- Net income fell to $100.5 million vs. $120.4 million in the year-ago quarter ($3.24 per share). According to management, the decline is due to higher income tax provisions and lower income from operations;
- Domino's CEO Russell Weiner indicated that the company intends to raise the price of its popular offer' mix-and-match deal' from $5.99 to $6.99 effective October 17. The previous increase in the price of the deals in the supply proved beneficial to the company. Previously, the company had offered a 20% discount on such orders, as a gesture of 'inflationary solidarity' with consumers, which drove sales. The company maintained its previous forecast for rising food costs in the range of 13% to 15% annually. However, management reported a 1.8% decline in sales at branches outside the United States, after excluding the impact of foreign exchange;
- The company reported the sale of 114 company-owned stores in Utah and Arizona to franchisees for $41.1 million. Domino's expects first profits from the transaction in the fourth quarter of the year and ultimately plans to reduce the cost of maintaining the facilities;
