RED ROBIN GOURMET BURGERS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries (“Red Robin” or the “Company”), primarily develops, operates, and franchises full-service restaurants in North America. As of July 14, 2019, the Company owned and operated 472 restaurants located in 39 states and two Canadian provinces. The Company also had 90 franchised full-service restaurants in 16 states as of July 14, 2019. The Company operates its business as one operating and one reportable segment.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Red Robin and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Red Robin have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements on Form 10-K have been condensed or omitted. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 30, 2018 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures required for audited annual financial statements. For further information, please refer to and read these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2019.
The Company’s quarter that ended July 14, 2019 is referred to as second quarter 2019, or the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019; the first quarter ended April 21, 2019 is referred to as first quarter 2019; and together, the first and second quarters of 2019 are referred to as the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019. The Company’s quarter that ended July 15, 2018 is referred to as second quarter 2018, or the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2018; the first quarter ended April 22, 2018 is referred to as first quarter 2018; and together, the first and second quarters of 2018 are referred to as the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018. The Company’s fiscal year 2019 comprises 52 weeks and will end on December 29, 2019.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts presented in prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. For the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018, the Company reclassified unfavorable lease rights of $1.4 million from Deferred rent to Other non-current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Management believes this presentation better reflects the nature of these liabilities subsequent to the adoption of Topic 842, as defined below.

3. Leases
Adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASU 2016-02
On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” along with related clarifications and improvements using the modified retrospective approach without application to prior periods. This guidance requires the recognition of liabilities for lease obligations and corresponding right-of-use assets on the balance sheet and disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. We applied the practical expedients that do not require us to reassess existing contracts for embedded leases, to separate lease and non-lease components for our population of operating assets, or to reassess lease classification or initial direct costs.
The effect of the changes made to our consolidated December 31, 2018 balance sheet as a result of the adoption of Topic 842 was as follows (in thousands):

Leases
The Company leases land, buildings, and equipment used in its operations under operating and finance leases. Our leases generally have remaining terms of 1-15 years, most of which include options to extend the leases for additional 5-year periods. Generally, the lease term is the minimum of the non-cancelable period of the lease or the lease term inclusive of reasonably certain renewal periods up to a term of 20 years.
We determine if a contract contains a lease at inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not yet paid. Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset and are based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment of operating lease assets. To determine the present value of lease payments not yet paid, we estimate incremental secured borrowing rates corresponding to the maturities of the leases. We estimate this rate based on comparable company and credit analysis, prevailing financial market conditions, comparable company and credit analysis, as well as management judgment.
Our leases typically contain rent escalations over the lease term. We recognize expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, tenant incentives used to fund leasehold improvements are recognized when earned and reduce our right-of-use asset related to the lease. These are amortized through the right-of-use asset as reductions of expense over the lease term.
Some of our leases include rent escalations based on inflation indexes and fair market value adjustments. Certain leases contain contingent rental provisions that include a fixed base rent plus an additional percentage of the restaurant’s sales in excess of stipulated amounts. Operating lease liabilities are calculated using the prevailing index or rate at lease commencement. Subsequent escalations in the index or rate and contingent rental payments are recognized as variable lease expenses. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

We have elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all applicable classes of underlying assets. Short-term disclosures include only those leases with a term greater than one month and 12 months or less, and expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less, that do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that we are reasonably certain to exercise, are not recorded on the balance sheet.

5. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated based upon the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if holders of options exercised their options into common stock.
The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the effect of outstanding stock options. Basic weighted average shares outstanding is reconciled to diluted weighted average shares outstanding as follows (in thousands):

