The company reported adjusted earnings per share of 43 cents, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/b41802404/papa-johns-announces-third-quarter-2024-financial-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">in line with the street view</a>. Quarterly sales of $506.81 million (down 3.1%) beat the analyst consensus estimate of $497.27 million.
&#8220;During the third quarter, we delivered earnings in line with our expectations in what continues to be a very challenging consumer environment,&#8221; said Papa John&#8217;s CEO Todd Penegor.
The lower revenues were mainly due to a $9.9 million decrease in international revenues from UK restaurants, an $8.5 million drop in domestic restaurant sales from lower transaction volumes, and a $4.8 million decrease from the sale of Preferred Marketing, the former print and promotions company.

North America comparable sales were down 6% from a year ago. Domestic Company-owned restaurants were down 7%, and North America franchised restaurants were down 5%. International comparable sales were down 3% compared to the previous year.
Adjusted operating income was $29.3 million, a $4.3 million, or 12.9%, decrease from the same period a year ago.
The decrease in adjusted operating income for was mainly due to lower margins at Domestic Company-owned restaurants. This was because the company strategically reinvested some of its first-half savings to improve consumer value perception.
As of Sept. 29, there were 5,908 Papa Johns restaurants operating in 49 countries and territories.
Dividend: On Oct. 29, the firm declared a fourth-quarter dividend of 46 cents per common share. The dividend will be paid on November 29 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 18.
In a separate press release, the company announced the appointment of Jenna Bromberg to chief marketing officer, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/b41802743/papa-johns-announces-jenna-bromberg-as-chief-marketing-officer" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">effective Nov. 14.</a>

Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cbrl#NASDAQ">CBRL</a>) is scheduled to report fourth-quarter fiscal 2024 results on Sept. 19. In the last reported quarter, CBRL registered an earnings surprise of 57.1%.
<h2>Trend in Estimate Revision</h2>
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal fourth-quarter earnings per share is pegged at $1.17, which indicates a deterioration of 34.6% from $1.79 reported in the year-ago quarter.
For revenues, the consensus mark is pegged at $898.8 million, which implies an increase of 7.4% from the year-ago quarter&#39;s reported figure.
Let&#39;s check out the factors that might have influenced CBRL&#39;s performance in the quarter to be reported.
<h2>Factors at Play for CBRL</h2>
Cracker Barrel&#39;s fiscal fourth-quarter top line is likely to have been aided by menu innovation, higher menu pricing, expansion and other sales-building efforts. Given the growing demand for its breakfast category, including Homestyle Chicken, French Toast, Barrel Bites and beverages, Cracker Barrel introduced its $5 take-home meals at the beginning of fiscal 2024, which is expected to have aided the company&#39;s top line.
The company is also benefiting from growth in off-premise sales. It continues to focus on off-premise initiatives, such as curbside delivery, third-party delivery and family meal baskets. These efforts are likely to have aided the off-premise sales.
Our model predicts Restaurant and Retail revenues to be $715.9 million and $168.2 million, respectively, up 7.9% and 6.9% year over year. However, dismal traffic and same-store sales are expected to have negatively impacted the company&#39;s results. Our model predicts retail same-store sales to decline 0.5% year over year. CBRL&#39;s retail business faces challenges stemming from broader industry pressures, particularly in discretionary categories.
Strategic investments in advertising and labor are likely to have increased costs and exerted margin pressure in the to-be-reported quarter. For fourth-quarter fiscal 2024, our model predicts labor and other related expenses&nbsp; to rise 9% year over year to $332.6 million. We expect store-operating expenses to increase 8.4% year over year to $821.6 million. Our model predicts adjusted-operating income to decline 30.7% year over year to $27.6 million.

