BRINKER INTERNATIONAL REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER OF FISCAL 2022 RESULTS

08/24/22

DALLAS, Aug. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Brinker International, Inc. (NYSE: EAT) today announced results for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 ended June 29, 2022 and provided a financial outlook for fiscal 2023.

"During my first sixty days I've spent considerable time in restaurants with our operators, exchanging ideas on how to make our operations more efficient, improve the guest experience, and grow the core business," said Kevin Hochman, Chief Executive Officer and President of Brinker International. "We're making quick interventions to better offset the tough inflationary headwinds and build sales momentum in the near term, as we work to meaningfully improve our four-wall economics and better position our business for long term sustainable and profitable growth."

Fiscal 2022 Highlights - Fourth Quarter
  • Brinker International reported Company sales of $987.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to $990.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2021, the fourth quarter and fiscal year included an additional operating week resulting in an increase of approximately $70 million to Total revenues and $0.34 to Net income per diluted share.
  • Operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $44.7 million as compared to $100.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Operating income, as a percentage of Total revenues, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was 4.4% as compared to 10.0% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. This decrease was primarily due to higher commodity costs, restaurant expenses, the impact of the additional operating week in fiscal 2021 and increased restaurant labor costs.
  • Restaurant operating margin, as a percentage of Company sales, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was 10.3% as compared to 16.9% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.
  • Net income per diluted share, on a GAAP basis, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $0.90 as compared to $1.58 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 including the impact of the additional operating week.
  • Net income per diluted share, excluding special items, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $1.15 as compared to $1.68 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 including the impact of the additional operating week.
  • Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was $100.2 million as compared to $144.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Full Year Fiscal 2023 Guidance

We anticipate the following for fiscal 2023. The uncertainties created by current macroeconomic conditions could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.

  • Total revenues are expected to be in the range of $3.9 - $4.0 billion;
  • Net income per diluted share, excluding special items, is expected to be in the range of $2.45 - $2.85;
  • Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $155 - $165 million;
  • Weighted average shares are expected to be in the range of 44 - 45 million.

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 decreased primarily due to the impact of the additional operating week in the prior year and lower To-Go sales, partially offset by dining room sales growth, the acquisition of 68 restaurants in fiscal 2022 previously owned by franchisees and higher delivery sales.
  • Chili's Franchise and other revenues increased primarily due to incremental gift card breakage resulting from a change in estimate.
  • Chili's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of Company sales, increased primarily due to higher commodity costs, sales deleverage, advertising, utilities expenses, rent expenses and increased restaurant labor costs including wage rates. These increases were partially offset by lower manager bonuses.

Maggiano's

  • Maggiano's Company sales increased primarily due to higher dining room and banquet sales, partially offset by the impact of the additional operating week in the prior year.
  • Maggiano's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of Company sales, increased primarily due to higher commodity costs, restaurant labor costs, manager bonuses and supervision expenses.

Income Taxes

  • On a GAAP basis, the effective income tax rate was a benefit of 18.2% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 which is lower than the statutory rate of 21.0% due to leverage of the FICA tip tax credit. Excluding the impact of special items, the effective income tax rate was a benefit of 5.8% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

Comparable Restaurant Sales include all restaurants that have been in operation for more than 18 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.

(2)

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

(3)

Chili's and Maggiano's 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.

(4)

Chili's domestic Comparable Restaurant Sales percentages are derived from sales generated by Company-owned and franchise-operated Chili's restaurants in the United States.

(5)

System-wide Comparable Restaurant Sales are derived from sales generated by Chili's and Maggiano's Company-owned and franchise-operated restaurants.

 

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)

Brinker believes presenting Adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure of our operating performance, excluding the impacts of financing costs, capital expenditures and special items. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation. We define Adjusted EBITDA as Operating income before Depreciation and amortization and Other (gains) and charges.
