Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
References to “Brinker,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” in this Form 10-Q refer to Brinker International, Inc. and its subsidiaries and any predecessor companies of Brinker International, Inc. Our Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) as of December 24, 2025 and June 25, 2025, and for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 24, 2025 and December 25, 2024, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
We own, develop, operate and franchise the Chili’s® Grill & Bar (“Chili’s”) and Maggiano’s Little Italy® (“Maggiano’s”) restaurant brands. As of December 24, 2025, we owned, operated or franchised 1,627 restaurants, consisting of 1,160 Company-owned restaurants and 467 franchised restaurants, located in the United States, 27 other countries and two United States territories. Our restaurant brands, Chili’s and Maggiano’s, are both operating segments and reporting units.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) is in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), and the reported amounts of revenues and costs and expenses in the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are, in our opinion, necessary to fairly state the interim operating results, financial position and cash flows for the respective periods. However, these operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our June 25, 2025 Form 10-K. We believe the disclosures are sufficient for interim financial reporting purposes. All amounts in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) are presented in millions unless otherwise specified.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Foreign currency translation adjustment represents the unrealized impact of translating the financial statements of our Canadian restaurants from their respective functional currency (Canadian dollars) to United States dollars and are reported as a component of Comprehensive income and recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss on our Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited).
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disaggregated information about a company’s effective tax rate reconciliation and requires disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, which require us to adopt the provisions in our fiscal 2026 Form 10-K. The amendments should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. Management does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires, for each relevant expense caption on the income statement, detailed disclosure amounts for purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. In addition, this ASU requires companies to include amounts already required by GAAP in the same disclosure, provide a qualitative description of remaining amounts not separately disaggregated, and disclose the amount of total selling expenses along with the companies’ definition of selling expenses. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, which would require us to adopt the provisions in our fiscal 2028 Form 10-K. The amendments should be
applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. Management is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on our disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU modernizes outdated guidance for internal-use software costs to reflect current development practices, including agile and iterative methods, replacing the previous waterfall-based model. The amendments eliminate the requirement to classify costs by development stages (preliminary, application development, and post-implementation) and introduce a principles-based threshold for capitalization. Under the new guidance, capitalization begins when management authorizes and commits funding for the project and it is probable the project will be completed and the software will perform its intended function (probable-to-complete threshold). The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, which would require us to adopt the provisions as of the beginning of our fiscal year 2029. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue Recognition
Deferred Franchise and Development Fees
Our deferred franchise and development fees consist of the unrecognized fees received from franchisees. Recognition of these fees in subsequent periods is based on satisfaction of the contractual performance obligations of the active contracts with franchisees. We also expect to earn subsequent period royalties and advertising fees related to our franchise contracts; however, due to the variability and uncertainty of these future revenues which depend upon a sales-based measure, these future revenues are not yet estimable as the performance obligations remain unsatisfied. Deferred franchise and development fees are classified within Other accrued liabilities for the current portion expected to be recognized within the next 12 months, and Other liabilities for the long-term portion in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited).
The following table reflects the changes in deferred franchise and development fees between June 25, 2025 and December 24, 2025:

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
6 Months Ended
Dec. 24, 2025
Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under market conditions. Fair value measurements are categorized in three levels based on the types of significant inputs used, as follows:
Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 3Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data
Financial Instruments
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts because of the short maturity of these items.
The carrying amount of debt outstanding related to our revolving credit facility approximates fair value as the interest rate on this instrument approximates current market rates (Level 2). The fair values of our note are based on quoted market prices and are considered a Level 2 fair value measurement.
The carrying amounts of the note, which are net of unamortized debt issuance costs, and fair value are as follows:
December 24, 2025June 25, 2025
Carrying AmountFair ValueCarrying AmountFair Value
8.25% notes$346.4 $371.1 $346.0 $372.3 
Non-Financial Assets
We review the carrying amounts of non-financial assets, primarily long-lived property and equipment, finance lease assets, operating lease assets, reacquired franchise rights, goodwill and transferable liquor licenses annually or when events or circumstances indicate that the fair value may not substantially exceed the carrying amount. We determine the fair values of property and equipment, including finance lease assets, operating lease assets and reacquired franchise rights based on Level 3 fair value measurements. The fair values of transferable liquor licenses are based on prices in the open market for licenses in the same or similar jurisdictions and are categorized as Level 2. We record an impairment charge for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value. Any impairment charges are included in Other (gains) and charges in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Unaudited). During the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 24, 2025 and December 25, 2024, no indicators of impairment were identified.
Intangibles, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) includes both indefinite-lived intangible assets such as transferable liquor licenses and definite-lived intangible assets such as reacquired franchise rights. Accumulated
amortization associated with definite-lived intangible assets at December 24, 2025 and June 25, 2025, was $20.1 million and $19.0 million, respectively.

