    Total Revenue

    +4% (from $206.2M in Q1 2024 to $214.8M in Q1 2025)

    Total revenue increased modestly due primarily to the acquisition and operation of new restaurants—47 Applebee's and 10 IHOP—which shifted previously franchised outlets to company-operated status, thereby contributing directly to revenue; this partly offsets declines in traditional franchise and rental operations seen in previous periods.

    Net Income

    −53% (from $17,473K in Q1 2024 to $8,197K in Q1 2025)

    Net income dropped sharply as the mix shifted towards company-operated sales, which generally offer lower margins; increased costs and expense pressures are likely contributors, reflecting trends similar to prior periods where higher operating expenses and interest costs adversely affected profitability.

    Company Restaurant Sales

    Massive increase (from $274K in Q1 2024 to $21,573K in Q1 2025)

    Company restaurant sales surged dramatically due to the conversion of acquired restaurants (47 Applebee's and 10 IHOP) from franchise to company-operated, marking a significant operational shift from the previous period’s predominantly franchise model and resulting in a substantial revenue boost.

    Operating Cash Flows

    −47% (from $30,553K in Q1 2024 to $16,133K in Q1 2025)

    Operating cash flows declined significantly despite rising total revenue; this contraction is attributed to lower gross segment profit and changes in working capital management—factors that align with earlier period challenges such as timing of rental and tenant improvement reimbursements.

    Franchise Operations

    Not a direct YoY percentage change provided; value at $166.2M in Q1 2025

    Franchise operations remain a steady revenue backbone with royalties ($76.3M) and advertising ($70.5M) continuing to perform consistently despite shifts in outlet ownership; the maintained strength in these streams contrasts with the operational changes seen in company-operated sales and highlights the enduring role of the franchise model from prior periods.
