NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation Description of the Business - Bloomin’ Brands (“Bloomin’ Brands” or the “Company”) owns and operates casual, upscale casual and fine dining restaurants. The Company’s restaurant portfolio has four concepts: Outback Steakhouse, Carrabba’s Italian Grill, Bonefish Grill and Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar. Additional Outback Steakhouse, Carrabba’s Italian Grill and Bonefish Grill restaurants in which the Company has no direct investment are operated under franchise agreements. Basis of Presentation - The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments necessary for fair financial statement presentation for the periods presented have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2019. Risks and Uncertainties - In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. In response to COVID-19, the Company temporarily closed all restaurant dining rooms in the U.S. as of March 20, 2020 and shifted operations to provide only take-out and delivery service, resulting in significantly reduced traffic in its restaurants. In early May 2020, the Company began to reopen its restaurant dining rooms with limited seating capacity in compliance with state and local regulations and as of June 28, 2020 had reopened substantially all of its restaurant dining rooms with limited seating capacity. The temporary closure of the Company’s dining rooms and the limitations on seating capacity in its reopened dining rooms have resulted in significantly reduced traffic in the Company’s restaurants. The negative effect of COVID-19 on the Company’s business was significant during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2020. See Note 2 - COVID-19 Charges for details regarding the financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s financial results. The duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its long-term impact on the Company’s business are uncertain at this time. Given the daily evolution of the pandemic and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company may be unable to accurately estimate the effects of the pandemic on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for the foreseeable future. Recently Adopted Financial Accounting Standards - On December 30, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” (“ASU No. 2016-13”), which requires measurement and recognition of losses for financial instruments under the current expected credit loss model versus incurred losses under previous guidance. The Company’s adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 and its related amendments (“the new credit loss standard”) resulted in a cumulative-effect debit adjustment to the beginning balance of Accumulated deficit of $ 4.3 million, including $ 4.8 million of contingent lease liabilities related to lease guarantees and $ 1.0 million of incremental reserve for credit losses, net of the $ 1.5 million net increase in related deferred tax assets. Measurement processes and related controls have been implemented by the Company to ensure compliance with the new credit loss standard. See Note 18 - Allowance for Expected Credit Losses for additional details regarding the Company’s allowance for expected credit losses. On December 30, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing 9 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued Arrangement That Is a Service Contract,” (“ASU No. 2018-15”), which clarifies the accounting for implementation costs in cloud computing arrangements. Under ASU No. 2018-15, implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements are deferred and recognized over the term of the arrangement similar to internal-use software guidance. The Company contracts with 3 rd party information technology providers for various service arrangements including software, platform and information technology infrastructure. The capitalized implementation costs are recorded within Other assets, net on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the hosting arrangements, including reasonably certain renewal periods, within the same financial statement line as the related hosting fees. The amortization of the Company’s current arrangements is recorded in General and administrative expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income. The Company’s prospective adoption of ASU No. 2018-15 did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting,” (“ASU No. 2020-04”). The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU No. 2020-04 was effective beginning March 12, 2020 and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. The Company has elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to hedge effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows, which enables the Company to continue to apply hedge accounting to hedging relationships impacted by reference rate reform. Application of these expedients allows for presentation of derivatives consistent with the Company’s historical presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections, as applicable. Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted - Recent accounting guidance not discussed herein is not applicable, did not have, or is not expected to have a material impact to the Company. Reclassifications - The Company reclassified certain items in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for prior periods to be comparable with the classification for the current period. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income. 10 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued 2.

The conversion spread on the Company’s convertible senior notes will have a dilutive impact on diluted earnings per share when the average market price of the Company’s common stock for a given period exceeds the conversion price of $ 11.89 per share of common stock. The Company expects to settle the principal amount of its outstanding convertible senior notes in cash and any excess in shares. As a result, upon conversion of the convertible senior notes, only the amounts in excess of the principal amount are considered in diluted earnings per share under the treasury stock method, if applicable. For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2020, the convertible senior notes have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the effect would be antidilutive given the Company’s net loss, and also since the conversion price of the convertible senior notes exceeded the average market price of the Company’s common stock. Warrants to purchase approximately 19.348 million shares of the Company’s common shares at $ 16.64 per share were outstanding as of June 28, 2020 but were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share since the warrants’ strike price was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during the period.

