Domino's Pizza, Inc. (DPZ-N) is navigating a challenging environment marked by a decrease in consumer spending. Despite facing difficulties post-earnings, where same-store sales fell short of expectations, experts note that the company is well-positioned to capture market share. With a resilient 3% same-store sales growth in the U.S., outperforming competitors like Pizza Hut, Domino's maintains its competitive edge by keeping prices lower, thanks to its integrated delivery model. The company has been actively buying back shares, reducing its total by 38% since 2015, but its stock performance has been volatile in recent years. Experts suggest that by continuing to offer strong value to consumers, Domino's can regain its status as a market leader, with an analyst price target of $475.58 indicating potential upside.

Papa John's, PZZA

BUY

Perfectly set up for the pandemic, since the company is designed for delivery. They've kept their customers after the pandemic, too. Domestic same-store sales in the latest quarter rose 3%. Domino's honed their touchless drop-off service. Shares just keep rising. A winner.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Mar 02/21, Up 22.2%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our PAST TOP PICK with DPZ has achieved its $424 target. To remain disciplined, we recommend covering 50% of the position and trailing up the stop to $350 -- just above our recommended entry level. This would all but guarantee a minimum investment return of 11%.

BUY

Allan Tong’s Discover Picks Domino‘s benefits from scattering locations around the globe, so it’s not tied to Canada. About 17,600 stores operate in 90 countries, and the U.S. (with 6,355 locations) accounted for more than half of global sales in 2020 at US$8.3 billion compared to US$7.8 billion outside those borders. (There are 541 Domino’s in Canada.) Domino’s relies on e-commerce to thrive. In fact, last year, over 65% of sales came from digital ordering in the U.S., according to the company’s Q2 2020 conference call. More than 90% of its international locations offer online ordering. DPZ stock’s trades at 30.23x earnings and pays a 1% dividend yield, based on a 25.18% payout ratio, far lower and safer than’s PZA stock’s.

TOP PICK

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Last October we identified DPZ as a BUY ON WEAKNESS candidate if it traded back down towards $345. It has achieved our target and so we are recommending to buy with a stop-loss at $300, looking to target $424 -- upside potential over 23%. It pays a small dividend, backed by a payout ratio of 33%. EPS grew by 30% last year and is expected to grow 12% annually over the next five years. It trades at 30x earnings, just under peers at 35x in the same space. Almost 90% of the stock is held by institutions, who are likely to show good holding power. Yield 0.9% (Analysts’ price target is $423.85)

WAIT

Fantastic pandemic winner. With vaccines, has now fallen below 200-day moving average. Technically, doesn't look good. Death cross. Earnings expectations are OK, not fantastic, with its more lofty PE. Wait on the sidelines for better news.

BUY

They deliver food contactless and do it well. Great now in the time of lockdowns.

BUY

Like Chipotle, they're a fast food chain that has adapted to Covid, and they will survive the winter lockdown. They rely on food delivery and hardly offer dine-in.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly DPZ missed its last earnings target due to temporary increases in supply costs for labour and food resulting from the pandemic. However, the drivers that pushed to stock to previous highs still exists. As the next wave of the pandemic sets in, you can bet sales will benefit as people choose order out. We would buy this on weakness near $345. Yield 0.79% (Analysts’ price target is $435.40)

BUY

Part of his Fear Factor portfolio of stocks that will thrive with or without government stimulus during Covid They've turned contactless delivery into a science, leaving your pizza on a pedestal. You pay online.

BUY

You buy pizzas on your phone or watch, no human contact and contactless. Safe during Covid. It has staying power.

TOP PICK

The company benefitted from the pandemic. Their takeout and delivery business is doing well. A technology company with smart loyalty and ordering system. A good royalty business. (Analysts’ price target is $424.92)

BUY

Technology is their secret ingredient. They need to know their customer. They are light-years ahead of their competition. It is still very attractive. He thinks they will add more stores.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Apr 04/19, Up 46%) They had a terrific quarter before COVID-19. The company is so well positioned during and after COVID. They need to hire more employees and drivers. Who is not getting sick of their spouse's cooking?

BUY

Domino's vs. QSR No idea which one will perform better going forward. But he bets that Domino's will expand from 16,000 worldwide stores to 25,000 in the next five years. The company projects 7-12% earnings growth. Pizza is a very good business. Domino's has smart managers. QSR will do fine, but he'd rather buy Starbucks or McDonald's.

BUY

Domino Pizza vs. QSR Domino's was a darling for 8 years, then went sideways, then turned around in a bad market. So, it's attractive now. This morning, there were fears that the stock would get hammered, but they finished the day positive. (They just issued weak guidance.) QSR is better because it has more diversified restaurants. Own both.
