Gen Restaurant Group reports Q4 EPS (36c) vs. (4c) last year.

Reports Q4 revenue $49.7M vs. $54.7M last year. The company states: “The fourth quarter continued to be a very challenging environment for all restaurant businesses. Since the majority of our customer base is Hispanic in most markets, and they have been put under extreme pressure through immigration enforcement, our customers have retracted and are afraid to come out. This significantly reduces our customer traffic. Additionally, just as we felt we were turning the corner, the increase in fuel prices because of the war has reduced customer discretionary spending. All of this has led to a decrease in our same store sales. In spite of this, we completed our business plan for the year including opening new stores, continuing to deliver an exceptional service and build our brand recognition. We opened 15 restaurants in 2025, including 6 located in South Korea, for a total of 57 restaurants in operation. In the first quarter of 2026, we opened two additional restaurants in Tucson, Arizona and Denton, Texas.”
