▼ + stars: | 2024-02-21 | by ( Paulina Likos | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

CNBC's Jim Cramer said Wednesday he believes Wendy's may have a tough year ahead after the franchise reported weaker-than-expected quarterly results last week. Still, management said they're optimistic about 2024 revenue growth supported by lower commodity costs and incremental investments in its breakfast menu. However, Cramer said the stock's 5.55% annual dividend yield is "raising eyebrows" as investors may question whether the quarterly payout can be sustained, given the difficult macroeconomic environment. Wendy's share prices have dropped more than 7.5% year to date. JPMorgan downgraded Wendy's to neutral from overweight (hold from buy) while cutting its price target to $19 per share from $22.

☆ How 'ghost kitchens' went from $1 trillion hype to a struggling business model

There's one food delivery trend, however, that hasn't gone along for the ride: ghost kitchens. Euromonitor International estimated that the ghost kitchen industry could reach a market size of $1 trillion by 2030. Companies such as Wendy's, Ruby Tuesday, TGI Fridays and Wingstop all joined the wave of ghost kitchens. Consumers complained about the clandestine nature of ghost kitchens, and food delivery apps shuttered thousands of the virtual kitchens. Then consumers shifted back to brick-and-mortar restaurants in droves, forcing investor pullback and mass closures of ghost kitchens.