Without such amendment, violation of financial covenants under the original credit agreement could have resulted in default. TNLR is the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt (Current portion of long-term debt and Long-term debt, net of cash, excluding the convertible senior notes) to Consolidated EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other adjustments as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). 19 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC.

(3) Seasonally annualized Consolidated EBITDA calculated as Consolidated EBITDA for the three consecutive quarters ending September 26, 2021 divided by 77.0 %. The Company is also required to meet a minimum monthly liquidity threshold of $ 125.0 million through March 28, 2021, calculated as the sum of available capacity under the Company’s revolving credit facility, unrestricted domestic cash on hand and up to $ 25.0 million of unrestricted cash held by foreign subsidiaries. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company is limited to $ 100.0 million of aggregate capital expenditures for the four fiscal quarters through March 28, 2021. The Company is also prohibited from making certain restricted payments, investments or acquisitions until after September 26, 2021, with an exception for investments in the Company’s foreign subsidiaries which are capped at $ 27.5 million. Repurchasing shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock and paying dividends are also restricted until after September 26, 2021 and the Company is compliant with its financial covenants under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement. Interest rates under the Amended Credit Agreement are 275 and 175 basis points above the Eurocurrency Rate and Base Rate, respectively, and letter of credit fees and fees for the daily unused availability under the revolving credit facility are 2.75 % and 0.40 %, respectively, subject to reversion to rates under the original credit agreement when the Company is in compliance with the TNLR covenant for the test period ending September 26, 2021.

The 2025 Notes are governed by the terms of an indenture between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the Trustee. The 2025 Notes will mature on May 1, 2025 , unless earlier converted, redeemed or purchased by the Company. The 2025 Notes bear cash interest at an annual rate of 5.00 %, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on November 1, 2020. 20 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued The 2025 Notes are unsecured obligations and do not contain any financial covenants or restrictions on incurring additional indebtedness, paying dividends or issuing or repurchasing any securities. Events of default under the indenture for the 2025 Notes include, among other things, a default in the payment when due of the principal of, or the redemption price for, any note and a default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on any note. If an event of default, the principal amount of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all of the notes then outstanding will immediately become due and payable. The initial conversion rate applicable to the 2025 Notes is 84.122 shares of common stock per $ 1,000 principal amount of 2025 Notes, or a total of approximately 19.348 million shares for the total $ 230.0 million principal amount. This initial conversion rate is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $ 11.89 per share. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events. Noteholders may convert their notes at their option only in the circumstances described in the indenture. The Company will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at the Company’s election, based on the applicable conversion rate. Net proceeds from the 2025 Notes offering were approximately $ 221.6 million, after deducting the initial purchaser’s discounts and commissions and the Company’s offering expenses. Upon issuance, the principal amount was separated into a liability and an equity component, such that interest expense reflects the Company’s nonconvertible debt interest rate. The initial carrying value of the 2025 Notes, excluding the discounts upon original issuance and third party offering costs allocated to the liability, and recorded during the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2020, is as follows (in thousands): Liability component Principal $ 230,000 Less: Debt discount (1) ( 66,137 ) Less: Debt issuance costs (1) ( 5,996 ) Net carrying amount $ 157,867 Equity component (2) $ 64,367 ________________ (1) Debt discount and issuance costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected life of the 2025 Notes.

