Domino’s Pizza, Inc. (NASDAQ: DPZ) reported financial results, with an EPS of $4,89 below estimates and revenue falling short.

Domino’s Pizza, Inc. (NASDAQ: DPZ), the world’s largest pizza company, is renowned for its extensive global presence and innovative delivery services. Despite its strong market position, Domino’s recently encountered challenges in its financial performance. The company reported an earnings per share (EPS) of $4,89, below the estimated $4.98. Its revenue of approximately $1.44 trillion fell short of the expected $1.47 trillion.
The mixed financial results have impacted Domino’s stock performance. The company’s stock experienced a decline following the earnings report, reflecting investor concerns. The underperformance in U.S. same-store sales, which grew by only 0.4% compared to the expected 1.5%, contributed to the revenue miss. This has led to a negative reaction in the stock market, with shares dropping by 5%.
Despite the challenges in domestic sales, Domino’s international operations showed resilience. International same-store sales increased by 2.7%, surpassing the expected 1.7% growth. CEO Russell Weiner emphasized the company’s 31st consecutive year of international same-store sales growth, even amid a challenging global macroeconomic environment. This international strength highlights Domino’s ability to adapt and grow in diverse markets.
Domino’s also reported a global net store growth of 364 new locations in the fourth quarter and 775 for the fiscal year. Income from operations rose by 6.4% in the fourth quarter and 7.3% for the fiscal year, excluding foreign currency impacts. The company’s Board of Directors approved a 15% increase in the quarterly dividend, raising it to $1.74 per share, underscoring its financial strength.
Financial metrics reveal a complex picture for Domino’s. The company has a low price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of approximately 0.09 and a price-to-sales ratio of about 0.01, indicating a low market valuation relative to earnings and sales. The negative debt-to-equity ratio of approximately -0.58 indicates more liabilities than equity, while a current ratio of about 0.56 suggests potential challenges in covering short-term liabilities.
