Sweetgreen (SG) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Sweetgreen (SG) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Sweetgreen Inc. is positioned for a favorable financial outlook, driven by expectations of sustained top-line growth and improving operational efficiency, which will contribute to its path to profitability. The company is projected to increase its restaurant margins, currently at 17.5% in 2023, potentially surpassing the previous peak of 19% in 2014 due to enhanced average unit volumes (AUV) and strategic initiatives such as menu innovations. Additionally, the anticipated success of its Infinite Kitchens concept is expected to boost restaurant margins further, allowing Sweetgreen to confidently pursue unit growth in the coming years, thereby solidifying its market position and enhancing profitability.
Bears say
The analysis indicates a negative outlook for Sweetgreen's stock due to disappointing same-store sales (SSS) figures, which fell 190 basis points below expectations for the fourth quarter and suggest a weaker trend for 2025. Additionally, both revenue and EBITDA estimates have been revised downward for the upcoming periods, largely attributed to sluggish growth in key markets and adverse impacts from weather conditions and holiday timing. Furthermore, the lowering of restaurant-level margin expectations, from 21.3% to 20.4%, is expected to further suppress EBITDA forecasts, resulting in a projected decline from $70.0 million to $64.0 million.
