- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Del Frisco's Restaurant Group, LLC develops, owns and operates three contemporary, complementary restaurant concepts: Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House, Sullivan's Steakhouse and Del Frisco's Grille. The restaurants offer selections that include steaks, lobster tails, lamb chops and fresh seafood, as well as an extensive wine selection. Del Frisco's Restaurant Group, LLC is headquartered in Wichita, Kansas. " (8/6/2018)
- 2. Canaccord Genuity analysts commented, "We are encouraged by the traction from DFRG’s new top-line programs and margin initiatives at the Double Eagle and Grille in Q4. However, visibility remains limited as Q1 comp guidance was disappointing (down 4-5%) driven by weather and calendar shifts. In addition, ’18 EPS guidance was below Street projections driven in large part by higher than expected pre-opening expenses from expected new unit openings in ’18 and 1H19. We remain on the sidelines with a HOLD rating. Our price target remains $16, reflecting ~7.5x our new 2019 EBITDA estimate of $48.7 million." (3/9/2018)
