Disclosure Nature Of Operations And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies Narrative [Abstract]

NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Nature of Operations

We are principally engaged in the ownership, operation, development, and franchising of the Chili’s Grill & Bar (“Chili’s”) and Maggiano’s Little Italy (“Maggiano’s”) restaurant brands. At June 24, 2015, we owned, operated, or franchised 1,629 restaurants in the United States and 29 countries and two territories outside of the United States.

(b) Basis of Presentation

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brinker International, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

We have a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the last Wednesday in June. Fiscal years 2015, 2014, and 2013 which ended on June 24, 2015, June 25, 2014, and June 27, 2013, respectively, each contained 52 weeks.

We discovered an immaterial error related to the classification of certain revenues and expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the previously issued financial statements for the year ended June 25, 2014 primarily related to Maggiano’s delivery services. The amounts had previously been reported net instead of gross. The error did not impact net income as previously reported or any prior amounts reported on the consolidated balance sheets, statements of cash flows or statements of shareholders' (deficit) equity. We corrected the error by adjusting the previously reported consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the fifty-two week periods ended June 25, 2014 and June 27, 2013, which resulted in a $4.0 million, and a $3.6 million increase in franchise and other revenues and restaurant expenses, respectively.

Revenues are presented in two separate captions on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income to provide more clarity around company-owned restaurant revenue and operating expense trends. Company sales includes revenues generated by the operation of company-owned restaurants including gift card redemptions. Franchise and other revenues includes royalties, development fees, franchise fees, Maggiano's banquet service charge income, certain gift card activity (breakage and discounts), tabletop gaming revenue, retail food royalties and delivery fee income.

We report certain labor and related expenses in a separate caption on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income titled restaurant labor. Restaurant labor includes all compensation-related expenses, including benefits and incentive compensation, for restaurant team members at the general manager level and below. Labor-related expenses attributable to multi-restaurant (or above-restaurant) supervision is included in restaurant expenses.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and costs and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(d) Revenue Recognition

We record revenue from the sale of food, beverages and alcohol as products are sold. Initial fees received from a franchisee to establish a new franchise are recognized as income when we have performed our obligations required to assist the franchisee in opening a new franchise restaurant, which is generally upon the opening of such restaurant. Fees received for development arrangements are recognized as income upon payment of the fees. Continuing royalties, which are a percentage of net sales of franchised restaurants, are accrued as income when earned.

Proceeds from the sale of gift cards are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized as revenue when the gift card is redeemed by the holder. Breakage income represents the value associated with the portion of gift cards sold that will most likely never be redeemed. Based on our historical gift card redemption patterns and considering our gift cards have no expiration dates or dormancy fees, we can reasonably estimate the amount of gift card balances for which redemption is remote and record breakage income based on this estimate. We recognize breakage income within franchise and other revenues in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. We update our estimate of our breakage rate periodically and, if necessary, adjust the deferred revenue balance accordingly.

(e) Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that we would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, the accounting standards establish a three level hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, as follows:


•	Level 1—inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.


•	Level 2—inputs are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities.


•	Level 3—inputs are unobservable and reflect our own assumptions.

(f) Cash and Cash Equivalents

Our policy is to invest cash in excess of operating requirements in income-producing investments. Income-producing investments with original maturities of three months or less are reflected as cash equivalents.

(g) Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, represents their estimated net realizable value. Provisions for doubtful accounts are recorded based on management’s judgment regarding our ability to collect as well as the age of the receivables. Accounts receivable are written off when they are deemed uncollectible.

(h) Inventories

Inventories consist of food, beverages and supplies and are valued at the lower of cost or market, using the first-in, first-out or "FIFO" method.

(i) Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Buildings and leasehold improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the life of the lease, including certain renewal options, or the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 5 to 20 years. Furniture and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 3 to 10 years. Routine repair and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. Major replacements and improvements are capitalized.

