Low Leverage / Strong Balance SheetVery low leverage and steadily rising equity give durable financial flexibility. This supports investment in stores, weathering demand shocks, and opportunistic capex or M&A without forcing debt financing, strengthening long-term solvency and strategic optionality.
Sustained Revenue And Profit RecoveryConsistent post-2020 revenue growth and expanding net income indicate recovering and resilient consumer demand for the company’s dining concepts. This trend supports scale benefits, more predictable margins, and a firmer base for multi-year operational planning.
Improving Free Cash Flow GenerationRising free cash flow over several years enhances the company's ability to fund reinvestment, maintenance capex, and shareholder returns without relying on external financing. Structural FCF improvement supports sustainable operations and discretionary investment.
