Reason

Morgan Stanley analyst Brian Harbour lowered the firm's price target on Cava Group to $107 from $115 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares. With industry demand improved, the firm sees a likely better quarter for restaurants and food distributors than Q1, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Ongoing policy noise remains a risk but middle/upper income customer cohorts remain solid, and costs are mostly benign, the firm argues.

Overweight

Reason

JPMorgan lowered the firm's price target on Cava Group to $95 from $115 and keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. The firm is more cautious on Cava, saying the company's same-store-sales look to be softer than modeled as higher new unit volumes normally influence expected year two comp contribution. JPMorgan stays Overweight but acknowledges that the lack of near-term valuation support may provide a better entry point.

Buy

Reason

Stifel analyst Chris O'Cull lowered the firm's price target on Cava Group to $125 from $175 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares, telling investors that the firm believes Q2 comps could fall modestly below the Street mean, primarily due to the difficult lap created by the successful launch of Grilled Steak in early June 2024. The firm reduced its Q2 same-restaurant sales growth projection to 5.5%, below the Street at 6.9%, but its full-year SRS growth estimate of about 7% still reflects the company's guidance of a three-year stack in the high 30% range, the analyst tells investors. The firm, which believes average unit volumes will likely expand at a faster rate than anticipated as brand awareness grows, expects this dynamic to drive upside for the foreseeable future and recommends investors "take advantage of short-term, sentiment-driven pullbacks."
