Its store count reached 978 during the third quarter of 2024, with plans to surpass 1,000 by mid-November.

DPC Dash has secured 28 of the top 30 positions for first 30-day sales among Domino's global network of over 21,000 stores. This achievement highlights the strength of the Domino's brand and DPC Dash's operational expertise. Furthermore, its total loyalty program membership has surged to 21.7 million, reflecting increased customer engagement through tailored rewards and enhanced experiences.

Domino's Pizza LLC, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Domino's Pizza, has recently agreed to allocate 10,000,000 of DPC Dash's shares, or 7.66% of DPC Dash's total issued share capital as of October 17, 2024, to a group of institutional investors through off-market block trades. Following this share transfer, Domino's Pizza LLC retains 8,101,019 shares accounting for 6.21% of DPC Dash's total issued share capital. Domino's Pizza LLC has committed to a lock-up period of 90 days from the closing date of the share sale for its remaining shares. The enduring relationship between DPC Dash and DPZ remains robust, rooted in their long-term Master Franchise Agreement (MFA) signed in June 2017. This relationship is expected to continue to be a cornerstone of DPC Dash's growth strategy.

"We are thrilled with the performance and growth of the DPC Dash business," said Russell Weiner, Domino's Pizza Chief Executive Officer. "Our equity investment has been and continues to be a strong investment for Domino's, but more importantly, it provided DPC Dash with growth capital when needed and also helped DPC Dash's management team stay focused on driving their business, which they have done incredibly well. With DPC Dash's successful IPO, its nearing the 1,000-store milestone, and its profitability achievements in the first half of 2024, we feel it is the appropriate time to begin partially exiting our equity investment in the business. DPC Dash and the China market continue to be critical to Domino's growth and we look forward to continuing to work with them for years to come."

Aileen Wang, Chief Executive Officer of DPC Dash added, "We are excited about our sustained strong performance and the significant milestones we've reached. Domino's Pizza has been an exceptional organization to work with, and we deeply appreciate its investment, which has laid the groundwork for our growth journey. We view this liquidity event positively, as it will enhance our trading liquidity and attract world-class, long-term investors, thus diversifying our institutional shareholder base. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Domino's Pizza as we further develop this remarkable brand."
