FLANIGANıS ENTERPRISES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

JANUARY 1, 2011

 

 

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial information for the periods ended January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010 are unaudited.  Financial information as of October 2, 2010 has been derived from the audited financial statements of the Company, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information for the periods indicated have been included.  For further information regarding the Company's accounting policies, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 2, 2010.  Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.

 

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and the accounts of the nine limited partnerships in which we act as general partner and have controlling interests.  Flaniganıs Enterprises of N. Miami, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, was formed in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 for the purpose of investing in the real property and building where our combination restaurant and package liquor store located at 13205 Biscayne Boulevard, North Miami, Florida,(Store #20), operates.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Non-controlling interest represents the limited partnersı proportionate share of the net assets and results of operations of the nine limited partnerships.

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements include estimates relating to performance based officersı bonuses.  The estimates are reviewed periodically and the effects of any revisions are reflected in the financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary.  Although these estimates are based on managementıs knowledge of current events and actions it may take in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results.  

 

(2)  EARNINGS PER SHARE:

 

We follow Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Section 260 - ³Earnings per Share² (FASB ASC Topic 260).  This section provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share..  The data on Page 3 shows the amounts used in computing earnings per share and the effects on income and the weighted average number of shares of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents.  As of January 1, 2011, no stock options were outstanding.

 

(3)  RECLASSIFICATION:

 

Certain amounts in the fiscal year 2010 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal year 2011 presentation.   The reclassifications had no effect on consolidated net income.

 

(4)  RECENTLY ADOPTED AND RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

 

Adopted

 

In June 2009, the FASB issued changes to the accounting for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity and modifies the methods allowed for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity.  In addition, these changes require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and enhanced disclosures related to an enterpriseıs involvement in a variable interest entity.  These changes became effective for annual periods beginning after November 15, 2009, were adopted by us in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. 

 

Issued

 

There were no recently issued accounting pronouncements during the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 that we believe will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

(5)   EXTENSION OF LEASE FOR REAL PROPERTY:

 

Surfside, Florida

 

During the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011, the limited partnership which owns the restaurant located at 9516 Harding Avenue, Surfside, Florida, (Store #60), extended its lease for a period of ten years.  The renewal terms are substantially the same as the existing lease, except that the annual rent will be subject to an increase effective January 1, 2011 and will thereafter be subject to fixed annual increases.

 

(6)   INVESTMENT IN REAL PROPERTY:

 

North Miami, Florida

 

During the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011, our wholly owned subsidiary, (Flaniganıs Enterprises of N. Miami, Inc., a Florida corporation), closed on the purchase of the real property and building where our combination restaurant and package liquor store located at 13205 Biscayne Boulevard, North Miami, Florida,(Store #20), operates. We paid $1,750,000 for this property and subsequently borrowed $850,000 from a related third party, pursuant to a first mortgage, which we guaranteed.  The mortgage note bears interest at the rate of ten (10%) percent per annum, is amortized over fifteen (15) years with equal monthly payments of principal and interest, each in the amount of $9,100, with a balloon payment of approximately $555,000 during January, 2019.

 

(7)  DEBT

 

 Financed Insurance Premiums

 

(i) For the policy year beginning December 30, 2010, our property insurance is a three (3) year policy with our insurance carrier.  The three (3) year property insurance premium is in the amount of $894,000, of which $727,000 is financed through an unaffiliated third party lender.  The finance agreement provides that we are obligated to repay the amounts financed, together with interest at the rate of 4.89% per annum, over 30 months, with monthly payments of principal and interest, each in the amount of approximately $25,000.  The finance agreement is secured by a security interest in all insurance policies, all unearned premium, return premium, dividend payments and loss payments thereof.

 

(ii)  For the policy year beginning December 30, 2010, our general liability insurance, excluding limited partnerships, is a one (1) year policy with our insurance carriers, including automobile and excess liability coverage.  The one (1) year general liability insurance premiums, including automobile and excess liability coverage, total in the aggregate $244,000, of which $195,000 is financed through the same unaffiliated third party lender.  The finance agreement provides that we are obligated to repay the amounts financed, together with interest at the rate of 2.99% per annum, over 9 months, with monthly payments of principal and interest, each in the amount of $22,000.  The finance agreement is secured by a security interest in all insurance policies, all unearned premium, return premium, dividend payments and loss payments thereof.

