Q2 revenue up, mixed sales
Denny's Corporation reported Q2 2025 revenue of $117.7 million, up slightly from $115.9 million last year, driven by Keke's expansion while Denny's same-restaurant sales dipped 1.3%. Keke's countered with 4.0% growth, eight new cafes, and three refranchisings, boosting adjusted EBITDA to $18.8 million. Yet margins squeezed from egg costs and openings. Guidance eyes 25-40 openings but 70-90 closures amid macro headwinds.

Q2 FY2025 results
Denny's revenue edged up 1.5% year-over-year to $117.7M in Q2 FY2025 ended June 25, 2025, driven by 7.4% higher company restaurant sales from Keke's expansion, though franchise royalties dipped on softer same-store traffic. Operating income slipped to $8.6M from $9.1M amid elevated restructuring costs, yet restaurant-level margins held steady at 30.7%. Diluted EPS of $0.05 matched basic, with 52,131 weighted shares confirming no material anti-dilution. Cash from operations stayed flat at $14.4M year-to-date, funding $16.4M capex and yielding negative FCF of $2.0M (derived); revolver debt rose to $268.6M with $115.5M availability under covenants met at 3.98x leverage. Acquired five Keke's units for $4.1M, adding $2.2M goodwill. Keke's shines amid Denny's traffic woes. Competitive pressures from quick-service rivals loom large.

Denny's eyes debt refinancing
Denny's Corporation announced on July 25, 2025, that it is evaluating company-wide refinancing transactions to replace substantially all existing indebtedness due August 26, 2026. This move aims to restructure the company's debt obligations ahead of maturity. No specific terms or timelines disclosed yet. Refinancing could ease near-term pressures but hinges on market conditions.

Stockholders approve incentive plan
Denny's Corporation stockholders approved the Amended and Restated 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan at the May 14, 2025, annual meeting, enhancing flexibility for equity awards to attract talent. All seven director nominees sailed through with strong support, while KPMG LLP's auditor ratification passed handily. Say this for shareholders: governance stays steady. The special meeting proposal flopped, rejecting 15% ownership triggers.
