DALLAS, Oct. 30,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Brinker International, Inc.
(NYSE: EAT) today announced financial results for the first quarter
ended September 25, 2024.
First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Highlights
"Great food, with great service at industry leading value is
driving strong Chili's sales and traffic," said President and CEO,
Kevin Hochman, "Our continued
success proves the importance of listening to our guests & team
members and delivering on the critical things important to
them."
Company sales were $1,127.3
million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to
$1,002.0 million in the first quarter
of fiscal 2024. Comparable restaurant sales increased 13.0%, with
an increase in comparable restaurant sales of 14.1% for Chili's and
4.2% for Maggiano's. The comparable restaurant sales increase at
Chili's was primarily due to menu pricing and higher traffic.
Chili's advertising and social media campaigns continued to drive
new guests and increased frequency in the first quarter. The "Big
Smasher" burger and Triple Dipper® are resonating well with guests,
and our "3 for Me" combos provide a compelling everyday value.
Higher Company sales resulted in operating income margin increasing
to 5.0% and restaurant operating margin (non-GAAP) increasing to
13.5% for the first quarter. We continue to prioritize our guest
experience by enhancing restaurant staffing and focusing on keeping
our restaurants well maintained. As expected, these initiatives
resulted in incremental labor and repairs and maintenance expense
during the quarter. Additionally, stronger expected operating
performance drove higher incentive compensation within General and
administrative expenses during the quarter.
Financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 and
fiscal 2024 were as follows:

Updates to Full Year Fiscal 2025 Guidance
We are providing the following updated guidance for fiscal 2025
based on our current outlook:
- Total revenues are expected to be in the range of $4.70 billion - $4.75
billion; and
- Net income per diluted share, excluding special items,
non-GAAP, is expected to be in the range of $5.20 - $5.50.
We are reiterating the following full year fiscal 2025
guidance:
- Weighted average shares are expected to be in the range of 45
million - 47 million; and
- Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of
$195 million - $215 million.
The potential for changes in macroeconomic conditions, among
other risks, could cause actual results to differ materially from
those projected. We are unable to reliably forecast special items
without unreasonable effort. As such, we do not present a
reconciliation of forecasted non-GAAP measures to the corresponding
GAAP measures.

Chili's
- Chili's Company sales increased primarily due to favorable
comparable restaurant sales driven by menu pricing, higher traffic,
and favorable menu item mix.
- Chili's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of Company
sales, decreased primarily due to sales leverage, partially offset
by higher repairs and maintenance and hourly labor.
- Chili's franchisees generated sales of $225.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal
2025 compared to $202.8 million for
the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
Maggiano's
- Maggiano's Company sales increased primarily due to favorable
comparable restaurant sales driven by menu pricing and favorable
menu item mix, partially offset by lower traffic.
- Maggiano's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of
Company sales, decreased, primarily due to sales leverage and lower
hourly labor, partially offset by unfavorable commodity costs and
other restaurant expenses.
Corporate
- On a GAAP basis, the effective income tax rate was 9.0% in the
first quarter of fiscal 2025. The effective income tax rate is
lower than the statutory rate of 21.0% due primarily to leverage of
the FICA tip credit. Excluding the impact of special items, the
effective income tax rate was 15.0% in the first quarter of fiscal
2025.

Non-GAAP Measures
Brinker management uses certain non-GAAP measures in analyzing
operating performance and believes that the presentation of these
measures in this release provides investors with information that
is beneficial to gaining an understanding of the Company's
financial results. Non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a
substitute for financial results determined in accordance with
GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance
measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations
of these non-GAAP measures are included in the tables below.

Comparable Restaurant
Sales include all restaurants that have been in operation for more
than 18 full months. Restaurants temporarily closed 14 days or more
are excluded from Comparable Restaurant Sales. Percentage amounts
are calculated based on the comparable periods
year-over-year.

Mix-Shift is calculated
as the year-over-year percentage change in Company sales resulting
from the change in menu items ordered by guests.

Franchise sales
generated by franchisees are not included in Total revenues in the
Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Unaudited);
however, we generate royalty revenues and advertising fees based on
franchisee revenues, where applicable. We believe presenting
Franchise Comparable Restaurant Sales provides investors relevant
information regarding total brand performance.

Reconciliation of Net Income Excluding Special Items (in
millions, except per share amounts)
Brinker believes excluding special items from its financial
results provides investors with a clearer perspective of the
Company's ongoing operating performance and a more relevant
comparison to prior period results.

Restaurant operating margin is not a measurement determined in
accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation, or
as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of financial
performance. Restaurant operating margin is widely regarded in the
restaurant industry as a useful metric by which to evaluate
restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance of ongoing
restaurant-level operations. This non-GAAP measure is not
indicative of overall Company performance and profitability because
this measure does not directly accrue benefit to the shareholders
due to the nature of costs excluded.
We define Restaurant operating margin as Company sales less Food
and beverage costs, Restaurant labor and Restaurant expenses. We
believe this metric provides a more useful comparison between
periods and enables investors to focus on the performance of
restaurant-level operations by excluding revenues not related to
food and beverage sales at Company-owned restaurants, corporate
General and administrative expenses, Depreciation and amortization,
and Other (gains) and charges. Restaurant operating margin as
presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures
of other companies in our industry.
Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA (in millions)
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance
with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation, or as an
alternative to net income as an indicator of financial performance.
Brinker believes presenting Adjusted EBITDA provides a useful
measure of our operating performance, excluding the impacts of
financing costs, capital expenditures and special items. We define
Adjusted EBITDA as Net income before Provision for income taxes,
Other income, net, Interest expenses, Depreciation and amortization
and Other (gains) and charges.
