Darden Restaurants delivered higher sales but mixed earnings in its latest quarter. Sales rose to $3.35 billion for the quarter and $9.49 billion for the first nine months of fiscal 2026, up 5.9% and 7.8% from a year earlier, helped by strong same-restaurant growth, new units and the Chuy’s acquisition.
Quarterly net earnings slipped to $306.8 million with diluted EPS of $2.65, while year‑to‑date net earnings increased to $801.8 million and EPS to $6.87. The company is reshaping its portfolio by selling Olive Garden Canada to a franchise partner and planning to close about 14 Bahama Breeze locations while converting the rest to other Darden brands. Management expects full‑year 2026 sales growth of about 9.5%, same‑restaurant sales growth around 4.5% and approximately 70 new restaurant openings, supported by $750–$775 million of capital spending.
Darden Restaurants reported stronger quarterly and year-to-date results, reflecting both organic growth and contributions from recent acquisitions.

For the first six months of fiscal 2026, sales grew to $6.15 billion from $5.65 billion and net earnings increased to $495.0 million from $422.3 million, helped by a blended same-restaurant sales increase and the addition of 103 Chuy’s locations. Darden continues to return capital through dividends of $3.00 per share year-to-date and share repurchases of about $404 million, while managing a sizable lease and debt portfolio. The company expects fiscal 2026 sales growth between 8.5% and 9.3%, including a benefit from a 53rd week.
