GOOD TIMES RESTAURANTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Unaudited)
(Tabular dollar amounts in thousands, except share and per share data)
| Note 1. |
Basis of Presentation
|
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Good Times Restaurants Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Good Times Drive Thru, Inc. (“Drive Thru”), BD of Colorado, LLC (“BD of Colo”), Bad Daddy’s Franchise Development, LLC (“BDFD”) and Bad Daddy’s International, LLC (“BDI”) (together referred to as the “Company”, “we” or “us”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Drive Thru is engaged in the business of developing, owning, operating and franchising hamburger-oriented drive-through restaurants under the name Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard. Most of our Good Times restaurants are located in the front-range communities of Colorado, but we also have franchised restaurants in Wyoming. BD of Colo, BDI and BDFD are engaged in the business of licensing, owning and operating full-service hamburger-oriented restaurants under the name Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices of the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all of the normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 27, 2016 is derived from the audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. As a result, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2016.
Fiscal Year – The Company changed its fiscal year from a 12-month year ending on September 30 to a 52-53-week year ending on the last Tuesday of September, effective with fiscal year 2016. In a 52-week fiscal year, each of the Company’s quarterly periods comprise 13 weeks. The additional week in a 53-week fiscal year is added to the first quarter, making such quarter consist of 14 weeks. The Company made the fiscal year change on a prospective basis and did not adjust operating results for prior periods.
Our first two fiscal quarters of 2017 consisted of 26 weeks beginning on September 28, 2016 and ending on March 28, 2017, our first two fiscal quarters of 2016 consisted of six calendar months beginning on October 1, 2015 and ending on March 31, 2016. Our first two fiscal quarters of 2017 included one less operating day than the first two fiscal quarters of 2016.
Advertising Costs – We utilize Advertising Funds to administer certain advertising programs for both the Good Times and Bad Daddy’s brands that benefit both us and our franchisees. We and our franchisees are required to contribute a percentage of gross sales to the fund. As the contributions to these funds are designated and segregated for advertising, we act as an agent for the franchisees with regard to these contributions. We consolidate the Advertising Funds into our financial statements on a net basis, whereby contributions from franchisees, when received, are recorded as offsets to reported advertising expenses. Contributions to the Advertising Funds from our franchisees were $162,000 and $182,000 for the first and second fiscal quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Reclassification – Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on the net income or loss.

Common Stock.
|
On January 26, 2015, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") which was declared effective by the SEC on March 25, 2015. The registration statement allows the Company to issue common stock from time to time up to an aggregate amount of $75 million, of which $22,688,052 has been issued.
On May 7, 2015, the Company completed a public offering of 2,783,810 shares of its common stock, which included the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, at $8.15 per share for net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses, of approximately $20.6 million. Net proceeds were used for the acquisition of BDI and to fund the remodeling and reimaging of existing Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard restaurants, for the development of new Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar restaurants, as working capital reserves and for future investment at the discretion of our Board of Directors.
| Note 4. |
Stock-Based Compensation
|
Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the grant).
Our net loss for the two quarters ended March 28, 2017 and March 31, 2016 includes $404,000 and $355,000, respectively, of compensation costs related to our stock-based compensation arrangements.
Stock Option awards
The Company measures the compensation cost associated with stock option awards by estimating the fair value of the award as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company believes that the valuation technique and the approach utilized to develop the underlying assumptions are appropriate in calculating the fair values of the Company’s stock options and stock awards granted during the quarter ended March 28, 2017. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by the employees who receive equity awards.
During the two quarters ended March 28, 2017, the Company granted a total of 149,899 incentive stock options, from available shares under its 2008 Plan, as amended, with exercise prices between $3.05 and $3.15 and per-share weighted average fair values between $2.17 and $2.30.
During the two quarters ended March 31, 2016, the Company granted a total of 22,686 non-statutory stock options and a total of 54,110 incentive stock options, from available shares under its 2008 Plan, as amended, with exercise prices between of $5.29 and $6.23 and per-share weighted average fair values between $2.87 and $4.52.
