NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of the Business - Bloomin’ Brands (“Bloomin’ Brands” or the “Company”) owns and operates casual, upscale casual and fine dining restaurants. OSI Restaurant Partners, LLC (“OSI”) is the Company’s primary operating entity. The Company’s restaurant portfolio includes Outback Steakhouse, Carrabba’s Italian Grill, Bonefish Grill and Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar. Additional Outback Steakhouse, Carrabba’s Italian Grill and Bonefish Grill restaurants are operated under franchise agreements.
Basis of Presentation - The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments necessary for fair statement of results for the periods presented have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Unless otherwise noted, disclosures within these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements relate solely to the Company’s continuing operations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024.
Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted - In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” (“ASU No. 2023-09”) which expands existing income tax disclosures, including disaggregation of the Company’s effective income tax rate reconciliation table and income taxes paid disclosures. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for the Company beginning with the 2025 Form 10-K, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to prior periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU No. 2023-09 will have on its disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” (“ASU No. 2024-03”) which requires detailed disclosures in the notes to financial statements of expense categories within relevant income statement captions including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization. ASU No. 2024-03 is effective for the Company beginning with the 2027 Form 10-K, with early adoption permitted, and may be applied either prospectively for reporting periods after the effective date or retrospectively to prior periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU No. 2024-03 will have on its disclosures.
Recent accounting guidance not discussed herein is not applicable, did not have or is not expected to have a material impact to the Company.
Reclassifications - The Company reclassified certain immaterial amounts in prior period financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income.
2. Discontinued Operations
On December 30, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Seller”) completed the sale of 67% of the ownership interest in its business in Brazil (the “Disposal Group”) to a fund managed by an affiliate of Vinci Partners Investments Ltd. (the “Buyer”) (the “Brazil Sale Transaction”). Following the closing, the Brazil restaurants began operating as unconsolidated franchisees.

The aggregate consideration paid to the Seller consists of 67% of the enterprise valuation of the Disposal Group in the amount of R$2.06 billion Brazilian Reais, which equals R$1.4 billion Brazilian Reais (approximately $225.3 million in U.S. Dollars based on the exchange rate on the Closing Date), subject to customary adjustments, and withholding for Brazilian taxes (the “Purchase Price”). On December 30, 2024 the Company received cash proceeds, net of withheld income taxes, of $103.9 million, in U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate on the Closing Date, representing 52% of the Purchase Price. The proceeds were applied to the Company’s revolving credit facility during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025. The second installment payment, representing 48% of the Purchase Price, is due on the first anniversary of the Closing Date (based on the exchange rate on the date of payment) and will generate interest income based on the interbank deposit rate in Brazil until paid. During the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 the Company recorded a pretax gain on the sale of the Disposal Group of $2.9 million within Net (loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax in its Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
The sale represents a strategic shift to a primarily franchised model for the Company’s international operations. The assets and liabilities of the Disposal Group were classified as held for sale on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 29, 2024. For the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 and March 31, 2024, all sales, direct costs and expenses and income taxes attributable to restaurants classified as discontinued operations have been aggregated to a single caption titled (Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for all periods presented.
As of the Closing Date, the fair value of the Company’s retained interest was $59.9 million based on the proportional enterprise valuation of the Disposal Group, adjusted for debt used by the Buyer to fund a portion of the Purchase Price and to be pushed down to the operating entity subsequent to the second installment payment. See Note 3 - Equity Method Investment for additional details regarding the Company’s retained interest in its Brazil operations.
(Loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax, in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) includes the following for the periods indicated:

11. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk - In March 2024 and December 2023, OSI entered into 11 interest rate swap agreements with ten counterparties (the “Swap Transactions”) to manage its exposure to fluctuations in variable interest rates that include one and two-year tenors. The remaining Swap Transactions have an aggregate notional amount of $275.0 million with the following terms:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
NOTIONAL AMOUNT | | WEIGHTED AVERAGE FIXED INTEREST RATE (1) | | EFFECTIVE DATE | | TERMINATION DATE |
| | | | | | |
$ | 100,000,000 | | | 4.34% | | December 29, 2023 | | December 31, 2025 |
175,000,000 | | | 4.40% | | March 29, 2024 | | March 31, 2026 |
$ | 275,000,000 | | | 4.38% | | | | |
____________________
(1)The weighted average fixed interest rate excludes the term SOFR adjustment and interest rate spread described below.
In connection with the remaining Swap Transactions, the Company effectively converted $275.0 million of its outstanding indebtedness from SOFR, plus a term SOFR adjustment of 0.10% and a spread of 150 to 250 basis points, to the weighted average fixed interest rates within the table above, plus a term SOFR adjustment of 0.10% and a spread of 150 to 250 basis points. The Swap Transactions have an embedded floor of minus 0.10%.
The Swap Transactions have been designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, are recognized on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and are classified based on the instruments’ maturity dates. The Company estimates $1.1 million of interest expense will be reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) to Interest expense, net over the next 12 months related to the Swap Transactions.

