Good Times Restaurants Reports Results for the Fourth Quarter and Year Ended September 28, 2021

Good Times Restaurants Inc. (Nasdaq: GTIM), operator of Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar and Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard, today reported financial results for the fiscal fourth quarter and year ended September 28, 2021.

Key highlights of the Company’s financial results include:

  • Total Revenues increased 12.8% to $124.0 million for the year compared to fiscal 2020
  • Total Restaurant Sales increased 17.6% to $33.5 million for the quarter compared to the same prior-year quarter and 12.8% to $123.1 million for the year
  • Total Restaurant Sales for Bad Daddy’s restaurants increased $5.2 million to $24.5 million for the quarter compared to the same prior-year quarter and 16.1% to $88.6 million for the year
  • Same Store Sales1 for company-owned Bad Daddy’s restaurants increased 22.8% for the quarter and 18.2% for the fiscal year
  • Total Restaurant Sales for Good Times restaurants were $8.8 million for the quarter and $34.5 million for the year
  • Same Store Sales for company-owned Good Times restaurants decreased 0.2% for the quarter and increased 10.5% for the fiscal year
  • The Company opened one traditional Bad Daddy’s restaurant and one non-traditional location (Bad Daddy’s at Tivoli) during the quarter
  • Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders was $1.3 million for the quarter
  • Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders was $16.8 million for the year
  • Adjusted EBITDA2 (a non-GAAP measure) for the quarter was $2.5 million and $9.6 million for the year
  • The Company ended the quarter with $8.9 million in cash and no borrowings outstanding under its senior credit facility

Ryan M. Zink, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We concluded our fiscal year with record sales at both of our brands and for the Company as a whole. This sales strength, particularly at Bad Daddy’s, has continued into the first quarter of fiscal 2022. I am extremely proud of our team for successfully battling through the varied challenges that our industry has faced in the wake of the pandemic. In addition to generating record sales, through strong operations, we have also achieved record profitability in fiscal 2021.“

Mr. Zink continued, “We expect 2022 to be equally challenging. The industry faces increasing inflationary pressure, supply chain constraints, and an extremely tight staffing market. As consistent in the industry, we have raised prices and expect to increase prices in the future, however, we will be disciplined in doing so, expecting some margin compression as menu price increases occur at a slower rate than our input prices are increasing. We remain committed to the long-term success of both of our brands and all decisions we make will support that commitment. I have continued confidence in our strong team that has proven itself adaptable and capable of navigating an unpredictable operating environment.”

Fiscal 2022 Outlook:

In light of the ongoing uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, impacts of supply chain constraints and the current inflationary environment, the Company is not, at this point, providing a financial forecast for fiscal 2022.

Although all Bad Daddy’s dining rooms are currently open and capacity restrictions have been lifted in most locations, the possibility remains that temporary closures and/or capacity restrictions might be put in place with limited notice. Should such restrictions be mandated or should customer behaviors be altered by changing public health guidance or perceptions related to COVID-19, the Company could adjust financial performance expectations.

Conference Call: Management will host a conference call to discuss its 2021 fourth quarter and fiscal year end financial results on Thursday, December 16, 2021 at 3:00 p.m. MT/5:00 p.m. ET. Hosting the call will be Ryan M. Zink, its President and Chief Executive Officer.

The conference call can be accessed live over the phone by dialing 844-200-6205 and entering Participant access code 827058. The conference call will also be webcast live from the Company's corporate website www.goodtimesburgers.com. An archive of the webcast will be available at the same location on the corporate website shortly after the call has concluded.

Certain percentage amounts in the table above do not total due to rounding as well as the fact that restaurant operating costs are expressed as a percentage of restaurant revenues (as opposed to total revenues).

The Company believes that restaurant-level operating profit is an important measure for management and investors because it is widely regarded in the restaurant industry as a useful metric by which to evaluate restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance. The Company defines restaurant-level operating profit to be restaurant revenues minus restaurant-level operating costs, excluding restaurant closures and impairment costs. The measure includes restaurant-level occupancy costs, which includes fixed rents, percentage rents, common area maintenance charges, real estate and personal property taxes, general liability insurance and other property costs, but excludes depreciation. The measure excludes depreciation and amortization expense, substantially all of which is related to restaurant level assets, because such expenses represent historical sunk costs which do not reflect current cash outlay for the restaurants. The measure also excludes selling, general and administrative costs, and therefore excludes occupancy costs associated with selling, general and administrative functions, and pre-opening costs. The Company excludes restaurant closure costs as they do not represent a component of the efficiency of continuing operations. Restaurant impairment costs are excluded, because similar to depreciation and amortization, they represent a non-cash charge for the Company’s investment in its restaurants and not a component of the efficiency of restaurant operations. Restaurant-level operating profit is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative, to income from operations or net income as indicators of financial performance. Restaurant-level operating profit as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The tables above set forth certain unaudited information for the current and prior year fiscal quarters and year-to-date periods for fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, expressed as a percentage of total revenues, except for the components of restaurant operating costs, which are expressed as a percentage of restaurant revenues.

_____________________

1 Depreciation and amortization, and asset impairment charge have been reduced by any amounts attributable to non-controlling interests.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of operating performance that does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations, as determined by GAAP, and our calculation thereof may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. This measure is presented because we believe that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by including this non-GAAP financial measure as a reasonable basis for evaluating our ongoing results of operations.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization and further adjustments to reflect the additions and eliminations presented in the table above.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented because: (i) we believe it is a useful measure for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization expenses and asset disposals, closure costs and restaurant impairments, and (ii) we use adjusted EBITDA internally as a benchmark for certain of our cash incentive plans and to evaluate our operating performance or compare our performance to that of our competitors. The use of adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure permits a comparative assessment of our operating performance relative to our performance based on our GAAP results, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. Companies within our industry exhibit significant variations with respect to capital structures and cost of capital (which affect interest expense and income tax rates) and differences in book depreciation of property, plant and equipment (which affect relative depreciation expense), including significant differences in the depreciable lives of similar assets among various companies. Our management believes that adjusted EBITDA facilitates company-to-company comparisons within our industry by eliminating some of these foregoing variations. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies, and our presentation of adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by excluded or unusual items.