The $1.0 billion revolving credit facility matures on May 1, 2030 and bears interest at a rate of SOFR plus an applicable margin of 1.25% to 2.00% and an undrawn commitment fee of 0.20% to 0.30%, both based on a function of our debt-to-cash-flow ratio. As of December 24, 2025, our interest rate was 4.98% consisting of SOFR of 3.73% plus the applicable margin of 1.25%.
Financial Covenants
The indenture for our 8.25% notes contains certain covenants, including, but not limited to, limitations and restrictions on the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the indentures) to (i) create liens on Principal Property (as defined in the indenture) and (ii) merge, consolidate or amalgamate with or into any other person or sell, transfer, assign, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of their property. These covenants are subject to a number of important conditions, qualifications, exceptions, and limitations.
Our debt agreements contain various financial covenants that, among other things, require the maintenance of certain leverage ratios. As of December 24, 2025, we were in compliance with our covenants pursuant to the $1.0 billion revolving credit facility and under the terms of the indentures governing our 8.25% notes.

Commitments and Contingencies
Lease Commitments and Guarantees
We have, in certain cases, divested brands or sold restaurants to franchisees and have not been released from lease guarantees for the related restaurants. As of December 24, 2025 and June 25, 2025, we have outstanding lease guarantees or are secondarily liable for an estimated $10.1 million and $11.9 million, respectively. These amounts represent the maximum known potential liability of rent payments under the leases, but outstanding rent payments can exist outside of our knowledge as a result of the landlord and tenant relationship being between two third parties. These leases have been assigned to the buyers and expire at the end of the respective lease terms, which range from fiscal 2026 through fiscal 2035. In the event of default under a lease by an owner of a divested brand, the indemnity and default clauses in our agreements with such third parties and applicable laws govern our ability to pursue and recover amounts we may pay on behalf of such parties. We have received notices of default and have
been named a party in lawsuits pertaining to some of these leases in circumstances where the current lessee did not pay its rent obligations and management is closely monitoring any exposure.
Letters of Credit
We provide letters of credit to various insurers to collateralize obligations for outstanding claims. As of December 24, 2025, we had $34.1 million in undrawn standby letters of credit outstanding. All standby letters of credit are renewable within the next 8 months.
Legal Proceedings
Evaluating contingencies related to litigation is a process involving judgment on the potential outcome of future events, and the ultimate resolution of litigated claims may differ from our current analysis. Accordingly, we review the adequacy of accruals and disclosures pertaining to litigated matters each quarter in consultation with legal counsel and we assess the probability and range of possible losses associated with contingencies for potential accrual in the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited).
We are engaged in various legal proceedings and have certain unresolved claims pending. Liabilities have been established based on our best estimates of our potential liability in certain of these matters. Based upon consultation with legal counsel, management is of the opinion that there are no matters pending or threatened which are expected to have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

Effective income tax rate14.2 %14.7 %
The federal statutory tax rate was 21.0% for the twenty-six week periods ended December 24, 2025 and December 25, 2024.
The change in the effective income tax rate in the twenty-six week period ended December 24, 2025 to the twenty-six week period ended December 25, 2024 is primarily due to significantly higher excess tax benefits from stock based compensation of $11.9 million in fiscal 2026, partially offset by higher Income before income taxes and resulting deleverage of the FICA tip tax credit.

