Analysis
This contract resolves based on whether CAVA Group Inc. will operate more than 455 restaurant locations when reporting Q1 2026 financial results, currently priced at 63% probability. CAVA has maintained steady expansion as a fast-casual Mediterranean restaurant chain. The outcome depends primarily on the company's actual unit growth rate over the preceding quarters and any changes to expansion plans or closures. Q1 2026 earnings report, expected in late April or early May 2026, will provide the definitive restaurant count and resolve this contract. Historical growth trends, publicly announced expansion targets, and actual new openings versus planned openings will determine if the threshold is exceeded or missed.
- ›CAVA's historical quarterly unit growth rate and whether recent pace has accelerated, decelerated, or remained consistent
- ›Any public announcements from CAVA management regarding expansion plans, guidance revisions, or store closure decisions in 2025-2026
- ›Restaurant count as of Q4 2025 earnings report relative to the 455-unit threshold and runway needed
- ›Capital allocation priorities and available financing for expansion during the relevant period
- ›Comparable restaurant chain expansion rates and broader QSR market conditions affecting new unit economics

How we compute these odds
SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.
For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.
Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
