Guzman Y Gomez
Guzman Y Gomez shares first listed on the ASX back in mid-2024 opening at approximately $29 per share.
Following its arrival, the Mexican restaurant chain saw a steady stock price rise as the general sentiment around the company was positive thanks to its growth prospects.
However after hitting more than $43 per share in December 2024, it's been pretty much a steady decline for Guzman Y Gomez shares.
The share price is now down more than 50% since that time, which included a fall of 45% in 2025.
Why the fall?
Although Guzman Y Gomez reported record sales and profit growth in FY2025, the results still came in below what investors and analysts had expected.
Underlying earnings surged 152% to $14 million in fiscal 2025, driven by a 23% increase in global network sales and an expansion in operating margins.
However, investor sentiment was dampened by rising losses in the early-stage US business and a slowdown in Australian sales momentum, which overshadowed the otherwise strong performance.
Where to from here?
Experts are seemingly tipping a rebound based on its current share price.
Guzman Y Gomez shares are hovering around $21.50 at the time of writing.
Last month, Morgans placed a buy rating and $32.30 price target on the Mexican restaurant chain's shares.
From yesterday's stock price, that indicates more than a 50% upside.
Domino's Pizza Enterprises
Dominos Pizza shares were down 50% from yearly highs at one point last year.
After bottoming out around $13 per share, they have now somewhat recovered and are currently trading at around $22.45.
Dominos shares remain down more than 20% over the last 12 months.
The sell off largely came following the company's FY25 financial results.
This included:
- Network sales down 0.9% to $4.15 billion
- Revenue down 3.1% to $2,303.7 million
- EBIT down 4.6% to $198.1 million
In 2025 Dominos also changed CEO.
So after a turbulent year, is there any upside for Dominos shares?
Estimates from analysts are mixed.
On the positive side, Morgans currently has a buy rating and $25.00 price target on Dominos shares.
This indicates an upside of around 11%.
Meanwhile, the average analyst rating on TradingView shows Dominos shares are now overvalued by approximately 11%.
Similarly, online brokerage platform Selfwealth lists Dominos shares as 10% above fair value.
