Bloomin’ Brands Announces 2025 Q1 Financial Results

Q1 Diluted EPS of $0.50 and Q1 Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.59

TAMPA, Fla., May 7, 2025 - Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLMN) today reported results for the first quarter 2025 (“Q1 2025”) compared to the first quarter 2024 (“Q1 2024”).

CEO Comments

“We continue to make progress on our operating priorities to simplify the business and consistently deliver a great guest experience while balancing our longer-term priorities to turnaround Outback and drive sustainable sales and profit growth,” said Mike Spanos, CEO. “We are navigating a choppy macro environment and are leaning in to our abundant everyday value offerings. This is reflected in our current guidance.”

Diluted EPS and Adjusted Diluted EPS

The following table reconciles Diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations to Adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the periods indicated (unaudited):

Q1
2025 2024 CHANGE
Diluted earnings (loss) per share: $ 0.50 $ (1.00) $ 1.50
Adjustments (1) 0.09 1.64 (1.55)
Adjusted diluted earnings per share (1) $ 0.59 $ 0.64 $ (0.05)

___________________

(1)Adjustments for Q1 2025 primarily include severance and other costs incurred as a result of transformational and restructuring initiatives. Adjustments for Q1 2024 primarily include losses in connection with the retirement of the $83.6 million of our outstanding convertible notes and charges in connection with the 2023 Restaurant Closures. See non-GAAP Measures later in this release. Also see Tables Four, Five and Six for details regarding the nature of diluted earnings (loss) per share adjustments for the periods presented.

First Quarter Financial Results from Continuing Operations

(dollars in millions, unaudited) Q1 2025 Q1 2024 CHANGE
Total revenues $ 1,049.6 $ 1,069.1 (1.8) %
GAAP operating income margin 5.5 % 6.6 % (1.1) %
Adjusted operating income margin (1) 6.1 % 7.8 % (1.7) %
Restaurant-level operating margin (1) 13.9 % 15.4 % (1.5) %
Adjusted restaurant-level operating margin (1) 13.9 % 15.5 % (1.6) %

___________________

(1)See non-GAAP Measures later in this release. Also see Tables Four and Five for details regarding the nature of restaurant-level operating margin and operating income margin adjustments, respectively.

•The decrease in Total revenues was primarily due to the net impact of restaurant closures and openings and a decrease in comparable restaurant sales.

•GAAP operating income margin from continuing operations decreased from Q1 2024 primarily due to a decrease in restaurant-level operating margin, as detailed below, and severance and other costs incurred as a

result of transformational and restructuring initiatives. These decreases were partially offset by Q1 2024 impairment and closure costs in connection with the Q1 2024 closure of 36 U.S. restaurants.

•Restaurant-level operating margin from continuing operations decreased from Q1 2024 primarily due to: (i) lower revenues, as discussed above, (ii) higher operating, labor and commodity costs, primarily due to inflation, and (iii) unfavorable product cost mix. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in average check per person, primarily due to pricing, and the impact of certain cost-saving and productivity initiatives.

•Adjusted income from continuing operations primarily excludes Q1 2024 impairment and closure costs in connection with the Q1 2024 closure of 36 U.S. restaurants, and severance and other costs incurred in Q1 2025 as a result of transformational and restructuring initiatives.

Non-GAAP Measures

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

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

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

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

_________________

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

(a)Franchise and other revenues, which are earned primarily from franchise royalties and other non-food and beverage revenue streams, such as rental and sublease income.

(b)Depreciation and amortization, which, although substantially all of which is related to restaurant-level assets, represent historical sunk costs rather than cash outlays for the restaurants.

(c)General and administrative expense, which includes primarily non-restaurant-level costs associated with support of the restaurants and other activities at our corporate offices.

(d)Asset impairment charges and restaurant closing costs, which are not reflective of ongoing restaurant performance in a period.

(2)See Table Five Adjusted Income from Operations and Margin Non-GAAP Reconciliations above for details regarding Income from operations adjustments.

(3)Includes losses in connection with the partial repurchase of the 2025 Notes, including settlements of the related convertible senior note hedges and warrants.

(4)Includes the tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments determined based on the nature of the underlying non-GAAP adjustments and their relevant jurisdictional tax rates for all periods presented. 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 partial repurchase of the 2025 Notes.

(5)Includes net (loss) income from our Brazil operations for the periods presented.

(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 fiscal year 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.

Following is a summary of the financial statement line item classification of the net income (loss) adjustments from continuing operations:
