PART I
General
Rave Restaurant Group, Inc., through its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “we,” “us” or “our”) franchise pizza buffet (“Buffet Units”), delivery/carry-out (“Delco Units”) and express (“Express Units”) restaurants under the trademark “Pizza Inn” and franchises fast casual pizza restaurants (“Pie Five
Units”) under the trademarks “Pie Five Pizza Company” or “Pie Five”. The Company also licenses Pizza Inn Express, or PIE, kiosks (“PIE Units”) under the trademark “Pizza Inn”. We facilitate food, equipment and supply distribution to our domestic
and international system of restaurants through agreements with third party distributors.
As of June 26, 2022, we had 150 franchised Pizza Inn restaurants, 31 franchised Pie Five Units, and 9 licensed PIE Units. The 119
domestic franchised Pizza Inn restaurants were comprised of 72 Buffet Units, 10 Delco Units and 37 Express Units. As of June 26, 2022, there were 31 international franchised Pizza Inn restaurants. Domestic Pizza Inn restaurants and kiosks were
located predominantly in the southern half of the United States, with Texas, Arkansas, North Carolina and Mississippi accounting for approximately 23%, 22%, 13% and 9%, respectively, of the total number of domestic units.
Our History
The Company has offered consumers affordable, high quality pizza since 1958, when the first Pizza Inn restaurant opened in Dallas, Texas.
We awarded our first franchise in 1963 and opened our first buffet restaurant in 1969. We began franchising the Pizza Inn brand internationally in the late 1970s. In 1993, our stock began trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market, and presently trades
on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the ticker symbol “RAVE.” In June 2011, we opened the first Pie Five restaurant in Ft. Worth, Texas. In November 2012, we signed our first franchise development agreement for Pie Five. In 2019, we launched the
PIE kiosk and convenience store solution to meet the consumer demand for tasty and high-quality pizzas within a grab-and-go delivery model.
Our Concepts
We operate and franchise restaurant concepts under two distinct brands: Pizza Inn and Pie Five.
Pizza Inn
We franchise Buffet Units, Delco Units and Express Units under the Pizza Inn brand. Additionally, we license PIE Units under the Pizza Inn brand. Buffet Units and Delco Units
feature crusts that are hand-made from dough made fresh in the restaurant each day. Our pizzas are made with a proprietary all-in-one flour mixture, real mozzarella cheese and a proprietary mix of classic pizza spices. In international markets,
the menu mix of toppings and side items is occasionally adapted to local tastes.
Buffet Units offer dine-in, carryout and catering service and, in many cases, also offer delivery service. Buffet Units offer a variety of pizza crusts with
standard toppings and special combinations of toppings in addition to pasta, salad, sandwiches, appetizers, desserts and beverages, including beer and wine in some locations, in an informal, family-oriented atmosphere. We occasionally offer
other items on a limited promotional basis. Buffet Units are generally located in free standing buildings or strip center locations in retail developments near offices, shopping centers and residential areas. The current standard Buffet Units
are between 2,100 and 4,500 square feet in size and seat 120 to 185 customers. The interior decor is designed to promote a casual, lively, contemporary, family-style atmosphere. Some Buffet Units feature game rooms that offer a range of
electronic game entertainment for the entire family.
Delco Units offer delivery and carryout service only and are typically located in shopping centers or other in-line retail developments.
Delco Units typically offer a variety of crusts and some combination of side items. Delco Units occupy approximately 1,200 square feet, are primarily production facilities and, in most instances, do not offer seating. The decor of the Delco Unit
is designed to be bright and highly visible and feature neon lighted displays and awnings. We have attempted to locate Delco Units strategically to facilitate timely delivery service and to provide easy access for carryout service.
Express Units serve our customers through a variety of non-traditional points of sale. Express Units are typically located in a
convenience store, food court, college campus, airport terminal, travel plaza, athletic facility or other commercial facility. They have limited or no seating and solely offer quick carryout service of a limited menu of pizza and other foods and
beverages. An Express Unit typically occupies approximately 200 to 400 square feet and is commonly operated by the operator or food service licensee of the commercial host facility. We have developed a high-quality pre-prepared crust that is
topped and cooked on-site, allowing this concept to offer a lower initial investment and reduced labor and operating costs while maintaining product quality and consistency. Like Delco Units, Express Units are primarily
production-oriented facilities and, therefore, do not require all of the equipment, labor or square footage of the Buffet Unit.
PIE Units serve customers through a non-traditional, licensed pizza-only model called Pizza Inn Express. Like Delco Units and Express Units, the PIE Units are primarily
production-oriented facilities and, therefore, do not require all of the equipment, labor or square footage of the Buffet Unit. The Company does not intend to open additional PIE Units in the foreseeable future.
Pie Five
Pie Five is a fast-casual pizza concept that creates individualized pizzas which are baked in our specially designed oven. Pizzas are created at the direction of our customers who
choose from a variety of freshly prepared and displayed proprietary and non-proprietary toppings, cheeses, sauces and doughs. Customers can also get freshly prepared side salads, also made to order from our recipes or at the customer’s direction.
