Business Insider editor-at-large Sara Silverstein discusses Mexican food chain Qdoba's sale to private equity firm Apollo for $305 million, and breaks down what it might mean for Chipotle's valuation. She notes that Qdoba is valued at under $1 million per store, while Chipotle is currently trading at about $3.5 million per store.
Business Insider CEO and noted Chipotle enthusiast Henry Blodget joins the discussion, admitting that he's never eaten at Qdoba, and that he'll continue to favor Chipotle. Silverstein outlines some of Qdoba's positives: it's always had queso dip, its queso and guacamole are free, and it has a bigger menu, including quesadillas. Blodget concludes that the comparison between the two is worrisome for Chipotle.