We review the carrying amount of property and equipment semi-annually or when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, we record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. We determine fair value based on discounted projected future operating cash flows of the restaurants over their remaining service life using a risk adjusted discount rate that is commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Impairment charges are included in other gains and charges in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

(j) Operating Leases

Rent expense for leases that contain scheduled rent increases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, including cancelable option periods where failure to exercise such options would result in an economic penalty such that the renewal appears reasonably assured. The straight-line rent calculation and rent expense includes the rent holiday period, which is the period of time between taking control of a leased site and the rent commencement date. Contingent rents are generally amounts due as a result of sales in excess of amounts stipulated in certain restaurant leases and are included in rent expense as they are incurred. Landlord contributions are recorded when received as a deferred rent liability and amortized as a reduction of rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(k) Advertising

Advertising production costs are expensed in the period when the advertising first takes place. Other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs, net of advertising contributions from franchisees, were $94.3 million, $92.2 million and $82.8 million million in fiscal 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively, and are included in restaurant expenses in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

(l) Goodwill and Other Intangibles

Goodwill is not subject to amortization, but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Goodwill has been assigned to reporting units for purposes of impairment testing. Our two restaurant brands, Chili’s and Maggiano’s, are both reporting units and operating segments. We have established that the appropriate level to evaluate goodwill is at the operating segment level. The menu items, services offered and food preparation are virtually identical at each restaurant within the reporting unit and our targeted customer is consistent across each brand. We maintain a centralized purchasing department which manages all purchasing and distribution for our restaurants. In addition, contracts for our food supplies are negotiated at a consolidated level in order to secure the best prices and maintain similar quality across all of our brands. Local laws, regulations and other issues may result in slightly different legal and regulatory environments; however, the overall regulatory climate and economic characteristics within and across our operating segments are quite similar. As such, we believe that aggregating components is appropriate for the evaluation of goodwill.

Goodwill impairment tests consist of a comparison of each reporting unit’s fair value with its carrying value. We determine fair value based on a combination of market based values and discounted projected future operating cash flows of the restaurant brands using a risk adjusted discount rate that is commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. We determined that there was no goodwill impairment during our annual test as the fair value of our reporting units was substantially in excess of the carrying value. No indicators of impairment were identified through the end of fiscal year 2015. See Note 5 for additional disclosures related to goodwill.

We occasionally acquire restaurants from our franchisees. Goodwill from these acquisitions represents the excess of the cost of the business acquired over the net amounts assigned to assets acquired, including identifiable intangible assets, primarily reacquired franchise rights. In connection with the sale of restaurants, we will allocate goodwill from the reporting unit, or restaurant brand, to the disposal group in the determination of the gain or loss on the disposition. The allocation is based on the relative fair values of the disposal group and the portion of the reporting unit that was retained. If we dispose of a restaurant brand and all related restaurants, the entire goodwill balance associated with the reporting unit or brand will be included in the disposal group for purposes of determining the gain or loss on the disposition. Additionally, if we sell restaurants with reacquired franchise rights, we will include those assets in the gain or loss on the disposition.

Reacquired franchise rights are also reviewed for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, we record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. Impairment charges are included in other gains and charges in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

(m) Liquor Licenses

The costs of obtaining non-transferable liquor licenses from local government agencies are expensed over the specified term of the license. The costs of purchasing transferable liquor licenses through open markets in jurisdictions with a limited number of authorized liquor licenses are capitalized as indefinite-lived intangible assets and included in intangibles.

Liquor licenses are reviewed for impairment semi-annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, we record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. We determine fair value based on prices in the open market for licenses in same or similar jurisdictions. Impairment charges are included in other gains and charges in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

(n) Sales Taxes

Sales taxes collected from guests are excluded from revenues. The obligation is included in accrued liabilities until the taxes are remitted to the appropriate taxing authorities.

