Dutch Bros (NYSE: BROS) is expanding quickly and picking up loyal fans all over the country. Still, it's relatively small as national restaurant chains go, with only 1,225 stores in 25 states.

The coffee shop chain is planning to change that, though, and management has a long-term growth objective to reach more than 7,000 stores over an unspecified time frame. It did specify a goal to reach 2,029 stores by 2029. That would nearly double its current count in roughly three years.

New stores, more revenue

Each store brings in a significant amount of money that grows over time through same-shop sales increases. CEO Christine Barone noted that the 2026 second quarter was the 13th consecutive quarter of same-shop sales growth and the eighth of same-shop transaction growth.

The simple math is that as store count doubles, so does revenue. Adding on same-shop annual increases would make that revenue estimate even higher. Average unit volume continues to increase as well, reaching $2.2 million in the second quarter. Trailing 12-month revenue for the company right now is $1.9 billion, so you can make a reasonable assumption that it could be around $4 billion at that time.

At the current price, Dutch Bros stock trades at 2.6 times trailing 12-month sales, which is attractive for a company that reported a 32% year-over-year sales increase in the second quarter.

If it hits its target by 2029 and keeps that ratio, the market cap would reach $10.4 billion, or about double today's price, meaning your $10,000 investment would be worth about $20,000.

Will Dutch Bros actually hit its target? That will require a closer look at the company and its ability to perform. It would seem to be a reasonable target to hit for the short term.

October hike odds climb toward 60% as Goldman and BofA both flip — what Warsh's "dose of accommodation" really changedRate futures now price roughly 55% to 62% for a 25bp hike at the October 27-28 FOMC, up from about 30% before Chair Warsh's post-meeting framing that the Fed is merely "removing some accommodation."

Nvidia's $150 billion buyback landed — and the AI sector fell anyway. That's the signal worth tradingNvidia closed up 1.68% at $228.86 on 28 September after announcing a $150 billion share repurchase authorisation, the largest single corporate buyback on record, while the rest of the AI complex sold off: AMD -3.6%, Micron -2.6%, Meta -4.8% and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index -1.61%. The divergence is not noise. Capital is rotating toward cash-flow certainty, not abandoning the AI theme. With Micron reporting after the close on 30 September, here is what the split means.

The 30-year Treasury just hit a 22-year high — and the bond market is not pricing the Fed, it is pricing the deficitThe 30-year Treasury yield closed at 5.56% on 28 September, the highest since June 2004, while the 10-year reached 5.24% and the 20-year 5.60%. The curve has steepened roughly 30bp in eight sessions even as October hike odds sit at 70.3%. That gap is the story: the long end is repricing fiscal and inflation risk, not policy. With PCE on Wednesday and payrolls on Friday, here is what the long end is really saying.
