The fast casual restaurant company remains unprofitable with $20.1 million in net losses over the past 12 months and SHAK is expected to report a $0.25 decrease in earnings per share for fiscal 2022, from -$0.06 in fiscal 2021 to -$0.31. However, Shake Shack is estimated to report $0.16 in earnings for fiscal 2023, indicating a $0.47 increase in  earnings per share (EPS) and an expected shift to profitability.

SHAK is also expected to produce a very high revenue growth rate for the coming years, making Shake Shack stock's price-sales ratio of 2.00 very attractive from valuation point of view. SHAK is estimated to report 27% revenue growth for fiscal 2022 and 25.1% revenue growth for fiscal 2023, off the back of a 41.5% increase in fiscal 2021. The fast casual restaurant chain has also managed to generate 71.6% annual revenue growth since fiscal 2018, despite reporting a 12.1% decline in fiscal 2020 as a result of the pandemic. Overall, Shake Shack stock offers a solid high growth option for investors looking to invest in the restaurant industry.
