GOOD TIMES RESTAURANTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)
|
Note 1.
|
Basis of Presentation
|
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Good Times Restaurants Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Bad Daddy’s International,
LLC (“BDI”), BD of Colorado, LLC (“BD of Colo”), Bad Daddy’s Franchise Development, LLC (“BDFD”),
and Good Times Drive Thru, Inc. (“Drive Thru”), (together referred to as the “Company”, “we”
or “us”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
BD of Colo was formed by Good Times Restaurants
Inc. in 2013 to develop Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar restaurants in the state of Colorado. Subsequently, BDI and BDFD were acquired
by Good Times Restaurants Inc. on May 7, 2015. Combined, these entities compose our Bad Daddy’s operating segment, which
as of March 26, 2019, operates twenty-eight company-owned and five joint venture full-service upscale casual dining restaurants
under the name Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar, primarily located in Colorado and in the Southeast region of the United States, franchises
one restaurant in South Carolina, and licenses the Bad Daddy’s brand for use at an airport Bad Daddy’s restaurant under
third-party operations and ownership.
Drive Thru commenced operations in 1986
and as of March 26, 2019, operates nineteen Company-owned and seven joint venture drive-thru fast food hamburger restaurants under
the name Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard. Drive Thru’s Company-owned restaurants are located in Colorado. In addition,
Drive Thru has nine franchisee-owned restaurants, with seven operating in Colorado and two in Wyoming.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices of the United
States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements contain all of the normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial
position of the Company as of March 26, 2019 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two fiscal quarters ended
March 26, 2019 and March 27, 2018. Operating results for the two fiscal quarters ended March 26, 2019 are not necessarily indicative
of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 24, 2019. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September
25, 2018 is derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles. As a result, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended September 25, 2018.
Fiscal Year
– The Company’s
fiscal year is a 52/53-week year ending on the last Tuesday of September. In a 52-week fiscal year, each of the Company’s
quarterly periods consist of 13 weeks. The additional week in a 53-week fiscal year is added to the first quarter, making such
quarter consist of 14 weeks.
Advertising Costs
– We utilize
Advertising Funds to administer certain advertising programs for both the Bad Daddy’s and Good Times brands that benefit
both us and our franchisees. We and our franchisees are required to contribute a percentage of gross sales to the fund.
As the contributions to these funds are designated and segregated for advertising. We consolidate the Advertising Funds into our
financial statements whereby contributions from franchisees, when received, are recorded and included as a component of franchise
revenues. As we intend to utilize all of the advertising contributions towards advertising expenditures, we recognize costs
equal to franchisee contributions to the advertising funds on a quarterly basis. Contributions to the Advertising Funds from our
franchisees were $142,000 and $175,000 for the first two quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
(“Topic 606), which was subsequently amended by several Accounting
Standards Updates. These new or updated standards expanded the disclosure requirements related to revenue and revenue recognition.
The Company adopted Topic 606 in the first quarter of its 2019 fiscal year and applied the guidance retrospectively to the prior
periods presented. Topic 606 primarily impacts the accounting presentation of the Company’s advertising contribution funds.
Because advertising expenses are incurred within the respective year in which contributions are recorded, there was no change to
the consolidated balance sheet, however for the first two fiscal quarters of 2018 franchise revenues and advertising costs are
each $175,000 greater than originally presented, and for the first two fiscal quarters of 2019 franchise revenues and advertising
costs are each $142,000 greater than would have been reflected under the former presentation.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues consist primarily of sales from
restaurant operations and franchise revenue, which includes franchisee royalties and contributions to advertising funds. Revenues
associated with gift card breakage are immaterial to our financials. The Company recognizes revenue, pursuant to the new and updated
standards, when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer, typically
a restaurant customer or a franchisee/licensee.
The Company recognizes revenues in the
form of restaurant sales at the time of the sale when payment is made by the customer, as the Company has completed its performance
obligation, namely the provision of food and beverage, and the accompanying customer service, during the customer’s visit
to the restaurant. The Company sells gift cards to customers and recognizes revenue from gift cards primarily in the form of restaurant
revenue. Gift Card breakage, which is recognized when the likelihood of a gift card being redeemed is remote, is determined based
upon the Company’s historic redemption patterns, and is immaterial to our overall financial statements.
Revenues we receive from our franchise
and license agreements include sales-based royalties, and from our franchise agreements also may include advertising fund contributions,
area development fees, and franchisee fees. We recognize sales-based royalties from franchisees and licensees as the underlying
sales occur. We similarly recognize advertising fund contributions from franchisees as the underlying sales occur. The Company
also provides its franchisees with services associated with opening new restaurants and operating them under franchise and development
agreements in exchange for area development and franchise fees. The Company would capitalize these fees upon receipt from the franchisee
and then would amortize those over the contracted franchise term as the services comprising the performance obligations are satisfied.
We have not received material development or franchise fees in the years presented, and the primary performance obligations under
existing franchise and development agreements have been satisfied prior to the earliest period presented in our financial statements.

losses in the periods presented in the above table or any prior periods.

assets during the two quarters ended March 26, 2019. The aggregate amortization expense related to these intangible assets subject
to amortization was approximately $15,000 for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019.

Stock-Based Compensation
|
The Company has traditionally maintained
incentive compensation plans that include provision for the issuance of equity-based awards. The Company established the 2008 Omnibus
Equity Incentive Compensation Plan in 2008 (the “2008 Plan”) and has outstanding awards that were issued under the
2008 Plan. Subsequently, the 2008 Plan expired in 2018 and the Company established a new plan, the 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive
Plan (the “2018 Plan”) during the third fiscal quarter of 2018, pursuant to shareholder approval. Future awards will
be issued under the 2018 plan.
Stock-based compensation is measured at
the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period
(generally the vesting period of the grant). The company recognizes the impact of forfeitures as forfeitures occur.
Our net loss for the two quarters ended
March 26, 2019 and March 27, 2018 includes $221,000 and $215,000, respectively, of compensation costs related to our stock-based
compensation arrangements.
Stock Option awards
The Company measures the compensation cost
associated with stock option awards by estimating the fair value of the award as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes pricing
model. The Company believes that the valuation technique and the approach utilized to develop the underlying assumptions are appropriate
in calculating the fair values of the Company’s stock options and stock awards granted during the two quarters ended March
26, 2019. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by the employees
who receive equity awards.
During the two quarters ended March 26,
2019, the Company granted a total of 99,832 incentive stock options, from available shares under its 2018 Plan, with exercise prices
between $4.66 and $5.00 and per-share weighted average fair values between $2.68 and $3.16.
During the two quarters ended
March 27, 2018, the Company granted a total of 18,274 incentive stock options, from available shares under its 2008 Plan, as amended,
with an exercise prices between $2.70 and $2.73 and per-share weighted average fair values between $1.65 and $1.95.
