Here's what to expect from Chipotle earnings

The chain is expected to roll out its replacement queso and quesadillas next year.Brian Niccol, CEO of Chipotle Mexican Grillis expected to report third-quarter earnings after the bell Tuesday.

The company's stock price has nearly doubled so far this year. It has a market value of $23.5 billion.Revenue: $1.4 billion expectedLast month, Chipotle launched its first new protein since it added chorizo three years ago. Carne asada, which is priced 50 cents higher than its original steak, will only be available for a limited time.

And the menu changes under CEO Brian Niccol are expected to keep coming. In 2020, Chipotle will launch a replacement for its queso. The company is testing its queso blanco in Detroit, Dallas and San Diego. Analysts also predict that the chain will roll out long-awaited quesadillas next year. Investors will be watching to see if the company is able to keep accelerating digital sales by adding loyalty members. In July, Chipotle reported that its digital sales had nearly doubled during its second quarter, thanks in part to the March launch of a loyalty program. At the time, the loyalty program had 5 million members.

Avocado prices, which reached record highs over the summer, could put pressure on Chipotle's third-quarter profits. CFO Jack Hartung told analysts on the earnings call in July that the fruit is the biggest wildcard for Chipotle's margin potential.
