Wingstop Inc.周二股价盘中一度暴跌22.05%,创下近4年来最大单日跌幅。据分析,投资者对该公司最新季报中业绩利润未及预期感到失望所致。
尽管Wingstop第三季度收入仍保持5%的同比增长,达1.625亿美元,略高于预期,但收入增长的光环却被利润数据大大冲击。该公司第三季度净利润仅为2749万美元,每股收益0.88美元,远低于市场平均预期的0.95美元。
导致利润大幅下滑的主要原因是公司总成本和费用同比猛增42%,涨幅远超收入增速。数据显示,该公司在食品、劳工和其他运营支出上均面临较大通胀压力,上游成本上涨难以完全消化。而Wingstop连锁经营模式的特点,也令成本上升的风险通过供应链传导至整个系统。
值得关注的是,Wingstop已连续两个季度出现业绩利润不及预期的情况。这反映了企业在业务高速发展的同时,成本控制和盈利能力方面仍面临着严峻的挑战。如何在当前高通胀环境下保持利润率和盈利水平,将是该公司管理层需要着重关注的难题。
