TD Securities Maintains Hold on Jack In The Box, Lowers Price Target to $31

Goldman Sachs analyst Christine Cho on Wednesday provided a preview of the first quarter for U.S. restaurants.
What Happened: U.S. restaurant companies faced a tough start to 2025, with weaker consumer sentiment, weather impacts and tariff uncertainties affecting performance, except for a few like Brinker International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EAT#NYSE">EAT</a>).
Although first-quarter softness was expected, risks remain on the downside due to macroeconomic and policy uncertainties, as reflected in Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44996394/chipotle-battles-slumping-sales-but-honey-chicken-boosts-hope-say-analysts">same-store sales growth miss and lowered guidance</a>.
These factors are likely to dominate investor attention during the earnings season, noted the analyst.
Despite no major changes in consumer intent for restaurant spending, recent adjustments to estimates reflect lower macroeconomic forecasts from GS economists, including slower GDP growth and a higher recession probability.
Restaurant sales trends are closely tied to consumer spending, and weaker macro conditions suggest lower comparable store-sales growth in the second half of 2025 and into 2026.
Inflation&#8217;s impact on margins is limited, and there&#8217;s a higher risk to global restaurant development plans, particularly in international markets, which could reduce long-term unit growth, the analyst said.
Economists predict a slowdown in U.S. GDP growth to 0.5% in 2025, down from 2.5% in 2024, with a 45% recession risk, up from 20% earlier in the year due to tightening financial conditions, foreign boycotts, and policy uncertainty.

The deceleration in consumer spending and macro headwinds are putting pressure on restaurant top-line growth, with varying impacts across different restaurant types.
Fast food restaurants show the lowest sensitivity to macroeconomic conditions, with higher resiliency compared to fast casual and full-service restaurants, which are more correlated with GDP and consumer discretionary spending.
Recent surveys show no significant shifts in consumer purchase intent for restaurants, with full-service restaurants seeing improvement compared to grocery stores, while limited-service restaurants have contracted in recent months.
What&#8217;s Next: Companies like Wendy&#8217;s Co (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WEN#NASDAQ">WEN</a>), Bloomin&#8217; Brands Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLMN#NASDAQ">BLMN</a>), Domino&#8217;s Pizza Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DPZ#NASDAQ">DPZ</a>), Wingstop Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WING#NASDAQ">WING</a>), Yum! Brands Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YUM#NYSE">YUM</a>), and Jack In The Box Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JACK#NASDAQ">JACK</a>) have higher lease-adjusted net leverage, with Starbucks Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>) and Domino&#8217;s facing notable near-term debt maturities.
Slower same-store sales growth and higher build costs are expected to hurt franchisee profitability and reduce demand for new stores.
Many fast food chains anticipate slower unit expansion in 2025, with Jack in The Box planning major cutbacks and closures, while fast casual/casual dining brands remain mostly on track.
Potential U.S. tariffs may raise domestic build costs, while international growth faces challenges from weaker global demand and rising anti-U.S. brand sentiment.
U.S. tariff actions and foreign policy stances have damaged international perceptions of the U.S., raising concerns about reduced demand for American brands.
While it&#8217;s too soon to measure definitive consumer pullback, monitoring sentiment is increasingly important for U.S. brands abroad.
Morning Consult data shows a YTD decline in U.S. favorability across most tracked countries, particularly Canada, Western Europe and Mexico.
Despite rising anti-U.S. sentiment globally, current data indicates no strong link between U.S. tariffs and Chinese consumer attitudes toward U.S. brands.