(o) Self-Insurance Program

We are self-insured for certain losses related to health, general liability and workers’ compensation. We maintain stop loss coverage with third party insurers to limit our total exposure. The self-insurance liability represents an estimate of the ultimate cost of claims incurred and unpaid as of the balance sheet date. The estimated liability is not discounted and is established based upon analysis of historical data and actuarial estimates, and is reviewed on a quarterly basis to ensure that the liability is appropriate. If actual trends, including the severity or frequency of claims, differ from our estimates, our financial results could be impacted. Accrued and other liabilities include the estimated incurred but unreported costs to settle unpaid claims.

(p) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

We record a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, in an income tax return. We recognize any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

(q) Stock-Based Compensation

We measure and recognize compensation cost at fair value for all share-based payments. We record compensation expense using a graded-vesting schedule or on a straight-line basis, as applicable, over the vesting period, or to the date on which retirement eligibility is achieved, if shorter (non-substantive vesting period approach).

Certain employees are eligible to receive stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and restricted stock units, while non-employee members of the Board of Directors are eligible to receive stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units. Performance shares represent a right to receive shares of common stock upon satisfaction of company performance goals at the end of a three-year cycle. The fair value of performance shares is determined on the date of grant based on a Monte Carlo simulation model. The fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units are based on our closing stock price on the date of grant.

Stock-based compensation expense totaled approximately $15.0 million, $16.9 million and $16.6 million for fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income related to stock-based compensation expense was approximately $5.5 million, $6.9 million and $6.6 million during fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The weighted average fair values of option grants were $11.72, $14.75 and $12.94 during fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:



	2015		2014		2013
Expected volatility	31.0	%	47.7	%	53.4	%
Risk-free interest rate	1.6	%	1.6	%	0.7	%
Expected lives	5 years		5 years		5 years
Dividend yield	2.2	%	2.2	%	2.4	%

Expected volatility and the expected life of stock options are based on historical experience. The risk-free rate is based on the yield of a Treasury Note with a term equal to the expected life of the stock options. The dividend yield is based on the most recent quarterly dividend per share declared and the closing stock price on the declaration date.

(r) Preferred Stock

Our Board of Directors is authorized to provide for the issuance of 1.0 million preferred shares with a par value of $1.00 per share, in one or more series, and to fix the voting rights, liquidation preferences, dividend rates, conversion rights, redemption rights, and terms, including sinking fund provisions, and certain other rights and preferences. As of June 24, 2015, no preferred shares were issued.

(s) Shareholders’ (Deficit) Equity

In August 2014, our Board of Directors authorized a $350.0 million increase to our existing share repurchase program resulting in total authorizations of $3,935.0 million. We repurchased approximately 5.4 million shares of our common stock for $306.3 million during fiscal 2015 including shares purchased as part of our share repurchase program and to satisfy team member tax withholding obligations on the vesting of restricted shares. As of June 24, 2015, approximately $361 million was available under our share repurchase authorizations. Our stock repurchase plan has been and will be used to return capital to shareholders and to minimize the dilutive impact of stock options and other share-based awards. We evaluate potential share repurchases under our plan based on several factors, including our cash position, share price, operational liquidity, proceeds from divestitures, borrowings and planned investment and financing needs. Repurchased common stock is reflected as a reduction of shareholders’ equity. During fiscal 2015, approximately 765,000 stock options were exercised resulting in cash proceeds of $16.3 million.

We paid dividends of $70.8 million to common stock shareholders during fiscal 2015, compared to $63.4 million in the prior year. Additionally, we declared a quarterly dividend of approximately $17.0 million, or $0.28 per share, in May 2015 which was paid on June 25, 2015.

(t) Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Fiscal 2015 and 2014 comprehensive income consists of net income and foreign currency translation adjustments. The foreign currency translation adjustment represents the unrealized impact of translating the financial statements of the Canadian restaurants and the joint venture with CMR from their respective functional currencies to U.S. dollars. This amount is not included in net income and would only be realized upon disposition of the businesses. The accumulated other comprehensive loss is presented on the consolidated balance sheets. We reinvest foreign earnings, therefore, United States deferred income taxes have not been provided on foreign earnings. Fiscal 2013 comprehensive income consists of net income.

