Portillo's Inc. (PTLO) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

Market Penetration for Portillo's Inc. centers on driving higher sales volume and average spend from the existing restaurant base and customer pool. This strategy is critical, especially when same-restaurant sales performance shows mixed results, such as the 0.7% increase in Q2 2025, which was driven by pricing but offset by traffic softness, and the subsequent 0.8% same-restaurant sales decrease in Q3 2025.

To increase the average check size, Portillo's Inc. is planning for an effective price increase in the final quarter. The estimated effective price increase for the fourth quarter of 2025 is in the range of 2.5% to 3%, pending the impact of fourth quarter Portillo's Perks offers. This follows a Q2 2025 average check growth of 2.1%, which was the result of an approximate 3.4% increase in menu prices partially offset by a 1.3% decrease in product mix from guest trade-downs.

Boosting traffic is a key focus, heavily relying on the Portillo's Perks loyalty program, which has grown to over 1.9 million members as of the Q3 2025 update. This program, which targets personalized rewards based on visit frequency, is intended to drive activation and improve guest frequency, especially as Q3 2025 transactions declined by 2.2%.

Operational improvements are being deployed to enhance throughput and counter transaction declines, such as the 1.4% transaction decline experienced in Q2 2025. Portillo's Inc. is rolling out AI-powered drive-thru technology and increasing the adoption of self-service kiosks. The company has a stated goal of cutting 45 seconds from drive-thru times, as every 30-second improvement translates to a percentage point in comparable sales.

Targeted marketing is being used in core markets. In the Chicago area, the Portillo's Perks loyalty program is specifically designed to drive repeat visits. The company is also focusing on expanding reach through other channels, including catering services for existing business and residential customers, alongside affiliate marketing and delivery partners.

Here is a look at key operational and financial metrics from the recent quarters:

Metric	Q2 2025 Value	Q3 2025 Value
Total Revenue	$188.5 million	$181.4 million
Same-Restaurant Sales	0.7% increase	0.8% decrease
Transactions (Same-Restaurant)	1.4% decrease	2.2% decrease
Same Restaurant Average Check	2.1% increase	1.4% increase
Restaurant-Level Adjusted EBITDA Margin	23.6%	20.2%
Food, Beverage, and Packaging Costs (% of Revenue)	33.8%	34.5%

The loyalty program's initial target was 1.5-1.7 million membership signups by midsummer 2025, showing the scale of the push to engage the existing customer base.

Portillo's Inc. (PTLO) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Development

You're looking at how Portillo's Inc. is pushing its existing core menu into new geographic territories, which is the essence of Market Development strategy. This isn't about inventing new sandwiches; it's about putting the Italian Beef and Hot Dogs in front of new customers.

The 2025 plan is aggressive, aiming for expansion across the Sunbelt. You should track the actual openings against the target, as Q1 2025 saw revenue of $176.4 million and Q2 2025 revenue hit $188.5 million, showing the current base performance while new units are being built. The company is pinning future growth on opening a dozen new restaurants in 2025, with plans to open 12 new restaurants in the second half of the year alone. The long-term unit growth target is set between 12% to 15% annually.

Entering the Atlanta, Georgia market is a key focus for this strategy. The first location is slated for Kennesaw in 2025. This specific unit will be approximately 6,250 square-foot and designed to seat more than 125 guests inside, plus an outdoor patio for about 40 additional guests. You can expect the core menu there to feature Chicago-Style Hot Dogs and Famous Italian Beef Sandwiches.

To make this expansion capital-efficient, Portillo's Inc. is accelerating the rollout of its cost-reduced 'Restaurant of the Future' format. This new design is projected to reduce buildout costs to between $5.2 million and $5.5 million, down from the previous range of $6.2 million to $6.5 million, which supports the goal of cutting unit build costs by up to $1.3 million. This format is smaller, averaging 5,500 to 6,000 square-feet with a 47-foot production line, compared to older units that were 11,300 square-feet with a 105-foot production line.

Here's a quick look at the format shift numbers:

Metric	Older Full-Scale Unit (Example)	Restaurant of the Future (Target)
Square Footage	11,300 square-feet	5,500 to 6,000 square-feet
Production Line Length	105 feet	47 feet
Peak Staffing Needs	Up to 34 employees	27 to 32 employees
Indoor/Outdoor Seating	210 seats	140 to 170 seats

The testing of new formats is also happening in Florida. Portillo's Inc. plans to test its first in-line, walk-up restaurant format in Central Florida later in 2025. Separately, the new format planned for The Villages, Florida, will be a smaller, dine-in only concept of approximately 4,3000 square feet with no drive-thru.

For the travel segment, the plan is concrete for 2026. Portillo's Inc. will establish its presence at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) in Terminal B. This will be one of the 8 restaurants management expects to open in fiscal 2026. The net build cost average for these 8 restaurants in 2026 is projected to be less than $5 million each.

