1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Business

Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc. (“~~DRH”~~DRH,” the "Company," "us," "our" or ~~the "Company"~~"we") is a restaurant company operating a single concept, Buffalo Wild Wings^®(“BWW”). As one of the largest franchisees of BWW, we provide a unique guest experience in a casual and inviting environment.

DRH currently operates 6564 BWW restaurants (20 in Michigan, 1817 in Florida, 15 in Missouri, 7 in Illinois and 5 in Indiana)~~, including the nation’s largest BWW, based on square footage, in downtown Detroit, Michigan.~~

On December 25, 2016, the Company completed a spin-off (the "Spin-Off") of 19 Bagger Dave's entities and certain real estate entities which house the respective Bagger Dave's entities previously owned by DRH into a new independent publicly traded company, Bagger Dave's Burger Tavern, Inc. ("Bagger Dave's"). For additional details refer to Note 2 .

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements as of ~~July 1, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and December ~~31, 2017,~~30, 2018, and for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018, ~~and June 25, 2017,~~ have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The financial information as of ~~July 1, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018 ~~and June 25, 2017~~ is unaudited, but, in the opinion of management, reflects all adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The consolidated financial information as of December ~~31, 2017~~30, 2018 is derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December ~~31, 2017,~~30, 2018, which is included in Part II Item 8 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December ~~31, 2017,~~30, 2018, and should be read in conjunction with such consolidated financial statements.

The results of operations for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018 ~~and June 25, 2017~~ are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be achieved for the entire fiscal year ending December ~~30, 2018.~~29, 2019.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation.

Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Part II, Item 8, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December ~~31, 2017.~~30, 2018.

Since December ~~31, 2017,~~30, 2018, there has been one significant change in our accounting policies related to ~~revenue recognition,~~the implementation of ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which is presented ~~below.~~below and in Note 9.

Going Concern

As further discussed in Note 6, the Company has approximately $96.6 million of debt outstanding under its $155.0 million senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of lenders led by Citizens (the “Credit Facility”) with a maturity date of June 29, 2020. The debt agreement contains various customary financial covenants generally based on the earnings of the Company relative to its debt. The financial covenants consist of a quarterly minimum required debt service coverage ratio and a maximum permitted lease adjusted leverage ratio which were reset pursuant an amendment dated February 28, 2018. This amendment also changed the definition of "consolidated EBITDA" used in the calculation of these financial covenants to permit the inclusion of a maximum of $5 million of equity proceeds over the remaining term of the agreement.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with its loan covenants. However, beginning in the third quarter of 2019, the net proceeds from the registered public offering will no longer be included in "consolidated EBITDA" and, as a result, the Company is currently forecasting that it may not be in compliance with these financial covenants in the third quarter.

DIVERSIFIED RESTAURANT HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

While the Company has successfully negotiated financial covenant amendments in the past and would seek to do so again should it be in default or near a default, there can be no assurance that it will be successful in obtaining a satisfactory amendment.

As a result of this uncertainty coupled with the June 2020 maturity of the Credit Facility, the Company has been in discussions with its current lenders and other sources of capital regarding a possible refinancing and/or replacement of the Credit Facility. The Company is also exploring various other alternatives. There can be no assurance, however, that any such efforts will be successful.

Until such time as the Company has executed an agreement to amend, refinance or replace the Credit Facility, the Company cannot conclude that it is probable that it will do so and, accordingly, this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

However, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty, including any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects of the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Revenue Recognition Policy

Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in implied contracts with our customers and excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation (at the time of sale) by transferring control over a product to a customer. Payment is due at the time the food or merchandise is transferred to the customer. The portion of any sale that results in loyalty rewards being issued is deferred, net of estimated breakage, until redemption.

Nature of Goods Sold

DRH earns revenue through sales of food, beverages and merchandise, and redemptions of gift cards ~~and merchandise to~~by our customers. These sales occur through multiple channels, such as in-restaurant, call-in, online (web-based) and via third party delivery services.

~~Buffalo Wild Wings International, Inc. ("BWLD")~~BWW offers a system-wide loyalty program (Blazin’ Rewards®) whereby enrolled customers earn points for each qualifying purchase. As a franchisee, DRH is required to participate in the program. DRH estimates the value of loyalty points earned (the value per point) by dividing the menu price of redeemable items by the loyalty reward points required to redeem that menu item. Points issued as part of the loyalty program expire after 6 months of member inactivity. DRH commissioned a study to determine a reasonable estimate of the breakage rate, which was approximately 32%.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~DIVERSIFIED RESTAURANT HOLDINGS, INC.~~

~~NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

DRH has two types of sales transactions, transactions without loyalty attachment and transactions with loyalty attachment. Transactions without loyalty attachment require no allocation of the transaction price, because the price is observable and fixed based on the menu. Transactions with loyalty attachment have two performance obligations: 1) providing the purchased food, beverages and/or merchandise to the customer and, 2) redeeming awarded loyalty points for food, beverages or merchandise in the future. In loyalty related transactions the price is allocated to the products sold and the points issued. Revenue related to loyalty points that may be redeemed in the future is deferred, net of estimated breakage, until such loyalty points are redeemed. ~~For additional details refer to~~The accrued loyalty liability balance is reflected in Note 6.5.

