Franchise Revenue - Effective December 31, 2023, the Company entered into an Amended & Restated Holistic Resolution Agreement (the “2023 Resolution Agreement”) with Cerca Trova Southwest Restaurant Group, LLC (d/b/a Out West Restaurant Group) and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Out West”), who currently operate 71 franchised Outback Steakhouse restaurants in the western United States. The 2023 Resolution Agreement provided for forbearance regarding prior defaults and established operating covenants to maintain such forbearance. During the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2026, the Company received notice from the agent for Out West’s senior lender that Out West was in default of its separate Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated as of April 25, 2017 (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement”) and Forbearance Agreement and Fourth Amendment to Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with such agent and senior lenders as Out West was no longer in compliance with one or more covenants of such agreements. The agent and senior lenders have not yet elected to take any specific actions with respect to the default notice and have not yet elected to terminate the Forbearance Agreement, Credit Agreement, or other credit documents. Out West continues to operate its restaurants in the ordinary course and was current in its obligations to the Company as of June 28, 2026, including payment of royalties and other fees. If the senior lenders exercise their rights under their Forbearance Agreement with respect to this default, or the Forbearance Agreement expires or is terminated, the lenders have a priority right to payment of amounts due and may exercise creditor remedies against Out West, subject to applicable law and loan documents, including foreclosure on Out West’s assets. At this time, the Company is unable to predict the outcome of this situation or possible actions by Out West or Out West’s lenders or any alternatives that these parties may consider, which could include a court-supervised process. The Company is working with Out West and other parties to mitigate potential disruptions and is actively evaluating the Company’s operational, contractual and strategic alternatives to address Out West’s near-term liquidity constraints and longer-term operations.
