1. 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 28, 2022 and June 29, 2022, and for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 28, 2022 and December 29, 2021, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Effective for the first quarter of fiscal 2023, we are presenting certain revenue streams related to gift cards, digital entertainment, Maggiano’s banquet service charges and delivery fees within Company sales to better align with the presentation used within the casual dining industry. Our presentation of Franchise revenues will now include only revenues related to the ongoing franchise-operated restaurants. Comparative figures in prior years have been adjusted to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on Total revenues or Net income previously reported.

We are principally engaged in the ownership, operation, development and franchising of the Chili’s® Grill & Bar (“Chili’s”) and Maggiano’s Little Italy® (“Maggiano’s”) restaurant brands, as well as virtual brands including It’s Just Wings® and Maggiano’s Italian Classics®. As of December 28, 2022, we owned, operated or franchised 1,648 restaurants, consisting of 1,182 Company-owned restaurants and 466 franchised restaurants, located in the United States, 28 countries and two United States territories.

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 29, 2022 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 included in Comprehensive (loss) income in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income (Unaudited) represents the unrealized impact of translating the financial statements of our Canadian restaurants from Canadian dollars to United States dollars. This amount is not included in Net (loss) income and would only be realized upon disposition of our Canadian restaurants. The related Accumulated other comprehensive loss is presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited).

COVID-19 Pandemic and Other Impacts to Our Operating Environment

Table of Contents

Footnote Index

vaccine mandates, wage inflation, staffing challenges, product cost inflation and disruptions in the supply chain that impact our restaurants’ ability to obtain the products needed to support their operation. Such events could also negatively affect consumer spending potentially reducing guest traffic and/or reducing the average amount guests spend in our restaurants.

New Accounting Standards Implemented in Fiscal 2023

We reviewed accounting pronouncements that became effective for our fiscal 2023 and determined that either they were not applicable or they did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited). We also reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements to be adopted in future periods and determined that they are not expected to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited).

2. 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 our 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 based 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 29, 2022 and December 28, 2022:


	Deferred Franchise and Development Fees

Balance as of June 29, 2022	$	10.1
Additions	1.7

Amount recognized to Franchise revenues	(0.5)

Balance as of December 28, 2022	$	11.3

The following table illustrates franchise and development fees expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that were unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied as of December 28, 2022:


Fiscal Year	Franchise and Development Fees Revenue Recognition
Remainder of 2023	$	0.4
2024	0.9
2025	0.8
2026	0.8
2027	0.7
Thereafter	7.7

Other (gains) and charges in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive (Loss) Income (Unaudited) consist of the following:


	Thirteen Week Periods Ended				Twenty-Six Week Periods Ended
	December 28, 2022		December 29, 2021		December 28, 2022		December 29, 2021
Restaurant closure charges	$	3.3	$	0.3	$	4.8	$	0.5

4. INCOME TAXES


	Thirteen Week Periods Ended				Twenty-Six Week Periods Ended
	December 28, 2022		December 29, 2021		December 28, 2022		December 29, 2021
Effective income tax rate	(3.0)	%	5.2	%	50.0	%	4.0	%

The federal statutory tax rate was 21.0% for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 28, 2022 and December 29, 2021.

The change in the effective income tax rate in the twenty-six week period ended December 28, 2022 to the twenty-six week period ended December 29, 2021, is primarily due to lower Income before income taxes and leverage of the FICA tip credit, partially offset by the excess tax shortfalls associated with stock-based compensation.

5. NET (LOSS) INCOME PER SHARE

Basic net (loss) income per share is computed by dividing Net (loss) income by the Basic weighted average shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted net (loss) 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 (loss) 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 (loss) income per share calculation. Basic weighted average shares outstanding are reconciled to Diluted weighted average shares outstanding as follows:


	Thirteen Week Periods Ended		Twenty-Six Week Periods Ended
	December 28, 2022	December 29, 2021	December 28, 2022	December 29, 2021
Basic weighted average shares outstanding	44.0	45.1	44.0	45.5
Dilutive stock options(1)	0.0	0.2	—	0.3
Dilutive restricted shares(1)	0.8	0.6	—	0.6
Total dilutive impact	0.8	0.8	—	0.9
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding	44.8	45.9	44.0	46.4

Awards excluded due to anti-dilutive effect	1.4	0.9	2.8	0.5

(1)Due to the net loss for the twenty-six week period ended December 28, 2022, zero incremental shares are included because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

6. SEGMENT INFORMATION

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 has Company-owned restaurants in Canada, and franchised locations in the United States, 28 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 the results from our domestic franchise business. The Other segment includes costs related to our restaurant support teams for the Chili’s and Maggiano’s brands, including operations, finance, franchise, marketing, human resources and culinary innovation. The Other segment also includes costs related to the common and shared infrastructure, including accounting, information technology, purchasing, guest relations, legal and restaurant development.