US Restaurants Face Growth Hurdles As Macro Headwinds Mount, Says Analyst

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New On The Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>Jack in the Box (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JACK#NASDAQ">JACK</a>) is exploring strategic options for Del Taco, including a potential sale, just two years after acquiring it for $585 million. According <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-23/jack-in-the-box-weighs-sale-of-del-taco-restaurant-chain?srnd=phx-deals&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">to</a> Bloomberg, the fast-food chain could fetch up to $200 million. The company is working with Bank of America on the process and plans to close 150 to 200 underperforming restaurants as part of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/fast-food">a broader restructuring</a>.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Billy McFarland, the infamous mastermind behind the spectacular dumpster fire known as Fyre Festival, is back. After conning the rich and famous (and some unlucky Instagram influencers) out of millions and earning himself nearly four years behind bars, McFarland was supposedly prepping for another Fyre event. With just a month to go before round two was set to launch, he's now trying to auction off the "Fyre" brand to the highest bidder, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DIzDz6exph0/?hl=en">saying</a>: "This brand is bigger than any one person" — this coming from the guy who turned it into a global meme against the gullible. </li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Updates On The Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>UPS (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) is <a href="https://about.ups.com/us/en/newsroom/press-releases/our-strategy/ups-to-acquire-andlauer-healthcare-group-for--1-6-billion--stren.html">acquiring</a> Canadian healthcare logistics firm Andlauer Healthcare Group (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AND#TSX">AND</a>) for approximately $1.6 billion, paying C$55 per share—a 31% premium. The deal, expected to close by year-end, could pressure rivals like FedEx and DHL to expand their presence in the higher-margin healthcare sector. Notably, Andlauer's CEO, Michael Andlauer, also owns the NHL's Ottawa Senators, who are currently down 2-0 in a series against the Toronto Maple Leafs.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Kimberly-Clark (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMB#NYSE">KMB</a>) has short-listed three strategic bidders for its global tissue unit, which could sell for around $4 billion. The unit generates approximately $500 million in annual EBITDA, and binding bids are expected by mid-May, according to Reuters.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Clothing brand Guess (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GES#NYSE">GES</a>) previously received a $677-million take-private bid from WHP Global. The brand is also considering a takeover bid from private equity-backed Authentic Brands Group. ABG backers include CVC Capital Partners, General Atlantic, HPS Investment Partners and Leonard Green &amp; Partners.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Merck KGaA is in late-stage talks to buy SpringWorks Therapeutics for around $3.5 billion, or approximately $47 per share. A deal could be announced as soon as Monday, Bloomberg reported. The deal would support Merck's pharma division, which is facing a patent expiration for a multiple sclerosis drug.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Tencent Music is reportedly <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-25/tencent-music-is-said-in-talks-to-buy-ximalaya-for-2-4-billion?srnd=phx-deals">in</a> discussions with China-based startup Ximalaya. The price tag is roughly $2.4 billion in a cash-and-stock deal. A deal could be finalized in the coming weeks, though discussions are ongoing. Ximalaya, backed by Tencent, Baidu and Sony Music, had 303 million monthly active users in 2023 and previously delayed a planned Hong Kong IPO. Tencent Music, which owns QQ Music, Kugou, Kuwo and WeSing, went public in the U.S. in 2018 and now has a market cap of about $20.6 billion.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>European regulators <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/f06fa20d-a76b-494a-a09b-224e4d210db4">are</a> preparing to investigate Universal Music Group's proposed $775 million acquisition of Downtown Music Holdings, the Financial Times reports. The update follows antitrust concerns raised in Austria and the Netherlands. Although the deal didn&#8217;t meet EU-wide merger notification thresholds, the European Commission accepted requests to review it due to potential impacts on competition within the Single Market. Universal announced the acquisition via its Virgin Music division in December.</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bankruptcy Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>Bertucci's is going back, not for seconds, but for thirds. The casual dining franchise known for its pizza is <a href="https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69938534/1/bertuccis-restaurants-llc/">headed</a> for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. This would be the third time since 2018. The chain closed 7 of its 22 locations before filing, leaving 15 operating restaurants across six states. The Northborough, Massachusetts-based franchise has downsized significantly from 56 locations in 2018. It is now exploring a fast-casual spinoff, Bertucci's Pronto, to adapt to shifting consumer preferences. The company also pointed to broader struggles in the dining sector, citing the bankruptcies of Red Lobster <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/11/41700829/deal-dispatch-tgi-fridays-goes-bankrupt-bhp-backtracks-comments-and-more-m-a-news">and TGI Fridays</a>.</li>