____________________
(1) See Note 13 - Fair Value Measurements for fair value discussion of the interest rate swaps.
By utilizing the interest rate swaps, the Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event that the counterparty fails to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. To mitigate this risk, the Company enters into derivative contracts with major financial institutions based upon credit ratings and other factors. The Company continually assesses the creditworthiness of its counterparties. As of March 30, 2025, all counterparties to the Swap Transactions performed in accordance with their contractual obligations.
As of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, the fair value of the Company’s Swap Transactions was in a net liability position, including accrued interest but excluding any adjustment for nonperformance risk, of $1.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively. As of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, the Company has not posted any collateral related to the Swap Transactions.
The Swap Transactions contain provisions whereby the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if the repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on indebtedness. If the Company had breached any of these provisions as of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the Swap Transactions at their termination value of $1.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
Non-Designated Hedges
During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts to partially offset the foreign currency exchange gains and losses generated by the Brazilian Reais rate risk associated with the purchase price installment payments from the Brazil Sale Transaction. As of March 30, 2025, the Company had R$697.0 million Brazilian Reais (approximately $120.2 million U.S. Dollars) of outstanding notional amounts related to its foreign currency forward contracts. The liability and asset related to the foreign exchange forward contracts as of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024 are not material. As of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, the Company has not posted any collateral related to the foreign currency forward contracts.
The following table summarizes the effects of the Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the period indicated:

(1)The loss on foreign currency forward contracts is materially offset by the gains on foreign currency exchange related to the installment receivable from the Brazil Sale Transaction.
The Company’s interest rate swaps and foreign currency forward contracts are subject to master netting arrangements. As of March 30, 2025, the Company elected not to offset derivative positions in the balance sheet with the same counterparty under the same agreement.

13. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, or the exit price, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value is categorized into one of the following three levels based on the lowest level of significant input:
| | | | | | | | |
Level 1 | | Unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities |
Level 2 | | Observable inputs available at measurement date other than quoted prices included in Level 1 |
Level 3 | | Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data |
Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis - The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by hierarchy level on a recurring basis as of the periods indicated:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Fair value of each class of financial instruments is determined based on the following:
| | | | | | | | |
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT | | METHODS AND ASSUMPTIONS |
Short-term investments | | Carrying value approximates fair value because maturities are less than three months. |
Derivative instruments | | The Company’s derivative instruments include interest rate swaps and foreign currency forward contracts. Fair value measurements are based on the contractual terms of the derivatives and observable market-based inputs. Interest rate swaps are valued using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative using observable inputs including interest rate curves and credit spreads. Foreign currency forwards are valued by comparing the contracted forward exchange rate to the current market forward exchange rate. Key inputs for the valuation of the foreign currency forwards are spot rates, foreign currency forward rates, and the interest rate curve of the domestic currency. The Company also considers its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. As of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, the Company determined that the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. |
Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company’s non-derivative financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The fair values of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets due to their short duration.
Debt is carried at amortized cost; however, the Company estimates the fair value of debt for disclosure purposes. The following table includes the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s debt by hierarchy level as of the periods indicated:

Income (loss) before provision for income taxes | | | | | $ | 46,044 | | | $ | (78,556) | |
Provision for income taxes | | | | | $ | 903 | | | $ | 6,642 | |
Effective income tax rate | | | | | 2.0 | % | | (8.5) | % |
The effective income tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 increased by 10.5 percentage points as compared to the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to impact of the non-deductible losses associated with the repurchase of $83.6 million of the outstanding 2025 Notes (the “Second 2025 Notes Partial Repurchase”) recorded in the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 which, relative to a pre-tax book loss, resulted in a negative effective income tax rate. The increase was partially offset by the benefit of FICA tax credits on certain employees’ tips in 2025 relative to forecasted pretax book income.
In the U.S., a restaurant company employer may claim a credit against its federal income taxes for FICA taxes paid on certain tipped wages (the “FICA tax credit”). The level of FICA tax credits is primarily driven by U.S. Restaurant sales and is not impacted by costs incurred that may reduce Income (loss) before provision for income taxes.
The effective income tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 was lower than the Company’s blended federal and state statutory rate of approximately 26% primarily due to the benefit of FICA tax credits on certain tipped wages.
The effective income tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 was lower than the Company’s blended federal and state statutory rate of approximately 26% primarily due to the impact of nondeductible losses associated with the Second 2025 Notes Partial Repurchase, partially offset by the benefit of FICA tax credits on certain tipped wages which, relative to a pre-tax book loss during the quarter, resulted in a negative effective income tax rate.
15. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation and Other Matters - The Company recorded reserves of $2.2 million and $2.3 million for certain of its outstanding legal proceedings as of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively, within Accrued and other current liabilities on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. While the Company believes that additional losses beyond these accruals are reasonably possible, it cannot estimate a possible loss contingency or range of reasonably possible loss contingencies beyond these accruals.
Lease Guarantees - The Company assigned its interest, and is contingently liable, under certain real estate leases. These leases have varying terms, the latest of which expires in 2032. As of March 30, 2025, the undiscounted payments that the Company could be required to make in the event of non-payment by the primary lessees was $11.6 million. The present value of these potential payments discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate as of March 30, 2025 was $9.4 million. In the event of default, the indemnity clauses in the Company’s purchase and sale agreements generally govern its ability to pursue and recover damages incurred. As of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, the Company’s recorded contingent lease liability was $1.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

They appear in a number of places throughout this Report and include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies and the industry in which we operate.
By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Although we base these forward-looking statements on assumptions that we believe are reasonable when made, we caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and industry developments may differ materially from statements made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this Report. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and industry developments are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Report, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from statements made or suggested by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:
(i)Consumer reactions to public health and food safety issues;
(ii)Minimum wage increases, additional mandated employee benefits and fluctuations in the cost and availability of employees;
(iii)Our ability to recruit and retain high-quality leadership, restaurant-level management and team members;
(iv)Economic and geopolitical conditions, including recent tariff developments, and their effects on consumer confidence and discretionary spending, consumer traffic, the cost and availability of credit and interest rates;

(vii)Fluctuations in the price and availability of commodities, including supplier freight charges and restaurant distribution expenses, and other impacts of inflation and our dependence on a limited number of suppliers and distributors to meet our beef, pork, chicken and other major product supply needs;
(viii)Our ability to preserve and grow the reputation and value of our brands, particularly in light of changes in consumer engagement with social media platforms and limited control with respect to the operations of our franchisees;
(ix)The effects of international economic, political and social conditions and legal systems on our foreign operations and on foreign currency exchange rates;
(x)The impacts of our operations in Brazil as a minority investor and franchisor following our recent sale transaction;
(xi)Our ability to comply with corporate citizenship and sustainability reporting requirements and investor expectations or our failure to achieve any goals, targets or objectives that we establish with respect to corporate citizenship and sustainability matters;
(xii)Our ability to effectively respond to changes in patterns of consumer traffic, including by maintaining relationships with third-party delivery apps and services, consumer tastes and dietary habits;
(xiii)Our ability to comply with governmental laws and regulations, the costs of compliance with such laws and regulations and the effects of changes or uncertainty with respect to applicable laws and regulations, including tax laws and unanticipated liabilities, and the impact of any litigation;
(xiv)Our ability to implement our remodeling, relocation and expansion plans, due to uncertainty in locating and acquiring attractive sites on acceptable terms, obtaining required permits and approvals, recruiting and training necessary personnel, obtaining adequate financing and estimating the performance of newly opened, remodeled or relocated restaurants, and our cost savings plans to enable reinvestment in our business, due to uncertainty with respect to macroeconomic conditions and the efficiency that may be added by the actions we take;
(xv)Seasonal and periodic fluctuations in our results and the effects of significant adverse weather conditions and other disasters or unforeseen events;
(xvi)The effects of our leverage and restrictive covenants in our various credit facilities on our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations, to make capital expenditures to invest in new or renovate restaurants and to react to changes in the economy or our industry;
(xvii)Any impairment in the carrying value of our goodwill or other intangible or long-lived assets and its effect on our financial condition and results of operations; and
(xviii)Such other factors as discussed in Part I, Item IA. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024.