They can also choose from several baked daily desserts like brownies, cookie pies, and cakes. A variety of soft beverages are available, as well as beer and wine in some locations.
Traditional Pie Five restaurants typically occupy leased, in-line or end-cap space of between 1,800 and 2,400 square feet in retail strip or multi-unit retail space. With seating
for 65 to 85 customers in most units, and patio seating where available, Pie Five restaurants primarily serve lunch and dinner to families, adults and kids of all ages. Pie Five restaurants typically are in high traffic, high visibility urban or
suburban sites in mid to large-size metropolitan areas. Sales are predominantly on-premise though carry out and delivery are offered as well. Due to the relatively compact footprint of the restaurants, and other operating advantages, we believe
Pie Five is also well suited for non-traditional locations such as airports.
Site Selection
We consider the restaurant site selection process critical to a restaurant’s long-term success and devote significant resources to the investigation and evaluation of potential
sites. The site selection process includes a review of trade area demographics using a third-party customer and site selection tool, as well as a proprietary evaluation process. We may also rely on a franchisee’s knowledge of the trade area and
market characteristics when selecting a location for a franchised restaurant. A member of our development team visits each potential domestic restaurant location.
Development and Operations
New Unit Development
We intend to expand the Pizza Inn system domestically and internationally in markets with significant long-term growth potential and where we believe we can use our competitive
strengths to establish brand recognition and gain local market share. We plan to expand our Pizza Inn branded domestic restaurant base primarily through opening new franchised restaurants with new and existing franchisees. We expect to evaluate
the continued development of new Pizza Inn Buffet and Delco Units in international markets in fiscal 2023, particularly in the Middle East.
The Company previously granted area developer rights for Pizza Inn restaurants in existing domestic markets. However, the Company is no longer pursuing such agreements. A Pizza Inn
area developer typically paid a negotiated fee to purchase the right to operate or develop restaurants within a defined territory and agreed to a multi-restaurant development schedule. The area developer assisted us in local franchise service and
quality control in exchange for half of the franchise fees and royalties from all restaurants within the territory during the term of the agreement.
We intend to continue developing franchised Pie Five Units domestically and internationally. The rate at which we will be able to continue to expand the Pie Five concept through
franchise development is determined in part by our success at selecting qualified franchisees, by our ability to identify satisfactory sites in appropriate markets and by our ability to continue training and monitoring our franchisees. We intend to
continue to focus on franchise development opportunities with experienced, well-capitalized, restaurant operators. In addition, we intend to take the brand into international markets.

Since the Pizza Inn concept was first franchised in 1963, industry franchising concepts and development strategies have evolved, and our present franchise relationships are
evidenced by a variety of contractual forms. Common to those forms are provisions that: (i) require the franchisee to follow the Pizza Inn system of restaurant operation and management, (ii) require the franchisee to pay a franchise fee,
contribute a specified percentage of sales to a marketing fund managed by the Company, and pay continuing royalties, and (iii) except for Express Units, prohibit the development of one restaurant within a specified distance from another.
We launched the franchise program for Pie Five in fiscal 2013. Our Pie Five franchise agreement requires that the franchisees: (i) follow the Pie Five system of restaurant
operation and management, (ii) pay a franchise fee and continuing royalties, (iii) contribute a specified percentage of sales to a marketing fund managed by the Company, and (iv) only open restaurants that comply with site and design standards
determined by the Company.
Training. We offer numerous training programs for the benefit of franchisees and their restaurant crew managers. The training programs,
taught by experienced Company employees, focus on food preparation, service, cost control, sanitation, safety, local store marketing, personnel management and other aspects of restaurant operation. The training programs include group classes,
supervised work in restaurants and special field seminars. Initial and certain supplemental training programs are offered free of charge to franchisees, who pay their own travel and lodging expenses. New franchisees also receive on-site training
from Company employees to assist with their first two restaurant openings under their development agreements. Restaurant managers train their staff through on-the-job training, utilizing video and printed materials produced by us.
Standards. We require franchisee adherence to a variety of standards designed to ensure proper operations and to protect and enhance the
Pizza Inn and Pie Five brands. All franchisees are required to operate their restaurants in compliance with these written policies, standards and specifications, which include matters such as menu items, ingredients, materials, supplies, services,
furnishings, decor and signs. Our efforts to maintain consistent operations may result, from time to time, in the closing of certain restaurants that have not achieved and maintained a consistent standard of quality or operations. We also maintain
adherence to our standards through ongoing support and education of our franchisees by our franchise business consultants, who are deployed locally in markets where our franchisees are located.
