Bloomin' Brands reported a challenging second quarter due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with a significant drop in revenue and operating income. However, the company highlighted strengthening sales trends and positive cash flow in June, driven by off-premises sales and disciplined cost management.
Total revenues decreased by 43.4% compared to Q2 2019, primarily due to lower comparable restaurant sales.
GAAP operating loss margin was (19.3)%, a decrease of 23.6% from 4.3% in Q2 2019.
Adjusted diluted loss per share was $(0.74) compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.36 in Q2 2019.
As of July 19, 2020, 928 company-operated restaurants (approximately 92% of U.S. restaurants) have reopened with limited in-restaurant dining capacity.
Due to the current global market and economic conditions as a result of COVID-19, the Company will not provide guidance for the remainder of the year.