In second quarter 2019, the Company determined 29 Company-owned restaurants were impaired and recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $14.1 million. In second quarter 2018, the Company determined eight Company-owned restaurants were impaired and recognized a non-cash impairment charge of $9.6 million. The Company recognized the impairment charges resulting from the continuing and projected future results of these restaurants, primarily through projected cash flows.
7. Borrowings
Long-term debt as of July 14, 2019 and December 30, 2018 was $181.4 million and $193.4 million.
On June 30, 2016, the Company entered into a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), which provides for a $400 million revolving line of credit with a sublimit for the issuance of up to $25 million in letters of credit and swingline loans up to $15 million. On August 19, 2019, the Company entered into a second amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Facility. The Amendment increases the lease adjusted leverage ratio to 5.0x through December 29, 2019 before returning to 4.75x thereafter. In addition, the Amendment revises the definition of permitted acquisitions under the Credit Facility to correspond with the change to the lease adjusted leverage ratio and clarifies the classification of existing capital and operating leases. A copy of the Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The Company’s lease adjusted leverage ratio was 4.30x as of July 14, 2019. The lease adjusted leverage ratio is defined in Section 1.1 of the Company’s credit facility, which is filed as Exhibit 10.32 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 21, 2017.
The Credit Facility matures on June 30, 2021. As of July 14, 2019, the Company had outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility of $180.5 million, in addition to amounts issued under letters of credit of $7.4 million, which reduced the amount available under the facility but were not recorded as debt. As of December 30, 2018, the Company had outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility of $192.5 million, in addition to amounts issued under letters of credit of $7.8 million.
Loan origination costs associated with the Credit Facility are included as deferred costs in Other assets, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Unamortized debt issuance costs were $1.3 million and $1.7 million as of July 14, 2019 and December 30, 2018.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on the consolidated financial statements on a nonrecurring basis include items such as property, plant and equipment, goodwill, and other intangible assets. These assets are measured at fair value if determined to be impaired.
As of July 14, 2019 and December 30, 2018, the Company measured non-financial assets for impairment using continuing and projected future cash flows, as discussed in Note 6, Other Charges, which were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represented a level 3 fair value measurement.
Disclosures of Fair Value of Other Assets and Liabilities
The Company’s liabilities under its Credit Facility and finance leases are carried at historical cost in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Both the Credit Facility and the Company’s finance lease obligations are measured using level 2 inputs. The carrying value of the Credit Facility approximates fair value as the interest rate on this instrument approximates current market rates. For disclosure purposes, the Company estimated the fair value of the finance lease obligations using discounted cash flow analysis based on market rates obtained from independent third parties for similar types of debt.
The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s finance lease obligations as of July 14, 2019 and December 30, 2018 (in thousands):

9. Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, there are various claims in process, matters in litigation, and other contingencies. These include employment-related claims and claims alleging illness, injury, or other food quality, health, or operational issues. Evaluating contingencies related to litigation is a complex process involving subjective judgment on the potential outcome of future events, and the ultimate resolution of litigated claims may differ from our current analysis. We review the adequacy of accruals and disclosures pertaining to litigation matters each quarter in consultation with legal counsel, and we assess the probability and range of possible losses associated with contingencies for potential accrual in the consolidated financial statements. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of these claims with certainty, management is of the opinion that adequate provision for potential losses associated with these matters has been made in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
During the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018, the Company recorded $4.0 million of litigation contingencies for employment-related claims.

