GOOD TIMES RESTAURANTS REPORTS RESULTS FOR
THE FISCAL 2025 SECOND QUARTER ENDED APRIL 1, 2025

(DENVER, CO) Good Times Restaurants Inc. (Nasdaq: GTIM), operator of the Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar and Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard restaurant brands, today reported financial results for the fiscal 2025 second quarter.

Key highlights of the Company’s financial results include:

Ryan M. Zink, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “The second fiscal quarter was disappointing, though sales improved sequentially throughout the quarter; however, during the fiscal month of March same store sales declined approximately 2.2% for our Bad Daddy’s brand and declined approximately 0.4% for our Good Times brand.

Mr. Zink continued, “I am impressed with our ability to control costs at our Bad Daddy’s brand as our 13.6% Restaurant Level Operating Profit 2 margin matched the prior year despite the deleveraging pressure of lower average unit volumes. On Monday, we reintroduced our Birria Burger, an item we pioneered a year ago, which was a perfect fit to launch on Cinco de Mayo and to kick off National Burger Month. This burger, as well as our new Elote Street Corn Dip and Churro Shake will continue through the middle of August. Additionally, during this same period, we are featuring our signature Bad Ass Margarita at a promotional price of eight dollars. In April, we introduced the Smash n’ Stack burger, the newest addition to our lineup of smashed-patty burgers, a value-oriented bacon double cheeseburger at a price of $11.95, a substantial value for a half-pound burger. Nearly five years ago, we moved to an a la carte model, separating sides from the prices of our burgers and sandwiches; however, we have recently conducted experiments to restructure the menu around a side-included pricing model with strong initial results and expect to roll this model to all stores prior to the end of the June quarter. Finally, during the quarter, we tested connected TV and streaming video advertising in our northern Colorado market and in the far northern suburbs of Atlanta, with promising results. We are expanding this advertising during the remainder of the June quarter as we continue to evaluate the effectiveness of this previously untried advertising medium for the Bad Daddy’s brand.”

Mr. Zink continued, “Good Times’ performance during the quarter experienced both sales declines and margin compression, most notably due to the continued discounting by our competitors. To improve our current position, we are re-evaluating our media mix, as radio has proven less effective than it has in the past and we will be experimenting with the same streaming video and connected TV media that have initially driven incremental sales at Bad Daddy’s. Further, Craig Soto, our newly appointed Good Times Director of Operations, has been charged with improving both restaurant-level execution, delivering a higher quality and more consistent product and guest experience; and improving restaurant-level profitability. In partnership with our culinary leader, Mr. Soto has initiated a review of our entire menu, examining modern relevance, operations effectiveness, and profitability of each menu category and menu item. We are making great progress in our remodel program, with two-thirds of the system remodeled. We are continuing to remodel our restaurants during the balance of this year and have two restaurants that require more significant work and expect those to be remodeled during fiscal 2026.”

1 Same store sales are a metric used in evaluating the performance of established restaurants and is a commonly used metric in the restaurant industry. Same store sales for our brands are calculated using all units open for at least 18 full fiscal months and use the comparable operating weeks from the prior year to the current year quarter’s operating weeks.

2 For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant Level Operating Profit to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP and a discussion of why the Company considers them useful, see the financial information schedules accompanying this release.

“Beyond the restaurant-level, there are other adjustments we are making to improve effectiveness, efficiency, and profitability within the Company. Our current purchasing leader will be retiring at the end of the June quarter, and we have filled that role internally with a product and operations expert who is eager and well prepared to handle the role. Further, we have reduced the number of multi-unit leaders at Bad Daddy’s and are examining opportunities to do so at Good Times, while at the same time increasing the strength of leadership and supervision provided at the immediate above-restaurant level. From a capital deployment perspective, we have temporarily paused repurchases under our share repurchase program and are redirecting cash flow into cash accumulation and repayment of debt to maintain balance sheet strength through greater liquidity.” Zink concluded.

Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP Results to Non-GAAP Measurements

Reconciliation of (Loss) Income from Operations to Non-GAAP Restaurant-Level Operating Profit

(In thousands)

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 preopening 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 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 for fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, expressed as a percentage of total revenues, except for the components of restaurant operating costs, which are expressed as a percentage of restaurant revenues.

Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income to Non-GAAP Adjusted EBITDA (Thousands of US Dollars)

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 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.

3 Depreciation and amortization and loss (gain) on restaurant and equipment asset sales have been adjusted for any amounts attributable to non-controlling interests.
