2016 - ANOTHER STRONG YEAR

WING STOP Forward-Looking Statements FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact or relating to present facts or current conditions included in this presentation are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements give Wingstop Inc.'s (the "Company") current expectations and projections relating to its financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as "anticipates," "believes," "continues," "estimates," "expects," "goal," "objectives" "intends," "may," "opportunity," "plans," "potential," "near-term," "long-term," "projections," "assumptions,” “projects," "guidance," "forecasts," "outlook," "target," "trends," "should," "could," "would," "will" and similar expressions and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based on assumptions that the Company has made in light of its industry experience and perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors it believes are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read and consider this presentation, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect its actual operating and financial performance and cause its performance to differ materially from the performance anticipated in the forward-looking statements. The Company believes these factors include, but are not limited to, those described under the sections "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in its Form 10-K filed with the SEC. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of these assumptions prove incorrect, the Company's actual operating and financial performance may vary in material respects from the performance projected in these forward- looking statements. Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this presentation speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause the Company's actual operating and financial performance to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all of them. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A "non-GAAP financial measure" is defined as a numerical measure of a company's financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flow of the company. The Company has provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net income in the Appendix to this presentation. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes that such financial measure, when viewed with the Company's results of operations in accordance with GAAP and the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), provides additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about unusual items that the Company does not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Adjusted EBITDA is used by investors as a supplemental measure to evaluate the overall operating performance of companies in the Company's industry, you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of results as reported under GAAP. Our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. For additional information about our non-GAAP financial measures, see our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. JOBS Act The Company is an "emerging growth company" within the meaning of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act. As a result, the Company will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. 1
