Randy Garutti, Chief Executive Officer of Shake Shack, stated, “We are pleased to have continued our strong momentum through the first quarter. During the quarter we opened three new Shacks as we entered Baltimore, Maryland in the Inner Harbor, and deepened our roots in the Boston market with Shacks opening on Newbury Street in the heart of the historic Back Bay neighborhood and in Dedham, MA at Legacy Place. Our strong track record of opening successful Shacks in both the United States and internationally continues to demonstrate the global appeal of Shake Shack and validates our belief in our significant whitespace opportunity. We remain on track to execute our plan to open at least ten new domestic company-operated Shacks and five new international licensed Shacks in 2015 and have an exciting pipeline building for 2016 and beyond, including our recently announced expansion to California and Japan. As we expand globally, we are committed to connecting to our communities, advancing our culture as we grow, further capitalizing on the shift we see in consumer eating preferences and continuing to deliver on our mission to ‘Stand for Something Good’.”

First Quarter 2015 Review
Total revenue, which includes Shack sales and licensing revenue, increased 56.3% to $37.8 million in the first quarter of 2015, from $24.2 million for the first quarter of 2014. Shack sales for the first quarter of 2015 were $36.0 million, an increase of 59.2% versus the same quarter last year due primarily to the opening of new Shacks, as well as same-Shack sales growth. Licensing revenue for the first quarter was $1.8 million, an increase of 13.2% from $1.6 million in the same quarter last year, due primarily to the opening of new international licensed Shacks.
Same-Shack sales increased 11.7% for the first quarter of 2015, on a calendar basis, versus 3.9% growth in the first quarter last year. The comparable Shack base includes those restaurants open for 24 months or longer. For the first quarter of 2015, the comparable Shack base included 13 Shacks versus 9 Shacks for the first quarter of 2014.
Average weekly sales for domestic company-operated Shacks were $89,000 for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $83,000 for the same quarter last year, a 7.2% increase, primarily due to increased menu prices, favorable shifts in sales mix from menu innovation and strong performance from several Shacks opened in the latter half of fiscal 2014, including Las Vegas and Chicago.
Shack-level operating profit, a non-GAAP measure, increased 78.3% to $9.3 million for the first quarter of 2015 from $5.2 million in the same quarter last year. As a percentage of Shack sales, Shack-level operating profit margins increased 270 basis points to 25.7% as we experienced higher flow through from leveraging labor and other operating expenses on increased Shack sales.
General and administrative expenses increased to $18.4 million for the first quarter of 2015 from $3.4 million in the same quarter last year. This increase was primarily due to $12.8 million of non-recurring compensation expenses incurred in connection with the vesting of equity awards upon consummation of our IPO and $0.6 million of incremental IPO-related expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased 94.0% to $7.0 million. As a percent of total revenue, adjusted EBITDA margins increased approximately 360 basis points to 18.5% compared to 14.9% for the year ago period.
Net loss was $(12.7) million, or $(1.06) per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2015, compared to net income of $1.1 million, or $0.04 per diluted unit, for the same period last year. The net loss for the first quarter of 2015 includes $13.2 million of after-tax expenses incurred in connection with the Company's initial public offering.
Adjusted pro forma net income, a non-GAAP measure, increased 102.2% to $1.3 million, or $0.04 per fully exchanged and diluted share during the first quarter of 2015, compared to $0.6 million, or $0.02 per diluted share during the first quarter of 2014. A reconciliation between net income and adjusted pro forma net income is included in the accompanying financial data.
New Shack Growth
As of April 1, 2015, the Company had 66 Shacks system-wide, of which 34 were domestic company-operated, five were domestic licensed and 27 were international licensed.
Subsequent to the quarter, we opened our third Shack in New Jersey at the Bridgewater Commons on May 1st and we also opened our first Shack in Austin, Texas, located on South Lamar Street, neighboring the original Alamo Drafthouse on May 5, 2015.
2015 Outlook
For the fiscal year ending December 30, 2015, the Company provides the following guidance:
▪ | Total revenue to be between $161 million and $165 million. |
▪ | Same-Shack sales growth in the low to mid single digits. |
▪ | At least 10 new domestic company-operated Shacks to be opened throughout the year. |
▪ | At least five international licensed Shacks to be opened under the Company's current license agreements in the U.K. and Middle East. |

Definitions
The following definitions apply to these terms as used in this release:
"Shack sales" is defined as the aggregate sales of food and beverages in domestic company-operated Shacks and excludes sales from licensed Shacks.
"Same-Shack sales" means, for any reporting period, sales for the comparable Shack base, which we define as the number of domestic company-operated Shacks open for 24 months or longer. For fiscal 2015, same-Shack sales growth is calculated on a calendar basis as the Company believes it more accurately reflects the performance of its business as it eliminates the impact of the extra operating week in fiscal 2014 and compares consistent calendar weeks.
"Shack-level operating profit margin" is defined as Shack sales less operating expenses, including food and paper costs, labor and related expenses, other operating expenses and occupancy and related expenses as a percentage of Shack sales.
“EBITDA” means, for any reporting period, net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense and provision for income taxes, adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that the Company does not consider in their evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include, among other things, non-cash deferred rent charges and pre-opening costs, as well as certain non-recurring charges.
Explanatory Note
The historical financial information contained in this press release relate to periods that ended both prior to and after the completion of the initial public offering ("IPO") of 5,750,000 shares of Class A common stock of Shake Shack Inc. (the "Company") at a price of $21.00 per share. The Company's Class A common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "SHAK" on January 30, 2015, and the IPO closed on February 4, 2015. In connection with the IPO and certain organizational transactions, the Company became a holding company whose sole material asset consists of its equity interest in SSE Holdings. As the sole managing member of SSE Holdings, the Company has the sole voting interest in and controls the operations of SSE Holdings. As a result, the Company consolidates the financial results of SSE Holdings and its subsidiaries. The unaudited consolidated financial information and related discussion of financial condition and results of operations contained in this press release relating to periods prior to the IPO pertain to SSE Holdings, LLC ("SSE Holdings"), our predecessor for financial reporting purposes.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(UNAUDITED)
(dollar amounts in thousands)
To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Shack-level operating profit, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share (collectively the "non-GAAP financial measures"). The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures used by the Company are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different methods of calculation.
Shack-Level Operating Profit
Shack-level operating profit and Shack-level operating profit margin are not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Shack-level operating profit is a supplemental measure of operating performance and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies. Shack-level operating profit margin has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Management believes that Shack-level operating profit and Shack-level operating profit margin are important measures to evaluate the performance and profitability of each Shack, individually and in the aggregate. The Company uses Shack-level operating profit margin information to benchmark their performance versus their competitors. A reconciliation of Shack-level operating profit to operating income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is set forth below.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) or cash flow from operations, as determined by GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used by management to measure the operating performance of their business, excluding specifically identified items that management believes do not directly reflect their core operations. A reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is set forth below.

Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income and Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings Per Fully Exchanged and Diluted Share
Adjusted pro forma net income represents net income attributable to Shake Shack Inc. assuming the full exchange of all outstanding SSE Holdings, LLC membership interests ("LLC Interests") for shares of Class A common stock, adjusted for certain non-recurring items that management believes do not directly reflect their core operations. Adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share is calculated by dividing adjusted pro forma net income by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding, assuming the full exchange of all outstanding LLC Interests, after giving effect to the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options.
Adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share are supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to net income and earnings per share, as determined by GAAP. Management believes adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share supplement GAAP measures and enables them to more effectively evaluate its performance period-over-period and relative to competitors. A reconciliation of adjusted pro forma net income to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and the computation of adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share are set forth below.