Domestic Kiosk License Operations
Kiosk license agreements. Our PIE Units are typically offered for five-year initial license periods with options for additional five year
renewals. PIE Unit licensees are not charged development fees, license fees, royalties, or advertising assessments. PIE Unit license agreements require that the licensee comply with standards of the Pizza Inn brand, including marketing, kiosk
system configuration, and sales and sourcing of authorized products and services. The mandated products and sourcing provisions within the PIE Unit licensing agreement result in supplier rebates for the Company.
Training. New licensees and their PIE Unit employees must attend and successfully complete our training program, which consists of a
single day of training at the licensed location. PIE Unit managers train their staff through on-the-job training, utilizing video and printed materials produced by us.
Standards. We require licensee adherence to a variety of standards designed to ensure proper operations and to protect and enhance the
Pizza Inn brand. All licensees are required to operate their kiosks in compliance with these written policies, standards and specifications, which include matters such as menu items, ingredients, materials, supplies, services, furnishings, decor
and signs. Our efforts to maintain consistent operations may result, from time to time, in the closing of certain kiosks that have not achieved and maintained a consistent standard of quality or operations. We also maintain adherence to our
standards through ongoing support and education of our licensees by our franchise business consultants, who are deployed locally in markets where our licensees are located.
Company-Owned Restaurant Operations
As of June 26, 2022, we did not operate any Company-owned restaurants. We presently intend to open and operate Company-owned restaurants in the future.
International Franchise Operations
We also offer master license rights to develop Pizza Inn and Pie Five restaurants in certain foreign countries, with negotiated fees, development schedules and ongoing royalties. A
master licensee for a foreign country pays a negotiated fee to purchase the right to develop and operate restaurants within a defined territory, typically for a term of 20 years, plus a ten-year renewal option. The master licensee agrees to a
multi-restaurant development schedule and we train the master licensee to monitor and assist franchisees in their territory with local service and quality control, with support from us. In return, the master licensee typically retains half the
franchise fees and half the royalties on all restaurants within the territory during the term of the agreement. Master licensees may open restaurants that they own and operate, or they may open sub-franchised restaurants owned and operated by
third parties through agreements with the master licensee, but subject to our approval.
Our first franchised Pizza Inn restaurant outside of the United States opened in the late 1970s. As of June 26, 2022, there were 31 Pizza
Inn restaurants operating internationally. Except for three restaurants in Honduras, all of the Pizza Inn restaurants operated or sub-licensed by our international master licensees are in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and adjoining
countries. Our ability to continue to develop select international markets is affected by a number of factors, including our ability to locate experienced, well-capitalized developers who can commit to an aggressive multi-restaurant development
schedule and achieve maximum initial market penetration with minimal supervision by us.
Food and Supply Distribution
Our franchisees and licensees purchase food and supplies directly from authorized, reputable, and experienced supply and distribution companies. The Company provides sourcing,
quality assurance, and research and development for both the Pizza Inn and Pie Five systems. The authorized distributors make deliveries to all domestic units from several distribution centers, with delivery territories and responsibilities for
each determined according to geographical region. As a franchisor, the Company is able to leverage the advantages of direct vendor negotiations and volume purchasing of food, equipment and supplies for the franchisees’ and licensees’ benefit in
the form of a concentrated, one-truck delivery system, competitive pricing and product consistency. Franchisees and licensees are able to source all products and ingredients from authorized distributors. In order to assure product quality and
consistency, our franchisees and licensees are required to purchase from authorized distributors certain food products that are proprietary to the Pizza Inn and Pie Five systems, including cheese, pizza sauce, flour mixture, certain meats and spice
blend. Franchisees and licensees may purchase other non-proprietary food products and supplies either from authorized distributors or from other suppliers who meet our requirements for quality and reliability.
Non-proprietary food and ingredients, equipment and other supplies are generally available from several qualified sources. With the exception of several proprietary food products,
such as cheese and dough flour, we are not dependent upon any one supplier or a limited group of suppliers. We contract with established food processors for the production of our proprietary products according to our specifications.
We have not experienced any significant shortages of supplies or any delays in receiving our food or beverage inventories, restaurant supplies or products, but disruption of supply
chains as a result of COVID-19 or other factors could cause difficulty in obtaining inventories or supplies in the future. Prices charged by our suppliers are subject to fluctuation, and franchisees and licensees bear increased costs or benefit
from savings through changes in product pricing. We do not engage in commodity hedging but enter into pricing arrangements for up to a year in advance for certain high-volume products.
Marketing and Advertising
By communicating a common brand message at the regional, local market and restaurant levels, we believe we can create and reinforce a strong, consistent marketing message to
consumers and increase our market share. We offer or facilitate several ways for the brand image and message to be promoted at the local and regional levels.
Pizza Inn and Pie Five franchisees contribute a specified percentage of their sales to the Company to fund the creation and production of various marketing and advertising programs
and materials, which may include print and digital advertisements, direct mail materials, customer satisfaction systems, social media and e-mail marketing, television and radio commercials, in-store promotional materials, marketing and public
relations services, and consumer research. We anticipate continuing to optimize Pizza Inn and Pie Five marketing activities commensurate with the contributions of the marketing funds.
