Reports Q1 revenue $211.1M, consensus $203.41M. Consolidated comparable sales decreased 3.2%. “We were pleased that revenues, comparable sales and adjusted EBITDA reached or exceeded the higher end of our guided ranges. These accomplishments were driven by another quarter of sequential improvement in our comparable sales trend, positive comparable sales at our Benihana restaurants and strong positive transaction growth of 4.1% at our flagship STK brand. Notably, adjusted EBITDA grew 233% to $25.2 million, significantly exceeding our top-line growth and demonstrating our ability to increase profitability through the execution of our initiatives, tight cost management and our growing economies of scale. We are reiterating our full year guidance for 2025 and remain on track to deliver at least $20 million in acquisition synergies by 2026,” said Emanuel “Manny” Hilario, President and CEO of The ONE Group.