The Company offers gift cards for purchase through a ~~BWLD~~BWW system-wide program. Gift cards sold are recorded as a liability to ~~BWLD.~~BWW. When redeemed, the gift card liability is offset by recording the transaction as revenue. Net gift card activity is settled with ~~BWLD~~BWW weekly. At times, gift card redemptions may exceed amounts due to ~~BWLD~~BWW for gift card purchases, resulting in an asset balance. Because this is a system-wide program operated by ~~BWLD,~~BWW, the Company is not impacted by and does not record breakage.

~~Recent Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~In August 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2017-12,~~ ~~Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities(Topic 815)~~ ("ASU 2017-12"). The amendment expands an entity’s ability to hedge accounting to non-financial and financial risk components and requires changes in fair value of hedging instruments to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. The ASU also amends the presentation and disclosure requirements for the effect of hedge accounting. The ASU must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative effect adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the initial application date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows, financial position and disclosures.

~~In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases~~ ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 requires that lease arrangements longer than 12 months result in a lessee recognizing a lease asset and liability. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. We have analyzed the impact of the new standard and concluded that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will materially impact our consolidated financial statements by significantly increasing our non-current assets and non-current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets in order to record the right of use assets and related lease liabilities for our existing operating leases. Operating leases comprise the majority of our current lease portfolio. With respect to implementation, we are currently reviewing the accounting standard and expect it to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We reviewed all ~~other~~ significant newly-issued accounting pronouncements and concluded that they either are not applicable to our operations or that no material effect is expected on our consolidated financial statements as a result of future adoption.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 requires the lessee to recognize a lease asset and liability for lease arrangements longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted the new standard as of December 31, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. The Company has adjusted comparative periods and has elected the package of practical expedients which allows it to not reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 materially impacted our consolidated financial statements by significantly increasing our non-current assets and liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets in order to record the right-of-use ("ROU") assets and related lease liabilities for our operating leases. We lease all of our restaurant properties under operating leases. The adoption of the standard does not have a material impact on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

In conjunction with our adoption of the new lease accounting standard, certain line items have been adjusted on our opening balance sheets as of January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018 to conform to the current period presentation. As of January 1, 2018, the line items impacted and adjustments consist of: the addition of $50.0 million in ROU assets, $6.3 million in current operating lease liabilities, $46.9 million in non-current operating lease liabilities, and $1.4 million in retained earnings; and the removal of $0.1 million of intangible assets, $2.6 million in deferred rent, $0.5 million of unfavorable operating lease liabilities, and $1.5 million in deferred gains associated with prior sale leaseback transactions. As of December 31, 2018, the line items impacted and adjustments consist of: the addition of $52.3 million in ROU assets, $6.7 million in current operating lease liabilities, $49.0 million in non-current operating lease liabilities, and $1.3 million in retained earnings; and the removal of $0.1 million of intangible assets, $2.8 million in deferred rent, $0.4 million of unfavorable operating lease liabilities, and $1.4 million in deferred gains associated with prior sale leaseback transactions. Additionally, the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended July 1, 2018, reflects an increase in general and administrative expense of approximately $32,000 and $64,000, respectively. Refer to Note 9 for further details.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2018-02"). ASU 2018-02 provided financial statement preparers with an option to reclassify stranded tax effects within accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and

Jobs Act of 2017 (or portion thereof) was recorded. ASU 2018-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 effective December 31, 2018, and elected to reclassify the income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) to retained earnings. Adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue with Contracts from Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ~~The guidance introduces~~This ASU and subsequently issued amendments, introduce a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which delayed the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for public companies to January 1, 2018. The FASB also agreed to allow entities to choose to adopt the standard as of the original effective date.

~~In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which provides specific guidance to determine whether an entity is providing a specified good or service itself or is arranging for the good or service to be provided by another party.~~

~~In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (Topic 606) Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which clarifies the subjects of identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation guidance.~~

~~In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients~~, which provides additional clarification on criteria within ASU 2014-09 as well as additional guidance for transition to the new revenue recognition criteria. ASU 2014-09 further requires new disclosures about contracts with customers, including disclosing performance obligations to customers arising from certain promotional activity, such as our customer loyalty program and the significant judgments the Company has made when applying the guidance.

The requirements for these standards relating to Topic 606 ~~will be~~were effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017.

