Brinker International, Inc. (EAT) on Decifer

Decifer ranks EAT number 45 of 277 tracked names on durable business quality.

Why it ranks here

• It earns strong returns on the money it puts to work, around 20% and those returns have been improving and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is growing about 22% a year, profits grew 145% over the past year, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
• It keeps a thin share of every sale as profit, and that has stayed steady over the years, a sign of real pricing power, with profitability widening as it grows.
• It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
• It is not watering down its owners with new shares and it returns cash to shareholders.
• Its profit margin and growth are both unusually high right now compared to its own history, the kind of combination that often fades once conditions normalize.
• Revenue up about 22% a year with profits up 145% and returns near 20% describe a strong business, but momentum of 25 out of 35 and no stated reason to grow limit how far it goes.
