DAVE & BUSTER’S ENTERTAINMENT, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Dave & Buster’s Entertainment, Inc. (referred to herein as the “Company”, “we,” “us” and “our”), any predecessor companies and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Dave & Buster’s Holdings, Inc. (“D&B Holdings”), which owns 100% of the outstanding common stock of Dave & Busters, Inc. (“D&B Inc”), the operating company. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company, headquartered in Dallas, Texas, is a leading operator of high-volume entertainment and dining venues (“stores”) in North America for adults and families under the name “Dave & Buster’s”. The Company operates its business as 1 operating and 1 reportable segment. During the

thirty-

nine

weeks ended November 1, 2020, management made the decision to not

re-open

two stores located in the Chicago, Illinois area and Houston,

Texas area, which are near the end of their respective lease terms, and

we opened two new stores located in Manchester, New Hampshire and Lehigh, Pennsylvania. As of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we owned and operated 137 stores located in 3940 states, Puerto Rico and 1 Canadian province.

The Company operates on a 52 or

53-week

fiscal year that ends on the Sunday after the Saturday closest to January 31. Each quarterly period reported has 13 weeks. Fiscal 2020 and 2019, which end on January 31, 2021 and February 2, 2020, respectively, contain 52 weeks.

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States for interim financial information as prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. Our quarterly financial data should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended February 2, 2020, included in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

as filed with the SEC.

~~Going concern —~~COVID-19 Considerations

~~During~~

— On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak to be a global pandemic and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a National Public Health Emergency. As a result, several state and local mandates were implemented that encouraged the practice of social distancing, placed restrictions from individuals gathering in groups and, in many areas, placed complete restrictions on non-essential movement outside of the home. Shortly after the national emergency declaration, state and local officials began placing restrictions

on businesses

, some of which allowed To-Go or curbside service only while others limited capacity in the ~~period from March 14, 2020 to~~dining room or midway. By March 20, 2020, ~~the Company~~

c

During our first quarter, one store

re-opened

to the public with limited food and beverage offerings and 2 additional stores offered

off-premise

dining options. During our second ~~quarter,~~and third quarters, we have progressively

re-opened

limited operations in an additional 101 stores and 1 new store in Manchester, New Hampshire and 1 new store in Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania.

NaN stores that re-opened during the second quarter were re-closed during the third quarter (1 of which re-opened on November 14, 2020).

83

As of November 1, 2020, 104 of our 137 stores were open, in

27

limited capacity, in 36 states, Puerto Rico and Canada.

As of November 1, 2020, 33 of the Company’s stores were closed to in-person guests as a result of local COVID-19 restrictions (31 of which have been closed since March 20, 2020). Subsequent to the ~~end~~third quarter, some local and state governments began to roll back their re-opening plans in light of ~~our second quarter, we~~

~~re-opened~~

~~one store and opened a new store located in Manchester, New Hampshire.~~climbing COVID-19 case counts. As of ~~September~~December 4, 2020, 524

stores ~~are~~were closed due to jurisdictional restrictions. ~~The Company is unable to determine whether, when or the manner in which the conditions surrounding the~~

~~COVID-19~~

~~pandemic will change, including when any restrictions or closure requirements will be lifted or potentially~~

~~re-imposed~~

~~in certain states or local jurisdictions, whether it will be able to successfully staff stores, and the degree to which it will be able to~~

~~re-engage~~

customers. These developments have caused a material adverse impact on the Company’s revenues, results of operations and cash flows, including the Company’s ability to meet its obligations when due. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date the financial statements are issued.

The Company has taken several steps to reduce operating costs and to conserve cash. The Company initially furloughed nearly all its workforce, except a small team of essential personnel and temporarily reduced pay and benefits for the remaining employees for a twelve-week period. On March 18, 2020, the Company borrowed substantially all the remaining availability under its revolving credit facility, and the Company continues to actively manage its daily cash flows. During our first and second quarter, the Company obtained additional liquidity through the sale of common stock, which resulted been

in ~~net proceeds of $182,207.~~

~~Additionally, the Company initiated~~ ongoing discussions with landlords and other vendors to negotiate relief from cash payments under existing lease and trade payable obligations. As of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, a total of 92123 rent relief agreements related to our operating locations and corporate headquarters were executed, which generally provide for full deferral for three months beginning April 2020, with partial deferral continuing for periods of up to six months, at approximately 50% of those locations. We have also been successful in negotiating extended and reduced payment terms with several vendors. In addition to reducing expenses, including capital expenditures and

discretionary spending

, the Company obtained additional liquidity through the sale of common stock during our first and second quarters, which resulted in net proceeds of $182,207.

On

October

27,

2020, D&B Inc, a wholly owned subsidiary, completed the private sale of $550,000 in aggregate principal amount of 7.625% senior secured notes due 2025. At the same time,

the

revolving credit commitments under our existing credit facility

were extended

through August 17, 2024

,

and the suspension of our financial ratio covenants

was extended

until

the

last

day

of

the first quarter of fiscal year 2022.

See Note 3, Debt,

for more information on these transactions.

~~Effective April 14, 2020,~~

The measures taken by the Company ~~negotiated an amendment~~provide sufficient liquidity to ~~its existing credit facility, which included relief~~meet estimated cash flow needs and covenant compliance obligations for at least the next twelve months from ~~compliance with financial covenants for~~ the ~~periods ended May 3, 2020, August 2, 2020 and November 1, 2020. During~~issuance of the financial covenant suspension period, the Company is required to maintain a minimum liquidity amount of $30,000. If the Company is not in compliance with financial covenants after the suspension period or some other event of default arises, the Company’s lenders could instruct the administrative agent under the existing credit facility to exercise remedies including declaring the principal of and accrued interest on all outstanding indebtedness due and payable, terminating all remaining commitments and obligations under the revolving credit facility and requiring the posting of cash collateral in respect of 103%

of

~~the outstanding letters of credit under the revolving credit facility. Additionally, the full amount due under the interest rate swap~~statements.

agreements would become due. Although the lenders under the existing credit facility may waive the default or forebear the exercise of remedies, they are not obligated to do so. Failure to obtain additional waivers would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and results of operations and may result in filing a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code to implement a restructuring plan.

~~The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.~~

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and for the period then ended. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Operating results for the

~~twenty-six~~

thirteen and

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2021.

Cash and cash equivalents

— We consider transaction settlements in process from credit card companies and all highly-liquid investments with

original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Our cash management system provides for the daily funding of all major bank disbursement accounts as checks are presented for payment. Under this system, outstanding checks in excess of the cash balances at certain banks creates book overdrafts. There was 0 book overdraft as of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020. A book overdraft of $14,026 is presented in “Accounts payable” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 2, 2020. Changes in the book overdraft position are presented within “Net cash provided by

~~(used~~ (used in)

operating activities” within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Fair value of financial instruments

— Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an

orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. In determining fair value, the accounting standards establish a three-level hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level One inputs are quoted prices available for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; Level Two inputs are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; and Level Three inputs are unobservable and reflect management’s own assumptions.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts payable, and other current liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. We believe that the carrying amount of our ~~credit facility~~debt, which was refinanced during the third quarter, approximates its fair value because the interest rates reflect current market conditions. The fair value of the Company’s ~~credit facility~~debt was determined to be a Level Two instrument as defined by GAAP. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap is determined based upon Level Two inputs which includes valuation models as reported by our counterparties. These valuation models are based on the present value of expected cash flows using forward rate curves.

Non-financial

assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a nonrecurring basis include such items as property and equipment,

right-of-use

(“ROU”) assets, goodwill, tradenames and other assets.