 

(iii)  For the policy year beginning December 30, 2010, our general liability insurance for our limited partnerships is a one (1) year policy with our insurance carriers, including excess liability coverage.  The one (1) year general liability insurance premiums, including excess liability coverage, total, in the aggregate $198,000, of which $159,000 is financed through the same unaffiliated third party lender.  The finance agreement provides that we are obligated to repay the amounts financed, together with interest at the rate of 2.99% per annum, over 9 months, with monthly payments of principal and interest, each in the amount of approximately $18,000.  The finance agreement is secured by a security interest in all insurance policies, all unearned premium, return premium, dividend payments and loss payments thereof.

 

(8)  INCOME TAXES:

 

We account for our income taxes using FASB ASC Topic 740, ³Income Taxes², which requires among other things, recognition of future tax benefits measured at enacted rates attributable to deductible temporary differences between financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities and to tax net operating loss carryforwards and tax credits to the extent that realization of said tax benefits is more likely than not.

 

(9)  STOCK OPTION PLAN:       

 

We have one stock option plan under which qualified stock options may be granted to our officers and other employees.  Under this plan, the exercise price for the qualified stock options must be no less than 100% of the fair market value of the Companyıs Common Stock on the date the options are granted.  In general, options granted under our stock option plan expire after a five (5) year period and generally vest no later than one (1) year from the date of grant.  As of January 1, 2011, no options to acquire shares were outstanding.  Under this plan, options to acquire an aggregate of 45,000 shares are available for grant.

 

No stock options were granted during the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011, nor were stock options granted during the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.

 

No stock options were exercised during the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011, nor were stock options exercised during the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010. 

 

There was no stock option activity during the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011, nor was there stock option activity during the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.

 

(10)   ACQUISITIONS:

 

Purchase of Company Common Stock

 

Pursuant to a discretionary plan approved by the Board of Directors at its meeting on May 17, 2007, during the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011, we purchased 800 shares of our common stock from the Joseph G. Flanigan Charitable Trust for an aggregate purchase price of $6,400.  During the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010, we purchased 1,000 shares of our common stock from the Joseph G. Flanigan Charitable Trust for an aggregate purchase price of $6,000.

(11)  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

 

Guarantees

 

We guarantee various leases for franchisees and locations sold in prior years.  Remaining rental commitments required under these leases are approximately $814,000.  In the event of a default under any of these agreements, we will have the right to repossess the premises and operate the business to recover amounts paid under the guarantee either by liquidating assets or operating the business.

 

We account for such lease guarantees in accordance with ASC Topic 460, ³Guarantees².  Under ASC Topic 460, we would be required to recognize the fair value of guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, for non-contingent guarantee obligations, and also a liability for contingent guarantee obligations based on the probability that the guaranteed party will not perform under the contractual terms of the guaranty agreement.

 

We do not believe it is probable that we will be required to perform under the remaining lease guarantees and therefore, no liability has been accrued in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Litigation

From time to time, we are a defendant in litigation arising in the ordinary course of our business, including claims resulting from ³slip and fall² accidents, claims under federal and state laws governing access to public accommodations, employment-related claims and claims from guests alleging illness, injury or other food quality, health or operational concerns. To date, none of this litigation, some of which is covered by insurance, has had a material effect on us.

We own the building where our corporate offices are located.  On April 16, 2001, we filed suit against the owner of the adjacent shopping center to determine our right to non-exclusive parking in the shopping center.  During fiscal year 2007, the appellate court affirmed and upon re-hearing, again affirmed the granting of a summary judgment in favor of the shopping center.  The seller from whom we purchased the building was named as a defendant in the lawsuit by the owner of the adjacent shopping center and we filed and served a cross-complaint against the seller.  During the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2009, the seller was awarded reimbursement of its attorneysı fees and costs in the amount of $109,000 and during the second quarter of our fiscal year 2010, the trial court denied our motion for re-consideration of a portion of the award. During the third quarter of our fiscal year 2010, we paid the award of attorneysı fees and costs.  During the second quarter of our fiscal year 2009, the seller filed suit against us for malicious prosecution.  During the second quarter of our fiscal year 2010, the court denied the sellerıs motion for punitive damages.  We deny the allegations and are vigorously defending against the allegations. 