Convertible Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions - In connection with the offering of the 2025 Notes , the Company entered into convertible note hedge transactions (the “Convertible Note Hedge Transactions”) with certain of the initial purchasers of the 2025 Notes and/or their respective affiliates and other financial institutions (in this capacity, the “Hedge Counterparties”). Concurrently with the Company’s entry into the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions, the Company also entered into separate, warrant transactions with the Hedge Counterparties collectively relating to the same number of shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, and for which the Company received proceeds that partially offset the cost of entering into the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions (the “Warrant Transactions”). The Convertible Note Hedge Transactions cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that initially underlie the 2025 Notes , and are expected generally to reduce the potential equity dilution, and/or offset any cash payments in excess of the principal amount due, as the case may be, upon conversion of the 2025 Notes . The Warrant Transactions could have a dilutive effect on the Company’s 21 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued common stock to the extent that the price of its common stock exceeds the strike price of the Warrant Transactions. The strike price will initially be $ 16.64 per share and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Warrant Transactions. The portion of the net proceeds to the Company from the offering of the 2025 Notes that was used to pay the premium on the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions, net of the proceeds to the Company from the Warrant Transactions, was approximately $ 19.6 million. The net costs incurred in connection with the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and Warrant Transactions were recorded as a reduction to Additional paid-in capital on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet during the thirteen weeks ended June 28, 2020. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the Convertible Note Hedge Transactions and Warrant Transactions were recorded in stockholders’ equity, not accounted for as derivatives and are not remeasured each reporting period. 13. Other Long-term Liabilities, Net Other long-term liabilities, net, consisted of the following, as of the periods indicated: (dollars in thousands) JUNE 28, 2020 DECEMBER 29, 2019 Accrued insurance liability $ 32,740 $ 33,818 Chef and Restaurant Managing Partner deferred compensation obligations 38,187 47,831 Other long-term liabilities (1) 91,971 56,411 $ 162,898 $ 138,060 ________________ (1) The increase in Other long-term liabilities during the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2020, primarily relates to $ 16.9 million related to deferred payroll tax liabilities (as allowed for in the Coronavirus, Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act), $ 8.6 million of additional contingent lease liabilities subsequent to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 and $ 7.3 million of additional interest rate swap liabilities. See Note 19 - Income Taxes , Note 20 - Commitments and Contingencies and Note 15 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities , respectively, for details regarding these increases. 14. Stockholders’ Equity Dividends - The Company declared and paid dividends per share during fiscal year 2020 as follows: (in thousands, except per share data) DIVIDENDS PER SHARE AMOUNT First fiscal quarter $ 0.20 $ 17,480 Redeemable Preferred Stock - In connection with the development of its Abbraccio Cucina Italiana (“Abbraccio”) concept in 2015, the Company entered into an investment agreement (the “Abbraccio Investment Agreement”) to sell preferred shares of its Abbraccio subsidiary (“Abbraccio Shares”) to certain investors. The Abbraccio Investment Agreement included a call option for the purchase of the Abbraccio Shares (the “Abbraccio Call Option”). During the thirteen weeks ended March 29, 2020, the Company exercised the Abbraccio Call Option to purchase all outstanding Abbraccio Shares for $ 1.0 million and recorded a reduction to Accumulated deficit and an increase in Net loss applicable to common stockholders of $ 3.5 million for the consideration paid in excess of the Abbraccio Shares’ carrying value. 