~~The disruption in operations and reduction in revenues have led the Company to consider the impact of the~~

~~COVID-19~~

~~pandemic on the recoverability of its property and equipment and ROU assets for operating leases.~~

During the first quarter

of

fiscal

2020, each store’s past and present operating performance was reviewed in combination with projected future results primarily through projected undiscounted cash flows that included management’s current expectation of future financial impacts from

~~COVID-19.~~

If the ~~store’s assets~~

~~were~~

~~not~~

~~determined to be~~

~~recoverable~~

through comparison of the asset’s carrying value to its undiscounted cash flows, the Company compared the carrying amount of each store’s assets to its fair value as estimated by management to calculate the impairment amount The fair value of the store’s assets is generally determined using a discounted cash flow projection model, which is based on Level Three inputs. Store asset impairment charges represent the excess of the carrying amount over the estimated fair value of the store asset.

~~The~~ Company recorded an impairment charge for its long-lived assets, including ROU assets, of $6,746, ~~during the~~

~~first qu~~

ar

~~ter of fis~~

c

al

~~2020,~~ primarily driven by the expected impact of the

COVID-19

pandemic on future cash flows of specific stores.

During the second ~~quarter~~and third quarters of fiscal 2020, the Company did not identify additional triggering events which would require a change in management’s estimate regarding the recoverability of store asset values, and

a

~~dditional~~

additional impairment related to our operating stores was ~~recognized~~

.

recognized. The Company has determined no events and circumstances existed during the

~~twenty-six~~

~~week~~

s

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020 that would indicate it is more likely than not that its goodwill or tradename are impaired. The ultimate severity and longevity of the

COVID-19

pandemic is unknown, and therefore, it is possible that impairments could be identified in future periods, and such amounts could be material.

Additionally, the Company

is c

~~ontinu~~

~~ing~~

continuing discussions to terminate or delay possession on several executed lease contracts that have not yet commenced. The Company ishas also ~~curtailing~~curtailed several potential new store projects that were in the early stage of development. During the thirteen and

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we recorded an impairment loss and related contract termination costs of ~~$2,178~~$0 and $6,981,

respectively, related to these projects, which is included in “Other store operating expenses” in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Interest rate swaps

— ~~The~~Effective February 28, 2019, the Company entered into three interest rate swap agreements to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our

variable rate credit facility. The agreements entitle the Company to receive at specified intervals, a variable rate of interest based on

one-month

LIBOR in exchange for the payment of a fixed rate of interest throughout the life of the agreements. The notional amount of the swap agreements, which mature August 17, 2022, total ~~$350,000~~

s

$350,000 and the fixed rate of interest for all agreements is 2.47%. ~~The agreements became effective on February 28, 2019 and mature on August 17, 2022, which is the maturity date of our credit facility.~~

The Company initially designated its interest rate swap agreements as a cash flow hedge and accounted for the underlying activity in accordance with hedge accounting. Effective April 14, 2020, the Company amended its existing credit facility agreement to obtain relief from its financial covenants, and as a result, the variable interest rate terms were modified to create an interest rate floor

of

1.00%. Accordingly, and as a result of the current forward interest rate curve, the Company discontinued the hedging relationship as of April 14, 2020

(de-designation

date). Given the continued existence of the hedged interest payments, the Company ~~will reclassify~~is

de-designation,

any gain or loss on the derivatives are recognized in earnings in the period in which the change occurs. For the thirteen and

~~twenty-six~~

~~was~~were recognized,

respectively,

which

are

included in “Other store operating expenses” in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Prior to the

de-designation,

changes in the fair values of the interest rate swaps were recorded as a component of other comprehensive loss until the interest payments being hedged were recorded as interest expense, at which time the amounts in accumulated other comprehensive loss were reclassified as an adjustment to interest expense. Cash flows related to the interest rate swaps were

included as a component

of interest expense and in operating activities.

Credit risk related to the failure of ~~the~~ our counterparties to perform under the terms of the swap agreements is minimized by entering into transactions with carefully selected, credit-worthy parties and the fact that the swap contracts are distributed among several financial institutions to reduce the concentration of credit risk. Our swap agreements with our derivative counterparties contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, and repayment of the indebtedness has been accelerated, the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.

Revenue recognition

— Amusement revenues are primarily recognized upon utilization of game play credits on power cards purchased and used by customers to activate video and redemption games. Redemption games allow customers to earn tickets, which may be redeemed for prizes in our WIN! area. We have deferred a portion of amusement revenues for the estimated unfulfilled performance obligations based on an estimated rate of future use by customers of unused game play credits and the material right provided to customers to redeem tickets in the future for prizes. During the thirteen and ~~twenty-six~~thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we recognized revenue of approximately $

~~2,500~~$3,300 and $

In our consolidated financial statements, the Company treats shares withheld for tax purposes on behalf of our employees in connection with the vesting of time-based and performance restricted stock units as common stock repurchases because they reduce the number of shares that would have been issued upon vesting. These withheld shares of common stock are not considered common stock repurchases under our authorized common stock repurchase plan. During the

Effective March 18, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a

364-day

On April 14, 2020, pursuant to an open market sale agreement, the Company sold 6,149,936 shares of its common stock at a price of $12.20 per share, for proceeds of $75,000, prior to deducting offering expenses related to the offering. On May 4, 2020, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement, pursuant to which it sold 9,578,545 shares of its common stock at a price of $10.44 per share, and on May 18, 2020, the underwriter exercised its over-allotment option for an additional 1,014,871 shares at $10.44 per share, resulting in additional proceeds of $110,600 prior to deducting offering costs.

On June 23, 2020, shareholders approved a proposal to amend our 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Plan”) to increase the number of shares available for awards under the Plan by 3,000,000 shares.

Recently adopted accounting guidance

— In

June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU

2016-13

, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,

which requires measurement and recognition of expected versus incurred losses for financial assets held. The guidance primarily relates to our credit card and tenant incentive receivables. The Company adopted this standard as of the beginning of fiscal year 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU

2017-04

, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment,

which eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill if the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying amount of the reporting unit. Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss will be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company adopted this standard as of the beginning of fiscal year 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU

2018-13,

Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement

, which eliminates, modifies and adds disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The Company adopted this standard as of the beginning of fiscal year 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements

December 2019, the FASB issued ASU

Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes

, which removes certain exceptions related to the approach for

intraperiod

tax allocations, the calculation of income taxes in interim periods, and the recognition of deferred taxes for taxable goodwill. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and for interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this new standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Reform on Financial Reporting

, which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the current guidance for contract modifications and hedging relationships through December 31, 2022, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. A contract modification resulting from reference rate reform may be accounted for as a continuation of the existing contract rather than the creation of a new contract. Additionally, changes in the critical terms of hedging relationships, caused by reference rate reform, should not result in the

de-designation

of the instrument, provided certain criteria are met. As of the end of the ~~first~~third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company’s exposure to LIBOR rates included its ~~senior~~ credit facility and swap agreements.

Effective April 14, 2020, we amended our existing credit facility, which provided relief from compliance with financial covenants through the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The interest rate increased to LIBOR plus 2.00% with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%.

On ~~August 17, 2017, we entered into a~~October 27, 2020, the Company issued $550,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.625% senior secured credit facility that provides a $300,000 term loan facility and a $500,000 revolving credit facility with a maturity date of August 17, 2022. The $500,000 revolving credit facility includes a $35,000 letter of credit

~~and a $15,000 swing loan~~

~~sub-facility.~~

~~The revolving credit facility is available to provide financing for general purposes. Principal payments~~notes (the “Notes”). Interest on the ~~term loan facility~~Notes accrues from October 27, 2020 and is payable in arrears on November 1 and May 1 of each year, commencing on May 1, 2021. The Notes mature on November 1, 2025, unless earlier redeemed, and are ~~$3,750 per quarter through maturity, when~~subject to the ~~remaining balance is due.

Concurrent and subject to the issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into a second amendment to its ~~direct~~existing credit facility, which included relief from testing compliance with certain financial covenants until the last day of the fiscal quarter ending on May 1, 2022. During the financial covenant suspension period the Company is required to maintain minimum liquidity (primarily

of lender debt costs associated with the first amendment.