ITEM 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations provides a narrative of our financial performance and condition that should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. All comparisons under this heading between 2019 and 2018 refer to the twelve and twenty-eight week periods ending July 14, 2019 and July 15, 2018, unless otherwise indicated.
Overview
Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries (“Red Robin,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), primarily develops, operates, and franchises full-service restaurants with 562 locations in North America. As of July 14, 2019, the Company operated 472 Company-owned restaurants located in 39 states and two Canadian provinces. The Company also had 90 franchised full-service restaurants in 16 states as of July 14, 2019. The Company operates its business as one operating and one reportable segment.
The following summarizes the operational and financial highlights during the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019:
Financial performance.
Restaurant revenue decreased $8.0 million, or 2.6%, to $302.4 million for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019, as compared to the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2018, due to a $4.4 million, or 1.5%, decrease in comparable restaurant revenue, and a $4.2 million decrease from closed restaurants, partially offset by a $0.6 million increase in revenue from late 2018 new restaurant openings. Restaurant revenue decreased $22.2 million, or 3.1%, to $702.9 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019, as compared to the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018, due to a $16.8 million, or 2.4%, decrease in comparable restaurant revenue, a $7.1 million decrease from closed restaurants, and a $0.9 million unfavorable foreign currency exchange impact partially offset by a $2.6 million increase in revenue from late 2018 new restaurant openings.
Restaurant operating costs, as a percentage of restaurant revenue, increased 110 basis points to 81.8% for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019, as compared to 80.7% for the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2018. For the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019, restaurant operating costs, as a percentage of restaurant revenue increased 140 basis points to 81.7%, as compared to 80.3% for the same period in 2018. The increase was due to higher labor and other operating costs, offset by a decrease in food and beverage costs as a percentage of restaurant revenue.
Net income was $1.0 million for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019 compared to a net loss of $1.9 million for the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2018. Diluted earnings per share were $0.08 for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019, as compared to diluted loss per share of $0.14 for the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2018. Excluding charges of $0.80 for impairment expenses, $0.07 for board and shareholder matter costs, $0.05 for restaurant closure costs, $0.02 for executive transition and severance, and $0.01 for executive retention, adjusted earnings per diluted share for the second quarter ended July 14, 2019 were $1.03. Excluding charges of $0.54 for asset impairment, $0.03 for spiral menu disposal, and $0.03 for reorganization costs, adjusted earnings per diluted share for the second quarter ended July 15, 2018 were $0.46. Net income was $1.6 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019 compared to net income of $2.5 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018. Diluted earnings per share were $0.12 for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019, as compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.19 for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018. Excluding the impact of $0.80 per diluted share for impairment expenses, $0.13 for executive transition and severance, $0.08 for restaurant closure costs, $0.07 for board and shareholder matter costs, and $0.02 for executive retention, net income per diluted share for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019 was $1.22. Excluding the impact of $0.54 per diluted share for asset impairment, $0.23 per diluted share for litigation contingencies, $0.16 per diluted share for reorganization costs, and $0.03 per diluted share for the disposal of spiral menus, net income per diluted share for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018 was $1.15.

Calculated using constant currency rates. Using historical currency rates, the average weekly sales per unit for the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018 for Company-owned restaurants was $53,268 and $53,536, respectively. The Company calculates non-GAAP constant currency average weekly sales per unit by translating prior year local currency average weekly sales per unit to U.S. dollars based on current quarter average exchange rates. The Company considers non-GAAP constant currency average weekly sales per unit to be a useful metric to investors and management as they facilitate a more useful comparison of current performance to historical performance.
Restaurant revenue for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019, which comprises primarily food and beverage sales, decreased $8.0 million, or 2.6%, as compared to second quarter 2018. The decrease was due to a $4.4 million, or 1.5%, decrease in comparable restaurant revenue and a $4.2 million decrease from closed restaurants, partially offset by a $0.6 million increase in revenue from late 2018 new restaurant openings. The comparable restaurant revenue decrease was driven by a 6.4% decrease in guest counts offset by a 4.9% increase in average guest check. The increase in average guest check resulted from a 2.6% increase in pricing and a 2.3% increase in menu mix. The increase in menu mix was primarily driven by our current menu and promotional strategy, resulting in lower Tavern burger sales and higher Finest burger and entrée sales.
Restaurant revenue for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019, decreased $22.2 million or 3.1%, as compared to the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018. The decrease was due to a $16.8 million, or 2.4%, decrease in comparable restaurant revenue, a $7.1 million decrease from closed restaurants, and a $0.9 million unfavorable foreign currency exchange impact partially offset by $2.6 million increase in revenue from late 2018 new restaurant openings. The comparable restaurant revenue decrease was driven by a 5.9% decrease in guest counts offset by a 3.5% increase in average guest check. The increase in average guest check resulted from a 2.2% increase in pricing and a 1.3% increase in menu mix. The increase in menu mix was primarily driven by our current menu and promotional strategy, resulting in lower Tavern burger sales and higher Finest burger and entrée sales.
We are focusing on opportunities to improve our service execution, which we believe will drive increased guest counts and comparable restaurant revenue.
Average weekly sales volumes represent the total restaurant revenue for all Company-owned Red Robin restaurants for each time period presented, divided by the number of operating weeks in the period. Comparable restaurant revenues include those restaurants that are in the comparable base at the end of each period presented. New restaurants are restaurants that are open but not included in the comparable category because they have not operated for five full quarters. Fluctuations in average weekly net sales volumes for Company-owned restaurants reflect the effect of comparable restaurant revenue changes as well as the performance of new and acquired restaurants during the period and the average square footage of our restaurants.
Franchise and other revenue increased $0.6 million for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019 compared to the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2018 and increased $3.1 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019 compared to the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018, primarily due to an increase in gift card breakage. Our franchisees reported a comparable restaurant revenue decrease of 2.8% for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019 compared to the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2018 and a decrease of 2.2% for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019 compared to the twenty eight weeks ended July 15, 2018.