 

(12)     SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

(13)  BUSINESS SEGMENTS:

 

We operate principally in two reportable segments – package stores and restaurants.  The operation of package stores consists of retail liquor sales and related items.  Information concerning the revenues and operating income for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010, and identifiable assets for the two reportable segments in which we operate, are shown in the following table.  Operating income is total revenue less cost of merchandise sold and operating expenses relative to each segment.  In computing operating income, none of the following items have been included: interest expense, other non-operating income and expenses and income taxes.  Identifiable assets by segment are those assets that are used in our operations in each segment.  Corporate assets are principally cash and real property, improvements, furniture, equipment and vehicles used at our corporate headquarters.  We do not have any operations outside of the United States and transactions between restaurants and package liquor stores are not material.

Notes:

(1) We operate a restaurant for one (1) franchisee.  This unit is included in the table both as a franchised restaurant, as well as a restaurant operated by us.

 

Franchise Financial Arrangement:  In exchange for our providing management and related services to our franchisees and granting them the right to use our service marks ³Flaniganıs Seafood Bar and Grill² and ³Big Daddyıs Liquors², our franchisees (four of which are franchised to members of the family of our Chairman of the Board, officers and/or directors), are required to (i) pay to us a royalty equal to 1% of gross package sales and 3% of gross restaurant sales; and (ii) make advertising expenditures equal to between 1.5% to 3% of all gross sales based upon our actual advertising costs allocated between stores, pro-rata, based upon gross sales.  

Limited Partnership Financial Arrangement:  We manage and control the operations of all restaurants owned by limited partnerships, except the Fort Lauderdale, Florida restaurant which is owned by a related franchisee.  Accordingly, the results of operations of all limited partnership owned restaurants, except the Fort Lauderdale, Florida restaurant are consolidated into our operations for accounting purposes.  The results of operations of the Fort Lauderdale, Florida restaurant are accounted for by us utilizing the equity method.  In general, until the investorsı cash investment in a limited partnership (including any cash invested by us and our affiliates) is returned in full, the limited partnership distributes to the investors annually out of available cash from the operation of the restaurant up to 25% of the cash invested in the limited partnership, with no management fee paid to us.  Any available cash in excess of the 25% of the cash invested in the limited partnership distributed to the investors annually, is paid one-half (½) to us as a management fee, with the balance distributed to the investors.  Once the investors in the limited partnership have received, in full, amounts equal to their cash invested, an annual management fee is payable to us equal to one-half (½) of cash available to the limited partnership, with the other one half (½) of available cash distributed to the investors (including us and our affiliates).  As of January 1, 2011, limited partnerships owning three (3) restaurants, (Surfside, Florida, Kendall, Florida and West Miami, Florida locations), have returned all cash invested and we receive an annual management fee equal to one-half (½) of the cash available for distribution by the limited partnership.  In addition to its receipt of distributable amounts from the limited partnerships, we receive a fee equal to 3% of gross sales for use of the service mark ³Flaniganıs Seafood Bar and Grill².

Comparison of Thirteen Weeks Ended January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010.

 

Revenues.  Total revenue for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 increased $624,000 or 3.64% to $17,788,000 from $17,164,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  

 

            Restaurant Food Sales.  Restaurant revenue generated from the sale of food at restaurants totaled $10,914,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 as compared to $10,604,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  Comparable weekly restaurant food sales (for restaurants open for all of the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010, which consists of seven restaurants owned by us and nine restaurants owned by affiliated limited partnerships) was $803,000 and $779,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 and January 2, 2010, respectively, an increase of 3.08%.  Comparable weekly restaurant food sales for Company owned restaurants only was $307,000 and $295,000 for the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010, respectively, an increase of 4.07%.  Comparable weekly restaurant food sales for affiliated limited partnership owned restaurants only was $496,000 and $483,000 for the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010, respectively, an increase of 2.69%. 

 

            Restaurant Bar Sales.  Restaurant revenue generated from the sale of alcoholic beverages at restaurants (bar sales) totaled $2,846,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 as compared to $2,609,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  Comparable weekly restaurant bar sales (for restaurants open for all of the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010, which consists of seven restaurants owned by us and nine restaurants owned by affiliated limited partnerships) was $206,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 and $189,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010, an increase of 8.99%.  Comparable weekly restaurant bar sales for Company owned restaurants only was $76,000 and $73,000 for the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010, respectively, an increase of 4.11%.  Comparable weekly restaurant bar sales for affiliated limited partnership owned restaurants only was $129,000 and $117,000 for the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010, respectively, an increase of 10.26%.   Restaurant bar sales increased during the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 primarily due to an increase in same store restaurant bar sales resulting from our half price drink promotion from 9:00 p.m. to closing, which promotion was in effect during the entire first quarter of our fiscal year 2011, but only instituted for part of the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010. 

