Dine Brands remains a Buy, with a $35 price target, despite EPS misses and guidance cuts due to strong cash flow and a 9%+ dividend yield. Same-store sales are improving at Applebee's, driven by value platforms, while IHOP is nearing flat traffic; regional performance is mixed but stabilizing. Dual-branded units offer franchisees rapid payback and strong IRRs, supporting future expansion and royalty growth as closures subside.

Dine Brands: Growing Earnings And Improving Operations Despite Q2 YoY Declines

Dine Brands is showing qualitative improvements in traffic, ticket size, and customer sentiment, signaling a potential turning point despite lackluster Q2 earnings. The company's brands—IHOP, Applebee's, and Fuzzy's—are being rejuvenated through menu innovation, marketing, and a focus on core competencies.
