Daniel Silverstein: Thank you.
Operator: Thank you. And one moment please for our next question. Our next question will come from Krisztina Katai of Deutsche Bank. Your line is open.
Krisztina Katai: Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking the question. I wanted to ask on private label. So that 10% unit share and the gross profit contribution you shared with us is a great result. Maybe can you talk about where you are in the process of that rollout? Any particular areas where you’re seeing significant strength? I think you called out 16% unit growth. So, my question is, is that broad-based? Or are there any particular areas that are driving that performance?
Darren Rebelez: Yeah. Krisztina, we’re still continuing to evolve the private label portfolio. We’ve got another 40 items that will go into the assortment by the end of the year. And we’re — at the same time, we’re optimizing products. So, as some products start to atrophy a little bit, we’ll remove them from the assortment and we bring in new innovation. And so that’s a constant process that our private label team is operating with. With respect to where we saw some strength, certainly bottled water was probably our strongest, up about 70% in sales. And now our bottled water is about 50% of that bottled water category, our private labels. So, really strong performance there. Obviously, that’s a little bit seasonal in the summertime, but we’re seeing great growth year-over-year in that.
Another category that’s been really strong is chips. In chips, it’s usually a pretty tough one because it’s a very competitive category. But we had some new innovation with some new flavors that were seasonal just for this summer and saw north of 70% same-store sales in that category as well. And now that category is about 25% penetrated. And again, with the competitive landscape in that category, that’s a big statement. So, we like where we are there. And we’ve seen some broader base strength, but those are the really kind of the standouts that we’ve seen so far.
Krisztina Katai: That’s great. And then just my follow-up. I was going to ask around pizza and, in particular, the 12% new guests that you mentioned, I think, following the thin crust introduction. Have you seen any competitive response to you taking pizza share? Or do you anticipate any changes in the promotional landscape or anything around pricing?
Darren Rebelez: Not at this point. We — it’s a little bit hard for me to say whether we’ve taken share from any of the major competitors. For the most part, pizza is our primary competitor in most of our markets, if we have one. In a lot of cases, in our more rural markets, there may not be a competitor, or if there is one, that’s more of a mom and pop. So really difficult to say, but I couldn’t tell you that we’ve seen an uptick in promotional activity from competitors since we’ve launched the thin crust. I think the other pizza players have struggled a little bit from a velocity standpoint. So, I think they’re starting to get a little more promotional anyway, but I haven’t seen any change as a result of what we’ve done.
Operator: Thank you. One moment please for our next question. Our next question will come from John Lawrence of Benchmark. Your line is open.
John Lawrence: Good morning, guys.
Darren Rebelez: Good morning.
John Lawrence: Would you discuss a little bit about the new markets? How quickly does some of this innovation, some of the new products, does that help get those maybe the class of new stores in the last couple of years up and running and ramping a little faster? And what have you noticed with product innovations and maybe the app in some of those new markets?