In addition to the exercise and
grant date prices of the stock option awards, certain weighted average assumptions that were used to estimate the fair value of
stock option grants are listed in the following table:

We estimate expected volatility based on
historical weekly price changes of our common stock for a period equal to the current expected term of the options. The risk-free
interest rate is based on the United States treasury yields in effect at the time of grant corresponding with the expected term
of the options. The expected option term is the number of years we estimate that options will be outstanding prior to exercise
considering vesting schedules and our historical exercise patterns.

As of March 26, 2019, the aggregate intrinsic
value of the outstanding and exercisable options was approximately $61,000 and $61,000, respectively. Only options whose exercise
price is below the current market price of the underlying stock are included in the intrinsic value calculation.
As of March 26, 2019, the total remaining
unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options was $618,000 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted
average period of approximately 2.4 years.
There were 667 stock options exercised
during the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 with proceeds of approximately $4,000. There were no stock options exercised during
the two quarters ended March 27, 2018.
Restricted Stock Units
During the two quarters ended March 26,
2019, the Company granted a total of 79,988 restricted stock units from available shares under its 2018 Plan. The shares were issued
with a grant date fair market value of $3.95 which is equal to the closing price of the stock on the date of the grant. The restricted
stock units vest over three years following the grant date.
During
the
two
quarters ended March 27, 2018, the Company granted a total
of 37,037 shares of restricted stock from available shares under its 2008 Plan, as amended. The shares were issued with a grant
date fair market value of $2.70 which is equal to the closing price of the stock on the date of the grant. The restricted stock
grant vests over three years following the grant date.

Notes Payable and Long-Term Debt

Cadence Credit Facility
The Company maintains a credit agreement
with Cadence Bank (“Cadence”) pursuant to which, as amended, Cadence agreed to loan the Company up to $17,000,000 with
a maturity date of December 31, 2021 (the “Cadence Credit Facility”). On February 21, 2019 the Cadence Credit Facility
was amended, in connection with the RGWP Repurchase, to retroactively attribute EBITDA previously attributed to non-controlling
interests to the Company for purposes of certain financial covenants. As amended by the various amendments, the Cadence Credit
Facility accrues commitment fees on the daily unused balance of the facility at a rate of 0.25%. All borrowings under the Cadence
Credit Facility, as amended, bear interest at a variable rate based upon the Company’s election of (i) 2.5% plus the base
rate, which is the highest of the (a) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Cadence bank publicly-announced prime rate, and (c)
LIBOR plus 1.0%, or (ii) LIBOR, with a 0.250% floor, plus 3.5%. Interest is due at the end of each calendar quarter if the Company
selects to pay interest based on the base rate and at the end of each LIBOR period if it selects to pay interest based on LIBOR.
As of March 26, 2019, the weighted average interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Cadence Credit Facility was 5.9907%.
The Cadence Credit Facility, as amended,
contains certain affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that the Company considers customary for an agreement
of this type, including covenants setting a maximum leverage ratio of 5.35:1, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25:1 and
minimum liquidity of $2,000,000. As of March 26, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Cadence Credit
Facility.
As a result of entering into the Cadence
Credit Facility and the various amendments, the Company paid loan origination costs including professional fees of approximately
$232,000 and is amortizing these costs over the term of the credit agreement.
The obligations under the Cadence Credit
Facility are collateralized by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets.
As of March 26, 2019, the outstanding balance
on borrowings against the facility was $12,300,000. Availability of the Cadence Credit Facility for borrowings is reduced by the
outstanding face value of any letters of credit issued under the facility. As of March 26, 2019, the outstanding face value of
such letters of credit was $157,500.

Note 7.
|
Net Loss per Common Share
|
Our basic earnings
per share calculation is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Our diluted earnings per share
calculation is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted by the number of additional
shares that would have been outstanding had the potentially dilutive common shares been issued. Potentially dilutive securities
for this calculation consist of in-the-money outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and warrants (which were assumed
to have been exercised at the average market price of the common shares during the reporting period). The treasury stock method
is used to measure the dilutive impact of in-the-money stock options. Options and restricted stock grants for 892,766 and 781,789
shares of common stock were not included in computing diluted EPS for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 and March 27, 2018,
respectively, because their effects were anti-dilutive.
|
Note 8.
|
Contingent Liabilities and Liquidity
|
We remain contingently liable on various
leases underlying restaurants that were previously sold to franchisees. We have never experienced any losses related to these contingent
lease liabilities, however if a franchisee defaults on the payments under the leases, we would be liable for the lease payments
as the assignor or sub-lessor of the lease. Currently we have not been notified nor are we aware of any leases in default by the
franchisees, however there can be no assurance that there will not be in the future which could have a material effect on our future
operating results.
Additionally, in the normal course of business,
there may be various claims in process, matters in litigation, and other contingencies brought against the company by employees,
vendors, customers, franchisees, or other parties. Evaluating these contingencies is a complex process that may involve substantial
judgment on the potential outcome of such matters, and the ultimate outcome of such contingencies may differ from our current analysis.
We review the adequacy of accruals and disclosures related to such contingent liabilities in consultation with legal counsel. While
it is not possible to predict the outcome of these claims with certainty, it is management’s opinion that potential losses
associated with such contingencies would be immaterial to our financial statements.
|
Note 9.
|
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill
|
Long-Lived Assets.
We review
our long-lived assets for impairment, including land, property and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison
of the capitalized costs of the assets to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets and the
expected cash flows are based on recent historical cash flows at the restaurant level (the lowest level that cash flows can be
determined).
On January 30, 2018 the Company closed
one Good Times restaurant in Aurora, Colorado. A non-cash impairment charge of $219,000 related to this restaurant was previously
taken in the fiscal year ended September 26, 2017 and no additional loss from disposal of assets has been subsequently recognized
in the current year, nor is any additional loss expected. The Company is currently marketing the property and intends to sublease
the property to a suitable tenant over the approximate 17-year remaining term of the lease. The Company expects to be able to sublease
this property at or above its contractual lease rate but does not expect such sublease commencement until later in fiscal 2019.
As such, we recorded accretion expense recognized as non-cash rent of approximately $48,000 in the fiscal year ended September
25, 2018, and approximately $73,000 in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, reflecting the expected fair value of future lease
costs, net of sublease income, associated with the closing of this restaurant.
Given the results of our analysis at March
27, 2018, we identified one restaurant where the expected future cash flows would not be sufficient to recover the carrying value
of the associated assets. This restaurant, an additional Good Times restaurant in Aurora, Colorado, was closed on April 22, 2018.
We recorded a non-cash charge of $72,000 related to the impairment of this restaurant during the quarter ending March 27, 2018.
No additional loss from disposal of assets is expected associated with this property. Prior to its closure, on April 6, 2018, the
Company entered into a sublease of this property, the terms of which will provide sublease income substantially equal to the lease
costs over the approximate 5 remaining years of the lease.
Trademarks.
Trademarks have
been determined to have an indefinite life. We evaluate our trademarks for impairment annually and on an interim basis as events
and circumstances warrant by comparing the fair value of the trademarks with their carrying amount. There was no impairment required
to the acquired trademarks as of March 26, 2019 and March 27, 2018.
Goodwill.