LAKE FOREST, Calif., April 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=nKSe90CJPlBNC4wfhYLsF5aGQfbR1_0RKkPnuSpFyKk2q-riU6Cp3877xtbfic9FqsepzGfnb2NAgVcV_chrwg==">Del Taco</a> is debuting a bold new brand campaign and the launch of three highly craveable new El Big Boxes that offer consumers unbeatable value.
Del Taco's new look and feel embraces its California roots while celebrating its innovative, one-of-a-kind spirit in bold and unexpected ways. This isn't just about where Del Taco comes from, it's about what Del Taco stands for. With signature Mexican menu items like tacos, burritos and quesadillas, alongside American classics like burgers, fries and shakes, Del Taco delivers favorites in unexpected ways.
"Our refreshed look and voice reflect who we are at our core — innovative, authentic and unapologetically different," said Sarah McAloon, Senior Vice President and Chief Administration Officer. "This rebrand allows us to continue embracing the unique spirit that's always made Del Taco stand out, while delivering unforgettable moments, fresh and delicious Ameri-Mex flavors and even more value to our guests."

Del Taco Releases Brand Refresh And New El Big Boxes

Barclays analyst Jeffrey Bernstein maintains Jack In The Box (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JACK#NASDAQ">JACK</a>) with a Equal-Weight and lowers the price target from $40 to $24.

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.

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.
So, keeping the above points in mind, the analyst has lowered the price targets for Bloomin&#8217; Brands Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLMN#NASDAQ">BLMN</a>), Dutch Bros Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BROS#NYSE">BROS</a>), Cheesecake Factory Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CAKE#NASDAQ">CAKE</a>), Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CBRL#NASDAQ">CBRL</a>), Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>), Krispy Kreme Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DNUT#NASDAQ">DNUT</a>), Domino&#8217;s Pizza Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DPZ#NASDAQ">DPZ</a>), Brinker International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EAT#NYSE">EAT</a>), Jack In The Box Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JACK#NASDAQ">JACK</a>), McDonald&#8217;s Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>), Papa John&#8217;s International Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PZZA#NASDAQ">PZZA</a>), Restaurant Brands International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QSR#NYSE">QSR</a>), Starbucks Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>), Sweetgreen Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SG#NYSE">SG</a>), Shake Shack Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHAK#NYSE">SHAK</a>), Sysco Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SYY#NYSE">SYY</a>), Texas Roadhouse Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXRH#NASDAQ">TXRH</a>), Wendy&#8217;s Co (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WEN#NASDAQ">WEN</a>), Wingstop Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WING#NASDAQ">WING</a>), and Yum!

지난 4월부터 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/24/01/36493680/mcdonalds-18-big-mac-meal-goes-viral-again-as-fast-food-minimum-wage-hike-to-20-triggers-fears-of-sk" target="_blank" rel="noopener">캘리포니아</a> 주 내 패스트푸드 직원들은 최저 시급 20달러를 받게 되었다.
이번 달 초부터 시행된 새 법률 덕분에 미국 전역에 60개 이상의 매장을 보유한 캘리포니아의 패스트푸드 체인점들은 그들의 직원들에게 더 많은 임금을 지급해야 한다.
작은 규모의 패스트푸드 점포들은 여전히 시간당 16달러의 주 최저임금을 적용받는다.
가장 큰 상장 패스트푸드 기업들로는 맥도날드(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>); 스타벅스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NASDAQ">SBUX</a>); 타코벨(Taco Bell)과 피자헛(Pizza Hut) 및 KFC를 소유하고 있는 얌! 브랜즈 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YUM#NYSE">YUM</a>); 웬디스(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WEN#NASDAQ">WEN</a>); 버거킹(Burger King)를 소유한 레스토랑 브랜드 인터내셔널(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QSR#NASDAQ">QSR</a>); 치폴레 멕시칸 그릴(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>); 파파 존스 인터내셔널(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PZZA#NASDAQ">PZZA</a>) 그리고 잭인더박스 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JACK#NASDAQ">JACK</a>)) 등이 있다.
4월 1일에 이 법률이 시행된 이후 이 기업들의 많은 주식들이 가치를 잃었다.

