Dow Jones

By Denny Jacob

Jack in the Box shares tumbled 13% a day after the company suspended its dividend.

Shares were trading around $22.20. The stock is down about 46% on the year.

The fast food chain has paid a quarterly 44-cent-a-share dividend since 2021, when the payout was increased from 40 cents a share. Jack in the Box on Wednesday said it seeks to strengthen its balance sheet.

The San Diego company also said it plans to close 150 to 200 underperforming restaurants out of a current total of roughly 2,200 Jack in the Box locations. It added that it would consider a sale of Del Taco.
