CMG vs. ETF Alternatives
Company Description
Steve Ells, Founder, Chairman and Co-Chief Executive Officer, started Chipotle with the idea that food served fast did not have to be a typical fast food experience. Today, Chipotle continues to offer a focused menu of burritos, tacos, burrito bowls (a burrito without the tortilla) and salads... More

- Wednesday, October 24, 2012, 1:51 PM Einhorn vs. Chipotle, Round 2: Greenlight Capital's bearish stance on Chipotle (CMG +1.2%) doesn't budge an inch with the firm continuing to hold on to its view that the new menu from Taco Bell (YUM +0.2%) will be a major drag on the restaurant chain's sales. A survey by the hedge fund found a high percentage of Chiptole customers sampled the Cantina Bell menu after its launch, with 50% rating it equal or better fare. (Greenlight Capital letter .pdf) 6 Comments [Consumer, On the Move]
- Tuesday, October 23, 2012, 11:30 AM Chipotle (CMG +1.4%) sticks its neck out into positive territory after CFO Jack Hartung hits Mad Money to note the company will be "opportunistic" when it buy its stock back and highlights in detail that the so-called slump in same-store sales is mainly due to pricing increases that rolled off.

[On the Move] - Friday, October 19, 2012, 7:35 AM A chart on Chipotle's (CMG) full-year guidance over the years put together by Baird tells a different story than some of the doom and gloom calls put out on the restaurant chain after its sluggish quarter and guidance. At the very least, it can be noted the company has a long history of setting itself up to beat its own estimates. CMG -10.9% AH. 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, October 18, 2012, 4:24 PM Shares of Chipotle (CMG), down 10.4% AH, are now off 37% from where they traded just three months ago as the momentum finally wears thin for the stock. Whether Einhorned or not, the restaurant chain's comparable restaurant guidance for 2013 - set at flat to low-single digit growth - doesn't square away to traders with CMG's lofty earnings multiples. 8 Comments [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, October 18, 2012, 4:14 PM More on Chipotle (CMG): Growth at the chain clearly slows with comparable restaurant sales only up 4.8% after a double-digit pace has been the norm the last few years. Restaurant level operating margin rose 70 bp to 27.4%. The company expects to open 165-180 new restaurants in 2013 and forecasts flat to low-single digit comparable restaurant sales for the year. Shares -11.1% AH. Conference call scheduled for 4:30 EST (webcast) (PR) Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, October 18, 2012, 4:05 PM Chipotle (CMG): Q3 EPS of $2.27 misses by $0.03. Revenue of $700.5M (+18.4% Y/Y) misses by $1.7M. Shares -8.1% AH (PR) 3 Comments [Earnings, Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, October 18, 2012, 1:54 PM Heading into Chipotle's (CMG -1.8%) release of Q3 earnings, Tiburon Research Group backs the name for a solid earnings beat. The firm sees EPS of $2.39, beating estimates by a dime and has Q4 EPS lined up at $2.23. Chipotle's top-line deceleration has overshadowed what's been solid restaurant margin gains.

- Thursday, October 11, 2012, 8:06 AM Quick service restaurants continue to play catch-up with leaders Chipotle (CMG) and Panera Bread (PNRA) as they try to subtly shift from "fast food" to "fast casual" and steal customers from sit-down alternatives. After McDonald's (MCD) set the bar high with premium coffee, smoothies, and reworked restaurants with HD TVs - nearly every chain has set in motion a modernization plan of its own. Comment! [Consumer]
- Wednesday, October 10, 2012, 10:19 AM Chipotle vs. Taco Bell: No sooner had Yum Brands posted its quarterly earnings before analysts on both side of the Chipotle debate pointed to the 7% rise in Taco Bell's same-store sales to make their case. While one camp sees the jump as a clear indication that the Cantina Bell menu is pulling consumers away from pricier Chipotle restaurants, the other side maintains Chipotle's growth numbers will be undeterred by the marketing blip. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, October 4, 2012, 9:56 AM Is $300 the breaking point for Chipotle (CMG -0.3%) now that David Einhorn has rained on its parade? SA author pitches the case that a small tester short position should be taken if shares cross the psychologically-important threshold. Another point of concern, insider selling has picked up as of late. Comment! [Consumer]
- Wednesday, October 3, 2012, 11:19 AM A taco too far? Shares of Chipotle (CMG) recover more than half the ground lost after David Einhorn unleashed his short thesis on the company yesterday. Though the argument on valuation and commodity costs resonate, Einhorn seems to have lost the investment community with his take that Taco Bell's (YUM +0.3%) refreshed menu will steal significant market share from Chipotle. The counterpoint being bandied about is that CMG's brand equity and Taco Bell's long history as an unhealthy fast-food stopping off point make the two chains too far away for direct comparisons. 2 Comments [Consumer]
- Tuesday, October 2, 2012, 11:25 AM David Einhorn, who giveth new life (General Motors) and taketh away (Green Mountain Coffee Roasters), now has Chipotle (CMG -6.5%) in his sights. His short thesis on the "nosebleed" valuation name focuses on Taco Bell and its updated Cantina Bell menu - despite previous reports tipping off that the effect has been minimal. Naturally, shares of Chipotle are diving off the Einhorn takedown. 11 Comments [Consumer, On the Move]
