Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 ("PSLRA"). All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements discuss our current expectations and projections relating to our financial position, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business, and are based on currently available operating, financial and competitive information which are subject to various risks and uncertainties, so you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as "aim," "anticipate," "believe," "commit," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "outlook," "potential," "project," "projection," "plan," "intend," "seek," "may," "could," "would," "will," "should," "can," "can have," "likely," the negatives thereof and other similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include regional, national or global political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory conditions and the following: •the potential future impact of COVID-19 (including any variant) on our results of operations, supply chain or liquidity; •risks related to or arising from our organizational structure; •risks of food-borne illness and food safety and other health concerns about our food; •risks associated with our reliance on certain information technology systems and potential failures or interruptions; •privacy and cyber security risks related to our digital ordering and payment platforms for our delivery business; •the impact of competition, including from our competitors in the restaurant industry or our own restaurants; •the impact of labor shortages, the increasingly competitive labor market and our ability to attract and retain the best talent and qualified employees; •the impact of federal, state or local government regulations relating to privacy, data protection, advertising and consumer protection, building and zoning requirements, costs or ability to open new restaurants, or sale of food and alcoholic beverage control regulations; •our ability to achieve our growth strategy, such as the availability of suitable new restaurant sites in existing and new markets; •risks relating to changes in economic conditions, including a possible recession and resulting changes in consumer preferences; •inflation of all commodity prices, including increases in food and other operating costs, tariffs and import taxes, and supply shortages; and •other risks identified in our filings with theSecurities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC '). All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. You should evaluate all forward-looking statements made in this presentation in the context of the risks and uncertainties disclosed in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year endedDecember 26, 2021 , filed with theSEC onMarch 10, 2022 , and subsequent filings with theSEC .