The Company used the proceeds of the Notes offering, along with cash on hand, to repay the $255,000 principal balance of the term loan facility, $463,000 of borrowings under the revolving credit facility, and related accrued

interest. The Company

incurred debt costs of $18,200, which are being amortized over the terms of the respective Notes and revolving credit facility. As of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, approximately $3,300 of these debt costs had not been paid. The Company also recorded a loss of $904 related to the unamortized debt costs associated with the term portion of the credit facility.

For the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020, and November 3, 2019, the Company’s weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings was 4.17% and 4.03%, respectively. As of November 1, 2020, we had letters of credit outstanding of $9,686 and an unused commitment balance of ~~$1,314~~$464,314 under of

Effective April 14, 2020, we amended our existing credit facility, which included relief from compliance with financial covenants for the quarterly periods ended May 3, 2020, August 2, 2020 and November 1, 2020. During the financial covenant suspension period, a $30,000 liquidity covenant was added as well as certain additional reporting requirements, and the termination of additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility during the suspension period. The interest rate increased to LIBOR plus 2.00% with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%. For the

Note 4: Leases

We currently lease the building or site for our stores, corporate office and warehouse space under facility operating leases. These leases typically have initial terms ranging from ten to twenty years and include one or more options to renew. When determining the lease term, we include option periods for which renewal is reasonably certain. Most of the leases require us to pay property taxes, insurance and maintenance of the leased assets. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Operating leases also includes certain equipment leases that have a term in excess of one year. Certain facility leases also have provisions for additional contingent rentals based on revenues.

Operating lease cost, variable lease cost and short-term lease cost related primarily to our facilities is included in “Other store operating expenses” for our operating stores,

“Pre-opening

costs” for our stores not yet operating, or “General and administrative expenses” for our corporate office and warehouse, in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

During the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, the Company entered into 92123 rent relief agreements with our respective landlords on operating locations and our corporate headquarters. Under these agreements, certain rent payments will be abated, deferred or modified without penalty for various periods, generally providing for full deferral for three months beginning April 2020, with partial deferrals continuing for periods of up to six months at approximately 50% of those locations. The Company has elected to account for lease concessions and deferrals resulting directly from

COVID-19

as though the enforceable rights and obligations to the deferrals existed in the respective contracts at lease inception and will not account for the concessions as lease modifications, unless the concession results in a substantial increase in the Company’s obligations. During the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, 84113 of our 92123 rent relief agreements qualified for this accounting election, and the remaining ~~eight~~ agreements were treated as lease modifications, primarily due to a significant extension of the lease term. Further, as a result of the

COVID-19

pandemic and its impact on our financial condition, the Company has chosen not to pay ~~the majority~~rent or to pay a portion of ~~its remaining facility~~ operating lease obligations as they become due for eight properties without rent relief agreements as of the end of the ~~second~~third quarter. As of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we have bifurcated our current operating lease liabilities into the portion that remains subject to accretion and the portion that is accounted for as a deferral of payments or as short payments.

Note 5: Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to certain legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business, including claims alleging violations of federal and state law regarding workplace and employment matters, discrimination,

slip-and-fall

and other guest-related incidents, and similar matters. In the opinion of management, based upon consultation with legal counsel, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to such legal proceedings and claims will not materially affect the consolidated results of our operations or our financial condition. Legal costs related to such claims are expensed as incurred.

The Company is currently a defendant in several lawsuits filed in courts in California alleging violations of California Business and Professions Code, industry wage orders,

wage-and-hour

laws and rules and regulations pertaining primarily to the failure to pay proper regular and overtime wages, failure to pay for missed meals and rest periods, pay stub violations, failure to pay all wages due at the time of termination and other employment related claims (the “California Cases”). Some of the California Cases purport or may be determined to be class actions or Private Attorneys General Act representative actions and seek substantial damages and penalties. With respect to a portion of the California Cases, the Company has estimated and accrued for the most likely amount of loss. Where the Company has determined that a loss is reasonably possible but not probable, the Company is unable to estimate the amount or range of the reasonably possible loss due to the inherent difficulties of predicting the outcome of uncertainties regarding legal proceedings. The Company’s assessments are based on assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but that may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause the Company to change those estimates and assumptions. Management’s assessment of these California Cases

, as well as other lawsuits,

could change because of future determinations or the discovery of facts that are not presently known. Accordingly, the ultimate costs of resolving these cases may be substantially higher or lower than estimated. The Company is aggressively defending these cases.

Note 6: Earnings per share

Potential dilutive shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options (both vested and unvested), unvested time-based restricted stock units (RSU’s) and unvested performance RSU’s to the extent performance measures were attained as of the end of the reporting period, calculated using the treasury-stock method. Potential dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of earnings per share (“EPS”) if their effect is anti-dilutive. Stock options for which the exercise price exceeds the average market price over the period are anti-dilutive and, accordingly, are excluded from the calculation. The weighted average anti-dilutive options excluded from the calculation of common equivalent shares were ~~160,967~~235,368 and ~~97,502~~134,450 in the thirteen and

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019.

During the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020 and ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019, excess tax expense (benefit) of ~~$477~~$431 and ($~~884)~~912), respectively, were recognized as an expense (benefit) in the “Provision (benefit) for income taxes” in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) and classified as a source in operating activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Note 8: Income Taxes

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). Intended to provide economic relief to those impacted by the

COVID-19

pandemic, the CARES Act includes provisions, among others, addressing the carryback of net operating losses for specific periods, temporary modifications to the limitations placed on the tax deductibility of net interest expenses, and technical amendments for qualified improvement

property. Additionally, the

CARES Act, in efforts to enhance business’ liquidity, provides for the deferral of the employer-paid portion of social security taxes. As of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we have elected to defer employer-paid portion of social security taxes of ~~$1,448,~~$3,398, which is included in “Other liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company has historically calculated the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annualized effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to “ordinary” income or loss for the reporting period. Due to the uncertainty created by the events surrounding the

COVID-19

pandemic, the actual effective tax rate for the year to date period was used to calculate the income tax benefit for the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020. The effective tax rate for the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, was a benefit

of ~~34.9%~~

32.3

%, compared to an ~~effective tax rate~~

expense

of ~~21.5%~~

21.3

% for the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019, primarily due to the impact of a decrease in operating earnings before income tax and the impact of the tax provisions within the CARES Act. As a result of the impact of the technical amendments for qualified improvement property within the CARES Act, the Company generated a taxable loss in 2019, which together with the taxable loss in 2020, can ~~now~~ be carried back to prior years when the statutory federal tax rate was ~~at 35.0%~~

approximately

35.0

%. As of November 1, 2020, the Company has recognized a current benefit of $34,090 related to estimated fiscal year 2019 and 2020 tax net operating losses that will be carried back to recover taxes paid in

prior periods. The estimated tax benefit from the net operating losses is included in “Income taxes receivable” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes in Item 1 and with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 3, 2020. Unless otherwise specified, the meanings of all defined terms in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are consistent with the meanings of such terms as defined in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. This discussion contains statements that are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms “believes,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “will” or “should” or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include all matters that are not historical facts. They appear in a number of places throughout this report and include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs or current expectations concerning, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, prospects, growth, strategies and the industry in which we operate.

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate may differ materially from those made in or suggested by the forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report as a result of various factors, including those set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

filed with the SEC on April 3, 2020. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this Form

10-Q,

those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods.

