Revenue Management Solutions Reveals Groundbreaking Comparisons to Pre-Pandemic QSR Performance

Revenue Management Solutions

First-half 2023 traffic is down by nearly 20% compared to 2019 Average check increases of more than 40% contribute to higher sales Revenue Management Solutions, a world leader in addressing profitability challenges for the restaurant industry, has unveiled groundbreaking insights with a comparative analysis of current Quick-Service Restaurant (QSR) performance with pre-pandemic levels. RMS compared sales, traffic and average check in the first halves of 2022 and 2023 to the same period in 2019, shedding light on how the extreme market forces of the past three years have affected the industry. “Most of the industry compares month-over-month or year-over-year data. For example, August 2023 traffic was down just half a percent compared to 2022,” said RMS Senior Vice President Richard Delvallée. “This approach reveals gradual changes but not the seismic shifts our comparisons indicate. The landscape has indeed changed for QSR and its customer base.” Not back to normal Standard indices suggest consumers have resumed pre-pandemic behavior. However, the RMS analysis found otherwise. Here are some key observations: QSR traffic is down nearly 20% (18.4%) when comparing June 2023 to June 2019, with traffic consistently trending downward since January 2022, when it was just 15.5% lower than 2019. Overall, QSR average check is 40% higher than pre-pandemic. Average check grew by 51% in specific dayparts. Consumer behavior has shifted permanently away from QSR dine-in. The channel lost nearly half of overall traffic in the past two years. Lunch traffic is consistently down by about 20%, likely due to hybrid work. Similarly, breakfast traffic took a nosedive in 2023 compared to last year. Performance by channel Performance is not created equal when comparing QSR channels. RMS’ analysis reveals a drastic shift towards drive-thru long after dining rooms reopened. Drive-thru: Traffic is down an average of 12% in 2023 compared to 2019. Net sales remain positive (+25%) due to steep increases in average check, which is up 42% for the year — jumping as high as 49.5% in January 2023. Drive-thru accounts for 2/3 of QSR revenue. Dine-in: Across 2023, dine-in traffic was down an average of 47%, finishing Q2 at a 43.6% loss. Average check growth was more conservative — up 36%, keeping net sales in negative territory (-25%). Takeout: Traffic is down an average of 36% in 2023 compared to 2019, with 42% average check growth and net sales down nearly 10%. “Pandemic dine-in restrictions forced a complete halt to dine-in,” said Delvallée. “As restrictions lifted, labor shortages forced operators to limit in-store service. Now, three years out, the convenience-driven behaviors adopted by guests remain and are being reinforced by improved drive-thru technology and operations.” Performance by daypart Daypart analysis further suggests dining behavior has not returned to “normal.” Average check growth of nearly 50% (47.5%) kept net sales positive for all dayparts, but traffic is significantly down. Breakfast: Traffic was down an average of 21.5% in 2023. Breakfast performed much better in 2022, when decreases were just 8% lower than in pre-pandemic 2019. Net sales remain positive (+16%). Lunch: Traffic is down an average of 18% for 2023 compared to 2019. Net sales are up an average of 18%, driven by a 45% growth in average check. Dinner: Traffic remained most stable but still experienced a decrease — down 15% across the first half of 2023. Net sales were up an average of 25%. Upcoming Pricing Pressure Price increases have been pivotal in sustaining QSR revenue, but how much can customers bear before breaking? When RMS surveyed over 1,000 US consumers, 31% reported spending less at restaurants. Among those consuming less, 1 in 2 are doing so by ordering less frequently from restaurants. “Going into the last quarter of 2023, operators have to be very surgical in their pricing strategy,” notes Delvallée. “This data will undoubtedly help restaurants adapt to the new landscape and enter 2024 stronger.” About Revenue Management Solutions Revenue Management Solutions specializes in delivering actionable insights and providing solutions that drive sales, streamline costs and maximize profitability. With a data-driven approach, RMS supports iconic brands and emerging concepts in over 40 countries, spanning more than 100,000 locations.

The Solid Tumors Market Is Expected To Be Worth $901.27 Billion By 2029, And Oncotelic Therapeutics (OTCQB:OTLC) Is Leading The Charge

