In this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries, is collectively referred to as “Chipotle,” “we,” “us,” or “our.”

We develop and operate restaurants that serve a relevant menu of burritos, burrito bowls, quesadillas, tacos, and salads, made using fresh, high-quality ingredients. As of June 30, 2025, we operated 3,839 restaurants including 3,750 Chipotle restaurants within the United States and 89 international Chipotle restaurants. Additionally, we had five international licensed restaurants. We manage our U.S. operations based on 11 regions and aggregate our operations to one reportable segment. Additional details on the nature of our business and our reportable operating segment are included in Note 14. "Segment Reporting".

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for annual reports. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, footnotes and management’s discussion and analysis included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
