COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted and will continue to adversely affect our operations and financial results for the foreseeable future. In response to COVID-19, the Company has taken significant steps to adapt its business to increase sales while providing a safe environment for guests and employees. COVID-19 related expenses were $2.3 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, composed primarily of sanitation, supplies and safety precautions taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Currently, all restaurants are open for in-person dining. The continuation of normal dining operations is subject to events beyond the Company’s control, including the effectiveness of governmental efforts to halt the spread of COVID-19.

The Company regularly communicates with its major suppliers and has not experienced any significant disruption in its supply chain. The Company has enhanced its programs to attract and retain both restaurant managers and hourly employees. The Company has also increased cleaning protocols, including a role which is focused on sanitation in high-touch and high-traffic areas, implemented daily health and safety checklists, provided additional personal protective equipment and cleaning supplies and engaged third party vendors to perform electrostatic cleaning of its restaurants.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (“condensed consolidated financial statements”) of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited financial statements have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Additionally, the Company believes that the disclosures are sufficient for interim financial reporting purposes.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB “) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU“) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This update requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires a consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2016-13 and assessing the impact on its financial statements.
