Jack in the Box Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2026 Earnings
Jack in the Box same-store sales of (3.8%)
Diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.65 and Operating EPS of $0.76
SAN DIEGO, Calif. May 13, 2026 – Jack in the Box Inc. (NASDAQ: JACK) announced financial results for the second quarter ended April 12, 2026.
“Second quarter results did not meet expectations, however trends have improved into the third quarter. Jack in the Box is an iconic brand, and I'm eager to dive in with our passionate team and franchisees to further improve operating results. After being on the Board and now as interim CEO, my excitement for the potential of this brand has only grown,” said Mark King, Jack in the Box Interim Chief Executive Officer. “We plan to accelerate our 'JACK on Track' commitments as we strengthen our foundation to support sustainable, long-term growth.”
Jack in the Box Performance
Same-store sales decreased 3.8% in the second quarter, comprised of franchise same-store sales decline of 3.9% and company-owned same-store sales decline of 2.8%. Sales performance resulted primarily from a decline in transactions, partially offset by an increase in price. Systemwide sales for the second quarter decreased 3.8%.
Restaurant-Level Margin(1), a non-GAAP measure, was $15.5 million, or 16.4%, down from $18.7 million, or 19.6%, a year ago driven primarily by commodity cost inflation, and a change in the mix of restaurants, partially offset by increased price.
Franchise-Level Margin(1), a non-GAAP measure, was $60.5 million, or 37.9%, a decrease from $68.3 million, or 40.0%, a year ago. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales driving lower rent revenue and royalties and a decrease in the number of restaurants as part of the 'JACK on Track' closure program, as well as lower lease termination fees.
Jack in the Box restaurant count remained flat in the second quarter, with 9 restaurant openings and 9 restaurant closures.

Total revenues decreased 4.3% to $254.3 million, compared to $265.7 million in the prior year quarter. The lower revenue is primarily the result of same-store sales declines, as well as a lower number of restaurants.
The SG&A expense for the second quarter was $26.4 million, a decrease of $1.8 million compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease was due primarily to the fluctuation of $1.6 million in the cash surrender value of our COLI policies, as well as lower legal costs due to a litigation reversal, partially offset by higher stock compensation due to prior year forfeitures. When excluding net COLI gains, G&A was 2.3% of systemwide sales.
Net earnings from continuing operations was $12.5 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2026. This is compared with net earnings from continuing operations of $20.7 million for the second quarter of the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA(3), a non-GAAP measure, was $51.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared with $61.5 million for the prior year quarter.
The income tax provision for continuing operations reflects an effective tax rate of 27.7% in the second quarter of 2026 as compared to 27.6% in the prior year. The current year effective tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to a reduction of the valuation allowance on cumulative interest deduction limitations and the nondeductible component of share-based compensation. The non-GAAP operating EPS tax rate for the second quarter of 2026 was 31.1%, which differed from the effective tax rate as it is without the impacts of the reduction in the valuation allowance on cumulative interest

deduction limitations and nondeductible component of share-based compensation.
Second quarter diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.65 in 2026, compared to $1.09 in the prior year quarter. Operating Earnings Per Share(2), a non-GAAP measure, was $0.76 in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared with $1.25 in the prior year quarter.
(1) Restaurant-Level Margin and Franchise-Level Margin are non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures are reconciled to earnings (loss) from operations, the most comparable GAAP measure, in the attachment to this release. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measurements to GAAP Results."
