Shares of fast food chain Jack in the Box are getting smashed after the company posted lower than expected earnings Wednesday afternoon.
The company reported earnings per share of $0.94 for the fourth quarter, up from the year before but missing analysts estimates for earnings of $1.03. Revenue also missed, the company generated $470.8 million against estimates of $475 million.
Following the release, the stock nosedived -19.0% to around $14.61 a share.
The company has two major franchises, burger restaurant Jack in the Box and Mexican fast-casual Qdoba.
According to CEO Lenny Comma, Jack in the Box sales were weaker than expected due to competitors value offerings.
"Jack in the Box sales in the last part of the quarter were lower than we anticipated as several competitors began promoting aggressive value offers," he said in the release. Comma also highlighted weak breakfast sales as another headwind to Jack in the Box.
Both of these are of note as McDonald's launched its all-day breakfast and its new McPick 2 for $2 value offering in the latter parts of 2015.
According to Comma, Qdoba sales were up but offset by a higher than normal advertising spend.

Well I have never had their food so I cannot really weigh in there, but I can say that I am not too surprised. It seems like all of the sort of mid level restaurants like this are coming on some hard times and are closing their doors. I have always wanted to try it, so hopefully they can stay afloat long enough where I can try it.

Barclays paid Qatari investors a total of £346 million ($498.45 million) in secret and dishonestly characterized payments to secure their participation in the bank's 2008 emergency fundraising, a £1 billion lawsuit brought by another key investor on the deal has alleged.
PCP, Amanda Staveley's investment vehicle which invested on behalf of a senior Abu Dhabi royal during Barclays' £7.3 billion cash call, has alleged in court documents that Barclays made the payments after the Qataris saw the value of an earlier investment in the bank plummet as the financial crisis took hold.
PCP's London lawsuit, which seeks £720 million in damages plus interest and costs, lifts the lid on frenetic last-minute arrangements in the run-up to the October 2008 deal, which enabled the bank to stay out of the control of the U.K. government but has now come back to haunt Barclays.
