GOOD TIMES RESTAURANTS REPORTS RESULTS FOR
THE FISCAL 2025 FOURTH QUARTER AND FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2025

(GOLDEN, CO) 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 30, 2025.

Highlights of the Company’s financial results include:

Ryan M. Zink, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “The second half of the 2025 fiscal year marked weakness in sales at both brands though Bad Daddy’s exhibited greater resilience in markets outside of Colorado, where for both the year and the quarter same store sales performed better than the consolidated results by nearly 100 basis points and better than the Colorado results by nearly 300 basis points. We have seen sequential Same Store Sales improvement during the first quarter of fiscal 2026 at both concepts, and at Bad Daddy’s, most specifically in the Colorado restaurants. Our Good Times team is laser-focused on increasing Same Store Sales while at the same time improving restaurant-level margins, which we expect both in food and beverage cost as well as in restaurant labor costs.”

“We have adjusted our advertising and promotional strategies at both brands and will continue to fine-tune those to better reach our guests and drive improved traffic to our restaurants. Most notably, we have included streaming video advertising in the media mix at both brands and launched a new branding campaign for Good Times, Colorado Native Burgers, which highlights the brand’s Colorado roots. In the second quarter, we are kicking off campaigns featuring both value-oriented items and items unique to Good Times that support our Colorado heritage and also have broad appeal among our current and future guests. At Bad Daddy’s, in the fiscal 2026 second quarter we will be featuring a Mediterranean Power Bowl, expanding upon our already popular salad line-up, complemented by two separate regional burger specials. Beginning in March, we will be adopting a Burger of the Month platform to focus more heavily on familiar items with broad customer appeal that are not part of our core menu. Though less complex and more approachable in nature, these items will still be built to Bad Daddy’s exacting standards for quality and flavor.” Zink continued.

Mr. Zink concluded, “I am optimistic that fiscal 2026 will see improved performance for both brands after a difficult 2025. Our leadership teams are committed to delivering better results that we believe starts with understanding our guests’ interactions with our brands while taking swift action to meet their changing needs and communicate the superior food, beverage, and service that both of our brands provide compared to our competitors.”

Margin Analysis:

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).

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 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 income (loss) from operations or net income (loss) 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 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.

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