Sweetgreen (SG) News Today

Sweetgreen, Inc. (SG) — Shares are down today after fresh analyst moves and guidance/estimate revisions that reduce visible near-term upside. Trading volume is above average, suggesting the reaction reflects investor repositioning after the analyst notes.

• Positive Sentiment: William Blair still rates Sweetgreen “Outperform,” which provides some institutional support even as it trimmed forecasts; that keeps a potential upside narrative alive for investors. Article
• Neutral Sentiment: Zacks and MarketBeat note the stock’s intraday weakness and higher-than-normal volume — confirmation the move is broad-based rather than a single trade. Zacks
• Neutral Sentiment: MSN summarized analyst commentary on why SG is falling today, pointing to the same research-note drivers pressuring the stock. Article
• Negative Sentiment: Barclays cut its price target from $10 to $8 and kept an “Equal-Weight” rating, leaving only about a token upside versus the current price — a direct headwind for investor sentiment. MarketBeat / Barclays note
• Negative Sentiment: William Blair reduced FY2025–FY2027 and Q4 EPS estimates (e.g., FY2025 to ~$-0.76), signaling weaker near-term profitability expectations and contributing to the selloff. Article
• Negative Sentiment: Analyst price-target cuts plus lowered EPS forecasts tighten the risk/reward and likely explain today’s downward move; investors will watch upcoming comps, margin trends and any company guidance for signs of stabilization. Benzinga