 

                Package Store Sales.  Revenue generated from sales of liquor and related items at package liquor stores totaled $3,699,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 as compared to $3,593,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010, an increase of $106,000.  The weekly average of same store package liquor store sales, which includes all nine (9) Company owned package liquor stores, was $285,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 as compared to $276,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010, an increase of 3.26%.  Package liquor store sales are expected to remain stable throughout the balance of our fiscal year 2011. 

 

Operating Costs and Expenses.  Operating costs and expenses, (consisting of cost of merchandise sold, payroll and related costs, occupancy costs and selling, general and administrative expenses), for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 increased $547,000 or 3.30% to $17,120,000 from $16,573,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  The increase was primarily due to a general increase in food costs, offset by a decrease in repairs and maintenance to our units and actions taken by management to reduce and/or control costs and expenses.  We anticipate that our operating costs and expenses will continue to increase through our fiscal year 2011 due primarily to an expected general increase in food costs, including an increase in the cost of ribs.  Operating costs and expenses decreased as a percentage of total sales to approximately 96.24% in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 from 96.56% in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010. 

 

Gross Profit. Gross profit is calculated by subtracting the cost of merchandise sold from sales.

 

            Restaurant Food and Bar Sales. Gross profit for food and bar sales for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 increased to $9,034,000 from $8,689,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  Our gross profit margin for restaurant food and bar sales (calculated as gross profit reflected as a percentage of restaurant food and bar sales), was 65.65% for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 and 65.76% for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  We anticipate that our gross profit for restaurant food and bar sales will decrease during the balance of our fiscal year 2011 due to higher food costs, including our cost of ribs.    

 

            Package Store Sales.  Gross profit for package store sales for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 increased to $1,263,000 from $1,140,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  Our gross profit margin, (calculated as gross profit reflected as a percentage of package liquor store sales), for package liquor store sales was 34.14% for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 and 31.73% for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  The increase in our gross profit margin, (2.41%), was primarily due to the purchase of "close out" and inventory reduction merchandise from wholesalers. We anticipate the gross profit margin for package store sales to remain constant throughout the balance of our fiscal year 2011 as we expect to continue purchasing ³close out² and inventory reduction merchandise from wholesalers. 

 

Payroll and Related Costs.  Payroll and related costs for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 increased $351,000 or 7.14% to $5,270,000 from $4,919,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  We anticipate that our payroll and related costs will remain constant throughout the balance of our fiscal year 2011 Payroll and related costs as a percentage of total sales was 29.63% in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and 28.66% of total sales in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010. 

 

Occupancy Costs.  Occupancy costs (consisting of rent, common area maintenance, repairs, real property taxes and amortization of leasehold purchases) for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 decreased $30,000 or 2.83% to $1,031,000 from $1,061,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  Our occupancy costs decreased primarily due to the elimination of rent paid for our restaurant located at 2600 West Davie Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale, Florida (Store #22), the real property and building of which we purchased during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2010, and our combination restaurant and package liquor store located at 13205 Biscayne Boulevard, North Miami, Florida (Store #20), the real property and building of which we purchased during the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011.  We anticipate that our occupancy costs will decrease throughout the balance of our fiscal year 2011, primarily due to the elimination of rent paid for our restaurant located at 2600 West Davie Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale, Florida (Store #22) and our combination restaurant and package liquor store located at 13205 Biscayne Boulevard, North Miami, Florida (Store #20).

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses (consisting of general corporate expenses, including but not limited to advertising, insurance, professional costs, clerical and administrative overhead) for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 increased $41,000 or 1.13% to $3,657,000 from $3,616,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of total sales in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 to approximately 20.56% as compared to 21.07% in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010.  We anticipate that our selling, general and administrative expenses will increase throughout the balance of our fiscal year 2011 across all categories.

 

Depreciation.  Depreciation for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 increased $42,000 or 7.54% to $599,000 from $557,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  As a percentage of total revenue, depreciation expense was 3.37% of revenue for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 and 3.25% of revenue in the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010. 

Interest Expense, Net.  Interest expense, net, for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 increased $31,000 to $136,000 from $105,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  Interest expense increased during the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 primarily due to the interest paid on the mortgages associated with the purchase of our restaurant located at 2600 West Davie Boulevard, Fort Lauderdale, Florida (Store #22), and our combination restaurant and package liquor store located at 13205 Biscayne Boulevard, North Miami, Florida (Store #20), which mortgages did not exist during the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010. 

