Wingstop (WING) reported second quarter earnings that exceeded expectations on both revenue and profit. Wingstop CEO Michael Skipworth joins Market Domination alongside executive editor Brian Sozzi to discuss the buffalo wing chain’s success.
Skipworth emphasizes that the second quarter results demonstrate Wingstop operates “in a category of one.” The company saw significant growth in same-store sales and transactions during the quarter, with franchise owners opening more restaurants. Skipworth describes it as “a record quarter for the brand.”
“We have so much momentum in the brand right now,” he tells Yahoo Finance, highlighting the company’s continued expansion, ability to resonate with consumers, and strong returns for franchise owners. Skipworth believes the fast food chain can open “over 10,000 restaurants globally.”
Despite general consumer weakness, Skipworth notes that customer frequency is up, with growth across all income cohorts. He states, “I think we’re just in a completely different category than other brands right now.”