Company sales for each segment include revenues generated by the operation of Company-owned restaurants including food and beverage sales, net of discounts, Maggiano’s banquet service charge income, gift card breakage, delivery income, digital entertainment revenues, merchandise income and 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 gift card equalization.

Footnote Index

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 amongst our operating segments.

Our chief operating decision maker uses Operating income as the measure for assessing performance of our segments. Operating income includes revenues and expenses directly attributable to segment-level results of operations. Restaurant expenses during the periods presented primarily included restaurant rent, supplies, repair and maintenance expenses, delivery fees, utilities, credit card processing fees, property taxes, and workers’ compensation and general liability expenses.

The following tables reconcile our segment results to our consolidated results reported in accordance with GAAP:

7. 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 1			Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2			Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 3			Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data

Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. 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 the 3.875% and 5.000% notes are based on quoted market prices and are considered Level 2 fair value measurements.

The 3.875% notes and 5.000% notes carrying amounts, which are net of unamortized debt issuance costs and discounts, and fair values are as follows:


	December 28, 2022				June 29, 2022
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
3.875% notes	$	299.9	$	296.4	$	299.7	$	295.4
5.000% notes	348.6		338.9		348.2		329.0

Non-Financial Assets

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. The fair values of other non-financial assets are determined based on appraisals, sales prices of comparable assets or estimates of discounted cash flow and are categorized as Level 3.

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 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 (Loss) Income (Unaudited). During the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 28, 2022 and December 29, 2021, 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 28, 2022 and June 29, 2022, was $13.9 million and $12.6 million, respectively.

Chili’s Restaurant Acquisitions

In fiscal 2022, we completed the acquisition of 68 Chili’s restaurants from three former franchisees. The preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed for these restaurants utilized Level 3 inputs. The fair values of intangible assets acquired were primarily based on significant inputs not observable in an active market, including estimates of replacement costs, future cash flows, and discount rates. Refer to Note 14 - Fiscal 2022 Chili’s Restaurant Acquisitions for further details.

Share Repurchases

Our Board of Directors approved a $300.0 million share repurchase program during fiscal 2022. Our share repurchase program is used to return capital to shareholders and to minimize the dilutive impact of stock options and other share-based awards. 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.

In the twenty-six week period ended December 28, 2022, we repurchased 0.1 million shares of our common stock for $2.1 million, all of which were 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 28, 2022, approximately $204.0 million of share repurchase authorization remains under the current share repurchase program.

13. CONTINGENCIES

Lease Commitments

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 28, 2022 and June 29, 2022, we have outstanding lease guarantees or are secondarily liable for an estimated $22.8 million and $26.3 million, respectively. These amounts represent the maximum known potential liability of rent payments under the leases. These leases have been assigned to the buyers and expire at the end of the respective lease terms, which range from fiscal 2023 through fiscal 2028.

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. 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. As of December 28, 2022, we have contingent liabilities of $1.1 million for our estimated exposure of the lease defaults related to these lease guarantees. These contingent liabilities are classified within Other accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited).

Letters of Credit

We provide letters of credit to various insurers to collateralize obligations for outstanding claims. As of December 28, 2022, we had $5.8 million in undrawn standby letters of credit outstanding. All standby letters of credit are renewable within the next 10 months.

Cyber Security Litigation

In fiscal 2018, we discovered malware at certain Chili’s restaurants that may have resulted in unauthorized access or acquisition of customer payment card data. We settled all claims from payment card companies related to this incident and do not expect material claims from payment card companies in the future. In connection with this event, the Company was also named as a defendant in a putative class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida (the “Litigation”) relating to this incident. In the Litigation, plaintiffs assert various claims at the Company’s Chili’s restaurants involving customer payment card information and seek monetary damages in excess of $5.0 million, injunctive and declaratory relief, and attorney’s fees and costs.

