Second Quarter 2022 Review
Total revenue for the second quarter of 2022 was $79.9 million, up 75.6% from the second quarter of 2021. The increase in year-over-year revenue was driven primarily by the acquisitions of the Village Inn and Bakers Square brands, seven acquired Famous Dave’s restaurants, the Tahoe Joe’s Steakhouse brand acquisition, the Famous Craft Concepts brands acquisition, and the Barrio Queen brand acquisition, along with an increase in dine-in traffic across our brands.
Net income attributable to shareholders was approximately $4.2 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to an income of approximately $15.8 million, or $1.64 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2021. This decrease in net income was mainly attributable to a gain upon debt extinguishment realized in the second quarter of 2021 of approximately $14.1 million. Cash EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased $2.3 million from $5.1��million in the second quarter of 2021 to $7.4 million in the second quarter of 2022. A reconciliation between cash EBITDA and its most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in the accompanying financial tables.
Restaurant-level operating margin as a percentage of restaurant net sales, a non-GAAP measure, was 10.4% for Company-owned restaurants in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to 12.7% in the second quarter of fiscal year 2021. This decrease in restaurant-level operating margin as a percentage of net restaurant sales was due primarily to increases in the cost of food and labor throughout 2021 and the first half of 2022. A reconciliation of restaurant sales to restaurant-level margin is included in the accompanying financial tables. General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended July 3, 2022, and July 4, 2021, represented approximately 7.2% and 10.0% of total revenues, respectively. This decrease in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues was due primarily to the larger increase in total revenue relative to the increase in general and administrative expenses.

BBQ Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BBQ) is an international restaurant company engaged in the business of franchising, ownership and operation of casual and fast casual dining restaurants. As of August 9, 2022, BBQ Holdings has multiple brands with over 100 Company-owned locations and over 200 franchised locations, including ghost kitchens operating out of the kitchen of another restaurant location or shared kitchen space.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), the Company uses non-GAAP measures including those indicated below. These non-GAAP measures exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and are subject to inherent limitations. By providing non-GAAP measures, together with a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure, the Company believes that it is enhancing investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and results of operations. These measures are not intended to be considered in isolation of, as substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures presented may be different from the measures used by other companies. The Company urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, included in the accompanying financial tables.
Cash EBITDA is net income plus asset impairment, estimated lease termination charges and other closing costs, depreciation and amortization, net interest expense, net (gain) loss on disposal of equipment, stock-based compensation, acquisition costs, pre-opening costs, severance, less gain upon debt extinguishment, gain on bargain purchase, other gain, provision (benefit) for income taxes, and non-cash rent.
Free cash flow is the Cash EBITDA less cash paid for property, equipment and leasehold improvements. Adjusted net income (loss) is net income plus asset impairment, estimated lease termination charges and other closing costs, less gain on debt extinguishment, gain on bargain purchase, and other gain. Adjusted earnings per diluted share equals adjusted net income (loss) divided by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming dilution.
Restaurant-level operating margins are equal to net restaurant sales, less restaurant-level food and beverage costs, labor and benefit costs, and operating expenses for Company-owned restaurants.
