TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 1, 2023-- Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLMN) today reported results for the second quarter 2023 (“Q2 2023”) compared to the second quarter 2022 (“Q2 2022”).

“We delivered another strong quarter of results that continues to highlight the benefits of our portfolio,” said David Deno, CEO. “Earnings for the quarter were above expectations and revenues were in line. Our results reflect the investments we are making to elevate the customer experience as well as the ongoing execution of our growth strategy. We remain well positioned to deliver on our long-term goals of growing sustainable sales and profits while maximizing total shareholder return.”

  • The increase in Total revenues was primarily due to: (i) higher comparable restaurant sales, (ii) the net impact of restaurant openings and closures and (iii) the benefit of Brazil value added tax exemptions.
  • Operating income margin was flat compared to Q2 2022 primarily due to an increase in restaurant-level operating margin as described below offset primarily by higher depreciation expense.
  • Restaurant level operating margin improved from Q2 2022 primarily due to: (i) leveraging increased comparable restaurant sales, (ii) the impact of certain cost saving initiatives and (iii) the benefit of Brazil value added tax exemptions. These increases were partially offset by: (i) labor, operating expenses and commodity inflation and (ii) higher advertising expense.

Dividend Declaration and Share Repurchases
On July 18, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.24 per share, payable on August 25, 2023 to stockholders of record at the close of business on August 14, 2023.

During 2023, we repurchased 1.8 million shares for a total of $43 million through the date of this release. On February 7, 2023, our Board of Directors approved a $125 million authorization (the “2023 Share Repurchase Program”) that will expire on August 7, 2024. We have $97 million of share repurchase authorization remaining under the 2023 Share Repurchase Program.

Brazil Tax Legislation
In our second fiscal quarter, Brazil enacted tax legislation that prospectively limits our ability to benefit from the 100% exemption from income tax and federal value added taxes (PIS and COFINS) for the full five-year period. As a result of this legislation, we expect to be subject to PIS and COFINS and a portion of income tax beginning in the fourth quarter of 2023 and the remainder of income tax beginning in 2024. Despite this new legislation, we expect to realize an approximate $0.25 EPS benefit in 2023 as discussed in our February 16, 2023 earnings release. This is included within our Fiscal 2023 guidance described below.

Fiscal 2023 Financial Outlook

About Bloomin’ Brands, Inc.
Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. is one of the largest casual dining restaurant companies in the world with a portfolio of leading, differentiated restaurant concepts. The Company has four founder-inspired brands: Outback Steakhouse, Carrabba’s Italian Grill, Bonefish Grill and Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar. The Company owns and operates more than 1,450 restaurants in 47 states, Guam and 13 countries, some of which are franchise locations. For more information, please visit www.bloominbrands.com.

Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP, this press release and related tables include certain non-GAAP measures, which present operating results on an adjusted basis. These are supplemental measures of performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP and include: (i) Restaurant-level operating income and the corresponding margin, (ii) Adjusted net income and (iii) Adjusted diluted earnings per share.

Restaurant-level operating margin is a non-GAAP financial measure widely regarded in the industry as a useful metric to evaluate restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance of ongoing restaurant-level operations, and we use it for these purposes, overall and particularly within our two segments.

We believe that our use of non-GAAP financial measures permits investors to assess the operating performance of our business relative to our performance based on GAAP results and relative to other companies within the restaurant industry by isolating the effects of certain items that may vary from period to period without correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. However, our inclusion of these adjusted measures should not be construed as an indication that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or infrequent items or that the items for which we have made adjustments are unusual or infrequent or will not recur. We believe that the disclosure of these non-GAAP measures is useful to investors as they form part of the basis for how our management team and Board of Directors evaluate our operating performance, allocate resources and administer employee incentive plans.

These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to replace GAAP financial measures, and they are not necessarily standardized or comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. We maintain internal guidelines with respect to the types of adjustments we include in our non-GAAP measures. These guidelines endeavor to differentiate between types of gains and expenses that are reflective of our core operations in a period, and those that may vary from period to period without correlation to our core performance in that period. However, implementation of these guidelines necessarily involves the application of judgment, and the treatment of any items not directly addressed by, or changes to, our guidelines will be considered by our disclosure committee. You should refer to the reconciliations of non-GAAP measures in tables four, five and six included later in this release for descriptions of the actual adjustments made in the current period and the corresponding prior period.

_________________

(1) We have, and in the future may continue to have, negative working capital balances (as is common for many restaurant companies). We operate successfully with negative working capital because cash collected on restaurant sales is typically received before payment is due on our current liabilities, and our inventory turnover rates require relatively low investment in inventories. Additionally, ongoing cash flows from restaurant operations and gift card sales are typically used to service debt obligations and to make capital expenditures.

_________________

(1) The following categories of revenue and operating expenses are not included in restaurant-level operating margin because we do not consider them reflective of operating performance at the restaurant-level within a period:
(a) Franchise and other revenues, which are earned primarily from franchise royalties and other non-food and beverage revenue streams, such as rental and sublease income.
(b) Depreciation and amortization which, although substantially all of which is related to restaurant-level assets, represent historical sunk costs rather than cash outlays for the restaurants.
(c) General and administrative expense, which includes primarily non-restaurant-level costs associated with support of the restaurants and other activities at our corporate offices.
(d) Asset impairment charges and restaurant closing costs, which are not reflective of ongoing restaurant performance in a period.

_________________

 
(1) For 2022, includes losses primarily in connection with the 2025 Notes Partial Repurchase, including the settlements of the related convertible senior note hedges and warrants.  
(2) The tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments were determined based on the nature of the underlying non-GAAP adjustments and their relevant jurisdictional tax rates. For 2022, the primary difference between GAAP and adjusted effective income tax rates relates to certain non-deductible losses and other tax costs associated with the 2025 Notes Partial Repurchase.  
(3) Due to the GAAP net loss, the effect of dilutive securities was excluded from the calculation of GAAP diluted loss per share for the thirteen weeks ended June 26, 2022 as their effect would be antidilutive.  
(4) Adjusted diluted weighted average common shares outstanding was calculated excluding the dilutive effect of 5,002 and 7,774 shares for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2023 and June 26, 2022, respectively, and 4,917 and 8,253 shares for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2023 and June 26, 2022, respectively, to be issued upon conversion of the 2025 Notes to satisfy the amount in excess of the principal since our convertible note hedge offsets the dilutive impact of the shares underlying the 2025 Notes. For adjusted diluted earnings per share, the calculation includes 3,965 dilutive shares for the thirteen weeks ended June 26, 2022, primarily related to outstanding warrants. These shares were excluded from the calculation of GAAP diluted loss per share during the period as their effect would be antidilutive.
