- Friday, April 5, 8:13 AM Shares of Wendy's (WEN) slip 2.5% in premarket trading after the restaurant stock takes a few shots from Jim Cramer on the lightning round of Mad Money last night. Of a beefier note, Janney Capital's main restaurant analyst trimmed his estimate for Wendy's Q1 same-store sales to 1.5% from 2%. (video) Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Friday, March 1, 1:03 PM Wendy's (WEN -3.2%) falls lower after Morgan Stanley lowers its rating to Underweight from Equal-Weight. The firm thinks macro factors and increased competition makes the short-term tough for the restaurant operator. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, February 28, 8:25 AM More on Wendy's (WEN): Q4 Same-restaurant sales slipped 0.2% Y/Y running up against a tough comp from last year when the Dave's Hot 'n Juicy cheeseburgers were introduced. The company plans to remodel 100 company-owned and 100 franchised-owned locations this year. For 2013, a forecast for 2% to 3% same-store sales growth is reiterated. WEN +2.0% premarket. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 20, 1:56 PM Restaurant companies Wendy's (WEN +5.7%), Ruth's Hospitality (RUTH +7.1%), and Texas Roadhouse (TXRH +6.3%) show outsized gains in a sector struggling to finds its footing with margins getting pinched. The moves could be some portfolio re-shuffling by investors as the trio have been showing stronger same-store sales numbers and traffic trends than rivals. Comment! [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]
- Thursday, November 8, 2012, 8:10 AM More on Wendy's (WEN) Q3: Same-store sales up a steady 2.7% in North America as menu innovations and new marketing campaigns slowly raise the company's brand awareness with consumers. A $100M share repurchase program is approved and the company's quarterly dividend is doubled to $0.04 a share. The preliminary forecast for 2013 includes an estimate for adjusted EBITDA of $350M-$360M. Shares -1.2% premarket. (PR) Comment! [Consumer, On the Move, Earnings]
- Thursday, November 8, 2012, 8:02 AM Wendy's (WEN): Q3 EPS of $0.03 misses by $0.02. Revenue of $636.3M (-4.1% Y/Y) misses by $4M. Shares -1.2% premarket. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Monday, October 1, 2012, 9:59 AM Wendy's (WEN -5.6%) trades lower after taking on a downgrade from Janney Capital to Neutral from Buy as channel checks tip off the North American same-store sales are slowing. Slumping revenue for the company would be a double-whammy with higher beef prices starting to pressure margins. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Friday, August 10, 2012, 10:55 AM Shares of Wendy's (WEN -3.5%) falter a day after a respectable earnings report. SA author Stock Games crunches the valuation numbers on the stock to conclude that "relatively weak" fundamentals aren't likely to support WEN's current valuations. 1 Comment [On the Move, Consumer]
- Thursday, August 9, 2012, 8:02 AM Wendy's (WEN): Q2 EPS of $0.05 in-line. Revenue of $645.9M (+% Y/Y) misses by $2M. Shares +4.7% premarket. Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Wednesday, July 11, 2012, 12:05 PM This isn't your grandparents' Wendy's (WEN +2.4%) anymore. After maintaining a rather stoic image over the years, the restaurant chain is undergoing a major transformation with lounge seating, flat-screen TVs, Wi-Fi, and digital menu boards all part of the new look. Part of the logic behind the shift is the data suggesting dine-in eaters spend more than drive-through customers. Earlier: (Wedbush upgrade lifts shares) 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]
- Tuesday, May 8, 2012, 10:26 AM Execs at Wendy's (WEN -4.1%) admit to some pricing mistakes on an [[earnings CC]]. While the company raised up the price of a W burger to $3.19, consumers were trading down and spending less. Shouldering in on the competitive premium burger market is viewed as an important long-term strategy for the company. (Earlier: earnings) Comment! [On the Move, Consumer]
- Tuesday, May 8, 2012, 8:23 AM Shares of Wendy's (WEN) fall 3.4% in premarket trading after missing the estimate of analysts with its Q1 report and lowering its outlook for 2012 EBITDA. Hedgeye's Howard Penney says the report is even worse after factoring in that the company changed how it calculates same-store sales in a move that gave it a 30 bp benefit. Comment! [On the Move, Consumer]
- Tuesday, May 8, 2012, 7:17 AM Wendy's Arby's Group (WEN): Q1 EPS of $0.01 misses by $0.02. Revenue of $593M (+1.8% Y/Y) misses by $15M. Shares -4.5% premarket. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Thursday, March 1, 2012, 8:11 AM Wendy's Arby's Group (WEN): Q4 EPS of $0.04 beats by $0.02. Revenue of $615M (+5.6% Y/Y) beats by $6M. Shares +2.2% premarket. (PR) 1 Comment [Earnings, On the Move, Breaking News]
- Wednesday, November 9, 2011, 11:47 AM Wendy's (WEN -3.6%) dips on a wider than expected Q3 net loss, primarily due to related charges from selling most of its Arby's franchise. Better overall pricing and a successful launch of Dave's Hot 'N Juicy cheeseburger boosted the company's bottom line margins, helping to mitigate rising commodity cost pressures and increased marketing expenses. The company reafirms FY11 guidance. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
