Item 2.03

Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
|
As previously disclosed, Texas Roadhouse,
Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries are parties to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated August 7, 2017 (the
“Amended Credit Agreement”). The Amended Credit Agreement is a revolving credit agreement under which we can borrow
up to $200.0 million with the option to increase the credit facility by an additional $200.0 million (subject to certain limitations
set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement). The material terms of the Amended Credit Agreement are described under “Note
5 – Long-term Debt” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for Texas Roadhouse, Inc. and its subsidiaries,
which Note 5 is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on February 28, 2020, and which description is incorporated herein by reference.
As of December 31, 2019, we had $191.8 million
of availability under the Amended Credit Agreement, net of $8.2 million of outstanding letters of credit.
On March 9, 2020 and as a
precautionary measure, we provided notice to the lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement of our desire to borrow $50.0
million available under the credit facility, which amounts were deposited with us on March 12, 2020. Additionally, on March
16, 2020, we provided an additional notice to the lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement of our desire to borrow $140.0
million available under the credit facility so that a total of $198.2 million will be outstanding (including $8.2 million of
outstanding letters of credit) following receipt of such additional $140.0 million draw down. The current interest for such
borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement is a blended rate of approximately 1.64%. With the draw down, and existing cash,
we will have over $300 million in cash on hand with an option to increase the credit facility by an additional $200 million.
As of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, we remain in compliance with all financial covenants set
forth in the Amended Credit Agreement.
In light of the current uncertainty in the
global markets resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak and notwithstanding our healthy cash balance previously described in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, we increased our borrowing as a precautionary measure in order to
bolster our cash position and enhance financial flexibility. The proceeds from these borrowings are being held on our balance sheet
and may in the future be used for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, working capital, capital expenditures
in the ordinary course of business, or other lawful corporate purposes, all in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions
of the Amended Credit Agreement.
Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure

Due
to the current unprecedented global market and economic conditions in the United States and around the world, we are
withdrawing financial guidance for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2020. We plan to provide an update on the business on
our First Quarter earnings call and will provide updated financial guidance to the extent we can reasonably estimate the
impact of the outbreak and changing market conditions. For additional information, see the Press Release issued on March 19,
2020, and furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
