Domino's Pizza's (DPZ) stock is offering a balanced risk and reward ratio, with US same-store-sales growth slowing down and international growth from countries with lower average unit volumes, RBC Capital Markets said in a note Tuesday.
There is a higher risk that US SSS will decelerate after the current boosts from partnerships like DoorDash and product launches fade by H2 2026, the investment firm said.
Our forecasts show US SSS growth from third-party delivery and new products will fall from 3.5% in Q1 2026 to 1.6% by Q4 2026, and the overall market share gains have slowed compared to previous years, RBC analysts noted.
More international expansion is happening in China and India, where store sales are much lower than in other regions, and this shift could further slow international same-store sales, according to the note.
RBC downgraded Domino's to sector perform from outperform and cut its price target to $500 from $550.
