Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers Chipotle’s (CMG) Q2 2025 earnings call.

Back-of-house upgrades, including a full rollout of produce slicers and a new equipment package, are expected to improve prep efficiency and expand catering. Internationally, locations in Kuwait are now outperforming US averages. CMG reported weaker revenue on in-line EPS, putting the stock in reverse, down close to 14% on 7/24…

FSD subscriptions rose 25% post-Version 12, though many owners still haven’t tried it. Musk confirmed production of Optimus 3 humanoid robots will begin early 2026, targeting 1 million units annually within five years. AI infrastructure also took focus. Tesla plans to deploy Dojo 2 at 100,000 H100-equivalent scale and roll out the powerful AI5 chip next year. Meanwhile, tariffs and the repeal of the US EV credit are pressuring margins, prompting a near-term affordability push. Musk suggested that the next few quarters could be “rough.” EPS results were in line with estimates and revenue beat estimates, though both figures fell YoY. The stock fell about 9% on 7/24…

Lamb Weston (LW) is one of the world’s largest producers of frozen potato products, supplying French fries and other potato-based snacks to global quick-service restaurants (QSRs), foodservice distributors, and retailers. Lamb Weston is a bellwether for consumer demand trends in the QSR and casual dining globally. Its insights into fry attachment rates, restaurant traffic, and category growth offer a window into broader consumer behavior and foodservice recovery. The company beat expectations behind strong global volume growth (+8% overall, with 4% in North America and 16% internationally) despite continued softness in restaurant traffic. While price/mix declined 4% due to promotional efforts in a competitive market, gains in smaller and retail accounts helped offset weakness from QSR hamburger chains. The company launched a $250M cost-savings plan and reaffirmed its “Focus to Win” strategy, targeting premium product segments and strategic markets. Inventory reduction and curtailments improved working capital, while GLP-1 concerns were downplayed. Fiscal 2026 guidance assumes flat traffic, continued pricing pressure, and tariff risks of about $25M. LW shares rose as much as 20% on 7/23 after posting EPS and revenue beats…
