Ark Restaurants Announces Financial Results for the Second Quarter of 2022 and Reinstatement of Quarterly Cash Dividend

Ark Restaurants Corp. (NASDAQ:ARKR) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended April 2, 2022.

Financial Results

Total revenues for the 13 weeks ended April 2, 2022 were $39,586,000 versus $25,767,000 for the 13 weeks ended April 3, 2021.

Total revenues for the 26 weeks ended April 2, 2022 were $83,571,000 versus $46,066,000 for the 26 weeks ended April 3, 2021.

The increases in revenues above are not a good indicator of business performance as revenues for the 13 weeks ended April 3, 2021 and for the 26 weeks ended April 3, 2021 were negatively impacted by continually changing government mandated closures, capacity restrictions and social distancing requirements in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Company's EBITDA, excluding gains on the forgiveness of Paycheck Protection Program Loans (the "PPP Loan Forgiveness") and adjusted for other items all as set out in the table below, for the 13-weeks ended April 2, 2022 was $1,481,000 versus $(495,000) for the 13-weeks ended April 3, 2021. Net income for the 13 weeks ended April 2, 2022 was $1,055,000 (which includes PPP Loan Forgiveness of $1,122,000),or $0.30 and $0.29 per basic and diluted share, respectively, compared to net income of $4,161,000 (which includes PPP Loan Forgiveness of $4,124,000) or $1.19 and $1.15 per basic and diluted share, respectively, for the 13-weeks ended April 3, 2021.

The Company's EBITDA, excluding the PPP Loan Forgiveness and adjusted for other items all as set out in the table below, for the 26-weeks ended April 2, 2022 was $5,427,000 versus $(2,864,000) for the 26-weeks ended April 3, 2021. Net income for the 26-weeks ended April 2, 2022 was $3,264,000 (which includes PPP Loan Forgiveness of $1,122,000) or $0.92 and $0.91 per basic and diluted share, respectively, compared to net income of $3,398,000 (which includes PPP Loan Forgiveness of $4,124,000) or $0.97 and $0.95 per basic and diluted share, respectively, for the 26-weeks ended April 3, 2021.

The Company announced today that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.125 per share to be paid on June 13, 2022 to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 31, 2022.

COVID-19 Update

We are subject to continued risks and uncertainties as a result of the outbreak of, and local, state and federal governmental responses to, the COVID-19 pandemic. In the past, we experienced significant disruptions to our business as suggested and mandated social distancing and shelter-in-place orders led to the temporary closure of all of our restaurants. While restrictions on the type of permitted operating model and occupancy capacity may continue to change, all of our restaurants are currently operating with no dining restrictions. We cannot predict if the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have an impact our operating results and financial position.

(a)

EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Although EBITDA is not a measure of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), the Company believes the use of this non-GAAP financial measure enhances an overall understanding of the Company's past financial performance as well as providing useful information to the investor because of its historical use by the Company as both a performance measure and measure of liquidity, and the use of EBITDA by virtually all companies in the restaurant sector as a measure of both performance and liquidity. However, investors should not consider this measure in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss), operating income (loss), cash flows from operating activities or any other measure for determining the Company's operating performance or liquidity that is calculated in accordance with GAAP, it may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. A reconciliation of EBITDA to the most comparable GAAP financial measure, pre-tax income, is included above.
