DIN Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Dine Brands Global Inc. is projected to achieve a 0.6% net unit growth for IHOP in 2025, an improvement from 0.0% in 2024, indicating a positive trend in the brand's expansion efforts. The company anticipates continued SSS growth improvement for both Applebee's and IHOP as 2025 progresses, supported by aggressive value messaging strategies that have already shown momentum in Q4. Despite a conservative estimate for Applebee's net unit growth remaining at (2.2)%, the focus on value and incremental marketing enhancements position the company to potentially meet the low end of its growth guidance, reinforcing a favorable long-term outlook for its franchise operations.
Bears say
Dine Brands Global is experiencing declining same-store sales (SSS) growth estimates for both its Applebee's and IHOP brands, with adjustments reflecting a decrease to (3.5)% and (1.0)% for Q1, respectively, alongside downward revisions for 2025 growth projections. The company’s reliance on a fully franchised model results in low sensitivity of EBITDA to changes in SSS growth, heightening the impact of continued growth and margin pressures on its overall financial performance. Additionally, risks associated with economic conditions, market expansion challenges, and shifts in competitive dynamics further contribute to a negative outlook on the company's growth trajectory and financial stability.
