An online account tracking pizza traffic near the Pentagon reported unusually high activity at a nearby Papa John's, months after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth joked about manipulating such signals. The "Pentagon Pizza" theory suggests that spikes in late-day or late-night food orders near military installations may indicate officials working extended hours during geopolitical events. Papa John's shares gained 3.70% on Monday amidst this renewed attention on the theory.

Papa John's International (PZZA) is set to announce its fourth-quarter 2025 earnings on Feb. 26, with estimates pointing to a significant year-over-year decline in both earnings per share and revenue due to weaker North American consumer demand and transactional pressures. Despite expected challenges from a softer market and increased costs, the Zacks Model predicts an earnings beat for PZZA, attributing it to a positive Earnings ESP and a favorable Zacks Rank. The article also highlights other retail-wholesale stocks, Starbucks, The Cheesecake Factory, and Restaurant Brands International, which are also expected to beat earnings based on the model.

Wynne cited compassion for his franchisees and employees, and the desire to maintain cultural exchange with the Russian people, as his reasons. His company sources most ingredients domestically and is not reliant on the parent company for supplies.