Selling, general, and administrative costs in the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019 decreased $0.4 million, or 1.1%, as compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower media spend, partially offset by increases in professional and legal fees. For the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019, selling, general, and administrative costs increased $1.4 million, or 1.7%, as compared to the same period in 2018. The increase was primarily related to an increase in professional services and higher wages.

Pre-opening costs, which are expensed as incurred, comprise the costs of labor, hiring, and training the initial work force for our new restaurants and new initiatives; occupancy costs incurred prior to opening; travel expenses for our training teams; the cost of food and beverages used in training; licenses and marketing; supply costs; and other direct costs related to the opening of new restaurants. Our pre-opening costs fluctuate from period to period, depending upon, but not limited to, the number of restaurant openings, the size of the restaurants being opened, and the location of the restaurants. Pre-opening costs for any given quarter will typically include expenses associated with restaurants opened during the quarter as well as expenses related to restaurants opening in subsequent quarters.
We incurred no pre-opening costs during the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019. Pre-opening costs decreased $1.4 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease was primarily due to fewer openings during the twenty-eight week period ended July 14, 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018.
Interest Expense, Net and Other
Interest expense, net and other was $2.2 million for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 9.7%, from the same period in 2018. Interest expense, net and other was $5.4 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 6.9%, from the same period in 2018. The decrease was primarily related to recognizing a gain on the Company’s deferred compensation plan assets compared to a loss the same period a year ago. Our weighted average interest rate was 5.2% and 5.0% for the twelve week and twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019, as compared to 4.5% and 4.3% for the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2018.

Provision for Income Taxes
The effective tax benefit for the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019 was 106.5%, compared to 71.6% benefit for the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2018. The effective tax benefit for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019 and July 15, 2018 was 110.9% and 183.9%. The change in both the twelve and twenty-eight week effective tax benefits are primarily due to the decrease in income compared to the same period a year ago.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents increased 7.6 million to $26.2 million at July 14, 2019, from $18.6 million at the beginning of the fiscal year. We expect to continue to reinvest available cash flows from operations to pay down debt, maintain existing restaurants and infrastructure, execute our long-term strategic initiatives, and repurchase our common stock.

Operating Cash Flows
Net cash flows provided by operating activities decreased $35.3 million to $41.7 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019. The changes in net cash provided by operating activities are primarily attributable to a $14.4 million decrease in profit from operations for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, as well as changes in working capital as presented in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
Investing Cash Flows
Net cash flows used in investing activities decreased $6.2 million to $21.0 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019, as compared to $27.2 million for the same period in 2018. The decrease is primarily due to decreased investment in new restaurant openings.

Financing Cash Flows
Cash used in financing activities decreased $31.4 million to $13.2 million for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018. The decrease primarily resulted from a $32.9 million decrease in net repayments made on long-term debt, offset by $1.5 million of cash used to repurchase the Company’s common stock.
Credit Facility
On June 30, 2016, the Company entered into a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”), which provides for a $400 million revolving line of credit with a sublimit for the issuance of up to $25 million in letters of credit and swingline loans up to $15 million. On August 19, 2019, the Company entered into a second amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Facility.

