2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, as discussed below and elsewhere through the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern exists. Please see Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, as well as Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 2, 2023 (the “2022 Form 10-K”), for further information.
BurgerFi International Inc., and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
The Company’s credit agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks has approximately $52.8 million in financing outstanding as of July 3, 2023, and expires on September 30, 2025. The Credit Agreement contains numerous covenants, including those whereby the Company is required to meet certain trailing twelve-month quarterly financial ratios and a minimum liquidity requirement. The Company was in compliance with all of the covenants under the Credit Agreement as of July 3, 2023.
As discussed in Note 8 “Commitments and Contingencies” to the consolidated financial statements included within this report, in the case of Second 82nd SM, LLC v. BF NY 82, LLC et al., the Court entered an order granting the Landlord’s Motion for Summary Judgment and ordered a damages hearing on the motion. As a result, unless the parties otherwise agree to a settlement prior to the damages hearing, the Company expects a judgment to be entered against it of at least approximately $1.2 million. The parties, however, continue to discuss possible settlement prior to the damages hearing, including re-opening the BurgerFi restaurant, as well as the payment, including timing, of past due rent amounts to the Landlord. In addition, the Company is considering other alternatives, including the need to refinance or restructure its debt, sell assets, or seek to raise additional capital, including debt or equity. If the Company is unable to implement one or more of these options or is otherwise unsuccessful in negotiating a settlement, which the Company believes is unlikely, and the court entered a final judgment against the Company, management believes it is possible that the Company will not be in compliance with certain of the financial covenants in its Credit Agreement, which would constitute a breach of the Credit Agreement and an event of default if not cured in accordance with its terms.
Any such default would allow the lenders to call the debt sooner than its maturity date of September 30, 2025. In the event that the lenders do call the debt during the next 12 months as the result of a covenant breach, the Company is not forecasted to have the readily available funds to repay the debt, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.
The Company has been and continues to be in communication with the Landlord to negotiate a settlement prior to the damages hearing and is also considering other capital raising options to address any potential judgment, as well as any issues related to meeting the covenant requirements over the next 12 months. Management cannot, however, predict the results of any such negotiations or actions.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that results from the uncertainty described above.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 3, 2023 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements as of that date. Because certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended January 2, 2023 contained in the 2022 Form 10-K.
We are required to evaluate events occurring after July 3, 2023 for recognition and disclosure in the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the quarter and six month periods ended July 3, 2023. Events are evaluated based on whether they represent information existing as of July 3, 2023, which require recognition, or new events occurring after July 3, 2023 which do not require recognition but require disclosure if the event is significant. We evaluated events occurring subsequent to July 3, 2023 through the date of issuance of these unaudited consolidated financial statements.
On July 28, 2022, our Board of Directors approved the change to a 52-53-week fiscal year ending on the Monday nearest to December 31 of each year in order to improve the alignment of financial and business processes following the acquisition of Anthony’s. Our second fiscal quarter of 2023 ended on July 3, 2023. Our current fiscal year will end on January 1, 2024. As of June 30, 2022, the BurgerFi brand operated on a calendar year-end and the Anthony’s brand operated on a 52-53-week fiscal year. Differences arising from the different fiscal period-ends were not deemed material for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year presentation to conform to the current year presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingencies at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In February 2020, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with an unrelated third party for the sale of substantially all of the assets used in connection with the operation of BF Dania Beach, LLC. The closing of this transaction has been delayed due to additional negotiation that has been on-going. In the event the transaction is terminated, the Company will begin operating this BurgerFi restaurant, and return the deposit of $0.9 million included in other current assets to the unrelated third-party purchaser. Assets used in the operations of BF Dania Beach, LLC totaling $0.7 million have been classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of July 3, 2023 and January 2, 2023. In March 2023, the Company approved a plan for sale of an intangible asset of an Anthony’s location with a carrying value of $0.8 million, which is classified as held for sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of July 3, 2023.

6 Net Loss Per Share
Net Loss per common share is computed by dividing Net Loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. The Company has considered the effect of (1) warrants outstanding to purchase 15,063,800 shares of common stock and (2) 75,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 75,000 shares of common stock in the unit purchase option, (3) 1,724,639 shares of restricted stock units outstanding in the calculation of income per share, and (4) the impact of any dividends associated with our redeemable preferred stock. As the effect of these on the computation of net loss per common share would have been anti-dilutive, they were excluded from the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
Basic and diluted net loss per common share is calculated as follows:

7. Related Party Transactions
The Company is affiliated with various entities through common control and ownership.
On January 23, 2023, the Company settled a claim filed by a significant stockholder. The settlement resulted in the transfer of five BurgerFi entities from the stockholder to the Company of which two were operating stores and three were entities that historically had operated stores but have since closed. The fair value of consideration paid in the settlement was $0.9 million and included $0.5 million in cash and the issuance of 200,000 shares in common stock valued at $0.4 million. The fair value of net liabilities assumed in the transaction was $0.1 million which included lease liabilities and operating assets and liabilities including property and equipment of two operating stores, net of pre-existing liabilities accrued.
The accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of January 2, 2023 reflect amounts related to periodic advances between the Company and these entities for working capital and other needs as due from related companies or due to related companies, as appropriate. There were no amounts due from related companies as of July 3, 2023 as a result of the settlement with the significant stockholder. There was approximately $0.3 million due from related parties included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of January 2, 2023.