2.~~DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS~~ UNCONSOLIDATED VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES

~~Spin-Off~~On December 25, 2016, the Company completed a spin-off (the "Spin-Off") of ~~Bagger Dave's~~

~~On August 4, 2016, DRH announced that its Board of Directors unanimously approved a plan to pursue a tax-free spin-off of its~~19 Bagger Dave's ~~business. Pursuant to this plan, DRH contributed its 100.0% owned entity, AMC Burgers, LLC~~entities and certain real estate entities which house the respective Bagger Dave's entities previously owned by DRH into a new independent publicly traded company, Bagger Dave's Burger Tavern, Inc.~~, a newly created Nevada company, which was then spun-off into a stand-alone company. AMC Burgers, Inc. owned and operated all of the~~ ("Bagger ~~Dave's Burger Tavern~~^® restaurants and the real estate entities held certain real estate related to the restaurants before the real estate was sold in 2014 and 2015. In connection with the Spin-Off, DRH contributed certain assets, liabilities and employees related to its Bagger Dave's businesses. Intercompany balances due to/from DRH, which included amounts from sales, were contributed to equity of Bagger Dave's. The Spin-Off was effected on December 25, 2016 via a one-for-one distribution of common shares in Bagger Dave's to DRH holders of record on December 19, 2016.

As part of the Spin-Off transaction, DRH agreed to fund a one-time $2.0 million cash distribution to Bagger Dave's and agreed that, if deemed necessary within twelve months after the date of the Spin-Off, up to $1 million of additional cash funding may be considered upon approval by DRH and its lenders. As of December 31, 2017, this provision had lapsed and no additional funding was provided.

Prior to the Spin-Off, Bagger Dave’s was a co-obligor on a joint and several basis with the Company on its $155.0 million senior secured credit facility. The Company’s debt under this facility remained with the Company and Bagger Dave’s was released as a borrower. As a result, this debt was not assigned to discontinued operations. Additionally, DRH retained substantially all of the tax benefits (net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards) generated by Bagger Dave's prior to the date of the transaction.

DRH decided to spin-off Bagger Dave's after considering all reasonable strategic and structural alternatives because of the disparity between the operating models of its two brands, BWW as franchisee, and Bagger Dave's as an owned concept. The management teams of Bagger Dave's and DRH agreed that the nature of the two concepts varied greatly, and that each would be more valuable and operate more effectively independently of one another. Bagger Dave's is a concept developed by the management team of DRH. In contrast to operating a franchised concept like BWW, it has no development restrictions and the flexibility to enhance brand attributes such as logos, trade dress and restaurant design, change its menu offering and improve its operational model in an effort to better align with guest expectations. To manage these functions effectively, specific resources are required that are not necessary for a franchisee. For example, menu development, purchasing and brand marketing are critical to the success of Bagger Dave's but not necessary for a BWW franchisee since these functions are managed by the franchisor. Additionally, as a start-up brand, Bagger Dave's has both higher risk and higher growth potential while BWW, being a mature brand and as a franchisee, has more limited organic growth potential due to the status of its existing market penetration and the need to obtain development rights from the franchisor.

~~In conjunction with the Spin-Off, DRH entered into a transition services agreement (the "TSA"~~Dave's") with Bagger Dave's pursuant to which DRH provided certain information technology and human resources support, limited accounting support, and other minor administrative functions at no charge. The TSA was intended to assist the discontinued component in efficiently and seamlessly transitioning to stand on its own. Certain provisions of the TSA terminated in December 2017 and the First Amendment to TSA (the "Amended TSA") was entered into effective January 1, 2018. Under the Amended TSA, DRH will provide ongoing administrative support to Bagger Dave's in certain areas, including information technology, human resources and real estate, in exchange for a fee based on a rate-per-hour of service. The amount charged to Bagger Dave’s was $13,680 and $0, $27,360 and $0 during the three-month periods ended July 1, 2018 and June 25, 2017 and six-month periods ended July 1, 2018 and June 25, 2017, respectively.

~~Information related to the Bagger Dave's Spin-Off has been reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as follows:~~

Consolidated Statements of Operations - Bagger Dave's results of operations for the three and six month period ended June 25, 2017 have been presented as discontinued operations. There was no activity related to the discontinued operation at the Company for the three and six month period ended July 1, 2018.

Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows - The Bagger Dave's cash flows from operating and investing activities for the six-month period ended June 25, 2017 have been presented separately on the face of the cash flow statement. There was no activity related to the discontinued operation at the Company for the three and six month period ended July 1, 2018.

~~Table of Contents~~

~~DIVERSIFIED RESTAURANT HOLDINGS, INC.~~

~~NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

The operating results of the discontinued operations include only direct expenses incurred by Bagger Dave’s. Discontinued operations exclude certain corporate functions that were previously allocated to Bagger Dave’s. Interest expense was not allocated to discontinued operations because the Company’s debt under the $155 million secured credit facility remained with the Company.

Prior to the Spin-Off, Bagger Dave's was a reportable segment of the Company. Following the Spin-Off, there were no assets or liabilities remaining from the Bagger Dave's operations as of December 25, 2016. See Note 3 for a discussion of involvement the Company will continue to have with Bagger Dave's after the Spin-Off.

