Karen Holthouse's questions to Texas Roadhouse Inc (TXRH) leadership • Q2 2025
Question
Karen Holthouse, on for Jon Tower at Citigroup, asked if Texas Roadhouse would consider using third-party delivery on a unit-by-unit basis if managing partners requested it, or if there were prohibitive limitations.
Answer
CEO Gerry Morgan reiterated the company's resistance to third-party delivery for the core Texas Roadhouse brand, with only one exception in a dense urban market. He stated the current focus is on perfecting the in-restaurant and proprietary to-go channels. While he remains in discussion with operators, the company is 'holding the line' on its current policy.
