BUY

Up 240% over 9 years since Starboard took over, 354% is you reinvested the hefty dividend, nearly double the S&P's performance.

BUY

It has turned around since Starboard bought it in February 2019: revamped their menu, improved their technology, embraced 3rd-party delivery. Shares roughly soared 400% at the pandemic high, though has pulled back a lot to levels double since Feb 2019.

RISKY

Given the impressive track record of new investor, Starboard (Papa John's and Dardens), BLMN looks promising. Trades at 9.4x PE this year, lower than Darden, Cracker Barrel and other peers. Their last quarter delivered in-line sales and decent earnings, but the bar was low. Domestic sales grew only 0.8%. Stocks tumbled after that report. Something's wrong here. So, Starboard could turn this chain around like they've done with other chains.

DON'T BUY

A loser, not executing well. There are many other companies that can do better.

BUY

They've been slumping, but they will do well with good contracts, and do well with federal money.

BUY

They delivered a monster good quarter, but the stock didn't run. He blesses this stock.

DON'T BUY

The dividend is too high. Something's not right.
