Panera Bread’s founder is once again making waves in the restaurant space.
On Thursday, shares of fast-casual restaurant chain Cava exploded 99% on their first day of trading on the New York Stock Exchange. The stock gave up some of its gains Friday, but it's clear investors can envision Cava as the next great restaurant investment in the mold of burrito king Chipotle.
The company’s stock closed at $43.78 per share, up from its opening trade of $42 per share. Its closing price gives it a market value of $4.88 billion and makes it the top-performing IPO this year for companies valued above $500 million.
The company initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 19, 2023, to go public.