 

Net Income.   Net income for the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011 increased $62,000 or 21.53% to $350,000 from $288,000 for the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010.  As a percentage of sales, net income for the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 is 1.97%, as compared to 1.68% in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010. 

 

New Limited Partnership Restaurants

 

During the first quarter of our fiscal years 2011 and 2010, we did not have a new restaurant location in the development stage and did not recognize any pre-opening costs.   

 

While we currently have no new restaurants under development, if we are to open new restaurants, our income from operations will be adversely affected due to our obligation to fund pre-opening costs, including but not limited to pre-opening rent for the new locations.  We believe that our current cash on hand, together with our expected cash generated from operations will be sufficient to fund our operations and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months.

 

Trends

 

During the next twelve months, we expect same store food sales to decline due primarily to increased competition.  We expect package store sales to remain stable.  We expect higher food costs and higher overall expenses, which will adversely affect our net income.  In December, 2007, we raised menu prices to offset the higher food costs and overall expenses.  During the first and fourth quarters of our fiscal year 2010, we raised certain of our alcoholic drink prices.  We plan to limit menu price increases as long as possible while maintaining our high quality of food and service and without reducing our food portions.  We have limited our advertising, but plan to attract and retain our customers by offering discount coupons and promotional gift cards, but are monitoring the impact of such discounts on our gross profit.  We may be required to raise menu prices wherever competitively possible. 

 

Although we have no new restaurant in development, we continue to search for new locations to open restaurants and thereby expand our business, but we are now looking for locations that will not require an extensive and costly renovation.  Any new locations will likely be opened using our limited partnership ownership model.

 

We are not actively searching for locations for the operation of new package liquor stores, but if an appropriate location for a package liquor store becomes available, we will consider it.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We fund our operations through cash from operations.  As of January 1, 2011, we had cash of approximately $5,344,000, a decrease of $1,103,000 from our cash balance of $6,447,000 as of October 2, 2010.  The decrease in cash as of January 1, 2011 was primarily due to our expending approximately $1,750,000 as the cash required to close on the purchase of the real property and building where our combination restaurant and package liquor store located at 13205 Biscayne Boulevard, North Miami, Florida, (Store #20) operates, offset by $850,000 we borrowed from a related third party at the end of the first quarter, which loan is secured by a mortgage on the real property and building.  Management believes that the Companyıs current cash availability from its cash on hand and the expected cash from operations will be sufficient to fund operations and capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months.

We did not declare or pay a cash dividend on our capital stock in our fiscal year 2010.  On December 22, 2010, our Board declared a cash dividend of 10 cents per share payable on January 18, 2011 to shareholders of record on January 7, 2011. Any future determination to pay cash dividends will be at our Boardıs discretion and will depend upon our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements and such other factors as our Board deems relevant.

 

Capital Expenditures

 

In addition to using cash for our operating expenses, we use cash to fund the development and construction of new restaurants and secondarily to fund capitalized property improvements for our existing restaurants.  We acquired property and equipment of $2,557,000, (including $61,000 of which was financed and $16,000 of deposits recorded in other assets as of October 2, 2010), during the thirteen weeks ended January 1, 2011, including $402,000 for renovations to one (1) existing Company owned restaurant.  During the thirteen weeks ended January 2, 2010, we acquired property and equipment of $1,675,000, (including $850,000 of which was financed, $99,000 of which was the non-cash purchase of the assets of the franchised restaurant and $6,000 of deposits recorded in other assets as of October 3, 2009), including $241,000 to complete the renovations to two (2) existing Company owned restaurants.

 

All of our owned units require periodic refurbishing in order to remain competitive. We anticipate the cost of this refurbishment in our fiscal year 2011 to be approximately $1,300,000, of which $402,000 has been spent through January 1, 2011.

 

Long Term Debt

 

As of January 1, 2011, we had long term debt of $9,785,000, as compared to $7,718,000, (including our line of credit), as of January 2, 2010, and $8,053,000 as of October 2, 2010. 

 

Purchase Commitments

 

In order to fix the cost and ensure adequate supply of baby back ribs for our restaurants, on November 30, 2010, we entered into a purchase agreement with a new rib supplier, whereby we agreed to purchase approximately $3,100,000 of baby back ribs during calendar year 2011 from this vendor at a fixed cost.  While we anticipate purchasing all of our rib supply from this vendor, we believe there are several other alternative vendors available, if needed.

