Our strategy combines the strength of our leadership in Daytime Dining with substantial whitespace for restaurant growth and an increasingly powerful cash flow model. We see a clear path to more than 2,200 restaurants across the continental U.S. while, beginning next year, we expect our robust cash flow to self-fund organic growth and maintenance capital expenditures and accelerate free cash flow generation. That combination gives us the opportunity to extend our leadership in a category we have helped define, continue investing in growth and create meaningful long-term shareholder value,\u201d said Chris Tomasso, CEO and President of First Watch.<\/em>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <em>\u201cOur annual growth targets through 2028 strike an optimized balance between new unit growth and free cash flow. We are on track to open 62 systemwide restaurants in 2026 and approximately 55 in 2027, retaining flexibility on annual openings in the following years. This measured shift builds on our strong foundation, supports positive and improving free cash flow, reinforces our balance sheet, and gives us greater flexibility in how we deploy capital. Importantly, our confidence in our long-term growth opportunity and earnings power remains unchanged and, towards the end, we recently raised our outlook for annual Adjusted EBITDA growth to greater than 15% for 2027 and 2028,\u201d he concluded.<\/em>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Annual Growth Targets Through 2028<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li style=\"text-align:justify\">Same Restaurant Sales growth of 2% to 4%<sup>(1)<\/sup><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align:justify\">Total Revenue growth of 10% to 13%<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align:justify\">G&amp;A Expense growth lower than Total Revenue growth<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align:justify\">Adjusted EBITDA growth of 15%+<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align:justify\">Positive Free Cash Flow beginning in 2027 and increasing each year<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p align=\"justify\">___________________<br \/><em>(1) Includes positive underlying same-restaurant traffic, net of planned sales transfer from new restaurant growth. <\/em><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Definitions<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The following definitions apply to these terms as used in this release:<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Same-restaurant sales growth<\/strong>: the percentage change in year-over-year restaurant sales (excluding gift card breakage) for the comparable restaurant base, which we define as the number of company-owned First Watch branded restaurants open for 18 months or longer as of the beginning of the fiscal year (<em>\u201c<\/em>Comparable Restaurant Base<em>\u201d<\/em>). For the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September\u00a027, 2026 and September\u00a028, 2025, there were 454 restaurants and 381 restaurants, respectively, in our Comparable Restaurant Base. Measuring our same-restaurant sales growth allows management to evaluate the performance of our existing restaurant base. We believe this measure is useful for investors to provide a consistent comparison of restaurant sales results and trends across periods within our core, established restaurant base, unaffected by results of store openings, closings, and other transitional changes.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Same-restaurant traffic growth<\/strong>: the percentage change in year-over-year traffic counts using the Comparable Restaurant Base. Measuring our same-restaurant traffic growth allows management to evaluate the performance of our existing restaurant base. We believe this measure is useful for investors because same-restaurant traffic provides an indicator as to the development of our brand and the effectiveness of our marketing strategy.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Adjusted EBITDA<\/strong>: a non-GAAP measure, represents Net income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income taxes and items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing core operating performance.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>Free Cash Flow<\/strong>: a non-GAAP measure, represents Cash Flow from Operations minus capital expenditures.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About First Watch<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">First Watch is the leading Daytime Dining concept serving made-to-order breakfast, brunch and lunch using the freshest ingredients available.
