The London Company Large Cap Strategy stated the following regarding Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ:SBUX) in its first quarter 2024 investor letter:

"Starbucks Corporation (NASDAQ:SBUX) - A handful of revenue headwinds weighed on SBUX's results in the quarter. Boycotts due to conflict in the Middle East should be a shorter-term headwind to traffic. The dynamics in the China market may take a bit longer to shake out. That said, as the China consumer gains strength there should be plenty of whitespace for a more rational, tiered market to prosper. The U.S. loyalty base remains strong as ever, cost cutting measures are being pulled forward to counter deleverage from lower revenue, and cash flow is healthy and growing (>4% FCF yield)."
