UBS analyst Dennis Geiger has lowered Sweetgreen's stock price target to $35 from $45 while maintaining a Buy rating, as the company faces near-term challenges, including weather impacts and sluggish same-store sales. Despite a 28% year-to-date decline, Sweetgreen plans to open at least 40 new locations in 2025 and anticipates a positive turnaround in same-store sales, projecting a 1-3% increase for the year. The company reported a fourth-quarter EPS of -$0.25, missing expectations, but achieved a 15% year-over-year sales increase, reaching $676.8 million.
