# Darden Restaurants: Business Model & Revenue Engine

## Direct Answer

Darden Restaurants reports revenue across 4 business segments in its fiscal 2025 Form 10-K. Olive Garden is the largest, with $5.2 billion of revenue (43% of the total), followed by Long Horn Steakhouse at $3.0 billion (25%).

## How Does Darden Restaurants Make Money?

No single line supplies a majority of revenue: the largest, Olive Garden, is 43%, which spreads Darden Restaurants's exposure across several demand drivers. Between fiscal 2024 and 2025, All Other grew fastest (+13.8%) and Fine Dining slowest (+1.0%), so the revenue mix tilts toward All Other while that gap lasts.

| Segment | FY2025 revenue | FY2024 revenue | Share of revenue | Change |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Olive Garden | $5.2 billion | $5.1 billion | 43.2% | 2.9% |
| Long Horn Steakhouse | $3.0 billion | $2.8 billion | 25.1% | 7.8% |
| All Other | $2.5 billion | $2.2 billion | 21.0% | 13.8% |
| Fine Dining | $1.3 billion | $1.3 billion | 10.8% | 1.0% |

## What the Segment Figures Do Not Show

The rows above add up to 100% of Darden Restaurants's reported revenue for fiscal 2025; the difference is intersegment eliminations, corporate revenue or items the company reports outside its segments. Segment definitions are management's choice and change when a company reorganizes, in which case it restates prior years in the next filing, so a multi-year comparison should use the figures from a single filing. Revenue shows where sales come from, not where profit or cash is earned: a small segment can carry most of the margin.

## Where These Numbers Come From

Every figure on this page is a value Darden Restaurants reported in the segment note and revenue disclosures of its Form 10-K filed July 18, 2025 (accession 0000940944-25-000038), read from the SEC's Financial Statement Data Sets. The prior-year column is the comparative figure from that same filing, so it reflects any restatement for a change in segments. Category names are the company's own XBRL labels, lightly reformatted for reading.

Rows that only total other rows (for example a "Products" line beside the individual products) are left out so nothing is counted twice. This page is educational and describes reported history for fiscal 2025; it is not a forecast or a recommendation.
