We believe management is signaling that a full turnaround in terms of both sales and profits at the core Outback brand will take time and will perhaps be a 2007 event.
We expect continued benefit from extended hours as more restaurants shift to 24-hour service.
We view Brewster as a strong hire.
While a new CEO is a positive for the stock, much uncertainty still remains with regards to the fundamentals of the business and the timing of a turnaround.