(u) Net Income Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For the calculation of diluted net income per share, the basic weighted average number of shares is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted share awards, determined using the treasury stock method. We had approximately 119,000 stock options and restricted share awards outstanding at June 24, 2015, 113,000 stock options and restricted share awards outstanding at June 25, 2014, and 193,000 stock options and restricted share awards outstanding at June 27, 2013 that were not included in the dilutive earnings per share calculation because the effect would have been antidilutive.

Basic weighted average shares outstanding is reconciled to diluted weighted average shares outstanding as follows (in thousands):



	2015	2014	2013
Basic weighted average shares outstanding	63,072	66,251	71,788
Dilutive stock options	569	853	955
Dilutive restricted shares	763	1,048	1,415
	1,332	1,901	2,370
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding	64,404	68,152	74,158

(v) Segment Reporting

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Two or more operating segments may be aggregated into a single operating segment if they have similar economic characteristics and are similar in the following areas:


•	The nature of products and services


•	Nature of production processes


•	Type or class of customer


•	Methods used to distribute products or provide services


•	The nature of the regulatory environment, if applicable

Our two brands have similar types of products, contracts, customers and employees and all operate as full-service restaurants offering lunch and dinner in the casual-dining segment of the industry. In addition, we have similar long-term average margins across our brands. Therefore, we believe we meet the criteria for aggregating operating segments into a single reporting segment.

Acquisition	12 Months Ended
Acquisition	Jun. 24, 2015
Business Combinations [Abstract]
ACQUISITION OF CHILI'S RESTAURANTS	ACQUISITION OF CHILI'S RESTAURANTS On June 1, 2013, we completed the acquisition of 11 Chili's restaurants in Alberta, Canada from an existing franchisee for $24.6 million in cash. The results of operations of the Canadian restaurants are included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The assets and liabilities of the Canadian restaurants were recorded at their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition based on a preliminary estimate. During fiscal 2014, we completed the valuation of the assets and liabilities resulting in an adjustment of approximately $8.4 million to goodwill. The excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill. The majority of the goodwill balance is deductible for tax purposes. The portion of the purchase price attributable to goodwill represents benefits expected as a result of the acquisition, including sales and unit growth opportunities. As a result of the acquisition, we incurred expenses of approximately $0.4 million during fiscal 2013, which are included in other gains and charges in our consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Pro-forma financial information of the combined entities for periods prior to the acquisition is not presented due to the immaterial impact of the financial results of the Canadian restaurants on our consolidated financial statements.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for a business combination (or series of individually immaterial business combinations) completed during the period, including background, timing, and recognized assets and liabilities. The disclosure may include leverage buyout transactions (as applicable).

INVESTMENTS AND OTHER DISPOSITIONS	Jun. 24, 2015
Disclosure Investments And Other Dispositions Narrative [Abstract]
INVESTMENTS AND OTHER DISPOSITIONS	INVESTMENTS AND OTHER DISPOSITIONS (a) Investments We have a joint venture agreement with CMR, S.A.B. de C.V. to develop 50 Chili’s restaurants in Mexico. At June 24, 2015, 38 Chili’s restaurants were operating in the joint venture. We account for the Mexico joint venture investment under the equity method of accounting and record our share of the net income or loss of the investee within operating income since their operations are similar to our ongoing operations. These amounts have been included in restaurant expense in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income due to the immaterial nature of the amounts. The investment in the joint venture is included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. In fiscal 2011, we entered into a joint venture investment with BTTO Participacoes Ltda (“BTTO”) to develop Chili's restaurants in Brazil. In April 2012, we purchased BTTO’s interest in the joint venture and began consolidating the entity’s results. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, we fully impaired the property and equipment and recorded a charge in other gains and charges in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. The restaurant was subsequently closed in July 2013. (b) Other Dispositions In April 2013, we sold our remaining ownership interest in Romano’s Macaroni Grill (“Macaroni Grill”) for approximately $8.3 million in cash proceeds. This amount was recorded as a gain in other gains and charges in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income in fiscal 2013.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would favorably affect the effective tax rate if resolved in our favor due to the effect of deferred tax benefits was $4.1 million and $4.9 million as of June 24, 2015 and June 25, 2014, respectively. During the next twelve months, we anticipate that it is reasonably possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits could be reduced by approximately $0.8 million ($0.6 million of which would affect the effective tax rate due to the effect of deferred tax benefits) either because our tax position will be sustained upon audit or as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations for specific jurisdictions.