Table of Contents

Footnote Index

Oral argument of our appeal of the district court’s class certification order was held before the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals on June 8, 2022 in Jacksonville, Florida. We await the court’s ruling. In the interim, all matters at the district court have been stayed. We believe we have defenses and intend to continue defending the Litigation. As such, as of December 28, 2022, we have concluded that a loss, or range of loss, from this matter is not determinable, therefore, we have not recorded a liability related to the Litigation. We will continue to evaluate this matter based on new information as it becomes available.

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.

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.

14. FISCAL 2022 CHILI’S RESTAURANT ACQUISITIONS

During fiscal 2022, we completed three acquisitions of certain assets and liabilities related to previously franchised Chili’s locations, as follows:

•Mid-Atlantic Region Acquisition - On September 2, 2021, we acquired 23 previously franchised Chili’s restaurants located in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States for a total purchase price of $47.7 million, including post-closing adjustments. The acquisition was funded with borrowings from our existing credit facility and proceeds from a sale leaseback transaction completed simultaneously with the acquisition.

•Great Lakes Region Acquisition - On October 31, 2021, we acquired 37 previously franchised Chili’s restaurants located in the Great Lakes and Northeast region of the United States for a total purchase price of $57.1 million, including post-closing adjustments, funded with borrowings from our existing credit facility.

•Northwest Region Acquisition - On February 1, 2022, we acquired six previously franchised Chili’s restaurants and on May 5, 2022, we acquired two additional previously franchised Chili’s restaurants located in the Northwest region of the United States for a total purchase price of $2.0 million, including post-closing adjustments, funded with borrowings from our existing credit facility.

Pro-forma financial information for these acquisitions are not presented due to the immaterial impact of the financial results of the acquired restaurants in the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited). We accounted for each of these acquisitions as a business combination.

The assets and liabilities of the acquired restaurants were recorded at their fair values. The results of operations, and assets and liabilities, of these restaurants are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) from the acquisition dates.

Table of Contents

Footnote Index

The fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired were primarily based on significant inputs not observable in an active market, including estimates of replacement costs, future cash flows and discount rates. These inputs represent Level 3 fair value measurements as defined under GAAP. The amounts recorded for the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities at the acquisition dates for the material acquisitions are as follows:


	Mid-Atlantic Region		Great Lakes Region
	Fair Value September 2, 2021		Fair Value October 31, 2021
Current assets	$	1.4	$	2.1
Property and equipment	46.2		43.6
Operating lease assets	23.6		47.8
Reacquired franchise rights(1)	4.7		4.6
Goodwill(2)	—		7.2
Current liabilities	(1.4)		(1.4)
Finance lease liabilities, less current portion	(3.7)		—
Operating lease liabilities, less current portion	(23.1)		(46.8)
Net assets acquired(3)	$	47.7	$	57.1

(1)Reacquired franchise rights related to the Mid-Atlantic Region acquisition and Great Lakes Region acquisition both have weighted average amortization periods of approximately 15 years.

(2)Goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The portion of the purchase price attributable to goodwill represents the benefits expected as a result of the acquisition, including sales and unit growth opportunities, and the benefit of the assembled workforce of the acquired restaurants.

(3)Net assets acquired at fair value related to the Mid-Atlantic Region acquisition are equal to the total purchase price of $48.0 million, less $0.3 million of closing adjustments. Net assets acquired at fair value related to the Great Lakes Region acquisition are equal to the total purchase price of $56.0 million, plus $1.1 million of closing adjustments.

Overview

Table of Contents

COVID-19 Pandemic and Other Impacts to Our Operating Environment

During fiscal 2022, increasing COVID-19 cases in the United States, including the Omicron variant, significantly impacted our guest traffic and sales. Many of our restaurants had face mask requirements and some of our restaurants had proof of vaccination requirements, for our customers, team members or both. During fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2023, our operating results were impacted by geopolitical and other macroeconomic events, leading to higher than usual inflation on wages and food and beverage costs. The ongoing effects of COVID-19 and its variants, along with other geopolitical and macroeconomic events could lead to further capacity restrictions, mask and vaccine mandates, wage inflation, staffing challenges, product cost inflation and disruptions in the supply chain that impact our restaurants’ ability to obtain the products needed to support their operation. Such events could also negatively affect consumer spending potentially reducing guest traffic and/or reducing the average amount guests spend in our restaurants.

Operations Strategy

We are committed to strategies and a Company culture that we believe will grow sales, increase profits, bring back guests and engage team members. Our strategies and culture are intended to strengthen our position in casual dining and grow our core business over time. Our primary brand strategy is to make our guests feel special through great food and quality service so that they return to our restaurants.

