Jim Cramer on Papa John’s: “We Have to Wait and See”

Papa John’s International, Inc. (NASDAQ:PZZA) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer reflected on. A caller inquired about the stock during the episode, and Cramer responded:

“Okay, I’m into fitness, ‘fitness’ pizza in my mouth. I love Papa John’s. It’s fantastic. And I think that, you know, look, here’s the thing, the only problem with Papa John’s is that they changed the management. The really great guy went… from Papa John’s… went to Shake Shack, and you got Todd Penegor there, and Todd, he is a really good guy, but he was at Wendy’s before and I have watched what Shake Shack has done since, and I think that Shake Shack got the better end of the deal. It’s been really fabulous since Rob Lynch moved over there. So I’m going to have to say we have to wait and see. I like the pizza though very much, but I need to see how Todd does there. He’s new.”

Papa John’s. (NASDAQ:PZZA) operates and franchises pizza delivery, carryout, and dine-in restaurants under the Papa John’s brand, and provides pizzas and related food and beverage items. The company also supplies ingredients, packaging, and other products to its restaurants.
