Domino's Pizza Seen Drawing Positive Stock Reaction After Q2 Results, UBS Says

Domino's Pizza (DPZ) is likely to see a positive stock reaction after reporting better-than-expected US same-store sales and operating income in Q2, though investors will focus on any updates to 2026 guidance, UBS Securities said.The brokerage said in a Monday note that the US same-store sales of 0.1% topped consensus estimates and exceeded most investor expectations, while operating income also beat forecasts. Earnings per share missed consensus due to unrealized losses related to DPC Dash that were not included in most estimates.UBS said management's comments on 2026 guidance, third-quarter-to-date US sales trends and key sales drivers-including promotional activity, the DoorDash (DASH) partnership, Parmesan Stuffed Crust pizza and Slice Sauce-are likely to determine the stock's reaction.The investment firm said positive delivery and carryout order growth in the US during Q2, along with the addition of millions of new customers, leaves Domino's well-positioned for continued US market share gains in 2026.UBS has a buy rating on the stock and a price target of $375 per share.Price: $329.57, Change: $+0.59, Percent Change: +0.18%

Domino's Pizza Seen Offering Improved Stock Setup, Oppenheimer Says

Domino's Pizza (DPZ) offers an improved stock setup as better-than-feared Q2 results suggest bearish investor expectations may be too negative, Oppenheimer said in a Monday note.Q2 US same-store sales rose 0.1%, exceeding depressed buy-side expectations of a 1% to 2% decline, driven by meaningful order count growth, the investment firm said.Management is focused on improving ticket trends in H2 while maintaining positive traffic drivers and launching an "incremental new product" in Q3, Oppenheimer said.International same-store sales continue to be affected by Domino's strategy to reduce lower-margin transactions but Oppenheimer said it sees a path to improvement as the company refreshes its value strategy under its new CEO.Oppenheimer maintained its outperform rating on Domino's Pizza and lowered its price target to $415 from $465.Price: $330.68, Change: $+1.71, Percent Change: +0.52%

Domino's Fiscal Second-Quarter Revenue Tops Street Views on Order Count Growth

Domino's Pizza (DPZ) reported fiscal second-quarter revenue above market estimates on Monday, driven by order count growth, while the pizza restaurant chain's earnings increased year over year but missed expectations.The company's revenue rose to $1.19 billion for the quarter ended June 14 from $1.15 billion a year ago, topping the FactSet-polled consensus of $1.18 billion. The top-line benefited from gains in supply chain revenue, as well as higher global franchise royalties and advertising revenue, according to Domino's. Supply chain revenue increased on higher order volumes and food basket pricing to stores.Per-share earnings in the quarter increased to $4.07 from $3.81, but trailed the Street's view for $4.17.The stock rose 6.9% in the most recent premarket activity."In the second quarter, Domino's drove meaningful order count growth," Chief Executive Russell Weiner said in a statement. "In a quarter where the broader US (quick service restaurant) industry continued to face pressure on consumer demand, Domino's generated order count growth across both our delivery and carryout businesses."Last month, Domino's announced that Weiner will step down as CEO at the end of September, with Chief Operating Officer Joe Jordan to succeed him.US same-store sales edged up 0.1% in the second quarter, slowing from a 3.4% increase in the prior-year quarter. International same-store sales, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, declined 0.1%, compared with growth of 2.4% last year.Earlier this month, UBS Securities said Domino's Pizza was expected to post soft second-quarter results due to economic headwinds and increased promotional activity. The brokerage at the time expected the company to report a US same-store sales decline of 1.5% in the second quarter.Domino's saw global net store growth of 209 stores, including 26 net store openings in the US and 183 net store openings internationally in the three-month period. Global retail sales climbed 3%, excluding foreign currency."Our scale and competitive position have never been stronger," Weiner said. "Domino's is uniquely positioned to continue gaining market share and delivering long-term value for shareholders."

Restaurants, Food Distributors Poised for Mixed Second Quarter, Morgan Stanley Says

Restaurants, Food Distributors Poised for Mixed Second Quarter, Morgan Stanley Says

US restaurant and food distribution companies likely saw a mixed second quarter, with largely stable industry trends that are masking "signs of strain," Morgan Stanley said in a note e-mailed Wednesday.The stable outlook is supported by Black Box data showing steady same-store sales growth through the June quarter, according to the brokerage. However, there are certain "signs of strain," the firm said in a note to clients. The sectors are facing slowing retail sales and other headwinds. A possible summer cyclosporiasis outbreak could temporarily impact the lettuce supply and deter diners, Morgan Stanley said."We don't see a big change in underlying macro themes near term that could help change the fortunes of some of the more challenged brands," the brokerage wrote. "Larger (quick-service restaurant) we think remains a soft spot; beverage quite strong; fast-casual mixed, but maybe better at the margin; full-service also mixed, but good in absolute; and food (distribution) resilient overall."Morgan Stanley sees Performance Food Group (PFGC) as a preferred name among food distributors. All companies in the brokerage's coverage in this category are likely to have "solid (second) quarters, though bars are higher today," according to the note.The firm sees another "tougher" quarter for franchised fast food companies, with certain exceptions, it said. McDonald's (MCD) and Domino's Pizza (DPZ) are among the names that likely face tougher near-term setups. Beverage continues to be a "bright spot," with Morgan Stanley remaining overweight on Starbucks (SBUX) and Dutch Bros' (BROS) stocks, according to the note.The firm upgraded its rating on Cava Group's (CAVA) shares to overweight from equal weight while downgrading both Chefs' Warehouse (CHEF) and Black Rock Coffee Bar (BRCB) to equal weight from overweight.Cava is among the few companies that Morgan Stanley said it feels "good about most" regarding several key growth metrics, including traffic and unit expansion. "Valuation is defensible, because it remains one of the strongest fundamental stories in restaurants," the brokerage wrote.Although Chefs' Warehouse remains fundamentally strong with a high likelihood of beating its financial guidance, a nearly 60% year-to-date rally has pushed the stock to the high end of its typical valuation range, Morgan Stanley said."Looking at the numbers, there remains a disconnect between (Black Rock Coffee Bar's) growth profile and valuation, but we're aware that narrative, execution, and qualitative concerns can sometimes override that," the brokerage wrote. "For a newly public young company in a large competitive category, hitting guidance isn't enough."Price: $110.83, Change: $-2.16, Percent Change: -1.91%

