Shake Shack's Q1 FY 2025 was its best ever, driven by strong real estate development, improved restaurant margins, and successful menu innovations. Despite a slowdown in same-store sales, Shake Shack's overall revenue grew by 10.5% year-over-year, with significant growth in emerging markets like Houston and Miami. Management expects continued growth with low single-digit same-store sales increases, 80-90 new Shack openings, and revenue projections of $1.4 billion to $1.5 billion for FY 2025.

Shake Shack has fallen ~30% this year as same-shack sales growth has slowed, with consumers finally pushing back against price increases. The company blamed Q1 weakness on the weather. In spite of weaker top-line growth, the company boosted restaurant operating margins despite sharp inflation in beef costs. The company is planning to open 45–50 new company-operated stores this year, up from a prior viewpoint of 45.

SHAK's first-quarter 2025 results are aided by enhanced operations, menu innovation and store openings.
