This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Form 10-Q") contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from the statements made herein. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements about our growth, including our long-term growth goals, strategic priorities and initiatives, and liquidity. Forward-looking statements discuss our current expectations, targets and projections relating to our financial position, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as "aim," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "future," "intend," "likely," "outlook," "potential," "preliminary," "project," "projection," "plan," "seek," "target," "may," "could," "would," "will," "should," "can," "can have," the negatives thereof and other similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on certain assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from trends, plans, or expectations set forth in the forward-looking statements, as set forth in this Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. Some of the factors which could cause results to differ materially from our expectations include our ability to develop and open new Shacks on a timely basis, increased costs or shortages or interruptions in the supply and delivery of products, increased labor costs or shortages, inflationary pressures, interest rates, the impact of tariffs, volatility in the financial markets and broader macroeconomic conditions, the impact of Shack closures, the impact of ongoing conflicts and related developments in the Middle East, our management of digital capabilities and expansion into delivery, as well as kiosk, drive-thru and multiple format investments, risks associated with cyberattacks, data security and technology disruptions, the impact of adverse weather conditions, changes in consumer spending patterns, volatility in tourism and consumer travel, our ability to maintain and grow sales at existing Shacks, the performance and profitability of newly opened Shacks and licensed Shacks, risks associated with our international licensing operations, and risks relating to the restaurant industry generally. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q in the context of the risks and uncertainties disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and our other filings with the SEC.

The forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q are made only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. If we do update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be made that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.
