BofA Securities analyst Sara Senatore provides an analysis for restaurant sector performance in the first <a href="https://trello.com/c/f3PFGoRF/331021-restaurants-q1-previewbofa">quarter</a>.
Restaurant demand showed mixed results due to weather and a calendar shift, said the analyst. 
Black Box industry data revealed a deceleration in same-store sales growth (SSSG) across all segments from January to February, but March saw improvement, excluding Fine Dining. 
Restaurant spending growth improved in March, with chain spending recovering from -7.5% in February to -3.5%.
Independent restaurants saw a rise in spending, from -2.7% in February to +1.3%. The rebound was attributed to better weather and the impact of the calendar shift in February. 
In the first quarter, prices for soybeans, wheat and soybean oil continued to deflate, though at a slower rate than in the fourth quarter of FY24. 
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44897010/chipotle-to-open-first-mexico-restaurant-by-2026">Chipotle To Open First Mexico Restaurant By 2026</a>
Coffee prices surged, increasing by 96.8% year-over-year, up from 56.8% in the fourth quarter. Beef inflation rose to 5.5%, compared to 1.3% in the previous quarter.
Cheese prices decreased by 1.8%, while dairy inflation slowed to 1.3%. Futures markets predict deflation in several commodities in the second quarter of 2025, but coffee, natural gas and beef are expected to see inflation, noted the analyst.
Restaurants index in the S&amp;P 500 is trading at 1.2x forward EPS, below its 5-year, 10-year and 15-year averages of 1.4x.
Industry data indicates a demand recovery in March after weak months in January and February. While consensus expectations for restaurants remain high, first-quarter results may fall short of estimates. 
Investors are focused on April trends and the potential impact of tariffs on consumer sentiment, traffic and COGS inflation.

The operator of Domino's Pizza restaurants in China said its revenue rose 41% last year, as it announced plans to accelerate its new store openings in 2025
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Key Takeaways:</h4>
<ul>
<li>DPC Dash reported its first-ever annual profit in 2024, as its revenue rose 41% and it passed the 1,000-store milestone</li>
<li>The operator of Domino's Pizza restaurants in China plans to open 300 new restaurants this year, with a strong focus on ‘new growth markets' outside Beijing and Shanghai</li>
</ul>
2024 was a year filled with milestones for&nbsp;DPC Dash Ltd.&nbsp;(1405.HK), operator of the Domino's Pizza chain in China. Topping the list was the company's first-ever annual profit. It also became&nbsp;Domino's&nbsp;(DPZ.US) undisputed global leader by claiming all of the top 30 spots for the brand's best-performing stores worldwide in their first month.
The company was also one of only a handful of restaurants operators in China to record same-store sales growth throughout the year. And last but not least, it also passed a more symbolic milestone with the opening of its 1,000th&nbsp;store, making it one of only three pizza chains in China to reach that mark.
Despite that list of achievements, DPC isn't immune to the broader economic slowdown that's currently dampening demand for a wide range of industries as Chinese consumers grow more cautious.
Beijing is hoping to change things with a wide range of stimulus measures, including a growing number aimed at boosting consumer spending. At the annual meeting of the country's legislature earlier last month, it gave cause for optimism that the situation would stabilize by keeping its annual GDP growth target at about 5% for 2025, the same as last year.
DPC appears to be placing its bets in the same direction, announcing in its&nbsp;<a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2025/0327/2025032700696.pdf">latest annual results</a>&nbsp;plans to accelerate its new store openings this year as it dives deeper into China's many underserved smaller cities. After opening 240 stores last year to cross the 1,000-store milestone, with 1,008 at the end of 2024, DPC said it is aiming to open another 300 new stores this year.
The company also announced a capital spending budget of 570 million yuan ($78.6 million) for that ambitious expansion. It requires that relatively small amount because many of its stores are earning back their investment at breakneck speed, as diners in these smaller markets flock to the stores to try out offerings often considered relatively exotic. Payback periods for the 80 stores DPC opened in 18 new cities between Christmas 2023 and the end of 2024 averaged within 12 months, far shorter than the global average of three years or more.
"We will continue our store opening strategy of ‘going deeper' in existing markets and ‘go broader' into new markets prudently to build up our national footprint and enhance Domino's Pizza brand," the company said in its 2024 annual results announcement.