22 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk - On October 24, 2018 and October 25, 2018 , the Company entered into variable-to-fixed interest rate swap agreements with 12 counterparties to hedge a portion of the cash flows of the Company’s variable rate debt. The swap agreements have an aggregate notional amount of $ 550.0 million and mature on November 30, 2022 . Under the terms of the swap agreements, the Company pays a weighted-average fixed rate of 3.04 % on the notional amount and receives payments from the counterparty based on the one-month LIBOR rate. The Company’s swap agreements have been designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, are recognized on its Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and are classified based on the instruments’ maturity dates. The Company estimates $ 16.0 million will be reclassified to interest expense over the next 12 fiscal months. The following table presents the fair value and classification of the Company’s swap agreements, as of the periods indicated : (dollars in thousands) JUNE 28, 2020 DECEMBER 29, 2019 CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET CLASSIFICATION Interest rate swaps - liability $ 14,555 $ 7,174 Accrued and other current liabilities Interest rate swaps - liability 24,152 16,835 Other long-term liabilities, net Total fair value of derivative instruments - liabilities (1) $ 38,707 $ 24,009 Accrued interest $ 1,356 $ 632 Accrued and other current liabilities ____________________ (1) See Note 17 - Fair Value Measurements for fair value discussion of the interest rate swaps. On May 4, 2020 , concurrent with entering into the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company de-designated its interest rate swap hedge relationship and modified its hedge documentation to more closely align with certain terms 23 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued of the Amended Credit Agreement. On May 6, 2020, the Company re-designated the cash flow hedge relationship for the original $ 550.0 million notional amount, resulting in no impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a result of the hedge activity. The following table summarizes the effects of the swap agreements on Net (loss) income for the periods indicated: THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED (dollars in thousands) JUNE 28, 2020 JUNE 30, 2019 JUNE 28, 2020 JUNE 30, 2019 Interest rate swap (expense) income recognized in Interest expense, net $ ( 3,482 ) $ ( 175 ) $ ( 5,362 ) $ 316 Income tax benefit (expense) recognized in (Benefit) provision for income taxes 897 45 1,381 ( 82 ) Total effects of the interest rate swaps on Net (loss) income $ ( 2,585 ) $ ( 130 ) $ ( 3,981 ) $ 234 By utilizing the interest rate swaps, the Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event that the counterparty fails to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. To mitigate this risk, the Company enters into derivative contracts with major financial institutions based upon credit ratings and other factors. The Company continually assesses the creditworthiness of its counterparties. As of June 28, 2020 , all counterparties to the interest rate swaps had performed in accordance with their contractual obligations. The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if the repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on indebtedness. As of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019 , the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was in a net liability position, including accrued interest but excluding any adjustment for nonperformance risk, of $ 40.5 million and $ 24.8 million, respectively. As of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019 , the Company has not posted any collateral related to these agreements. If the Company had breached any of these provisions as of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019 , it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $ 40.5 million and $ 24.8 million, respectively. 16. Leases In April 2020, the FASB issued a question and answer document focused on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of COVID-19 (the “Lease Modification Q&A”). The Lease Modification Q&A provides entities with the option to elect to account for lease concessions as though the enforceable rights and obligations existed in the original lease when the total cash flows resulting from the modified lease are substantially similar to the cash flows in the original lease. The Company elected this practical expedient for COVID-19-related rent concessions, primarily rent deferrals or rent abatements, and has elected not to remeasure the related lease liability and right-of-use asset for those leases. Rent deferrals are accrued with no impact to straight-line rent expense. Rent abatements are recognized as a reduction of variable rent expense in the month they occur. This election will continue while these concessions are in effect. 24 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued 17. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability, or the exit price, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value is categorized into one of the following three levels based on the lowest level of significant input: Level 1 Unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities Level 2 Observable inputs available at measurement date other than quoted prices included in Level 1 Level 3 Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis - The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by hierarchy level on a recurring basis as of the periods indicated: JUNE 28, 2020 DECEMBER 29, 2019 (dollars in thousands) TOTAL LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 TOTAL LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 Assets: Cash equivalents: