RED ROBIN GOURMET BURGERS, INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 2026 RESULTS

Englewood, CO – August 12, 2026 – Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. (NASDAQ: RRGB) ("Red Robin" or the "Company"), a casual dining restaurant chain serving an innovative selection of high-quality gourmet burgers in a family-friendly atmosphere, today reported financial results for the fiscal second quarter ended July 12, 2026.

Chief Executive Officer Comments

“Our second quarter delivered meaningful operating and financial improvement as we continue our disciplined execution of our First Choice plan,” said Dave Pace, Red Robin's President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our restaurant teams remained focused on delivering exceptional hospitality and operational excellence, resulting in the strongest second quarter traffic and restaurant-level operating profit margins in three years.”

Mr. Pace continued, “During the quarter, we announced three refranchising agreements, representing a significant capital infusion of $96 million in gross proceeds, which provides us financial flexibility to refinance our debt and support our long-term strategic priorities.”

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Summary:

The following table presents financial results for the fiscal second quarter 2026, compared to results from the same period in 2025 ($ in millions except per share data):

Second Quarter 2026 Commentary

•Comparable restaurant revenue increased 1.3%. This included a 0.2% decrease in guest traffic, and a 1.5% increase in average guest check, representing our best quarterly traffic results since the first quarter of 2023.

•Restaurant level operating profit margin of 14.7%, a 20 basis point improvement from the second quarter of 2025 and the highest second quarter margin since 2022. This improvement was primarily driven by higher average guest check and the benefits of efficiency initiatives offsetting the impact of inflation.

•Adjusted EBITDA of $18.9 million for the second quarter of 2026, driven by increased selling expenses supporting our Big Yummm value platform through our First Choice marketing strategy.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of July 12, 2026, the Company had outstanding borrowings under its credit facility of $167.2 million and liquidity of approximately $47.8 million, including cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity under its credit facility.

Refranchising Update

During the second quarter, the Company announced three separate refranchising agreements with experienced franchise operators for the sale of 116 company-owned restaurants, expected to generate $96.0 million of gross proceeds. The transactions are expected to close during the third quarter, subject to customary closing conditions, and represent continued execution of the Company's First Choice plan, strengthening the balance sheet, reducing debt, and supporting critical investments.

Outlook for Fiscal 2026 and Guidance Policy

The Company is reaffirming its previously issued fiscal 2026 guidance, presented below. This guidance does not contemplate any impacts from the announced refranchising transactions due to uncertainty with the timing of the completion of the transactions. The Company expects to update guidance upon completion of these transactions.

The projections are as of this date and the Company assumes no obligation to update or supplement this information.

•Comparable Restaurant Revenue growth, excluding deferred loyalty revenue, of 0.5% to 1.5%;

•Restaurant level operating profit of approximately 13.0%;

•Adjusted EBITDA of $70 million to $73 million;

•Capital expenditures of $25 million to $30 million.

Providing income (loss) from operations and net income (loss) guidance is potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event-driven transactional and other non-core operating items. As such, we do not present a r
