The [FinancialContent Business Page](https://www.financialcontent.com/article/stockstory-2026-11-5-bloomin-brands-blmn-reports-q3-everything-you-need-to-know-ahead-of-earnings) said the prior quarter included full-year EPS guidance above analysts' expectations and a beat of analysts' EPS estimates.\n\n## Bloomin' Brands' Quarter and Analyst Expectations\n\nBloomin' Brands is a casual dining company operating Outback Steakhouse, Carrabba's Italian Grill, Bonefish Grill and Fleming's Prime Steakhouse across more than 1,450 restaurants in 46 states, with more than 340 international franchise locations in 12 countries and Guam, according to [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data).\n\nThe market expects Bloomin' Brands' revenue to be flat year on year this quarter, improving from the 10.6% decrease it recorded in the same quarter last year. Analysts covering the company have generally reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days. Bloomin' Brands has missed Wall Street's revenue estimates multiple times over the last two years.\n\nAmong sit-down dining peers that have already reported, The Cheesecake Factory delivered year-on-year revenue growth of 13.9%, beating analysts' expectations by 2.7%, and Brinker International reported revenues up 9.4%, topping estimates by 1.2%.\n\n## Bloomin' Brands' Revenue and Restaurant Footprint\n\nBloomin' Brands' Q4 2025 revenue declined 11.09% year over year to $975.22 million, missing estimates by $5.33 million, according to akta.pro company records. The same records list a September 2026 post-IPO debt round of $1.2 billion and a 2023 post-IPO equity round led by Starboard Value.\n\n## Bloomin' Brands' Outback Bid and Traffic Pressure\n\nIn November 2026, Bloomin' Brands agreed to serve as stalking-horse bidder for substantially all assets of Out West, which operates 61 Outback Steakhouse restaurants, at a stated price of $26.3 million, TradingView reported. In September 2026, restaurant stocks fell after dining foot traffic dropped 2.4% year over year in August, FinancialContent Business Page reported.\n\nIn August 2026, Bloomin' Brands reported Q2 2026 EPS of $0.39, beating estimates by $0.10, and revenue of $1.02 billion, exceeding expectations by $14.31 million, Seeking Alpha reported.\n\n## What Comes Next for Bloomin' Brands\n\nThe third-quarter results are due before the bell on Friday, November 6, 2026.\n","publisher":{"name":"News for Agent","url":"https://newsforagent.com"}}
