Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. Reports Results for the Fiscal Second Quarter Ended July 12, 2020
Greenwood Village, CO – August 11, 2020 – Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. (NASDAQ: RRGB) ("Red Robin" or the "Company"), a full-service restaurant chain serving an innovative selection of high-quality gourmet burgers in a family-friendly atmosphere, today reported financial results for the quarter ended July 12, 2020.
Second Quarter 2020 Financial Summary Compared to Second Quarter 2019
•Total revenues were $161.1 million, a decrease of 47.7%, primarily resulting from our operational shift in response to COVID-19, including limited occupant capacity as we reopen dining rooms, operating an off-premise only model at our restaurants with closed dining rooms, and closed restaurants;
•Comparable restaurant revenue decreased 41.4%;
•Comparable average Guest check decreased 2.9%, resulting from a 5.7% decrease from menu mix, partially offset by a 2.2% increase in pricing and a 0.6% increase from lower discounting;
•Comparable restaurant Guest counts decreased 38.5%;
•Off-premise sales increased 208.7% and comprised 63.8% of total food and beverage sales;
•GAAP loss per diluted share was $4.09 compared to GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.08;
•Adjusted loss per diluted share was $3.31 compared to adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.03 (see Schedule I);
•Net loss was $56.3 million compared to net income of $1.0 million; and
•Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of $15.3 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $25.5 million (see Schedule III).
Paul J.B. Murphy III, Red Robin's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are accelerating the transformation of our business through exceptional hospitality and uncompromising health and safety standards, despite the challenges created by the recent surge in COVID-19 cases and localized, renewed mandates to re-close dining rooms. In addition to generating sequential improvement in average weekly net sales per restaurant over the last five weeks, our record-high dine-in and off-premise satisfaction scores validate our consistent, quality execution as we build trust and affinity within our communities.”
Murphy continued, “Having strengthened our liquidity through our recent equity raise of almost $30 million, we are managing our business prudently while continuing to progress the foundational pillars in our previously articulated strategic plan to create long-term value for our shareholders. This plan includes executing our TGX hospitality model, implementing Donatos® Pizza in our restaurants, and improving our digital experience to drive increased Guest engagement and frequency.”
Second Quarter 2020 Operating Results
Total revenues, which primarily include Company-owned restaurant revenue and franchise royalties, decreased 47.7% to $161.1 million in the second quarter of 2020, from $308.0 million in the second quarter of 2019. Restaurant revenue decreased $142.3 million due to a $112.8 million decrease in comparable restaurant revenue(1) and a $29.5 million decrease primarily from closed restaurants. The decrease in comparable restaurant revenue was driven by restaurants operating at no higher than 50% occupant capacity for dining rooms that have reopened during the quarter or off-premise only for restaurants with closed dining rooms.
System-wide restaurant revenue (which includes franchised restaurants) for the second quarter of 2020 totaled $200.4 million, compared to $366.4 million for the second quarter of 2019. Due to the effects of COVID-19 on Red Robin's franchise operations, we temporarily abated franchise royalty payments and advertising contributions effective March 20, 2020. During the latter half of our second fiscal quarter, however, we resumed charging and collecting partial royalty payments and advertising contributions from our franchisees. Abated royalty payments and advertising contributions will not be collected by the Company.
Comparable restaurant revenue(1) decreased 41.4% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same period a year ago, driven by a 38.5% decrease in Guest count and a 2.9% decrease in average Guest check. The decrease in Guest count was primarily driven by a 36.2% decrease from the COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease in average Guest check resulted from a 5.7% decrease in menu mix, partially offset by a 2.2% increase in pricing and a 0.6% increase from lower discounting. The decrease in menu mix was primarily driven by limited dining room capacity at re-opened restaurants and operating off-premise only at restaurants with closed dining rooms, resulting in lower sales of beverages and Finest burgers.
Net loss was $56.3 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to net income of $1.0 million for the same period a year ago. Adjusted net loss (a non-GAAP financial measure) was $45.5 million for the second quarter of 2020 compared to adjusted net income of $13.4 million for the same period a year ago (see Schedule I).
Restaurant-level operating profit as a percentage of restaurant revenue (a non-GAAP financial measure) was 2.0% in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 18.2% in the same period a year ago. Cost of sales as a percentage of restaurant revenue increased 30 basis points resulting from an increase in ground beef prices, partially offset by discounts and lower waste. Restaurant labor costs as a percentage of restaurant revenue increased 400 basis points primarily due to sales deleverage and higher hourly wage and benefit rates driven by shifting labor mix in support of our off-premise operating model, partially offset by lower restaurant manager incentive compensation. Other restaurant operating costs as a percentage of restaurant revenue increased 730 basis points primarily due to an increase in third-party delivery fees driven by higher off-premise sales volumes and sales deleverage impacts on restaurant supply, utility, and technology costs, partially offset by a decrease in restaurant maintenance costs. Occupancy costs as a percentage of restaurant revenue increased 460 basis points primarily due to sales deleverage impacts on rent expense and other real estate costs. Schedule II of this earnings release defines restaurant-level operating profit, discusses why it is a useful metric for investors, and reconciles this metric to income from operations and net income, the most directly comparable GAAP metrics.
(1) Comparable restaurants are those Company-owned restaurants that have operated five full quarters during the period presented, and such restaurants are only included in the comparable metrics if they have operated for the entirety of both periods presented.

