We are excited about the progress we have made toward our vision to change the way the world thinks about and eats fast food and look forward to many more milestones as we begin our journey to the next 1,000 restaurants," said Founder, Chairman, and Co-CEO Steve Ells.
Second quarter 2010 results
Revenue for the quarter was $466.8 million, up 20.1% from the prior year period. The growth in revenue was the result of new restaurants not in the comparable base and an 8.7% increase in comparable restaurant sales. Comparable restaurant sales growth was primarily driven by increased traffic in the quarter.
During the quarter Chipotle opened 25 new restaurants, bringing the total restaurant count to 1,001.
Restaurant level operating margin was 26.9% in the quarter, an increase of 90 basis points over the prior year period. The increase was primarily driven by the impact of comparable restaurant sales growth and a decline in food costs.
G&A costs were 6.5% of revenue, down 10 basis points from the prior year period. The improvement as a percent of revenue was attributed to the impact of comparable restaurant sales growth partially offset by increased stock based compensation expense.
Net income for the second quarter of 2010 was $46.5 million, or $1.46 per diluted share, compared to $35.4 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2009.

Our high performing managers are creating a culture of empowerment in their restaurants, enabling our energetic and ambitious crew to treat each customer to the best dining experience possible. And our strong comps are a clear indication that our restaurant teams' efforts are paying off. As we look beyond our 1,000th restaurant, we have a deeper bench of future leaders than ever before which keeps us well positioned for future growth," commented Co-CEO Monty Moran.

About Chipotle
Steve Ells, Founder, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, started Chipotle with the idea that food served fast did not have to be a typical fast food experience. Today, Chipotle continues to offer a focused menu of burritos, tacos, burrito bowls (a burrito without the tortilla) and salads made from fresh, high-quality raw ingredients, prepared using classic cooking methods and served in a distinctive atmosphere. Through our vision of Food With Integrity, Chipotle is seeking better food not only from using fresh ingredients, but ingredients that are sustainably grown and naturally raised with respect for the animals, the land, and the farmers who produce the food. Chipotle opened its first restaurant in 1993 and currently operates more than 1000 restaurants.
