Results for the three months ended June 30, 2026:
Total revenue in the second quarter of 2026 was $3.3 billion, an increase of 9.3% compared to the second quarter of 2025. The increase was driven by new restaurant openings and, to a lesser extent, comparable restaurant sales. Comparable restaurant sales increased 2.2%, consisting of a 1.2% increase in average check and a 1.0% increase in transactions. Digital sales represented 38.3% of total food and beverage revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase from 35.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
During the second quarter we opened 100 company-owned restaurants, of which 80 included a Chipotlane, and one international partner-operated restaurant. Chipotlanes continue to perform well and are helping enhance guest access and convenience, as well as increase new restaurant sales, margins and returns.
Food, beverage and packaging costs in the second quarter of 2026 were 29.7% of total revenue, an increase from 28.9% in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was driven by inflation, primarily from beef and freight, and higher protein and produce usage. These increases were partially offset by the benefit of menu price increases and lower avocado and dairy costs.
Labor costs in the second quarter of 2026 were 25.0% of total revenue, an increase from 24.7% in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher employee compensation, including wage inflation and performance-based bonuses, and additional restaurant labor supporting operational execution, including hospitality initiatives. These headwinds were partially offset by the benefit from menu price increases.
General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2026 were $190.5 million, compared to $172.2 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was driven by legal reserves, performance bonuses, wages, and restructuring costs, partially offset by lower stock-based compensation. Adjusted general and administrative expenses1 for the second quarter of 2026 were $176.2 million, compared to $159.9 million in the second quarter of 2025.
The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of 2026 was 24.3%, a decrease from 24.5% in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in U.S. federal income tax credits, partially offset by lower tax benefits from stock option exercises and equity vesting.
Net income for the second quarter of 2026 was $403.5 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, compared to $436.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025. Adjusted net income1 for the second quarter of 2026 was $418.9 million, or $0.33 per adjusted diluted share, compared to $450.4 million, or $0.33 per adjusted diluted share, in the second quarter of 2025.
During the second quarter of 2026 we repurchased $630.7 million of stock at an average price per share of $32.55. As of June 30, 2026, $1.7 billion remained available under share repurchase authorizations from our Board of Directors, including an additional $1.3 billion in authorizations approved by our Board of Directors on June 11, 2026. The repurchase authorization may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time.
More information will be available in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which will be filed with the SEC in accordance with applicable rules.