Goodwill represents
the excess of cost over fair value of the assets of businesses the Company acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather, the
Company is required to test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever indications of impairment arise. The Company
considers its operations to be comprised of two reporting units: (1) Good Times restaurants and (2) Bad Daddy’s restaurants.
As of March 26, 2019, the Company had $96,000 of goodwill attributable to the Good Times reporting unit and $15,054,000 of goodwill
attributable to its Bad Daddy’s reporting unit. No goodwill impairment charges were recognized as of March 26, 2019 and March
27, 2018.
We account for income taxes using the liability
method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between the financial reporting
and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences
are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated
realizable value. The deferred tax assets are reviewed periodically for recoverability and valuation allowances are adjusted as
necessary.
The Company has significant net operating
loss carry-forwards from prior years and incurred additional net operating losses during the two quarters ended March 26, 2019
and March 27, 2018. These losses resulted in an increase in the related deferred tax assets; however, valuation allowances were
provided which reduced these deferred tax assets to zero; therefore, no income tax provision or benefit was recognized for the
two quarters ended March 26, 2019 and March 27, 2018 resulting in an effective income tax rate of 0% for both periods.
The Company is subject to taxation in various
jurisdictions within the U.S. The Company continues to remain subject to examination by U.S. federal authorities for the years
2015 through 2018. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does
not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results
of operations, or cash flows. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded. The Company’s
practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. No accrual for interest
and penalties was considered necessary as of March 26, 2019.

Non-controlling Interests
|
Non-controlling interests are presented
as a separate item in the stockholders’ equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The amount of consolidated
net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests is presented on the face of the condensed consolidated statement of
operations. Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions,
while changes in ownership interest that do result in deconsolidation of a subsidiary require gain or loss recognition based on
the fair value on the deconsolidation date.
The equity interests of the unrelated limited
partners and members are shown on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet in the stockholders’ equity section as a non-controlling
interest and is adjusted each period to reflect the limited partners’ and members’ share of the net income or loss
as well as any cash contributions or distributions to or from the limited partners and members for the period. The limited partners’
and members’ share of the net income or loss in the subsidiary is shown as non-controlling interest income or expense in
the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated.
On February 6, 2019, the Company concurrently
entered into and closed on a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with RGWP, LLC (the “RGWP Repurchase”), pursuant
to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the remaining membership interests of three entities to which the Company is already
a party to and already owned a controlling interest: Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar of Seaboard LLC, Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar
of Cary, LLC, and BDBB of Olive Park NC, LLC. The purchase price was approximately $3.0 million of which $2.7 was paid at closing,
$300,000 was accrued at March 26, 2019 and paid subsequent to the quarter end. These entities own and operate three Bad Daddy’s
Burger Bar restaurants in the greater Raleigh, NC market. The purchase agreement contains various representations, warranties,
and covenants of the Seller that are customary in transactions of this nature.
The RGWP Repurchase resulted in a $788,000
reduction in non-controlling interests, an increase to non-compete agreements of $50,000 and a $2,171,000 reduction in additional
paid in capital.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
|
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09,
“Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).”
This update was issued to replace the current revenue recognition
guidance, creating a more comprehensive five-step model. In March 2016, the FASB issued No. ASU 2016-04, “Liabilities –
Extinguishments of Liabilities: Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products.” This pronouncement provides
guidance for the derecognition of prepaid stored-value product liabilities, consistent with the breakage guidance in Topic 606.
These amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years.
We adopted these ASUs effective as of September 26, 2018. The adoption of these new standards did not have a material impact to
our revenue recognition related to Company-owned restaurant sales, recognition of royalty fees from our franchise agreement, or
impact from recognition of gift card breakage. As discussed in Note 2 and further described below, the adoption of this standard
did have an impact on the presentation of advertising fund contributions from our franchises. Prior to the adoption of these new
standards, we accounted for advertising expenses net of advertising contributions from our franchisees. Subsequently, as described
in Notes 1 and 2, we now account for franchisee advertising contributions as a component of franchise revenue. Because advertising
expenses are incurred within the respective year in which contributions are recorded, there was no change to the consolidated balance
sheet, however for the first two fiscal quarters of 2018 franchise revenues and advertising costs are each $175,000 greater than
originally presented, and for the first two fiscal quarters of 2019 franchise revenues and advertising costs are each $142,000
greater than would have been reflected under the former presentation.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.
2016-02,
“Leases (Topic 842)”
, (ASU 2016-02), which replaces the existing guidance in Accounting Standard Codification
840, Leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018.
This pronouncement requires a dual approach for lessee accounting under which a lessee would account for leases as finance leases
or operating leases. Both finance leases and operating leases will result in the lessee recognizing a right-of-use asset and a
corresponding lease liability. Subsequently FASB has issued several other Accounting Standards Updates, including ASU 2018-11 and
ASU 2018-12, which among other things provide for a practical expedient related to the recognition of the cumulative effective
on retained earnings resulting from the adoption of the pronouncements. We expect to adopt these ASU’s effective September
25, 2019 and expect that the adoption of these standards will result in a significant increase in our long-term assets and liabilities
given we have a significant number of leases.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No.
2017-04,
“Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) – Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,”
which eliminates Step 2 from the impairment test applied to goodwill. Under the new standard, goodwill impairment tests will compare
the fair value of a reporting unit with it’s carrying amount. An impairment charge will be recognized for the amount by which
the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill. This pronouncement
is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and should be applied on a prospective basis. We
adopted this ASU effective as of the quarter-end March 26, 2019. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact
on our financial position or results from operations.

Segment Reporting
|
All of our Good Times Burgers and Frozen
Custard restaurants (Good Times) compete in the quick-service drive-through dining industry while our Bad Daddy’s Burger
Bar restaurants (Bad Daddy’s) compete in the full-service upscale casual dining industry. We believe that providing this
additional financial information for each of our brands will provide a better understanding of our overall operating results. Income
(loss) from operations represents revenues less restaurant operating costs and expenses, directly allocable general and administrative
expenses, and other restaurant-level expenses directly associated with each brand including depreciation and amortization, pre-opening
costs and losses or gains on disposal of property and equipment. Unallocated corporate capital expenditures are presented below
as reconciling items to the amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2.
|
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
|
This Form 10-Q contains or incorporates
by reference forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and the disclosure
of risk factors in the Company’s form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 25, 2018. Also, documents subsequently filed
by us with the SEC and incorporated herein by reference may contain forward-looking statements. We caution investors that any forward-looking
statements made by us are not guarantees of future performance and actual results could differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to the following:
|
(I)
|
We compete with numerous well-established competitors who have substantially
greater financial resources and longer operating histories than we do. Competitors have increasingly offered selected food items
and combination meals, including hamburgers, at discounted prices, and continued discounting by competitors may adversely affect
revenues and profitability of Company restaurants.
|
|
(II)
|
We may be negatively impacted if we experience same store sales declines.
