Brinker International Reports First Quarter Of Fiscal 2026 Results And Reiterates Fiscal 2026 Guidance

DALLAS, Oct. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Brinker International, Inc. (NYSE: EAT) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended September 24, 2025.

First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Financial Highlights

"Chili's continues to deliver industry leading results with first quarter sales of +21% and traffic of +13%, against a tough macro environment," said Kevin Hochman, President & CEO of Brinker International. "Our consistent investments in food, service, and atmosphere, combined with strong plans, give us confidence we can build on this growth and successfully lap the high sales comparisons in Q2 & Q3."

Company comparable restaurant sales increased 18.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, including 21.4% for Chili's. Chili's strong first-quarter performance reflected the brand's continued ability to drive innovation and disciplined execution. Menu enhancements and advertising initiatives helped strengthen the company's value proposition and attract new guests, while improved restaurant operations continue to drive repeat visits. Leveraging higher sales, the company improved margins, made additional investments in the business and repurchased $92.0 million of the company's common stock this quarter. The performance at Chili's exceeded our plans, while Maggiano's experienced traffic declines. The company has several initiatives in motion focused on improving the business as part of its Back to Maggiano's strategy, featuring abundant Italian American favorites with warm and attentive service.

Financial results for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 were as follows:

Full Year Fiscal 2026 Guidance

The Company is reiterating its guidance for fiscal 2026. The risks outlined in the Forward-Looking Statements paragraph of this press release, among other risks, could cause actual results to differ materially from forecasted results.

  • Total revenues are expected to be in the range of $5.60 billion - $5.70 billion;
  • Net income per diluted share, excluding special items, non-GAAP, is expected to be in the range of $9.90 - $10.50;
  • Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $270.0 million - $290.0 million; and
  • Weighted average shares are expected to be in the range of 45.0 million - 46.0 million.

We are unable to reliably forecast special items without unreasonable effort. As such, we do not present a reconciliation of forecasted non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP measures.

See Non-GAAP Information and Reconciliations section below for more details.

Chili's

  • Chili's Company sales increased primarily due to favorable comparable restaurant sales driven by higher traffic, favorable sales mix, and menu pricing.
  • Chili's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of Company sales, decreased primarily due to sales leverage and lower repairs and maintenance, partially offset by higher hourly labor and manager salaries, unfavorable menu item mix and commodity costs, and higher other restaurant expenses.
  • Chili's franchisees generated sales of approximately $269.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to $225.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Maggiano's

  • Maggiano's Company sales decreased primarily due to unfavorable comparable restaurant sales driven by lower traffic, partially offset by menu pricing.
  • Maggiano's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of Company sales, increased primarily due to sales deleverage, unfavorable menu item mix and commodity costs, higher advertising, delivery fees and to-go supplies, manager salaries and hourly labor, and other restaurant expenses.

Corporate

  • On a GAAP basis, the effective income tax rate was 7.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The effective income tax rate is lower than the statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to leverage of the FICA tip credit and excess tax benefits from stock based compensation of $11.7 million. Excluding the impact of special items, the effective income tax rate was an expense of 18.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026.

Non-GAAP Measures

Comparable Restaurant Sales include all restaurants that have been in operation for more than 18 full months. Restaurants temporarily closed 14 days or more are excluded from Comparable Restaurant Sales. Percentage amounts are calculated based on the comparable periods year-over-year.

(2)

Mix-Shift is calculated as the year-over-year percentage change in Company sales resulting from the change in menu items ordered by guests.

(3)

Franchise sales generated by franchisees are not included in Total revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Unaudited); however, we generate royalty revenues and advertising fees based on franchisee revenues, where applicable. We believe presenting Franchise Comparable Restaurant Sales provides investors relevant information regarding total brand performance.

(4)

Chili's domestic Comparable Restaurant Sales percentages are derived from sales generated by Company-owned and franchise-operated Chili's restaurants in the United States.

(5)

System-wide Comparable Restaurant Sales are derived from sales generated by Chili's and Maggiano's Company-owned and franchise-operated restaurants.

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 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 Provision for income taxes, Other income, net, Interest expenses, Depreciation and amortization and Other (gains) and charges.
