Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Domino's Pizza stock:

• 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Domino's Pizza’s second-quarter 2017 adjusted earnings of $1.32 per share beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 8.2% and climbed 34.7% year over year (y/y) on strong sales and a lower share count. Revenues rose 14.8% y/y to $628.6 million and topped the consensus mark by 2.5%. In fact, the company has been posting positive comps in domestic and international markets over the last several quarters. However, strength in domestic markets was overshadowed by weak international comps growth, particularly in Europe, in this quarter. Nevertheless, initiatives on the digital front, focus on re-imaging and other sales boosting strategies are expected to help regain the momentum. In addition, the company’s shares outpaced the industry year to date. Yet, higher labor costs and expenses related to initiatives might dent margins. Also, soft consumer spending environment in the U.S. restaurants space and adverse forex translation remain concerns." (8/10/2017)
• 2. Instinet analysts commented, "... Domino's reported Q4 EPS of $1.48, exceeding our $1.45 forecast and the Consensus Metrix number of $1.44. The earnings beat was driven by Q4 U.S. same-store sales that were easily the best from any of the 25 largest restaurant chains (as measured by domestic systemwide sales). U.S. company-owned same-store sales rose by +13.7%, ahead of our +10.5% estimate and consensus of +10.5%. U.S. franchised same-store sales climbed by +12.1%, topping our +10.5% projection and consensus of +10.3%. Based on the higher base of earnings coming off of 2016 and exceptional domestic same-store sales momentum, we raise our 2017 EPS estimate by $0.07, to $5.21. We also take up our 2018 EPS forecast by $0.11, to $6.15. These factors also lead us to take up our target multiple from ~17.5x to ~19.0x (on 2017E EV/EBITDA), which raises our target price from $152 to $174. We maintain our Neutral rating on DPZ." (3/1/2017)
• 3. BTIG Research analysts commented, "Domino's continues to widen the gap between itself and other restaurant concepts as its compelling digital advantages and consistent offering drive impressive and significantly above-industry sales results. We expect this momentum to continue as technology and the significant work of the past several years on the brand and the product offering have repositioned Domino's to consumers. While mindful of recent industry trends and the late-January/February sales downturn seen by other concepts (which management wouldn't directly speak to, consistent with practice), we expect Domino's sales will prove to be more resilient than others as recent quarters have demonstrated. We continue to see Domino's as operating in a league of its own among restaurants, we reiterate our Buy rating." (2/28/2017)