Recent Developments

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the

COVID-19

outbreak to be a global pandemic and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a National Public Health Emergency. As a result, several state and local mandates were implemented that encouraged the practice of social distancing, placed restrictions from individuals gathering in groups and, in many areas, placed complete restrictions on

non-essential

movement outside of the home. Shortly after the national emergency declaration, state and local officials began placing restrictions on ~~restaurants,~~businesses, some of which allowed

To-Go

or curbside service only while others limited capacity in the dining room or midway. By March 20, 2020, all of our 137 operating stores were temporarily ~~closed.~~closed (including our one new store that opened on March 16). During our first quarter, one store

re-opened

to the public with limited food and beverage offerings and two additional stores offered

off-premise

dining options. During our second ~~quarter,~~and third quarters, we have progressively

re-opened

limited operations in an additional 83101 stores and one new store in 27Manchester, New Hampshire and one new store in Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania. Two stores that

re-opened

during the second quarter were

re-closed

during the third quarter (one of which

re-opened

on November 14, 2020). As of November 1, 2020, 104 of our 137 stores were open, in limited capacity, in 36 states, Puerto Rico and Canada. ~~Additionally, eight stores were~~

~~re-opened~~

~~during the second quarter and subsequently closed prior to August 2, 2020, due to changes in jurisdictional operating limits.~~ Our current scaled-down operating model includes a limited

15-item

menu, reduced dining capacity and suspended use of some games in our midway for social distancing, reduced operating hours and reduced staffing levels designed to be responsive to restrictions imposed by various jurisdictions related to

COVID-19

re-openings.

As of November 1, 2020, 33 of the Company’s stores were closed to

in-person

guests as a result of local

COVID-19

restrictions (31 of which have been closed since March 20, 2020). Subsequent to the ~~end~~third quarter, some local and state governments began to roll back their

re-opening

plans in light of ~~our second quarter, we~~climbing

~~re-opened~~COVID-19

~~one store and opened a new store located in Manchester, New Hampshire.~~case counts. As of ~~September~~December 4, 2020, 5248 stores ~~are~~were closed due to jurisdictional restrictions.

As a result of these developments, the Company is experiencing a significant decrease in traffic which has impacted the Company’s operating results during the thirteen and

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020. We expect our operating results to continue to be severely impacted until such time that state and local restrictions are lifted, and our dining rooms and midways can

re-open

at full capacity. We cannot predict how long the pandemic will last or when the state and local restrictions will be lifted or potentially

re-imposed.

In addition, we cannot predict how quickly our guests will return to our ~~restaurants~~stores once such restrictions have been lifted or the impact this will have on consumer spending habits.

In response to the ongoing pandemic, the Company and its Board of Directors implemented the following measures to enhance financial flexibility:

reduced expenses broadly, including by furloughing all of our hourly store team members and approximately 94% of store management personnel, on or about March 19, 2020, while enacting

12-week

salary reductions for remaining ~~managers. In addition, effective March 24, 2020, the Company furloughed all but a small team of essential corporate and administrative staff, enacted~~

~~12-week~~

~~salary reductions ranging from 10% to 50%, and suspended all cash board fees through the remainder of fiscal 2020;~~

managers. In addition, effective March 24, 2020, the Company furloughed all but a small team of essential corporate and administrative staff, enacted

12-week

salary reductions ranging from 10% to 50%, and suspended all cash board fees through the remainder of fiscal 2020. As stores reopen with a reduced workforce a portion of the furloughed personnel at our stores and corporate office have returned to work;

stopped work on future planned sites and commenced negotiations to terminate related contracts, as applicable;

suspended our share repurchase program and declaration of dividends;

negotiated amendments to our credit facility resulting in an extension of the maturity date of our revolving credit facility to August 17, 2024;

~~drew down substantially all the remaining credit available under our $500,000 revolving credit facility;~~issued $550,000 of senior secured notes, maturing November 1, 2025;

sold shares of our common stock, which generated gross proceeds of approximately $185,600; and

negotiated with our landlords, vendors, and other business partners to temporarily reduce our lease and contract payments and obtain other concessions. As of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, a total of 92123 rent relief agreements related to our operating locations and corporate headquarters were executed, which generally provide for full deferral for three months beginning April 2020, with partial deferral continuing for periods of up to six months, at approximately 50% of those locations.

The

re-opening

process has been a gradual one with the safety of our employees and guests as our top priority. All of our

re-opened

stores are operating with streamlined menus, reduced games, new seating and game configurations, reduced operating hours, and reduced staff levels. As dining room and midway restrictions continue to ease and sales begin to improve, some labor inefficiencies and increased cleaning and supply costs are anticipated as stores adjust to improved sales volumes and enhanced health and safety protocols. On an ongoing basis, we will also continue to pursue long-term operating efficiencies and fixed cost restructuring opportunities.

Given the level of volatility and uncertainty surrounding the future impact of the pandemic, we have not provided a full year financial outlook for fiscal 2020.

General

We are a leading owner and operator of high-volume venues in North America that combine dining and entertainment for both adults and families under the name “Dave & Buster’s”. Founded in 1982, the core of our concept is to offer our customers the opportunity to “Eat, Drink, Play and Watch” all in one location. Eat and Drink are offered through a full menu of entrées and appetizers and a full selection of

non-alcoholic

and alcoholic beverages. Our Play and Watch offerings provide an extensive assortment of entertainment attractions centered around playing games and watching live sports and other televised events. Our brand appeals to a relatively balanced mix of male and female adults, as well as families and teenagers, in low to middle-income households.

Our stores average ~~41,000~~40,000 square feet, range in size between 16,000 and 70,000 square feet and are open seven days a week, with normal hours of operation typically from 11:30 a.m. to midnight on Sunday through Thursday and 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.

Key Measures of Our Performance

We monitor and analyze several key performance measures to manage our business and evaluate financial and operating performance. These measures include:

Comparable store sales.

Comparable store sales are a year-over-year comparison of sales at stores open at the end of the period which have been open for at least 18 months as of the beginning of each of the fiscal years. It is a key performance indicator used within the industry and is indicative of acceptance of our initiatives as well as local economic and consumer trends. As of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, our comparable store base consisted of ~~115~~114 stores, of which 4730 stores were closed.

19

Table of Contents

New store openings.

Our ability to expand our business and reach new customers is influenced by the opening of additional stores in both new and existing markets. The success of our new stores is indicative of our brand appeal and the efficacy of our site selection and operating models. Between ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019 and ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we opened ~~seven~~five new stores ~~(six~~(two in fiscal 2019 and ~~one~~three in fiscal 2020).

Non-GAAP

Financial Measures

In addition to the results provided in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we provide

non-GAAP

measures which present operating results on an adjusted basis. These are supplemental measures of performance that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP and include Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization and Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization Margin (defined

19

~~Table of Contents~~

below). These

non-GAAP

measures do not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flows from operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and our calculations thereof may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Although we use these

non-GAAP

measures to assess the operating performance of our business, they have significant limitations as an analytical tool because they exclude certain material costs. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account a number of significant items, including our interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA excludes

pre-opening

and other costs which may be important in analyzing our GAAP results. Because Adjusted EBITDA does not account for these expenses, its utility as a measure of our operating performance has material limitations. Our calculations of Adjusted EBITDA adjust for these amounts because they vary from period to period and do not directly relate to the ongoing operations of the currently underlying business of our stores and therefore complicate comparison of underlying business between periods. Nevertheless, because of the limitations described above, management does not view Adjusted EBITDA or Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization in isolation and also uses other measures, such as revenues, gross margin, operating income and net income, to measure operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as net income (loss) plus interest expense, net, loss on debt refinancing, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, loss on asset disposal, impairment of long-lived assets, share-based compensation,

pre-opening

costs, currency transaction (gains) losses and other costs. “Adjusted EBITDA Margin” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues.

Adjusted EBITDA is presented because we believe that it provides useful information to investors and analysts regarding our operating performance. By reporting Adjusted EBITDA, we provide a basis for comparison of our business operations between current, past and future periods by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance.

Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization and Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization Margin.

We define “Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization” as operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization expense, general and administrative expenses and

pre-opening

costs. “Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization Margin” is defined as Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization divided by total revenues. Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization Margin allows us to evaluate operating performance of each store across stores of varying size and volume.

