What the Analysts think about Cava Group

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Cava Group stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

Cava Group posted Q1 FY2025 revenue of $331.8 million, marking a 28.1% increase from a year earlier and beating analyst estimates. Same-store sales jumped 10.8%, while profit margins improved to 25.1%, indicating strong operational performance (Reuters).
Management reaffirmed full-year targets for same-store sales growth at 6%–8% and profit margins of 24.8%–25.2%, and raised 2025 restaurant opening guidance to 64–68, signaling confidence in Cava’s growth outlook (Reuters).
Strategic moves—including a new loyalty program, enhanced drive-thru offerings, and new menu items like grilled steak—have driven increased customer visits and larger average checks, strengthening Cava’s position in the fast-casual market (Reuters).
In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, Cava’s same-store sales rose just 2.1%, falling well short of consensus expectations of 6.47%. This underperformance led the company to revise its full-year same-store sales guidance downward to 4%–6%, causing the stock to drop 21% (Reuters).
CEO Brett Schulman pointed to weaker traffic in June and early July, attributing it to greater consumer caution amid economic uncertainty. This underscores Cava’s exposure to macroeconomic headwinds and trends in discretionary spending (Reuters).
Although Cava is holding firm on its profit margin forecast, the company’s decision not to raise prices—even as inflationary pressures persist—could squeeze margins further if input costs rise, posing a risk to stability in profitability (Reuters).
