FWRG Latest News
First Watch Restaurant Group maintains its stance against value promotions, focusing on targeted advertising, resulting in a 1.9% year-over-year decline in comparable sales due to lower traffic. The company is aggressively expanding by acquiring franchises and opening new restaurants, aiming for 10% net year-over-year growth and a long-term goal of 2,200 locations. Hurricanes in key operating areas significantly impacted Q4 traffic, but recovery is expected as headwinds subside, with a focus on improving on-premise sales.

Shares of First Watch Restaurant Group Inc (FWRG, Financial) fell 4.33% in mid-day trading on Oct 2. The stock reached an intraday low of $14.31, before recovering slightly to $14.37, down from its previous close of $15.02.
First Watch Restaurant Group's Q2 showed a considerable traffic decline, but solid underlying earnings growth from a growing scale and upkept pricing. First Watch adjusted its 2024 guidance to reflect weaker expected traffic, but the guidance shift is still likely a sign of weak industry traffic instead of company-specific weakness. Despite present risks in the investment case, FWRG's stock now represents an attractive risk-to-reward at a lower price.
