Cava Group price target raised to $75 from $69 at UBS

UBS analyst Dennis Geiger raised the firm’s price target on Cava Group (CAVA) to $75 from $69 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. Cava’s Q4 results beat expectations on same-store sales and adjusted EBITDA, with strong momentum carrying into Q1 and 2026 guidance largely in line with consensus but slightly above investor expectations, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The company’s differentiated menu, compelling sales drivers, and attractive new-unit returns support its growth story, though further evidence of sustained performance in a challenging macro environment is needed before taking a more constructive view on shares, UBS says.
