CEO
Comments
“Our momentum continued in the third quarter, and it is clear that our investments in
the customer experience are working,” said Liz Smith, CEO. “At Outback, sales and traffic continued to meaningfully out-pace the industry, and we have increased our U.S. sales guidance for the year to reflect this strong performance. We
have also increased our adjusted EPS guidance for the year, and now expect adjusted earnings growth of between 18% and 23% in 2018. We are on track for a very good year at Bloomin’ Brands.”

• |
The increase in total revenues was primarily due to higher U.S. comparable restaurant sales and the
net impact of restaurant openings and closures, partially offset by foreign currency translation. |
• |
The increase in GAAP operating income margin was primarily due to lower impairment and restaurant
closing expenses, productivity initiatives and increases in average check. This increase was partially offset by commodity inflation, labor inflation, higher incentive compensation expense and lower comparable sales in Brazil. The impairment and
restaurant closing expenses are excluded from our adjusted operating income margin. |
• |
There is a $7.0 million change in year-over-year incentive compensation expense driving an unfavorable
70 basis point change in Q3 2018 operating income margin. This was primarily driven by a reduction in incentive compensation expense in Q3
2017. |
• |
The effective income tax rate in Q3 2018 includes benefits from discrete tax items in the quarter and
exercises of certain legacy stock options. These items benefited Q3 2018 diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.02. |

Dividend Declaration and Share Repurchases
On October 24, 2018, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of
$0.09 per share to be paid on November 21, 2018 to all stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 14,
2018.
On February 16, 2018, our Board of Directors approved a $150.0 million share repurchase program. As of October 29, 2018, we had $51.0 million remaining under this authorization. This authorization will
expire on August 16, 2019.
Fiscal 2018
Financial Outlook
We are updating our 2018 financial outlook for adjusted diluted earnings per share, U.S. comparable
restaurant sales and our tax rate. All other aspects of our full-year financial outlook as previously communicated in our July 30, 2018 earnings release remain intact. Our tax rate is now expected to be lower due to the tax benefit from the exercise
of certain legacy stock options. See the table below for more
detail.

___________________
(1) |
The primary difference between our U.S. GAAP outlook and our adjusted outlook for both diluted earnings
per share and effective income tax rate is driven by adjustments through Q3 2018 as reflected in Table 5 of this release, as well as anticipated adjustments in connection with our relocation and restaurant closure
initiatives. |
(2) |
Combined U.S. comparable restaurant sales outlook is based on a comparable calendar basis. For 2018,
this will compare the 52 weeks from January 1, 2018 through December 30, 2018 to the 52 weeks from January 2, 2017 through December 31,
2017. |

Impact of the Adoption of New Revenue Recognition Standard
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 “Revenue Recognition (Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. Refer to Exhibit 99.2 to our April 26,
2018 Form 8-K for additional information regarding our adoption of this standard and the impact to our historical financial results.
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 the following: (i) Adjusted restaurant-level
operating margin, (ii) Adjusted income from operations and the corresponding margin, (iii) Adjusted net income, (iv) Adjusted diluted earnings per share, (v) Adjusted segment restaurant-level operating margin and (vi) Adjusted segment income from
operations and the corresponding
margin.
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.
In this release, we have also included forward-looking non-GAAP information under the caption “Fiscal
2018 Financial Outlook”. This relates to our current expectations for fiscal year 2018 adjusted diluted EPS, combined U.S. comparable restaurant sales and adjusted effective income tax
rate. We have also provided information with respect to our expectations for the corresponding GAAP
measures.
The differences between our disclosed GAAP and non-GAAP expectations are described to the extent practicable under “Fiscal 2018 Financial Outlook”. However, in addition to the general cautionary language regarding all
forward-looking statements included elsewhere in this release, we note that, because the items we adjust for in our non-GAAP measures may vary from period to period without correlation to our core performance, they are by nature more difficult to
predict and estimate, so additional adjustments may occur in the remainder of the fiscal year and they may significantly impact our GAAP
results.

(2) |
The Company has, and in the future may continue to have, negative working capital balances (as is common
for many restaurant companies). The Company operates successfully with negative working capital because cash collected on Restaurant sales is typically received before payment is due on its current liabilities, and its inventory turnover rates
require relatively low investment in inventories. Additionally, ongoing cash flows from restaurant operations and gift card sales are used to service debt obligations and to make capital expenditures. |
(3) |
During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 30,
2018, we repurchased 4.4 million shares of our outstanding common stock and
issued 3.9 million shares of our common stock through the exercise of stock options.

segment.
(2) |
The following categories of our revenue and operating expenses are not included in restaurant-level
operating margin because we do not consider them reflective of operating performance at the restaurant-level within a period: |
(i) |
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. |
(ii) |
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. |
(iii) |
General and administrative expense which includes primarily non-restaurant-level costs associated with
support of the restaurants and other activities at our corporate offices. |
(iv) |
Asset impairment charges and restaurant closing costs which are not reflective of ongoing restaurant
performance in a
period. |
