The thesis — published October 9, 2025
Shares fell 26% in a month, which often sets up a short-term snap back. Short-term signs look weak, but overall mood is still fairly positive. Recent news matched the drop, yet the business is holding up: sales at existing shops rose 5.4%, and a food test expanded to 64 locations. Over the next 0-3 months, we expect the price to steady and, if it climbs back above about $51, consider adding. Keep an eye on costs and consumer spending.
Primary drivers
- Sharp recent drop may trigger a short-term rebound as selling eases
- Sales at existing shops rose 5.4%, pointing to steady, repeat demand
- Food pilot now in 64 shops, adding another way to bring in revenue
- Rising costs and weaker consumer spending could pressure profits

BROS: target reached in 18 days
Lyra published BROS at $49.69 on 2025-10-09 with 20% expected growth over a short-term window.

It also flagged costs and weaker consumer spending as risks, and said a move back above about $51 would matter.
