Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. (NASDAQ:CBRL) is gearing up for its quarterly earnings release on September 17, 2025. Founded in 1969 in Lebanon, Tennessee, Cracker Barrel operates around 660 locations and owns the fast-casual Maple Street Biscuit Company. The company is a well-known name in the restaurant industry, competing with other casual dining chains.
Analysts predict Cracker Barrel's earnings per share (EPS) to be $0.78, with revenue expected to reach approximately $855.3 million. These figures are crucial as they provide a snapshot of the company's financial performance. The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 19.72 suggests that the market values Cracker Barrel's earnings moderately compared to its peers.
The company's price-to-sales ratio is 0.32, indicating a relatively low market valuation compared to its revenue. This could imply that investors see potential for growth in Cracker Barrel's sales. The enterprise value to sales ratio of 0.65 further reflects the company's total valuation in relation to its sales, providing a broader perspective on its market position.
Cracker Barrel's enterprise value to operating cash flow ratio stands at 12.20, offering insight into how the market values the company's cash flow from operations. The earnings yield of 5.07% gives investors an idea of the return on investment from its earnings. However, the debt-to-equity ratio of 2.43 highlights a higher level of debt compared to equity, which could be a concern for some investors.
The current ratio of 0.65 suggests potential liquidity challenges, as it indicates the company's ability to cover short-term liabilities with current assets. As Cracker Barrel prepares for its earnings release, these financial metrics will be closely watched by analysts and investors to assess the company's financial health and operational performance.
