Denny's Corp

Tech giant NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/03/37879478/humble-beginnings-like-nvidia-reddit-was-founded-inside-a-restaurant">was founded in a Denny's </a>restaurant by friends Jensen Huang, Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem.
Today, the company is worth more than 3 trillion and Huang is one of the richest people in the world.
What Happened: The connection between Denny's Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DENN#NASDAQ">DENN</a>) and Nvidia will remain a part of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/05/45482864/nvidias-jensen-huang-doesnt-want-you-to-order-a-shake-at-dennys-get-a-coke-he-says">the company's history, </a>with the company being founded at a restaurant location in California.
Huang also previously worked as a dishwasher, busboy and waiter at Denny's, with his LinkedIn <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenhsunhuang/">profile </a>famously listing his work experience at Denny's from 1978 to 1983 and his role as Founder and CEO of NVIDIA from 1993 to present.
While the two companies are historically connected, their stock performance over the last few decades is extremely different and disconnected.
Denny's stock, which went public in 1997, has fallen 45% in the last year, is down 64% over the last five years and is down over 50% since going public.
Nvidia stock, which<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/25/01/43140861/if-you-invested-1000-in-nvidia-stock-at-ipo-heres-how-much-youd-have-today-2"> went public in 1999</a>, is up 21% over the last year, up over 1,400% over the last five years and a top performer since going public with gains of over 334,000%.
With the increase in Nvidia's stock price, the wealth of Huang has also risen.
Today, the Nvidia CEO is the 12th richest person in the world worth $122 billion, as reported by <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/?sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg</a>. While Huang has a ways to go ($24 billion) to re-enter the top 10 list, he is worth significantly more than many people around the world and worth more than many companies.
In fact, Huang is now worth 604.9x Denny&#8217;s current market capitalization ($201.7 million), a multiple that could bring the connection between the two companies full circle.

Why It's Important: A company founded by friends inside a Denny's booth is now worth more than $3 trillion and the company's CEO is 604.9x richer than the value of the entire Denny's restaurant company.
Huang has often recalled the famous breakfast meeting with the other Nvidia co-founders that led to the company's creation.
&#8220;It had all the coffee you could drink and no one could chase you out,&#8221; Huang recalled of the Denny&#8217;s meeting.
The famous Denny&#8217;s location also paid tribute to its connections to the business launch, with a plaque unveiled in September 2023.
Huang&nbsp;<a href="https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/nvidia-dennys-trillion/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">visited&nbsp;</a>the Denny&#8217;s location in 2023 and recalled the famous meeting while speaking with Denny&#8217;s CEO&nbsp;Kelli Valade.
&#8220;Denny&#8217;s has taught me so many lessons,&#8221; Huang said.
The Nvidia co-founder recalled having his first job at a Denny&#8217;s in Portland when he was 15 years old.
&#8220;I was a dishwasher, I was a busboy, I waited tables. No one can carry more coffee cups than I can.&#8221;
Huang encouraged people to get their first job in the restaurant business.
&#8220;It teaches you humility, it teaches you hard work, it teaches you hospitality.&#8221;
The three co-founders dreamed up the idea of creating a chip that would help make 3D graphics realistic on personal computers.
The plaque reads &#8220;the booth that launched a $1 trillion company.&#8221;
A post on X<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/37299226/alexis-ohanian-says-jensen-huangs-trillion-dollar-nvidia-brainwave-at-dennys-is-better-than-his-bill" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;highlighted the connection&nbsp;</a>between Nvidia and Denny&#8217;s.
&#8220;Nvidia was founded during a breakfast meeting at Denny&#8217;s. Today, Nvidia makes more money in four hours than Denny&#8217;s makes in a year,&#8221; Jon Ehrlichman tweeted in February 2024.

<li>CNN reports that casual dining chains are in crisis, as evidenced by a 0.9% drop in sales over 2024</li>
<li>One contributing factor to the decline is rising prices, which have gone up by 34% over the last five years</li>
<li>Meanwhile, fast-casual restaurants have seen a 0.6% increase in sales, and fast food restaurants have seen a 1% increase in sales</li>
</ul>
Casual dining chains, a staple of the American restaurant industry, are facing a crisis, according to <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/04/business/hooters-red-lobster-tgi-fridays/index.html">CNN</a>. Four well-known establishments—TGI Fridays, Red Lobster, Hooters and Buca di Beppo— have iled for bankruptcy in the last few months. And several others, like Applebee's, Denny's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DENN#NASDAQ">DENN</a>), Outback Steakhouse, Bonefish Grill, Red Robin Gourmet Burger.(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RRGB#NASDAQ">RRGB</a>), and Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CBRL#NASDAQ">CBRL</a>), have seen a sharp drop in sales.&nbsp;
This downturn, CNN reports, is due to a number of factors, including hiking prices, shrinking incomes, and general mismanagement.

