BT Brands Reports Results for the Year Ended January 1, 2023

BT Brands, Inc. (Nasdaq: BTBD and BTBDW), today reported its financial results for the fiscal year ending January 1, 2023.

Following the 2022 acquisition of three operating restaurants, and including the 41.2% owned Bagger Dave’s Burger Tavern six locations (OTCMarkets: BDVB), BT Brands has ownership in nineteen restaurants comprising the following:

  • Eight Burger Time fast-food restaurants and one Dairy Queen franchise located in the North Central region of the United States, collectively (“BTND”);
  • Bagger Dave’s Burger Tavern, Inc, a 41.2% owned affiliate, operates six Bagger Dave’s restaurants in Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana (“Bagger Dave’s”);
  • Keegan’s Seafood Grille in Indian Rocks Beach, Florida (“Keegan’s”);
  • Pie In The Sky Coffee and Bakery in Woods Hole, Massachusetts (“PIE”);
  • Village Bier Garten, a German-themed restaurant, bar, and entertainment venue in Cocoa, Florida (“VBG”).

Highlights and recent activities include:

  • Total revenues for fiscal 2022 increased 49% to $12.6 million;
  • Operating income for the year declined to a loss of $391,164 from an operating profit of $980,712;
  • The net loss attributable to common shareholders was $562,285, or a loss of $.09 per share for the year.
  • Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) for the year increased to $1,691,703 in 2022 from $1,631,530 in 2021;
  • Equity in the loss of Bagger Dave’s of $194,813 is included in the 2022 loss.
  • During the fourth quarter of 2022 the Company repurchased 65,000 shares of common stock for $107,012, approximately $1.65 per share. In the first quarter of 2023, we repurchased an additional 150,000 shares for $250,500 or $1.67 per share.
  • The Company ended the year with $8.1 million in cash and short-term investments;
  • The sale of a closed Burger Time store in West St. Paul resulted in a pre-tax gain of $313,000, which will be reported in the first quarter of 2023
  • We anticipate that the disposition of our St. Louis property will result in a $180,000 gain in the second quarter of 2023.

Gary Copperud, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “During fiscal 2022, we completed our transition to a public company, significantly increasing our general and administrative expenses. Overall, we have continued to see inflationary pressure on our cost of sales and staffing. Increasing hourly labor rates are an issue in all of our locations. During 2022, staffing issues led to some lost sales days and, in some instances, a curtailment of store hours. All three of our recently acquired restaurants experienced some challenges during the transition period, and we are working to improve these results. Our goal is to achieve long-term profitability consistent with our acquisition expectations, and we believe we are headed in that direction.

Fiscal 2023 Outlook: Because of the uncertain nature of the performance of recent acquisitions and the evolving character of our Company and because of continuing uncertainty surrounding public health concerns and the aftermath, impacts of supply chain constraints, and the current inflationary environment, the Company is not, at this point, providing a financial forecast for fiscal 2023.

Conference Call: Management will host a conference call to discuss its year-ended January 1, 2023, financial results on Thursday, April 20, 2023, at 4:30 p.m. ET. Hosting the call will be Kenneth Brimmer, Chief Financial Officer and Gary Copperud, Chief Executive Officer. Dial: 877-344-8082

Secondary, international dial-in +1-213-992-4618

The conference call can be accessed live over the phone by dialing the call-in number. In addition, an archive of the call will be available on the Company’s website page after the call has concluded. Website https://itsburgertime.com/corporate/.
