Presentation

Operator

Good day, and welcome to the Brinker International's Q3 FY'24 Earnings Call. [Operator Instructions]. It is now my pleasure to turn the floor over to your host, Mika Ware, Vice President of Finance and Investor Relations. Ma'am, the floor is yours.

Mika Ware

Thank you, Holly, and good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us. Here with me today are Kevin Hochman, our Chief Executive Officer and President; and Joe Taylor, our Chief Financial Officer.

Results for our third quarter were released earlier this morning and are available on our website at brinker.com. As usual, Kevin and Joe will first make prepared comments related to our strategic initiatives and operating performance. Then we will open the call for your questions.

Before beginning our comments, I would like to remind everyone of our safe harbor regarding forward-looking statements. During our call, management may discuss certain items which are not based entirely on historical facts. Any such items should be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

All such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ from those anticipated. Such risks and uncertainties include factors more completely described in this morning's press release and the company's filings with the SEC. And of course, on the call, we may refer to certain non-GAAP financial measures that management uses in its review of the business and believes will provide insight into the company's ongoing operations.

And with that said, I will turn the call over to Kevin.

Kevin Hochman

Thanks, Mika, and good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us as we share results from another quarter of strong progress.