~~3. UNCONSOLIDATED VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES~~

. After the Spin-Off, ~~of Bagger Dave’s and the related discontinuation of its operations described in Note 2,~~ the Company remains involved with certain activities that result in Bagger Dave’s being considered a Variable Interest Entity ("VIE"). This conclusion results primarily from the existence of guarantees by the Company of certain Bagger Dave’s leases as described below under "Lease Guarantees". While the Company holds a variable interest in Bagger Dave’s, it is not considered to be its primary beneficiary because it does not have the power to direct the activities of Bagger Dave’s. Specifically, we considered the fact that, although our Executive Chairman and acting President and Chief Executive Officer is currently also on Bagger Dave’s board, there are no agreements in place that require him to vote in the interests of the Company, as he does not represent the Company in his capacity as a Bagger Dave’s director. As a result, the Company does not consolidate the VIE.

Lease Guarantees

At ~~July 1, 2018,~~June 30, 2019, the Company is a guarantor for 129 leases, three of which have been re-leased to an unaffiliated ~~party.~~parties. In the event the respective lessees cannot make their lease payments, the Company may become responsible for the payments under its guarantee.

Upon the Spin-Off of Bagger Dave's, in accordance with ASC 460, Guarantees, the Company evaluated its liability from the lease guarantees first by estimating the non-contingent component representing the estimated fair market value of the guarantees at inception, and recorded a liability. As of ~~July 1, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and December ~~31, 2017,~~30, 2018, the liability is $0.3 million, and it is included in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. NoPrior to the Spin-Off, no liability had ~~previously~~ been recorded as a result of the affiliate relationship between the Company and Bagger Dave’s.

Secondly, the Company considered the contingent component of the guarantees and concluded that, as of ~~July 1, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and December ~~31, 2017,~~30, 2018, no loss under the guarantees was probable because all ~~but two~~ of the Bagger Dave's restaurants subject to the guaranteed leases isare either currently operating or the site has been leased to another tenant who is responsible for, and making, the lease payments. With respect to the two Bagger Dave's locations that have been closed and not re-leased, Bagger Dave's is continuing to make the lease payments while it either seeks a new tenant for the site or negotiates an exit from the liability with the landlord.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company has determined that its maximum exposure resulting from the lease guarantees includes approximately ~~$7.8~~$6.9 million of future minimum lease payments plus potential additional payments to satisfy maintenance, property tax and insurance requirements under the leases as of ~~July 1, 2018.~~June 30, 2019. The terms and conditions of the guarantees vary, and each guarantee has an expiration date which may or may not correspond with the end of the underlying lease term. The guarantee expiration dates range from less than 58 months to 1211 years as of ~~July 1, 2018.~~June 30, 2019. In the event that the Company is required to perform under any of its lease guarantees, we do not believe the liability would be material because we would first seek to minimize the exposure by finding a suitable tenant to lease the space. In many cases, we expect that a replacement tenant would be ~~found.~~found and the lessor would agree to release the Company from its future guarantee obligation. In reaching our conclusion, we also considered the following:

the financial condition of Bagger Dave’s, including its ability to service the lease payments on the locations it continues to operate;

its history of incurring operating losses;

its liquidity position and the actions available to it should its liquidity deteriorate to such a degree that its ability to service required lease payments is threatened; and

the actions available to the Company to avoid or mitigate potential losses should Bagger Dave's become unable to service one or more of the leases that the Company guarantees.

On June 29, 2015, the Company entered into ~~a five year $155.0 million senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of lenders led by Citizens (the “Senior Secured~~the Credit ~~Facility”)~~Facility with a senior lien on all the Company’s personal property and fixtures. The ~~Senior Secured~~ Credit Facility ~~consists~~initially consisted of a $120.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”), a $30.0 million development line of credit (the “DLOC”) and a $5.0 million revolving line of credit (the “RLOC”).

On December 23, 2016, the Company amended the ~~Senior Secured~~ Credit Facility (the "December 2016 Amendment") for purposes of, among other things, releasing the Bagger Dave’s entities as borrowers and releasing all related liens on the Bagger Dave’s assets. In addition, the amendment (a) converted the amounts then outstanding under the DLOC to a development facility term loan (the “DF Term Loan” and, together with the Term Loan, the "Term Loans"), (b) canceled $6.8 million previously available under the DLOC, and (c) extended the maturity date on the remaining $5.0 million under the DLOC to June 29, 2018. Upon the maturity of the DLOC on June 29, 2018, the amount outstanding under the DLOC was added to the existing DF Term Loan.

Payments of principal are based upon a 12-year straight-line amortization schedule, with monthly principal payments of $980,906 on the Term Loans, plus accrued interest. As of ~~July 1,~~June 30, 2019 and December 30, 2018, $5.0 million was outstanding under the RLOC. The entire remaining outstanding principal and accrued interest on the ~~Senior Secured~~ Credit Facility is due and payable on the maturity date of June 29, 2020.