periods are not intended to express any future trends or indications of future performance, unless specifically expressed as such, and should only be viewed as historical data.
Overview
We are one of the largest casual dining restaurant companies in the world with a portfolio of leading, differentiated restaurant concepts. As of March 30, 2025, we owned and operated 980 restaurants and franchised 486 restaurants across 46 states, Guam and 12 countries. Our restaurant portfolio includes: Outback Steakhouse, Carrabba’s Italian Grill, Bonefish Grill and Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar.
Financial Overview - Our financial overview for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 from continuing operations includes the following:
•U.S. combined and Outback Steakhouse comparable restaurant sales of (0.5)% and (1.3)%, respectively;
•Decrease in Total revenues of (1.8)% as compared to the first quarter of 2024;
•Operating income and restaurant-level operating margins of 5.5% and 13.9%, respectively, as compared to 6.6% and 15.4%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2024;
•Operating income of $57.2 million as compared to $70.9 million in the first quarter of 2024; and
•Diluted earnings per share of $0.50 as compared to $(1.00) for the first quarter of 2024.
Key Financial Performance Indicators - Key measures that we use in evaluating our restaurants and assessing our business include the following:
•Average restaurant unit volumes—average sales (excluding gift card breakage) per restaurant to measure changes in customer traffic, pricing and development of the brand.
•Comparable restaurant sales—year-over-year comparison of the change in sales volumes (excluding gift card breakage) for Company-owned restaurants that are open 18 months or more in order to remove the impact of new restaurant openings in comparing the operations of existing restaurants.
•System-wide sales—total restaurant sales volume for all Company-owned and franchise restaurants, regardless of ownership, to interpret the overall health of our brands.
•Restaurant-level operating margin, Income from operations, Net income (loss) and Diluted earnings (loss) per share—financial measures utilized to evaluate our operating performance.
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. Our restaurant-level operating margin is expressed as the percentage of our Restaurant sales that Food and beverage costs, Labor and other related expense and Other restaurant operating expense (including advertising expenses) represent, in each case as such items are reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The following categories of revenue and operating expenses are not included in restaurant-level operating income and corresponding margin because we do not consider them reflective of operating performance at the restaurant-level within a period:
(i)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;
(ii)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;
BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued
(iii)General and administrative expense, which includes primarily non-restaurant-level costs associated with support of the restaurants and other activities at our corporate offices; and
(iv)Asset impairment charges and restaurant closing costs, which are not reflective of ongoing restaurant performance in a period.
Restaurant-level operating margin excludes various expenses, as discussed above, that are essential to supporting the operations of our restaurants and may materially impact our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). As a result, restaurant-level operating margin is not indicative of our consolidated results of operations and is presented exclusively as a supplement to, and not a substitute for, Net income (loss) or Income from operations. In addition, our presentation of restaurant-level operating margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry.
•Adjusted restaurant-level operating margin, Adjusted income from operations, Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share—non-GAAP financial measures utilized to evaluate our operating performance.
We believe that our use of these non-GAAP financial measures permits investors to assess the operating performance of our business relative to our performance based on U.S. 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 evaluate our operating performance, allocate resources and administer employee incentive plans.

Thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 as compared to thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024
Food and beverage cost increased as a percentage of Restaurant sales primarily due to 0.9% from unfavorable product cost mix and 0.7% from commodity inflation. These increases were partially offset by decreases as a percentage of Restaurant sales of 1.1% in menu pricing and 0.3% from cost-saving and productivity initiatives.
Labor and other related expense increased as a percentage of Restaurant sales primarily due to 1.1% from higher hourly and field management labor costs, mainly due to wage rate inflation, partially offset by a decrease of 0.5% from an increase in average check per person.
Other restaurant operating expense increased as a percentage of Restaurant sales primarily due to 1.3% from higher restaurant-level operating and supply expenses, mainly due to inflation. This increase was partially offset by decreases as a percentage of Restaurant sales of 0.3% from an increase in average check per person and 0.2% from certain cost-saving and productivity initiatives.
General and administrative expense increased as a percentage of Total revenues primarily due to severance and costs associated with our foreign currency forward contracts.
Loss on extinguishment of debt during the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 was in connection with the Second 2025 Notes Partial Repurchase.
Provision for income taxes for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 includes the benefit of FICA tax credits on certain employees’ tips in 2025 relative to forecasted pretax book income. Provision for income taxes for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 includes the impact of the non-deductible losses associated with the Second 2025 Notes Partial Repurchase.
SEGMENT PERFORMANCE
Revenues for both segments include transactions with customers and royalties from franchisees. There were no material transactions among reportable segments. Excluded from Income from operations for U.S. are certain legal and corporate costs not directly related to the performance of the segments, most stock-based compensation expenses, a portion of insurance expenses and certain bonus expenses. The below segment disclosures have been recast to include amounts that relate solely to our continuing operations.
Refer to Note 16 - Segment Reporting of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for reconciliations of segment income from operations to the consolidated operating results.
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. See the Overview-Key Financial Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Financial Measures sections of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional details regarding the calculation of restaurant-level operating margin.