Same store sales comparisons will be dependent, among other things, on the success of our advertising and promotion of new and
existing menu items. No assurances can be given that such advertising and promotions will in fact be successful.
|
We may also be negatively impacted by other
factors common to the restaurant industry such as: changes in consumer tastes away from red meat and fried foods; increases in
the cost of food, paper, labor, health care, workers' compensation or energy; inadequate number of hourly paid employees; and/or
decreases in the availability of affordable capital resources. We caution the reader that such risk factors are not exhaustive,
particularly with respect to future filings. For further discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Part I, Item 1A, “Risk
Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 25, 2018.
Overview.
Good Times Restaurant Inc., through its
subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “we”, “us” or “our”) operates and
franchises/licenses full service hamburger-oriented restaurants under the name Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar (Bad Daddy’s)
and operates and franchises hamburger-oriented drive-through restaurants under the name Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard
(Good Times).
We are focused on developing the Bad Daddy’s
concept with company-owned restaurants in major markets of the U.S., while continuing to improve the profitability of Good Times
and opportunistically developing additional Good Times restaurants in our home state of Colorado, allowing us to leverage the strength
and opportunities of both brands.
Growth Strategies and Outlook.
We believe there are significant opportunities
to develop new units, grow customer traffic and increase awareness of our brands. The following sets for the key elements of our
growth strategy:
|
·
|
Pursue disciplined growth of company-operated
Bad Daddy’s restaurants
|
|
·
|
Optimize the long-term profitability of Good
Times restaurants to reinvest in Bad Daddy’s development, while improving operational efficiencies for both concepts
|
|
·
|
Generate consistently positive same-store
sales in both brands by delivering food and service that are differentiated in each of their respective competitive segments
|
Restaurant locations
.
As of March 26, 2019, we operated, franchised
or licensed a total of thirty-five Bad Daddy’s restaurants and thirty-five Good Times restaurants. The following table presents

Results of Operations
Fiscal quarter ended March 26, 2019
compared to fiscal quarter ended March 27, 2018:
Net Revenues.
Net revenues
for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 increased $3,576,000 or 15.2% to $27,172,000 from $23,596,000 for the quarter ended March
27, 2018. Bad Daddy’s concept revenues increased $4,427,000 while our Good Times concept revenues decreased $851,000.
Bad Daddy’s restaurant sales increased
$4,430,000 to $20,384,000 for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 from $15,954,000 for the quarter ended March 27, 2018, primarily
attributable to the six new restaurants opened in the last two quarters of fiscal 2018 and two new restaurant opened in the two
quarters of fiscal 2019. Bad Daddy’s same store restaurant sales increased 1.3% during the quarter ended March 26, 2019 compared
to the same prior-year quarter. Adjusted for the impact of a single storm in Colorado that resulted in the loss of twelve operating
days the same store sales increase would have been 1.8%. Bad Daddy’s restaurants are included in same store sales after they
have been open a full eighteen months. Comparable sales are calculated excluding weeks during which restaurants are closed for
major remodels. The average menu price increase for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 over the same prior-year quarter was approximately
1.7%. There were twenty-one restaurants included in the same store sales base at the end of the quarter. Additionally, net revenues
decreased by $2,000 due to lower franchise revenues compared to the same prior-year quarter. The current and prior year quarters
include franchise advertising contributions of $3,000 and $4,000, respectively.
Good Times restaurant sales decreased $818,000
to $6,570,000 for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 from $7,388,000 for the quarter ended March 27, 2018. Good Times same store
restaurant sales decreased 7.5% during the quarter ended March 26, 2019 compared to the same prior-year quarter. Same store sales
were affected by a single storm in Colorado that caused the loss of approximately twenty-seven operating days. Adjusted for this
loss, same store sales would have been down 5.9%. To align Good Times’ same store sales calculations with same store sales
calculations for Bad Daddy’s, beginning in fiscal 2018 Good Times restaurants are included in the same store sales calculation
after they have been open a full eighteen months. In addition to the decline in same store sales, restaurant sales decreased $241,000
due to two restaurants that were closed in January and April of 2018. The average menu price increase for the quarter ended March
26, 2019 over the same prior-year quarter was approximately 2.8%. Franchise revenues decreased $33,000 for the quarter ended March
26, 2019, compared to the same prior year quarter, primarily due to one franchise location that closed in September 2018 and one
location that was temporarily closed due to a fire that occurred in April 2018. The current and prior year quarters include franchise
advertising contributions of $67,000 and $83,000, respectively.
Food and Packaging Costs.
Food and packaging costs for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 increased $785,000 to $7,903,000 (29.3% of restaurant sales) from
$7,118,000 (30.5% of restaurant sales) for the quarter ended March 27, 2018.
Bad Daddy’s food and packaging costs
were $5,804,000 (28.5% of restaurant sales) for the quarter ended March 26, 2019, up from $4,727,000 (29.6% of restaurant sales)
for the quarter ended March 27, 2018. This increase is primarily due to a greater number of operating restaurants during the current
quarter versus the same quarter in the prior year. The decline as a percent of sales is primarily due to a sequential reduction
in cost of proteins, primarily beef, coupled with year-over-year increases in menu prices.
Good Times food and packaging costs were
$2,099,000 (31.9% of restaurant sales) for the quarter ended March 26, 2019, down from $2,391,000 (32.4% of restaurant sales) for
the quarter ended March 27, 2018. The decrease as a percent of sales is due primarily to reduced prices for bacon and all-natural
beef, coupled with year-over-year increases in menu prices.
Payroll and Other Employee Benefit
Costs.
Payroll and other employee benefit costs for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 increased $1,586,000 to $10,228,000
(37.9% of restaurant sales) from $8,642,000 (37.0% of restaurant sales) for the quarter ended March 27, 2018.
Bad Daddy’s payroll and other employee
benefit costs were $7,669,000 (37.6% of restaurant sales) for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 up from $5,969,000 (37.4% of restaurant
sales) in the same prior year period. The $1,700,000 increase was primarily attributable to the six new restaurants opened in the
last two quarters of fiscal 2018 and two new restaurants opened in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. As a percent of sales,
payroll and employee benefits costs increased by 0.2%, as increased wages, particularly for kitchen workers, increased in all states
due to a competitive market for workers, and due to statutory wage increases for front-of-house employees in Colorado, all of which
combined exceeded the impact of our year-over-year menu price increases.
Good Times payroll and other employee benefit
costs were $2,559,000 (39.0% of restaurant sales) in the quarter ended March 26, 2019, down from $2,673,000 (36.2% of restaurant
sales) in the same prior year period. Payroll and other employee benefit costs decreased $114,000 from the same prior-year quarter
due two stores that were closed in January and April of 2018, coupled with lower average weekly sales, but increased as a percentage
of restaurant sales primarily due to the average wage paid to our employees and the deleveraging impact of lower weekly sales.
The average wage increased approximately 10.4% in the quarter ended March 26, 2019 compared to the same prior year period. This
average wage increase is attributable to a very competitive labor market in Colorado and statutory increases in the minimum wage
rate.
Occupancy Costs.
