Analyst Note
| Sean Dunlop |We expect sluggish sales growth to represent the key issue for the restaurant industry in 2023, following a year of investor concern regarding inflated input costs and margin compression. Though we see modest upside in wide-moat Domino's and view wide-moat Chipotle shares as fairly valued, the industry trades at a 5% market-cap weighted premium to our fair value estimates, suggesting that current entry prices are less than salient.