Pizza Inn and Pie Five franchisees are required to conduct independent marketing efforts in addition to their participation in the national marketing programs for each brand. We
provide franchised restaurants with access to an assortment of local store marketing materials, including pre-approved print, radio, and digital media marketing materials. We also provide local store marketing materials and programs specifically
to support new restaurant openings.
Trademarks and Quality Control
We own various trademarks, including the names “Pizza Inn” and “Pie Five,” that are used in connection with the restaurants and have been registered with the United States Patent
and Trademark Office. The duration of our trademarks is unlimited, subject to periodic renewal and continued use. In addition, we have obtained trademark registrations for our marks in several foreign countries and have periodically re-filed and
applied for registration in others. We believe that we hold the necessary rights for protection of the trademarks essential to our business.
Government Regulation
We and our franchisees are subject to various federal, state and local laws affecting the operation of our restaurants. Each restaurant is subject to licensing and regulation by
several governmental authorities, which include health, safety, sanitation, wage and hour, alcoholic beverage, building and fire agencies in the state and municipality in which the restaurant is located. Difficulties in obtaining, or the failure
to obtain, required licenses or approvals could delay or prevent the opening of a new restaurant or require the temporary or permanent closing of an existing restaurant in a particular area.
We are subject to Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) regulations and to various state laws regulating the offer and sale of franchises. The FTC requires us to furnish to prospective
franchisees a franchise disclosure document containing prescribed information. Substantive state laws that regulate the franchisor-franchisee relationship presently exist in a number of states, and bills have been introduced in Congress from time
to time that would provide for further federal regulation of the franchisor-franchisee relationship in certain respects. Some foreign countries also have disclosure requirements and other laws regulating franchising and the franchisor-franchisee
relationship.
Employees
As of June 26, 2022, we had 24 employees. None of our employees are currently covered by collective bargaining agreements.
Industry and Competition
The restaurant industry is intensely competitive with respect to price, service, location and food quality, and there are many well-established competitors with substantially
greater brand recognition and financial and other resources than the Company. Competitors include a number of international, national and regional restaurant and pizza chains, as well as local restaurants and pizza operators. Some of our
competitors may be better established in the markets where our restaurants are or may be located. Within the pizza segment of the restaurant industry, we believe that our primary competitors are national pizza chains and several regional chains.
We also compete against the frozen pizza products available at grocery stores and large superstore retailers. In recent years, several competitors have developed fast-casual pizza concepts that compete with Pie Five in certain metropolitan areas.
A change in the pricing or other market strategies of one or more of our competitors could have an adverse impact on our sales and earnings.
With respect to the sale of franchises and licenses, we compete with many franchisors of restaurants and other business concepts. We believe that the principal competitive factors
affecting the sale of franchises are product quality, price, value, consumer acceptance, franchisor experience and support, and the quality of the relationship maintained between the franchisor and its franchisees. In general, there is also active
competition for management personnel and attractive commercial real estate sites suitable for our restaurants.

Results of operations for the fiscal years 2022 and 2021 both included 52 weeks.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, and the disease spread rapidly throughout the United States
and the world. Federal, state and local responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as our internal efforts to protect customers, franchisees and employees, severely disrupted our business operations. Most of the domestic Pizza Inn buffet
restaurants and Pie Five restaurants are in areas that were for varying periods subject to “shelter-in-place” and social distancing restrictions prohibiting in-store sales and, therefore, were limited to carry-out and/or delivery orders. In some
areas, these restrictions limited non-essential movement outside the home, which discouraged or even precluded carry-out orders. Further, the COVID-19 pandemic precipitated significant job losses and a national economic downturn that impacted the
demand for restaurant food service. Although most of our domestic restaurants continued to operate under these conditions, we have experienced temporary closures from time to time during the pandemic. In most cases, in-store dining has now
resumed subject to seating capacity limitations, social distancing protocols, and enhanced cleaning and disinfecting practices.
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in dramatically reduced aggregate in-store retail sales at Buffet Units and Pie Five Units, modestly offset by increased aggregate carry-out and
delivery sales. The decreased aggregate retail sales have correspondingly decreased supplier rebates and franchise royalties payable to the Company.
We expect that Buffet Units and Pie Five Units will continue to be subject to capacity restrictions for some time as social distancing protocols remain in place. Additionally, an
outbreak or perceived outbreak of COVID-19 connected to restaurant dining could cause negative publicity directed at any of our brands and cause customers to avoid our restaurants. We cannot predict how long the pandemic will last or whether it
will reoccur, what additional restrictions may be enacted, to what extent off-premises dining will continue, or if individuals will be comfortable returning to our Buffet Units and Pie Five Units. Any of these changes could materially adversely
affect the Company’s future financial performance. However, the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our future results of operations and liquidity cannot presently be predicted.

