Insights
Revenue grew solidly, but margins and earnings weakened even as the dividend increased.
Texas Roadhouse delivered 9.4% full-year revenue growth to $5,878,075,000, helped by higher restaurant and other sales. However, restaurant operating costs rose faster, with food and beverage, labor, rent and other operating expenses pressuring profitability.
Income from operations declined 8.1% for the year to $474,740,000, and net income fell 6.5% to $405,554,000. Quarterly restaurant margin percentage dropped from 17.0% to 13.9%, reflecting higher cost intensity despite comparable sales growth.
The board’s approval of a higher quarterly dividend of $0.75 per share, following cash dividends of $2.72 per share in 2025, signals a continued commitment to returning cash even as earnings face cost headwinds. Future filings may clarify whether margin pressure eases as the expanded restaurant base matures.

| ● | Diluted earnings per share decreased 26.1% primarily driven by lower restaurant margin dollars and higher depreciation and amortization expenses partially offset by lower income tax expense and the impact of share repurchases.

| ● | Nine company restaurants and one franchise restaurant were opened; and |

| ● | Restaurant margin dollars decreased 1.1% to $905.7 million from $915.8 million in the prior year primarily due to higher food and beverage costs and lapping the benefit of the additional week in the prior year partially offset by higher sales.

| ● | Diluted earnings per share decreased 5.8% primarily driven by lower restaurant margin dollars and higher depreciation and amortization expenses partially offset by lower income tax expense and the impact of share repurchases.

| ● | 28 company restaurants and four franchise restaurants were opened; and |
| ● | Capital allocation spend included capital expenditures of $388.0 million, franchise acquisitions of $107.5 million, dividends of $180.3 million, and repurchases of common stock of $150.0 million. |
Jerry Morgan, Chief Executive Officer of Texas Roadhouse, Inc., commented, “We had a strong finish to the year thanks to the dedication of our operators who continued to drive traffic growth. While commodity inflation continues to pressure restaurant margin, we remain committed to preserving our value proposition and maintaining a relentless focus on operational excellence.”
Morgan added, “During 2025, we significantly increased our company store footprint through a record number of franchise acquisitions and new store development. With three growing brands and the Legendary efforts of Roadie Nation, which now stands over 100,000 Roadies strong, we are confident in our ability to continue to drive long-term shareholder value.”
Franchise Acquisitions
On the first day of our 2026 fiscal year, the Company completed the acquisitions of five domestic franchise restaurants for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $72 million.
2026 Outlook
Comparable restaurant sales at company restaurants for the first seven weeks of the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year increased 8.2% compared to 2025. In addition, the Company plans to implement a menu price increase of approximately 1.9% in early April.
Management updated the following expectations for 2026:
| ● | An effective income tax rate of 14% to 15%. |
Management reiterated the following expectations for 2026:
| ● | Positive comparable restaurant sales growth, including the benefit of menu pricing actions; |
| ● | Store week growth of 5% to 6%, including the benefit from franchise acquisitions; |
| ● | Commodity inflation of approximately 7%; |
| ● | Wage and other labor inflation of 3% to 4%; and |
| ● | Total capital expenditures of approximately $400 million. |
Cash Dividend Payment
On February 18, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the payment of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.75 per share of common stock. This payment will be distributed on March 31, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 17, 2026.
Non-GAAP Measures
The Company prepares the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Within the press release, the Company makes reference to restaurant margin (in dollars, as a percentage of restaurant and other sales, and per store week). Restaurant margin represents restaurant and other sales less restaurant-level operating costs, including food and beverage costs, labor, rent, and other operating costs. Restaurant margin should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative, to income from operations. This non-GAAP measure is not indicative of overall company performance and profitability in that this measure does not accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders due to the nature of the costs excluded. Restaurant margin is widely regarded as a useful metric by which to evaluate core restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis. In calculating restaurant margin, the Company excludes certain non-restaurant-level costs that support operations, but do not have a direct impact on restaurant-level operational efficiency and performance, including pre-opening and general and administrative expenses. The Company excludes pre-opening expenses as they occur at irregular intervals and would impact comparability to prior period results. The Company excludes depreciation and amortization expenses, substantially all of which relate to restaurant-level assets, as they represent a non-cash charge for the investment in restaurants. The Company excludes impairment and closure expenses as it believes this provides a clearer perspective of ongoing operating performance and a more useful comparison to prior period results. Restaurant margin as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in the industry. A reconciliation of income from operations to restaurant margin is included in the accompanying financial tables.
