Chipotle Now Expects Flat Comps for 2025
Image Source: Valuentum. Looking to 2025, Chipotle now expects flat full year comparable restaurant sales (was low to mid-single digits) and plans to open 315-345 new company-owned restaurants with over 80% having a Chipotlane. We like Chipotle’s long-term restaurant growth potential and believe its negative comps registered in the second quarter are temporary. Shares remain an idea in the Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio.

Domino’s Same Store Sales Growth Beats Expectations
Image Source: Domino's. During the quarter, Domino’s global net store growth was 178, consisting of 30 net store openings in the U.S. and 148 net store openings internationally. Net income in the quarter declined 7.7%, but this was primarily due to an unfavorable charge of $27.4 million associated with the company’s investment in DPC Dash Ltd and a higher effective tax rate. Diluted earnings per share was $3.81 in the second quarter, down from $4.03 in the second quarter of 2024. Net cash provided by operating activities was $366.9 million in the first half of 2025, up from $274.2 million, and free cash flow was $331.7 million in the first half of 2025, compared to $230.5 million in the first half of 2024. We continue to like Domino’s as an idea in the Best Ideas Newsletter portfolio. Jul 16, 2025
