Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. reported higher profitability for the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2026. Total revenues were $1,015.8M, up about 1.3% year over year, while net income attributable to Bloomin’ Brands rose to $31.3M and diluted EPS from continuing operations was $0.37 versus $0.29.
Restaurant-level operating margin improved to 12.4% from 12.0%, supported by U.S. comparable sales growth of 2.3% (including Outback Steakhouse +1.4% and Bonefish Grill +8.1%), menu pricing and productivity initiatives, partly offset by commodity and wage inflation and higher impairment and closure costs. Operating cash flow from continuing operations increased to $166.4M, helping reduce long-term debt to $702.8M and leaving $774.2M of revolver availability. Management continues a multi-year turnaround strategy focused on Outback and notes credit covenant issues at a 71-unit U.S. Outback franchisee’s lender, which has not yet affected royalty payments.
Bloomin’ Brands reported higher Q2 2026 results, with total revenues of $1,015.8 million, up 1.3% from $1,002.4 million in Q2 2025. Diluted EPS from continuing operations rose to $0.37 from $0.29, and adjusted diluted EPS increased to $0.39 from $0.32.
Profitability improved, with GAAP operating margin at 3.8% and adjusted operating margin at 4.0%, both above prior-year levels. Restaurant-level operating margin was 12.4%, helped by higher average check per person from pricing, productivity initiatives, and lower pre-opening and health insurance costs, partly offset by inflationary commodity, labor, operating, and advertising expenses.
U.S. comparable restaurant sales rose 2.3%, including 8.1% growth at Bonefish Grill and low-single-digit gains at Outback Steakhouse, Carrabba’s, and Fleming’s. Reflecting this performance and progress on the Outback Turnaround, the company raised 2026 diluted EPS guidance to $0.85–$0.95 and adjusted diluted EPS guidance to $0.90–$1.00, and issued Q3 2026 diluted EPS guidance of ($0.28)–($0.23) and adjusted diluted EPS of ($0.27)–($0.22).
