Reason

Barclays analyst Jeffrey Bernstein lowered the firm's price target on Jack in the Box to $24 from $40 and keeps an Equal Weight rating on the shares as part of a Q1 preview for the restaurant group. Comps were challenged by weather to start Q1, before a partial March rebound, the analyst tells investors in a research note. However, the firm says the lack of a full recovery is proof of an underlying easing in consumer spending. While most restaurants are insulated from tariffs from a supply chain impact, "not so much for the demand decline to follow," the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Reason

Baird lowered the firm's price target on Jack in the Box to $25 from $34 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. With the probabilities of an economic slowdown seemingly rising following the "shock" of last week's tariff announcement, Baird lowered estimates and price targets for the restaurants. It still believes exposure to restaurants remains appropriate, but is "dialing up" a preference for franchisors and keeps Outperform ratings on the businesses it thinks would be positioned to perform reasonably well in a downturn scenario. Baird moved to the sidelines on Portillo's and Starbucks.