DPC's partnership with Domino's dates back to 2010, and the company became Domino's master franchisee for the Mainland China, Hong Kong and Macao markets in 2017. In a major milestone in that relationship, DPC announced last October that U.S.-based Domino's was cutting its stake in their partnership by about half to 6.2%, reflecting DPC's growing ability to stand on its own, including attracting outside investors.
Those investors have gobbled up DPC stock since its March 2023 Hong Kong listing that raised more than HK$600 million ($77 million). The stock has more than doubled since then, including a rise of about 30% so far this year. At that level, its shares now trade at a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 42, more than double the 20 for&nbsp;Yum China&nbsp;(YUMC.US; 9987.HK), operator of the rival Pizza Hut chain in China, and even further ahead of the 16 for local hotpot favorite&nbsp;Haidilao&nbsp;(6862.HK).
<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Moving beyond the big cities</h4>
DPC began its life by focusing on Beijing and Shanghai, two of China's largest and most affluent cities that not only boast higher consumption power but were also more open to foreign tastes. But more recently the company has found gold in smaller markets, which have become the focus of its rapid expansion. Large lines often form outside its new stores in such cities, leading the company to take the unusual step of sometimes temporarily halting its trademark delivery service until business ultimately subsidies to more normal levels.
The company previously held 28 of the top 30 spots for Domino's in terms of best-performing stores globally in their first 30 days and subsequently took all 40 top spots. Among those, the latest entrant was a new store in the Northeastern city of Shenyang that generated 11.1 million yuan ($1.53 million) in its first 30 days.
DPC Dash entered 10 new markets last year, expanding its footprint to 39 cities across China at the end of 2024. Its markets outside Beijing and Shanghai, which the company calls its "new growth markets" are taking up a growing slice of its business, accounting for 62% of its revenue last year. It continued that footprint expansion this year, entering six new cities since the start of 2025.
The company's revenue last year rose 41.4% to 4.31 billion yuan as it opened new stores and same-store sales rose. But the contribution from new growth markets grew by a far faster 77%, as the company opened the big majority of its 240 new stores for the year in markets outside Beijing and Shanghai. Around 90% of the new stores are located in second- and third-tier cities.
Despite weakening consumer demand, DPC Dash was able to maintain positive same-store sales growth throughout the year, with the figure up 2.5% for the year, modest compared with the previous period that was higher partly because it included new stores that usually record high sales in their first year but eventually decline after 18 months. DPC Dash's figure already beat nearly all its rivals, which mostly posted declines, including Pizza Hut's 5% same-store sales decline for the year.
The company has built up a loyal fan base to strengthen its position by relying on repeat customers. It said its loyalty program rose strongly to 24.5 million members by the end of last year from 14.6 million a year earlier. As that number grew, loyalty members accounted for 64.5% of its revenue last year, up from 59.2% in 2023.
Also worth noting is the company's positive momentum with its store-level operating margin, which rose to 14.5% last year from 13.8% a year earlier as it gained economies of scale. That helped it to report its first-ever full-year profit of 55.2 million yuan in 2024, reversing a 26.6-million-yuan loss in 2023.&nbsp;

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Here's How Much $100 Invested In Domino's Pizza 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

Last week, J.P. Morgan analyst John Ivankoe hosted Bloomin&#8217; Brands Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLMN#NASDAQ">BLMN</a>), CAVA Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAVA#NYSE">CAVA</a>), Brinker International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EAT#NYSE">EAT</a>), and Sweetgreen Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SG#NYSE">SG</a>) at the J.P. Morgan Las Vegas forum.
The analyst noted that the key takeaway from all four companies was the focus on doing &#8220;fewer things better&#8221; and consistently reinvesting in customer and employee experiences.
According to the analyst, stock volatility has created opportunities, with the current 10-year yield of 4.3% helping global QSR valuations, easing fears of a 5-6% yield.
The analyst recommended adding fresh investments in Dutch Bros Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BROS#NYSE">BROS</a>), Starbucks Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>), and CAVA.
While McDonald&#8217;s Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>) and Restaurant Brands International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QSR#NYSE">QSR</a>) are fairly valued, slower U.S. data and international growth may present better buying opportunities, per the analyst.
Yum! Brands Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YUM#NYSE">YUM</a>) exceeded expectations, benefiting from tech-fee recapture. Domino&#8217;s Pizza Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DPZ#NASDAQ">DPZ</a>) is fairly valued due to high expectations. It remains uncertain if the Middle East conflict&#8217;s impact will drive sustained sales growth or just a leveling out.

