Dutch Bros Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Achieves 32% Revenue Growth Year-Over-Year

Delivers 8.3% Company-Operated and 5.8% Systemwide Same Shop Sales Growth

Raises 2026 Guidance on Total Revenues, System Same Shop Sales Growth, and Adjusted EBITDA

TEMPE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dutch Bros Inc. (NYSE: BROS; “Dutch Bros” or the “Company”), one of the fastest-growing brands in the U.S. quick service beverage industry, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Second Quarter 2026 Highlights

  • Opened 48 new shops, 44 of which were company-operated.
  • Total revenues grew 32.5% to $550.9 million as compared to $415.8 million in the same period of 2025.
  • Company-operated same shop sales1 increased 8.3% and company-operated same shop transactions increased 3.4% relative to the same period of 2025. Systemwide same shop sales1 increased 5.8% and systemwide same shop transactions increased 1.7% relative to the same period in 2025.
  • Net income was $51.6 million as compared to $38.4 million in the same period of 2025.
  • Adjusted EBITDA2 grew 27.8% to $113.7 million as compared to $89.0 million in the same period of 2025.

Christine Barone, Chief Executive Officer and President of Dutch Bros, said, “Our second quarter performance reflects the strength of the Dutch Bros brand, powered by our differentiated people-led culture and our compelling value proposition that continues to resonate with customers. The success of our strategy was evident in the second quarter as we delivered our thirteenth consecutive quarter of positive same shop sales growth and our eighth consecutive quarter of same shop transaction growth. We also maintained exceptionally strong development momentum, while AUVs climbed to record levels. This performance is the result of years of foundational investments across the business, giving us tremendous confidence in our ability to continue growing Dutch Bros for the long-term.”

Josh Guenser, Chief Financial Officer of Dutch Bros, concluded, “Based on the performance so far this year and the recent acquisition from one of our Phoenix franchisees, we are increasing our full-year guidance on Total Revenues, Systemwide Same Shop Sales Growth and Adjusted EBITDA. We enter the second half of the year from a position of strength, with a focused plan, strong visibility into our growth initiatives, and a clear path to turning the significant whitespace ahead of us into durable growth.”

2026 Guidance3

  • Total revenues are now projected to be between approximately $2.1 billion and $2.13 billion.
  • Same shop sales1 growth is now estimated to be in the range of 5% to 6%.
  • Adjusted EBITDA4 is now estimated to be between $385 million and $390 million.
  • Capital expenditures are now estimated to be between $350 million and $370 million.

The item below remains unchanged.

  • Total system shop openings are estimated to be at least 185.

 

1

 

Same shop sales is defined in the section “Select Financial Metrics”.

2

 

This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

3

 

Excludes any impact from the Salad and Go™ transaction announced on August 5, 2026.

4

 

We have not reconciled guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measure because we do not provide guidance for the various reconciling items. We are unable to provide guidance for these reconciling items because we cannot determine their probable significance, as certain items are outside of our control and cannot be reasonably predicted due to the fact that these items could vary significantly from period to period. Accordingly, reconciliation to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measure is not available without unreasonable effort.

Christine Barone, Chief Executive Officer and President, and Joshua Guenser, Chief Financial Officer, will host a conference call and webcast today at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) to discuss financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

In 2026, AUVs are determined based on the net sales for any trailing twelve-month period for systemwide and company-operated shops, and same shop sales represent the percentage change in year-over-year sales, for the comparable shop base, that have been open at least 15 complete months as of the first day of the quarterly reporting period. Prior to 2026, AUVs were determined based on shops that had been open a minimum of 15 months, and same shop base was defined as shops open for 15 complete months or longer as of the first day of the reporting period. Prior period numbers have not been adjusted to conform to the new definition as the changes did not have a material impact. AUVs are calculated by dividing the systemwide and company-operated shops net sales by the total number of systemwide and company-operated shops, respectively. Management uses these metrics as an indicator of shop growth, expectations of mature locations, and future expansion strategy. The number of shops included in the systemwide and company-operated comparable bases for the respective periods are presented in the following table.

Systemwide sales and systemwide same shop sales are operating measures that include sales at company-operated shops and sales at franchised shops during the comparable periods presented. Franchise sales represent sales at all franchise shops and are revenues to our franchisees. We do not record franchise sales as revenues; however, our royalty revenues and advertising fund contributions are calculated based on a percentage of franchise sales. As these metrics include sales reported to us by our non-consolidated franchise partners, these metrics should be considered as a supplement to, not a substitute for, our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Management uses these metrics as indicators of our system’s overall financial health, growth and future expansion prospects.

Company-operated and franchise shops operating weeks are calculated based on the number of operating days for the shop base and dividing by 7. Our shop base is defined as shops opened as of the end date of the periods presented. The operating weeks calculations reflect re-acquired franchises. Management uses these metrics as indicators of our system’s overall financial health, growth and future expansion prospects.

4

 

Dutch Rewards is our digitally-based rewards program available exclusively through the Dutch Rewards app. Management uses this metric as an indicator of customer loyalty adoption of our Dutch Rewards app and future promotional plans.

Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this press release contains references to the non-GAAP financial measures below. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about our operating performance, enable comparison of financial trends and results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating our business and measuring our performance.

Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on one or more of the following items, as well as the related income tax effects where applicable. Income tax effects have been calculated based on the combined total non-GAAP adjustments using our total effective tax rate. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated.