The interest rate for each of the loans, as selected by the borrower, is based upon either a LIBOR or base rate (generally Prime or Fed Funds) plus an applicable margin, which ranges from 2.25% to 3.5% for LIBOR loans and from 1.25% to 2.5% for base rate loans, depending on the lease adjusted leverage ratio as defined in the agreement.

Fees related to the ~~Term Loans~~term debt are recorded as debt ~~discount and fees related to the DLOC and RLOC are capitalized as intangible assets.~~discount. Debt issuance costs represent legal, consulting and financial costs associated with debt financing. As a result of the December 2016 Amendment, the Company incurred $197,889 of debt issuance costs recorded as a part of debt discount. Debt discount related to term debt, net of accumulated amortization totaled ~~$517,588~~$259,077 and ~~$503,271~~$387,245 at ~~July 1, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and December ~~31, 2017,~~30, 2018, respectively. Debt discount and debt issuance cost are amortized over the life of the debt and are recorded in interest expense using the effective interest method.

For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018 and ~~June 25, 2017 and~~ six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018 ~~and June 25, 2017~~ interest expense was $1.5 million and $1.6 million, ~~each, $3.3~~$3.0 million and ~~$3.2~~$3.3 million, respectively.

The ~~Senior Secured~~ Credit Facility ~~as amended,~~agreement contains various customary financial covenants generally based on the ~~performance~~earnings of the ~~specific borrowing entity and other related entities.~~Company relative to its debt. The ~~more significant~~financial covenants consist of a quarterly minimum required debt service coverage ratio ("DSCR") and a maximum ~~lease adjusted leverage ratio. On June 30, 2017 and February 28, 2018, the Company further amended the Senior Secured Credit Facility for purposes of revising the maximum~~permitted lease adjusted leverage ratio ~~and~~("LALR") which were reset pursuant to an amendment dated February 28, 2018. This amendment also changed the ~~minimum consolidated debt service coverage ratio and revising certain definitions impacting~~definition of "consolidated EBITDA" used in the calculation of these financial covenants to permit the ~~ratios. As~~inclusion of a maximum of $5 million of equity proceeds over the remaining term of the Credit Facility agreement.

On July 1,24, 2018, the Company iscompleted an underwritten registered public offering of 6 million shares of common stock at a public offering price of $1.00 per share, which included 700,000 shares offered by a certain selling stockholder, for total Company gross proceeds of $5.3 million. The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $4.6 million after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and offering expenses payable by us, and were included in "consolidated EBITDA" for purposes of computing financial covenants beginning in the third quarter of 2018.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with ~~the~~its loan covenants. However, beginning in the third quarter of 2019, the net proceeds from the registered public offering will no longer be included in "consolidated EBITDA" and, as a result, the Company is currently forecasting that it may not be in compliance with these financial covenants beginning in the third quarter of 2019. Unless we obtain a waiver for, or amendment of the financial covenants prior to being out of compliance, which requires that lenders representing at least 50.1% of the outstanding principal amount are in agreement, failure to comply with the financial covenants would represent an event of default under the Credit Facility agreement, as amended, and would allow the lenders to accelerate repayment of the debt.

Table of Contents

9. LEASES

General Lease Information

As of June 30, 2019, we operated 64 Company-owned restaurants, all of which are leased properties. Our restaurants range in size from approximately 5,300 square feet to 13,500 square feet with the majority of our restaurants located in stand-alone buildings and/or end-cap positions in strip malls, with a few being in strip mall in-line positions. The Company's initial restaurant lease terms ~~generally include renewal options,~~range from 10-20 years and frequently require us to pay variable lease costs, which include a proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance, and other operating costs. Typically, our restaurant operating lease renewal options allow us to extend the lease terms for periods of five to 10 years, though the options are not recognized in the ROU assets or lease liabilities. Some restaurant leases provide for contingent rental payments ~~based on~~payable only when sales exceed certain thresholds.

~~Total rent expense was $2.2 million~~ The sales thresholds were not met and ~~$2.2 million, $4.5 million and $4.4 million for~~no contingent rental payments were incurred during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018 and ~~June 25, 2017 and~~ six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018. Most of our real estate leases incorporate incremental rent increases based on the passage of time.

An election was made by the Company to not account for short-term leases of 12 months or less on the balance sheet.

Significant Assumptions and Judgments

Allocation of consideration - The Company has non-real estate leases that contain both a service component and equipment. In most cases, the Company has obtained stand-alone pricing from our vendors for the restaurant equipment that is leased in order to allocate the contract consideration between the lease and non-lease components.

Discount rate - The Company does not know the rate implicit in its leases and, as a result, we use our estimated incremental borrowing rate. The estimated rate is based on a risk free rate plus a risk-adjusted margin. We believe that this rate is indicative of a fully-collateralized borrowing rate that would have been used in the particular circumstances of our leases.