In addition to the exercise and grant date prices of the stock option awards, certain weighted average assumptions that were used to estimate the fair value of stock option grants are listed in the following table:

We estimate expected volatility based on historical weekly price changes of our common stock for a period equal to the current expected term of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on the United States treasury yields in effect at the time of grant corresponding with the expected term of the options. The expected option term is the number of years we estimate that options will be outstanding prior to exercise considering vesting schedules and our historical exercise patterns.

As of March 28, 2017, the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options was $834,000 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.8 years.
There were no stock options exercised during the two quarters ended March 28, 2017 and 6,864 stock options exercised during the two quarters ended March 31, 2016 with proceeds of $15,000.
Restricted Stock Grants
During the two quarters ended March 28, 2017, the Company granted a total of 103,440 shares of restricted stock to certain employees and executive officers from available shares under its 2008 Plan, as amended. The shares were issued with grant date fair market values of $3.15 and $3.20 which is equal to the closing price of the stock on the date of the grants. The restricted stock grants vest between three months and three years following the grant date.
During the two quarters ended March 31, 2016, the Company granted a total of 44,755 shares of restricted stock to certain employees and executive officers from available shares under its 2008 Plan, as amended. The shares were issued with a grant date fair market value of $4.18 which is equal to the closing price of the stock on the date of the grants.

Notes Payable and Long-Term Debt
|
Bridge Funding Credit Facility
On July 30, 2014 Drive Thru entered into a Development Line Loan and Security Agreement with United Capital Business Lending, whose name was changed to Bridge Funding Group in February 2016 (“Lender”), pursuant to which Lender agreed to loan Drive Thru up to $2,100,000 (the “Loan Agreement”) and entered into a Collateral Assignment of Franchise Agreements, Management Agreement and Partnership Interests with Lender. In addition, on July 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Guaranty Agreement (the “Guaranty Agreement”) with Lender, pursuant to which the Company guaranteed the repayment of the Loan. The Loan Agreement, Collateral Assignment, Notes (as defined below) and Guaranty Agreement are referred to herein as the “Loan Documents.”
In connection with each disbursement under the Loan Agreement, Drive Thru executed a Promissory Note (the “Notes”) in the full amount of each disbursement request. The Notes incurred interest at a rate of 6.69% per annum, were repayable in monthly installments of principal and interest over 84 months, and contained other customary terms and conditions. The Notes were subject to certain prepayment fees ranging between 1% and 3% of the unpaid balance at such time if Drive Thru repaid a Note in certain circumstances prior to the thirty-seventh monthly installment under such Note. All promissory notes associated with the Loan Agreement, including all accrued interest, were paid in full on September 9, 2016, and the Loan Agreement with the Lender was terminated. In connection with the termination of the Loan Agreement, the Company incurred Debt Extinguishment Costs of $57,000 for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2016 as a result of $20,000 of prepayment fees paid to Lender and the write off of $37,000 in unamortized loan fees associated with the Loan Agreement.
Cadence Credit Facility
On September 8, 2016 the Company entered into a credit agreement with Cadence Bank (“Cadence”) pursuant to which Cadence agreed to loan the Company up to $9,000,000 (the “Cadence Credit Facility”). The Cadence Credit Facility will mature on September 8, 2019 and accrues commitment fees on the daily unused balance of the facility at a rate of 0.25%. All borrowings under the Cadence Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate based upon the Company’s election of (i) 3.0% plus the base rate, which is the highest of the (a) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Cadence bank publicly-announced prime rate, and (c) LIBOR plus 1.0%, or (ii) LIBOR, with a 0.125% floor, plus 4.0%. Interest is due at the end of each calendar quarter if the Company selects to pay interest based on the base rate and at the end of each LIBOR period if it elects to pay interest based on LIBOR.
The Cadence Credit Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that the Company considers customary for an agreement of this type, including covenants setting a maximum leverage ratio of 5.35:1 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25:1. As of March 28, 2017, the Company was in compliance with its covenants.
