10:35 AM EDT, 10/09/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Domino's Pizza (DPZ) is positioned to deliver "impressive" mid-single-digit same-store sales growth in Q3 and Q4 despite weakness across the restaurant sector, Oppenheimer said in a Thursday research note.

The brokerage said it expects same-store sales growth of 4.3% in Q3 and 5% in Q4, with earnings of $3.98 per share for the third quarter. It adjusted its 2025 and 2026 EPS forecasts to $17.69 and $19.77, respectively, from $17.65 and $19.76 earlier.

Oppenheimer said investor concerns about "tough laps" in 2026 are overdone, adding that it maintains a positive bias given Domino's continued runway for market share gains.

The firm said the company's partnerships and product innovation, including the launch of DoorDash ( DASH ) and Stuffed Crust offerings, could support same-store sales momentum in the second half and drive multi-year incremental growth.

Oppenheimer reiterated its outperform rating on the stock, with a price target of $530 per share.