____________________(1)The decrease was primarily due to lower comparable restaurant sales and the net impact of restaurant closures and openings.
(2)Includes royalties from international franchisees and intercompany royalties from Brazil operations at a 5% royalty rate prior to the Brazil Sale Transaction. On December 30, 2024, we entered into franchise agreements in connection with the Brazil Sale Transaction that include royalty rates that are lower than our historical intercompany rates and on the low end of our international franchisee royalty percentage range.
Income from continuing operations
U.S. - The decrease in U.S. Income from operations generated during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 as compared to the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to: (i) lower restaurant sales, (ii) higher operating, labor and commodity costs, primarily due to inflation, and (iii) unfavorable product cost mix. These decreases were partially offset by: (i) an increase in average check per person, primarily due to pricing, (ii) the lapping of 2024 impairment and closure costs in connection with the 2023 Restaurant Closures and (iii) the impact of certain cost-saving and productivity initiatives.

The thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 include an adjustment to income tax expense related to foreign currency gains on the Brazil sale installment receivable. For the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024, the difference between GAAP and adjusted effective income tax rates primarily relates to nondeductible losses and other tax costs associated with the Second 2025 Notes Partial Repurchase.

(6)Adjusted diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 were calculated including the effect of 4.3 million dilutive securities for outstanding 2025 Notes and the effect of 3.1 million dilutive securities for the Warrant Transactions, as defined below. In connection with the offering of the 2025 Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions and concurrently entered into warrant transactions relating to the same number of shares of our common stock (the “Warrant Transactions”). The impact of dilutive securities for the outstanding 2025 Notes and the Warrant Transactions were immaterial for the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025. Adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 have been recast to remove the 4.3 million share benefit of the convertible note hedge transactions we issued in connection with the offering of the 2025 Notes, which was previously included as a non-GAAP share adjustment.
(7)Due to a GAAP net loss from continuing operations, antidilutive securities are excluded from diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024. However, considering the adjusted net income position, adjusted diluted weighted average common shares outstanding incorporates securities that would have been dilutive for GAAP.

System-Wide Sales - System-wide sales is a non-GAAP financial measure that includes sales of all restaurants operating under our brand names, whether we own them or not. Management uses this information to make decisions about future plans for the development of additional restaurants and new concepts, as well as evaluation of current operations. System-wide sales comprise sales of Company-owned and franchised restaurants. For a summary of sales of Company-owned restaurants, refer to Note 4 - Revenue Recognition of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
The following table provides a summary of sales of franchised restaurants by segment for the periods indicated, which are not included in our consolidated Restaurant sales. Franchise sales within this table do not represent our sales and are presented only as an indicator of changes in the restaurant system, which management believes is important information regarding the health of our restaurant concepts and in determining our royalties and/or service fees.