<li>Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/boxabl"> this is your last chance to become an investor for $0.80 per share.</a></li>
<li>If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/arrived-private-credit-fund">7-9% target yield with monthly dividends would you invest in it</a>?</li>
</ul>
Chains like Red Robin and TGI Fridays have long been favorites among lower and middle-income families who want a sit-down dinner without a several-hundred-dollar price tag. But as disposable incomes shrink and the threat of a recession increases, CNN says, these diners find themselves less willing to spring for a full meal out. Instead, they're opting to cook at home or visit fast food and fast casual chains like McDonald&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>) and Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>).&nbsp;
Data from the <a href="https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/CUUR0000SEFV">US Bureau of Labor Statistics</a> also shows that restaurant prices have increased 34% since 2019, outpacing the overall growth of inflation. This has undoubtedly played a role in the 0.9% drop in sales at casual dining chains in 2024, that CNN reports, as well as the 0.6% and 1% increases at fast casual and fast food chains, respectively, where prices are already more affordable.
Trending: Deloitte's fastest-growing software company partners with Amazon, Walmart &amp; Target – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">Many are rushing to grab 4,000 of its pre-IPO shares for just $0.26/share!</a>
But shrinking incomes and rising prices aren't the only reasons these dining institutions are struggling. Strategy mistakes and a reluctance to invest in location and service updates have also marred the chains' once-bright futures. For example, Hooters' racy atmosphere and reputation have become less appealing to diners over the few years, contributing to decreased sales. One of its prospective buyers recently told <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2025-03-27/hooters-bankruptcy-founders-to-welcome-families-end-bikini-nights?embedded-checkout=true">Bloomberg</a> it intends to give the establishment a family-friendly makeover. Only time will tell if the revamp will be enough or too little, too late.&nbsp;
Clarence Otis Jr., a former CEO of Darden Restaurants (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DRI#NYSE">DRI</a>), told CNN the struggling chains "got dated in terms of their menu offering, the look and feel of the restaurants, and how they reach consumers."&nbsp;
See Also: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
While many chain restaurants are struggling, a few have managed to find the right recipe. Chili's, Olive Garden, and Texas Roadhouse (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXRH#NASDAQ">TXRH</a>) are all seeing rising profits, thanks to their investments in labor and facilities and their dedication to keeping prices low, according to CNN.&nbsp;
Chili's, CNN says, has invested $400 million into their restaurants, simplifying the menu, adding more staff, and renovating existing locations. As a result, it's gone viral on social media apps like TikTok and has increased sales by 31% over the last quarter, its third consecutive quarter of double-digit sales growth.&nbsp;
"There's a widening gap between winners and losers in the casual dining category," and "brands that are investing in labor and the quality of guest experience are winning," Raymond James analyst Brian Voccaro told CNN.&nbsp;

Shares of stocks within the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading higher. The sector may be trading up amid the release of better-than-expected ADP employment data.

Egg prices have been all over the news lately, and for good reason. The cost of a dozen eggs hit $4.95 in January, almost double what it was a year earlier at $2.52, according to<a href="https://www.ers.usda.gov/"> </a>the <a href="https://www.bls.gov/charts/consumer-price-index/consumer-price-index-average-price-data.htm">U.S Bureau of Labour Statistics.</a> It's wild to think how something as basic as eggs could suddenly become a luxury item.&nbsp;
The situation has gotten so serious that Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/the-u-s-plans-to-import-more-eggs-will-that-help-tame-rising-prices-71839968">recently announced</a> that the government is considering temporarily importing eggs to help consumers catch a break. The idea is more of a short-term fix rather than a long-term solution.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Really Going On?</h2>
<a href="https://www.usda.gov/about-usda/news/press-releases/2025/02/26/usda-invests-1-billion-combat-avian-flu-and-reduce-egg-prices">The approach to fixing the egg shortage</a> isn't just about bringing in more from other countries. There's talk of loosening some regulations that have made it tough for domestic farmers to ramp up production.&nbsp;
On top of that, there's a push to invest more in biosecurity to keep poultry safe from disease. Efforts to rebuild the laying hen population are also in motion, along with research into better vaccines and treatments.&nbsp;
These steps are meant to help stabilize the industry over time, even though the immediate concern is simply getting more eggs onto store shelves.

One of the biggest factors behind the price spike is the ongoing avian flu outbreak. Since early 2022, over 160 million birds have been culled,<a href="https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/data-map-commercial.html"> </a>according to <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-why-the-u-s-is-not-working-to-vaccinate-birds-against-avian-flu-b5daa56d">MarketWatch</a>. Fewer hens mean fewer eggs, and that's been a major hit to supply.&nbsp;
At the same time, the <a href="https://www.usnews.com/news/us/articles/2025-02-12/us-eggs-prices-hit-a-record-high-of-4-95-and-are-likely-to-keep-climbing">cost of feed has shot up</a>. Add in inflation, supply chain snags, and rising transportation costs, and it's no wonder eggs are so expensive right now.
Not everyone is convinced that the government's current approach will actually solve the problem. Experts point out that bringing in eggs from other countries might offer quick relief but could also discourage investment in domestic production.&nbsp;
There are also concerns that deregulation will push prices down in the short term but at the expense of <a href="https://www.health.com/food-recalls-2024-more-deaths-11685472">food safety</a>. Simplifying red tape might be of some benefit, but it will do nothing to fix deeper issues like biosecurity risks and structural issues the sector is facing.&nbsp;