During 2022, the Company received royalty revenue from the two operating stores that were transferred on January 23, 2023 as a result of the settlement with the significant stockholder of $0.1 million for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022.

In January 2022, the Company exercised its right to terminate this lease effective as of July 2022. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022, rent expense related to this lease was approximately $0.1 million.
Pursuant to a lease amendment entered into in February 2022, the Company leases building space for its corporate office from an entity controlled by the Company's Executive Chairman of the Board. This lease has a 10-year term with an option to renew. For the quarter and six months ended July 3, 2023, and June 30, 2022, rent expense was approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
The Company has an independent contractor agreement with a corporation (the “Consultant”) for which the Chief Operating Officer (the “Consultant Principal”) of Lionheart Capital, LLC, an entity controlled by the Company’s Executive Chairman of the Board, serves as President. Pursuant to the terms of the agreements, the Consultant shall provide certain strategic advisory services to the Company in exchange for total annual cash compensation and expense reimbursements of $0.1 million, payable monthly.
On January 3, 2023, the Company awarded the Consultant Principal an $0.1 million bonus in connection with the Company’s amendment and extension of its Credit Facility and granted the Consultant Principal 38,000 unrestricted shares of common stock of the Company. The Company recorded share-based compensation associated with this grant of approximately $0.1 million for the six months ended July 3, 2023. There was no expense included for the quarter ended July 3, 2023.
On January 3, 2022, the Company granted the Consultant Principal 37,959, respectively, of unrestricted shares of common stock of the Company. The Company recorded share-based compensation associated with this grant of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, during the quarter and and six months ended June 30, 2022 and $0.2 million for the six months ended July 3, 2023.

8. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
John Walker, Individually and On Behalf of all Other Similarly Situated v. BurgerFi International, Inc. et al (in the United States District Court, Southern District of Florida, Case No. 023-cv-60657). On April 6, 2023, John Walker, on behalf of himself and other similarly situated plaintiffs, filed a class action lawsuit against the Company and certain current and former executives alleging that the Company violated certain securities laws by making false and misleading statements or failed to disclose that (1) the Company had overstated the effectiveness of its acquisition and growth strategies, and (2) the Company had misrepresented the purported benefits of the Anthony’s acquisition and the post-acquisition business and financial prospects of the Company. On July 20, 2023, the court appointed John Walker and Joseph Poalino as co-lead plaintiffs in the matter. We believe that all claims are meritless and plan to vigorously defend these allegations. Management is unable to determine the likelihood of a loss or range of loss, if any, which may result from the case described above, and, therefore, no contingent liability has been recorded as of January 2, 2023 or July 3, 2023; any losses, however, may be material to the Company's financial position and results of operations.
Second 82nd SM, LLC v. BF NY 82, LLC, BurgerFi International, LLC and BurgerFi International, Inc. (in the Supreme Court of the State of New York County of New York, having index No. 654907/2021 filed August 11, 2021). A lawsuit was filed by Second 82nd SM, LLC (“Landlord”) against BF NY 82, LLC (“Tenant”) whereby Landlord brought a seven-count lawsuit for, among other things, breach of the lease agreement and underlying guaranty of the lease. The amount of damages Landlord is seeking approximately $1.5 million, which constitutes back rent, late charges, real estate taxes, illuminated sign charges and water/sewer charges. On November 3, 2021, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss the Complaint. On November 17, 2021, the Tenant filed an Answer to Landlord’s Complaint and a cross claim against the Company, which the Company answered on December 7, 2021. On December 22, 2021, the Company filed its Response in Opposition to Landlord’s Motion for Summary Judgment and Memo in further Support of its Motion to Dismiss. The Company turned over possession of the property in early 2023. On July 5, 2023, the Landlord filed a Motion of Summary Judgment seeking approximately $1.2 million in past due rent payments. On August 14, 2023, the Court entered an order granting the Landlord’s Motion for Summary Judgment and ordered a damages hearing on the motion, which has not yet been scheduled. As a result, unless the parties otherwise agree to a settlement prior to the damages hearing, the Company expects a judgment to be entered against it of at least approximately $1.2 million. The parties continue to discuss possible settlement, including re-occupying the location, as well as the payment, including timing, of past due rent amounts to the Landlord. In the event of any such final judgment following the damages hearing, which the Company believes would be unlikely because it intends to enter into a settlement prior to the damages hearing or, if not, plans to raise additional capital prior to any judgment, it is possible the Company would not be in compliance with its Credit Agreement covenants, which could result in an event of default and an acceleration of all outstanding debt under the Credit Agreement. See Risk Factors included in our 2022 Form 10-K for a discussion of the potential material consequences to such an event.
Lion Point Capital, L.P.(“Lion Point”) v. BurgerFi International, Inc. (Supreme Court of the State of New York County of New York, Index No. 653099/2022, filed August 26, 2022. A lawsuit filed by Lion Point against the Company, alleging that the Company failed to timely register Lion Point’s shares in violation of the registration rights agreement to which Lion Point is a party, which allegedly resulted in losses in excess of $26 million. In November 2022, as amended in February 2023, the Company filed its answer to the complaint. On April 13, 2023, Lion Point filed a Motion for Summary Judgment, and the Company responded with its reply on June 22, 2023. The Company continues to believe that all claims are meritless and plans to vigorously defend these allegations. Management is unable to determine the likelihood of a loss or range of loss, if any, which may result from the case described above, and, therefore, no contingent liability has been recorded as of January 2, 2023 or July 3, 2023; any losses, however, may be material to the Company's financial position and results of operations.
