(Nasdaq: BLMN) today reported results for the second quarter 2024 (“Q2 2024”) compared to the second quarter 2023 (“Q2 2023”).\n\n\nCEO Comments\n“In the second quarter, the casual dining industry was softer than anticipated,” said David Deno, CEO. “While our comparable sales growth outpaced the industry in Q2, we did not meet our expectations. We are very focused on developing a path to sustainable growth at Outback and are making progress in improving the guest experience, providing meaningful value, and enhancing customer and digital capabilities.