Shareholders' Equity
Share Repurchases
Our Board of Directors approved a $400.0 million increase in our share repurchase program in August 2025 allowing for a total available authority of $507.0 million. Our share repurchase program is used to return capital to shareholders and to minimize the dilution to our shares outstanding that results from equity compensation grants. We evaluate potential share repurchases under our plan based on several factors, including our cash position, share price, operational liquidity, proceeds from divestitures, borrowings and planned investment and financing needs. Repurchased shares are reflected as an increase in Treasury stock within Shareholder’s equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited).
In the twenty-six week period ended December 24, 2025, we repurchased 1.8 million shares of our common stock for $235.0 million, including 1.5 million shares purchased for $192.0 million as part of our share repurchase program and 0.3 million shares purchased from team members to satisfy tax withholding obligations on the vesting of restricted shares. These withheld shares of common stock are not considered common stock repurchases under our authorized common stock repurchase plan. As of December 24, 2025, approximately $315.0 million of share repurchase authorization remains under the current share repurchase program.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing Net income by the Basic weighted average shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For the calculation of Diluted net income per share, the Basic weighted average shares outstanding is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted share awards. Stock options and restricted share awards with an anti-dilutive effect are not included in the Diluted net income per share calculation. Basic weighted average shares outstanding are reconciled to Diluted weighted average shares outstanding as follows:

Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Information
Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the President and Chief Executive Officer. Our CODM uses Operating income as the measure for assessing performance and allocating resources of our segments. Our operating segments are Chili’s and Maggiano’s. The Chili’s segment includes the results of our Company-owned Chili’s restaurants, which are principally located in the United States, within the full-service casual dining segment of the industry. The Chili’s segment also includes results of our Canadian Company-owned restaurants and royalties and other fees from our franchised locations in the United States, 27 other countries and two United States territories. The Maggiano’s segment includes the results of our Company-owned Maggiano’s restaurants in the United States as well as royalties and other fees from our domestic franchise business. Costs related to our restaurant support teams for the Chili’s and Maggiano’s brands, including operations, brand recruiting, finance, marketing, culinary innovation and franchise are included in the results of our operating segments. The Corporate segment includes unallocated costs such as information technology, human capital management, accounting, legal, purchasing, and restaurant development.
Company sales for each operating segment include revenues generated by the operation of Company-owned restaurants including food and beverage sales, net of discounts, delivery service fee income, gift card breakage, digital entertainment revenues, merchandise income, Maggiano’s banquet service charge income, and are net of gift card discount costs from third-party gift card sales. Franchise revenues for each operating segment include royalties, franchise advertising fees, franchise and development fees, and other service fees.
Operating income includes revenues and expenses directly attributable to segment-level results of operations. Restaurant expenses primarily includes restaurant rent, repairs and maintenance, advertising, supplies, utilities, delivery fees, payment processing fees, franchise and property taxes, workers’ compensation and general liability insurance, and to-go supplies.
We do not rely on any major customers as a source of sales, and the customers and long-lived assets of our operating segments are predominantly located in the United States. There were no material transactions between our operating segments.
The following tables reconcile our segment results to our consolidated results reported in accordance with GAAP:

Use of Estimates
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) is in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited), and the reported amounts of revenues and costs and expenses in the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are, in our opinion, necessary to fairly state the interim operating results, financial position and cash flows for the respective periods. However, these operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. The Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our June 25, 2025 Form 10-K. We believe the disclosures are sufficient for interim financial reporting purposes. All amounts in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) are presented in millions unless otherwise specified.
Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign Currency Translation
The Foreign currency translation adjustment represents the unrealized impact of translating the financial statements of our Canadian restaurants from their respective functional currency (Canadian dollars) to United States dollars and are reported as a component of Comprehensive income and recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss on our Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited).
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires disaggregated information about a company’s effective tax rate reconciliation and requires disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, which require us to adopt the provisions in our fiscal 2026 Form 10-K. The amendments should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. Management does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on our disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires, for each relevant expense caption on the income statement, detailed disclosure amounts for purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. In addition, this ASU requires companies to include amounts already required by GAAP in the same disclosure, provide a qualitative description of remaining amounts not separately disaggregated, and disclose the amount of total selling expenses along with the companies’ definition of selling expenses. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, which would require us to adopt the provisions in our fiscal 2028 Form 10-K. The amendments should be
applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. Management is currently evaluating this ASU to determine its impact on our disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU modernizes outdated guidance for internal-use software costs to reflect current development practices, including agile and iterative methods, replacing the previous waterfall-based model. The amendments eliminate the requirement to classify costs by development stages (preliminary, application development, and post-implementation) and introduce a principles-based threshold for capitalization. Under the new guidance, capitalization begins when management authorizes and commits funding for the project and it is probable the project will be completed and the software will perform its intended function (probable-to-complete threshold). The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, which would require us to adopt the provisions as of the beginning of our fiscal year 2029. Management is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
