Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Jack In The Box stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Jack in the Box makes regular menu innovations and plans to continue focusing on improving guest experience at both brands via operational excellence. It has a mostly positive record of earnings surprises in recent quarters. The premium and value offerings at Jack in the Box along with focus on breakfast menu to combat competition bode well. Yet, comps at Qdoba have been suffering due to poor restaurant level execution. A soft industry backdrop and higher costs remain concerns too. Notably, Jack in the Box’s shares have underperformed the Zacks categorized Retail-Restaurants industry year-to-date. Estimates too have moved slightly down ahead of its fiscal third quarter earnings release. Nonetheless, expansion of third-party delivery channels at both brands should increase transactions. Efforts to reinvigorate Qdoba along with management’s plan of even considering alternatives to the brand bode well too." (7/18/2017)