As a result of entering into the Cadence Credit Facility, the Company paid loan origination costs including professional fees of approximately $173,000 and will amortize these costs over the term of the credit agreement.
The obligations under the Cadence Credit Facility are collateralized by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets.
As of March 28, 2017 the Company had borrowed $1,400,000 against the Cadence Credit Facility.
BDI Note
In May 2015, in connection with the BDI purchase, the Company entered into a one-year secured promissory note bearing interest at 3.25 percent in the amount of $2,414,000. The entire note and all accrued interest was paid in full on May 6, 2016.
| Note 6. |
Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
|
Our basic earnings per share calculation is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Our diluted earnings per share calculation is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding adjusted by the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding had the potentially dilutive common shares been issued. Potentially dilutive securities for this calculation consist of in-the-money outstanding stock options, restricted stock grants and warrants (which were assumed to have been exercised at the average market price of the common shares during the reporting period). The treasury stock method is used to measure the dilutive impact of in-the-money stock options. Options and restricted stock grants for 987,064 and 767,928 shares of common stock were not included in computing diluted EPS for the two quarters ended March 28, 2017 and March 31, 2016, respectively, because their effects were anti-dilutive.
| Note 7. |
Contingent Liabilities and Liquidity
|
We remain contingently liable on various leases underlying restaurants that were previously sold to franchisees. We have never experienced any losses related to these contingent lease liabilities, however if a franchisee defaults on the payments under the leases, we would be liable for the lease payments as the assignor or sub-lessor of the lease. Currently we have not been notified nor are we aware of any leases in default by the franchisees, however there can be no assurance that there will not be in the future which could have a material effect on our future operating results.
| Note 8. |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill
|
Long-Lived Assets.
We review our long-lived assets for impairment, including land, property and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the capitalized costs of the assets to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets and the expected cash flows are based on recent historical cash flows at the restaurant level (the lowest level that cash flows can be determined).
Given the results of our impairment analysis at March 28, 2017, there are no restaurants which are impaired.
Trademarks.
Trademarks have been determined to have an indefinite life. We evaluate our trademarks for impairment annually and on an interim basis as events and circumstances warrant by comparing the fair value of the trademarks with their carrying amount. There was no impairment required to the acquired trademarks as of March 28, 2017 and March 31, 2016.
Goodwill.
The Company is required to test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever indications of impairment arise including, but not limited to, a significant decline in cash flows from store operations. Such tests could result in impairment charges. As of March 28, 2017, the Company had $96,000 of goodwill related to the purchase of a Good Times franchise operation on December 31, 2012 and $14,980,000 of goodwill related to the acquisition of BDI on May 7, 2015. There was no impairment required to the goodwill for the two quarters ended March 28, 2017 and March 31, 2016.
| Note 9. |
Income Taxes
|
We account for income taxes using the liability method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value. The deferred tax assets are reviewed periodically for recoverability and valuation allowances are adjusted as necessary.
The Company has significant net operating loss carry-forwards from prior years and incurred additional net operating losses during the two quarters ended March 28, 2017 and March 31, 2016. These losses resulted in an increase in the related deferred tax assets; however, valuation allowances were provided which reduced these deferred tax assets to zero; therefore, no income tax provision or benefit was recognized for the two quarters ended March 28, 2017 and March 31, 2016 resulting in an effective income tax rate of 0% for both periods.
The Company is subject to taxation in various jurisdictions. The Company continues to remain subject to examination by U.S. federal authorities for the years 2013 through 2016. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. No accrual for interest and penalties was considered necessary as of March 28, 2017.
| Note 10. |
Non-controlling Interests
|
Non-controlling interests are presented as a separate item in the stockholders’ equity section of the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The amount of consolidated net income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests is presented on the face of the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions, while changes in ownership interest that do result in deconsolidation of a subsidiary require gain or loss recognition based on the fair value on the deconsolidation date.
The equity interests of the unrelated limited partners and members are shown on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet in the stockholders’ equity section as a non-controlling interest and is adjusted each period to reflect the limited partners’ and members’ share of the net income or loss as well as any cash contributions or distributions to or from the limited partners and members for the period. The limited partners’ and members’ share of the net income or loss in the subsidiary is shown as non-controlling interest income or expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated.