We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. During fiscal 2015, we recognized an expense of approximately $0.2 million in interest. During fiscal 2014 and 2013, we recognized a benefit of approximately $0.3 million and an expense of $0.5 million, respectively, in interest due to the reduction of accrued interest from statute expirations and settlements, net of accrued interest for remaining positions. As of June 24, 2015, we had $2.2 million ($1.5 million net of a $0.7 million Federal deferred tax benefit) of interest and penalties accrued, compared to $2.5 million ($1.7 million net of a $0.8 million Federal deferred tax benefit) at June 25, 2014.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

During the first nine months of fiscal 2015, $97 million was drawn from the $250 million revolving credit facility primarily to fund share repurchases, and we paid the required quarterly term loan payments totaling $18.7 million. In March 2015, we terminated the existing credit facility including both the $250 million revolver and the term loan and entered into a new $750 million revolving credit facility. Approximately $345.8 million was drawn from the new revolver and the proceeds were used to pay off the outstanding balances of the term loan and $250 million revolver in the amount of $168.8 million and $177.0 million, respectively. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, an additional $38.0 million was drawn from the new revolver primarily to fund share repurchases. Subsequent to the end of the fiscal year, an additional $135.5 million was borrowed from the $750 million revolving credit facility primarily to fund the acquisition of a franchisee which owns 103 Chili's restaurants. See Note 16 for additional disclosures related to the acquisition.

The maturity date of the $750 million revolving credit facility is March 12, 2020. The revolving credit facility bears interest of LIBOR plus an applicable margin, which is a function of our credit rating and debt to cash flow ratio, but is subject to a maximum of LIBOR plus 2.00%. Based on our current credit rating, we are paying interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.38%. One month LIBOR at June 24, 2015 was approximately 0.19%. As of June 24, 2015, $366.2 million of credit is available under the revolving credit facility.

In May 2013, we issued $550.0 million of notes consisting of two tranches - $250.0 million of 2.60% notes due in May 2018 and $300.0 million of 3.88% notes due in May 2023. We received proceeds totaling approximately $549.5 million prior to debt issuance costs and utilized the proceeds to redeem the 5.75% notes due in June 2014, pay down the revolver and fund share repurchases. The notes require semi-annual interest payments which began in the second quarter of fiscal 2014.

Our debt agreements contain various financial covenants that, among other things, require the maintenance of certain leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios. We are currently in compliance with all financial covenants.

Excluding capital lease obligations (see Note 9) and interest, our long-term debt maturities for the five years following June 24, 2015 and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES

(a) Non-Financial Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

We review the carrying amount of property and equipment and transferable liquor licenses semi-annually or when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, we record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value.

We determine the fair value of property and equipment based on discounted projected future operating cash flows of the restaurants over their remaining service life using a risk adjusted discount rate that is commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Based on our semi-annual review, during fiscal 2015, long-lived assets with a carrying value of $2.3 million, primarily related to four underperforming restaurants including one restaurant located in Canada, were determined to have no fair value resulting in an impairment charge of $2.3 million. In fiscal 2014, long-lived assets with a carrying value of $5.8 million, primarily related to nine underperforming restaurants, were written down to their fair value of $1.3 million resulting in an impairment charge of $4.5 million.

We determine the fair value of transferable liquor licenses based on prices in the open market for licenses in the same or similar jurisdictions. Based on our semi-annual review, during fiscal 2015, four transferable liquor licenses with a carrying value of $0.8 million were written down to the fair value of $0.6 million resulting in an impairment charge of $0.2 million. In fiscal 2014, we determined there was no impairment.

