Cava seems to be in the sweet spot of fast casual dining following its Q2 earnings report.

After the market close on Thursday, the Mediterranean fast-casual chain reported Q2 results that beat estimates across revenue, earnings, and same-store sales.

On Wednesday, Cava stock hit a record high close of $102.39, and on Thursday hit an intraday high of $104.84. In after-hours trading, share jumped to as much as $112.Slow and steady is Cava's go-to approach to expansion. By 2032, the company plans to have 1,000 Cava locations.

"Cava was one of just a handful of publicly traded restaurant brands with positive traffic growth in the second quarter," Schulman said. "We believe our performance is a reflection of our unique and compelling value proposition."that "we're going to be very judicious in how we use it ." Neman claimed the chain took fewer price hikes than its rivals since the pandemic.