21

Table of Contents

The Amendment increases the lease adjusted leverage ratio to 5.0x through December 29, 2019 before returning to 4.75x thereafter. In addition, the Amendment revises the definition of permitted acquisitions under the Credit Facility to correspond with the change to the lease adjusted leverage ratio and clarifies the classification of existing capital and operating leases. A copy of the Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
The Company’s lease adjusted leverage ratio was 4.30x as of July 14, 2019. The lease adjusted leverage ratio is defined in Section 1.1 of the Company’s credit facility, which is filed as Exhibit 10.32 to the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 21, 2017.
The Credit Facility matures on June 30, 2021. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by first priority liens and security interests in substantially all of the Company’s assets, including the capital stock of certain Company subsidiaries. Borrowings are available for financing activities including restaurant construction costs, working capital, and general corporate purposes, including, among other uses, to refinance certain indebtedness, permitted acquisitions, and redemption of capital stock. We do not believe any of our lenders will be unable to fulfill their lending commitments under our Credit Facility. Loan origination costs associated with the Credit Facility are included as deferred costs in Other assets, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of July 14, 2019, the Company had outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility of $180.5 million, in addition to amounts issued under letters of credit of $7.4 million, which reduce the amount available under the Credit Facility but are not recorded as debt. As of July 14, 2019, we had unused borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility of approximately $237.1 million.
Covenants.  We are subject to a number of customary covenants under our Credit Facility, including limitations on additional borrowings, acquisitions, stock repurchases, sales of assets, and dividend payments. As of July 14, 2019, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.
Debt Outstanding.  Total debt outstanding decreased $12.0 million to $181.4 million at July 14, 2019, from $193.4 million at December 30, 2018, due to net repayments of $12.0 million on the Credit Facility during the twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019.
Working Capital. We typically maintain current liabilities in excess of our current assets which results in a working capital deficit. We are able to operate with a working capital deficit because restaurant sales are primarily conducted on a cash or credit card basis. Rapid turnover of inventory results in limited investment in inventories, and cash from sales is usually received before related payables for food, supplies, and payroll become due. In addition, receipts from the sale of gift cards are received well in advance of related redemptions. Rather than maintain higher cash balances that would result from this pattern of operating cash flows, we typically utilize operating cash flows in excess of those required for currently-maturing liabilities to pay for capital expenditures, debt repayment, or to repurchase stock. When necessary, we utilize our Credit Facility to satisfy short-term liquidity requirements. We believe our future cash flows generated from restaurant operations combined with our remaining borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to satisfy any working capital deficits and our planned capital expenditures.
Share Repurchase. On August 9, 2018, the Company’s board of directors authorized the Company’s current share repurchase program of up to a total of $75 million of the Company’s common stock. The share repurchase authorization was effective as of August 9, 2018, and will terminate upon completing repurchases of $75 million of common stock unless otherwise terminated by the board. Pursuant to the repurchase program, purchases may be made from time to time at the Company’s discretion and the Company is not obligated to acquire any particular amount of common stock.
Inflation
The primary inflationary factors affecting our operations are food, labor costs, energy costs, and materials used in the construction of new restaurants. A large number of our restaurant personnel are paid at rates based on the applicable minimum wage, and increases in the minimum wage rates have directly affected our labor costs in recent years. Many of our leases require us to pay taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance, and utilities, all of which are generally subject to inflationary increases. We believe labor cost inflation had a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations during the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 14, 2019. Uncertainties related to fluctuations in costs, including energy costs, commodity prices, annual indexed or potential minimum wage increases, and construction materials make it difficult to predict what impact, if any, inflation may continue to have on our business, but it is anticipated inflation will have a negative impact on labor costs for the remainder of 2019.
Seasonality
Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations. Historically, sales in most of our restaurants have been higher during the summer months and winter holiday season and lower during the fall season. As a result, our quarterly and annual operating results and comparable restaurant revenue may fluctuate significantly as a result of seasonality. Accordingly, results for any one

