Factores de riesgo

• Demand volatility could extend break-even beyond 10 months if monthly revenue falls below $12,600
• High revenue sensitivity: margin pressure may erode the $4,512–$10,092 profit range if costs rise
• 160 nearby competitors increase the risk of faster-than-expected price competition
• Consumer spending constraints tied to GDP/capita of $8,452 may limit premium menu items
