Comparable Sales Growth

Measures the increase or decrease in sales at existing locations, providing insight into the company's ability to grow sales without expanding its footprint. It reflects customer demand and operational efficiency.
Comps have moved from post‑pandemic peak strength into a soft mid‑2023/2024 trough and are rebounding in 2025–26 as value relaunches, scaled marketing and a new beverage platform regain momentum. Management’s Q1 confirmation and aggressive China development support upside, but don’t ignore near‑term noise: an April promotional lap will pressure Q2, U.S. company‑operated margins and franchisee cash flow remain stressed by inflation, so sustainability depends on disciplined pricing, promotion cadence and franchisee profitability improvements.