quarter or year are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other quarter or for any year, and comparable restaurant sales for any particular future period may decrease.
Contractual Obligations
There were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to our contractual obligations since the filing of Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Critical accounting policies and estimates are those we believe are both significant and that require us to make difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often because we need to estimate the effect of inherently uncertain matters. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experiences and various other factors we believe to be appropriate under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates, including our estimates of future restaurant level cash flows, which are subject to the current economic environment, and we might obtain different results if we use different assumptions or conditions. We had no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates which were disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain information and statements contained in this report are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “PSLRA”) codified at Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. This statement is included for purposes of complying with the safe harbor provisions of the PSLRA. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, or performance and underlying assumptions and other statements which are other than statements of historical facts. These statements may be identified, without limitation, by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “estimate,” “could,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions. Certain forward-looking statements are included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, principally in the sections captioned “Financial Statements” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Forward-looking statements in this report include, among other things: our financial performance, strategic initiatives, marketing strategy and promotions; expected uses for available cash flow; capital investments; beliefs about the ability of our lenders to fulfill their lending commitments under our Credit Facility and about the sufficiency of future cash flows to satisfy any working capital deficit and planned capital expenditures; the anticipated effects of inflation on labor and commodity costs; and the effect of the adoption of new accounting standards on our financial and accounting systems.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those we express in these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: the effectiveness of our business strategy and improvement initiatives, including the effectiveness of our affordability, service improvement, technology, and off-premise initiatives to drive traffic and sales; the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns; our ability to effectively use and monitor social media; uncertainty regarding general economic and industry conditions; concentration of restaurants in certain markets and lack of market awareness in new markets; changes in consumer disposable income, consumer spending trends and habits; the effectiveness of our information technology and new technology systems, including cyber security with respect to those systems; regional mall and lifestyle center traffic trends or other trends affecting traffic at our restaurants; increased competition and discounting in the casual-dining restaurant market; costs and availability of food and beverage inventory; changes in commodity prices, particularly ground beef; changes in energy and labor costs, including due to changes in health care and market wage levels; the success of our refranchising efforts; changes in federal, state, or local laws and regulations affecting the operation of our restaurants, including but not limited to, minimum wages, consumer health and safety, health insurance coverage, nutritional disclosures, and employment eligibility-related documentation requirements; limitations on our ability to execute stock repurchases at all or at the times or in the amounts we currently anticipate due to lack of available share or acceptable stock price levels or other market or Company-specific conditions, or to otherwise achieve anticipated benefits of a share repurchase program; our ability to attract and retain qualified managers and Team Members; the adequacy of cash flows or available access to capital or debit resources under our Credit Facility or otherwise to fund operations and growth opportunities; costs and other effects of legal claims by team members, franchisees, customers, vendors, stockholders, including relating to fluctuations in our stock price, and others, including settlement of those claims or negative publicity regarding food safety or cyber security; the impact of our recent

adoption of a shareholder rights plan; weather conditions and related events in regions where our restaurants are operated; changes in accounting standards policies and practices or related interpretations by auditors or regulatory entities; and other risk factors described from time to time in our SEC reports, including the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2019.
Although we believe the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such expectations may prove to be materially incorrect due to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date on which it is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances.
ITEM 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There has been no material change in the interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange risk, or commodity price risk since the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018.
We continue to monitor our interest rate risk on an ongoing basis and may use interest rate swaps or similar instruments in the future to manage our exposure to interest rate changes related to our borrowings as the Company deems appropriate. As of July 14, 2019, we had $180.5 million of borrowings subject to variable interest rates. A 1.0% change in the effective interest rate applied to these loans would have resulted in pre-tax interest expense fluctuation of $1.8 million on an annualized basis.
The Company’s restaurant menus are highly dependent upon a few select commodities, including ground beef, poultry, and potatoes. We may or may not have the ability to increase menu prices, or vary menu items, in response to food commodity price increases. A 1.0% increase in food costs would negatively impact cost of sales by approximately $3.1 million on an annualized basis.

ITEM 4.    Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the management of the Company (“Management”), including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. The Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that, based upon the evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
During the twelve weeks ended July 14, 2019, the Company did not have any sales of securities in transactions that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that have not been reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K. On August 9, 2018, the Company’s board of directors authorized the Company’s current share repurchase program of up to a total of $75 million of the Company’s common stock. The share repurchase authorization became effective on August 9, 2018 and will terminate upon completing repurchases of $75 million of common stock unless otherwise terminated by the board. Purchases under the repurchase program may be made in open market or privately negotiated transactions and may include transactions pursuant to a repurchase plan administered in accordance with Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Purchases may be made from time to time at the Company’s discretion and the timing and amount of any share repurchases will be determined based on share price, market conditions, legal requirements, and other factors. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and the Company may suspend or discontinue the repurchase program at any time. The table below provides a summary of the Company’s purchases of its own common stock during the second quarter of 2019.