The analyst upgraded the shares of CAVA to Overweight. CAVA has significant potential for expansion in the U.S., with impressive free cash flow generation and a strong pipeline of operational and brand initiatives to drive sales and profits.
The analyst reiterated a Neutral rating on Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>) and EAT due to high valuations and peak comps, but remain cautiously optimistic and would consider adding on volatility.
Overweight-rated SG and Krispy Kreme Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DNUT#NASDAQ">DNUT</a>) face sales and profit challenges, with SG offering near-term potential through seasonal menus and loyalty programs.
Following YUM&#8217;s Taco Bell analyst day on March 4, which highlighted the &#8220;Byte by YUM!&#8221; platform and improving KFC international trends, the analyst conducted a full model review and a valuation reset.
Projections include Taco Bell U.S. growing to 9,000 units by 2030 and Taco Bell International expanding to 2,000 units. The analyst assumes KFC international (excluding China) will increase to 22,300 units, while KFC China will reach 19,400.
Compared to previous expectations, only BROS, DPZ, and Taco Bell (YUM) are performing ahead, while high-growth brands like CAVA, SG, Chili&#8217;s, and SBUX are on track.
Larger QSR brands like MCD, BK (QSR), KFC/PH (YUM), and fast-casual chains such as CMG and Shake Shack Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHAK#NYSE">SHAK</a>) are underperforming. Casual dining brands like Darden Restaurants Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DRI#NYSE">DRI</a>) (Olive Garden), Texas Roadhouse Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXRH#NASDAQ">TXRH</a>) (Roadhouse), and BLMN (Outback) are also tracking lower.
The U.S. restaurant labor market remains stable, with open positions at 6.2% of total employment, close to the 20-year average of 4.4%. The quits rate stands at 3.8%, near the historical average of 4.0%.
Consumer confidence has declined, with a focus on the &#8220;expectations&#8221; component, as cautious consumers become more selective in discretionary spending.
Large QSR brands, like MCD and DPZ, report weaker performance among low-income consumers. In contrast, high-growth brands like CAVA are seeing strong growth in the lowest income quartiles, suggesting a shift toward QSR trade-ups and growing brand awareness.
According to the analyst, sourcing talent and retention remain key to building strong brands and scaling operations, mainly during the rapid adoption of in/out-of-store tech.
Total industry supply growth has remained surprisingly resilient, up 12% from third-quarter FY18 to third-quarter FY24 for a CAGR of ~2%, opined the analyst.
So much attention is placed on future AI driven opportunities, but the reality is 40% of the industry sales are from the top 500 chains with a very large addressable market of another 60% are considered to be independents, the analyst noted.
Tariffs are less of an issue for this sector than other industries but related inflation could impact several daily consumer staple commodities including avocados, seasonal produce/fruit and coffee, said the analyst.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Short-Term Signals Flash Bearish</h2>
Domino&#8217;s stock has been under pressure, down 8.15% over the past month and 8.62% in the last five days. Dominos stock, at $433.55, below key short-term moving averages, signaling ongoing selling pressure.
Specifically, Domino&#8217;s sits below its eight-day, 20-day and 50-day simple moving averages (SMA), suggesting that short-term momentum remains bearish. The stock's 20-day SMA is $471.68 and the 8-day SMA is $469.67, both higher than the current share price &#8211; typically seen as a bearish sign.
Notably, Domino&#8217;s stock also seems to be struggling for long-term support. It is also trading below its 50-day SMA ($449.77) and its 200-day simple moving average ($450.31), indicating underlying strength.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Mixed Momentum: Bullish Or Bearish?</h2>
Technical momentum indicators offer conflicting signals for the company&#8217;s stock. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) stands at 0.78, flashing a bullish signal.
Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 32.39 is in neutral territory, but heading towards the oversold territory below 30.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Fundamentals Vs. Market Uncertainty</h2>
Beyond the charts, Domino's announced higher sales, a dividend increase and a<a href="https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/dominos-pizza-chain-announces-chair-080430583.html"> new Chair</a>, Ian Bull. While the fundamentals remain solid, analysts warn that maintaining profit growth under the company's new five-year framework will be key to sustaining investor confidence.
For now, Domino&#8217;s stock remains at a technical crossroads—the golden cross hints at potential upside, but short-term weakness suggests investors may want to wait for a confirmed breakout before diving in.