Burger Guys of Dania Pointe, et. al. v. BFI, LLC (Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida, Case No. 50-2021-CA -006501-XXXX-MB filed May 21, 2021). In response to a demand letter issued by BurgerFi to Gino Gargiulo, a former franchisee, demanding that Mr. Gargiulo pay the balance owed under an asset purchase agreement wherein BurgerFi sold the Dania Beach, Florida BurgerFi location to Mr. Gargiulo, Mr. Gargiulo filed suit against BurgerFi claiming, in addition to other matters, that no further monies are owed under the asset purchase agreement and alleges that the Company is responsible for one of Mr. Gargiulo’s failed franchises in Sunny Isles, Florida, losses he has allegedly sustained at his Dania Beach location, and reimbursement of expenses in connection with his marketing company. Mr. Gargiulo seeks damages in excess of $2 million in the aggregate. The parties attended mediation
BurgerFi International Inc., and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
on January 20, 2022, which ended in an impasse. Mr. Gargiulo amended his complaint in April 2022, which, among other matters, amended the defendant parties. In October 2022, the Company filed an additional motion to dismiss the amended complaint and a motion to stay discovery. In January 2023, Mr. Gargiulo filed a third amended complaint. In March 2023, the Company filed an answer to Mr. Gargiulo’s complaint and a counterclaim against Mr. Gargiulo relating to the breach of the asset purchase agreement discussed above. The matter is scheduled for trial in the second half of 2023. We believe that all Mr. Gargiulo claims are meritless, and the Company plans to vigorously defend these allegations. Management is unable to determine the likelihood of a loss or range of loss, if any, which may result from the case described above, and, therefore, no contingent liability has been recorded as of January 2, 2023 or July 3, 2023; any losses, however, may be material to the Company's financial position and results of operations.
All Round Food Bakery Products, Inc. v. BurgerFi International, LLC and Neri’s Bakery Products, Inc. et al (Supreme Court Westchester County, New York (Index Number 52170-2020)). In a suit filed in February 2020, the plaintiff, All Round Food Bakery Products, Inc. (“All Round Food”) alleges breach of contract and lost profits in excess of $1 million over the course of the supply agreement with the Company and Neri’s Bakery Products, Inc. (“Neri’s” and together with the Company, the “Defendants”). The Defendants assert, among other matters, that the supply agreement amongst the parties, whereby All Round Food was warehousing BurgerFi products produced by Neri’s, was terminated when All Round Food failed to cure its material breach of the supply agreement after due notice. The parties attended several additional court ordered mediations during over the last several months to attempt to resolve the dispute, however, no resolution has been reached. We believe that all claims are meritless, and the Company plans to vigorously defend these allegations. Management is unable to determine the likelihood of a loss or range of loss, if any, which may result from the case described above, and, therefore, no contingent liability has been recorded as of January 2, 2023 or July 3, 2023; any losses, however, may be material to the Company's financial position and results of operations.
Employment Related Claims.
In July 2021, the Company received a demand letter from the attorney of one of its now former hourly restaurant employees. The letter alleges that the former employee was sexually harassed by one of her co-workers. The demand letter claims that the Company discriminated and retaliated against the former employee based on her gender and age and also alleged intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligent hiring, negligent training, and negligent supervision. While the Company entered into a partial settlement with the former employee in December 2022 for a de minimus cash amount relating solely to the discrimination claim, the other claims remain.
While the Company believes that all claims of the above mentioned Employment Related Claims, which are covered under the Company’s insurance policies, are meritless, and it plans to defend these allegations, it is reasonably possible that the Company may ultimately be required to pay damages to the claimants, which could be up to $0.5 million or more in aggregate compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. Management believes that any liability, in excess of applicable insurance coverages or accruals, which may result from these claims, would not be significant to the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
General Liability and Other Claims.
The Company is subject to other legal proceedings and claims that arise during the normal course of business, including landlord disputes, slip and fall cases, and various food related matters. While it intends to vigorously defend these matters, it is reasonably possible that the Company may be required to pay substantial damages to the claimants. Management believes that any liability, in excess of applicable insurance coverages or accruals, which may result from these claims, would not be significant to the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Purchase Commitments
From time to time, we enter into purchase commitments for certain food commodities in the normal course of business. As of July 3, 2023, we entered into approximately $3.2 million in unconditional purchase obligations over the next twelve months.

The Delayed Draw Term Loan is a non-interest bearing loan and accordingly was recorded at fair value as part of the Anthony’s acquisition which resulted in a debt discount of approximately $1.3 million and is being amortized over the period of the Delayed Draw Term Loan. For the quarter and six months periods ended July 3, 2023, the Company recorded $0.1 million of amortization of the debt discount, which is included within interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

11. Income Taxes
For the quarter and six months ended July 3, 2023, the Company's effective income tax rate was 0.0%.

