Business, in the company's words. Opening of Item 1 of the 10-K received Feb 27, 2026; the document on sec.gov.

In 2025, the Company’s total revenues increased 4%, including or excluding the impact of F/X, mainly attributable to 3% of net new unit contribution and 1% same-store sales growth. Operating profit increased 11%, including or excluding the impact of F/X, primarily driven by the increase in Total revenues, favorable commodity prices and efficiency improvement from streamlined operations, partially offset by increased delivery cost associated with higher delivery sales mix in the current year and value-for-money offerings.

Limitations [top]

Grade boundary. Percentile 48.2 is 8.2 points from the nearest band edge; sampling error is 2.9 points.

Peer group. Sector assignment from four-digit SIC codes, hand-tuned and published. The grade under three alternative peer policies is tabled above.

Size. Within a sector the letter tracks size. Among graded filers in the smallest asset band, 72% grade E and 0% grade A; in the largest, 13% grade E and 21% grade A. Universe as of Oct 9, 2026.

Failure model. filings 2012-01-01 to 2019-12-31 fit, filings 2020-01-01 to 2025-12-31 test; status post hoc pending confirmation. pre-registered on 2026 filings once their 12-month outcome windows close; supported if the paired per-quintile gain over the pooled model has a lower bound above 0.05.

Input validity. Revenue or total assets at or below $100,000 sets the degenerate-inputs flag. An input whose denominator is at or below $100,000 is left not computable rather than ranked.

Returns. No input on this page has a post-2015 confidence interval on returns that excludes zero. The grade ranks reported financial condition and is not a return forecast.
