DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- (Nasdaq: GTIM), operator of the Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar and restaurant brands, today reported financial results for the fiscal 2025 third quarter.

Key highlights of the Company’s financial results include:

  • Total Revenues for the quarter decreased 2.4% to $37.0 million compared to the fiscal 2024 third quarter
  • Same store sales1 for company-owned Bad Daddy’s restaurants decreased 1.4% and Good Times restaurants decreased 9.0% for the quarter compared to the fiscal 2024 third quarter. Same store sales decreased 1.2% and 4.4% year-to-date for our Bad Daddy’s and Good Times brands, respectively
  • Net Income Attributable to Common Shareholders was $1.5 million for the quarter
  • Adjusted EBITDA2 (a non-GAAP measure) was $2.2 million for the quarter
  • The Company ended the quarter with $3.1 million in cash and $2.3 million of long-term debt

Ryan M. Zink, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our sales results this quarter were disappointing at both brands, with our Good Times brand missing last year’s comparable quarter sales by a wide margin. After a soft April, Bad Daddy’s sales improved in May and June, and bottom line results were strengthened by good controls at the Bad Daddy’s brand and reductions in general and administrative costs.�

Mr. Zink continued, “We are revisiting our strategy to address sales declines and as a part of that endeavor we have hired Jason Murphy, previously with Buffalo Wild Wings, as our new Senior Director of Marketing. Jason will oversee all aspects of marketing, including brand, advertising, and promotion at both concepts. Later this month, we will launch our new brand campaign at Good Times entitled ‘Colorado Native Burgers� which will focus heavily on our Colorado roots. The new campaign will include various advertising elements, including outdoor, social, and streaming video advertising components, along with a fresh website and matching mobile app redesign. The outdoor public transit advertising, will launch in late August, with the other campaign elements following in September. In addition to advertising, Jason will be reviewing all of our in-restaurant merchandising and promotions, including menu, point of purchase materials, and our online ordering experience.�

“Addressing traffic trends at both brands is our priority; additionally, we are focused on improving unit level economics and ensuring reasonable overhead costs as evidenced by this quarter’s profitability in spite of the reduced sales. We remain committed to delivering a great guest experience while taking swift action to reduce restaurant-level costs, however we will continue to make those choices with balance, evaluating any impacts felt by our guests,� Zink concluded.

Conference Call: Management will host a conference call to discuss its fiscal 2025 third quarter financial results on Thursday, August 7, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. MT/5:00 p.m. ET. Hosting the call will be Ryan M. Zink, its Chief Executive Officer and Keri A. August, its Senior Vice President of Finance and Accounting.

The conference call will also be webcast live from the Company's corporate website An archive of the webcast will be available at the same location on the corporate website shortly after the call has concluded.

Restaurant-level operating profit

$

The Company believes that restaurant-level operating profit is an important measure for management and investors because it is widely regarded in the restaurant industry as a useful metric by which to evaluate restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance. The Company defines restaurant-level operating profit to be restaurant revenues minus restaurant-level operating costs, excluding restaurant closures and impairment costs. The measure includes restaurant-level occupancy costs, which include fixed rents, percentage rents, common area maintenance charges, real estate and personal property taxes, general liability insurance and other property costs, but excludes depreciation. The measure excludes depreciation and amortization expense, substantially all of which is related to restaurant level assets, because such expenses represent historical sunk costs which do not reflect current cash outlay for the restaurants. The measure also excludes selling, general and administrative costs, and therefore excludes occupancy costs associated with selling, general and administrative functions, and preopening costs. The Company excludes restaurant closure costs as they do not represent a component of the efficiency of continuing operations. Restaurant impairment costs are excluded, because, like depreciation and amortization, they represent a non-cash charge for the Company’s investment in its restaurants and not a component of the efficiency of restaurant operations. Restaurant-level operating profit is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP�) and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative, to income from operations or net income as indicators of financial performance. Restaurant-level operating profit as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The tables above set forth certain unaudited information for the current and prior year fiscal quarters for fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, expressed as a percentage of total revenues, except for the components of restaurant operating costs, which are expressed as a percentage of restaurant revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of operating performance that does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operations, as determined by GAAP, and our calculation thereof may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. This measure is presented because we believe that investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by including this non-GAAP financial measure as a reasonable basis for evaluating our ongoing results of operations.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization and further adjustments to reflect the additions and eliminations presented in the table above.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented because: (i) we believe it is a useful measure for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization expenses and asset disposals, closure costs and restaurant impairments, and (ii) we use Adjusted EBITDA internally as a benchmark for certain of our cash incentive plans and to evaluate our operating performance or compare our performance to that of our competitors. The use of Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure permits a comparative assessment of our operating performance relative to our performance based on our GAAP results, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. Companies within our industry exhibit significant variations with respect to capital structures and cost of capital (which affect interest expense and income tax rates) and differences in book depreciation of property, plant and equipment (which affect relative depreciation expense), including significant differences in the depreciable lives of similar assets among various companies. Our management believes that Adjusted EBITDA facilitates company-to-company comparisons within our industry by eliminating some of these foregoing variations. Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies, and our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by excluded or unusual items.

1 Same store sales are a metric used in evaluating the performance of established restaurants and is a commonly used metric in the restaurant industry. Same store sales for our brands are calculated using all units open for at least 18 full fiscal months and use the comparable operating weeks from the prior year to the current year quarter’s operating weeks.
2 For a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant Level Operating Profit to the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP and a discussion of why the Company considers them useful, see the financial information schedules accompanying this release.
3 Depreciation and amortization and (gain) loss on restaurant and equipment asset sales have been adjusted for any amounts attributable to non-controlling interests.