For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company's effective income tax rate was 0.6%, differing from the U.S. corporate statutory federal income tax rate of 21%, and the difference is primarily the result of the valuation allowance applied to reduce the Company’s deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. As of July 3, 2023, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $0.2 million.

Warrant Liability
The Company has private warrants, which include provisions that affect the settlement amount. Such variables are outside of those used to determine the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed instrument, and as such, the warrants are accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, with changes in fair value included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
The warrant liability was $0.6 million and $0.2 million at July 3, 2023 and January 2, 2023, respectively, and is included in other non-current liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The loss on change in fair value of warrant liabilities for the quarter and six months ended ended July 3, 2023 was $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and is recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The gain on change in the fair value of warrant liabilities for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $1.9 million and $1.3 million, respectively, and is recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
The following is an analysis of changes in the warrant liability:

13. Fair Value Measurements
Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using public market prices, quotes from financial institutions, and other available information. The fair values of cash equivalents, receivables, net, accounts payable and short-term debt approximate their carrying amounts due to their short duration.
The following tables summarize the fair values of financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of July 3, 2023 and January 2, 2023.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
In estimating our fair value disclosures for financial instruments, we use the following methods and assumptions:
The fair value of the Company warrant liability is measured at fair value on a recurring basis, classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the private placement warrants, private warrants, and working capital warrants are determined using the publicly-traded price of its common stock on the valuation dates of $1.63 on July 3, 2023 and $1.26 on January 2, 2023. The fair value is calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires us to make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation, including the expected term, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, dividend rate and service period. The calculated warrant price for private warrants was $0.16 and $0.05 on July 3, 2023 and January 2, 2023.
The input variables for the Black-Scholes are noted in the table below:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| July 3, 2023 | | January 2, 2023 |
Risk-free interest rate | 4.66 | % | | 4.14 | % |
Expected life in years | 2.5 | | 3.0 |
Expected volatility | 83.0 | % | | 68.0 | % |
Expected dividend yield | — | % | | — | % |
Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include our long-lived assets and definite-lived intangible assets which are adjusted to fair value upon impairment. In determining fair value, we used an income-based approach. As a number of assumptions and estimates were involved that are largely unobservable, they are classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. Assumptions used in these forecasts are consistent with internal planning, and include revenue growth rates, royalties, gross margins, and operating expense in relation to the current economic environment and the Company’s future expectations.
14. Segment Information
The Company has two operating and reportable segments: BurgerFi and Anthony's.
The Company’s measure of segment income is Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss before goodwill impairment, lease termination recovery, share-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense (which includes accretion on the value of preferred stock and interest accretion on related party note), restructuring costs, merger, acquisition and integration costs, legal settlements, store closure costs, loss (gain) on change in value of warrant liability, income tax expense (benefit) and (gain) loss on sale of assets. Although the Company had historically considered net income to be an appropriate measure of segment profit and loss, management believes Adjusted EBITDA is a more meaningful measure of the Company’s performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is used by the Company to evaluate its performance, both internally and as compared with its peers, because this measure excludes certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s operating performance, as well as items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. The Company believes that this adjusted measure provides a baseline for analyzing trends in its underlying business.
The following table presents segment revenue and a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to net loss by segment:

Overview
The Company is a leading multi-brand restaurant company that develops, markets and acquires fast-casual and premium-casual dining restaurant concepts around the world, including corporate-owned stores and franchises. As of July 3, 2023, we were the owner and franchisor of the two following brands:
BurgerFi. BurgerFi is a fast-casual “better burger” concept, renowned for delivering an exceptional, all-natural premium “better burger” experience in a refined, contemporary environment. BurgerFi’s chef-driven menu offerings and eco-friendly restaurant design drive our brand communication. It offers a classic American menu of premium burgers, hot dogs, crispy chicken, hand-cut fries, frozen custard shakes, beer, wine and more. Originally founded in 2011 in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, Florida, the purpose was simple – “RedeFining” the way the world eats burgers by providing an upscale burger offering, at a fast-casual price point. BurgerFi is committed to an uncompromising and rewarding dining experience that promises fresh food of transparent quality. Since its inception, BurgerFi has grown to 114 BurgerFi locations, and as of July 3, 2023, was comprised of 27 corporate-owned restaurants and 86 franchised restaurants in two countries including 21 states within the United States, as well as Puerto Rico.
BurgerFi was named "The Very Best Burger" at the 2023 edition of the nationally acclaimed SOBE Wine and Food Festival and “Best Fast Food Burger” in USA Today’s 10Best 2023 Readers’ Choice Awards for its BBQ Rodeo Burger, "Best Fast Casual Restaurant" in USA Today's 10Best 2023 Readers' Choice Awards for the third consecutive year, QSR Magazine's Breakout Brand of 2020 and Fast Casual's 2021 #1 Brand of the Year. In 2021, Consumer Reports’awarded BurgerFi an “A-Grade Angus Beef” rating for the third consecutive year.