캘리포니아에서는 최저임금 인상이 꼭 필요하다고 여겨졌다. 무엇보다, <a href="https://www.rentcafe.com/cost-of-living-calculator/us/ca/">캘리포니아에서의 생활비</a>는 미국 전국 평균보다 약 38% 높다.
일부 패스트푸드 기업들은 직원 근무시간을 줄이고 메뉴 가격을 올리는 방안을 고려하고 있다.
인-앤-아웃 버거(In-N-Out Burger)의 사장 린시 스나이더(<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WEN#NASDAQ">Lynsi Snyder</a>)는 투데이(Today)와의 <a href="https://www.today.com/video/in-n-out-burger-president-shares-story-behind-family-run-business-208611397732">인터뷰</a>에서 &#8220;이 가격으로는 인상할 수 없다&#8221;고 말했다.
주로 캘리포니아에 400개 이상의 레스토랑을 소유하고 있는 그녀의 회사는 계속해서 비상장 기업으로 운영되고 있다. 스나이더는 프랜차이즈 모델을 공개하거나 공개할 계획이 없다고 말했다.
그러나 인-앤-아웃은 로스앤젤레스의 매장들에서 햄버거 한 개당 약 25센트씩 가격을 올렸다. 이는 다른 음식점들이 시행했던 가격 인상에 비해 낮은 수치이다.
뉴욕 포스트에 <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/04/11/business/in-n-out-president-lynsi-snyder-went-toe-to-toe-to-keep-menu-prices-down/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">따르면</a>, 로스앤젤레스의 버거킹 한 곳에서는 &#8220;더블 텍사스 와퍼(Double Texas Whopper)&#8221;의 가격이 15.09달러에서 16.89달러로 12% 인상되었다고 한다.
지난해 9월 법이 통과되기도 전에 많은 레스토랑 체인이 임금 인상 준비에 착수했다. 일부 회사에서는 자동화를 전략으로 모색하고 있으며, 이는 2017년 셀프 서비스 주문 키오스크를 통해 시작된 <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-self-serve-kiosks-at-mcdonalds-mean-for-cashiers-2017-6">트렌드</a>이다.
인사이더(Insider)에 <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/california-fast-food-minimum-wage-order-kiosks-burger-king-popeyes-2024-4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">따르면</a> 버거킹과 같은 주요 패스트푸드 프랜차이즈들은 새로운 디지털 주문 키오스크를 기존 직원들을 대체하기 위해 사용하고 있다고 한다.
버거킹 경영진은 최근에 발표한 보고서에서 디지털 셀프 서비스 화면과 상호작용할 때 손님들이 보다 큰 식사를 주문하는 경향이 있다고 지적했다.
10월에 캘리포니아 주지사인 개빈 뉴섬(Gavin Newsom)이 해당 법률에 서명한 후 맥도날드의 CEO인 크리스 켐프친스키(Chris Kempczinski)는 회사의 3분기 실적에 대한 통화에서 이 정책이 &#8220;단기간 내 프랜차이즈의 현금흐름에 확실히 타격을 줄 것&#8221;이라고 말했다.
그러나 이 새로운 법의 부차적인 영향은 캘리포니아의 패스트푸드 부문에 더 큰 문제를 일으킬 수도 있다. 잭인더박스(Jack-In-The-Box) 프랜차이즈 소유자는 일요일 비지니스 인사이더(Business Insider)와의 <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/fast-food-california-expensive-diners-could-switch-to-chilis-applebees-2024-4">인터뷰</a>에서 패스트푸드 체인의 가격 상승이 브링커 인터내셔널(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EAT#NYSE">EAT</a>) 또는 다인 브랜즈 글로벌(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIN#NYSE">DIN</a>)의 자회사 애플비(Applebee)가 소유한 칠리스(Chili&#8217;s)와 같은 캐주얼 식당의 시장 점유율 손실을 의미할 수 있다고 추측했다.
캐주얼 다이닝 레스토랑은 가격을 변경하지 않고 계속 운영할 수 있다면 이익을 얻을 수 있다.