Fixed income funds $ 6,567 $ 6,567 $ — $ 1,037 $ 1,037 $ — Money market funds 9,595 9,595 — 12,752 12,752 — Restricted cash equivalents: Money market funds 1,099 1,099 — — — — Total asset recurring fair value measurements $ 17,261 $ 17,261 $ — $ 13,789 $ 13,789 $ — Liabilities: Accrued and other current liabilities: Derivative instruments - interest rate swaps $ 14,555 $ — $ 14,555 $ 7,174 $ — $ 7,174 Other long-term liabilities: Derivative instruments - interest rate swaps 24,152 — 24,152 16,835 — 16,835 Total liability recurring fair value measurements $ 38,707 $ — $ 38,707 $ 24,009 $ — $ 24,009 Fair value of each class of financial instrument is determined based on the following: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT METHODS AND ASSUMPTIONS Fixed income funds and Money market funds Carrying value approximates fair value because maturities are less than three months. Derivative instruments The Company’s derivative instruments include interest rate swaps. Fair value measurements are based on the contractual terms of the derivatives and use observable market-based inputs. The interest rate swaps are valued using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative using observable inputs including interest rate curves and credit spreads. The Company also considers its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. As of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019, the Company has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. 26 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis - Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis relate primarily to property, fixtures and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, which are remeasured when carrying value exceeds fair value. Carrying value after impairment approximates fair value. The following table summarizes the Company’s assets measured at fair value by hierarchy level on a nonrecurring basis, for the periods indicated: THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED JUNE 28, 2020 JUNE 30, 2019 (dollars in thousands) CARRYING VALUE TOTAL IMPAIRMENT CARRYING VALUE TOTAL IMPAIRMENT Operating lease right-of-use assets (1) $ 32,404 $ 4,028 $ 114 $ 1,770 Property, fixtures and equipment (2) 9,992 19,595 466 162 Goodwill and other assets (3) 748 295 — — $ 43,144 $ 23,918 $ 580 $ 1,932 TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED JUNE 28, 2020 JUNE 30, 2019 (dollars in thousands) CARRYING VALUE TOTAL IMPAIRMENT CARRYING VALUE TOTAL IMPAIRMENT Assets held for sale (4) $ 1,182 $ 75 $ 2,149 $ 215 Operating lease right-of-use assets (1) 85,537 23,591 2,356 2,366 Property, fixtures and equipment (2) 28,390 37,993 956 2,833 Goodwill and other assets (3) 748 2,683 — — $ 115,857 $ 64,342 $ 5,461 $ 5,414 ____________________ (1) Carrying values measured using Level 2 inputs to estimate fair value totaled $ 0.2 million during the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2019. All other assets were valued using Level 3 inputs. Third-party market appraisals (Level 2) and discounted cash flow models (Level 3) were used to estimate fair value. (2) Carrying values measured using Level 2 inputs to estimate fair value totaled $ 0.5 million and $ 2.2 million during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2020, respectively. All other assets were valued using Level 3 inputs. Third-party market appraisals (Level 2) and discounted cash flow models (Level 3) were used to estimate fair value. (3) All assets measured using the quoted market value of comparable assets (Level 2). (4) Assets generally measured using third-party market appraisals or executed sales contracts (Level 2). See Note 4 - Impairments, Exit Costs and Disposals for information regarding impairment charges resulting from the fair value measurement performed on a nonrecurring basis during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2020. Projected future cash flows, including discount rate and growth rate assumptions, are derived from current economic conditions, expectations of management and projected trends of current operating results. As a result, the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its long-lived assets held and used are unobservable inputs that fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. In assessment of impairment for operating locations, the Company determined the fair values of individual operating locations using an income approach, which required discounting projected future cash flows. When determining the stream of projected future cash flows associated with an individual operating location, management made assumptions, including highest and best use and inputs from restaurant operations, where necessary, and about key variables including the following unobservable inputs: revenue growth rates, controllable and uncontrollable expenses, and asset residual values. In order to calculate the present value of those future cash flows, the Company discounted cash flow estimates at its weighted-average cost of capital applicable to the country in which the measured assets reside. 27 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC.