Guest Engagement Through Technology - We have invested in our technology and off-premise options as more guests are opting for To-Go and delivery. We expanded partnerships with third-party delivery companies, and Chili’s, Maggiano’s, and It’s Just Wings brands are currently available on DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub. Orders to these third-party delivery companies are sent directly into our point of sale system, creating efficiencies and a system that allows us to better serve our guests. We believe that guests will continue to prefer convenience and off-premise options. We plan to continue investments in our technology systems to support our To-Go and delivery capabilities.

In dining rooms, we use tabletop devices to engage our guests at the table. These devices provide functionality for guests to pay at the table, order or re-order, engage in digital entertainment, to provide guest feedback and interact with our My Chili’s Rewards program. Our My Chili’s Rewards loyalty program offers free chips and salsa or a non-alcoholic beverage to members based on their visit frequency. We customize offerings for these guests based on their purchase behavior.

Chili’s - Chili’s strategy is to differentiate from our competitors with a flexible platform of value offerings at both lunch and dinner and we are committed to offering consistent, quality products at a price point that is compelling to our guests. We discontinued the 3 for $10.99 platform during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 and replaced it with 3 for Me, a flexible value bundle providing guests an unbeatable everyday value, while allowing us to be more flexible in terms of pricing, in light of the inflationary challenges. Guests can order customized meals inclusive of a non-alcoholic drink, appetizer and entrée starting at just $10.99. The bundle can be augmented with a premium appetizer, dessert, or alcoholic beverage, each for just $2.49 extra. Additionally, we have continued our Margarita of the Month promotion that features a premium-liquor margarita every month at an every-day value price. Most of our value propositions are available for guests to enjoy in our dining rooms or off-premise.

Maggiano’s - At Maggiano’s, we believe our focus on operating fundamentals and technology provide the foundation for future efficiencies and growth. For example, Maggiano’s partnerships with delivery service providers make third party delivery more sustainable and efficient for the brand to operate. In addition, our guests have the ability to order delivery directly through the Maggiano’s website. Maggiano’s historically hosts a significant portion of its banquets in the holiday season during the second and third quarters of the fiscal year.

Virtual Brands - We have invested in virtual brands, restaurant-like menu offerings that are only available for purchase digitally, to drive restaurant traffic and sales growth at both Chili’s and Maggiano’s. Our virtual brands have enabled us to capitalize on the growth in off-premise dining and to leverage excess kitchen capacity in our existing restaurant infrastructure, while adding minimal complexity in our restaurants’ kitchens.

Table of Contents

It’s Just Wings, is an offering consisting of chicken wings available in a variety of different sauces and rubs, curly fries, ranch dressing and hand pies for a value price. Maggiano’s Italian Classics offers a select group of items inspired by the menu of Maggiano’s Little Italy including several appetizers, salads, pastas, entrées, mac & cheese and hand pies.

These brands are available for purchase through our third party service providers and the brand-specific websites itsjustwings.com and maggianosclassics.com. The operating results for the virtual brands are included in the results of our Chili’s and Maggiano’s brands, based on the restaurants that prepared and processed the food orders.

Franchise Partnerships - Our franchisees continue to grow our brands around the world, opening nine restaurants for the twenty-six week period ended December 28, 2022. We plan to strategically pursue expansion of Chili’s internationally through development agreements with new and existing franchise partners. We are also supporting our franchise partners with opportunities to expand sales through our virtual brand offerings.

sales for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 28, 2022.

(2)Our Chili’s and Maggiano’s franchisees generated sales of approximately $213.4 million and $2.6 million and $419.0 million and $5.0 million respectively for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 28, 2022 compared to $201.8 million and $2.2 million and $415.1 million and $4.2 million respectively in sales for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended December 29, 2021. Franchise revenues decreased primarily because of lower royalties due to variance in royalty rates, and lower franchise advertising fees.

Revolving Credit Facility

Net borrowings of $40.0 million were drawn during the twenty-six week period ended December 28, 2022 on the revolving credit facility. As of December 28, 2022, $488.7 million of credit was available under the revolving credit facility.

As of December 28, 2022, we were in compliance with our covenants pursuant to the $800.0 million revolving credit facility and under the terms of the indentures governing our 3.875% notes and 5.000% notes.