Occupancy
costs for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 increased $377,000 to $2,165,000 (8.0% of restaurant sales) from $1,788,000 (7.7% of
restaurant sales) for the quarter ended March 27, 2018.
Bad Daddy’s occupancy costs were
$1,354,000 (6.6% of restaurant sales) for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 up from $1,018,000 (6.4% of restaurant sales) in the
same prior year period. The $336,000 increase was primarily attributable to the six new restaurants opened in the last two quarters
of fiscal 2018 and two new restaurants opened in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019.
Good Times occupancy costs were $811,000
(12.3% of restaurant sales) in the quarter ended March 26, 2019, up from $770,000 (10.4% of restaurant sales) in the same prior
year period. The $41,000 increase was primarily attributable to an increase in property taxes and common area costs compared to
the same prior year period, and the increase as a percentage of sales is due to the deleveraging impact of lower average unit volumes.
Other Operating Costs.
Other
operating costs for the quarter ended March 26, 2019, increased $692,000 to $2,829,000 (10.5% of restaurant sales) from $2,137,000
(9.2% of restaurant sales) for the quarter ended March 27, 2018.
Bad Daddy’s other operating costs
were $2,237,000 (11.0% of restaurant sales) for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 up from $1,541,000 (9.7% of restaurant sales)
in the same prior year period. The $696,000 increase was primarily attributable to the six new restaurants opened in the last two
quarters of fiscal 2018 and two new restaurants opened in the first two quarters of fiscal 2019. The percentage increase was primarily
attributable to higher costs of general restaurant supplies and approximately $163,000 of increased commissions paid to delivery
service providers in the current quarter which were not incurred in the prior year quarter.
Good Times other operating costs were $592,000
(9.0% of restaurant sales) in the quarter ended March 26, 2019, down from $596,000 (8.1% of restaurant sales) in the same prior
year period. The increase as a percentage of sales is due to the deleveraging impact of lower average unit volumes.
New Store Preopening Costs.
In the quarter ended March 26, 2019, we incurred $193,000 of preopening costs compared to $496,000 for the quarter ended March
27, 2018. All of the preopening costs are related to our Bad Daddy’s restaurants.
Preopening costs in the current quarter
are primarily attributable to two restaurants: one restaurant that opened during the first fiscal quarter, and one restaurant that
opened in January 2019. In the prior-year period, pre-opening costs are related to the two Bad Daddy’s restaurants opened
during the first fiscal quarter of 2018 and one that opened during the second quarter of fiscal 2018.
Preopening costs typically occur over a
period of approximately five months, although the exact timing varies by location. We typically spend approximately $275,000 to
$350,000 per location.
Depreciation and Amortization Costs
.
Depreciation and amortization costs for the quarter ended March 26, 2019, increased $207,000 to $1,089,000 from $882,000 in the
quarter ended March 27, 2018.
Bad Daddy’s depreciation and amortization
costs were $863,000 for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 up from $656,000 in the same prior year period. This increase was mainly
attributable to the nine new restaurants opened in fiscal 2018 and two new restaurants opened in the two quarters ended March 26,
2019.
Good Times depreciation and amortization
costs were $225,000 for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 down from $226,000 in the same prior year period.
General and Administrative Costs.
General and administrative costs for the quarter ended March 26, 2019, increased $295,000 to $2,193,000 (8.1% of total revenue)
from $1,898,000 (8.0% of total revenues) for the quarter ended March 27, 2018.
The $295,000 increase in general and administrative
expenses in the quarter ended March 26, 2019 is primarily attributable to:
|
·
|
Increase in salaries, wages, and employee
benefit costs associated with manager training of $107,000
|
|
·
|
Decrease in shared services salaries,
wages, and employee benefit costs of $44,000
|
|
·
|
Increase in salaries, wages, and employee
benefit costs associated with district management of $85,000, primarily related to additional district management for our east
coast Bad Daddy’s markets, partially offset by reductions in the Colorado market costs for both Bad Daddy’s and Good
Times
|
|
·
|
Increase in training and recruiting costs
of $46,000
|
|
·
|
Increase in professional fees and preliminary
site costs of $67,000
|
|
·
|
Net increases in all other expenses of
$34,000
|
Total general and administrative costs
will continue to increase as we build up our infrastructure to support the growth of both of our brands, however we anticipate
over the long term they will decrease as a percentage of revenue as additional restaurants are developed.
Advertising Costs.
Advertising
costs for the quarter ended March 26, 2019, decreased $55,000 to $547,000 (2.0% of total revenue) from $602,000 (2.6% of total
revenue) for the quarter ended March 27, 2018. The decline as a percentage of revenues is primarily due to the growth of the Bad
Daddy’s segment, which has lower advertising costs as a percentage of revenue compared to the Good Times segment.
Bad Daddy’s advertising costs were
$190,000 (0.9% of total revenue) in the quarter ended March 26, 2019 compared to $177,000 (1.1% of total revenue) in the same prior
year period. The $13,000 increase was primarily attributable to the six new restaurants opened during the last two quarters of
fiscal 2018 and the two restaurants opened during the first two fiscal quarters of 2019, partially offset by a reduction in local
store marketing. The current and prior year quarters include advertising costs of $3,000 and $4,000, respectively, of costs associated
with franchise advertising contributions.
Good Times advertising costs were $357,000
(5.4% of total revenue) in the quarter ended March 26, 2019 compared to $425,000 (5.8% of total revenue) in the same prior year
period. This $68,000 decline is due primarily to reduced contributions to the advertising fund due to the two restaurants that
closed during fiscal 2018 and lower sales among existing company- and franchisee-owned restaurants. The current and prior year
quarters include advertising costs of $67,000 and $83,000, respectively, of costs associated with franchise advertising contributions.
Bad Daddy’s advertising costs consist
primarily of contributions made to the advertising materials fund based on a percentage of restaurant sales as well as local store
marketing efforts.
Good Times advertising costs consists primarily
of contributions made to the advertising materials fund and a regional advertising cooperative based on a percentage of restaurant
sales which are used to provide television and radio advertising, social media and on-site and point-of-purchase. Advertising costs
are presented gross, with franchisee contributions to the fund being recognized as a component of franchise revenues. As a percentage
of total revenue, we expect advertising costs to remain relatively stable at approximately 5.4% of total revenue for the Good Times
segment.
Franchise Costs.
Franchise
costs were $16,000 and $11,000 for the quarters ended March 26, 2019 and March 27, 2018, respectively. The costs are primarily
related to the Good Times franchised restaurants.
Asset impairment costs.
There
were no asset impairment costs for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 and asset impairment costs were $72,000 for the quarter ended
March 27, 2018. The costs are related to a Good Times restaurant that was closed and subleased in April 2018, as described in Note
9 to the financial statements.
Gain on Restaurant Asset Disposals.
The gain on restaurant asset disposals for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 and the quarter ended March 27, 2018 was consistent
at $9.000 for both periods. The gain in the both periods is related to deferred gains on previous sale lease-back transactions
on two Good Times restaurants.
Loss from Operations
.
