(or texas roadhouse because they sell steak? How do you guys think?)
2.) Using the information in Exhibit 1, value Bloomin Brands using a multiples
approach. Does the company appear to be over- or under-valued?
In general, using just the P/E ratio would make high-growth companies appear
overvalued relative to others. To compare companies with different growth rate, we
should use PEG ratio. A fairly valued company will have its PEG ratio close to 1
(stock is reasonably valued given the expected growth). And for investors, the
lower PEG ratio the better (a lower PEG means that the stock is undervalued more).
Currently, Bloomin Brands has a PEG ratio of 3.3, much higher than 1. Thus,
Bloomin Brands is over-valued.

3.) What additional information or analyses would be useful to further refine your
value estimate from 2.)? Explain your answer.
PEG ratio is sensitive to expected EPS growth rates, which are subject to the
limitations of projecting future events.