You should monitor these key performance indicators as the year progresses:

• Fiscal 2025 total revenue growth guidance: 5% to 7%.
• Fiscal 2025 same-restaurant sales guidance: 1% to 3%.
• Q3 2025 same-restaurant sales expectation: (2.0%) to (2.5%).
• Q1 2025 same-restaurant sales lift: 1.8%.
• Q1 2025 restaurant-level adjusted EBITDA margin: 20.8%.

Finance: draft 2026 capital expenditure forecast by Friday.

Portillo's Inc. (PTLO) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

You're looking at how Portillo's Inc. is evolving its core menu offerings, which is the Product Development quadrant of the Ansoff Matrix. This is where you see the direct impact of testing new items and adjusting pricing on the existing customer base.

The initial foray into the morning daypart, which included testing items like the Maple Sausage and Egg Croissant, has been strategically paused. Management announced the discontinuation of our Chicago breakfast pilot on September 10, 2025, as part of a broader simplification effort. This means the expansion of the Maple Sausage and Egg Croissant and items like the Chocolate Cake Iced Coffee and Hash Brown Bites into additional Chicagoland locations did not proceed as planned in the near term.

To drive up the average check size in existing markets, Portillo's Inc. executed targeted promotions. For instance, during May 2025, the company ran Italian Beef Month, featuring a Buy One, Get One free regular Italian Beef sandwich offer specifically for Portillo's Perks loyalty club members. This focus on driving higher value transactions is reflected in the reported average check increases:

Period	Same-Restaurant Sales Change	Average Check Increase	Menu Price Increase
Q2 2025	+0.7%	+2.1%	Approximate 3.4%
Q3 2025	-0.8%	+1.4%	Approximate 3.2%

The Q2 average check increase of 2.1% was supported by menu price increases of approximately 3.4%, partially offset by a 1.3% decrease in product mix. Similarly, the Q3 average check increase of 1.4% came alongside menu prices rising about 3.2%. This pricing strategy helps offset transaction declines, which were -1.4% in Q2 and -2.2% in Q3.

Regarding plant-based development, Portillo's Inc. already has a plant-based offering on the menu, the Garden Dog, which is a plant-based hot dog made with 100% plant-based protein. While there is no specific 2025 data on a new plant-based Italian Beef alternative, the existing item serves the flexitarian base. The overall strategy for new product introductions is being managed alongside capital deployment, with build cost reduction initiatives tracking between $5.2 million and $5.5 million per new restaurant.

Product development efforts that aim to boost sales outside of peak lunch/dinner hours, such as seasonal dessert specials, are supported by the existing loyalty base, which has grown to over 1.9 million members in the Portillo's Perks program. The company is actively using this base for targeted promotions, like the May BOGO Italian Beef offer.

• Chicago breakfast pilot status: Discontinued as of September 2025.
• Portillo's Perks loyalty club membership: Over 1.9 million members.
• Menu price increases implemented in Q2 2025: Approximately 3.4%.
• Menu price increases implemented in Q3 2025: Approximately 3.2%.
• Existing plant-based offering: Garden Dog (plant-based hot dog).
• Q2 2025 transaction change: -1.4%.
• Q3 2025 transaction change: -2.2%.

Portillo's Inc. (PTLO) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

Launch a dedicated, smaller-format breakfast-only concept in a new Sunbelt market like Texas, leveraging the new menu items.

The existing Texas expansion includes plans for smaller-format "Restaurants of the Future" in locations like Stafford at 6,200 square feet and Grapevine at 5,850 square feet, which are notably smaller than the typical 8,000-square-foot Portillo's locations. Portillo's Inc. is planning to open 12 new restaurants in the second half of fiscal 2025, with a heavy focus on the Sunbelt region, including Texas markets. The company is also planning to introduce its first in-line, walk-up restaurant format later in 2025.

Expand the Nationwide Shipping program into a year-round subscription service for Italian Beef and Cake, creating a new e-commerce revenue stream.

The company has a multi-channel approach that includes shipping food for customers to make themselves. The trailing twelve months (TTM) revenue ending September 28, 2025, was $730.93M.

Develop a line of branded, refrigerated Italian Beef and Hot Dog kits for sale in grocery stores in non-restaurant markets.

For fiscal 2025, Portillo's Inc. expects commodity inflation to be in the range of 3% to 5%. In the second quarter of 2025, the company noted that commodity prices increased by approximately 1.9%. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2025 are projected to range from $97 million to $100 million.

License the Portillo's Perks technology platform to smaller restaurant groups for a new B2B revenue source.

In the second quarter of 2025, the average check size increased by 2.1%. This increase partially offset a 1.4% decrease in transactions during the same period. The Q1 2025 revenue was $176.4 million, showing a 6.4% increase year-over-year.
