April 8, 2026 8:26 AM

DA Davidson analyst Matt Curtis reiterated a Buy rating and $90.00 price target on Kura Sushi USA Inc. (NASDAQ: KRUS).

The analyst commented, "F2Q results were strong w top- and bottom-line upside while FY26 guidance was raised, though shares slipped ~6% after hours on 1) relatively conservative 2H26 implied SSS expectations (reflecting potential effects of the Iran war/higher gas prices), and 2) unexpected CFO transition news. That said, we remain buyers of shares at current levels given underlying SSS momentum, a proj accel in adj EBITDA growth in FY27 (to 46% from 20% this year), and minimal likely disruption from the CFO change, and reiterate our BUY rating/$90 PT that assumes an EV/EBITDA of 47x our CY27 estimate."
