While GEN Restaurant Group shows strong expansion efforts and growth initiatives, significant challenges in same-store sales decline, increased costs, and a net loss overshadow these achievements. The international and grocery store expansion initiatives are promising, but current financial strains and market conditions present considerable hurdles.

Company Guidance

During the GEN Restaurant Group's 3Q 2025 earnings call, the company provided detailed guidance on its financial and operational performance. They reported a 2.7% year-over-year increase in total revenue to $50.4 million, despite a 9.9% drop in same-store sales, attributing this to macroeconomic pressures and a downturn in restaurant customer traffic. The company highlighted its expansion efforts, having opened 15 new restaurants in 2025, exceeding their initial estimate, with a total of 57 restaurants now in operation, including 6 in South Korea. The average unit volume (AUV) revenue was reported at $5.2 million per restaurant. GEN's new grocery store initiative, featuring ready-to-cook branded meats, is anticipated to generate over $100 million in annual revenue over the next 4 to 5 years. The company also discussed financial metrics such as a 15% restaurant-level adjusted EBITDA margin and a net loss before income taxes of $3.9 million. They projected full-year revenue of $220 million to $225 million, with a targeted annual run rate of approximately $250 million by the end of 2025.

Expansion and Growth Initiatives

GEN Restaurant Group opened 15 new restaurants in the first 9 months of 2025, exceeding their initial estimate, with a total of 17 stores planned for the year. They also launched ready-to-cook Korean branded meats in over 600 grocery stores, expecting significant revenue growth from this initiative.

International Expansion