Our $300.0 million 3.875% notes mature in May 2023 and are expected to be paid using availability under the revolving credit facility. As a result of our intent and ability to refinance these notes through our existing revolving credit facility, the notes are classified as long-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited) on December 28, 2022. Refer to Note 9 - Debt for further information about our notes and revolving credit facility.

Share Repurchase Program

Cash Flow Outlook

We believe that our various sources of capital, including future cash flow from operating activities and availability under our existing credit facility are adequate to finance operations as well as the repayment of current debt obligations within the next year. We continue to serve guests at all of our locations through our dining rooms and off-premise offerings, and have resumed normal business operations in accordance with state and local mandates.

We are not aware of any other event or trend that would potentially materially affect our liquidity. In the event such a trend develops, we believe that there are sufficient funds available under our credit facility and from our internal cash generating capabilities to adequately manage our ongoing business.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, sales, costs or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions for the reporting periods covered by the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our critical accounting estimates have not changed materially from those previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The impact of recent accounting pronouncements can be found at Note 1 - Basis of Presentation in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) set forth in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q report.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

The terms of our revolving credit facility require us to pay interest on outstanding borrowings at LIBOR plus a margin of 1.500% to 2.250% and pay a commitment fee of 0.250% to 0.350% per year on any unused portion of the revolving credit facility, in each case depending on our debt-to-cash flow ratio. Our revolving credit facility agreement includes transition language to an alternate base rate, SOFR, when LIBOR rates are discontinued at the end of fiscal 2023. As of December 28, 2022, we had $311.3 million outstanding on our revolving credit facility, and our interest rate was 6.438% consisting of LIBOR of 4.438% plus the applicable margin of 2.000%. A hypothetical increase in our variable interest rate of one percentage point would increase our estimated annual interest expense by $3.1 million.

Commodity Price Risk

We purchase food and other commodities for use in our operations based on market prices established with our suppliers. While our purchasing commitments partially mitigate the risk of such fluctuations, there is no assurance that supply and demand factors such as disease, inclement weather, ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, or recent geopolitical unrest, will not cause the prices of the commodities used in our restaurant operations to fluctuate. The aggregate impact of these and other factors have contributed to significant cost inflation. Additionally, if there is a time lag between the increasing commodity prices and our ability to increase menu prices or if we believe the commodity price increase to be short in duration and we choose not to pass on the cost increases, our short-term financial results could be negatively affected.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Information and statements contained in this Form 10-Q, in our other filings with the SEC or in our written and verbal communications that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by words like “believes,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends,” “projects,” “continues” and other similar expressions that convey uncertainty about future events or outcomes. Forward-looking statements are based on our current plans and expectations and involve risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical results or from those projected in forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties are, in many instances, beyond our control. We wish to caution you against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements because of these risks and uncertainties. Except as required by law, we expressly disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q report are subject to the risks and uncertainties described in Part I, Item IA “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2022, and below in Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in this report on Form 10-Q, as well as the risks and uncertainties that generally apply to all businesses. We further caution that it is not possible to identify all risks and uncertainties, and you should not consider the identified factors as a complete list of all risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are: the impact of general economic conditions, including inflation, on economic activity and on our operations; the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; the crisis in Ukraine and related disruptions on our business including consumer demand, costs, product mix, our strategic initiatives, our partners’ supply chains, operations, technology and assets, and our financial performance; the impact of competition; changes in consumer preferences; consumer perception of food safety; reduced consumer discretionary spending; unfavorable publicity; governmental regulations; the Company's ability to meet its business strategy plan; loss of key management personnel; failure to hire and retain high-quality restaurant management and team members; the impact of social media or other unfavorable publicity; reliance on technology and third party delivery providers; failure to protect the security of data of our guests and team members; product availability and supply chain disruptions; regional business and economic conditions; volatility in consumer, commodity, transportation, labor, currency and capital markets; litigation; franchisee success; technology failures; failure to protect our intellectual property; outsourcing; impairment of goodwill or assets; failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; downgrades in credit ratings; changes in estimates regarding our assets; actions of activist shareholders; failure to comply with new environmental, social and governance (ESG) requirements; failure to achieve any goals, targets or objectives with respect to ESG matters; adverse weather conditions; terrorist acts; health epidemics or pandemics (such as COVID-19); tax reform; inadequate insurance coverage and limitations imposed by our credit agreements

It is not possible to predict or identify all risk factors.

Therefore, the risks identified are not intended to be a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties.