We believe that Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization is another useful measure in evaluating our operating performance because it removes the impact of general and administrative expenses, which are not incurred at the store-level, and the costs of opening new stores, which are

non-recurring

at the store-level, and thereby enables the comparability of the operating performance of our stores for the periods presented. We also believe that Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization is a useful measure in evaluating our operating performance within the entertainment and dining industry because it permits the evaluation of store-level productivity, efficiency and performance, and we use Store Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization as a means of evaluating store financial performance compared with our competitors. However, because this measure excludes significant items such as general and administrative expenses and

pre-opening

costs, as well as our interest expense, net and depreciation and amortization expense, which are important in evaluating our consolidated financial performance from period to period, the value of this measure is limited as a measure of our consolidated financial performance.

Presentation of Operating Results

We operate on a 52 or

53-week

fiscal year that ends on the Sunday after the Saturday closest to January 31. Each quarterly period has 13 weeks, except in a

53-week

year when the fourth quarter has 14 weeks. All references to the ~~second~~third quarter of 2020 relate to the

13-week

period ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020. All references to the ~~second~~third quarter of 2019 relate to the

13-week

period ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019. Fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 consist of 52 weeks. All dollar amounts are presented in thousands, unless otherwise noted, except share and per share amounts.

Store-Level Variability, Quarterly Fluctuations, Seasonality and Inflation

We have historically operated stores varying in size and have experienced significant variability among stores in volumes, operating results and net investment costs.

Our new stores historically open with sales volumes in excess of their expected long-term

run-rate

levels, which we refer to as a “honeymoon” effect. We traditionally expect our new store sales volumes in year two to be 10% to 20% lower than our year one targets, and to grow in line with the rest of our comparable store base thereafter. As a result of the substantial revenues associated with each new store, the number and timing of new store openings may result in significant fluctuations in quarterly results.

20

~~Table of Contents~~

In the first year of operation new store operating margins (excluding

pre-opening

expenses) typically benefit from honeymoon sales leverage on occupancy, management labor, and other fixed costs. This benefit is partially offset by normal inefficiencies in hourly labor and other costs associated with establishing a new store. In year two, operating margins may decline due to the loss of honeymoon sales leverage on fixed costs which is partially offset by improvements in store operating efficiency. Furthermore, rents in our new stores are typically higher than our comparable store base.

Our operating results fluctuate significantly due to seasonal factors. Typically, we have higher revenues associated with spring and

year-end

holidays which will continue to be susceptible to the impact of severe or unseasonably mild weather on customer traffic and sales during that period. Our third quarter, which encompasses the

back-to-school

fall season, has historically had lower revenues as compared to the other quarters.

We expect that economic and environmental conditions and changes in regulatory legislation will continue to exert pressure on both supplier pricing and consumer spending related to entertainment and dining alternatives. Although there is no assurance that our cost of products will remain stable or that federal, state or local minimum wage rates will not increase beyond amounts currently legislated, the effects of any supplier price increases or wage rate increases might be partially offset by selected menu price increases if competitively appropriate. In addition, how quickly, and to what extent, normal economic and operating conditions can resume cannot be predicted, and the resumption of normal business operations may be delayed or constrained by lingering effects of the

COVID-19

pandemic on us or our suppliers, third-party service providers, and/or customers.

In response to the ~~business disruption caused by the~~

COVID-19

outbreak, which was declared a global pandemic on March 11, 2020 and a National Public Health Emergency in the United States on March 13, the Company ~~has taken the following actions, related to its store operations:~~

~~Temporarily closures~~temporarily closed of all of our 137 stores ~~completed~~ by March 20, 2020 (including our one new store opening March 16);

. On April 30, 2020, ~~one store~~the Company

re-opened

the first store to the public, ~~with limited food~~ and ~~beverage offerings. Two additional stores offered limited food and beverage for~~

~~off-premises~~

~~dining; and~~

~~During the thirteen weeks ended August 2, 2020,~~ an additional 83 stores were

~~re-opened.~~re-opened

during the second quarter.

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2020, the Company

re-opened

an additional 20 stores and one new store in Manchester, New Hampshire and one new store in Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania. Two stores that

re-opened

during the second quarter were

re-closed

during the third quarter.

As of November 1, 2020, 104 of our 137 stores were open. Of these 104 open stores, 84 are comparable stores. These stores are operating with limited menus, reduced dining room seating, reduced games in the midway, reduced operating hours and other restrictions referred to as “limited operations”.

Total revenues decreased ~~$293,766,~~$190,300, or ~~85.2%~~63.6%, to ~~$50,833~~$109,052 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to total revenues of ~~$344,599~~$299,352 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019. The decline in revenue is attributable primarily to fewer store operating weeks in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 as a result of temporary store closures, lower customer volumes due to limited food and beverage and amusement operations and the canceling or postponement of special events as a result of the

COVID-19

pandemic. For the thirteen weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we derived 22.2% of our total revenue from food sales, 11.2% from beverage sales, and 66.6% from amusement sales and less than 0.1% from other sources. For the thirteen weeks ended August 4, 2019, we derived 28.0%23.2% of our total revenue from food sales, 12.0% from beverage sales, ~~59.1%~~64.4% from amusement sales and ~~0.9%~~0.4% from other sources. For the thirteen weeks ended November 3, 2019, we derived 27.9% of our total revenue from food sales, 13.7% from beverage sales, 57.4% from amusement sales and 1.0% from other sources.

Comparable store revenue decreased ~~$268,794~~$170,539 or ~~87.0%~~65.6%, in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019, due primarily to a ~~67.0%~~33.0% reduction in comparable store operating weeks and lower customer volumes as stores

re-opened

with limited operations. During the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020, the number of comparable stores operating increased from ~~one~~68 at the beginning of the quarter to 6884 at the end of the quarter. Our individual comparable stores generally experienced gradual increases in weekly sales performance as operating weeks increased. Individual store performance after

re-opening

was impacted by changes in local operating restrictions and consumer reactions to changes in local

COVID-19

infection rates.

Food sales at comparable stores decreased by ~~$77,714,~~$51,838, or ~~89.6%~~71.4%, to ~~$8,982~~$20,793 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 from ~~$86,696~~$72,631 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019. Beverage sales at comparable stores decreased by ~~$32,508,~~$24,936, or ~~87.5%~~69.7%, to ~~$4,652~~$10,830 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 from ~~$37,160~~$35,766 in the 2019 comparison period. Comparable store amusement and other revenues in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 decreased by ~~$158,572,~~$93,765, or ~~85.7%~~61.8%, to ~~$26,567~~$57,969 from ~~$185,139~~$151,734 in the comparable thirteen weeks of fiscal 2019. The

COVID-19

pandemic driven reduction in operating hours and product offerings contributed to a shift in our comparable store revenue mix away from food and beverage revenues to amusements and other revenues of approximately ~~600~~630 basis points when compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019.

Non-comparable

store revenue decreased ~~$26,052~~$20,039 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019, for the same reasons noted above, including 4412 net fewer store operating weeks.

This decrease was driven by lower freight costs, lower cost per ticket and higher revenue per game play credit sold as a result of less discounting of amusement revenues, partially offset by an unfavorable shift in ticket redemption patterns.

Operating payroll and benefits

Total operating payroll and benefits decreased by ~~$67,171,~~$48,461, or ~~83.0%~~63.6%, to ~~$13,756~~$27,704 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~$80,927~~$76,165 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019. Nearly all of our store workforce, with the exception of a small team of essential personnel, were furloughed in

The total cost of operating payroll and benefits as a percentage of total revenues ~~increased 360 basis points to 27.1%~~remained unchanged at 25.4% in both the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 ~~compared to 23.5% for~~and the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019. ~~This increase was primarily due to sales~~Favorable results in hourly labor were offset by the deleveraging impact of management labor as a result of the temporary store closures and ~~partially attributable to~~ continued benefit coverage for furloughed employees. Additionally, late in the third quarter, we recalled a core group of store managers at unopened stores.

