Shake Shack Announces Third Quarter 2016 Financial Results finance.yahoo.com
Randy Garutti, CEO of Shake Shack, stated “Shake Shack's Q3 performance demonstrates the continued strength and opportunity of our brand. We delivered another quarter of solid results, with 40% growth in total revenue and a 28.8% Shack-level operating profit margin. We also hit some important milestones this quarter, including our 100th worldwide Shack opening and our first $1 million sales day in our domestic company-operated Shacks.
Garutti continued, "We're executing our multi-format growth strategy with great Shacks in our current markets as well as new markets across the country. We remain encouraged by the great locations we are seeing. Based upon our updated development plans, we now expect to open 19 Shacks this year and 21 to 22 next year, representing growth of 43% and 35% in 2016 and 2017, respectively. With the recent test launch of our first ever Shack App, we are meeting our guests where they are, and are beginning to lay the groundwork to connect the digital experience with the community gathering place of the Shack. This is just our first step, but we are excited about the endless possibilities the App brings to Shake Shack and our guests." |
