoted internally. We would like to take that number up over time. We see our internal promotes being more successful. So the other thing is how we can build better leadership capability and have a pipeline of future leaders. So, you know, itโ€™s operations. Itโ€™s really, itโ€™s all the little details to deliver, whether itโ€™s the right tools, the right systems, and most importantly the right culture and leadership in each and every store. And weโ€™re very confident in the wealth of leadership and experience that Jason will bring as well as the rest of our ops leadership team to continue to deliver on the Sweetgreen promise.

Thanks guys. Operator

And our final question comes from the line of Rahul Krotthapalli with JPMorgan. Please go ahead. Rahul Krotthapalli

Hi, guys. Jonathan, a lot has been discussed in terms of how advertising costs could get very low on a per transaction basis. I think especially as agencies given to AI models and, like, large brands and the consumer and Internet industry are catching up on this. You have been leading the space in business transformation in multiple areas of your operations, whatnot. Curious how you think about this area, on advertising and marketing spend. This is going to be a big focus going forward for your sales and traffic driver?

Raul, thanks for the question. I do think itโ€™s a huge opportunity. Weโ€™ve been leveraging AI across the business in a number of use cases, whether it be workforce management, talent selection, and customer service, et cetera. And I think thereโ€™s a lot of opportunities to leverage AI in terms of our โ€“ in terms of loyalty and customer acquisition as well. So weโ€™re exploring and testing a bunch of things today. Weโ€™re hopeful that it can help us in terms of our cost per acquisition of customers and our retention, but Iโ€™d say itโ€™s still early days. But a number of tests and pilots that the team is all over right now. Rahul Krotthapalli
