Why First Watch Restaurant Group Topped the Market Today
Yahoo Finance ·
On Wednesday, an analyst launched coverage of First Watch Restaurant Group ( FWRG +3.49% ) with a bullish note, and investors took this to heart. Collectively, they pushed the veteran dining company's shares up by nearly 4% across that day's trading session. First Watch, the company behind the eponymous breakfast-brunch-and-lunch restaurants , was the subject of an inaugural analysis by Freedom Capital's Lynne Collier (who, incidentally, initiated coverage on it and four other restaurant stocks). She believes First Watch stock is a buy at a price target of $17. That's more than 27% above the stock's most recent closing price. According to reports, Collier wrote that she considers the company to be an up-and-coming leader in the breakfast segment. She added that it has posted excellent returns and has plenty of room for growth. The analyst also believes First Watch stock is notably undervalued, particularly after recent investor sell-offs. According to her calculations, it trades at a PEG ratio just over 0.7, indicating it's notably undervalued.
