CAVA: A Great Growth Story, But Fairly Priced
Published: July 11, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive
CAVA is a great growth story with rapid restaurant expansion, strong same-store sales, and a robust balance sheet fueling further growth. CAVA's unique position as the leading Mediterranean chain in the U.S. gives it first-mover advantages and a significant runway for expansion. Valuation is fair after the recent dip, but I would buy on a pullback in the high 70s-low 80s range with a larger margin of safety.

CAVA Group: Industry-Leading Growth In Q1 Raises Long-Term Questions
Published: June 05, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive
CAVA's explosive growth and industry-leading margins mirror Chipotle, but the current valuation is extremely rich at 7.6x 2025 sales and 136x earnings. Sustaining double-digit same-store sales growth is unlikely; I expect normalization to 3%-6% in 2026, which will slow overall revenue growth. CAVA's premium valuation assumes continued outperformance, but investors aren't pricing in a potential slowdown or the impact of taxes on earnings.
