The franchise royalties and fees generated by the traditional franchising business were $3,350 during the second quarter of 2026, as compared to $3,128 during the second quarter of 2025. Franchise royalties and fees during the first six months of 2026 were $6,476 as compared to $6,617 during the first six months of 2025. There were 90 Steak n Shake traditional units open on June 30, 2026, as compared to 100 units open on June 30, 2025.

The cost of food at company-operated units during the second quarter of 2026 was $15,203 or 33.3% of net sales, as compared to $14,167 or 30.2% of net sales during the second quarter of 2025. The cost of food at company-operated units during the first six months of 2026 was $27,868 or 32.4% of net sales, as compared to $26,631 or 30.1% of net sales during the first six months of 2025. The increase was primarily because of Steak n Shake materially enhancing the quality of its food ingredients.

The labor costs at company-operated restaurants during the second quarter of 2026 were $13,749 or 30.1% of net sales, as compared to $14,020 or 29.9% of net sales in the second quarter of 2025.

Labor costs expressed as a percentage of net sales remained consistent with 2025.

General and administrative expenses in 2026 remained consistent with 2025.

To better convey the performance of the franchise partnership model, the table below shows the underlying sales, cost of food, labor costs, and other restaurant costs of the franchise partners. We believe the unaudited franchise partner information is useful to readers, as they have a direct effect on Steak n Shake’s profitability.

### Insurance

We view our insurance businesses as possessing two activities: underwriting and investing. Underwriting decisions are the responsibility of the unit managers, whereas investing decisions are the responsibility of our Chairman and CEO, Sardar Biglari. Our business units are operated under separate local management. Biglari Holdings’ insurance operations consist of First Guard, Southern Pioneer, and Biglari Reinsurance.

## Controls and procedures

As filed, 1,748 characters.

#### Evaluation of our Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2026 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting previously identified in Part II, Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

#### Management's Remediation Efforts

Our remediation efforts previously described in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 to address the material weakness mentioned are ongoing as we continue to implement and document policies, procedures, and internal controls. While we believe the steps taken to date and those planned for future implementation will improve the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we have not completed all remediation efforts. The material weakness cannot be considered remediated until applicable controls have operated for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.

#### Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
