About Dominos Pizza INC

Domino’s Pizza, Inc. (ticker: DPZ) is a global quick-service restaurant company focused on pizza and listed in the United States on the Nasdaq market. For French-, Belgian- and Swiss-based investors, Domino’s is best viewed as a branded consumer-staples/consumer-discretionary hybrid with a highly franchised model, where earnings are driven primarily by franchise royalties, supply-chain revenues and related fees rather than by direct company-operated restaurant sales. The company was founded in 1960 in Ypsilanti, Michigan, and adopted the Domino’s Pizza name in 1965. Its headquarters are in Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States. Domino’s business model has two core pillars. First, the franchise restaurant system, which represents the overwhelming majority of the store base. Second, an integrated supply-chain and distribution platform, built around dough manufacturing and logistics, that serves nearly all U.S. franchised stores as well as company-owned locations. This structure supports consistency of product, operational control and purchasing leverage. Domino’s positions itself as the largest pizza company in the world by retail sales, with a particularly strong footprint in delivery and carryout. From a product and service standpoint, the brand is centered on pizza but also sells a broader menu including sides, sandwiches, pasta, desserts and beverages. Digital ordering, mobile apps, delivery tracking and promotional innovation remain central to the customer proposition. Over time, Domino’s has built a reputation for execution in convenience, speed and menu innovation, which helps support competitiveness against other QSR chains and third-party delivery ecosystems. Geographically, Domino’s has a large U.S. base and a meaningful international presence through franchised and master-franchised markets. The company’s store system is heavily franchised, which reduces capital intensity and typically improves the visibility of cash generation. In its recent disclosures, Domino’s highlighted continued global unit expansion and a system in which independent franchise owners account for the vast majority of stores. Recent developments have remained constructive. In 2025, Domino’s reported rising revenues, positive same-store sales momentum in the U.S. and internationally, and net store growth across its system. In early 2026, management reiterated growth ambitions under its “Hungry for MORE” strategy, emphasizing market-share gains, new product launches and an upgraded digital experience. For equity investors, Domino’s stands out as a well-known global brand with a scalable franchise model, strong operating leverage and a durable position in the worldwide pizza category.
