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 fiscal year ended September 26, 2023.
Highlights of the Company’s financial results include:
Ryan M. Zink, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are thrilled about the continued same store sales increases that we are seeing at Good Times. We are on the path to modernizing and re-energizing this 36-year-old regional brand and we believe the financial results this year, especially considering the unusual level of input cost inflation, demonstrate the impact that our investments in technology and in our facilities is making on the business.”
“Unfortunately, Bad Daddy’s did not perform to our expectations during the fourth quarter, and we know that this quarter’s results are not consistent with what the brand is capable of. We have never compromised on our food, and during this year we have only improved the quality and relevance of our product selection. We have missed the mark in the front-of-house, including at the bar, and we have identified specific priorities to address these opportunities and to improve the brand’s operational and financial performance.” Zink continued.
Mr. Zink concluded, “We made significant investments this year in both brands, including our purchase of the interests in certain Bad Daddy’s restaurants that were held by unaffiliated partners; the opening of a new Bad Daddy’s in Madison, Alabama; and our purchase of two Good Times restaurants from franchisees. I am optimistic about the continued strength of both of our brands and in the anticipated sales turnaround at Bad Daddy’s.”
Cash and Liquidity
As of September 26, 2023, the Company had outstanding borrowings of approximately $0.8 million under its credit facility, approximately $4.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, and total liquidity of approximately $11.4 million including cash and cash equivalents and amounts available for borrowing under its credit facility.
Share Repurchase Activity
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 the Company repurchased 176,140 shares of common stock at an average price of $3.11 under its $5 million share repurchase program. During the full 2023 fiscal year, the Company repurchased 838,048 shares of common stock under its repurchase program. Repurchase activity is conditioned on compliance with certain financial covenants under the Company’s credit facility. Under the repurchase program, purchases may be made at the Company’s discretion and the Company is not obligated to purchase any certain amount of common stock.
Unit Development and Restaurant Acquisitions
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company opened a new Bad Daddy’s restaurant in Madison, Alabama, a suburb of Huntsville, Alabama. Additionally, during the fourth fiscal quarter, the Company repurchased a Good Times restaurant in Lafayette, Colorado from a franchisee, and purchased the land, building, and all restaurant assets associated with a Good Times restaurant in Greenwood Village, Colorado. The Company continues to operate both restaurants and expects to hold the real estate purchased in connection with the Greenwood Village location.

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 include 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, like 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 (loss) 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 2023 and fiscal 2022, expressed as a percentage of total revenues, except for the components of restaurant operating costs, which are expressed as a percentage of restaurant revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of operating performance that does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net (loss) 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 (loss) income 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.
