Toast stock has plummeted 43% amid AI-driven market fears affecting software stocks, despite the company achieving record free cash flow of $608 million. While Toast dominates the small restaurant market with strong switching costs, growth concerns center on expanding into national chains that have the capability and incentive to build their own systems as AI lowers software development costs. The company's valuation at 27x trailing FCF appears reasonable but reflects investor concerns about long-term competitive threats to its pricing power.

Mentioned alongside McDonald's and Chick-fil-A as a major chain that built its own system rather than adopting Toast. No direct sentiment impact from the article.