~~14.~~ FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The guidance for fair value measurements, FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes the authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and outlines the required disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use a three-tier fair value hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs as follows:



●	Level 1	Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

●	Level 2	Inputs, other than level 1 inputs, either directly or indirectly observable; and

●	Level 3	Unobservable inputs developed using internal estimates and assumptions (there is little or no market data) which reflect those that market participants would use.

As of ~~July 1, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and December ~~31, 2017,~~30, 2018, respectively, our financial instruments consisted of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, interest rate swaps, lease guarantee liability, and debt. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate carrying value, due to their short-term nature.

The fair value of our interest rate swaps is determined based on valuation models, which utilize quoted interest rate curves to calculate the forward value and then discount the forward values to the present period. The Company measures the fair value using broker quotes, which are generally based on observable market inputs including yield curves and the value associated with counterparty credit risk. Our interest rate swaps are classified as a Level 2 measurement as these securities are not actively traded in the market, but are observable based on transactions associated with bank loans with similar terms and maturities. See Note 76 for additional information pertaining to interest rates swaps.

The fair value of our lease guarantee liability was determined by calculating the present value of the difference between the estimated rate at which the Company and Bagger Dave’s could borrow money in a duration similar to the underlying lease guarantees. Our lease guarantees are classified as a Level 2 measurement as there is no actively traded market for such instruments.

As of ~~July 1, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and December ~~31, 2017,~~30, 2018, our total debt was approximately ~~$108.2~~$96.6 million and ~~$113.9~~$102.4 million, respectively, which approximated fair value because the applicable interest rates are adjusted frequently based on short-term market rates (Level 2).

There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the three and six month period ended ~~July 1, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and the fiscal year ended December ~~31, 2017.~~30, 2018.

The following table presents the fair values for those assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2019:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three-month ~~period~~periods ended June 30, 2019 ("Second Quarter 2019") and July 1, 2018 ("Second Quarter 2018"), revenue was generated ~~from the operations of 65 restaurants. For the three-month period ended June 25, 2017 ("Second Quarter 2017"), revenue was generated~~ primarily from the operations of 64 and 65 restaurants, ~~(the 65th restaurant commenced operations in June 2017).~~respectively. Quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, including the timing and number of new restaurant openings and related expenses, increases or decreases in same store sales, changes in commodity prices, general economic conditions, and seasonal fluctuations. As a result, our quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for any future period. Same store sales are generally defined as a restaurant's comparable sales in the first full month after the 18^th month of operation. However, restaurants may be excluded from comparable sales as a result of other factors including, remodel-related closures or significant construction impacts. Changes in comparable restaurant sales reflect changes in sales for the comparable group of restaurants over a specified period of time. Our comparable restaurant base consisted of ~~64 and 61~~63 restaurants at both June 30, 2019 and July 1, 2018, ~~and June 25, 2017,~~ respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On June 29, 2015, the Company entered into ~~a five-year $155.0 million senior secured credit facility with a syndicate of lenders led by Citizens (the “Senior Secured~~the Credit ~~Facility”)~~Facility with a senior lien on all the Company’s personal property and fixtures. The ~~Senior Secured~~ Credit Facility ~~consists~~initially consisted of ~~a $120.0 million term loan (the “Term Loan”), a $30.0 million development line of credit (the “DLOC”)~~the Term Loan, the DLOC and ~~a $5.0 million revolving line of credit (the “RLOC”).~~the RLOC.

On December 23, 2016, the Company amended the ~~Senior Secured~~ Credit Facility for purposes of, among other things, releasing the Bagger Dave’s entities as borrowers and releasing all related liens on the Bagger Dave’s assets. In addition, the amendment (a) converted the amounts then outstanding under the DLOC to ~~a development facility term loan (the “DF~~the DF Term ~~Loan” and, together with the Term~~ Loan, ~~the "Term Loans"),~~ (b) canceled $6.8 million previously available under the DLOC, and (c) extended the maturity date on the remaining $5.0 million under the DLOC to June 29, 2018. Upon the maturity of the DLOC on June 29, 2018, the amount outstanding under the DLOC was added to the existing DF Term Loan.

Payments of principal are based upon a 12-year straight-line amortization schedule, with monthly principal payments of $980,906 on the Term Loans, plus accrued interest. As of ~~July 1, 2018,~~June 30, 2019, $5.0 million was outstanding under the RLOC. The entire remaining outstanding principal and accrued interest on the ~~Senior Secured~~ Credit Facility is due and payable on the maturity date of June 29, 2020.

The interest rate for each of the loans, as selected by the borrower, is based upon either a LIBOR or base rate (generally Prime or Fed Funds) plus an applicable margin, which ranges from 2.25% to 3.5% for LIBOR loans and from 1.25% to 2.5% for base rate loans, depending on the ~~lease adjusted leverage ratio~~LALR as defined in the ~~agreement.~~Credit Facility agreement, as amended.

