Earnings Call Summary

Q4 2025

Earnings Call Sentiment|Positive

The call emphasizes significant growth and strong unit economics — record revenue (> $1B), double-digit top-line growth, robust new-unit productivity and strong liquidity — balanced against margin pressure from commodity and LTO costs, elevated investment and capex-driven cash flow reduction. Management provided a constructive FY2026 outlook while taking conservative assumptions for macro uncertainty and flagging near-term margin headwinds (notably salmon, higher tax rate and increased equity compensation). Overall the positive operating momentum, healthy balance sheet and explicit growth plan materially outweigh the headwinds tied largely to planned investments and temporary cost pressures.

Company Guidance

CAVA’s 2026 guidance calls for 74–76 net new restaurants, CAVA same‑restaurant sales of 3%–5%, and a restaurant‑level profit margin of 23.7%–24.2% (with preopening costs of $19.5M–$20M), driving adjusted EBITDA (including the burden of preopening) of $176M–$184M; the outlook embeds a ~90% new‑restaurant productivity assumption, assumes a ~1.4% in‑restaurant price increase taken in Jan‑2026 with no further price increases, expects salmon (launching Q1/Q2) to be a ~100 bps restaurant‑margin headwind but penny profit neutral, anticipates low single‑digit food/bev/packaging inflation and low‑to‑mid single‑digit labor inflation (including modest AGM investments), projects G&A as a percent of revenue to remain relatively flat, plans stock‑based compensation of $22M–$24M in 2026 (with ~55% of that expense in H1 due to vesting timing), expects an effective tax rate of ~25%–30% for the year (slightly lower in H1), and enters the year with $393M cash & investments, 0 debt and a $75M undrawn revolver (with plans to increase/extend it in Q1).

Record Annual Revenue — First Year over $1B

CAVA surpassed $1.0 billion in revenue for fiscal 2025, with full-year revenue growing 22.5% year-over-year and 63.1% over the last 2 years.

Strong Unit Growth and New Unit Productivity

Opened 24 net new restaurants in Q4 and 72 net new restaurants for the full year, ending 2025 with 439 restaurants (a 19.6% year-over-year increase). 2025 cohort NRO AUVs trended above $3.0 million and new-restaurant productivity remained above 100% for the year.

Healthy Unit Economics and Restaurant-Level Profit

Reported restaurant-level profit margin of 21.4% (Q4) and restaurant-level profit of $58.3 million in Q4 (15.7% growth vs Q4 2024). Company expects restaurant-level profit margin between 23.7% and 24.2% in 2026 (preopening).
