BMO Capital analyst Andrew Strelzik raised the firm’s price target on Chipotle to $1,950 from $1,800 but keeps a Market Perform rating on the shares due to "valuation sensitivity". The company’s Q1 results topped expectations on stronger comps and restaurant margins, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Chipotle’s traffic momentum should also dispel value concerns following outsized price increases, BMO added, stating that it is also encouraged by the inflection in digital trajectory.