Income
from operations was $18,000 in the quarter ended March 26, 2019 compared to a loss from operations of $41,000 in the quarter ended
March 27, 2018.
The change in income from operations for
the quarter and year-to-date was due primarily to matters discussed in the "Net Revenues”, "Restaurant Operating
Costs", “Asset Impairment Costs” and "General and Administrative Costs" sections above.
Net Loss
.
The net loss was
$180,000 for the quarter ended March 26, 2019 compared to a net loss of $132,000 in the quarter ended March 27, 2018.
The change in net loss for the quarter
was primarily attributable to the matters discussed in the "Net Revenues", "Restaurant Operating Costs", “Asset
Impairment Costs” and "General and Administrative Costs", as well as an increase in net interest expense of $108,000
for the current quarter, compared to the same prior year period.
Income Attributable to Non-Controlling
Interests
.
The non-controlling interest represents the limited partners’ or members’ share of income in the
Good Times and Bad Daddy’s joint venture restaurants.
For the quarter ended March 26, 2019, the
income attributable to non-controlling interests was $270,000 compared to $299,000 for the quarter ended March 27, 2018.
$233,000 of the current quarter’s
income is attributable to the BDI joint-venture restaurants, compared to $224,000 in the same prior year period. This increase
is due to an increase in joint venture store operating weeks due to two new joint venture restaurants opened during the final quarter
of fiscal 2018, offset by the elimination of non-controlling interest beginning this fiscal quarter associated with the repurchase
of interests in the three Raleigh area restaurants. $36,000 of the current quarter’s income is attributable to the Good Times
joint-venture restaurants, compared to $75,000 in the same prior year period. This decline is due to the reduction in profitability
of the seven co-developed Good Times restaurants.
Fiscal two quarters ended March 26,
2019 compared to fiscal two quarters ended March 27, 2018:
Net Revenues.
Net revenues
for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 increased $6,098,000 or 13.1% to $52,542,000 from $46,444,000 for the quarter ended March
27, 2018. Bad Daddy’s concept revenues increased $7,692,000 while our Good Times concept revenues decreased $1,594,000.
Bad Daddy’s restaurant sales increased
$7,693,000 to $38,634,000 for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 from $30,941,000 for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018,
primarily attributable to the nine new restaurants opened in fiscal 2018 and two new restaurant opened in the two quarters ended
March 26, 2019. Bad Daddy’s same store restaurant sales increased 0.8% during the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 compared
to the same prior-year period. Bad Daddy’s restaurants are included in same store sales after they have been open a full
eighteen months. Comparable sales are calculated excluding weeks during which restaurants are closed for major remodels. The average
menu price increase for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 over the same prior-year period was approximately 2.6%. There were
twenty-one restaurants included in the same store sales base at the end of the quarter. Franchise revenues decreased $1,000 for
the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 compared to the same prior-year period. The current and prior year periods include franchise
advertising contributions of $7,000 and $8,000, respectively.
Good Times restaurant sales decreased $1,531,000
to $13,467,000 for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 from $14,998,000 for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018. Good Times
same store restaurant sales decreased 6.3% during the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 compared to the same prior-year period.
To align Good Times’ same store sales calculations with same store sales calculations for Bad Daddy’s, beginning in
fiscal 2018 Good Times restaurants are included in the same store sales calculation after they have been open a full eighteen months.
Restaurant sales decreased $578,000 due to two restaurants that were closed in January and April of 2018. The average menu price
increase for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 over the same prior-year period was approximately 3.2%. Franchise revenues decreased
$63,000 for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, compared to the same prior year period, primarily due to one franchise location
that closed in September 2018 and one location that was temporarily closed due to a fire that occurred in April 2018. The current
and prior year quarters include franchise advertising contributions of $135,000 and $167,000, respectively.
Food and Packaging Costs.
Food and packaging costs for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 increased $1,105,000 to $15,426,000 (29.6% of restaurant sales)
from $14,321,000 (31.2% of restaurant sales) for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018. This increase is primarily due to a greater
number of operating restaurants during the current period versus the same period in the prior year.
Bad Daddy’s food and packaging costs
were $11,073,000 (28.7% of restaurant sales) for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, up from $9,360,000 (30.3% of restaurant
sales) for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018. This increase is primarily due to a greater number of operating restaurants during
the current period versus the same period in the prior year. The decline as a percent of sales is primarily due to a sequential
reduction in cost of proteins, primarily beef, coupled with year-over-year increases in menu prices.
Good Times food and packaging costs were
$4,353,000 (32.3% of restaurant sales) for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, down from $4,961,000 (33.1% of restaurant sales)
for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018. In addition to the factors affecting the quarter ending March 26, 2019, current year
food and packaging costs at Good Times were favorably affected by the increased discounting of kid’s meals that was in place
during the first quarter of fiscal 2018.
Payroll and Other Employee Benefit
Costs.
Payroll and other employee benefit costs for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 increased $2,860,000 to $19,781,000
(38.0% of restaurant sales) from $16,921,000 (36.8% of restaurant sales) for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018.
Bad Daddy’s payroll and other employee
benefit costs were $14,651,000 (37.9% of restaurant sales) for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 up from $11,563,000 (37.4%
of restaurant sales) in the same prior year period. The $3,088,000 increase was primarily attributable to the nine new restaurants
opened in fiscal 2018 and two new restaurants opened in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019. As a percent of sales, payroll and
employee benefits costs increased by 0.5%, as increased wages, particularly for kitchen workers, increased in all states due to
a competitive market for workers, and due to statutory wage increases for front-of-house employees in Colorado, all of which combined
exceeded the impact of our year-over-year menu price increases.
Good Times payroll and other employee benefit
costs were $5,130,000 (38.1% of restaurant sales) in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, down from $5,358,000 (35.7% of restaurant
sales) in the same prior year period. Payroll and other employee benefit costs decreased $258,000 from the same prior-year quarter
due two stores that were closed in January and April of 2018, coupled with lower average weekly sales, but increased as a percentage
of restaurant sales primarily due to the average wage paid to our employees and the deleveraging impact of lower weekly sales.
The average wage increased approximately 10.4% in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 compared to the same prior year period.
This average wage increase is attributable to a very competitive labor market in Colorado and statutory increases in the minimum
wage rate.
Occupancy Costs.
Occupancy
costs for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 increased $702,000 to $4,130,000 (7.9% of restaurant sales) from $3,428,000 (7.5%
of restaurant sales) for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018.
Bad Daddy’s occupancy costs were
$2,632,000 (6.8% of restaurant sales) for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 up from $1,958,000 (6.3% of restaurant sales) in
the same prior year period. The $674,000 increase was primarily attributable to the nine new restaurants opened in fiscal 2018
and two new restaurants opened in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019.
Good Times occupancy costs were $1,498,000
(11.1% of restaurant sales) in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, up from $1,470,000 (9.8% of restaurant sales) in the same
prior year period. The $28,000 increase was primarily attributable to an increase in property taxes and common area costs compared
to the same prior year period, and the increase as a percentage of sales is due to the deleveraging impact of lower average unit
volumes.