Pizza Inn total domestic retail sales increased by $17.9 million, or 25.6% compared to the prior year. The increase in domestic retail sales was primarily the result of a moderation
in the impact of COVID-19. Pizza Inn domestic comparable store retail sales increased by $16.6 million, or 24.7%, for the same reason.

The net decrease of seven domestic units was primarily due to declines in Delco and PIE units. We believe that this trend of net domestic store closures is moderating and will
reverse in future periods. The net decrease of one international Pizza Inn unit was primarily due to closure of locations in Kuwait partially offset by new units in the Middle East. We believe that this represents a
stabilizing of international unit count.

Pie Five domestic total retail sales increased $2.6 million, or 14.5%, compared to the prior year despite average units open in the period
decreasing to 32 from 37 the prior year. Comparable store retail sales increased by $2.8 million, or 17.1% during fiscal 2022 compared to the prior year. The improvement in both total
retail sales and comparable store retail sales was primarily the result of a moderation in the impact of COVID-19.

The net decrease of two Pie Five units during fiscal 2022 was primarily the result of the closure of poor-performing units, which we
believe provides us a stronger foundation for future brand growth. We believe that this trend of net store closures will moderate and then reverse in future periods.

We closed our single remaining Company-owned Pie Five restaurant during the third quarter of fiscal 2020.
Loss from continuing operations before taxes for Company-owned Pie Five stores decreased to $0.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 26, 2022 compared to the same period of the prior year primarily due to the closure of all remaining Company-owned restaurants. Operating cash flow from Company-owned Pie Five
restaurants remained essentially flat in fiscal 2022.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Terms
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, the Company also presents and discusses
certain non-GAAP financial measures that it believes are useful to investors as measures of operating performance. Management may also use such non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the effectiveness of business strategies and for planning and
budgeting purposes. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as an alternative or substitute for the results reflected in the Company’s GAAP financial statements.
We consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be important supplemental measures of operating performance that are commonly used by securities analysts, investors and other parties
interested in our industry. We believe that EBITDA is helpful to investors in evaluating our results of operations without the impact of expenses affected by financing methods, accounting methods and the tax environment. We believe that Adjusted
EBITDA provides additional useful information to investors by excluding non-operational or non-recurring expenses to provide a measure of operating performance that is more comparable from period to period. We believe that restaurant operating cash
flow is a useful metric to investors in evaluating the ongoing operating performance of Company-owned restaurants and comparing such store operating performance from period to period. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures for
evaluating operating performance, assessing the effectiveness of business strategies, projecting future capital needs, budgeting and other planning purposes.
The following key performance indicators presented herein, some of which represent non-GAAP financial measures, have the meaning and are calculated as follows:
|
• |
“EBITDA” represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
|
|
• |
“Adjusted EBITDA” represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, severance, gain/loss on sale of assets, costs related to impairment and other lease charges,
franchisee default and closed store revenue/expense, and closed and non-operating store costs.
|
|
• |
“Retail sales” represents the restaurant sales reported by our franchisees and Company-owned restaurants, which may be segmented by brand or domestic/international locations.
|
|
• |
“Comparable store retail sales” includes the retail sales for restaurants that have been open for at least 18 months as of the end of the reporting period. The sales results for a restaurant that was closed
temporarily for remodeling or relocation within the same trade area are included in the calculation only for the days that the restaurant was open in both periods being compared.
|
|
• |
“Store weeks” represent the total number of full weeks that specified restaurants were open during the period.
|
|
• |
“Average units open” reflects the number of restaurants open during a reporting period weighted by the percentage of the weeks in a reporting period that each restaurant was open.
|
|
• |
“Average weekly sales” for a specified period is calculated as total retail sales (excluding partial weeks) divided by store weeks in the period.
|
|
• |
“Restaurant operating cash flow” represents the pre-tax income earned by Company-owned restaurants before (1) allocated marketing and advertising expenses, (2) depreciation and amortization, (3) impairment and
other lease charges, and (4) non-operating store costs.
|
|
• |
“Non-operating store costs” represent gain or loss on asset disposal, store closure expenses, lease termination expenses and expenses related to abandoned store sites.
|
|
• |
“Franchisee default and closed store revenue/expense” represents the net of accelerated revenues and costs attributable to defaulted area development agreements and closed franchised stores.

Revenues:
Revenues are derived from franchise royalties, franchise fees and supplier and distributer incentives, advertising funds, area development
exclusivity fees and foreign master license fees, supplier convention funds, sublease rental income, interest and other income, and sales by Company-owned restaurants. The volume of supplier incentive revenues is dependent on the level of
chain-wide retail sales, which are impacted by changes in comparable store sales and restaurant count, as well as the products sold to franchisees through third-party food distributors. Total revenues for fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 were $10.7
million and $8.6 million, respectively.
Pizza Inn Franchise and License Revenues
Pizza Inn franchise revenues increased by $1.9 million to $8.5 million in fiscal 2022 compared to $6.6 million in fiscal 2021. The 29.7%
increase was primarily the result of a moderation in the impact of COVID-19.
