Anushka Mukherjee Mon, September 21, 2026 at 7:45 AM PDT 3 min read DPZ Dominos Pizza Inc storefront by-KathyDewar via iStock Founded in 1960, Domino's Pizza, Inc. (DPZ) is the world's largest pizza company, with a sizable presence across both delivery and carryout. The company ranks among the world's leading publicly traded restaurant brands, operating a global system of more than 22,500 stores across over 90 markets. Domino's generated more than $20.6 billion in global retail sales over the trailing four quarters ended June 14, 2026. Its business is largely franchise-driven, with independent franchise owners accounting for 99% of Domino's stores as of the end of the second quarter of 2026. Digital ordering has also become a major part of Domino's U.S. business. In 2025, more than 85% of U.S. retail sales were generated through digital channels, reflecting the company's continued development of innovative ordering platforms. Domino's is considered a large-cap stock, although its current size sits close to the traditional threshold for that classification.

The stock has plunged nearly 32.9% from its 52-week high of $442.35, reached in December last year. Over the past three months, shares have fallen almost 5.3%, broadly mirroring the 5% decline recorded by the State Street Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR ETF (XLY). www.barchart.com The longer-term picture has been even more challenging. Domino's shares have declined nearly 30.7% over the past year and are down 28.8% so far in 2026. By comparison, the broader XLY has fallen only 7.7% over the past year and 6.7% so far in 2026. That wider performance gap highlights just how much pressure Domino's stock has faced relative to the broader consumer discretionary sector. From a technical standpoint, the stock has remained under pressure for an extended stretch, trading below its 200-day moving average since December last year.
