Winmark Corporation Announces Second Quarter Results

MINNEAPOLIS--()--Winmark Corporation (Nasdaq: WINA) announced today net income for the quarter ended June 29, 2024 of $10,431,400 or $2.85 per share diluted compared to net income of $10,368,800 or $2.85 per share diluted in 2023. For the six months ended June 29, 2024, net income was $19,250,400 or $5.26 per share diluted compared to net income of $19,311,500 or $5.34 per share diluted for the same period last year. Results during the quarter were impacted by the Company’s decision in May 2021 to run-off its leasing portfolio.

Year-to-date growth in royalties resulted from higher overall store count and, to a lesser extent, increases in per unit performance,” commented Brett D. Heffes, Chair and Chief Executive Officer.