Pie Five Franchise and License Revenues
Pie Five franchise revenues increased by $0.2 million to $2.0 million for fiscal 2022 compared to $1.8 million for fiscal 2021. The 8.3%
increase was primarily the result of a moderation in the impact of COVID-19.
Restaurant Sales
We had no restaurant sales, which consist of revenue generated by Company-owned restaurants, in fiscal 2022 or fiscal 2021 because we
closed our single remaining Company-owned restaurant during the third quarter of fiscal 2020.
Costs and Expenses:
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales primarily includes food and supply costs, labor costs, and lease costs directly related to Company-owned restaurant sales.
These costs decreased to $1 thousand for fiscal 2022 compared to $264 thousand in fiscal 2021. The decrease was primarily the result of the closure of the remaining Company-owned stores during the third quarter of fiscal 2020 partially offset by
ongoing lease costs directly related to closed Company-owned stores.
General and Administrative Expenses
Total general and administrative expenses increased to $5.4 million for fiscal 2022 compared to $4.7 million in the
prior fiscal year. The $0.7 million, or 15.6%, increase in total general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of increased employment, legal, and travel expenses.
Franchise Expenses
Franchise expenses include general and administrative expenses directly related to the sale and continuing service of domestic and
international franchises. Total franchise expenses increased $0.9 million to $3.3 million in fiscal 2022 from $2.4 million in the prior fiscal year. Pizza Inn franchise expenses increased $0.9 million to $2.3 million in fiscal 2022 compared to
$1.4 million in the prior fiscal year primarily as a result of an increase in payroll and related, advertising, and travel costs. Pie Five franchise expenses of $1.0 million in fiscal 2022 remained essentially unchanged from the prior year.
Gain on Sale of Assets
The Company’s gain on sale of assets reflects the net difference between the sale price of assets and the net carrying value of the assets
at the time of sale. Gain on sale of assets decreased to zero in fiscal 2022 compared to $10 thousand in the prior year.
Impairment Expenses
Impairment of long-lived assets and other lease charges were $6 thousand for fiscal 2022 compared to $21 thousand for fiscal 2021.
Impairment of long-lived assets and other lease charges for Company-owned restaurants was zero in fiscal 2022 compared to $21 thousand in fiscal 2021 primarily due to a reduction in lease charges for closed stores.
Bad Debt Expense
The Company monitors franchisee receivable balances and adjusts credit terms when
necessary to minimize the Company’s exposure to high risk accounts receivable. Bad debt expense decreased by $75 thousand to $46 thousand in fiscal 2022 compared to $121 thousand in fiscal 2021 primarily related to domestic accounts
receivable.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $31 thousand for fiscal 2022 to $61 thousand compared to $92 thousand in the prior year.
Amortization and Depreciation Expense
Amortization and depreciation expense increased $20 thousand to $187 thousand in fiscal 2022 compared to $167 thousand in fiscal 2021
primarily as a result of higher amortization of equipment.
Other Income
Other income represents non-recurring income that is not derived from the operations of the Company. The Company had a $0.7 million refundable employee retention tax credit during fiscal 2022
compared to $0.7 million in loan forgiveness during fiscal 2021, both of which were the result of governmental actions to mitigate the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. (See, “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Employee Retention Credit”
and “- PPP Loan,” below.) Management does not presently expect similar benefits to be available in subsequent periods.
Provision for Income Tax
For the year ended June 26, 2022, the Company recorded an
income tax benefit of $5.7 million including federal deferred tax benefit of $5.5 million and
current/deferred state tax benefit of $0.2 million. As of June 26, 2022, the Company had net operating loss
carryforwards totaling $23.1 million that are available to reduce future taxable income and will begin to expire in 2032, of which $1.8 million are limited to 80% and do not
expire.
Tax returns for fiscal 2013 and after will remain open to examination by federal and state tax authorities for three to four years following the tax year in which net operating losses or tax credits are utilized. The Company was not subject to income tax examinations by any tax authority as of June 26, 2022.
The Company continually reviews the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including an analysis of factors such as future
taxable income, reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, and tax planning strategies. In assessing the need for the valuation allowance, the Company considers both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization
of deferred tax assets. Future sources of taxable income are also considered in determining the amount of the recorded valuation allowance. The Company has reversed the full amount of the valuation allowance as of June 26, 2022. The reversal of the valuation allowance resulted in a tax benefit of $5.7 million in fiscal 2022 compared to a negligible
tax benefit in fiscal 2021.
There are no material uncertain tax positions. Management’s position is that all relevant requirements are met and necessary returns
have been filed, and therefore the tax positions taken on the tax returns would be sustained upon examination.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources and Uses of Funds
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operating activities, loan proceeds, and proceeds from the sale of securities.
Cash flows from operating activities generally reflect net income adjusted for certain non-cash items including depreciation and
amortization, changes in deferred taxes, share based compensation, and changes in working capital. Cash provided by operations was $1.4 million in fiscal 2022 compared to cash provided by operations of $1.5 million in fiscal year 2021.
