Weak December sales and ongoing concerns over E. coli have sent Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE: CMG) shares plummeting. It there hope for Chipotle to right the ship anytime soon, or are shareholders in for a rough 2016? Here’s what five Wall Street analysts have to say.
Cowen and Company
Analyst Andrew Charles believes “2017 will be a rebound year” for Chipotle and warns that “the return to normalized sales volumes will take time.” The firm has a Market Perform rating on Chipotle and a $415 price target for the stock.
Deutsche Bank
Analyst Karen Short argues that, without identifying the source of the E. coli, “CMG cannot, with ‘integrity,’ invite customers back.” The firm maintains a Hold rating on Chipotle but has lowered its price target dramatically from $480 to $400.

Credit Suisse
Analyst Jason West forecasts “a meaningful recovery in 2017 on easy compares, improved digital capabilities and possibly a price increase.” The firm maintains an Outperform rating on Chipotle but reduced its price target from $575 to $530.
