Wednesday, July 29, 2026 · 4:10 PM ET PR Newswire

"RECIPE FOR GROWTH" STRATEGY YIELDS COMPARABLE RESTAURANT SALES OF 2.2% ON SECOND CONSECUTIVE QUARTER OF IMPROVING TRANSACTION COMP

NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., July 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE: CMG) today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Second quarter highlights, year over year:

Total revenue increased 9.3% to $3.3 billion
Comparable restaurant sales increased 2.2%
Operating margin was 15.7%, a decrease from 18.2%
Restaurant level operating margin¹ was 25.2%, a decrease from 27.4%
Diluted earnings per share remained flat at $0.32
Adjusted diluted earnings per share¹ remained flat at $0.33
Opened 100 company-owned restaurants, with 80 locations including a Chipotlane. We also opened one international partner-operated restaurant.

"Our positive results reflect the momentum we're building as our Recipe for Growth strategy continues to take shape," said Scott Boatwright, Chief Executive Officer, Chipotle. "We're seeing encouraging progress because we're focused on the right growth drivers—bringing meaningful menu innovation to our guests, deepening engagement through Chipotle Rewards, elevating hospitality in every restaurant, and expanding opportunities to serve more group occasions. These efforts are building a stronger business and reinforcing our confidence in Chipotle's ability to deliver sustainable long-term growth and shareholder value."

Results for the three months ended June 30, 2026:

Total revenue in the second quarter of 2026 was $3.3 billion, an increase of 9.3% compared to the second quarter of 2025. The increase was driven by new restaurant openings and, to a lesser extent, comparable restaurant sales. Comparable restaurant sales increased 2.2%, consisting of a 1.2% increase in average check and a 1.0% increase in transactions. Digital sales represented 38.3% of total food and beverage revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase from 35.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.

During the second quarter we opened 100 company-owned restaurants, of which 80 included a Chipotlane, and one international partner-operated restaurant. Chipotlanes continue to perform well and are helping enhance guest access and convenience, as well as increase new restaurant sales, margins and returns.

Food, beverage and packaging costs in the second quarter of 2026 were 29.7% of total revenue, an increase from 28.9% in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was driven by inflation, primarily from beef and freight, and higher protein and produce usage. These increases were partially offset by the benefit of menu price increases and lower avocado and dairy costs.

Labor costs in the second quarter of 2026 were 25.0% of total revenue, an increase from 24.7% in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher employee compensation, including wage inflation and performance-based bonuses, and additional restaurant labor supporting operational execution, including hospitality initiatives. These headwinds were partially offset by the benefit from menu price increases.

General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2026 were $190.5 million, compared to $172.2 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was driven by legal reserves, performance bonuses, wages, and restructuring costs, partially offset by lower stock-based compensation. Adjusted general and administrative expenses¹ for the second quarter of 2026 were $176.2 million, compared to $159.9 million in the second quarter of 2025.

The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 2026 was 24.3%, a decrease from 24.5% in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in U.S. federal income tax credits, partially offset by lower tax benefits from stock option exercises and equity vesting.

Net income for the second quarter of 2026 was $403.5 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, compared to $436.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted net income¹ for the second quarter of 2026 was $418.9 million, or $0.33 per adjusted diluted share, compared to $450.4 million, or $0.33 per adjusted diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025.

During the second quarter of 2026 we repurchased $630.7 million of stock at an average price per share of $32.55. As of June 30, 2026, $1.7 billion remained available under share repurchase authorizations from our Board of Directors, including an additional $1.3 billion in authorizations approved by our Board of Directors on June 11, 2026. The repurchase authorization may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time.

More information will be available in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which will be filed with the SEC in accordance with applicable rules.

Outlook

For 2026, management is anticipating the following:

Full year comparable restaurant sales growth in the low single digit range
350 to 370 new restaurant openings, which includes 10 to 15 international partner-operated restaurants. Around 80% of new company-owned restaurants will have a Chipotlane
An estimated underlying full year effective tax rate between 24% and 26% before discrete items

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Below are definitions of the non-GAAP financial measures in this release. The following tables provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented in this release to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Adjusted net income is net income excluding restaurant asset impairment, corporate asset impairment and gains, restructuring expenses, certain legal proceedings, stock-based compensation retention and loss on investments.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.

Adjusted general and administrative expenses are general and administrative expenses excluding expenses related to restructuring, certain legal proceedings and stock-based compensation retention.

The adjusted effective income tax rate is the effective income tax rate adjusted to reflect the after-tax impact of non-GAAP adjustments.

Restaurant level operating margin is equal to the revenues generated by our restaurants less direct restaurant operating costs, which consist of food, beverage and packaging, labor, occupancy and other operating costs, expressed as a percent of total revenue. This performance measure primarily includes the costs that restaurant level managers can directly control and excludes other costs that are essential to conduct our business. Management uses restaurant level operating margin as a measure of restaurant performance. Management believes restaurant level operating margin is useful because it highlights trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures.

We present these non-GAAP measures to facilitate a meaningful evaluation of our operating performance across periods. These adjustments are intended to provide greater transparency of underlying performance and to allow investors to evaluate our business on the same basis as management, which uses these non-GAAP measures in evaluating our performance.

Our adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted general and administrative expenses, adjusted effective income tax rate, and restaurant level operating margin measures may not be comparable to other companies' adjusted measures. These adjustments are not necessarily indicative of what our actual financial performance would have been during the periods presented and should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, our results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further details regarding these adjustments are included in the tables below.
