  • Chipotle Q4 Sales Decline and Flat 2026 Outlook Weigh on Shares
    February 3, 2026, 4:58 PM EST. Chipotle (CMG) reported a 2.5% decline in same-store sales for Q4 2023, slightly better than Wall Street's 2.9% forecast, driven by higher menu prices amid fewer transactions. The company posted adjusted EPS of $0.25 and revenue of $2.98 billion, marginally above estimates. CEO Scott Boatwright attributed the performance to a "dynamic consumer backdrop" impacting key demographics, notably 25- to 35-year-olds facing economic challenges such as loan repayment and slow wage growth. Chipotle forecasts flat same-store sales growth in 2026, below the 1.8% rise analysts expected, causing shares to drop nearly 4% in after-hours trading. The firm is focusing on menu innovation and marketing strategies amid executive changes, seeking to navigate ongoing volatility in consumer trends.