 

Working Capital

 

The table below summarizes the current assets, current liabilities, and working capital for our fiscal quarters ended January 1, 2011, January 2, 2010 and our fiscal year ended October 2, 2010.

Our working capital as of January 1, 2011 decreased by 2.81% from the working capital for the fiscal quarter ending January 2, 2010 and decreased by 47.80% from the working capital for the fiscal year ending October 2, 2010.  During the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011, we closed on the purchase of the real property and building where our combination restaurant and package liquor store located at 13205 Biscayne Boulevard, North Miami, Florida, (Store #20) operates, expending approximately $1,750,000 as the cash required to close.  At the end of the first quarter, we borrowed $850,000 from a related party, which loan is secured by a mortgage on the real property and building.  During the first quarter of our fiscal year 2010, we closed on the purchase of the real property and building where our combination restaurant and package liquor store located at 2505 N. University Drive, Hollywood, Florida, (Store #19) operates, expending approximately $525,000 as the cash required to close.

 

While there can be no assurance due to, among other things, unanticipated expenses or unanticipated decline in revenues, or both, we believe that positive cash flow from operations will adequately fund operations, debt reductions and planned capital expenditures throughout the balance of our fiscal year 2011. 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not have off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Inflation

 

The primary inflationary factors affecting our operations are food, beverage and labor costs.  A large number of restaurant personnel are paid at rates based upon applicable minimum wage and increases in minimum wage directly affect labor costs.  To date, inflation has not had a material impact on our operating results, but this circumstance may change in the future if food and fuel costs continue to rise.

 

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

We do not ordinarily hold market risk sensitive instruments for trading purposes and as of January 1, 2011 held no equity securities.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

As part of our ongoing operations, we are exposed to interest rate fluctuations on our borrowings. As more fully described in Note 9 ³Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments² to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in ³Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data² of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended October 2, 2010, we use interest rate swap agreements to manage these risks.  These instruments are not used for speculative purposes but are used to modify variable rate obligations into fixed rate obligations.

 

At January 1, 2011, we had two variable rate debt instruments, (the Term Loan and the Refinanced Mortgage Loan), outstanding that are impacted by changes in interest rates.  As a means of managing our interest rate risk on these debt instruments, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with third party financial institutions to convert certain variable rate debt obligations to fixed rates. We are currently party to the following two (2) interest rate swap agreements:

 

(i) One (1) interest rate swap agreement entered into in July, 2010 relates to a secured term loan in the original principal amount of $1,586,000, (the ³Term Loan Swap²), which converts the LIBOR based variable rate interest to a fixed rate.  The Term Loan Swap requires us to pay interest for a three (3) year period at a fixed rate of 4.55% on an initial amortizing notional principal amount of $1,586,000, while receiving interest for the same period at the British Bankers Association LIBOR (³LIBOR²), Daily Floating Rate, plus 3.25%, on the same amortizing notional principal amount. Under this method of accounting, at January 1, 2011, we determined the fair value of the Term Loan Swap to be a liability of approximately ($13,000) based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities provided by our unrelated third party lender.  The fair value of the Term Loan Swap at January 1, 2011 was not significant; and

 

(ii) The second interest rate swap agreement entered into in July, 2010 relates to a first mortgage loan encumbering our corporate offices, (the ³Mortgage Loan Swap²). We account for the Mortgage Loan Swap using hedge accounting treatment because the derivative has been determined to be effective in achieving offsetting changes in fair value of the hedged item.  The Mortgage Loan Swap requires us to pay interest for a seven (7) year period at a fixed rate of 5.11% on an initial amortizing notional principal amount of $935,000, while receiving interest for the same period at LIBOR, Daily Floating Rate, plus 2.25%, on the same amortizing notional principal amount.  Under this method of accounting, at January 1, 2011, we determined the fair value of the Mortgage Loan Swap to be a liability of approximately ($20,000) based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities provided by our unrelated third party lender.  The fair value of the Mortgage Loan Swap, at January 1, 2011 was not significant.

 

At January 1, 2011, our cash resources earn interest at variable rates. Accordingly, our return on these funds is affected by fluctuations in interest rates.

 

There is no assurance that interest rates will increase or decrease over our next fiscal year or that an increase will not have a material adverse effect on our operations.

 

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Based on evaluations as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the participation of our management team, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the ³Exchange Act²)) were effective.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls and Permitted Omission from Managementıs Assessment

           

Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls.  Accordingly, even effective internal controls can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.       

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the period covered by this report, we have not made any change to our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