Top 3 Consumer Stocks That May Fall Off A Cliff In Q3

Papa John's Announces PepsiCo As Exclusive Beverage Supplier For North America Through 10-Year Contract Renewal

Papa John&#39;s International, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pzza#NASDAQ">PZZA</a>) will likely benefit from digital initiatives, menu innovation and unit-expansion efforts. This and the emphasis on strategic refranchising bode well. However, a challenging macro environment and soft comps are a headwind.
Let&#39;s delve deeper.
<h2>Strategic Efforts Aid PZZA&#39;s Prospects</h2>
Innovation and Digital Enhancements: Innovation remains key to Papa John&#39;s strategy. The company is expanding its pipeline of differentiated menu offerings, designed to boost customer satisfaction and enhance brand loyalty. Investments in digital platforms are expected to drive higher conversion rates and repeat transactions. The recent app update and improvements in the loyalty program are already showing promising results, with enhanced user experience and streamlined customer journeys.
Improving PZZA&#39;s Value Perception: Papa John&#39;s is realigning its marketing and product offerings to better cater to value-conscious consumers. Initiatives such as the launch of the $9.99 cheeseburger pizza and the $10.99 extra-large New York-style pizza have begun to improve the brand&#39;s value perception. It is also testing various value offers in certain markets to identify opportunities that are likely to drive growth in restaurant-level profits.
International Growth and Transformation: On the international front, the company is making significant strides in optimizing its operations, particularly in the U.K. It closed 43 underperforming restaurants and refranchised 60, leaving 13 company-owned locations in the U.K. This strategic refranchising is expected to make the U.K. market profitable in the second half of 2024. It is executing a global marketing campaign, &lsquo;Better Get You Some,&#39; which already started to yield positive results across various regional hubs.
<h2>PZZA Headwinds: Dismal Price &amp; Comps Performance</h2>
<img alt="Zacks Investment Research" src="https://staticx-tuner.zacks.com/images/articles/charts/6c/75539.jpg?v=1748170985" />
Image Source: Zacks Investment Research
Stock Performance: Year to date, shares of Papa John&#39;s have declined 36.3% against the industry&#39;s rise of 0.2%. Softer sales trends driven by macroeconomic pressures and shifts in consumer spending primarily caused the downside.
Dismal Comps Hurt Papa John&#39;s: In the second quarter, total comparable sales declined 2.7% year over year compared with a 1.3% fall reported in the prior-year quarter. Domestic company-owned restaurant comps in the quarter fell 4.2% year over year compared with 2.2% growth reported in the year-ago quarter. At North America franchised restaurants, comps fell 3.4% year over year against a 2.3% decline reported in the year-ago quarter. Comps growth at North America restaurants declined 3.6% year over year. The downside was primarily caused by lower transactions attributable to a decline in its organic delivery and a lower estimated year-over-year shift in channel mix.
PZZA anticipates the trend to continue on account of ongoing economic challenges and weakening consumer confidence. The company adjusted its full-year guidance to reflect this cautious outlook, anticipating North America&#39;s comparable sales to range from flat to a slight decline for the entirety of 2024.
<h2>Time to Keep an Eye on PZZA Stock?</h2>
Despite near-term challenges, Papa John&#39;s is strategically positioning itself for long-term success. Its focus on enhancing value perception, driving innovation, optimizing digital channels and improving international operations provides a solid foundation for growth. Investors should consider retaining PZZA stock as the company navigates this transitional phase. The Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) justifies our thesis.
<h2>Key Picks</h2>
Some better-ranked stocks in the Zacks Retail-Wholesale sector include:
Texas Roadhouse, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/txrh#NASDAQ">TXRH</a>) sports a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy). It has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 0.4%, on average. TXRH&#39;s shares have risen 62.3% in the past year.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for TXRH&#39;s 2024 sales and earnings per share indicates 15.6% and 39.2% growth, respectively, from the year-earlier actuals.
Wingstop Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/wing#NASDAQ">WING</a>) carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). It has a trailing four-quarter negative earnings surprise of 21.8%, on average. The stock has surged 148.2% in the past year.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for WING&#39;s 2024 sales and EPS suggests a rise of 36% and 51.2%, respectively, from the year-ago levels.
El Pollo Loco Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/loco#NASDAQ">LOCO</a>) carries a Zacks Rank #2. It has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 21.6%, on average. LOCO&#39;s shares have risen 42.6% in the past year.
