Cheesecake Factory (CAKE) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Cheesecake Factory Inc. has increased its revenue guidance for 2025 to $3.8 billion, driven by an accelerated opening schedule and a modest menu price increase, indicating robust growth potential. The company's North Italia segment has demonstrated significant improvement in mature restaurant-level margins, reaching 18.8%, which reflects operational efficiencies and strategic pricing. With solid consumer demand for its diverse menu offerings and anticipated margin expansions, the company is well-positioned for accelerating same-store sales growth and enhanced profitability in the coming fiscal year.
Bears say
Cheesecake Factory Inc. is facing a negative outlook, as evidenced by a slight reduction in its 2025 EPS estimate from $3.73 to $3.70, hinting at weakened performance expectations. Guidance for same-store sales (SSS) growth has also been lowered, particularly for the North Italia segment, which is anticipated to experience stagnant growth, contributing to overall concerns about consumer foot traffic and potential operational volatility. Additionally, the company's Q1 revenue guidance of $920-930 million is slightly below consensus expectations, with net income margins projected to be lower than anticipated, indicating a challenging financial environment ahead.
