KRUS

Market cap $846M

Kura Sushi faces continued fundamental deterioration, dropping ~5% after reporting Q1 results and bringing losses to ~40% over the past year. I maintain a sell rating on KRUS, citing worsening comp sales trends and guidance targets for FY26 that appear overly optimistic. Restaurant-level margins have fallen to ~15%, pressured by persistent ingredient cost inflation and tariffs, with little relief expected near-term.
