Shake Shack Plunges, DataDog Soars, Citigroup Drops on ‘Underwhelming’ New Profitability Target

On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Shake Shack (SHAK) shares plummeted after the burger chain reported first-quarter revenue that missed expectations due to pressures including rising beef costs and inclement weather. The company reported revenue of $366.7 million, below the analyst estimate for $372.5 million, and comparable sales growth of 4.6% was roughly in line with expectations.
- DataDog (DDOG) shares surged by the most in more than six years after the software developer raised its full-year outlook for sales and earnings. Revenue is now expected to total $4.3 billion to $4.34 billion, above analysts’ estimates of $4.09 billion on average. Datadog Chief Executive Officer Olivier Pomel said the company is "aggressively building with and for AI", and has signed deals with "two of the world’s biggest AI research teams" to help them with their training workflows.
- Citigroup (C) shares drop. Citigroup Inc. issued new guidance showing it would take the lender more time to catch up to Wall Street peers, with a return on tangible common equity of about 14% to 15% by 2031. The bank's guidance was described as "underwhelming" by some analysts, with investors having looked for a "more aspirational" target of 15% or more over the medium term.