Other store operating expenses

Other store operating expenses decreased by ~~$41,694,~~$39,930, or ~~39.9%~~36.1%, to ~~$62,682~~$70,783 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~$104,376~~$110,713 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019. ~~Decreased~~The decrease is primarily due to reduced spend on marketing, maintenance and other services due to temporary store ~~closures and $1,000 insurance proceeds related to the~~

~~COVID-19~~

~~business disruptions were partially offset by a $2,178 charge for impairment of long-lived assets and a net loss on derivatives of $976.~~closures. Other store operating expense as a percentage of total revenues increased to ~~123.2%~~64.9% in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~30.3%~~37.1% in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019. This increase was due primarily to sales deleveraging on occupancy costs and utilities as a result of the temporary store ~~closures and the charges for impairment.~~closures.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses decreased by ~~$6,713,~~$4,464, or ~~42.0%~~27.5%, to ~~$9,278~~$11,746 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~$15,991~~$16,210 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily driven by lower labor costs due to ~~the furloughing~~continued furloughs and elimination of ~~most~~a significant number of positions at our corporate ~~employees, temporarily reducing pay and benefits for the remaining employees through the first seven weeks of the second quarter,~~office, lower professional services, reduced travel expenses and board of director fees. These cost reductions were partially offset by increased share-based compensation as a result of new grants issued during the second quarter.

Depreciation and amortization expense

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by ~~$2,415~~$1,044 or ~~7.4%~~3.1%, to ~~$35,160~~$34,384 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~$32,745~~$33,340 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019. Increased depreciation due to our 2020 and 2019 capital expenditures for new stores, operating initiatives, games and maintenance capital, was partially offset by other assets reaching the end of their depreciable lives.

Pre-opening

costs

Pre-opening

costs decreased by ~~$2,335~~$1,675 to ~~$2,388~~$2,570 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~$4,723~~$4,245 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019 due to a decrease in the number of new store openings in the current year, as construction was put on hold, with

pre-opening

costs being primarily limited to

pre-opening

rent expense after the disruption of our business as a result of the

COVID-19

pandemic.

Interest expense, net & Loss on debt refinance

Interest expense, net increased by ~~$3,558~~$2,103 to ~~$8,163~~$8,213 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ~~$4,605~~$6,110 in the ~~second~~third quarter of fiscal 2019 due ~~primarily~~ to an increase in the average outstanding debt ~~a slightly higher~~and an increase in the weighted average effective interest ~~rate and~~rate. In connection with the ~~absence~~October 27, 2020 debt refinancing, which is explained in Note 3 to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company recorded a charge of ~~capitalized interest.~~$904 during the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

Provision (benefit) for income taxes

The effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, was a benefit of ~~34.4%~~26.3%, compared to ~~an effective tax rate~~24.1% in the third quarter of ~~22.2% for the thirteen weeks ended August 4,~~fiscal 2019, primarily due to the impact of a decrease in operating earnings before income tax as well as the impact of provisions of the CARES Act, including technical amendments to qualified improvement property and the impact of carrying back tax net operating losses from fiscal years 2020 and 2019 ~~back~~ to years with a higher federal corporate income tax rate. The prior year effective tax rate was also impacted by lower projected state tax expense and the favorable impact of tax credits.

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019. The decline in revenue is attributable to fewer store operating weeks in fiscal 2020 as a result of temporary store closures, lower customer volumes due to limited food and beverage and amusement operations and the canceling or postponement of special events as a result of the

COVID-19

pandemic. For the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we derived ~~25.3%~~24.6% of our total revenue from food sales, ~~13.1%~~12.7% from beverage sales, ~~61.1%~~62.2% from amusement sales and 0.5% from other sources. For the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019, we derived 27.9% of our total revenue from food sales, ~~12.5%~~12.9% from beverage sales, ~~58.8%~~58.4% from amusement sales and 0.8% from other sources.

Comparable store revenue decreased ~~$466,177,~~$633,411, or ~~72.2%~~70.2%, in the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020 compared to the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019, due primarily to a ~~60.0%~~50.9% reduction in comparable store operating weeks and lower customer volumes as stores

re-opened

with limited operations. As of March 20, 2020, all the Company’s ~~115~~114 comparable stores were closed due to operating restrictions put in place by local jurisdictions in response to the

COVID-19

pandemic. Beginning April 30, 2020, we began

re-opening

our stores based on changes in operating restrictions in the various jurisdictions. As of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, 6884 of our comparable stores had

re-opened

under limited operating conditions. Our individual comparable stores generally experienced gradual increases in weekly sales performance as operating weeks increased. Individual store performance after

re-opening

was impacted by changes in local operating restrictions and consumer reactions to changes in local

COVID-19

infection rates.

Comparable

walk-in

revenues, which accounted for ~~94.4%~~96.2% of comparable store revenue for the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, decreased ~~81.9%~~87.1% compared to the similar period in fiscal 2019 as events were canceled or postponed due to local restrictions on group gathering size and operating restrictions on our business.

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine week period ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019, due primarily to sales deleveraging of management labor as a result of the temporary store closures and partially attributable to continued benefit coverage for furloughed employees. Late in the third quarter, we recalled a core group of store managers at unopened stores.

Other store operating expenses

Other store operating expenses decreased by ~~$52,267,~~$92,197, or ~~24.8%~~28.7%, to ~~$158,354~~$229,137 in the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019. Decreased spend on marketing, maintenance and other services due to temporary store closures and $1,000 insurance proceeds related to the

COVID-19

business disruptions were partially offset by a $13,727 charge for impairment of long-lived assets and a net loss on derivatives of ~~$1,796.~~$1,578. Other store operating expense as a percentage of total revenues increased to ~~75.3%~~71.8% in the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019. This increase was due primarily to sales deleveraging on occupancy costs and utilities as a result of the temporary store closures and the charges for impairment.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In response to the business disruption caused by the

COVID-19

pandemic, the Company has taken the following actions to enable it to meet its obligations over the next twelve months:

During the first ~~quarter~~and second quarters of fiscal year 2020, we:

reduced expenses broadly;

canceled or delayed all

non-essential

planned capital spending for the remainder of fiscal 2020 and halted or delayed all planned store openings;

suspended our share repurchase program and our dividend;

drew down substantially all the remaining credit available under our $500,000 revolving credit facility;

negotiated an amendment with our lenders, which included relief from compliance with financial covenants for the first, second and third quarterly periods of fiscal 2020;

sold shares of our common stock, which generated gross proceeds of ~~$75,000; and~~$185,600;

initiated negotiations with our landlords, vendors, and other business partners to temporarily reduce our lease and contract payments and obtain other ~~concessions.~~concessions; and

~~In addition, during the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we:~~

~~sold additional shares of common stock, which generated gross proceeds of $110,600;~~

submitted a proposal, approved by our shareholders, increasing the number of shares available for incentive awards, which enables management to maintain key talent while preserving the Company’s liquidity by minimizing cash ~~outlays; and~~outlays.

In addition, during the third quarter of fiscal 2020, we:

continued discussions with our landlords, vendors and other business partners to reduce our lease and contract payments and obtain concessions. As of ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, a total of 92123 rent relief agreements relating to our operating locations and corporate headquarters were executed, which generally provide for full deferral for three months beginning April 2020, with partial deferral continuing for periods of up to six months, at approximately 50% of those ~~locations.~~locations;

negotiated a second amendment with our lenders, resulting in an extension of the maturity date of our revolving credit facility and extended relief from compliance with financial covenants until the first quarter of fiscal year 2022; and

issued $550,000 of senior secured notes, maturing November 1, 2025.

~~While these measures have been successful in obtaining temporary relief, and we continue to negotiate additional relief measures, given the~~Although uncertainty ~~surrounding~~surrounds the timing of

Debt and Derivatives

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, we drew down substantially all the available credit under our $500,000 revolving credit facility. Current availability under the revolving credit facility is reduced by $9,686 of outstanding letters of credit, which are used to support our self-insurance programs. As of August 2, 2020, we had an unused commitment balance of $1,314 and total outstanding debt obligations of $747,750 under the existing credit facility, which matures in August 2022.

