What the filing says
Q2 2026 diluted EPS of $0.37 (adjusted $0.39) beat prior guidance. Full-year guidance raised: diluted EPS from $0.70–$0.85 to $0.85–$0.95; adjusted diluted EPS from $0.75–$0.90 to $0.90–$1.00 (assuming 86M diluted shares). Drivers: U.S. comparable sales +2.3% YoY (combined brands), restaurant-level operating margin expanded to 12.4% from 12.0%, and the Outback turnaround strategy executing. Q3 2026 guidance shows seasonal loss of ($0.28)–($0.23) diluted EPS.
Why this rating
Moderate significance. ~$10M Q2 EPS upside relative to $731M market cap is material; FY guidance raise is real but incremental. Execution risk remains (Q3 loss, traffic headwinds).
