- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Shares of Chipotle have outperformed the industry over the past year. We expect the company to remain on this growth trajectory after fourth-quarter 2018 earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Adjusted earnings grew 28.4% from the year-ago quarter, driven by higher revenues and lower food costs. Despite having a good share of negative publicity from a food-borne illness, Chipotle’s viable business strategy and the appointment of Brian Niccol significantly helped in 2018. For 2019, management expects comps to grow in the mid-single-digit range and expects to open 140-155 restaurants. Chipotle's increased focus on food safety and enhancing customer experience, along with various sales-building initiatives, is likely to drive the top line while high costs and intense competition may be concerning in the future."
