"We don't view the CEO change as a meaningful risk-factor with (Chipotle's) deep bench set to execute the company's strategy without interruption," Oppenheimer wrote. "We believe Scott Boatwright is well-positioned to become permanent CEO, a move we would applaud."

Shares of Chipotle, up about 25% in 2024, slipped in the wake of Niccol's move to Starbucks but have since recovered that ground. They were edging upward in recent trading today, holding below year-to-date highs.

The company is set to report its first round of quarterly results post-Niccol next month, with a release scheduled for after the market's close on Oct. 29. Since Niccol left, Chipotle has continued issuing a stream of announcements reflecting its recent priorities, including 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:kitchen efficiency and promotional menu items.
