Truist analyst Jake Bartlett raised the firm’s price target on Darden to $190 from $186 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares.

Darden has noted some ‘check management’ and some softness from higher income consumers, but the management also believes that the consumer “continues to be resilient”, the firm added.