The following table summarizes the activity in non-controlling interests during the two quarters ended March 28, 2017 (in thousands):

Prior to the acquisition of BDI our non-controlling interest consisted of one joint venture partnership involving Good Times restaurants. As part of the acquisition of BDI additional non-controlling interests were acquired in three joint venture entities. Two additional joint venture entities were established, one in fiscal 2016 to fund the construction and operate a Bad Daddy’s in North Carolina that opened in January 2017, and one in fiscal 2017 to fund the construction and operate a Bad Daddy’s in North Carolina that is anticipated to open in May 2017.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
|
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), (ASU 2016-02), which replaces the existing guidance in Accounting Standard Codification 840, Leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU 2016-02 requires a dual approach for lessee accounting under which a lessee would account for leases as finance leases or operating leases. Both finance leases and operating leases will result in the lessee recognizing a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial position or results of operations, but expect that it will result in a significant increase in our long-term assets and liabilities given we have a significant number of leases.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2016-09). ASU 2016-09 includes provisions intended to simplify various aspects related to how share-based payments are accounted for and presented in the financial statements. The areas for simplification include income tax consequences, forfeitures, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on its financial statements and disclosures.

Segment Reporting
|
All of our Good Times Burgers and Frozen Custard restaurants (Good Times) compete in the quick-service drive-through dining industry while our Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar restaurants (Bad Daddy’s) compete in the full-service upscale casual dining industry. We believe that providing this additional financial information for each of our brands will provide a better understanding of our overall operating results. Income (loss) from operations represents revenues less restaurant operating costs and expenses, directly allocable general and administrative expenses, and other restaurant-level expenses directly associated with each brand including depreciation and amortization, pre-opening costs and losses or gains on disposal of property and equipment. Unallocated corporate capital expenditures are presented below as reconciling items to the amounts presented in the consolidated financial statements.

This Form 10-Q contains or incorporates by reference forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and the disclosure of risk factors in the Company’s form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2016. Also, documents subsequently filed by us with the SEC and incorporated herein by reference may contain forward-looking statements. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements made by us are not guarantees of future performance and actual results could differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to the following:
| (I) |
We compete with numerous well established competitors who have substantially greater financial resources and longer operating histories than we do. Competitors have increasingly offered selected food items and combination meals, including hamburgers, at discounted prices, and continued discounting by competitors may adversely affect revenues and profitability of Company restaurants.
|
| (II) |
We may be negatively impacted if we experience same store sales declines. Same store sales comparisons will be dependent, among other things, on the success of our advertising and promotion of new and existing menu items. No assurances can be given that such advertising and promotions will in fact be successful.
|
We may also be negatively impacted by other factors common to the restaurant industry such as: changes in consumer tastes away from red meat and fried foods; increases in the cost of food, paper, labor, health care, workers' compensation or energy; inadequate number of hourly paid employees; and/or decreases in the availability of affordable capital resources. We caution the reader that such risk factors are not exhaustive, particularly with respect to future filings. For further discussion of our exposure to market risk, refer to Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2016
.
Overview.
Good Times Restaurant Inc., through its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “we”, “us” or “our”) operates and franchises hamburger-oriented drive-through restaurants under the name Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard (Good Times) and operates and franchises/licenses full service hamburger-oriented restaurants under the name Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar (Bad Daddy’s).
We are focused on continuing to improve the profitability of Good Times and developing additional Good Times restaurants in our home state of Colorado while developing the Bad Daddy’s concept with company-owned restaurants in Colorado and North Carolina in addition to other markets in the U.S., allowing us to leverage the strength and opportunities of both brands.
Growth Strategies and Outlook.
We believe there are significant opportunities to develop new units, grow customer traffic and increase awareness of our brands. The following sets for the key elements of our growth strategy:
| · |
Pursue disciplined growth of company-owned Bad Daddy’s restaurants
|
| · |
Develop joint venture and/or franchised Bad Daddy’s
|
| · |
Remodel/refresh our Good Times restaurants
|
| · |
Expand the number of Good Times locations
|
| · |
Increase same-store sales in both brands
|
| · |
Leverage our infrastructure
|
Restaurant locations
.