Cash flows from investing activities primarily reflect net proceeds from sale of assets and capital expenditures for the
purchase of Company assets. Cash provided by investing activities was $0.3 million in fiscal 2022 compared to cash used by investing activities of $0.2 million in fiscal 2021. The $0.5
million increase in cash provided by investing activities was primarily the result of payments on notes receivable from prior sales of assets.
Cash flows from financing activities generally reflect changes in the Company’s borrowings and securities activity
during the period. Net cash used by financing activities was $2.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 26, 2022 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $3.9 million for the fiscal year June 27, 2021. The cash used by
financing activities in fiscal 2022 was primarily the result of $1.6 million used to retire all outstanding convertible notes, as well as $0.5 million used to repurchase shares of the Company’s common stock and $0.2 million used to repay a short
term loan. The cash provided by financing activities in fiscal 2021 was primarily attributable to proceeds from sales of stock in an at-the-market offering.
PPP Loan Forgiveness and Employee Retention Credit
On April 13, 2020, the Company received the proceeds from a loan in the amount of $0.7 million (the “PPP Loan”) from JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”) pursuant to the
Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The PPP Loan was unsecured by the Company and was guaranteed by the
SBA. We applied for and received a forgiveness decision in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, such that all of the PPP Loan was forgiven at that time.
On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (the “CAA”) was signed into law. The CAA expanded eligibility for an employee retention credit for companies impacted by the
COVID-19 pandemic with fewer than five hundred employees and at least a twenty percent decline in gross receipts compared to the same quarter in 2019, to encourage retention of employees. This payroll tax credit was a refundable tax credit against
certain federal employment taxes. For the fiscal year ended June 26, 2022, the Company recorded $0.7 million of other income for the employee retention credit. The Company has also benefitted from the CAA guidance to treat expenses associated with
the PPP loan forgiveness as tax deductible.
ATM Offering
On December 5, 2017, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement with B. Riley FBR, Inc. (“B. Riley FBR”) pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell shares
of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $5.0 million from time to time through B. Riley FBR acting as agent (the “2017 ATM Offering”). The 2017 ATM Offering was undertaken pursuant to Rule 415 and a shelf Registration
Statement on Form S-3 which was declared effective by the SEC on November 6, 2017. Through June 27, 2021, the Company had sold an aggregate of 3,064,342 shares in the 2017 ATM Offering, realizing aggregate gross proceeds of $4.4 million. The 2017
ATM Offering expired on November 6, 2020.
Convertible Notes
On March 3, 2017, the Company completed a registered shareholder rights offering of its 4% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2022 (“Notes”). Shareholders exercised subscription rights to purchase all 30,000 of the Notes at the par value of $100 per Note, resulting in gross offering proceeds to the Company of $3.0 million.
The Notes bore interest at the rate of 4% per annum on the principal or par value of $100 per note, payable annually in arrears on February 15 of each year, commencing February 15,
2018. Interest was payable in cash or, at the Company’s discretion, in shares of Company common stock. The Notes were secured by a pledge of all outstanding equity securities of our two primary direct operating subsidiaries. During the fiscal
year ended June 26, 2022, no Notes were converted to common shares. The Notes matured on February 15, 2022, at which time all principal and unpaid interest was paid in cash. Therefore, as of June 26, 2022, there were no Notes outstanding.
Liquidity
We expect to fund continuing operations and planned capital expenditures for the next fiscal year primarily from cash on hand and
operating cash flow. Based on budgeted and year-to-date cash flow information, we believe that we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our cash requirements for the 2023 fiscal year and beyond.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and
assumptions are reviewed periodically. Actual results could differ materially from estimates.
The Company believes the following critical accounting policies require estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, are susceptible to change, and therefore
require subjective judgments. Changes in the estimates and judgments could significantly impact the Company’s results of operations and financial condition in future periods.
Accounts receivable consist primarily of receivables generated from franchise royalties and supplier concessions. The Company records a provision for doubtful receivables to allow
for any amounts which may be unrecoverable based upon an analysis of the Company’s prior collection experience, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends. Actual realization of accounts receivable could differ materially from the
Company’s estimates.
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. Impairment is
evaluated based on the sum of undiscounted estimated future cash flows expected to result from use and eventual disposition of the assets compared to their carrying value. If impairment is indicated, the carrying value of an impaired asset is
reduced to its fair value, based on discounted estimated future cash flows. The Company recognized pre-tax, non-cash impairment charges of $6 thousand and $21 thousand during fiscal years 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company had $0.2 million in
sublease income during fiscal year 2022. The Company had lease charges related to closed units of $0.7 million partially offset by $0.2 million in sublease income during fiscal year 2021.