Gift card, vendor and other receivables consist primarily of amounts due from gift card resellers and vendor rebates. Amounts due from franchisees consist of initial franchise fees, royalty income, and advertising fees. See Note 7 - Other Current Assets, Net for disclosure of trades receivables by category as of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019. Domestic credit card receivables are recorded within Cash and cash equivalents based on their short duration and reasonably assured settlement. The Company evaluates the collectability of trade receivables based on historical loss experience and risk pool and records periodic adjustments for factors such as deterioration of economic conditions, specific customer circumstances and changes in the aging of accounts receivable balances. For risk pools where there was no established loss history, S&P speculative-grade default rates are utilized to calculate an estimated loss rate. Losses are charged off in the period in which they are determined to be uncollectable. 28 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued The financial condition of the Company’s franchisees is largely dependent on the underlying business trends of its brands and market conditions within the casual dining restaurant industry. In March 2020, the Company fully reserved substantially all of its outstanding franchise receivables in response to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. See Note 2 - COVID-19 Charges for details regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s financial results. The Company is also exposed to credit losses from off-balance sheet lease guarantees primarily related to the divestiture of certain formerly Company-owned restaurant sites. See Note 20 - Commitments and Contingencies for details regarding these lease guarantees. 19. Income Taxes THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED (dollars in thousands) JUNE 28, 2020 JUNE 30, 2019 JUNE 28, 2020 JUNE 30, 2019 (Loss) income before (benefit) provision for income taxes $ ( 128,207 ) $ 31,024 $ ( 182,276 ) $ 102,169 (Benefit) provision for income taxes $ ( 35,779 ) $ 1,215 $ ( 55,434 ) $ 6,711 Effective income tax rate 27.9 % 3.9 % 30.4 % 6.6 % On March 27, 2020, the President of the United States signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). Accordingly, the applicable provisions of the CARES Act have been reflected in the Company’s tax provision for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2020. The CARES Act, among other items, includes U.S. corporate tax provisions related to the deferment of employer social security payments, employee retention credits, net operating loss (“NOL”) carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credits, modifications to interest deduction limitations and technical corrections on tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property (“QIP”). The effective income tax rate for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2020 increased by 24.0 and 23.8 percentage points as compared to the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2019. These increases were primarily due to the benefit of the tax credits for FICA taxes on certain employees’ tips and the forecasted 2020 pre-tax book loss. As of December 29, 2019, the Company had $ 128.6 million in general business tax credits carryforwards, which have a 20-year carryforward period and are utilized on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company expects to increase its general business credit carryforwards in 2020 by approximately $ 30 million to $ 40 million as a result of additional credits generated in 2020 and the application of the QIP technical correction enacted as part of the CARES Act. The Company currently expects to utilize these tax credit carryforwards within a 10 year period. However, the Company’s ability to utilize these tax credits could be adversely impacted by, among other items, a future “ownership change” as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company has a blended federal and state statutory rate of approximately 26 %. The effective income tax rate for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2020 was higher than the statutory rate primarily due to the benefit of tax credits for FICA taxes on certain employees’ tips. Deferred Taxes - During the twenty-six weeks ended June 28, 2020, Deferred income tax assets, net increased by $ 56.1 million primarily as a result of losses incurred during the period and tax credits for FICA taxes on certain employees’ tips. 29 Table of Contents BLOOMIN’ BRANDS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) - Continued 20. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation and Other Matters - The Company had $ 4.2 million and $ 3.0 million of liabilities recorded for various legal matters as of June 28, 2020 and December 29, 2019, respectively. The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and liabilities, such as liquor liability, slip and fall cases, wage-and-hour and other employment-related litigation, which arise in the ordinary course of business and are generally covered by insurance if they exceed specified retention or deductible amounts. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to those actions will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations and cash flows. Lease Guarantees - The Company assigned its interest, and is contingently liable, under certain real estate leases. These leases have varying terms, the latest of which expires in 2032 . As of June 28, 2020, the undiscounted payments that the Company could be required to make in the event of non-payment by the primary lessees was approximately $ 32.6 million . The present value of these potential payments discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate as of June 28, 2020 was approximately $ 20.5 million . In the event of default, the indemnity clauses in the Company’s purchase and sale agreements govern its ability to pursue and recover damages incurred. In March 2020, the Company recorded $ 4.2 million of additional contingent lease liability in response to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. As of June 28, 2020, the Company’s recorded contingent lease liability was $ 9.6 million. See Note 2 - COVID-19 Charges for details regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s financial results. 21. Segment Reporting The Company considers its restaurant concepts and international markets as operating segments, which reflects how the Company manages its business, reviews operating performance and allocates resources. Resources are allocated and performance is assessed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), whom the Company has determined to be its Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The Company aggregates its operating segments into two reportable segments, U.S. and international. The U.S. segment includes all restaurants operating in the U.S. while restaurants operating outside the U.S. are included in the international segment. The following is a summary of reporting segments: REPORTABLE SEGMENT (1) CONCEPT GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION U.S. Outback Steakhouse United States of America Carrabba’s Italian Grill Bonefish Grill Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar International Outback Steakhouse Brazil, Hong Kong/China Carrabba’s Italian Grill (Abbraccio) Brazil _________________ (1) Includes franchise locations.