We determine the fair value of reacquired franchise rights based on discounted projected future operating cash flows of the restaurants associated with these franchise rights. We review the carrying amount annually or when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount is not recoverable, we record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. During fiscal 2015, we performed the annual review of reacquired franchise rights and determined there was no impairment. Subsequent to the annual review, we performed the semi-annual review of long-lived assets and determined that one restaurant located in Canada was fully impaired which indicated that the related reacquired franchise rights had no fair value resulting in an impairment charge of $0.4 million. During fiscal 2014, we completed the valuation of the reacquired franchise rights related to the Canada acquisition and recorded the asset at an estimated fair value of $8.9 million in intangibles on the consolidated balance sheet. In fiscal 2014, we reviewed the reacquired franchise rights during our annual impairment analysis and determined there was no impairment.

All impairment charges related to underperforming restaurants, liquor licenses and reacquired franchise rights were included in other gains and charges in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the periods presented.

The following table presents fair values for those assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at June 24, 2015 and June 25, 2014 (in thousands):

(b) Other Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts because of the short maturity of these items. The carrying amount of debt outstanding related to the revolving credit facility approximates fair value as the interest rate on this instrument approximates current market rates (Level 2). The fair values of the 2.60% notes and 3.88% notes are based on quoted market prices and are considered Level 2 fair value measurements.

The carrying amounts and fair values of the 2.60% notes and 3.88% notes are as follows (in thousands):

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Our shareholders approved stock-based compensation plans including the Stock Option and Incentive Plan and the Stock Option and Incentive Plan for Non-Employee Directors and Consultants (collectively, the “Plans”). In November 2013, our shareholders approved an amendment to the Stock Option and Incentive Plan increasing the number of shares authorized for issuance by 2.0 million shares. The total number of shares authorized for issuance to employees and non-employee directors and consultants under the Plans is currently 37.3 million. The Plans provide for grants of options to purchase our common stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and stock appreciation rights.

(a) Stock Options

Expense related to stock options issued to eligible employees under the Plans is recognized using a graded-vesting schedule over the vesting period or to the date on which retirement eligibility is achieved, if shorter. Stock options generally vest over a period of 1 to 4 years and have contractual terms to exercise of 8 years. Full or partial vesting of awards may occur upon a change in control (as defined in the Plans), or upon an employee’s death, disability or involuntary termination.

Transactions during fiscal 2015 were as follows (in thousands, except option prices):



	Number of Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Options outstanding at June 25, 2014	1,701		$	24.80
Granted	279		51.24
Exercised	(765	)	21.25
Forfeited or canceled	(42	)	34.45
Options outstanding at June 24, 2015	1,173		$	33.08	4.8	$	28,849
Options exercisable at June 24, 2015	624		$	24.06	3.4	$	20,907

At June 24, 2015, unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options totaled approximately $2.5 million and will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years. The intrinsic value of options exercised totaled approximately $28.1 million, $25.7 million and $22.4 million during fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The tax benefit realized on options exercised totaled approximately $9.2 million, $8.9 million and $8.1 million during fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

(b) Restricted Share Awards

Restricted share awards consist of performance shares, restricted stock and restricted stock units. Performance shares and most restricted stock units issued to eligible employees under the Plans generally vest in full on the third anniversary of the date of grant, while restricted stock units issued to eligible employees under our career equity plan generally vest upon each employee’s retirement from the Company. Expense is recognized ratably over the vesting period, or to the date on which retirement eligibility is achieved, if shorter. Restricted stock and restricted stock units issued to non-employee directors under the Plans generally vest in full on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant or upon each director’s retirement from the Board and are expensed when granted. Full or partial vesting of awards may occur upon a change in control (as defined in the Plans), or upon an employee’s death, disability or involuntary termination.

