BRINKER INTERNATIONAL REPORTS THIRD QUARTER OF FISCAL 2023 RESULTS
DALLAS, May 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Brinker International, Inc. (NYSE: EAT) today announced its financial results, for the third quarter ended March 29, 2023.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2023 Financial Highlights
Brinker International reported net income per diluted share of $1.12, in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, a 38% increase compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Net income per diluted share, excluding special items (non-GAAP), was $1.23 in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, a 33.7% increase compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2022. Our results for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 were driven by an increase in company sales as well as improved food, beverage, and labor costs. Chili's comparable restaurant sales were 9.6% and Maggiano's were 21.6% resulting in a 10.8% increase for Brinker. Comparable restaurant sales improved due to menu pricing and favorable item mix. These operational improvements resulted in operating income margin increasing to 5.9% and restaurant operating margin (non-GAAP) increasing to 13.4% for the third quarter. Chili's initiated an updated marketing strategy focused on TV, digital, and social media advertising and continued to improve the guest experience by strengthening investments in restaurant facilities and labor.
"We are pleased to report quarterly operating performance for Brinker International that represents a nice step forward for our strategy, enabling us to make needed investments into the business, translating into an improved guest experience," said Kevin Hochman, Chief Executive Officer and President of Brinker International. "In the quarter, we also reengaged our Guests with a broader Chili's marketing campaign including TV, digital and social media. The campaign was well received by our Guests and is clearly a sales lever we can use to drive future results."

Chili's
- Chili's Company sales increased primarily due to increased menu pricing, favorable menu item mix, and higher dine-in traffic, partially offset by lower off-premise traffic.
- Chili's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of Company sales, decreased slightly primarily due to sales leverage, offset by commodity price inflation, higher hourly labor expenses due to an increase in hourly wage rates and staffing levels, advertising, manager salaries and bonus, repair and maintenance expenses, utilities, and rent expense.
- Chili's franchisees generated sales of approximately $213.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $190.4 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
Maggiano's
- Maggiano's Company sales increased primarily due to higher dining room and banquet traffic, increased menu pricing and favorable menu item mix.
- Maggiano's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of Company sales, decreased primarily due to sales leverage. The decreases were partially offset by higher hourly labor due to an increase in hourly wage rates and staffing levels, commodity price inflation, manager salaries, repair and maintenance expenses, delivery expenses, property taxes, and utilities.
Income Taxes
- On a GAAP basis, the effective income tax rate was a benefit of 0.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The effective income tax rate is lower than the statutory rate of 21% due primarily to leverage of the FICA tip credit and the impact of aligning fiscal 2023 year-to-date tax expense with the current estimated annual tax rate. Excluding the impact of special items, the effective income tax rate was an expense of 2.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023.

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)
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of financial performance. Brinker believes presenting Adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure of our operating performance, excluding the impacts of financing costs, capital expenditures and special items. We define Adjusted EBITDA as Net income before (Benefit) Provision for income taxes, Other income, net, Interest expenses, Depreciation and amortization and Other (gains) and charges.
