Restaurant Stock Q3 Earnings On Nov 1: PZZA, DIN, WING, TXRH

 | Oct 30, 2016 09:29PM ET

The Q3 earnings season is now in full swing with releases from 291 S&P 500 members (as of Oct 28), per the latest Earnings Preview .

Notably, the widely popular restaurant industry has been grabbing much of the spotlight of late. However, the performance of the restaurant stocks has been far from impressive so far.

Among the restaurant behemoths that have already reported their numbers, McDonald’s Corporation (NYSE:MCD) and Domino’s Pizza Inc. (NYSE:DPZ) posted robust results beating earnings and revenue estimates.

Though Yum! Brands, Inc.’s (NYSE:YUM) earnings were in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate, revenues failed to surpass the same. Dunkin’ Brands Group (NASDAQ:DNKN) also missed top-line expectations.

Two other key players, BJ’s Restaurants, Inc. (NASDAQ:BJRI) and Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE:CMG) , posted disappointing results wherein both earnings and sales missed estimates.

We thus note that a soft consumer spending environment in the U.S. restaurant space, which is leading to lower traffic and comps, is turning out to be a major headwind for the top line.

A number of restaurateurs are set to report their quarterly numbers on Nov 1. Let’s take a look at what might be in store for these companies:

World’s third-largest pizza delivery company Papa John’s International, Inc. (NASDAQ:PZZA) recorded a positive earnings surprise of 12.96% last quarter. In fact, the company posted positive earnings surprises in each of the past four quarters, with an average beat of 7.81%.