Transactions during fiscal 2015 were as follows (in thousands, except fair values):



	Number of Restricted Share Awards		Weighted Average Fair Value Per Award
Restricted share awards outstanding at June 25, 2014	1,508		$	29.39

Vested	(567	)	20.68
Forfeited	(64	)	36.58
Restricted share awards outstanding at June 24, 2015	1,159		$	38.44

At June 24, 2015, unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted share awards totaled approximately $13.7 million and will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.3 years. The fair value of shares that vested during fiscal 2015, 2014, and 2013 totaled approximately $34.2 million, $42.2 million and $22.0 million, respectively.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In connection with the sale of restaurants to franchisees and brand divestitures, we have, in certain cases, guaranteed lease payments. As of June 24, 2015 and June 25, 2014, we have outstanding lease guarantees or are secondarily liable for $98.9 million and $116.5 million, respectively. This amount represents the maximum potential liability of future payments under the guarantees. These leases have been assigned to the buyers and expire at the end of the respective lease terms, which range from fiscal 2016 through fiscal 2025. In the event of default, the indemnity and default clauses in our assignment agreements govern our ability to pursue and recover damages incurred. No material liabilities have been recorded as of June 25, 2014, as the likelihood of default by the buyers on the assignment agreements was deemed to be less than probable. Our secondary liability position will be reduced by approximately $19.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 related to the Pepper Dining acquisition. See Note 16 for additional disclosures related to the acquisition. We provide letters of credit to various insurers to collateralize obligations for outstanding claims. As of June 24, 2015, we had $32.1 million in undrawn standby letters of credit outstanding. All standby letters of credit are renewable annually. Evaluating contingencies related to litigation is a complex process involving subjective judgment on the potential outcome of future events and the ultimate resolution of litigated claims may differ from our current analysis. Accordingly, we review the adequacy of accruals and disclosures pertaining to litigated matters each quarter in consultation with legal counsel and we assess the probability and range of possible losses associated with contingencies for potential accrual in the consolidated financial statements. In August 2004, certain current and former hourly restaurant team members filed a putative class action lawsuit against us in California Superior Court alleging violations of California labor laws with respect to meal periods and rest breaks, styled as Hohnbaum, et al. v. Brinker Restaurant Corp., et al. On August 6, 2014, the parties reached a preliminary settlement agreement, which remained subject to court approval, to resolve all claims in exchange for a settlement payment not to exceed $56.5 million. On December 12, 2014, the court granted final approval of the settlement agreement. In February 2015, we funded the settlement in the amount of $44.0 million against our previously established reserve. We do not expect any further payments related to this matter. We are engaged in various other legal proceedings and have certain unresolved claims pending. Reserves have been established based on our best estimates of our potential liability in certain of these matters. Based upon consultation with legal counsel, Management is of the opinion that there are no matters pending or threatened which are expected to have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events [Text Block]	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On June 25, 2015, we completed the acquisition of Pepper Dining Holding Corp. ("Pepper Dining"), a franchisee of 103 Chili’s® Grill & Bar restaurants primarily located in the Northeast and Southeast United States. The purchase price of $106.5 million was funded with availability under our existing credit facility. The results of operations of these restaurants will be included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition beginning in fiscal 2016. The acquired restaurants are expected to generate approximately $2.6 million of average annual revenue per restaurant in fiscal 2016 which will be partially offset by the loss of average annual royalty revenues of approximately $104,000 per restaurant. We are in the process of evaluating the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired through internal studies and third-party valuations and expect to complete a preliminary purchase price allocation in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. Subsequent to the end of the fiscal year, an additional $135.5 million was borrowed from the $750 million revolving credit facility primarily to fund the acquisition of Pepper Dining. Subsequent to the end of the fiscal year, we repurchased 766,000 shares for approximately $44.0 million as part of our share repurchase program. We also repurchased approximately 74,000 shares for $4.1 million to satisfy team member tax withholding obligations on the vesting of primarily performance shares. On August 20, 2015, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.32 per share effective with the September 2015 dividend. Our Board of Directors also authorized an additional $250 million in share repurchases, bringing the total authorization to $4,185 million.
