BUZZ - Domino's Pizza shares fall as quarterly same-store sales miss expectations

October 13 - ** Domino's Pizza (DPZ.O) shares fell about 4% in pre-market trading to $297

** Due to increased inflationary pressure, consumers reduced spending, leading the company's U.S. and international same-store sales growth in the third quarter to fall short of expectations

** According to data compiled by LSEG, the company reported U.S. same-store sales growth of 0.3% in the third quarter, lower than analysts’ expectation of 0.71%

** International same-store sales grew 0.2% in the third quarter, while the market expected 0.88%

** However, thanks to growth in its supply chain business, DPZ's quarterly revenue and profit both exceeded expectations

** As of the previous session’s close, the stock was down about 25% year-to-date
