Goodwill and Intangible Assets - The Company performs its annual assessment for impairment of goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets during its second fiscal quarter. During the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 2025, the Company performed a quantitative impairment analysis due to the recent decline in the Company’s market capitalization, while its 2024 assessment was qualitative. In connection with these assessments, the Company did not record any impairment charges.

The goodwill analysis indicated that all reporting units had fair values that exceeded their carrying values. However, the Outback Steakhouse and Bonefish Grill reporting units had fair values that decreased to approximately 10% above their respective carrying values. The fair values for the Outback Steakhouse and Bonefish Grill reporting units decreased primarily due to lower cash flow estimates, increased discount rates, lower market multiples, and additionally for Bonefish Grill, a lower long-term growth rate, compared to the last quantitative impairment analysis performed during the quarter ended June 25, 2023.

The quantitative impairment analysis for indefinite-lived intangible assets indicated that all trade names had fair values exceeding their carrying values; however, the Outback Steakhouse trade name’s fair value decreased to approximately 15% above its carrying value. Similar to the goodwill analysis, the fair value of the Outback Steakhouse trade name decreased primarily due to lower projected system-wide sales and an increased discount rate.

Fair value determinations require considerable judgment and are sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions, estimates and market factors. Key assumptions include cash flow estimates (including sales and operating profit), long-term growth rates, discount rates, royalty rates, market multiples and other market factors. Sales declines, unplanned increases in commodity or labor costs, decreases to the market multiples, increases in discount rates, deterioration in overall economic conditions and challenges in the restaurant industry or any such event may impact the Company’s fair value determinations and may result in future impairment charges. It is possible that changes in circumstances or changes in assumptions and estimates could result in impairment of the Company’s goodwill or other intangible assets. Further, as a result of the decreased fair values, the Outback Steakhouse and Bonefish Grill reporting units and the Outback Steakhouse trade name are at a higher risk of future impairment.
