WINMARK CORPORATION ANNOUNCES

FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

 

Minneapolis, MN (April 18, 2017)   Winmark Corporation (Nasdaq: WINA) announced today net income for the quarter ended April 1, 2017 of $5,416,400 (or $1.22 per share diluted) compared to net income of $4,562,900 (or $1.06 per share diluted) in the first quarter of 2016.  

 

Earnings growth during the first quarter was driven by an increase in customer activity within the Company’s lease portfolio and moderate royalty growth in the franchise business.  Brett D.

Winmark Corporation creates, supports and finances business.  At April 1, 2017, there were 1,184 franchises in operation under the brands Plato's Closet®, Once Upon A Child®, Play It Again Sports®, Style Encore® and Music Go Round®.  An additional 70 retail franchises have been awarded but are not open.  In addition, at April 1, 2017, the Company had a lease portfolio of $41.7 million.