For the two quarters ended March 28, 2017, the income attributable to non-controlling interests was $287,000 compared to $369,000 in the two quarters ended March 31, 2016. $162,000 of the current year income is attributable to the Good Times joint venture restaurants, compared to $195,000 in the same prior year period. $125,000 of the current year income is attributable to the BDI joint venture restaurants, compared to $174,000 in the same prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization.
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA plus non-cash stock based compensation expense, preopening expense, non-recurring acquisition costs, GAAP rent in excess of cash rent, and non-cash disposal of assets. Adjusted EBITDA is intended as a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and operating results. Our management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (i) as a factor in evaluating management's performance when determining incentive compensation and (ii) to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies.
We believe that the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company's financial measures with other fast casual restaurants, which may present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. In addition, you should be aware when evaluating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA that in the future we may incur expenses similar to those excluded when calculating these measures. Our presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because all companies do not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same fashion.
Our management does not consider EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company's financial statements. Some of these limitations are:
| · |
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
|
| · |
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
|
| · |
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts;
|
| · |
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
|
| · |
stock based compensation expense is and will remain a key element of our overall long-term incentive compensation package, although we exclude it as an expense when evaluating our ongoing performance for a particular period;
|
| · |
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and
|
| · |
other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
|
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally. You should review the reconciliation of net loss to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and Working Capital:
As of March 28, 2017, we had a working capital deficit of $272,000. Our working capital position benefits from the fact that we generally collect cash from sales to customers the same day, or in the case of credit or debit card transactions, within several days of the related sale, and we typically have two to four weeks to pay our vendors. This benefit may increase when new Bad Daddy’s and Good Times restaurants are opened. We believe that with our ability to access the Cadence Bank credit facility in addition to cash flow generated from our existing restaurants, that we will have sufficient capital to meet our working capital, long term debt obligations and recurring capital expenditure needs in fiscal 2017. As of March 28, 2017, we had total commitments outstanding of $689,000 related to construction contracts for Bad Daddy’s restaurants currently under development. We anticipate these commitments will be funded out of existing cash or future borrowings against the Cadence Bank credit facility.
Financing:
Bad Daddy’s International Note Payable:
In May 2015, in connection with the BDI purchase, the Company entered into a one-year secured promissory note bearing interest at 3.25% in the amount of $2,414,000. The outstanding promissory note, along with all accrued interest, was paid in full on May 6, 2016.
Bridge Funding Credit Facility:
On July 30, 2014 Drive Thru entered into a Development Line Loan and Security Agreement with United Capital Business Lending, whose name was changed to Bridge Funding Group (“Lender”), pursuant to which Lender agreed to loan Drive Thru up to $2,100,000 (the “Loan”) and entered into a Collateral Assignment of Franchise Agreements, Management Agreement and Partnership Interests with Lender. In addition, on July 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Guaranty Agreement (the “Guaranty Agreement”) with Lender, pursuant to which the Company guaranteed the repayment of the Loan. The Loan Agreement, Collateral Assignment, Notes (as defined below) and Guaranty Agreement are referred to herein as the “Loan Documents.”
In connection with each disbursement under the Loan Agreement, Drive Thru executed a Promissory Note (the “Notes”) in the full amount of each disbursement request. The Notes incur interest at a rate of 6.69% per annum, are repayable in monthly installments of principal and interest over 84 months, and contain other customary terms and conditions. The Notes are subject to certain prepayment fees ranging between 1% and 3% of the unpaid balance at such time if Drive Thru repays a Note in certain circumstances prior to the thirty seventh monthly installment under such Note. All promissory notes associated with the Loan Agreement, including all accrued interest, were paid in full on September 9, 2016, and the Loan Agreement with the Lender was terminated. In connection with the termination of the Loan Agreement, the Company incurred Debt Extinguishment Costs of $57,000 for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2016 as a result of $20,000 of prepayment fees paid to Lender and the write off of $37,000 in unamortized loan fees associated with the Loan Agreement.
