Wall Street Analysts Think Wingstop (WING) Is a Good Investment: Is It?
Investors often turn to recommendations made by Wall Street analysts before making a Buy, Sell, or Hold decision about a stock. While media reports about rating changes by these brokerage-firm employed (or sell-side) analysts often affect a stock's price, do they really matter?

I am upgrading Wingstop stock to a "buy" with a $396 price target, representing a 70% upside potential after the stock has retracted from its highs from revenue deceleration. Despite tougher comps, the management is confident in achieving $3M AUV and expanding to 10,000 locations globally as it invests in digital transformation, brand awareness, and menu innovation. Meanwhile, the company has seen its digital sales grow to 70% of system-wide sales, as they drive personalized offers to drive higher volume and purchase frequency.

Wingstop: With Sharp Deceleration In Same-Store Sales, A Correction Is Beginning
Shares of Wingstop slid ~15% after reporting a rare Q4 earnings miss. Same-store sales growth decelerated sharply to 10% y/y (from 21% in the previous quarter), and is expected to decline to the low/mid-single digits in FY25. Macro conditions and price increases risk alienating customers, while secular trends towards healthier eating challenge Wingstop's market position.

Compared to Estimates, Wingstop (WING) Q4 Earnings: A Look at Key Metrics
While the top- and bottom-line numbers for Wingstop (WING) give a sense of how the business performed in the quarter ended December 2024, it could be worth looking at how some of its key metrics compare to Wall Street estimates and year-ago values.

Wingstop Inc. Reports Fiscal Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2024 Financial Results
Record 349 Net New Restaurants and 15.8% Unit Growth in 2024 Delivers 21st Consecutive Year of Same Store Sales Growth with 19.9% in 2024 DALLAS , Feb. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Wingstop Inc. ("Wingstop" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: WING) today announced financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 28, 2024. Highlights for the fiscal fourth quarter 2024 compared to the fiscal fourth quarter 2023: System-wide sales increased 27.6% to $1.2 billion 105 net new openings in the fiscal fourth quarter 2024 Domestic restaurant AUV increased to $2.1 million Domestic same store sales increased 10.1% Digital sales increased to 70.3% of system-wide sales Total revenue increased 27.4% to $161.8 million Net income increased 42.2% to $26.8 million, or $0.92 per diluted share Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased 44.2% to $56.3 million Highlights for the fiscal year 2024 compared to the fiscal year 2023: System-wide sales increased 36.8% to $4.8 billion 349 net new openings in fiscal year 2024 System-wide restaurant count increased 15.8% to 2,563 worldwide locations Domestic same store sales increased 19.9% Total revenue increased 36.0% to $625.8 million Net income increased 54.9% to $108.7 million, or $3.70 per diluted share Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased 44.8% to $212.1 million Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure.

Wingstop Q4 Preview: Looming Weaknesses Outweigh Growth Potential (Downgrade)
Wingstop Inc.'s Q4 performance should show rapid revenue growth as the company's franchise continues to grow. Negatively, industry-wide sales suggest a slowdown in December, and lower consumer confidence in early 2025 could lead to a weaker outlook ahead. Rising food costs add to Wingstop's negative catalysts. With concerns over Wingstop's performance, especially with margins, I believe that WING stock provides a weak risk-to-reward. I estimate -17% downside to a fair value of $251.9.