Going Concern

The ~~Senior Secured~~ Credit Facility ~~as amended,~~ contains various customary financial covenants generally based on the performance of the Company. The financial covenants consist of a quarterly minimum required ~~debt service coverage ratio (the "DSCR")~~DSCR and a maximum permitted ~~lease adjusted leverage ratio (the "LALR").

Credit Facility agreement, as amended.

On July 24, 2018 the Company completed an underwritten registered public offering of 6 million shares of common stock at a public offering price of $1.00 per share, which included 700,000 shares offered by a certain selling stockholder, for total Company gross proceeds of $5.3 million. ~~DRH also granted the underwriter an option for a period of 30 days to purchase up to an additional 450,000 shares of its common stock to cover over-allotments, if any.

While the Company has successfully negotiated financial covenant amendments in the past and would seek to do so again should it be in default or near a ~~shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-225457)~~default, there can be no assurance that ~~was filed~~it will be successful in obtaining a satisfactory amendment.

The Company is also exploring various other alternatives. There can be no assurance, however, that any such efforts will be successful.

WeUntil such time as the Company has executed an agreement to amend, refinance or replace the Credit Facility, the Company cannot conclude that it is probable that it will do so and, accordingly, this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Except as noted above, we believe that our current cash balance, in addition to our cash flow from operations, will be sufficient to fund our present operations and meet our commitments on our existing debt ~~for~~until the ~~next twelve months.~~June 2020 maturity of the Credit Facility. However, if our forecasts are wrong or working capital needs arise that require additional financing, we believe that our current leverage level and business performance would result in rates and terms for additional debt financing that would be unattractive, if additional financing is available at all. Therefore, if necessary, we may seek to issue additional shares of common or preferred stock to raise funds.

Outside of funding our current operations and servicing our existing debt, our capital requirements are primarily dependent upon our restaurant remodel requirements and the pace of our new restaurant growth plan.

We believe that reinvesting in existing restaurants is an important factor and necessary to maintain the overall positive dining experience for our guests and, as a result, we have historically invested heavily in refreshes and upgrades. Depending on the age of the existing restaurants, upgrades have ranged from $50,000 (for minor interior refreshes or audio/video upgrades) to $1.3 million (for a full extensive remodel of the ~~restaurant)~~restaurant with the addition of an enclosed patio). ~~We currently target remodels~~While BWW is in the process of ~~no more than $0.5 million~~developing a new building design standard and testing a variety of remodel options, they have communicated to ~~upgrade~~franchisees that they are targeting a ~~typical BWW restaurant~~three-tier remodel program with cost ranging from $250,00 to $650,000, depending on the ~~Stadia design.~~size and revenue profile of the restaurant.

Net cash provided by operating activities consisted primarily of net earnings adjusted for non-cash expenses.

After the Spin-Off of Bagger Dave’s, the Company retained certain tax benefits (net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards) and, since the Spin-Off, the Company has generated additional tax benefits which, together, will offset pre-tax income totaling over $75 million at current estimated tax rates. We do not expect to incur significant federal and/or state income tax liabilities until our tax benefits have been fully utilized.

Mandatory Upgrades

In fiscal year ~~2018,~~2019, we do not ~~currently expect~~plan to complete, nor are we required by ~~BWLD~~BWW to complete, any remodels.

Discretionary Upgrades ~~and Relocations~~

In fiscal year ~~2018,~~2019, the Company plans to invest additional capital to provide for minor facility upgrades and general maintenance-type investments in our restaurants, all of which we expect to fund with cash from operations. We do not expect to develop any new restaurants or complete any remodels of our existing restaurants. In fiscal year 2018, we do not have any planned relocations. The decision to relocate is typically driven by timing of our current lease agreements and the availability of real estate that we deem to be a better long-term investment. Relocations are funded by a combination of cash from operations and borrowing from our credit facility.

Impact of Inflation

Our profitability is dependent, among other things, on our ability to anticipate and react to changes in the costs of key operating resources, including food and other raw materials, labor, energy, and other supplies and services. Substantial increases in costs and expenses could impact our operating results to the extent that such increases cannot be passed along to our restaurant guests. The impact of inflation on food, labor, energy and occupancy costs can significantly affect the profitability of our restaurant operations.

All of our non-management restaurant team members are paid hourly rates related to the federal and state minimum wage and in many cases, the federal or state tipped minimum wage. Certain operating costs, such as taxes, insurance, and other outside services continue to increase with the general level of inflation or higher and may also be subject to other cost and supply fluctuations outside of our control.

While we have been able to partially offset inflation and other changes in the costs of key operating resources by ~~gradually~~ increasing prices for our menu items, more efficient purchasing practices, productivity improvements, and greater economies of scale, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so in the future. From time to time, competitive conditions could limit our menu pricing flexibility. In addition, macroeconomic conditions could make additional menu price increases imprudent. There can be no assurance that all future cost increases can be offset by increased menu prices or that increased menu prices will be fully absorbed by our restaurant guests without any resulting changes in their visit frequencies or purchasing patterns. There can be no assurance that we will continue to generate increases in comparable restaurant sales in amounts sufficient to offset inflationary or other cost pressures.