Other Operating Costs.
Other
operating costs for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, increased $1,159,000 to $5,412,000 (10.4% of restaurant sales) from
$4,253,000 (9.3% of restaurant sales) for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018.
Bad Daddy’s other operating costs
were $4,220,000 (10.9% of restaurant sales) for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 up from $3,008,000 (9.7% of restaurant sales)
in the same prior year period. The $1,212,000 increase was primarily attributable to the nine new restaurants opened in fiscal
2018 and two new restaurants opened in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019. The percentage increase was primarily attributable
to higher costs of general restaurant supplies and approximately $301,000 of increased commissions paid to delivery service providers
in the current year which were not incurred in the prior year.
Good Times other operating costs were $1,192,000
(8.9% of restaurant sales) in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, down from $1,245,000 (8.3% of restaurant sales) in the same
prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to the two restaurants that closed in 2018. The increase as a percentage
of sales is due to the deleveraging impact of lower average unit volumes.
New Store Preopening Costs.
In the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, we incurred $820,000 of preopening costs compared to $1,073,000 for the two quarters
ended March 27, 2018. All of the preopening costs are related to our Bad Daddy’s restaurants.
Preopening costs in the two quarters ended
March 26, 2019 are primarily attributable to four restaurants: two that opened late during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018, one
restaurant that opened during the first fiscal quarter of 2019, and one restaurant that opened in the second fiscal quarter of
2019. In the prior-year period, pre-opening costs are related to the two Bad Daddy’s restaurants opened during the first
fiscal quarter of 2018 and one that opened during the second quarter of fiscal 2018.
Preopening costs typically occur over a
period of approximately five months, although the exact timing varies by location. We typically spend approximately $275,000 to
$350,000 per location.
Depreciation and Amortization Costs
.
Depreciation and amortization costs for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, increased $395,000 to $2,123,000 from $1,728,000
in the two quarters ended March 27, 2018.
Bad Daddy’s depreciation and amortization
costs were $1,679,000 for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 up from $1,276,000 in the same prior year period. This increase
was mainly attributable to the nine new restaurants opened in fiscal 2018 and two new restaurants opened in the two quarters ended
March 26, 2019.
Good Times depreciation and amortization
costs were $444,000 for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 down from $452,000 in the same prior year period.
General and Administrative Costs.
General and administrative costs for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, increased $439,000 to $4,254,000 (8.1% of total revenue)
from $3,815,000 (8.2% of total revenues) for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018.
The $439,000 increase in general and administrative
expenses in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 is primarily attributable to:
|
·
|
Increase in salaries, wages, and employee
benefit costs associated with manager training of $275,000
|
|
·
|
Decrease in shared services salaries,
wages, and employee benefit costs of $97,000
|
|
·
|
Increase in salaries, wages, and employee
benefit costs associated with district management of $107,000, primarily related to additional district management for our east
coast Bad Daddy’s markets, partially offset by a reduction in the Colorado market costs for our Good Times locations
|
|
·
|
Increase in training and recruiting costs
of $70,000
|
|
·
|
Increase in professional fees and preliminary
site costs of $24,000
|
|
·
|
Net increases in all other expenses of
$60,000
|
Total general and administrative costs
will continue to increase as we build up our infrastructure to support the growth of both of our brands, however we anticipate
over the long term they will decrease as a percentage of revenue as additional restaurants are developed.
Advertising Costs.
Advertising
costs for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019, decreased $22,000 to $1,175,000 (2.2% of total revenue) from $1,197,000 (2.6%
of total revenue) for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018. The decline as a percentage of revenues is primarily due to the growth
of the Bad Daddy’s segment, which has lower advertising costs as a percentage of revenue compared to the Good Times segment.
Bad Daddy’s advertising costs were
$441,000 (1.1% of total revenue) in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 compared to $341,000 (1.1% of total revenue) in the same
prior year period. The $100,000 increase was primarily attributable to the nine new restaurants opened during the final three quarters
of fiscal 2018 and first two fiscal quarters of 2019, as well as a media buy during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 in Colorado
that was not covered by the ad fund contributions. The current and prior year quarters include advertising costs of $7,000 and
$8,000, respectively, of costs associated with franchise advertising contributions.
Good Times advertising costs were $734,000
(5.3% of total revenue) in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 compared to $856,000 (5.6% of total revenue) in the same prior
year period. This $122,000 decline is due primarily to reduced contributions to the advertising fund due to the two restaurants
that closed during fiscal 2018 and lower sales among existing company- and franchisee-owned restaurants. The current and prior
year quarters include advertising costs of $135,000 and $167,000, respectively, of costs associated with franchise advertising
contributions.
Bad Daddy’s advertising costs consist
primarily of contributions made to the advertising materials fund based on a percentage of restaurant sales as well as local store
marketing efforts.
Good Times advertising costs consists primarily
of contributions made to the advertising materials fund and a regional advertising cooperative based on a percentage of restaurant
sales which are used to provide television and radio advertising, social media and on-site and point-of-purchase. Advertising costs
are presented gross, with franchisee contributions to the fund being recognized as a component of franchise revenues. As a percentage
of total revenue, we expect advertising costs to remain relatively stable at approximately 5.5% of total revenue for the Good Times
segment.
Franchise Costs.
Franchise
costs were $23,000 and $21,000 for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 and March 27, 2018, respectively. The costs are primarily
related to the Good Times franchised restaurants.
Asset impairment costs.
There
were no asset impairment costs for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 and asset impairment costs were $72,000 for the two quarters
ended March 27, 2018. The costs are related to a Good Times restaurant that was closed and subleased in April 2018, as described
in Note 9 to the financial statements.
Gain on Restaurant Asset Disposals.
The gain on restaurant asset disposals for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 was $39,000 compared to a gain of $17,000 in the
two quarters ended March 27, 2018. $17,000 of the gain in both the current and prior year periods is related to deferred gains
on previous sale lease-back transactions on two Good Times restaurants. The additional gain of $22,000 in the two quarters ended
March 26, 2019 is related to insurance claim reimbursements where assets were destroyed.
Loss from Operations
.
The
loss from operations was $563,000 in the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 compared to a loss from operations of $368,000 in the
two quarters ended March 27, 2018.
The change in income from operations for
the quarter and year-to-date was due primarily to matters discussed in the "Net Revenues”, "Restaurant Operating
Costs", “Asset Impairment Costs” and "General and Administrative Costs" sections above.
Net Loss
.
The net loss was
$922,000 for the two quarters ended March 26, 2019 compared to a net loss of $542,000 in the two quarters ended March 27, 2018.
The change in net loss for the two quarters
was primarily attributable to the matters discussed in the "Net Revenues", "Restaurant Operating Costs", “Asset
Impairment Costs” and "General and Administrative Costs", as well as an increase in net interest expense $185,000
for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018, compared to the same prior year period.
Income Attributable to Non-Controlling
Interests
.
The non-controlling interest represents the limited partners’ or members’ share of income in the
Good Times and Bad Daddy’s joint venture restaurants.
