This strategic expansion marks a significant milestone for DPC Dash as it brings its delectable offerings to new customers in mainland China<\/span> cities of Tangshan, Xi’an<\/span>, Xiamen<\/span>, Fuzhou<\/span>, Changsha<\/span>, Nantong, Yangzhou and Hefei<\/span>. All of the stores opened between December 23rd and 24th<\/span>.<\/p>\n On January 25, 2024<\/span>, the Company announced that it had set new Domino’s global system record for sales in the first 30 days as it opened 10 new stores in eight new cities during December 2023<\/span>. The recent expansion by DPC Dash marks a significant milestone for the company as it continues to stretch its footprint in China<\/span>. The 10 new stores, all of which rank among the top-15 globally for first 30-day sales, are located in the mainland cities of Tangshan, Xi’an<\/span>, Xiamen<\/span>, Fuzhou<\/span>, Changsha<\/span>, Nantong, Yangzhou, and Hefei<\/span>.<\/p>\n On February 1, 2024<\/span>, the Company announced the opening of its\u00a0800th<\/sup> store in China<\/span>. The momentous occasion took place in the city of Jinan<\/span>, in Shandong<\/span> province, on January 31, 2024<\/span>, marking another significant milestone in the company’s remarkable growth.<\/p>\n As of March 22, 2024<\/span>, the Company has a total of 823 stores in 29 cities in China<\/span>. Between January 1, 2024<\/span> and March 22, 2024<\/span>, the Company had a net opening of 55 new stores, with 35 stores under construction, and 88 stores signed or approved, accounting for over 74% of the total targeted store opening plan for the full year.<\/p>\n As of March 22, 2024<\/span>, DPC Dash held the top 19 positions in the global records of Domino’s Pizza for the first 30-day sales of new stores.<\/p>\n Key Definitions<\/b><\/p>\n Non-IFRS Measures<\/b><\/p>\n To supplement the Group’s consolidated financial statements that are presented in accordance with the\u00a0IFRS, the Group also uses Adjusted Net Profit\/(Loss) (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure), Store-level EBITDA (non-IFRS measure) and Store-level EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure) as additional financial measures, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, IFRS.<\/p>\n “Store-level EBITDA” is defined as store-level operating profit for the year and adding back depreciation of plant and equipment and amortization of intangible assets in store-level. “Store-level EBITDA margin” is calculated by dividing Store-level EBITDA by revenue for the same year. “Adjusted Net Profit\/(Loss)” is defined as profit\/(loss) for the year and adding back fair value change of financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, share-based compensation and listing expenses. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as Adjusted Net Profit\/(Loss) for the year and adding back depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation of right-of-use assets), income tax expense and interest income and expenses, net. “Adjusted EBITDA margin” is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA by revenue for the same year.<\/p>\n The Group believes that these non-IFRS measures facilitate comparisons of operating performance from period to period and company to company. The Group believes that these measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Group’s results of operations in the same manner as they help the Group’s management. However, the Group’s presentation of Adjusted Net Profit\/(Loss) (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA (non-IFRS measure), Adjusted EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure), Store-level EBITDA (non-IFRS measure) and Store-level EBITDA margin (non-IFRS measure) may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. The use of such non-IFRS measures has limitations as an analytical tool, and shareholders and potential investors of the Company should not consider them in isolation from, or as substitute for analysis of, the Group’s results of operations or financial condition as reported under IFRS.<\/p>\n Conference Call Information<\/b><\/p>\n The Company will host a conference call today, Wednesday, March 27, 2024<\/span>, at 7:00 pm<\/span> Hong Kong Time (or Wednesday, March 27, 2024<\/span>, at 7:00 am Eastern Time<\/span>) to discuss the financial results.<\/p>\n Participants may access the call by dialing the following numbers:<\/p>\n United States Toll Free:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n +1-888-317-6003<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n International:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n +1-412-317-6061<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Mainland China Toll Free:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n 400-120-6115<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Hong Kong Toll Free:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n 800-963-976<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Hong Kong \u2013 Unassisted:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n 852-5808-1995<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n Singapore Toll Free:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n 800-120-5863<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n
