DALLAS, TX (StLouisRestaurantReview) Wingstop Inc. (NASDAQ: WING) today released preliminary unit development and unaudited sales results for the fiscal first quarter of 2021.  The company also announced that it would host a conference call and webcast to discuss its fiscal first-quarter 2021 financial results on Wednesday, April 28, 2021.

Wingstop Highlights for the fiscal first quarter 2021 as compared to the fiscal first quarter 2020:

  • 41 net new openings resulting in 1,579 Wingstop restaurants system-wide, an increase of 11.7%
  • Domestic same-store sales increased 20.7%

“Our growth strategy continues to fuel exceptionally strong results for the brand.  During the first quarter, we achieved same-store sales growth of 20.7% or 30.6% on a 2-year basis.  This underscores the sequential strength in our comp from a 30.4% 2-year in Q4 2020 and the staying power of our growth drivers,” stated Charlie Morrison, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Wingstop.  “We opened 41 net new restaurants, a record-high for the first quarter.  This is as a result of achieving a key milestone of over $1.5 million AUVs, translating into best-in-class unit economics and our largest development pipeline to-date.  I’m confident we are well on our way to becoming a top 10 global restaurant brand.”

Conference Call and Webcast Details for Fiscal First Quarter 2021 Results

Wingstop will host a conference call and webcast to discuss its fiscal first-quarter 2021 financial results on Wednesday, April 28, 2021, at 10:00 AM EST.

The following definitions apply to these terms as used in this release:

Same-store sales reflect the change in year-over-year sales for the comparable restaurant base.  We define the comparable restaurant base to include those restaurants open for at least 52 full weeks.  This measure highlights the performance of existing restaurants while excluding the impact of new restaurant openings and closures.

System-wide sales represent net sales for all of our company-owned and franchised restaurants, as reported by franchisees.