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Solid tumors are abnormal clumps of cells that form in various tissues or organs of the body. Unlike liquid or cystic tumors, solid tumors do not contain any liquid components. They can occur in bones, muscles and organs, and can be either benign or malignant. Solid tumors can arise from different types of cells, such as epithelial cells that line the outer surface of the skin and the covering and lining of organs and internal passageways. Solid tumors are generally considered more aggressive and difficult to treat compared to other types of tumors. This is because they have a tendency to grow, invade nearby tissues, and metastasize to other parts of the body. The characteristics that make solid tumors more challenging to treat include their ability to resist traditional cancer treatments — such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy — and their complex genetic makeup, which can vary from patient to patient. Additionally, the location of solid tumors within the body can also contribute to treatment difficulties, as certain areas may be more difficult to access or treat effectively. In order to improve treatment outcomes for solid tumors, researchers and medical professionals are continuously exploring new therapeutic approaches and personalized treatments tailored to the specific characteristics of each tumor. By gaining a better understanding of the underlying biology and genetic abnormalities of individual solid tumors, targeted therapies can be developed to selectively attack cancer cells while minimizing damage to healthy tissues. Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. (OTCQB: OTLC) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of innovative treatments for cancer, with a particular emphasis on solid tumors. The primary product being developed by Oncotelic, through its joint venture is OT-101, also known as Trabedersen. OT-101 is a novel antisense oligodeoxynucleotide designed to target transforming growth factor beta 2 (“TGF-β2”) overexpression in various malignancies, including pancreatic carcinoma, malignant melanoma, colorectal carcinoma and high-grade glioma. Oncotelic aims to address the aggressive nature of solid tumors and their resistance to conventional treatments. In April 2022, Oncotelic’s joint venture (JV) with Dragon Overseas Capital Limited, an affiliate of Golden Mountain Partners, LLC. The JV initial focus is on the development and commercialization of OT-101, the transformative cancer drug that Oncotelic licensed to the JV for a 45% ownership. Dragon Overseas invested cash of $27.6 million for a 55% ownership of the JV. The JV is planned to be headquartered in Hong Kong. Oncotelic could potentially receive up to $50 million following the sale of the RPD voucher once OT-101 has received marketing approval for diffuse intrinsic pontine gliomas. The JV is expected to launch an initial public offering (IPO) on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in 2024, and CEO Dr. Vuong Trieu has said he expects the IPO to be highly successful. “I am excited to announce that, together with our partner Dragon Overseas, we have formed a JV for the discovery, development, and commercialization of TGF-β therapeutics against all pharmaceutical indications,” said Dr. Vuong Trieu, CEO and Chairman of Oncotelic. “This JV unburdens the Company of the high cost of drug development, which the JV will be responsible for, while the Company will participate in its upside through appreciation in the value of its shares in the JV.” The solid tumors market was valued at $209.61 billion in 2021, and it's expected to reach $901.27 billion by 2029. Oncotelic's focus on developing therapies specifically for solid tumors puts them in a very strong position to be a leader in a growing market. The company's research and development efforts in this area demonstrate its commitment to bringing fresh energy and potential breakthroughs into the treatment of solid tumors, offering new possibilities for patients.

Growth Stage Funding Is the New Series A Says Liquidity Group Exec

Benzinga

In the backdrop of dwindling venture capital (VC) funds and economic volatility, firms are re-evaluating equity and debt financing strategies. "We've seen companies bypassing the usual Series A, B, C approach. Instead, they're embracing what's now termed as 'growth stage funding'," notes Yaron Primovich, head of credit solutions at Liquidity Group. Most growth-stage funding comes in the form of non-dilutive investment - an investment that focuses on revenue and success rather than risk. The Anatomy Of Growth Stage Funding Growth stage funding is often the step after seed funding. Here, companies that have ticked off milestones, like significant revenue streams and achieving product-market fit, are looking to expand. Unlike in earlier stages, where firms might rely on equity, now they often opt for debt sourced from banks or similar institutions. Such financing gives businesses the ability to ramp up their operations. The idea, as one CEO puts it, is to "throw gasoline on the fire." These firms, already having shown promise, are now on a less risky pedestal for investors. This isn't to say that this is the last funding bout for firms. Some will continue to look for equity rounds post this phase. But it's observed that many are marching directly to Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) after a successful growth-stage round. The Significance Of Long-term Financial Stability For startups seeking growth-stage funding, a sturdy financial backbone is pivotal. In many instances, lenders demand detailed financial documentation – a rigorous process that some CEOs might find overwhelming. But this scrutiny often streamlines operations, prepping them for further growth. "Establishing financial stability to a non-dilutive lender is gold for future investments. It indicates the company's capability to generate steady returns and manage its debts," said Primovich. The role of working capital is also paramount. It ensures the business keeps running smoothly, fulfilling its daily operational needs. This is especially true in sectors like artificial intelligence and biotech, where there's immense potential for growth, which makes managing finances prudently indispensable. Challenges And Navigation Acquiring growth-stage funding, even with a proven market presence, can be an uphill task. Attracting the right investors who see the vision and potential of the company becomes crucial. Building a robust relationship with potential stakeholders and exuding credibility are fundamental. As companies morph from startup to growth stage, their financial appetite surges. However, affordable capital is key. A company's financial health, its growth trajectory, and prevailing market conditions can swing the cost pendulum. Building a compelling business case and forging strong ties with potential investors often fetches favorable financing terms. Consistent revenue streams bolster a company's growth potential. Startups that can show they're on this path have a better shot at securing additional rounds of funding. Startups need to be cognizant of the current regulatory framework around non-dilutive capital. Non-compliance can be costly, causing delays or even sinking potential investments. This means being alert to securities laws, tax obligations, and more. Expert legal advice often becomes essential. Finding The Right Growth-Stage Partners Aligning with the right investors during the growth stage is a linchpin for success. They're not just financial backers but also mentors and guides. Depending on the need, businesses can look at various potential investors. “Finding a great growth-stage partner is as important as finding the right equity investor,” said Primovich. “Luckily, most non-dilutive funders take hours - not months - to make a decision so the opportunities are promising.” With innovation at its peak and a surge in growth-stage funding, there's a vast potential for industry disruption. For investors and tech companies alike, the future is luminous. This post contains sponsored content. This content is for informational purposes only and not intended to be investing advice.
