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, April 24, 6:43 AM More on Yum Brands (YUM) (previous: I, II): With all the focus on China this year, it's almost lost in the shuffle that Yum Brands (YUM) operates more than a couple of KFC and Taco Bell restaurants in the U.S. where performance in Q1 came in strong. Same-store sales grew 2% to beat the pace of many rivals, while the company improved its operating margin by 4 percentage points to 23.7% due to sales leverage at Taco Bell. Though its painful for some Chipotle (CMG) loyalists to admit, the refreshed menu at Taco Bell is helping the chain make strides. YUM +3.7% premarket. 3 Comments [Consumer, Earnings, On the Move]
- Friday, April 19, 1:49 PM Deutsche Bank adds to the positive sell-side calls on Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG +10.6%), raising its price target to $345 from $330. Deutsche says CMG's Q1 margins were a "solid beat" but notes that the company seemed "more hesitant about raising prices" on this quarter's call, as management is apparently concerned with the "choppy macro" environment. DB's commentary is less sanguine than that of Credit Suisse and Northcoast which may explain why DB's new price target is the lowest of the group. 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]

Friday, April 19, 1:09 PM
Midday top 10 gainers: VRTX +60%. NETE +33%. RH +21%. MCOX +18%. OSTK +17%. HWAY +17%. NVDQ +16%. ANAC +12%. LIVE +11%. CMG +10%.
Midday top 10 losers: ACTG -25%. VIMC -15%. PRGX -14%. AIRM -14%. NSIT -12%. CNIT -11%. RMBS -10%. CRME -10%. DIT -9%. OSH -9%. 1 Comment [On the Move] - Friday, April 19, 10:11 AM Credit Suisse raises its price target on Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG +7.6%) after the company announced Q1 earnings Thursday. Comps growth of 1% Y/Y demonstrated that the company "weathered headwinds better than some had feared," and "excluding all the noise" comps on a one- and two-year basis "remain stable" showing the consumer "remains in the sluggish but stable trajectory." In a separate report, Northcoast Research upgrades the shares to Buy from Neutral. Price targets are now $360 for CS and $400 for NR. 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, April 18, 4:54 PM More on Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG) Q1 earnings: Comparable restaurant sales growth of 1% Y/Y was hurt by fewer trading days this year. Operating margin of 26.3% off 110 bps from a year ago. Food costs at 33% of revenue up 80 bps. Opened 48 restaurants during Q1. Management expects 165-180 new restaurant openings for all 2013 and flat-low single digit comparable sales. Earnings call started at 4:30 ET. Shares +5.7% AH. (PR) 5 Comments [Earnings, Financials, On the Move]
- Thursday, April 11, 1:28 PM Shares of Chipotle (CMG -2.2%) move lower after Jeffrey Gundlach calls the restaurant operator a "good short" idea and ITG Majestic says March sales are running below consensus. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, April 3, 9:52 AM Raymond James is doing wonders for the restaurant sector with a number of upgrades that are helping light a fire under shares. Lower commodity prices and indications of a bounce in QSR spending look good enough to the firm for it to take its foot off the brakes. Upgrades: Buffalo Wild Wings (BWLD +3.5%) to Strong Buy from Market Perform; Panera Bread (PNRA +3.9%) to Market Perform; Chipotle (CMG +1.2%) to Market Perform from Underperform; Brinker International (EAT +2.6%) to Outperform from Market Perform. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 6, 2:34 PM Shares of Chipotle (CMG +4.9%) trade at their highest level of the year despite guidance from the company which indicates the former growth high-flyer expects same-restaurant sales to pick up at low single digit pace in 2013. The bullish sentiment appears to be tied in part to the price hikes which the company plans on passing on to consumers at some point this year in order to offset food input costs. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, January 28, 8:24 AM Chipotle (CMG) catches an upgrade from Lazard Capital to Buy from Neutral. A lush new price target from the firm of $388 implies 28% upside for shares and should add a little support heading into the restaurant's operator's earnings report. CMG +1.8% premarket to $308.90. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]

Wednesday, January 16, 9:10 AM
Premarket gainers: GNW +10%. TTMI +7%. VRA +7%.
Losers: CMG -8%. CIE -7%. CRS -6%. Comment! [On the Move] - Thursday, January 3, 9:21 AM Miller Tabak raises its price target on Chipotle (CMG) to $360 from $335 while maintaining a solid Buy rating on the restaurant operator. Meanwhile, Jefferies has the other side of the trade, noting pressure from Taco Bell will pressure sales and margins. CMG -1.5% premarket. 4 Comments [Consumer, On the Move]
- Tuesday, December 4, 2012, 9:09 AM The restaurant sector is on watch after a profit warning from Darden Restaurants points to weakness, not in Europe or China, but at home in the U.S. While increased promotional activity in the sector is behind part of the slip from Darden, the bigger question is why are sales so weak for big players if consumer confidence is supposedly bouncing back? 12 Comments [Consumer, On the Move]
- Tuesday, November 6, 2012, 12:09 PM Chipotle (CMG +5.6%) moves higher after catching an upgrade from Bank of America to Buy from Hold. The firm notes CMG trades at a 30% discount to its 5-year average valuation. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, October 31, 2012, 11:25 AM Fast-food restaurant operators such as Dunkin' Brands (DNKN +0.6%), Chipotle (CMG +0.1%), and McDonald's (MCD -0.1%)) could ride out Hurricane Sandy a bit better than some of the forecasts calling for a significant drop in Q4 sales, according to analysis from Miller Tabak. Lost revenue from the past week in affected areas could be offset by evacuation route stores picking up extra traffic and relief workers coming in with few dining options. Names to watch: Ruby Tuesday (RT +1.4%) with close to 44% of its outlets in the hurricane zone, Brinker International (EAT -1.2%) at 32.6%, Panera Bread (PNRA -1.6%) with 32.6%, and Cheesecake Factor (CAKE +0.3%) sitting at 28.2%. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- 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.