Anthony’s. Anthony’s is a premium pizza and wing brand operating 60 corporate-owned casual restaurant locations, as of July 3, 2023. Anthony’s prides itself on serving fresh, never frozen, high-quality ingredients. The concept is centered around a 900-degree coal-fired oven, and its menu offers “well-done” pizza, coal-fired chicken wings, homemade meatballs, and a variety of handcrafted sandwiches and salads. The restaurants also feature a deep wine and craft beer selection to round out the menu. The pizzas are prepared using a unique coal-fired oven to quickly seal in natural flavors while creating a lightly charred crust. Anthony’s provides a differentiated offering among its casual dining peers driven by its coal-fired oven, which enables the use of fresh, high-quality ingredients with quicker ticket times.
Since its inception in 2002, the Anthony’s brand has grown to 60 corporate-owned locations, as of July 3, 2023, primarily along the East coast and has restaurants in eight states, including Florida (28), Pennsylvania (11), New Jersey (8), New York (5), Massachusetts (4), Delaware (2), Maryland (1), and Rhode Island (1).
Anthony’s was named “The Best Pizza Chain in America" by USA Today's Great American Bites and “Top 3 Best Major Pizza Chain” by Mashed in 2021.
Segments
We have two operating and reportable segments: (1) BurgerFi, and (2) Anthony’s. Our business generates revenue from the following sources: (i) restaurant sales, (ii) royalty and other fees, consisting primarily of royalties based on a percentage of sales reported by franchised restaurants and paid by franchisees, and (iii) franchise fees, consisting primarily of licensing fees paid by franchisees.

Systemwide Restaurant Sales
“Systemwide Restaurant Sales” are not revenues to the Company, however, the Company records royalty revenue based as a percentage of Systemwide Restaurant Sales. Systemwide Restaurant Sales is presented as informational data in order to understand the aggregation of franchised stores sales, ghost kitchen, and corporate-owned store sales performance. Systemwide Restaurant Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all franchised restaurants, ghost kitchens, and corporate-owned restaurants in one period from the same period in the prior year. Systemwide Restaurant Same-Store Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all franchised restaurants, ghost kitchens, and corporate-owned restaurants once the restaurant has been in operation after 14 months. See definition below under Digital Channel discussion for Same-Store Sales.
Corporate-Owned Restaurant Sales
“Corporate-Owned Restaurant Sales” represent the sales generated only by corporate-owned restaurants. Corporate-Owned Restaurant Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all corporate-owned restaurants in one period from the same period in the prior year. Corporate-Owned Restaurant Same-Store Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all corporate-owned restaurants once the restaurant has been in operation after 14 months. These measures highlight the performance of existing corporate-owned restaurants.
Franchise Restaurant Sales
“Franchise Restaurant Sales” represent the sales generated only by franchisee-owned restaurants and are not recorded as revenue, however, the royalties based on a percentage of these franchise restaurant sales are recorded as revenue. Franchise Restaurant Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all franchised restaurants in one period from the same period in the prior year. Franchise Restaurant Same-Store Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all franchised restaurants once the restaurant has been in operation after 14 months. These measures highlight the performance of existing franchised restaurants.
Same-Store Sales
We use the measure of “Same-Store Sales” to evaluate the performance of our store base, which excludes the impact of new stores and closed stores in both periods under comparison. We include a restaurant in the calculation of Same-Store Sales once it has been in operation for 14 months. A restaurant that is temporarily closed is included in the Same-Store Sales computation. A restaurant that is closed permanently, such as upon termination of the lease or other permanent closure, is immediately removed from the Same-Store Sales computation. Our calculation of Same-Store Sales may not be comparable to others in the industry.
Digital Channel % of Systemwide Sales
We use the measure of “Digital Channel % of Systemwide Sales” to evaluate the performance of our investments made in our digital platform and partnerships with third party delivery partners. We believe our digital platform capabilities are a vital element to continuing to serve our customers and will continue to be a differentiator for the Company as compared to some of our competitors. Digital Channel as % of Systemwide Sales are indicative of the sales placed through our digital platforms and the percentage of those digital sales when compared to total sales at all our franchised and corporate-owned restaurants.
Unless otherwise stated, “Systemwide Restaurant Sales,” “Systemwide Sales Growth,” and “Same-Store Sales” are presented on a systemwide basis, which means they include franchise restaurants and corporate-owned restaurants. Franchise restaurant sales represent sales at all franchise restaurants and are revenues to our franchisees. We do not record franchise sales as revenues; however, our royalty revenues and brand royalty revenues are calculated based on a percentage of franchise sales.
By providing these key metrics, we believe we are enhancing investors’ understanding of our business as well as assisting investors in evaluating how well we are executing our strategic initiatives.

Total consolidated restaurant level operating expenses as a percentage of restaurant sales was 86.2% for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 as compared to 85.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, a 50 basis points increase. For the Anthony's brand, restaurant-level operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, improved 60 basis points for the quarter ended July 3, 2023, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022, driven primarily by lower food, beverage, and paper costs coupled with a slight increase in same-store sales. For the BurgerFi brand, restaurant-level operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased 500 basis points for the quarter ended July 3, 2023, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to lower leverage on sales.
Food, Beverage and Paper Costs
Food, beverage, and paper costs for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 decreased approximately $1.8 million, or 14.1% as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of corporate-owned restaurant sales, food, beverage, and paper costs were 26.4% for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 as compared to 29.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower food, beverage, and paper costs for both brands. The Anthony’s brand, contributed approximately $1.1 million, or 61% of the decrease was primarily attributable to lower food costs as a result of lower chicken wing prices than the comparable prior year quarter.
