Good Times Restaurants Reports Third Quarter Same Store Sales

Good Times Restaurants Inc. (Nasdaq: GTIM), operator of Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar and Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard, today announced that year-over-year same store sales for its Good Times brand increased 2.9% for its third fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2021. Year-over-year same store sales at its Bad Daddy’s brand increased 61.4% during the quarter compared to its fiscal 2020 third quarter, driven by reductions in COVID-19-related restrictions and the rollover of prior-year impacts of the pandemic. Compared to 2019, sales during the third quarter of 2021 increased by 14.3% at Good Times and by 0.7% at Bad Daddy’s restaurants, among restaurants that were open for the full third quarter in both years. Same store sales and average weekly sales at Bad Daddy’s and Good Times for each month of the quarter are as follows:

Ryan Zink, President and CEO, said, “We have seen an increased preference for the full-service restaurant experience as vaccines have become more widely available and customers have become more comfortable in group settings with reduced COVID-19-related restrictions. Due to hourly staffing constraints that are common in the industry today, both of our concepts are still operating at reduced hours, with most of our restaurants closing one hour earlier, compared to 2019. We continue to prioritize higher-levels of customer service and improved working hours for our employees over maximizing operating hours. We are pleased with the sales results from both brands, as sales have returned to 2019 levels at Bad Daddy’s and at Good Times are seeing only marginal year-over-year sales declines as we lap dining room restrictions from last year. Additionally, during the quarter we opened our 40th Bad Daddy’s restaurant in the greater Atlanta market. The restaurant opened as the leading sales restaurant for us in this market and is achieving our target for new restaurant volumes.”
