The inventory turnover ratios for Brinker International Inc. exhibit a notable trend over the analyzed period. Starting from a low of 23.85 in December 2020, the ratio increased significantly to reach 36.17 by September 2021, indicating an improvement in inventory management efficiency. The ratio continued to steadily rise throughout 2022 and into 2023, peaking at 46.29 in September 2024.

This upward trend suggests a consistent enhancement in inventory turnover, reflecting more efficient management of inventory levels relative to sales—possibly due to better inventory controls, increased sales efficiency, or both. The ratio experienced minor fluctuations, with slight dips observed at certain points, such as December 2020 and December 2023, but the overall trajectory remained upward.

Following the peak in September 2024, the ratio declined slightly to 45.66 in December 2024 and then decreased further to 38.51 in March 2025. This recent decline could indicate a temporary slowdown in inventory turnover or adjustments in inventory levels, though the ratio remains higher than the initial levels observed in 2020.

Overall, the data indicates a positive trend in inventory turnover over the period, with significant improvements established by 2024, suggesting that the company has been increasingly efficient in managing its inventory relative to its sales volume within this timeframe.