For the two quarters ended March 26, 2019,
the income attributable to non-controlling interests was $579,000 compared to $472,000 for the two quarters ended March 27, 2018.
$484,000 of the current two quarter’s
income is attributable to the BDI joint-venture restaurants, compared to $318,000 in the same prior year period. This $166,000
increase is due to an increase in joint venture store operating weeks due to two new joint venture restaurants opened during the
final quarter of fiscal 2018, offset by the elimination of non-controlling interest beginning this fiscal quarter associated with
the repurchase of interests associated with the three Raleigh area restaurants. $95,000 of the current quarter’s income is
attributable to the Good Times joint-venture restaurants, compared to $154,000 in the same prior year period. This decline is due
to the reduction in profitability of the seven co-developed Good Times restaurants.
Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, income
taxes and depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA plus
non-cash stock-based compensation expense, preopening expense, non-recurring acquisition costs, GAAP rent in excess of cash rent,
and non-cash disposal of assets. Adjusted EBITDA is intended as a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required
by or presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to management and
investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and operating results. Our management
uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (i) as a factor in evaluating management's performance when determining incentive compensation
and (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies.
We believe that the use of EBITDA and Adjusted
EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the
Company's financial measures with other fast casual restaurants, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.
In addition, you should be aware when evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA that in the future we may incur expenses similar to
those excluded when calculating these measures. Our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that
our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable
to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all companies do not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same
fashion.
Our management does not consider EBITDA
or Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation
of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in
the Company's financial statements. Some of these limitations are:
|
·
|
Adjusted EBITDA
does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
|
|
·
|
Adjusted EBITDA
does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
|
|
·
|
Adjusted EBITDA
does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts;
|
|
·
|
although depreciation
and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future,
and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
|
|
·
|
stock based compensation
expense is and will remain a key element of our overall long-term incentive compensation package, although we exclude it as an
expense when evaluating our ongoing performance for a particular period;
|
|
·
|
Adjusted EBITDA
does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations;
and
|
|
·
|
other companies
in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
|
Because of these limitations, Adjusted
EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We
compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplemental measure.
You should review the reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure
to evaluate our business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and Working Capital
As of March 26, 2019, we had a working
capital deficit of $1,943,000. Our working capital position benefits from the fact that we generally collect cash from sales to
customers the same day, or in the case of credit or debit card transactions, within a few days of the related sale, and we typically
have two to four weeks to pay our vendors. The working capital deficit may increase when new Bad Daddy’s and Good Times restaurants
are opened. We believe that with our ability to access the Cadence Bank credit facility in addition to cash flow generated from
our existing restaurants, that we will have sufficient capital to meet our working capital, long term debt obligations and capital
expenditure needs in fiscal 2019. As of March 26, 2019, we had $732,000 of commitments outstanding related to construction contracts
for one Bad Daddy’s restaurant currently under development and one Good Times restaurant undergoing an extensive remodel.
Financing
The Company maintains a credit agreement
with Cadence Bank (“Cadence”) pursuant to which, as amended, Cadence agreed to loan the Company up to $17,000,000 with
a maturity date of December 31, 2021 (the “Cadence Credit Facility”). On February 21, 2019 the Cadence Credit Facility
was amended, in connection with the RGWP Repurchase, to retroactively attribute EBITDA previously attributed to non-controlling
interests to the Company for purposes of certain financial covenants. As amended by the various amendments, the Cadence Credit
Facility accrues commitment fees on the daily unused balance of the facility at a rate of 0.25%. All borrowings under the Cadence
Credit Facility, as amended, bear interest at a variable rate based upon the Company’s election of (i) 2.5% plus the base
rate, which is the highest of the (a) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Cadence bank publicly-announced prime rate, and (c)
LIBOR plus 1.0%, or (ii) LIBOR, with a 0.250% floor, plus 3.5%. Interest is due at the end of each calendar quarter if the Company
selects to pay interest based on the base rate and at the end of each LIBOR period if it selects to pay interest based on LIBOR.
As of March 26, 2019, the weighted average interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Cadence Credit Facility was 5.9907%.
The Cadence Credit Facility, as amended,
contains certain affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that the Company considers customary for an agreement
of this type, including covenants setting a maximum leverage ratio of 5.35:1, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25:1 and
minimum liquidity of $2,000,000. As of March 26, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Cadence Credit
Facility.
As a result of entering into the Cadence
Credit Facility and the various amendments, the Company paid loan origination costs including professional fees of approximately
$232,000 and is amortizing these costs over the term of the credit agreement.
The obligations under the Cadence Credit
Facility are collateralized by a first-priority lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets.
As of March 26, 2019, the outstanding balance
on borrowings against the facility was $12,300,000. Availability of the Cadence Credit Facility for borrowings is reduced by the
outstanding face value of any letters of credit issued under the facility. As of March 26, 2019, the outstanding face value of
such letters of credit was $157,500.
Capital Expenditures
Planned capital expenditures for the balance
of fiscal 2019 include normal recurring capital expenditures for existing Good Times and Bad Daddy’s restaurants, new Bad
Daddy’s restaurants and reimage and remodel costs for Good Times restaurants.
Assets Held for Sale
None.

Contingencies
We remain contingently liable on various
leases underlying restaurants that were previously sold to franchisees. We have never experienced any losses related to these contingent
lease liabilities, however if a franchisee defaults on the payments under the leases, we would be liable for the lease payments
as the assignor or sublessor of the lease. Currently we have not been notified nor are we aware of any leases in default under
which we are contingently liable, however there can be no assurance that there will not be in the future, which could have a material
effect on our future operating results.
Additionally, in the normal course of business,
there may be various claims in process, matters in litigation, and other contingencies brought against the company by employees,
vendors, customers, franchisees, or other parties. Evaluating these contingencies is a complex process that may involve substantial
judgment on the potential outcome of such matters, and the ultimate outcome of such contingencies may differ from our current analysis.
We review the adequacy of accruals and disclosures related to such contingent liabilities in consultation with legal counsel. While
it is not possible to predict the outcome of these claims with certainty, it is management’s opinion that potential losses
associated with such contingencies would be immaterial to our financial statements.
Impact of Inflation
The total menu price increases at our Good
Times restaurants during fiscal 2018 were approximately 2.8%, and we raised menu prices approximately 1.9% during the first two
quarters of fiscal 2019. The total menu increases taken at our Bad Daddy’s restaurants during fiscal 2018 were approximately
3.8% on average. We raised menu prices during the first two quarters of fiscal 2019 approximately 0.9%. Commodity costs began to
decline during the first half of fiscal 2018 and continued to decline into the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Commodity costs were
relatively stable during the second quarter of fiscal 2019. When combined with anticipated menu price increases, we expect Good
Times’ and Bad Daddy’s’ food and packaging costs to be relatively consistent or slightly elevated compared with
the current quarter, as a percentage of sales during the remainder of fiscal 2019.
Seasonality
Revenues of the Company are subject to
seasonal fluctuations based primarily on weather conditions adversely affecting Colorado restaurant sales in December January,
February and March.
