Papa John's (PZZA) Q2 Revenue Up 4%
Papa John's International (NASDAQ:PZZA), the global pizza delivery and carryout chain, reported its Q2 FY2025 financial results on August 7, 2025. The quarter delivered better-than-expected revenue and adjusted (non-GAAP) earnings, driven by positive sales in North America and strong performance internationally. Revenue (GAAP) reached $529.2 million, beating the predicted $515.7 million, while non-GAAP EPS came in at $0.41, ahead of the $0.34 consensus. Still, Profitability fell from a year ago as cost pressures intensified, especially related to marketing, loyalty programs, and higher expenses at company-owned stores, as reflected in both GAAP and non-GAAP results. The overall quarter showed signs of growth but highlighted ongoing challenges in margins, particularly for company-operated restaurants.