Effective April 14, 2020, we amended our existing credit facility, which ~~included~~provided relief from compliance with financial covenants ~~for~~through the ~~quarterly periods ended May 3, 2020, August 2, 2020, and November 1,~~third quarter of fiscal 2020. During the financial covenant suspension period, a $30,000 liquidity covenant was added as well as certain additional reporting requirements, and the termination of additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility during the suspension period. The interest rate increased to LIBOR plus 2.00% with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%. ~~In connection~~

On October 27, 2020, the Company issued $550,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.625% senior secured notes (the “Notes”). Interest on the Notes accrues from October 27, 2020 and is payable in arrears on November 1 and May 1 of each year, commencing on May 1, 2021. The Notes mature on November 1, 2025, unless earlier redeemed, and are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the related indenture. The Notes were issued by D&B Inc and are unconditionally guaranteed by D&B Holdings and certain of D&B Inc’s existing and future wholly owned material domestic subsidiaries, which is substantially the same as the guarantors of the Company’s existing credit facility.

Concurrent and subject to the issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into a second amendment to its existing credit facility, which included relief from testing compliance with certain financial covenants until the last day of the fiscal quarter ending on May 1, 2022. During the financial covenant suspension period the Company is required to maintain a minimum liquidity (primarily availability under the credit facility) of $150,000. The second amendment ~~we incurred debt costs of $2,000, which are payable at~~extended the maturity date of the $500,000 revolving portion of the facility from August 17, 2022 to August 17, 2024, and the interest rate spread increased from 2.00% to 4.00% during the financial covenant suspension period, with an additional 1.00% utilization fee due at maturity. After the financial covenant suspension period, the interest rate spread ranges from 1.25% to 3.00%. The second amendment terminated the term loan portion of the credit facility, which triggered payment of $1,900 of lender debt costs associated with ~~earlier payment required in~~ the ~~event of certain conditions, as defined in the agreement. For~~first amendment.

The Company used the proceeds of the Notes offering, along with cash on hand, to repay the $255,000 principal balance of the term loan facility, $463,000 of borrowings under the revolving credit facility, and related accrued interest. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $18,200, which are being amortized over the terms of the respective Notes and revolving credit facility. As of November 1, 2020, approximately $3,300 of these debt costs had not been paid. The Company also recorded a loss of $904 related to the unamortized debt costs associated with the term portion of the credit facility.

For the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, and November 3, 2019, the Company’s weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings was ~~3.98%.~~4.17% and 4.03%, respectively. We expect this rate to increase ~~slightly~~ in future quarters as a result of the ~~amendment. Further, if there is~~issuance of the Notes and the second amendment to the credit facility.

During fiscal 2019, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable rate credit facility. Our swap agreements with our derivative counterparties contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness and repayment of the indebtedness has been accelerated, the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. Refer to Note 1 of the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of our swap agreements, which were

de-designated

as hedges effective April 14, 2020, the date of the first amendment to our credit facility.

Dividends and Share Repurchases

The Company had previously established a share repurchase program, under which the Company may repurchase shares on the open market, through privately negotiated transactions, and through trading plans designed to comply with Rule

10b5-1

of the Exchange Act. At ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we had approximately $172,820 remaining of a total $800,000 share repurchase authorization. The existing share repurchase program expires at the end of fiscal 2020. As a result of the impacts to our business arising from the COVID

-19

pandemic, share purchases and dividend payments have been indefinitely suspended.

Cash Flow Summary

At ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of ~~$224,305. The April 14, 2020 amendment to our credit facility requires that the Company maintain a minimum cash balance of $30,000 with our lenders.~~$8,341.

Operating Activities

— Cash flow generated from operations typically provides us with a significant source of liquidity. Our operating cash flows result primarily from cash received from our customers, offset by cash payments we make for products and services, employee compensation, operations and occupancy costs. Cash provided by or used in operating activities is also subject to changes in working capital. Working capital at any specific point in time is subject to many variables, including seasonality, the timing of cash receipts and payments, and vendor payment terms.

Table of Contents

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased ~~$170,194~~$249,543 in the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020 compared to the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019 driven primarily by the closure of all of our 137 operating stores as of March 20, 2020. Operations ceased until April 30, 2020, when we

re-opened

our first store, followed by the progressive

re-opening

of 83101 additional stores with limited operations through the end of our ~~second~~third quarter. The impact of approximately ~~1,829~~2,330 fewer store weeks and limited operations was lessened somewhat by reduced income tax payments as well as our efforts to actively manage the Company’s daily cash flows, including deferrals and short payments of rent and other payments to landlords.

Investing Activities

— Cash used in investing activities primarily reflects capital expenditures.

During the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, the Company spent approximately ~~$48,800~~$55,800 for new store construction and operating improvement initiatives ($~~44,800~~47,100 net of payments from landlords), ~~$8,600~~$9,500 for game refreshment and ~~$6,100~~$7,300 for maintenance capital.

During the

~~twenty-six~~

thirty-nine weeks ended ~~August 4,~~November 3, 2019, we spent approximately ~~$99,500~~$145,700 ($~~78,200~~117,100 net of payments from landlords) for new store construction and operating improvement initiatives, ~~$9,800~~$12,400 for game refreshment and ~~$8,600~~$14,800 for maintenance capital.

Financing Activities

— ~~Cash provided by financing activities~~During the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, the Company drew down substantially all the available credit under our revolving credit facility, or approximately $100,000. During the third quarter, the Company issued $550,000 of senior secured notes in a private offering and amended the

~~twenty-six~~

~~weeks ended August 2, 2020, primarily reflected $99,500~~ existing credit facility. The proceeds from the offering, along with cash on hand, were used to pay debt issuance costs, the $255,000 balance of the term portion of the credit facility, and $463,000 of outstanding borrowings under the revolving portion of the credit facility. Additionally, the Company received net proceeds ~~from borrowings~~ of ~~debt and~~ approximately $182,200 ~~of net proceeds~~ from the issuance of shares of our common ~~stock.~~stock during the first and second quarter of fiscal year 2020. In the

~~twenty-six~~

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

~~Other than~~Effective October 27, 2020, the Company issued $550,000 of senior secured notes and entered into the second amendment to ~~our~~its existing credit facility, ~~effective~~which was first amended on April 14, ~~2020, there~~2020.

(2)

The cash obligations for the variable portion of the interest requirements on the outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility and the unused commitment are based on an interest rate of 6.00% and 0.50%, respectively, through the end of the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, reduced to 4.00% and 0.40%, respectively, for the remainder of the term of the credit facility. The interest requirement on the Notes is based on a fixed rate of 7.625%.

Accounting policies and estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions affect amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of gain and loss contingencies at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Our current estimates are subject to change if different assumptions as to the outcome of future events were made. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis, and we adjust our assumptions and judgments when facts and circumstances dictate. Since future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty, actual results may differ from the estimates we used in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements. A complete description of our critical accounting policies and estimates is included in our annual consolidated financial statements and the related notes in our Annual Report on Form

10-K

filed with the SEC on April 3, 2020.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to market price fluctuation in food and beverage product prices. Given the historical volatility of certain of our food product prices, including proteins, seafood, produce, dairy products, and cooking oil, these fluctuations can materially impact our food costs. While our purchasing commitments partially mitigate the risk of such fluctuations, there is no assurance that supply and demand factors such as disease or inclement weather will not cause the prices of the commodities used in our restaurant operations to fluctuate. Additionally, the cost of purchased materials may be influenced by tariffs and other trade regulations which are outside of our control. To the extent that we do not pass along cost increases to our customers, our results of operations may be adversely affected. At this time, we do not use financial instruments to hedge our commodity risk.