(1)On May 1, 2025, the 2025 Notes were settled primarily using borrowings from the revolving credit facility.
(2)Interest rate for revolving credit facility represents the weighted average interest rate as of March 30, 2025.
As of March 30, 2025, we had $583.7 million in available unused borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility, net of letters of credit of $16.3 million.
Our credit agreement, as amended, contains various financial and non-financial covenants. A violation of these covenants could negatively impact our liquidity by restricting our ability to borrow under the revolving credit facility and cause an acceleration of the amounts due under the credit facilities.
As of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, we were in compliance with our debt covenants. We believe that we will remain in compliance with our debt covenants during the next 12 months and beyond.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Cash flows generated from operating activities and availability under our revolving credit facility are our principal sources of liquidity, which we use for operating expenses, development of new restaurants, remodeling older restaurants or relocating, investments in technology and dividend payments.
We believe that our expected liquidity sources are adequate to fund debt service requirements, lease obligations, capital expenditures and working capital obligations during the 12 months following this filing. However, our ability to continue to meet these requirements and obligations will depend on, among other things, our ability to achieve anticipated levels of revenue and cash flow and our ability to manage costs and working capital successfully.
Brazil Sale Transaction - On December 30, 2024 we received cash proceeds, net of withheld income taxes, of $103.9 million, in U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate on the Closing Date, representing 52% of the total Purchase Price from the Brazil Sale Transaction, and applied the proceeds to our revolving credit facility during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025. The second installment payment, representing 48% of total proceeds from the Brazil Sale Transaction, is due on December 30, 2025, which we also anticipate applying towards the revolving credit facility.
Capital Expenditures - We estimate that our capital expenditures will total approximately $190 million to $210 million in 2025. The amount of actual capital expenditures may be affected by general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors, among other things, including raw material constraints.

Dividends and Share Repurchases - In April 2025, our Board declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share, payable on June 4, 2025. Future dividend payments are dependent on our earnings, financial condition, capital expenditure requirements, surplus and other factors that our Board considers relevant, as well as continued compliance with the financial covenants in our debt agreements.
In February 2024, our Board approved a $350.0 million share repurchase authorization. As of March 30, 2025, $96.8 million remained available for repurchase.

Summary of Cash Flows and Financial Condition
Cash Flows - The following chart presents a summary of our cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities from continuing operations for the periods indicated:
Operating Activities - The increase in net cash provided by operating activities during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 as compared to the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to changes in working capital partially offset by lower net earnings.
Investing Activities - Net cash provided by investing activities during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 was primarily due to the proceeds from the Brazil sale, net of taxes withheld, partially offset by capital expenditures and payments on foreign currency forward contracts. Net cash used in investing activities during the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to capital expenditures.
Financing Activities - Net cash used in financing activities during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 was primarily due to net payments on the revolving credit facility from the proceeds on the Brazil Sale Transaction. Net cash provided by financing activities during the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2024 was primarily due to net

draws on the revolving credit facility exceeding cash used to repurchase common stock and net cash received from the partial unwind agreements relating to a portion of the convertible note hedge and warrant transactions that were entered into in connection with the issuance of the 2025 Notes.
Financial Condition - Following is a summary of our current assets, current liabilities and working capital (deficit) as of the periods indicated:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
(dollars in thousands) | MARCH 30, 2025 | | DECEMBER 29, 2024 |
Current assets | $ | 318,881 | | | $ | 320,519 | |
Current liabilities | 778,465 | | | 952,336 | |
Working capital (deficit) | $ | (459,584) | | | $ | (631,817) | |
| | | |
| | | |
| | | |
Working capital (deficit) includes: (i) Unearned revenue primarily from unredeemed gift cards of $317.7 million and $374.1 million as of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively, and (ii) current operating lease liabilities of $161.2 million and $158.8 million as of March 30, 2025 and December 29, 2024, respectively, with the corresponding operating right-of-use assets recorded as non-current on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. 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.
Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards
For a description of recently issued Financial Accounting Standards that we adopted during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 and that are applicable to us and likely to have material effect on our consolidated financial statements but have not yet been adopted, see Note 1 - Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk from changes in commodity prices, labor inflation and foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We believe that there have been no material changes in our market risk since December 29, 2024. See Part II, Item 7A., “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024 for further information regarding market risk.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have established and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 30, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 15 - Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information discussed in this report, please consider the factors described in Part I, Item 1A., “Risk Factors,” in our 2024 Form 10-K which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have not been any material changes to the risk factors described in our 2024 Form 10-K, but these are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
There were no sales of equity securities during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025 that were not registered under the Securities Act.
Share Repurchases - In February 2024, our Board approved a share repurchase authorization of up to $350.0 million of our outstanding common stock as announced in our press release issued February 23, 2024 (the “2024 Share Repurchase Program”). The 2024 Share Repurchase Program will expire on August 13, 2025.
We did not repurchase any of our outstanding common stock during the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025. As of March 30, 2025, we had $96.8 million of remaining share repurchase authorization under the 2024 Share Repurchase Program.
Item 5. Other Information
Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans - During the thirteen weeks ended March 30, 2025, none of the Company’s directors or executive officers adopted, modified or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or any “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” (as defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K).
