Outlook
"Our second quarter performance was stronger than expected, so we are once again raising our full-year earnings guidance," added Brinker.

As a result, we are confirming our second half top-line outlook, and remain confident in our ability to achieve our near-term profitability goals. Looking longer-term, our business transformation remains in its early stages and we are either on track or ahead of schedule as we work toward our financial goals."
