DARDEN RESTAURANTS INC

Darden Restaurants

Darden Restaurants is the largest restaurant operator in the US full-service space, with consolidated revenue of $11.4 billion in fiscal 2024 resulting in 3%-4% full-service market share (per NRA data and our calculations). The company maintains a portfolio of 11 restaurant brands: Olive Garden, LongHorn Steakhouse, Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen, Ruth's Chris, Yard House, The Capital Grille, Seasons 52, Eddie V's, Bahama Breeze, The Capital Burger, and most recently, Chuy's. Darden generates revenue almost exclusively from company-owned restaurants, though a small network of franchised restaurants and consumer-packaged goods sales through the traditional grocery channel contribute modestly. As of the end of its fiscal 2024, the company operated 2,031 restaurants in the US.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Darden Restaurants's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Darden Restaurants's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.78%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Barclays Maintains Overweight on Darden Restaurants, Raises Price Target to $235

Darden Restaurants Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DRI#NYSE">DRI</a>) reported its third-quarter earnings yesterday. Sales of $3.158 billion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/44416210">missed the consensus estimate.</a>
The following are the comments from different analysts regarding the company&#8217;s performance.
Oppenheimer analyst Brian Bittner reiterated an Outperform rating on the shares and raised the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DRI/analyst-ratings">price forecast from $218.00 to $230.00.</a>
The analyst is optimistic that DRI&#8217;s fiscal 2026 will provide catalysts for growth, surpassing conservative Street expectations. Following a mixed third quarter, same-store sales trends for the fourth quarter have picked up, now exceeding 3% (compared to the Street&#8217;s 2.5%), even before the implementation of enhanced marketing efforts tied to Olive Garden&#8217;s new delivery service.
After a thorough review of the model, the analyst has slightly raised the EPS projections through 2026E (25E/&#8217; 26E EPS to $9.50/$10.77 from $9.48/$10.74), with the potential for further upward revisions.
The analyst notes that a combination of new sales drivers and overly cautious margin projections will set the stage for positive revisions in the next 12 months.

Wedbush analyst Nick Setyan reiterated an Outperform rating on the shares and raised the price target from $220.00 to $235.00.
Despite weather-related challenges affecting same-store sales growth, EPS showed upside, said the analyst.
The analyst notes the upper range of EPS guidance is achievable. The fourth-quarter EPS guidance is $2.88–2.95, compared to the consensus of $2.93.
With expected commodity inflation around 3%, labor inflation around 3.5%, menu pricing increases of approximately 2% at Olive Garden and 3% at LongHorn, and visibility for additional SSS growth, the analyst considers the higher end of the EPS range realistic.
TD Securities analyst Andrew Charles&nbsp;reiterated a Hold rating on the shares and raised the price forecast from $180.00 to $190.00.
Darden&#8217;s shares reacted positively to the fourth-quarter same-store sales guidance of 3%+, which is currently tracking at that level.
The company is benefiting from a spring rebound in full-service dining after weather-impacted months. However, given soft consumer sentiment, the analyst is less confident in the rebound&#8217;s longevity.
The analyst seeks more proof that Darden&#8217;s strategies to boost Olive Garden will lead to market share growth despite the premium valuation of its shares.
While the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/44417951" rel="noreferrer noopener">Uber Direct partnership </a>is contributing a 1%-1.25% lift to Olive Garden&#8217;s SSS, the peak 13x FY2 EV/EBITDA suggests a $230/share price, indicating a better risk/reward opportunity in other sector stocks.
Stephens &amp; Co. analyst Jim Salera reiterated an Equal Weight on the shares and raised the price forecast from $175.00 to $178.00.
Darden reported same-store sales below expectations but beat on adjusted EPS. Weather and holiday timing would have resulted in a sales beat, said the analyst.
Investors were encouraged by Darden reaffirming its FY25 same-store sales guidance, supported by strong March trends.
While the analyst remains positive on the company&#8217;s operational execution and scale, the current valuation is fully priced.
Price Action: DRI shares traded higher by 0.32% at $199.65 at last check Friday.

U.S. stock futures declined on Friday after tumbling in trade on Thursday. Futures of all four benchmark indices were lower in premarket trading.
While Jerome Powell&#8216;s comments on tariff-induced &#8220;transitory&#8221; inflation buoyed the market on Wednesday, the concerns about the projections of higher inflation and lower economic growth dampened the markets on Thursday.
However, the &#8220;dot plot&#8221; still projected two rate cuts in 2025, maintaining the Fed&#8217;s initial forecast.
The 10-year Treasury yield stood at 4.22%, while the two-year yield was at 3.94%. According to the CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.htm">tool</a>, there is an 83.8% chance that the Federal Reserve will keep the interest rates unchanged during its May meeting.

Cues From The Last Session
Only energy, utilities, financials, and healthcare sectors advanced on Thursday, whereas materials, consumer staples, and information technology sectors led the decline.
Darden Restaurants Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DRI#NYSE">DRI</a>) shares rose 6% on strong earnings, while Accenture Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACN#NYSE">ACN</a>) fell 7% due to lower-than-expected guidance.
U.S. jobless claims rose slightly, indicating a stable March labor market, but rising trade tensions and government spending cuts cloud the outlook. Longer unemployment durations were also noted. Philadelphia Fed manufacturing, while still expanding, slowed in March, falling to 12.5, though exceeding forecasts.
February U.S. home sales rose to 4.26 million units, exceeding forecasts, as supply increased, though economic uncertainty poses a risk. Meanwhile, the U.S. Leading Economic Index fell 0.3% in February, continuing a decline, but the six-month pace of decline slowed significantly.
As of Thursday, the Nasdaq 100 remains in correction territory, having fallen 11.45% from its prior peak. Similarly, the Dow Jones and S&amp;P 500 have dropped 6.92% and 7.88%, respectively, from their 52-week highs.

Insights From Analysts
Analysts at BlackRock said that markets were doubting U.S. growth and equity strength. &#8220;Yet economic conditions don't signal a downturn. Resilient earnings keep us overweight U.S. stocks.&#8221;
The note added that the recent volatility was exacerbated by policy uncertainty and investors moving out of crowded positions.
According to them, &#8220;Over time, deleveraging will have run its course, and uncertainty will likely ease as we get more policy implementation details, such as the White House's full tariff plan due in April.&#8221;
&#8220;We think the biggest risk to U.S. growth is prolonged policy uncertainty. U.S. stocks could face more near-term pressure, but we stay overweight on our tactical horizon. We stay underweight long-term Treasuries as we see yields rising,&#8221; the note stated.
Louis Navellier of Navellier &amp; Associates reiterated that he expects four rate cuts in 2025. &#8220;I am anticipating global interest rates to crash due to the fact that economic growth in Asia is weak, while Britain, Canada, France, Germany, and Mexico are all in the midst of economic contractions. As a result, I am expecting that the Bank of England, the European Central Bank, and other central banks to continue to slash key interest rates, which in turn, will cause Treasury yields to decline. And since the Fed does not fight market rates, four key interest rate cuts are still on the table,&#8221; he said.
Meanwhile, Ryan Detrick of Carson Research highlighted that all bear markets start with a correction, but not all corrections turn into a bear market.
He highlighted historical data where 13 of the previous 39 corrections turned into bear markets. &#8216;
