Randy Garutti, Chief Executive Officer of Shake Shack, stated, “2018 is

reporting another quarter of robust top and bottom-line growth. We
delivered year over year revenue growth of approximately 29%, including
a 1.7% increase in same-Shack sales and grew adjusted EBITDA by over
30%. These results were supported by the continued evolution of our
digital initiatives and the strength of new and existing Shacks as we
executed on our development plans."
Garutti concluded, "Our team is executing the plan to open 32 to 35 new
domestic company-operated Shacks in 2018, our biggest year of openings
to date. Our domestic pipeline is stronger than ever as we build towards
our goal of 200 domestic company-operated Shacks by the end of 2020 and
our long-term target of 450. We expect 16 to 18 net new licensed Shacks
for the year, with a focus on Asia including our first Shack in Hong
Kong which opened on May 1st . Additionally, we are committed to digital
innovation to better connect with our guests, delivering ongoing menu
innovation, and investing in our people and infrastructure to execute on
the significant long-term opportunity ahead."

During the quarter, the Company opened five domestic company-operated
Shacks, including its first Shack in the RINo District in downtown
Denver, as well as additional Shacks in the existing markets of Houston,

First Quarter 2018 Review
Total revenue, which includes Shack sales and licensing revenue,
increased 29.1% to $99.1 million in the first quarter of 2018, from
$76.7 million in the first quarter of 2017. Shack sales for the first
quarter of 2018 were $96.1 million compared to $74.2 million in the same
quarter last year, an increase of $21.9 million, or 29.6%, due primarily
to the opening of 24 new domestic company-operated Shacks, as well as
same-Shack sales growth. Licensing revenue for the first quarter was
$3.0 million, an increase of 16.7% from $2.6 million in the same quarter
last year, due primarily to the opening of new licensed Shacks, and the
strong performance of the Company's newer Shacks in South Korea and
Japan, balanced by continued softness in the Middle East.
Same-Shack sales increased 1.7% for the first quarter of 2018 versus a
2.5% decline in the first quarter last year. The increase in same-Shack
sales, consisted of a combined increase in price and sales mix of 5.9%
offset by a 4.2% decrease in guest traffic. Excluding all transactions
associated with the free burger promotion in the prior year, same-Shack
sales would have been 2.1% in the first quarter with traffic declining
by only 2.2%. The comparable Shack base includes those restaurants open
for 24 full fiscal months or longer. For the first quarter of 2018, the
comparable Shack base included 44 Shacks versus 32 Shacks for the first
quarter of 2017.
Average weekly sales for domestic company-operated Shacks decreased to
$81,000 for the first quarter of 2018 compared to $86,000 for the same
quarter last year, primarily due to the addition of Shacks at lower
volumes to the system.
Operating income increased 15.7% to $6.5 million for the first quarter
of 2018 from $5.6 million in the same quarter last year. Operating
income margins decreased 70 basis points to 6.6%. Shack-level operating
profit, a non-GAAP measure, increased 28.5% to $24.0 million for the
first quarter of 2018 from $18.7 million in the same quarter last year.
As a percentage of Shack sales, Shack-level operating profit margins
decreased 20 basis points to 25.0%. These decreases were primarily due
to increased labor and related expenses resulting from ongoing increases
in minimum wages, prior year costs associated with the free burger
promotion, offset in part by the menu price increase implemented at the
end of the prior year. A reconciliation of Shack-level operating profit
to operating income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial
measure, is set forth in the schedules accompanying this release. See
“Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
General and administrative expenses increased to $11.8 million for the
first quarter of 2018 from $8.5 million in the same quarter last year.
The increase was primarily due to the addition of headcount to support
the Company's ongoing growth, technology development costs related to
its digital products and costs associated with the Company's new Home
Office. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative
expenses increased to 11.9% for the first quarter of 2018 from 11.0% in
the first quarter last year.
Net income attributable to Shake Shack Inc. was $3.5 million, or 3.5% of
total revenue, for the first quarter of 2018, compared to $2.3 million,
or 3.0% of total revenue, for the same period last year. Earnings per
diluted share was $0.13 for the first quarter of 2018 compared to $0.09
for the same period last year.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased 32.8% to $16.2 million.
As a percentage of total revenue, adjusted EBITDA margins increased
approximately 40 basis points to 16.3% compared to 15.9% for the year
ago period. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is set forth in the
schedules accompanying this release. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Adjusted pro forma net income, a non-GAAP measure, increased 54.0% to
$5.7 million, or $0.15 per fully exchanged and diluted share
during the first quarter of 2018, compared to $3.7 million, or $0.10 per
fully exchanged and diluted share during the first quarter of 2017. A
reconciliation of adjusted pro forma net income to net income
attributable to Shake Shack Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measure, is set forth in the schedules accompanying this
release. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”

Shack system-wide sales is an operating measure and consists of
sales from domestic company-operated Shacks, domestic licensed
Shacks and international licensed Shacks. The Company does not
recognize the sales from licensed Shacks as revenue. Of these
amounts, revenue is limited to Shack sales from domestic
company-operated Shacks and licensing revenue based on a
percentage of sales from domestic and international licensed
Shacks, as well as certain up-front fees such as territory fees
and opening fees.

