Shares of Panera Bread (PNRA) hit a 52-week low today, after the company's first-quarter profit fell by 12%, with same-0store sales staying roughly flat. Though the company did cite bad weather this winter as one cause of the reduced foot traffic, which has been a trend among several similar stocks, there may be other issues plaguing the company.
