Reported metrics

Guidance from management

Management expects to have a full lineup of reconfigured packaged items on store shelves by Labor Day, which they believe will align better with consumer preferences and drive sales improvements.

What management said

Andrew, good question. We use the data from the store level sales that we had at the time, which indicated that large-sized pieces and truffles were the most popularly demanded items and followed suit to build boxes around that.

That's correct. We didn't have the same level of survey when we initially started. And in fact, the 1,000 survey receipts we received included a number from our franchisees themselves as we service -- we surveyed both existing customers, prospective customers and added franchisees to that as we wanted to get feedback from them untarnished or separate from that of guests.

What analysts pressed on

Analysts expressed concerns regarding the effectiveness of the new product assortment strategy and the potential for ongoing losses. There were questions about the timeline for achieving positive cash flow and the impact of recent franchise development on overall growth.
