Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Legal Proceedings

There are various claims and pending legal actions against or indirectly involving us, incidental to and arising out of the ordinary course of the business. In the opinion of management, based upon information currently available, the ultimate liability with respect to these proceedings and claims will not materially affect the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Purchase Obligations

We have commitments related to company and franchised restaurants under purchase contracts for food and non-food products. Many of these agreements do not obligate us to purchase any specific volumes and include provisions that would allow us to cancel such agreements with appropriate notice. Our future purchase obligation payments due by period for both company and franchised restaurants at December 25, 2024 consist of the following:


	(In thousands)
Less than 1 year	$	195,923
1-2 years	—
3-4 years	—
5 years and thereafter	—
Total	$	195,923

For agreements with cancellation provisions, the amounts included in the table above represent our estimate of purchase obligations during the periods presented if we were to cancel these contracts with appropriate notice.