The effects of all this are easy to see. Some grocery stores are limiting how many egg cartons customers can buy, and popular restaurant chains like Denny's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DENN#NASDAQ">DENN</a>) and Waffle House have added extra charges to their egg-based dishes to keep up with costs.&nbsp;
In an interesting twist, cage-free eggs—which used to be the pricey option—are now selling for less than regular eggs in some places.
Despite the chaos, there's some hope on the horizon. Rollins remains optimistic, saying, "We see a significant plan with significant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/43084861/mark-cubans-29-million-shark-tank-portfolio-from-200k-in-dude-wipes-to-200m-for-beatbox-beverages-im-killing-it">funds</a> moving ahead, and relief is coming right around the corner." Unless the avian flu outbreak eases up and domestic production gets back on track, egg prices could increase by around <a href="https://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/food-price-outlook/summary-findings">41% in 2025</a>.&nbsp;

Egg Prices Hit Record $4.95 Per Dozen – Agriculture Secretary Blames 'Overregulation' For Skyrocketing Cost

Restaurant giant McDonald's Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>) is celebrating 50 years of breakfast with specials and promotions that brush off the egg surcharges other restaurant chains have added with the breakfast commodity<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43663963/record-high-egg-prices-drive-inflation-higher-in-january"> hitting record highs.</a>
What Happened: While restaurants like Waffle House and Denny's Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DENN#NASDAQ">DENN</a>) are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/restaurants/25/02/43511263/high-egg-prices-drive-waffle-house-to-add-50-cent-surcharge">adding egg surcharges </a>to pass the rising costs of eggs back to consumers, McDonald's is offering some relief for its customers.
The company <a href="https://corporate.mcdonalds.com/corpmcd/our-stories/article/celebrate-50years-ofmornings-atmcd-special-deals-breakfast-favorites.html">announced </a>its celebration of 50 years of the Egg McMuffin breakfast sandwich with special deals and increased breakfast options.
McDonald's launched the Egg McMuffin nationwide in 1975 and will celebrate the 50th anniversary with National Egg McMuffin Day on March 2. On that day, McDonald's app users can get an Egg McMuffin or Sausage McMuffin with Egg breakfast sandwich for $1.
"50 years later, it's still the GOAT. In honor of this golden anniversary, the Golden Arches are doubling down on breakfast – offering fans even more reasons to wake up with McDonald's and save on their favorites," the restaurant company said.
Another promotion running March 3 through March 30 offers buy one get one free on Sausage McMuffin with Egg sandwiches using McDelivery through the McDonald's app.
The restaurant company also announced its bagel sandwiches are now available nationwide, including options like the Bacon, Egg &amp; Cheese and the Steak, Egg &amp; Cheese. McDonald's is also expanding its partnership with Krispy Kreme (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DNUT#NASDAQ">DNUT</a>) to offer donuts in New York, its latest expansion. By the end of 2025, over half of the U.S. McDonald's locations are expected to have Krispy Kreme donuts.
"At McDonald's, breakfast isn't just a meal; it's a cherished tradition and cornerstone of our brand," McDonald's USA president Joe Erlinger said. "Every morning when we open our doors, we are a breakfast restaurant."
Erlinger added that McDonald's customers can count on the company's "one-of-a-kind breakfast experience, anchored in great value and high-quality ingredients."

Why It's Important: Waffle House recently announced a 50 cent surcharge on eggs due to the record highs. Denny's followed with a plan to add a temporary surcharge on eggs based on individual markets.
McDonald's North American chief impact officer Michael Gonda took a shot at the other restaurants in a <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/posts/michaelgonda_breakfastcomesfirst-activity-7300205561386610689-65GH/">post </a>celebrating McDonald's new breakfast promotions.
"While many in the U.S. are talking about [eggs], we've had something in the works for a while and the timing couldn't be better (important side note: unlike others making news recently, you definitely WON'T see McDonald's USA issuing surcharge on eggs, which are 100% cage-free and sourced in the U.S.)," Gonda said.
The timing of McDonald's breakfast themed promotions could be a catalyst to watch for investors after the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43592025/fast-food-major-mcdonalds-stocks-rise-despite-q4-sales-miss-details">fourth-quarter financial results</a> missed estimates.
The company reported a 0.3% year-over-year sales decline in the fourth quarter with U.S. comparable sales down 1.4% year-over-year.
McDonald's is seeing increased user counts for its app and the breakfast promotions could add to that total, giving the restaurant giant another way to market its products and promotions to a large user base.
"We're playing to win, focusing on our customers with outstanding value, exciting menu innovation and culturally relevant marketing," McDonald's CEO Chris Kempczinski said during the third-quarter financial results.
MCD Price Action: McDonald's stock is down 1% to $307.73 on Wednesday versus a 52-week trading range of $243.53 to $317.90. McDonald's stock is up 4% over the last year.
