"On Wednesday, Chipotle reported its Q3 2025 earnings after the bell. Some of what the company revealed has alarmed investors. But first, here are the company's most critical quarterly metrics: Total revenue: $3 billion (a 7.5% increase) Comparable restaurant sales: up 0.3% Operating margin: 15.9% (down 1% point) Adjusted diluted earnings per share: $0.29 (up 7.4%) Stores opened: 84 As noted by CNBC, Chipotle's adjusted EPS of 29 cents matched investor expectations, and its $3 billion in revenue came close to the $3.03 billion expected by LSEG analysts."
"After reporting its relatively expected Q3 results, Chipotle issued its full fiscal 2025 forecast, revealing that it was cutting its sales outlook. For the full fiscal year (the company is now in its Q4 2025), Chipotle says it expects "full year comparable restaurant sales declines in the low-single digit range." This is the third time in a row that the restaurant chain has cut its sales forecasts."