SHAKE SHACK INC.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(UNAUDITED)
To supplement the consolidated financial statements, which are prepared
and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses the following non-GAAP financial
measures: Shack-level operating profit, Shack-level operating profit
margin, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted pro
forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and
diluted share (collectively the "non-GAAP financial measures").
Shack-Level Operating Profit
Shack-level operating profit is defined as Shack sales less Shack-level
operating expenses including food and paper costs, labor and related
expenses, other operating expenses and occupancy and related expenses.
How This Measure Is Useful
When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, Shack-level
operating profit and Shack-level operating profit margin are
supplemental measures of operating performance that the Company believes
are useful measures to evaluate the performance and profitability of its
Shacks. Additionally, Shack-level operating profit and Shack-level
operating profit margin are key metrics used internally by management to
develop internal budgets and forecasts, as well as assess the
performance of its Shacks relative to budget and against prior periods.
It is also used to evaluate employee compensation as it serves as a
metric in certain performance-based employee bonus arrangements. The
Company believes presentation of Shack-level operating profit and
Shack-level operating profit margin provides investors with a
supplemental view of its operating performance that can provide
meaningful insights to the underlying operating performance of the
Shacks, as these measures depict the operating results that are directly
impacted by the Shacks and exclude items that may not be indicative of,
or are unrelated to, the ongoing operations of the Shacks. It may also
assist investors to evaluate the Company's performance relative to peers
of various sizes and maturities and provides greater transparency with
respect to how management evaluates the business, as well as the
financial and operational decision-making.
Limitations of the Usefulness of this Measure
Shack-level operating profit and Shack-level operating profit margin may
differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies due to
different methods of calculation. Presentation of Shack-level operating
profit and Shack-level operating profit margin is not intended to be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the
financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
Shack-level operating profit excludes certain costs, such as general and
administrative expenses and pre-opening costs, which are considered
normal, recurring cash operating expenses and are essential to support
the operation and development of the Company's Shacks. Therefore, this
measure may not provide a complete understanding of the Company's
operating results as a whole and Shack-level operating profit and
Shack-level operating profit margin should be reviewed in conjunction
with the Company's GAAP financial results. A reconciliation of
Shack-level operating profit to operating income, the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measure, is set forth below.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense (net of interest
income), income tax expense and depreciation and amortization expense.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA (as defined above) excluding
equity-based compensation expense, deferred rent expense, losses on the
disposal of property and equipment, as well as certain non-recurring
items that the Company does not believe directly reflect its core
operations and may not be indicative of the Company's recurring business
operations.
How These Measures Are Useful
When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, EBITDA and
adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of operating performance that
the Company believes are useful measures to facilitate comparisons to
historical performance and competitors' operating results. Adjusted
EBITDA is a key metric used internally by management to develop internal
budgets and forecasts and also serves as a metric in its
performance-based equity incentive programs and certain bonus
arrangements. The Company believes presentation of EBITDA and adjusted
EBITDA provides investors with a supplemental view of the Company's
operating performance that facilitates analysis and comparisons of its
ongoing business operations because they exclude items that may not be
indicative of the Company's ongoing operating performance.
Limitations of the Usefulness of These Measures
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may differ from similarly titled measures
used by other companies due to different methods of calculation.
Presentation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the
financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA exclude certain normal recurring expenses.
Therefore, these measures may not provide a complete understanding of
the Company's performance and should be reviewed in conjunction with the
GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, is set forth
below.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(UNAUDITED)
Adjusted Pro Forma Net Income and Adjusted Pro Forma Earnings Per
Fully Exchanged and Diluted Share
Adjusted pro forma net income represents net income attributable to
Shake Shack Inc. assuming the full exchange of all outstanding SSE
Holdings, LLC membership interests ("LLC Interests") for shares of Class
A common stock, adjusted for certain non-recurring items that the
Company doesn't believe directly reflect its core operations and may not
be indicative of recurring business operations. Adjusted pro forma
earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share is calculated by dividing
adjusted pro forma net income by the weighted-average shares of Class A
common stock outstanding, assuming the full exchange of all outstanding
LLC Interests, after giving effect to the dilutive effect of outstanding
equity-based awards.
How These Measures Are Useful
When used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, adjusted pro
forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully exchanged and
diluted share are supplemental measures of operating performance that
the Company believes are useful measures to evaluate performance period
over period and relative to its competitors. By assuming the full
exchange of all outstanding LLC Interests, the Company believes these
measures facilitate comparisons with other companies that have different
organizational and tax structures, as well as comparisons period over
period because it eliminates the effect of any changes in net income
attributable to Shake Shack Inc. driven by increases in its ownership of
SSE Holdings, which are unrelated to the Company's operating
performance, and excludes items that are non-recurring or may not be
indicative of ongoing operating performance.
Limitations of the Usefulness of These Measures
Adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per fully
exchanged and diluted share may differ from similarly titled measures
used by other companies due to different methods of calculation.
Presentation of adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma
earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share should not be considered
alternatives to net income and earnings per share, as determined under
GAAP. While these measures are useful in evaluating the Company's
performance, it does not account for the earnings attributable to the
non-controlling interest holders and therefore does not provide a
complete understanding of the net income attributable to Shake Shack
Inc. Adjusted pro forma net income and adjusted pro forma earnings per
fully exchanged and diluted share should be evaluated in conjunction
with GAAP financial results. A reconciliation of adjusted pro forma net
income to net income attributable to Shake Shack Inc., the most directly
comparable GAAP measure, and the computation of adjusted pro forma
earnings per fully exchanged and diluted share are set forth below.