Labor and Related Expenses
Labor and related expenses for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 decreased by approximately $0.4 million, or 3.0% as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of corporate-owned restaurant sales, labor, and related expenses were 31.1% for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 as compared to 29.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. This 190 basis points increase is primarily due to higher per hour labor rates, higher training costs, and lower efficiencies due to turnover at both brands.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 increased by approximately $0.3 million, or 4.6% as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of corporate-owned restaurant sales, other operating expenses were 19.0% for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 as compared to 17.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. This 140 basis points increase primarily relates to increased repairs and maintenance, technology and other restaurant expenses compared to the prior year quarter, which includes inflationary increases.
Occupancy and Related Expenses
Occupancy and related expenses for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 increased by approximately $0.04 million, or 1.0%, as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of corporate-owned restaurant sales, occupancy and related expenses were 9.6% for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 as compared to 9.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. This increase in percentage of corporate-owned restaurant sales was due to lower sales leverage, operation of more Burgerfi corporate-owned restaurants during the quarter and increased pass-thru operating expense adjustments from landlords.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses quarter ended July 3, 2023 decreased by approximately $1.6 million, or 22% as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The change was due to lower merger integration activities, wages, and professional fees incurred during the quarter ended July 3, 2023 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022. During the current quarter, we reduced headcount in our restaurant support center driven by efficiencies gained by merger and integration activities.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense was $3.3 million for the quarter ended July 3, 2023, as compared to $4.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily related to lower asset values due to fully depreciated assets and as a results of impairments recorded during the prior year.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
Share-based compensation expense was $0.6 million for the quarter ended July 3, 2023, as compared to $0.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to lower amortization of restricted stock unit grants during the quarter ended July 3, 2023 as compared to the prior year quarter.
Brand Development, Co-op and Advertising Expense
Brand development, co-op and advertising expense was $0.9 million for the quarter ended July 3, 2023, as compared to $1.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. This decrease primarily relates to the timing of advertising activities in 2023 when compared to the same quarter in the prior year.
Restructuring costs and other charges, net
Restructuring costs and other charges, net for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 of $1.1 million primarily related to severance for the departure of the former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer during the quarter offset by $0.2 million of credits related to store closure and lease termination recovery. Restructuring costs and other charges, net for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 of $0.1 million, primarily related to store closure costs for unopened locations.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was approximately $2.2 million for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. Interest expense primarily resulted from interest associated with our Credit Agreement, interest accretion on the related party note, and the accretion in value of our outstanding preferred stock.
Loss on Change in Value of Warrant Liability
The Company recorded a non-cash loss of approximately $0.3 million during the quarter ended July 3, 2023, as compared to a non-cash gain of approximately $1.9 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, related to a change in the fair value of the warrant liability as a result of an increase in the market price of our outstanding warrants.
Net Loss
Net loss was $6.0 million, as compared with a net loss of $60.4 million for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The change was primarily due to goodwill impairment charges during the prior year quarter, lower general and administrative expenses, lower depreciation and amortization expense than the prior year period partially offset by loss on change in fair value of warrants and increase in restructuring costs and other charges, net.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA was approximately $2.0 million and $2.6 million for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended July 3, 2023 is primarily the result of lower corporate-owned restaurant sales for the BurgerFi brand partially offset by lower restaurant level operating expenses and general and administrative expenses. Please see below for reconciliation of non-U.S. GAAP financial measure Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, net (loss) income on a consolidated basis and by segment.
Comparison of the six months ended July 3, 2023 and June 30, 2022
For the six months ended July 3, 2023, the Company’s restaurant sales decreased by approximately $0.5 million or 1% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily driven by a decrease in same-store sales at BurgerFi partially offset by the additional revenue from new restaurants acquired during 2023 and an increase in same-store sales at Anthony’s.

Total consolidated restaurant level operating expenses as a percentage of restaurant sales was 84.7% for the six months ended ended July 3, 2023, as compared to 85.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 resulting in an improvement of 110 basis points in operating margin. For the Anthony's brand, restaurant-level operating expenses, as a percentage of sales was 82.9%, a decrease of 190 basis points for the six months ended July 3, 2023, as compared to 84.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, driven primarily by higher restaurant sales and lower food costs. For the BurgerFi brand, restaurant-level operating expenses, as a percentage of sales increased 170 basis points for the six months ended July 3, 2023 from 90.8%, as compared to 89.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to lower food costs partially offset by lower leverage on sales.
Food, Beverage and Paper Costs
Food, beverage, and paper costs for the six months ended July 3, 2023 decreased approximately $3.0 million, or 12%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of corporate-owned restaurant sales, food, beverage and paper costs were 26.6% for the six months ended July 3, 2023 as compared to 30.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily attributable to lower food costs for the Anthony’s brand due primarily to lower chicken wing prices compared to the prior six months, which contributed approximately $2.2 million, or 74% of the decrease.
Labor and Related Expenses
Labor and related expenses for the six months ended July 3, 2023 increased by approximately $1.0 million, or 4.0%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of corporate-owned restaurant sales, labor and related expenses were 30.8% for the six months ended July 3, 2023, as compared to 29.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This 140 basis points increase is primarily due to per hour labor rates, higher training costs, and lower efficiencies due to turnover at both brands, in addition to more BurgerFi corporate stores operating in the current year when compared to the prior year.
