Wingstop grants CEO $25M equity
Wingstop's board approved a $25 million one-time equity retention package for CEO Michael Skipworth on September 11, 2025, split evenly between 45,505 performance-based RSUs tied to system-wide sales in fiscal 2029-2030 and 45,505 service-based RSUs vesting over five years. This locks in leadership while aligning incentives with shareholders. Vesting accelerates on qualifying events like change in control. Retention demands long-term commitment.
10-Q
Q2 FY2025 results
Wingstop's Q2 revenue climbed 12.0% year-over-year to $174.3 million, fueled by 13.9% system-wide sales growth to $1.3 billion and 129 net new restaurants, though domestic same-store sales dipped 1.9%. Operating income rose 9.7% to $45.2 million, with gross margins on company-owned sales improving slightly to 24.8% from 24.1%, while diluted EPS held steady at $0.96 amid higher interest from the $500 million debt issuance. Year-to-date, revenue surged 14.6% to $345.4 million and net income more than doubled to $119.0 million, boosted by a $92.5 million gain on the LPH investment sale (net of $4.7 million credit loss provision), reconciling to $4.21 per diluted share on 28.3 million shares. Cash dipped to $227.9 million after $120.8 million in repurchases, yet operating cash flow of $31.9 million minus $22.4 million capex yielded $9.5 million free cash flow (derived); total debt stands at $1.2 billion with full $300 million revolver availability and leverage under 5.0x. Acquired three restaurants for $9.2 million in Q1, adding $4.5 million goodwill. Non-GAAP metrics like adjusted EBITDA of $59.2 million are defined and reconciled in the 10-Q. Still, softening same-store trends signal intensifying competition.
