Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Advertising InvestmentA significant increase in advertising spend, rising by more than twenty percent, should boost brand visibility and support same-store sales recovery.
Cost Reduction PlanManagement's plan to harvest $50 million in supply chain savings by 2028 and realize $20 million in fiscal 2026, together with identified G&A reductions, could materially improve operating margins.
International PerformanceStrong international same-store sales growth of over seven percent following market rationalization in the U.K. and China highlights growth potential outside the domestic market.
Bears Say
Consumer Demand And Promotional PressureA softer consumer environment and intensified QSR promotional activity, causing trade down to smaller sizes and fewer toppings per order, can pressure sales and margins.
Marketing Spend VolatilityEBITDA could swing meaningfully if management increases contributions to the marketing fund, making earnings sensitive to marketing funding decisions.
Refranchising RiskExtensive refranchising of company-owned units may introduce variability in future earnings through shifts in royalty income and operating leverage.