After the Spin-Off, the Company remains liable for guarantees of certain Bagger Dave’s leases. These guarantees cover 129 separate leases, several of which relate to restaurants previously closed and are being operated by a new tenant under either a sub-lease or a new lease.

The Company has determined that its maximum exposure resulting from the lease guarantees includes approximately ~~$7.8~~$6.9 million of future minimum lease payments plus potential additional payments to satisfy maintenance, property tax and insurance requirements under the leases as of ~~July 1, 2018.~~June 30, 2019. The terms and conditions of the guarantees vary, and each guarantee has an expiration date which may or may not correspond with the end of the underlying lease term. These expiration dates range from less than 58 months to 1211 years as of ~~July 1, 2018.~~June 30, 2019. In the event that the Company is required to perform under any of its lease guarantees, we do not believe a liability to the Company would be material because it would first seek to minimize its exposure by finding a suitable tenant to sub-lease the space. In many cases, we expect that a replacement tenant would be found and the lessor would agree to release the Company from its future guarantee obligation.

In conjunction with the Spin-Off, DRH entered into a transition services agreement (the "TSA") with Bagger Dave's pursuant to which DRH provided certain information technology and human resources support, limited accounting support, and other minor administrative functions at no charge. The TSA was intended to assist the discontinued component in efficiently and seamlessly transitioning to stand on its own. Certain provisions of the TSA terminated in December 2017 and the First Amendment to TSA (the "Amended TSA") was entered into effective January 1, 2018. Under the Amended TSA, DRH ~~will provide~~provides ongoing administrative support to Bagger Dave's in certain areas, including information technology, human resources and real estate, in exchange for a fee based on a rate-per-hour of service.

Impact of New Accounting Standards

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our critical accounting policies have not changed materially from those previously reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December ~~31, 2017.~~30, 2018.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risks

Not applicable for smaller reporting companies.

~~Table of Contents~~

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

We are required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that material information related to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

Conclusion regarding the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures

As of ~~July 1, 2018,~~June 30, 2019, an evaluation was performed under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~July 1, 2018.~~June 30, 2019.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended ~~July 1, 2018~~June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2019, we implemented controls to ensure we adequately evaluated our contracts and properly assessed the impact of the new lease accounting standard on our financial statements to facilitate adoption of the standard on December 31, 2018. We implemented lease administration software to support our accounting for leases and have integrated the new software functionality with our processes, systems and controls.

Our process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures and the remediation of any deficiencies that may be identified during this process.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are occasionally a defendant in litigation arising in the ordinary course of our business, including claims arising from personal injuries, contract claims, dram shop claims, employment-related claims, and claims from guests or team members alleging injury, illness, or other food quality, health, or operational concerns. To date, none of these types of litigation, most of which are entirely or predominantly covered by insurance, has had a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations. We have insured and continue to insure against most of these types of claims. A judgment on any claim not covered by or in excess of our insurance coverage could materially adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we are not a party to any material pending legal proceedings and are not aware of any claims that could have a materially adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s risk factors as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2017.~~2018.

If we fail to comply with the continued listing requirements of the NASDAQ Capital Market, our common stock may be delisted and the price of our common stock and our ability to access the capital markets could be negatively ~~impacted~~.impacted.

On ~~June 22, 2018, we~~April 17, 2019, the Company received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that, for the prior 30 consecutive business days (through ~~June 21, 2018)~~April 16, 2019), the market value of the Company’s listed securities (“MVLS”) had been below the minimum of $35 million required for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). The notification letter stated that the Company would be afforded 180 calendar days (until October 14, 2019) to regain compliance. In order to regain compliance, the Company’s MVLS must remain at $35 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. The notification letter also states that in the event the Company does not regain compliance within the 180 day period, the Company’s securities may be subject to delisting and that, at that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel. The Company intends to consider all available options to regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing standards.

On June 6, 2019, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq stating that, for the prior 30 consecutive business days (through June 5, 2019), the closing bid price of the Company’s listed securities had been below the minimum of $1.00 per share required for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The notification letter stated that the Company would be afforded 180 calendar days (until December 3, 2019) to regain compliance. In order to regain compliance, the Company’s closing bid price must remain at $1.00 or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. The notification letter also states that in the event the Company does not regain compliance within the 180 day period, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 days to regain compliance. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Nasdaq staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq staff will provide notice to the Company that its securities will be subject to delisting. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel, but there can be no assurance that the Company's request for continued listing would be granted. Delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market could adversely affect the liquidity and the price of the Company's common stock and the Company's ability to raise future capital through the sale of the Company's common stock.
