BLMN
Earnings
Guidance Update
New Projects/Investments
- Bloomin’ Brands reported Q4 2025 revenue of approximately $975.2 million, with flat U.S. comparable-restaurant sales and overall traffic up roughly 50 basis points. The adjusted/non-GAAP EPS was about $0.25–$0.26, beating expectations, and the net loss narrowed.
- Management provided FY 2026 guidance for U.S. comparable-sales growth of 0.5–2.5% and diluted EPS of $0.70–$0.85, stating that fiscal 2026 will be an "investment year" focused on an Outback turnaround.
- Despite the small EPS beat, revenue missed Street estimates, leading to the stock trading down after the release. Management attributed recent traffic momentum to improved execution, value offers like Outback’s Aussie 3-Course, and loyalty programs.
- Third-party financial data highlighted balance-sheet and solvency concerns, including a high debt-to-equity ratio of 6.38, a low current ratio of 0.45, and an Altman Z-Score of 0.84, placing the company in a "distress" zone with elevated bankruptcy risk within two years.
- Bloomin’ Brands' CFO, Eric C. Christel, recently purchased 150,000 shares for an estimated $957,000.
