Full Year Fiscal 2022 Guidance
The Company reaffirms the fiscal 2022 guidance released on August 18, 2021 and provides the following additional guidance for full year fiscal 2022 as follows:
- Total revenues are expected to be approximately
$3.75 billion to$3.85 billion . - Net income per diluted share, excluding special items, is expected to be in the range of
$3.50 and$3.80 .
Due to the uncertainties created by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting labor and supply chain disruptions, forecasting business performance is not currently reliable. These uncertainties, as well as other risks and uncertainties, could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.
We are unable to reliably forecast special items such as restaurant impairments, restaurant closures, reorganization charges and legal settlements without unreasonable effort. As such, we do not present a reconciliation of forecasted non-GAAP measures to the corresponding GAAP measures. If special items are reported during fiscal 2022, reconciliations to the appropriate GAAP measures will be provided.

(1) | Company restaurant expenses includes Food and beverage costs, Restaurant labor and Restaurant expenses, |
Chili's
- Chili's Company sales increased primarily due to higher dining room sales, partially offset by a decrease in off-premise sales.
- Chili's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of Company sales, increased primarily due to increased restaurant labor costs including wage rates, training and overtime. Higher repairs and maintenance, commodity price pressure and utilities expenses also contributed to the increase. These increases were partially offset by sales leverage, lower delivery fees and To-Go supplies expenses, and favorable menu pricing.
- Chili's Franchise and other revenues increased primarily due to higher dining room sales and traffic at our franchise restaurants resulting in higher royalty income. Our Chili's franchisees generated sales of approximately
$211.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to$163.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.
Maggiano's
- Maggiano's Company sales increased primarily due to higher dining and banquet room sales, and higher delivery sales, partially offset by a decrease in To-Go sales.
- Maggiano's Company restaurant expenses, as a percentage of Company sales, decreased primarily due to sales leverage and lower delivery fees and To-Go supplies expenses. These decreases were partially offset by increased restaurant labor costs including training, wage rates, overtime and manager bonuses. Higher repairs and maintenance, advertising and commodity pricing also partially offset the decrease.
- Maggiano's Franchise and other revenues increased primarily due to higher banquet room sales and traffic.
Income Taxes
- On a GAAP basis, the effective income tax rate was
1.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 which is lower than the statutory rate of21.0% due to leverage of the FICA tip tax credit. Excluding the impact of special items, the effective income tax rate was14.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2022.

Restaurant operating margin is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of financial performance. Restaurant operating margin is widely regarded in the restaurant industry as a useful metric by which to evaluate restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance of ongoing restaurant-level operations. This non-GAAP measure is not indicative of overall Company performance and profitability because this measure does not directly accrue benefit to the shareholders due to the nature of costs excluded.
We define Restaurant operating margin as Company sales less Food and beverage costs, Restaurant labor and Restaurant expenses. We believe this metric provides a more useful comparison between periods and enables investors to focus on the performance of restaurant-level operations by excluding revenues not related to food and beverage sales at Company-owned restaurants, corporate General and administrative expenses, Depreciation and amortization, and Other (gains) and charges. Restaurant operating margin as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in our industry.
Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA (in millions)
Brinker believes presenting Adjusted EBITDA provides a useful measure of our operating performance, excluding the impacts of financing costs, capital expenditures and special items, but is not a measurement determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation. We define Adjusted EBITDA as Operating income before Depreciation and amortization and Other (gains) and charges.
