Bucking the 'Value Meal' Trend

Chipotle, alongside "fast casual" peers like Sweetgreen (SG), has not joined the 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:"value meal" trend like many fast food restaurants. Analysts 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:have suggested that Chipotle hasn't felt the same pressure as others like McDonald's () to lower prices, allowing the company to sustain revenue growth amid a difficult 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:consumer spending environment.

"The second quarter was outstanding as successful brand marketing, including the return of Chicken Al Pastor, drove strong demand to our restaurants," Chipotle CEO Brian Niccol said, adding that the restaurant's "focus and training around throughput paid off as we were able to meet the stronger demand trends."

The results marked Chipotle's first earnings report since its 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:stock split last month.
