Brinker International (NYSE:EAT) Given New $207.00 Price Target at Morgan Stanley

Analyst Andrew Strelzik from BMO Capital has maintained a Hold rating on Brinker International, setting a price target of $175.00. Despite solid quarterly results and mid-single-digit sales gains at Chili's, macroeconomic pressures like rising gas prices and soft discretionary spending are impacting customer traffic. The company has reaffirmed its margin expansion outlook but faces challenges from rising food costs. Strelzik believes the current valuation presents a balanced risk-reward profile, leading to his Market Perform (Hold) stance.
