Bloomin' Brands Announces 2024 Q4 Financial Results
Business Wire 26-Feb-2025 7:00 AM
Q4 Diluted EPS of $(0.93) and Q4 Adjusted Diluted EPS of $0.38
Provides Full Year 2025 Financial Outlook
Bloomin' Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ:BLMN) today reported results for the fourth quarter 2024 ("Q4 2024") and fiscal year ended December 29, 2024 ("Fiscal Year 2024") compared to the fourth quarter 2023 ("Q4 2023") and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 ("Fiscal Year 2023"). In 2023, the fourth quarter and fiscal year included an additional operating week ("53rd week") compared to Fiscal Year 2024.
CEO Comments
"In my first six months, I have become even more confident that we have iconic brands with a strong right to succeed in on-trend, large scale categories," said Mike Spanos, CEO. "I am also aware that our current results are not what we expect and are not representative of our potential. We are making changes to address our near-term execution as well as drive sustainable sales and profit growth. Our guidance for the first quarter and full year is reflective of where we are and our go-forward short term performance."
Sale of Majority Ownership of our Brazil Operations
On December 30, 2024, we completed the sale of 67% of our Brazil operations to a fund managed by an affiliate of Vinci Partners and retained a 33% interest. Following the closing of the sale, our subsidiary entered into amended and restated franchise agreements with all existing restaurants in Brazil, and these Brazil restaurants began operating as unconsolidated franchises.

| _______________(1) Adjusted diluted earnings per share for Q4 and fiscal year 2023 have been recast to remove the previously included non-GAAP adjustment of 5.1 million diluted weighted average common shares outstanding related to the convertible note hedge contracts entered into at the issuance of the 2025 Notes. See non-GAAP Measures later in this release. Also see Tables Four, Five and Six for details regarding the nature of diluted earnings per share adjustments for the periods presented.
(2) The 53rd week of 2023 was estimated to have positively impacted both GAAP and adjusted diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.15 for both the Q4 2023 and Fiscal Year 2023. For comparability, we have presented adjusted diluted earnings per share excluding the impact of the 53rd week of December 25, 2023 to December 31, 2023.

-
The decrease in Total revenues from continuing operations was primarily due to the 53rd week included in 2023 and the net impact of restaurant closures and openings.
-
GAAP operating income margin from continuing operations decreased from Q4 2023 primarily due to a decrease in restaurant-level operating margin, as detailed below, higher depreciation and amortization expense and impairment and closure costs. These decreases are partially offset by gains on foreign currency forward contracts within general and administrative expense.
-
Restaurant-level operating margin from continuing operations decreased from Q4 2023 primarily due to: (i) lower revenues, as discussed above, (ii) higher labor, operating and commodity costs, primarily due to inflation, (iii) higher insurance and legal expense, primarily from lapping favorable 2023 settlements and (iv) higher advertising expense. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in average check per person and the impact of certain cost-saving and productivity initiatives.
-
Adjusted income from operations from continuing operations primarily excludes certain net impairment and closure costs for Q4 2024 and Q4 2023, and gains on foreign currency forward contracts for Q4 2024.

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. |

| _______________(1) The following categories of revenue and operating expenses are not included in restaurant-level operating income and the corresponding margin because we do not consider them reflective of operating performance at the restaurant-level within a period: |
(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) Reflects changes in legal reserves in connection with certain collective action wage and hour lawsuits.
(3) Lease remeasurement gain within the U.S. segment in connection with closure of three U.S. and two Hong Kong Aussie Grill restaurants and the decision to close 36 predominantly older, underperforming U.S. restaurants (the "2023 Restaurant Closures").
(4) Costs incurred in connection with the transition to a new partner compensation program, within the U.S. segment.
(5) No adjustments for the periods presented. Excludes intercompany royalty expense of $6.5 million, $6.4 million, $25.9 million and $26.4 million for the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2024 and fourteen weeks ended December 31, 2023 and fiscal years 2024 and 2023, respectively, since the corresponding intercompany royalty revenue is included within Franchise and other revenues from continuing operations and is therefore already excluded from the calculation of restaurant-level operating income.

Fiscal year 2024, includes asset impairment, closure costs and severance primarily related to the 2023 Restaurant Closures, within the U.S. segment and the closure of nine restaurants in Hong Kong. The fourteen weeks and fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, include asset impairment, closure costs and severance primarily related to the 2023 Restaurant Closures, primarily within the U.S. segment.(3) Compensation costs and professional fees related to our CEO transition and severance related to other executive level changes.(4) Represents fees incurred in connection with a project-based strategic initiative. The costs incurred represent third-party consulting fees related to a strategic initiative to develop revenue growth management capabilities for Outback Steakhouse and are included in General and administrative expense. Given the magnitude and scope of this initiative and that it is not expected to recur in the foreseeable future after 2024, we consider these incremental expenses to be distinct from other consulting fees that we incur in the ordinary course of business and not reflective of the ongoing costs to operate our business or operating performance in the period.(5) Gains in connection with the foreign currency forward contracts to partially offset the risk associated with the payments from the sale of our Brazil operations.(6) Primarily includes professional fees, severance and other costs not correlated to our core operating performance during the period.(7) Includes operating income from our Brazil operations for the periods presented, including intercompany royalty expense. For 2024, includes non-GAAP adjustments of $68.3 million for impairment of assets held for sale, $3.3 million of transaction related professional fees and $1.5 million of other impairment. |

| _______________(1) Represents net (loss) income from continuing operations less net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.(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. For fiscal year 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 and Income from operations adjustments described in footnote 7 of the Adjusted Income from Operations Non-GAAP Reconciliations table above. For 2024, also includes adjustments for $33.8 million of deferred income tax expense resulting from the sale of our Brazil operations and the tax effects of non-GAAP adjustments. For fiscal year 2023, includes a $2.9 million adjustment related to a Brazil federal income tax exemption on certain state value added tax benefits.(6) Adjusted diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the thirteen weeks ended December 29, 2024 and the fourteen weeks ended December 31, 2023 and the fiscal years 2024 and 2023 were calculated including the effect of 0.5 million, 5.1 million, 1.6 million and 5.1 million dilutive securities, respectively, for outstanding 2025 Notes and the effect of zero, 3.3 million, 1.0 million and 3.4 million dilutive securities, respectively, for the Warrant Transactions, as defined below. In connection with the offering of the 2025 Notes, we entered into convertible note hedge transactions (the "Convertible Note Hedge Transactions") and concurrently entered into warrant transactions relating to the same number of shares of our common stock (the "Warrant Transactions"). If our stock price is in excess of the conversion price of the 2025 Notes ($10.60 and $11.14 as of December 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively), the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions deliver shares to offset dilution from the 2025 Notes, which, in combination with the Warrant Transactions, effectively offset dilution from the 2025 Notes up to the strike price of the Warrant Transactions ($14.84 and $15.60 as of December 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively). Adjusted diluted earnings per share and adjusted diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for both the fourteen weeks ended December 31, 2023 and fiscal year 2023 have been recast to remove the 5.1 million share benefit of the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions 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 2024. However, considering the adjusted net income position, adjusted diluted weighted average common shares outstanding incorporates securities that would have been dilutive for GAAP. |
