Domino's has only one-in-three pizza delivery share but significantly lower share on aggregators, implying multi-year volume growth for DoorDash and Uber Eats as Domino's closes the gap.
Competitors on aggregators are using unsustainable pricing, which Domino's can match profitably due to scale and purchasing power, likely leading to further share gains.

… menu. In addition, customers prefer the taste of Bread Bites over twists, and love that they can get 32 bread bites for $6.99 as part of our mix and match deal. Another part of our renowned value barbell strategy is tapping into the aggregator marketplace for pizza delivery. Q3 marked the first quarter where we were fully rolled out on DoorDash, and we remain encouraged about its long-term potential for our business. We continue to expect our sales on DoorDash to grow as awareness and marketing increases and believe this will be a meaningful contributor to our U.S. comps in Q4 and as we move into 2026. I wanted to quickly touch on the progress we continue to make on the upgrades to our e-commerce platforms. I'm excited to announce that we are now fully live with our website and mobile web experiences, where our goal prior to full launch was to see our conversion equal to or better than our old platforms. The new site does just that. It's much quicker, in particular during the checkout process, which provides a better user experience. The apps come next, and our goal is to have them rolled out by the end of the year. Next is something our entire system is buzzing about. We are …
Great. Thank you very much. Just a question looking outside the U.S. As we close 2025 here, just wondering if you have any initial thoughts that you can share in your confidence in re-accelerating that international unit growth. I think in 24 and now in 25, you're talking about maybe 615 units net, which is just sub 4% growth. I know that's below your long-term 975 net annually. And I think DPE is seemingly the greatest headwind. So any early color, as we assume new unit growth visibility, probably better than comp. So assume there's some at least idea as to where that directionally could go next year versus this year. Thank you.
Yeah, and I'll just probably add a couple of points to that. I think Russell just mentioned China. I think India's got a different fiscal calendar, but it's about 250 stores is what they're expecting for their fiscal calendar. But if you think about what's really happened in 2025, we really have been pressured by DPE store closures, which are around 200 stores that have closed in the first quarter. And I think what we're saying is, from what we've understood from DPE to this point, most of the store closures should be behind us, assuming that we don't have any further deceleration in same-store sales trends. But I think on a going-forward basis, we need to make sure that we have good visibility to the potential paybacks from new store openings to really understand what the flex on that is going to be for DPE. And they're working on it. But I think overall, we feel that everything outside of DPE is tracking the plans. And so both in 25 as well as in 26, and that continues to be our expectation.

Thanks. Russell, I was just hoping maybe you can make a comment about the overall delivery market and what you're seeing, not just from a consumer standpoint, but competitively. It looks like from where we're sitting, there is a lot of maybe desperate discounting promotional activity on the third-party sites right now. Effectively, it's the industry's version of stuffing the channel late in the quarter. You saw a lot of this activity, and we're seeing these deals pop up on our app. Could you speak to the broader ecosystem of delivery right now and what's happening there and how you see this playing out? Is this sustainable? What does it mean for you and maybe the pizza category? Thanks.
We get excited about delivery here at Domino's Pizza. I'd say, you know, one addition to that is, you know, this is why I'm so bullish about our long-term prospects on aggregators. You know, we deliver like one in every three pizzas out there. We're not at that share yet on aggregators. And I think a lot of that is because, well, one, we just got on DoorDash, but we're still growing. And there is pricing that in some places for the competition is probably not sustainable. And over time, that's what's going to enable us to grow to our fair share. And that's why I think aggregators are a multi-year tailwind for us.
