Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Growth And Unit EconomicsUnique brand and daytime operating model driving best-in-class unit economics, solid margin profile, 10%+ annual unit growth and LSD% SSS in a more normal demand environment.
Marketing And TechnologyThe company is increasingly using its database to market to specific customer cohorts, leveraging tech to reduce cook times, ticket times, and improve order accuracy and satisfaction.
Strategic Focus And GuidanceAn increase of 2024 adjusted EBITDA guidance to the high end shows the company's focus on profitable growth.
Bears Say
Guidance And ForecastManagement attributes the narrowed same store sales guidance to a weak industry backdrop, soft weekday brunch segment, and intensifying third-party delivery headwinds.
Industry ChallengesDemand impacted by a soft July, the late quarter hurricane, and the increasing level of value offers in the industry, which FWRG has not participated in and is unlikely to do so.
Sales PerformanceSales softness is attributed to the breakfast category's discretionary nature and weaker third-party delivery sales.
