Framing Analysis
New York Post reported that Sweetgreen shares fell 10% on Friday after the chain removed jalapeños and lowered its full-year outlook to an adjusted EBITDA loss of $23-27 million. Same-store sales declined 6.2% in the second quarter, with the company now projecting an annual drop of 7-8%. Sweetgreen and its products have not been linked to any cyclospora outbreak, while a separate Colorado salmonella incident was tied to jalapeños at other chains.
