KRUS Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Kura Sushi USA Inc. demonstrates a strong financial outlook driven by a favorable comparable sales outlook, improving restaurant-level margins, and sustained annual unit growth of 20%. The company's new store productivity has reportedly improved for two consecutive quarters, with the class of 2025 performing stronger than that of 2024, and same-store sales have accelerated month-to-month in the third quarter due to easing comparisons and successful collaborations. Furthermore, the targeted growth rate of over 20% for net restaurant expansion is notably higher than other full-service restaurants, supported by robust cash-on-cash returns of 33%, indicating a healthy trajectory for the company.
Bears say
Kura Sushi USA Inc. has reported a decline in same-store sales (SSS) of 2.1%, influenced by a 2.9% drop in customer traffic, which raises concerns about future growth prospects. The company forecasts flat SSS for fiscal year 2026, reflecting broader challenges including anticipated macroeconomic deterioration and the risk of increased inflation on labor and commodities, which could further pressure earnings. Additionally, there are concerns regarding new store economics and the potential negative effects of tariffs, which have led to a downward revision of the company’s projected adjusted EBITDA for 2026.