Other Operating Expenses
Other operating expenses for the six months ended July 3, 2023 increased by approximately $0.6 million, or 4.1%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of corporate-owned restaurant sales, other operating expenses were 18.1% for the six months ended July 3, 2023 as compared to 17.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This 80 basis points increase in the current year primarily relates to increased repairs and maintenance, technology, and other restaurant expenses compared to the prior year, including inflationary increases.
Occupancy and Related Expenses
Occupancy and related expenses for the six months ended July 3, 2023 increased by approximately $0.04 million, or 0.5%. As a percentage of corporate-owned restaurant sales, occupancy and related expenses were 9.2% for the six months ended July 3, 2023, as compared to 9.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expense was $12.4 million for the six months ended July 3, 2023 and decreased by approximately $1.0 million, or 7%, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was due to lower lower merger integration activities, wages, and professional fees incurred during the six months ended July 3, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. During the six months ended July 3, 2023, we reduced headcount in our restaurant support center driven by efficiencies gained by merger and integration activities.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Depreciation and amortization expense was $6.5 million for the six months ended July 3, 2023, as compared to $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease was primarily related to lower asset values due to fully depreciated assets and as a result of impairments recorded during the prior year.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
Share-based compensation expense was $5.2 million for the six months ended July 3, 2023, as compared to $8.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to lower amortization of restricted stock unit grants during the six months ended July 3, 2023 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2022.
Brand Development, Co-op and Advertising Expense
Brand development, co-op, and advertising expense was $2.0 million for the six months ended July 3, 2023, as compared to $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This increase primarily relates to the timing of advertising activities in the early part of 2023 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Restructuring costs and other charges, net
Restructuring costs and other charges, net for the six months ended July 3, 2023 of $2.2 million, primarily related to expenses in connection with the Credit Agreement requirements to raise additional capital or debt of $1.1 million and severance of $1.1 million for departure of our former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer during the current year. Restructuring costs and other charges, net for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $1.0 million, primarily related to store pre-opening costs and store closure costs. See Note 10, “Debt,” for further discussion of our credit facilities and indebtedness.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was approximately $4.3 million for the six months ended ended July 3, 2023, as compared to $4.3 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Interest expense primarily resulted from interest associated with our senior credit facility, interest accretion on the related party note, and the accretion in value of our outstanding preferred stock.
Loss on Change in Value of Warrant Liability
The Company recorded a non-cash loss of approximately $0.4 million during the six months ended July 3, 2023, as compared to a non-cash gain of approximately $1.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022 related to a change in the fair value of the warrant liability as a result of an increase in the market price of our outstanding warrants.
Net Loss
Net loss for the six months ended was $15.2 million, as compared with a net loss of $73.9 million, for the six months ended July 3, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change was primarily due to goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges in the prior year, lower food, beverage, and paper costs, reduced share-based compensation expense and lower depreciation and amortization expense, partially offset by higher restructuring costs and other charges, net and loss on change in value of warrant liability as compared to the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA was approximately $4.6 million and $4.9 million for the six months ended July 3, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended July 3, 2023 is primarily the result of lower systemwide revenues, higher restaurant level operating expenses as a percentage of sales and higher general and administrative expenses partially offset by lower food, beverage and paper costs as a percentage of sales. Please see below for reconciliation of non-U.S. GAAP financial measure Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, net (loss) income on a consolidated basis and by segment.
Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
As appropriate, we supplement our reported U.S. GAAP financial information with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”). We define Adjusted EBITDA as net loss before goodwill impairment, lease termination recovery, share-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense (which includes accretion on the value of preferred stock and interest accretion on related party note), restructuring costs, merger, acquisition and integration costs, legal settlements, store closure costs, loss (gain) on change in value of warrant liability, income tax expense (benefit) and (gain) loss on sale of assets.
We use Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our performance, both internally and as compared with our peers, because this measure excludes certain items that may not be indicative of our core operating results, as well as items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. We believe that this adjusted measure provides a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying business.
We believe that this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure provides meaningful information and helps investors understand our financial results and assess our prospects for future performance. Because non-U.S. GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-U.S. GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These financial measures should not be considered in
isolation from, as substitutes for, or alternative measures of, reported net income or diluted earnings per share, and should be viewed in conjunction with the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and the provided reconciliations thereto. We believe this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, when viewed together with our U.S. GAAP results and the related reconciliations, provides a more complete understanding of our business. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not rely on any single financial measure.
Below is a reconciliation of Non-U.S. GAAP Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, net loss on a consolidated basis and by segment for the quarter and six months ended July 3, 2023 and June 30, 2022:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash from operations, cash and cash equivalents on hand, and availability on our line of credit. As of July 3, 2023, we had liquidity of $14.7 million, comprised of a cash balance of $10.7 million and $4.0 million of undrawn availability on our line of credit.