Restaurant Sector Remains Mixed as Stronger Operators Outperform, Morgan Stanley Says

Restaurant and food companies continue to see mixed performance, as stronger operators outperform while weaker brands face ongoing challenges, Morgan Stanley said in a note Wednesday.Recent market shifts, including artificial intelligence and uncertainty around Iran, have led investors to better differentiate between companies still delivering and those that are not, the investment bank said, adding it does not expect any major near-term macroeconomic changes that would improve conditions for challenged brands.Across the industry, large quick-service restaurants remain a weak segment, while beverage companies continue to perform strongly, and fast-casual restaurants are mixed but showing modest improvement, according to the note. Full-service restaurants are also mixed but remain solid overall, and food distributors continue to demonstrate resilience, the investment bank said."Recent slowing in industry data will be a focus, though perhaps short lived and comparisons help as we head into late Q3/Q4 for many and the overall industry," the bank added.Morgan Stanley raised its price target on Starbucks (SBUX) to $111 from $110, Restaurant Brands International (QSR) to $79 from $78, CAVA Group (CAVA) to $90 from $86, and Dutch Bros (BROS) to $88 from $87, while lowering its price target on Domino's Pizza (DPZ) to $370 from $395, and McDonald's (MCD) to $322 from $331.The bank downgraded Black Rock Coffee Bar (BRCB) to equal-weight from overweight and cut its price target to $9 from $22, while upgrading CAVA Group (CAVA) to overweight from equal-weight and raising the price target to $90 from $86. Morgan Stanley downgraded Chefs' Warehouse (CHEF) to equal-weight from overweight while raising its price target to $97 from $83.The bank also increased its price targets on Performance Food Group (PFGC) to $131 from $120, Sysco (SYY) to $88 from $84, and US Foods (USFD) to $103 from $94.Price: $106.99, Change: $+0.82, Percent Change: +0.78%

Domino's Pizza Poised to Report Q2 Revenue, EPS Below Consensus, RBC Capital Market Says

Domino's Pizza (DPZ) is poised to report its Q2 revenue marginally below consensus and earnings per share 3.6% below, with US same-store sales are expected to be in-line and international sales to miss estimates, RBC Capital Markets said in a note.The risk-reward profile on the company's stock is skewed negative heading into the quarterly print, RBC said on Sunday, adding that the industry's promotional activity likely continued through the quarter, which has limited Domino's Pizza's market share gains.RBC said that industry competitive dynamics and discounting in Q2 have remained similar to Q1, and that Domino's Pizza has not made significant changes to their value offerings in response to competitors.Over medium to long-term, Domino's Pizza is expected to return to "meaningful share gains" from its competitors as industry discounting normalizes and given the company's strong franchisee profitability and paybacks, according to the note.Domino's Pizza is scheduled to report its Q2 earnings on July 20.RBC maintained its sector perform rating with a $325 price target.Price: $310.37, Change: $+10.91, Percent Change: +3.64%

Domino's Quarterly Results Likely Impacted by Macro Pressures, Promotions, UBS Says

Domino's Pizza (DPZ) is expected to post soft second-quarter results due to economic headwinds and increased promotional activity across the pizza category, UBS Securities said in a note emailed Wednesday.The brokerage expects Domino's US same-store sales to fall 1.5% in the second quarter, compared with consensus expectations that UBS put at 0.3% growth. UBS forecasts the pizza restaurant operator's earnings per share at $3.91, lower than Wall Street's expectation of $4.23.Soft consumer spending and heightened promotional competition will likely offset the impact of sales initiatives, including those focused on value, and third-party contributions, UBS analyst Dennis Geiger said.Crude and gasoline prices soared in the aftermath of the Iran war, souring consumer sentiment. Energy prices have come down as the US and Iran engaged in talks and agreed to a memorandum of understanding to end their war in June.Earlier this year, Domino's Pizza reported weaker-than-expected first-quarter results as consumer uncertainty and inflation weighed on demand late in the quarter. It is scheduled to report second-quarter financials July 20.The company said last month Chief Operating Officer Joe Jordan will succeed Russell Weiner as chief executive later this year.UBS projects a 0.2% increase in US comparable sales for the full year."While near-term headwinds are likely to persist and comparisons are getting tougher into (the second half), we anticipate sequential recovery over the longer-term," Geiger added.Promotional offerings and expansion of its DoorDash (DASH) partnership will help drive a long-term recovery, UBS said.The company's valuation offers an attractive risk-reward profile backed by expected market share gains despite economic uncertainty, according to the note.UBS reiterated its buy rating on Domino's stock and kept the price target unchanged at $375.Domino's shares closed 3.4% lower on Wednesday. The stock has lost 27% so far this year.Price: $303.15, Change: $-10.00, Percent Change: -3.19%

Domino's Pizza's Market Share Gains May Represent Catalyst, UBS Says