Other Results
Depreciation and amortization costs decreased to $20.6 million in the second quarter of 2020 from $21.4 million in the second quarter of 2019.
General and administrative costs were $14.1 million, or 8.8% of total revenues, in the second quarter of 2020, compared to $21.8 million, or 7.1% of total revenues, in the same period a year ago. The decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in Team Member salaries and wages from the reduction in force and temporary salary reductions and a decrease in Team Member benefits, travel and entertainment, and professional services costs.
Selling expenses were $5.6 million, or 3.4% of total revenues, in the second quarter of 2020, compared to $13.4 million, or 4.4% of total revenues, during the same period a year ago. The decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in national and local media spend and gift card related costs.
Other charges in the second quarter of 2020 included $7.6 million of restaurant closure and refranchising costs, $5.3 million of restaurant asset impairment, $1.0 million of board and stockholder matters costs, and $0.7 million of COVID-19 related costs related to the purchase of personal protective equipment for our Team Members and Guests and emergency sick pay provided to restaurant Team Members during the pandemic.
The Company had an effective tax rate of 7.0% in the second quarter of 2020, compared to an effective tax benefit of 106.5% in the same period a year ago. The effective tax rate for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 12, 2020 was 7.7%, compared to a 110.9% benefit for the same period in 2019. The increase in tax expense is primarily due to a decrease in current year tax credits and the recognition of a valuation allowance on the Company's tax credit deferred tax asset, partially offset by a decrease in income and a favorable rate impact of net operating loss carrybacks allowed as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act, which could generate projected cash tax refunds in the range of $14 million to $17 million within the next 12 months.
Loss per diluted share for the second quarter of 2020 was $4.09 compared to earnings per diluted share of $0.08 in the second quarter of 2019. Excluding costs per diluted share included in Other charges of $0.41 for restaurant closure and refranchising costs, $0.28 for restaurant asset impairment, $0.05 for board and stockholder matters costs, and $0.04 for COVID-19 related costs, adjusted loss per diluted share for the second quarter ended July 12, 2020 was $3.31. Excluding costs per diluted share included in Other charges of $0.80 for restaurant asset impairment, $0.07 for board and stockholder matters costs, $0.05 for restaurant closure and refranchising costs, $0.02 for severance and executive transition, and $0.01 for executive retention, adjusted earnings per diluted share for the second quarter ended July 14, 2019 was $1.03. See Schedule I for a reconciliation of adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share (each, a non-GAAP financial measure) to net income and earnings per share.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity
As of July 12, 2020, the Company had total debt of $207.5 million, of which $9.7 million was classified as current. The Company made net repayments of $83.4 million on its credit facility during the second quarter of 2020. As of July 12, 2020, the Company had outstanding borrowings under its credit facility of $206.6 million, in addition to amounts issued under letters of credit of $7.5 million. Amounts issued under letters of credit reduce the amount available under the credit facility but are not recorded as debt. As of July 12, 2020, the Company had approximately $107.2 million in total liquidity including cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity under our revolving line of credit. The average cash burn rate for the second quarter of 2020 was approximately $1 million per week.
On January 10, 2020, the Company replaced its credit facility with a new five-year Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") which provides for a $161.5 million revolving line of credit and a $138.5 million term loan for a total borrowing capacity of $300 million. The Credit Agreement is included as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 13, 2020.
On May 29, 2020, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Waiver (the "Amendment") that waived compliance of the lease adjusted leverage ratio financial covenant and fixed charge coverage ratio financial covenant for the first and second quarters of 2020, and it waives compliance for the remainder of fiscal 2020 and sets forth adjusted covenant ratios for fiscal year 2021 provided the Company issued new equity (or convertible debt) generating net cash proceeds of at least $25 million on or before November 13, 2020. The equity issuance requirement of the Amendment was satisfied on June 17, 2020 when the Company issued 2.6 million shares of common stock raising proceeds of $28.7 million, net of stock issuance costs, through its at-the-market equity offering. The Amendment was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 29, 2020.
As of August 9, 2020, the Company had more than $103 million in total liquidity, including cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity under our revolving line of credit. We currently expect an average cash burn of approximately $2 million per week for the third fiscal quarter, including the impact of increased occupancy payments compared to the second quarter.
COVID-19 Business Update
Since the release of our first quarter earnings, net comparable restaurant revenue and average net sales per company-owned restaurant through the week ended August 9, 2020 is as follows:

Restaurants with Open Indoor Dining Rooms
As of August 9, 2020, the Company has re-opened 346 indoor dining rooms with limited capacity, representing approximately 84% of currently open Company-owned restaurants. Notably, these restaurants have on average maintained off-premise sales that are approximately 40% of sales mix after re-opening dining rooms. As dining rooms have re-opened, the Company has continued to focus on the mutual health and safety of our Guests and Team Members. In addition to the health and safety measures implemented in the first quarter of 2020, we recently began expanding outdoor seating beyond restaurant patios where possible, piloting partitions between tables in our dining rooms, requiring Guests to wear face coverings in all locations, while entering, exiting, and walking around the restaurant, and providing face masks to Guests who arrive at our restaurants without one.
The Company has been required to re-close dining rooms since the release of our first quarter earnings at numerous Company-owned restaurants, including 53 indoor dining rooms in California due to a state mandate in early July, from the effects of increased COVID-19 cases in certain states and localities. Since these closures in early July, our average weekly net sales per restaurant has increased through the week ended August 9, 2020 even as these indoor dining rooms have remained closed.
Net comparable restaurant revenue and average net sales per Company-owned restaurant with re-opened indoor dining rooms through the week ended August 9, 2020 is as follows:

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Results to GAAP Results
(In thousands, except per share data, unaudited)
In addition to the results provided in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") throughout this press release, the Company has provided non-GAAP measurements which present the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 12, 2020, and July 14, 2019, net income and basic and diluted earnings per share, excluding the effects of goodwill impairment, restaurant asset impairment, litigation contingencies, board and stockholder matters costs, restaurant closure and refranchising costs, severance and executive transition costs, COVID-19 related costs, executive retention costs, and related income tax effects. The Company believes the presentation of net income and earnings per share exclusive of the identified item gives the reader additional insight into the ongoing operational results of the Company. This supplemental information will assist with comparisons of past and future financial results against the present financial results presented herein. Income tax effect of reconciling items was calculated based on the change in the total tax provision calculation after adjusting for the identified item. The non-GAAP measurements are intended to supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP.

Schedule II
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Restaurant-Level Operating Profit to Loss
from Operations and Net (Loss) Income
(In thousands, unaudited)
The Company believes 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 revenue minus restaurant-level operating costs, excluding restaurant impairment and closure costs. The measure includes restaurant-level occupancy costs that 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 related to restaurant equipment, buildings and leasehold improvements. 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 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, similar to 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 GAAP and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative, to income from operations or net income as indicators of financial performance. Restaurant-level operating profit as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in the Company's industry. The table below sets forth certain unaudited information for the twelve and twenty-eight weeks ended July 12, 2020 and July 14, 2019, expressed as a percentage of total revenues, except for the components of restaurant-level operating profit that are expressed as a percentage of restaurant revenue.

Schedule III
Reconciliation of Net (Loss) Income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
(In thousands, unaudited)
The Company defines EBITDA as net (loss) income before interest expense, benefit for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are presented because the Company believes investors’ understanding of its performance is enhanced by including these non-GAAP financial measures as a reasonable basis for evaluating its ongoing results of operations excluding the effects of goodwill impairment, restaurant asset impairment, litigation contingencies, board and stockholder matters costs, restaurant closure and refranchising costs, severance and executive transition costs, COVID-19 related costs, and executive retention costs. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are supplemental measures of operating performance that do not represent and should not be considered as alternatives to net (loss) income or cash flow from operations, as determined by GAAP, and the Company's calculation thereof may not be comparable to that reported by other companies in its industry or otherwise. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA to reflect the additions and eliminations shown in the table below. The use of adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure permits a comparative assessment of our operating performance relative to the Company's performance based on its GAAP results, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly-titled measures of other companies, and the Company's presentation of adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that its future results will be unaffected by excluded or unusual items. The Company has not provided a reconciliation of its adjusted EBITDA outlook to the most comparable GAAP measure of net income. Providing net income guidance is potentially misleading and not practical given the difficulty of projecting event-driven transactional and other non-core operating items that are included in net income, including asset impairments and income tax valuation adjustments. The reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income for the historical periods presented below are indicative of the reconciliations that will be prepared upon completion of the periods covered by the non-GAAP guidance.