Our primary requirements for liquidity are to fund our working capital needs, operating and finance lease obligations, capital expenditures, and general corporate needs. Our requirements for working capital are generally not significant because our guests pay for their food and beverage purchases in cash or on debit or credit cards at the time of the sale, and we are able to sell many of our inventory items before payment is due to the supplier of such items. Our ongoing capital expenditures are principally related to light remodels and equipment replacement, as well as investments in our digital and corporate infrastructure. We estimate our capital expenditures will be approximately $2.0 million for the year ending January 1, 2024.
As discussed in Note 8 “Commitments and Contingencies” to the consolidated financial statements included within this report, in the case of Second 82nd SM, LLC v. BF NY 82, LLC et al., the Court entered an order granting the Landlord’s Motion for Summary Judgment and ordered a damages hearing on the motion. As a result, unless the parties otherwise agree to a settlement prior to the damages hearing, the Company expects a judgment to be entered against it of at least approximately $1.2 million. The parties, however, continue to discuss possible settlement prior to the damages hearing, including re-opening the BurgerFi brand restaurant at this location, as well as the payment, including timing, of past due rent amounts to the Landlord. In addition, the Company is considering other alternatives, including the need to refinance or restructure its debt, sell assets, or seek to raise additional capital, including debt or equity. If the Company is unable to implement one or more of these options or is otherwise unsuccessful in negotiating a settlement, which the Company believes is unlikely, and the court entered a final judgment against the Company, management believes it is possible that the Company will not be in compliance with the certain of the financial covenants in its Credit Agreement, which would constitute a breach of the Credit Agreement and an event of default if not cured in accordance with its terms. See Note 8 “Commitments and Contingencies” to the consolidated financial statements included within this report, as well as Risk Factors included in our 2022 Form 10-K for a discussion of the potential material consequences to such an event.
We have implemented, and may continue to further implement price increases to mitigate the inflationary effects of food and labor costs, however, we cannot predict the long-term impact of these negative economic conditions on our restaurant profitability.
We currently believe we are able to pay our obligations as they become due for at least the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future, with our cash flow generated from operations and our cash on hand balance and availability under our line of credit.
The following table presents the summary cash flow information for the periods indicated:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Six Months Ended |
(in thousands) | July 3, 2023 | | June 30, 2022 |
Net cash (used in) provided by: | | | |

Financing activities | 2,430 | | | (2,999) | |
Net (decrease) increase in cash | $ | (1,206) | | | $ | 858 | |
Cash Flows (Used in) Provided by Operating Activities
During the six months ended ended July 3, 2023, cash flows used in operating activities were approximately $2.6 million. The cash flows used in operating activities resulted from a net loss of $15.2 million, which was primarily related to depreciation and amortization expense of $6.5 million, share-based compensation expense of $5.2 million and non-cash interest expense of $2.4 million. Additionally, changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in a net liability decrease of approximately $1.8 million, which was mainly due to a net decrease in accrued expenses and other current liabilities,
primarily as a result of legal settlements and professional services related to obtaining financing under the Credit Agreement.
Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities
During the six months ended July 3, 2023, cash flows used in investing activities were approximately $1.0 million, which were primarily related to purchases of property and equipment for minor remodels and equipment replacements.
Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities
During the six months ended ended July 3, 2023, cash flows provided by financing activities were approximately $2.4 million, which were primarily related to principal payments on borrowings of approximately $5.7 million, which included repayment of $7.0 million on our line of credit and $1.6 million repayment on our term loan, offset by proceeds from borrowings of $5.1 million on our related party note and proceeds of $3.4 million from the private placement of 2,868,853 shares of our common stock.
Credit Agreement
The Company is party to a credit agreement with a syndicate of commercial banks (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), which provides the Company with lender financing structured as a $53.7 million term loan and a $4.0 million line of credit as of July 3, 2023, with a maturity date of September 30, 2025.
On February 1, 2023, the Credit Agreement was amended through the Fourteenth Amendment and subsequently on February 24, 2023 further amended through the Fifteenth Amendment resulting in the Company and its subsidiaries entering into a Secured Promissory Note (the “Note”) with CP7 Warming Bag L.P., an affiliate of L. Catterton Fund L.P., as lender (the “Junior Lender”), pursuant to which the Junior Lender continued that certain delayed draw term loan (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan”) of $10.0 million, under the Credit Agreement, which is junior subordinated secured indebtedness, and also provided $5.1 million of new junior subordinated secured indebtedness, to the Company (collectively (the “Junior Indebtedness”), for a total of $15.1 million in junior subordinated secured debt on terms reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement), including, without limitation, that (1) such indebtedness shall not mature until at least two (2) years after the maturity date of the credit facility of September 30, 2025; (2) no payments of cash interest shall be made on such indebtedness until after the repayment in full of the obligations under the Credit Agreement; and (3) no scheduled or voluntary payments of principal shall be made until after the repayment in full of the obligations under the Credit Agreement.
On July 7, 2023 the Credit Agreement was amended through the Sixteenth Amendment, which amended the definition of EBITDA for the purposes of expanding the scope of non-recurring items that may be included in our determination of Adjusted EBTIDA, as well as modifications to certain covenants for leverage and fixed charge ratios and requirements and timeline for when a management consultant must be engaged.
We had recorded $14.4 million, net of unamortized discount of $0.7 million under the Junior Indebtedness as of July 3, 2023 included in related party note payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Information regarding our Credit Agreement can be found under Note 10, “Debt,” to the consolidated financial statements included within this report.
