Toast, Inc. is financially strong, has a narrow but growing moat, a huge market opportunity, and aligned management - all key for newly public companies. Its comprehensive restaurant product positions it well to compete against legacy and generalised PoS solutions. Direct (restaurant first) competitors are more formidable on a product level, but have narrower moats (or none) and are not taking share from Toast.

Toast's in-house R&D and lower take rates increase market share while building a data moat.

Financially, Toast has lower gross margins but a more asset-light business model compared to Shift4, with potential for higher quality organic growth.

Toast's stock has dropped 30% since November 2024, presenting a buying opportunity despite recession fears.