Franchise revenue consists of income from license fees, royalties, area development and foreign master license agreements, advertising fund revenues, supplier incentive and
convention contribution revenues. Franchise fees, area development and foreign master license agreement fees are amortized into revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the related contract agreement. Royalties and advertising fund
revenues, which are based on a percentage of franchise retail sales, are recognized as income as retail sales occur. Supplier incentive revenues are recognized as earned, typically as the underlying commodities are shipped.
The Company continually reviews the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including an analysis of factors such as future taxable income, reversal of existing taxable temporary
differences, and tax planning strategies. The Company assesses whether a valuation allowance should be established against its deferred tax assets based on consideration of all available evidence, using a “more likely than not” standard. In
assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considers both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. In making such assessment, more weight is given to evidence that can be
objectively verified, including recent losses. Future sources of taxable income are also considered in determining the amount of the recorded valuation allowance. Based on this
analysis, the Company reversed the full amount of the previous valuation allowance as of June 26, 2022.
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740-10, which prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and
disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that it has taken or expects to take on a tax return. ASC 740-10 requires that a company recognize in its financial statements the impact of tax positions that meet a “more likely than
not” threshold, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being
realized upon ultimate settlement. As of June 26, 2022 and June 27, 2021, the Company had no uncertain tax positions.
The Company assesses its exposures to loss contingencies from legal matters based upon factors such as the current status of the cases and consultations with external counsel and
provides for the exposure by accruing an amount if it is judged to be probable and can be reasonably estimated. If the actual loss from a contingency differs from management’s estimate, operating results could be adversely impacted.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the arrangement. To the extent that it can be determined that an arrangement represents a lease, it is classified as either an
operating lease or a finance lease. The Company does not currently have any finance leases. The Company capitalizes operating leases on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets through a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability.
Right of use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Short-term leases that have an initial term of
one year or less are not capitalized. The Company does not presently have any short-term leases.
Operating lease right of use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of an arrangement based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In addition to the
present value of lease payments, the operating lease right of use asset also includes any lease payments made to the lessor prior to lease commencement less any lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Lease expense for operating lease
payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Nature of Leases
The Company leases certain office space, restaurant space, and information technology equipment under non-cancelable leases to support its operations. A more detailed description of significant
lease types is included below.
Office Agreements
The Company rents office space from third parties for its corporate location. Office agreements are typically structured with non-cancelable terms of one to 10 years. The Company has concluded that
its office agreements represent operating leases with a lease term that equals the primary non-cancelable contract term. Upon completion of the primary term, both parties have substantive rights to terminate the lease. As a result, enforceable
rights and obligations do not exist under the rental agreements subsequent to the primary term.
Restaurant Space Agreements
The Company rents restaurant space from third parties for its Company-owned restaurants. Restaurant space agreements are typically structured with non-cancelable terms of one to 10 years. The
Company has concluded that its restaurant agreements represent operating leases with a lease term that equals the primary non-cancelable contract term. Upon completion of the primary term, both parties have substantive rights to terminate the
lease. As a result, enforceable rights and obligations do not exist under the rental agreements subsequent to the primary term.
The Company also subleases some of its restaurant space to third parties. The Company’s two subleases have terms that end in 2023 and 2025. The sublease agreements are noncancelable through the end
of the term and both parties have substantive rights to terminate the lease when the term is complete. Sublease agreements are not capitalized and are recorded as rental income in the period that rent is received.
As of June 26, 2022, the Company had no Company-owned restaurants.
Information Technology Equipment
The Company rents information technology equipment, primarily printers and copiers, from a third party for its corporate office location. Information technology equipment agreements are typically
structured with non-cancelable terms of one to five years. The Company has concluded that its information technology equipment commitments are operating leases.
Discount Rate
Leases typically do not provide an implicit rate. Accordingly, the Company is required to use an incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments based on the
information available at commencement date. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate reflects the estimated rate of interest that it would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a
similar economic environment. The Company uses the implicit rate in the limited circumstances in which that rate is readily determinable.
Lease Guarantees
The Company has guaranteed the financial responsibilities of certain franchised store leases. These guaranteed leases are not considered operating leases because the Company does not have the right
to control the underlying asset. If the franchisee abandons the lease and fails to meet the lease’s financial obligations, the lessor may assign the lease to the Company for the remainder of the term. If the Company does not expect to assign the
abandoned lease to a new franchisee within 12 months, the lease will be considered an operating lease and a right-of-use asset and lease liability will be recognized.
Practical Expedients and Accounting Policy Elections
Certain lease agreements include lease and non-lease components. For all existing asset classes with multiple component types, the Company has utilized the practical expedient that exempts it from
separating lease components from non-lease components. Accordingly, the Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components in an arrangement as a single lease component.
In addition, for all existing asset classes, the Company has made an accounting policy election not to apply the lease recognition requirements to short-term leases (that is, a lease that, at
commencement, has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise). Accordingly, we recognize lease payments related to our short-term leases in
our income statements on a straight-line basis over the lease term which has not changed from our prior recognition. To the extent that there are variable lease payments, we
recognize those payments in our income statements in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.
