Jack in the Box remains profitable amid inflation, supported by operational efficiency and a strong balance sheet, positioning it for a potential rebound. JACK's focus on franchised restaurants reduces capital requirements and stabilizes cash flow, making it resilient against inflationary pressures and interest rate fluctuations. Despite high borrowings, JACK's cash reserves and fixed interest rates provide stability, with a DCF model indicating a 20% upside potential, making the stock undervalued.
Liquidity is crucial; it affects the difference between buying and selling prices and price stability during transactions. Tritax Big Box REIT is a solid investment, but avoid its ADR, TTBXF, due to low liquidity and high price volatility. The ADR's price is driven by its own trades, not the underlying stock, leading to misleading price movements.

Box's stock fell post-earnings despite strong Q4 results due to a modest FY25 outlook, but shares have rallied ~20% over the past year. At $32/share, Box's ~13x FCF valuation isn't attractive yet. I recommend waiting for a drop to $28 for a better buying opportunity. Box's revenue and billings growth accelerated slightly in Q4, and the company is expecting ~6% growth in FY26.

Jack in the Box experienced significant volatility following the unexpected resignation of CEO Harris, but Q1 FY 2025 results exceeded EPS expectations, showing resilience. Despite a 3.7% year-over-year decline in top-line sales and challenges from Del Taco, Jack in the Box's same-store sales increased slightly, indicating stability. The company is focusing on innovation and expansion, particularly in Florida and Georgia, while continuing to reduce debt and manage costs effectively.
JACK's first-quarter fiscal 2025 results are hurt by the impact of Del Taco refranchising transactions.
