Module 10: incorporating additional informationCompany: chipotle Matt Ramirez
Chipotle background • Mexican grill that focuses on serving quality food while maintaining speed and efficiency • Found in 1993 by Steve Ells in Denver, Colorado • Considered a “fast-casual” restaurant: food that is served fast without the “fast food” methods or ambiance, allows customers to eat “on the go” or in a nicer restaurant environment • Not franchised, centrally-owned
discussion • Limited footnote tables or information available: difficult to expand most accounts • Little/virtually no debt: trouble with “deemed landlord financing” (sale leasebacks) account and separation between periods (current vs. long-term) • More information/expansion is needed for “prepaid expenses and other current assets” account
discussion • No expansion of income statement accounts: no/insignificant information found in footnotes • “Stock-Based Compensation” discussion in MD&A: could be relevant, but footnote tables do not seem significant for balance sheet or income statement expansion • “Employee Benefit Plans” discussion: used to expand B/S, no information found to expand I/S • More information needed to expand “Other Operating Costs” and “General and Administrative Expenses” accounts
Final thoughts • Reading through footnotes and expansion of B/S and I/S has given a little more insight into Chipotle • Expansions might alter certain projections, and therefore valuations, moving forward • Chipotle’s 10-K is relatively simple: not as much opportunity to “dig in” to certain accounts
