Cheesecake Factory (CAKE) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Cheesecake Factory (CAKE) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Cheesecake Factory Inc. has increased its total revenue guidance for 2025 to $3.8 billion, driven by a stronger opening cadence and an anticipated slight increase in menu pricing. The company's North Italia segment has shown significant improvement with adjusted mature restaurant-level margins rising to 18.8%, attributed to operational enhancements and effective menu pricing strategies. Furthermore, strong sales performance, driven by high guest satisfaction and a successful rewards program, positions the company favorably for accelerating comparable sales, improving margins, and harnessing the growth potential of its emerging brands.
Bears say
Cheesecake Factory Inc. has revised its 2025 EPS estimate downward to $3.70, reflecting a cautious outlook influenced by reduced same-store sales (SSS) growth predictions for both The Cheesecake Factory and North Italia segments, with Q1 estimates lowered to 1.5% and 0.0% respectively. Additionally, the company's Q1 revenue guidance of $920-930 million is slightly below consensus expectations, and net income margin forecasts for both Q1 and 2025 are below market consensus figures, indicating potential operational challenges. These adjustments, coupled with broader concerns about consumer foot traffic and economic factors, contribute to an overall negative financial outlook for the company.