Cadence Credit Facility:
On September 8, 2016 the Company entered into a credit agreement with Cadence Bank (“Cadence”) pursuant to which Cadence agreed to loan the Company up to $9,000,000 (the “Cadence Credit Facility”). The Cadence Credit Facility will mature on September 8, 2019 and accrues commitment fees on the daily unused balance of the facility at a rate of 0.25%. All borrowings under the Cadence Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate based upon the Company’s election of (i) 3.0% plus the base rate, which is the highest of the (a) Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Cadence bank publicly-announced prime rate, and (c) LIBOR plus 1.0%, or (ii) LIBOR, with a 0.125% floor, plus 4.0%. Interest is due at the end of each calendar quarter if the Company selects to pay interest based on the base rate and at the end of each LIBOR period if it elects to pay interest based on LIBOR.
The Cadence Credit Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that the Company considers customary for an agreement of this type, including covenants setting a maximum leverage ratio of 5.35:1 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25:1. As of March 28, 2017, the Company was in compliance with its covenants.
The obligations under the Cadence Credit Facility are collateralized by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets.
As of March 28, 2017 the Company had borrowed $1,400,000 against the Cadence Credit Facility.
Capital Expenditures.
Planned capital expenditures for the balance of fiscal 2017 include normal recurring capital expenditures for existing Good Times and Bad Daddy’s restaurants, new Bad Daddy’s restaurants and reimage and remodel costs for Good Times restaurants.
Assets Held for Sale.
At December 27, 2016 we had classified $1,407,000 of assets as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheet. Those costs, along with additional expenditures in the quarter ending March 28, 2017, were related to a Good Times site in Greeley, Colorado which opened in March 2017. We finalized a sale lease-back transaction when the restaurant opened with gross proceeds of 1,927,000, $1,722,000 of which was received in the quarter ended March 27, 2017 with the balance of $205,000 to be paid out of escrow in the quarter ended June 27, 2017.
Subsequent Events.
On April 28, 2017 the Company purchased the land and building of a company owned Good Times in Brighton, Colorado for $1.2 million. The Company anticipates selling the assets in a sale leaseback transaction during the third fiscal quarter of 2017.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the two quarters ended March 28, 2017 was $1,281,000, which includes principal payments on notes payable, long term debt and capital leases of $14,000, borrowings on notes payable and long term debt of $1,400,000, contributions from non-controlling interests of $350,000 and distributions to non-controlling interests of $455,000.

Contingencies
.
We remain contingently liable on various leases underlying restaurants that were previously sold to franchisees. We have never experienced any losses related to these contingent lease liabilities, however if a franchisee defaults on the payments under the leases, we would be liable for the lease payments as the assignor or sublessor of the lease. Currently we have not been notified nor are we aware of any leases in default under which we are contingently liable, however there can be no assurance that there will not be in the future, which could have a material effect on our future operating results.
Impact of Inflation
The total menu price increases taken at our Good Times restaurants during fiscal 2016 were approximately 2.9%, and we have taken an additional 3.0% increase in fiscal 2017. The total menu increases taken at our Bad Daddy’s restaurants during fiscal 2017 were 1.3%. Commodity costs have been relatively stable in the first two fiscal quarters of 2017 compared to the same prior year period. We expect Good Times’ and Bad Daddy’s food and packaging costs to remain consistent with the first two fiscal quarters as a percentage of sales during of the remainder of fiscal 2017. However, if we experience cost pressure on our core commodities, including beef and bacon, our food and packaging costs as a percentage of sales could be higher during the remainder of fiscal 2017 than in the first two fiscal quarters.
Seasonality
Revenues of the Company are subject to seasonal fluctuations based primarily on weather conditions adversely affecting Colorado restaurant sales in December January, February and March.
Not required.
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of the end of the period covered by this report on form 10Q, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Controller (its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively) have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended March 28, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
.