Interest Rate Risk

~~We are exposed to interest rate risk arising from changes in interest rates due to the~~Our variable rate indebtedness under our ~~credit facility. At August 2, 2020, borrowings pursuant to our~~$500,000 revolving credit facility ~~of $747,750 bear interest at a floating rate~~is based on

one-month

LIBOR, ~~plus 2.00%,~~ with a LIBOR floor of 1.00%. ~~We currently have an~~Our interest rate swap ~~agreement to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our variable rate credit facility up to the~~agreements, with a combined notional amount of ~~$350,000. The agreement converts~~$350,000, convert the floating portion of the interest rate to a fixed interest rate of approximately 2.47% ~~from the effective date~~through August 17, 2022. As of ~~the agreements through the term of our existing credit facility.~~November 1, 2020,

one-month

LIBOR is below 1.00%.

Inflation

The primary inflationary factors affecting our operations are food, labor costs, and energy costs. Many of our leases require us to pay taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance and utilities, all of which are generally subject to inflationary increases. Finally, the cost of constructing our stores is subject to inflationary increases in the costs of labor and material.

A large portion of our hourly employees are paid wage rates at or based on the applicable federal, state or city minimum wage and increases in the minimum wage will increase our labor costs. Several states and local jurisdictions in which we operate have enacted legislation to increase the minimum wage and/or minimum tipped wage rates by varying amounts, with more planned increases in the future.

In general, we have been able to partially offset cost increases resulting from inflation by increasing menu prices, improving productivity, or other operating changes. We may or may not be able to offset cost increases in the future.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules

13a-15

and

15d-15

promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the Exchange Act

Rules 13a-15(f)

and

15d-15(f))

that occurred during our ~~second~~third quarter ended ~~August 2,~~November 1, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Table of Contents

The

COVID-19

pandemic has disrupted and is expected to continue to disrupt our business, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition for an extended period of time.

The recent outbreak of

COVID-19,

and any other outbreaks of contagious diseases or other adverse public health developments in the United States or worldwide, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. In 2020, the

COVID-19

pandemic has significantly impacted the economy in general, and our business specifically, and it will continue to negatively affect our business in a number of ways. These effects could include, but are not limited to:

the uncertain and unprecedented impact of the coronavirus and the disease it causes

(COVID-19)

on our business and operations and the related impact on our liquidity needs;

our ability to continue as a going concern;

our ability to obtain additional waivers or amendments, and thereafter continue to satisfy covenant requirements (even as they may be amended), under our amended credit agreement and derivative contract payables;

our ability to access other funding sources;

the duration of government-mandated and voluntary shutdowns, and the impact of ongoing mitigation restrictions on our operations once our stores can

re-open;

the speed with which our stores safely can be

re-opened

and the level of customer demand following

re-opening;

the economic impact of

COVID-19

and related disruptions on the communities we serve; and

our overall level of indebtedness.

The extent to which the

COVID-19

pandemic, or other outbreaks of disease or similar public health threats, materially and adversely impacts our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments. Such developments may include the geographic spread and duration of the virus, the severity of the disease and the actions that may be taken by various governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the outbreak. In addition, how quickly, and to what extent, normal economic and operating conditions can resume cannot be predicted, and the resumption of normal business operations may be delayed or constrained by lingering effects of the

COVID-19

pandemic on us or our suppliers, third-party service providers, and/or customers.

We face risks related to our substantial indebtedness and limitations on future sources of liquidity.

As of November 1, 2020, we had total borrowings of $576,000, which consisted of $550,000 of secured indebtedness represented by our Notes and $26,000 of senior secured borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences to us, including:

making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our debt, and any failure to comply with the obligations under our debt instruments, including restrictive covenants, could result in an event of default under the agreements governing our indebtedness increasing our vulnerability to general economic and industry conditions, including as a result of disruption caused by the global

COVID-19

pandemic;

requiring a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to be dedicated to the payment of obligations with respect to our debt, thereby reducing our ability to use our cash flow to fund our operations, lease payments, capital expenditures, selling and marketing efforts, product development, future business opportunities and other purposes;

exposing us to the risk of increased interest rates as a substantial portion of our borrowings are at variable rates;

restricting us from making strategic acquisitions;

limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, product development, debt service requirements, acquisitions, and general corporate or other purposes; and

limiting our ability to plan for, or adjust to, changing market conditions and placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors who may be less highly leveraged.

Any of these risks could materially impact our ability to fund our operations or limit our ability to expand our business, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Covenants in our debt agreements restrict our business and could limit our ability to implement our business plan.

The credit facility and the indenture governing the Notes contain covenants that may restrict our ability to implement our business plan, finance future operations, respond to changing business and economic conditions, secure additional financing, and engage in opportunistic transactions, such as strategic acquisitions. In addition, if we fail to satisfy the covenants contained in the credit facility, our ability to borrow under the revolving credit loans portion of the credit facility may be restricted. The credit facility and the indenture governing the Notes include covenants restricting, among other things, our ability to do the following under certain circumstances:

incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain disqualified or preferred stock;

34

Table of Contents

pay dividends or make other distributions on, or redeem or purchase, any equity interests or make other restricted payments;

make certain acquisitions or investments;

create or incur liens;

transfer or sell assets;

incur restrictions on the payments of dividends or other distributions from our restricted subsidiaries;

alter the business that we conduct;

enter into transactions with affiliates; and

consummate a merger or consolidation or sell, assign, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets.

The covenants in the credit facility are generally more restrictive than the covenants in the indenture governing the Notes and place certain limitations on our ability to: incur additional indebtedness, make loans or advances to subsidiaries and other entities, pay dividends, acquire other businesses or sell assets. In addition, other than during the second amendment suspension period, our credit facility requires us to comply with a total leverage ratio that is no greater than the applicable financial covenant level and a fixed charge ratio that is no greater than 1.25:1.00, respectively, which are each tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. During the second amendment suspension period, our credit facility requires us to maintain minimum liquidity of $150,000 at all times.

Events beyond our control, including the impact of

COVID-19,

may affect our ability to comply with our covenants, even after the cessation of the second amendment suspension period.

If we default under the credit facility or the indenture governing the Notes, because of a covenant breach or otherwise, all outstanding amounts thereunder could become immediately due and payable. We cannot assure you that we will be able to comply with our covenants under the credit facility, or the indenture governing the Notes or that any covenant violations will be waived in the future. Any violation that is not waived could result in an event of default, permitting our lenders to declare outstanding indebtedness and interest thereon due and payable, and permitting the lenders under the revolving credit loans provided under the credit facility to suspend commitments to make any advance, or require any outstanding letters of credit to be collateralized by an interest bearing cash account, any or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if we fail to comply with our financial or other covenants under the credit facility or the indenture governing the Notes, we may need additional financing in order to service or extinguish our indebtedness. We may not be able to obtain financing or refinancing on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. We cannot assure you that we would have sufficient funds to repay outstanding amounts under the credit facility or the indenture governing the Notes and any acceleration of amounts due would have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.

Changes in interest rates could adversely impact the price of our shares, our ability to issue equity or incur debt for acquisitions or other purposes.

Interest rates on future borrowings, credit facilities and debt offerings could be higher than current levels, causing our financing costs to increase accordingly. In addition, LIBOR and other “benchmark” rates are subject to ongoing national and international regulatory scrutiny and reform. On July 27, 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that it will no longer persuade or compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of the LIBOR rates after 2021 (the “FCA Announcement”). The Alternative Reference Rate Committee, a committee convened by the Federal Reserve that includes major market participants, has proposed an alternative rate to replace U.S. Dollar LIBOR: the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or “SOFR.” We are unable to predict the effect of the FCA Announcement or other reforms, whether currently enacted or enacted in the future. The outcome of reforms may result in increased interest expense to us. Changes in interest rates, either positive or negative, may affect the yield requirements of investors who invest in our shares, and a rising interest rate environment could have an adverse impact on the price of our shares, our ability to issue equity or incur debt for acquisitions or other purposes.
