Greenwood Village, CO — (BUSINESS WIRE) — November 2, 2006 — Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. (Nasdaq: RRGB), the casual dining company that serves up fun, feel-good experiences by offering its guests an imaginative selection of high-quality gourmet burgers and innovative menu items in a family-friendly environment, today reported financial results for the twelve weeks and forty weeks ended October 1, 2006. These financial results include the results for the 13 Red Robin franchised restaurants in the state of Washington, 11 of which were purchased on July 10, 2006 and two restaurants which are operated under a management agreement.

This one-time charge has been classified as a significant and unusual item on the Company’s statement of income in the third fiscal quarter of 2006. The Company also provided guidance for the fourth fiscal quarter 2006 and updated its outlook for the full year 2006.

· 25 Company-owned restaurants and 8 franchised restaurants were opened in the forty week period
As of the end of the third fiscal quarter of 2006, there were 199 Company-owned Red Robin® restaurants, including the 11 acquired franchise restaurants, and 133 franchised Red Robin® restaurants.
Beginning with the first fiscal quarter of 2006, the Company adopted the requirements related to expensing stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised
2004), “Share-based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”) on a modified prospective basis. The impact to diluted earnings per share from stock compensation expense for the third fiscal quarter of 2006 and the fiscal year to date were $0.05 and $0.18, respectively. Before the impact of stock compensation expense and the significant and unusual items, the net income for the third fiscal quarter of 2006 would have increased 4.7% to $7.9 million and net income per diluted share would have increased 4.4% to $0.47. For the year to date, the net income excluding stock compensation expense and significant and unusual items would have increased 7.1% to $24.6 million and net income per diluted share would have increased 7.3% to $1.47 per diluted share. Schedule II of this earnings release reconciles the impact of stock compensation expense and the significant and unusual items on the third fiscal quarter and year to date 2006 and 2005 net income and earnings per share.
“While we were pleased with our overall results in the third quarter, recent trends require us to take a more deliberate approach to enhancing unit volumes and brand awareness in our newer markets. We will also be pursuing a more conservative new restaurant opening growth plan as we continue to aggressively reduce restaurant construction costs to improve our returns. This more conservative growth plan reflects our commitment to allocate shareholder capital prudently to enhance our return on capital investments.” said Dennis Mullen, chairman and chief executive officer.
Third Fiscal Quarter 2006 Results
Comparable restaurant sales increased 0.8% for Company-owned restaurants in the third fiscal quarter of 2006 compared to the third fiscal quarter of 2005, driven by a 1.4% increase in the average guest check, offset by a 0.6% decrease in guest counts. Average weekly comparable sales for Company-owned restaurants were $62,767 for the third fiscal quarter of 2006, compared to $63,467 for the third fiscal quarter a year ago. Average weekly sales for non-comparable Company-owned restaurants were $54,704 for the third fiscal quarter of 2006, compared to $58,665 for the third fiscal quarter a year ago. Average weekly comparable sales for the 13 acquired restaurants were $85,656 for the third fiscal quarter of 2006.
Total Company revenues, which include Company-owned restaurant sales and franchise royalties and fees, increased 30.1% to $148.6 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2006, compared to $114.2 million in the prior year’s third fiscal quarter. The Company’s franchise royalties and fees increased 1.6% to $3.2 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2006, compared to $3.2 million in the comparable period a year ago. The third fiscal quarter 2006 franchise royalties exclude the royalty revenue from the 11 acquired and two managed franchise restaurants in Washington State.
The following U.S. based franchise results exclude the third fiscal quarter of 2006 results for the 13 franchised restaurants in Washington State. For the third fiscal quarter of 2006, Red Robin’s franchise system reported a decrease in total U.S. franchise restaurant sales of 0.7% to $75.3 million, compared to $75.8 million in the prior year period.

The third fiscal quarter of 2006 included approximately $0.2 million in stock compensation expense, which approximated 0.1% of restaurant revenue. Third fiscal quarter 2006 margins, excluding stock compensation expense, were negatively impacted by higher restaurant operating costs, which were somewhat offset by lower cost of sales.

Year to Date Results
Comparable restaurant sales increased 3.1% for Company-owned restaurants in the forty weeks ended October 1, 2006, over the year ago comparable period, driven by a 1.7% increase in guest counts and a 1.4% increase in the average guest check. Comparable sales in the forty weeks ended October 1, 2006 for franchise restaurants in the U.S. and Canada increased 3.0% and 8.9%, respectively, over the year ago comparable period.
Total Company revenues, which include Company-owned restaurant sales and franchise royalties and fees, increased 23.1% to $455.0 million for the forty weeks ended October 1, 2006, compared to $369.5 million for the forty weeks ended October 2, 2005. Average weekly comparable sales for Company-owned restaurants were $64,542 for the forty weeks ended October 1, 2006, compared to $63,976 for the forty weeks ended October 2, 2005. Average weekly non-comparable sales for Company-owned restaurants were $56,673 for the forty weeks ended October 1, 2006, compared to $59,543 for the forty weeks ended October 2, 2005. The Company’s franchise royalties and fees for the forty weeks ended October 1, 2006 increased 12.6% to $11.8 million compared to $10.4 million in the comparable period a year ago. The year to date 2006 franchise royalties exclude the royalty revenue from the 11 acquired and two managed franchise restaurants in Washington State beginning in the third fiscal quarter of 2006.
For the forty weeks ended October 1, 2006, Red Robin’s franchise system reported an increase in total U.S. franchise restaurant sales of 12.6%, to $279.7 million, compared to $248.5 million in the forty weeks ended October 2, 2005.

Restaurant-level operating profit margin was 21.1% for the first forty weeks of 2006 compared to 21.6% for the comparable period of 2005. The forty weeks of 2006 includes stock compensation expense of $0.7 million, or approximately 0.2% of restaurant revenue. The 2006 year to date margin decrease of 0.3%, excluding $0.7 million of stock compensation expense, was primarily the result of higher labor and restaurant operating costs, which were offset by lower cost of sales and occupancy costs.
The Company’s restaurant-level operating profit metric does not represent income from operations or net income calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Schedule I of this earnings release reconciles restaurant-level operating profit to income from operations and net income for all periods presented.
General and administrative expense was $38.1 million for the first forty weeks of 2006 compared to $27.5 million for the same period of 2005, which were 8.4% and 7.4% of total revenue in their respective periods. Included in general and administrative expense for forty weeks of 2006 was $3.9 million in stock compensation expense, which approximated 0.9% of total revenue, and for which there was no comparable expense last year. Excluding stock compensation expense, the 0.1% increase in the general and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenue was primarily due to higher marketing costs and legal fees incurred in 2006.
Net income for the forty weeks ended October 1, 2006 was $20.5 million or $1.23 per diluted share, compared to net income of $21.9 million or $1.31 per diluted share in the prior year period. Net income for the first forty weeks of 2006 includes $4.6 million in pre-tax stock compensation expense, or $0.18 per diluted share, after tax. Net income for the forty weeks ended October 2, 2005 includes two significant and unusual items, which reduced income from operations by approximately $1.5 million, and diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.06, and net income for the forty weeks ended October 1, 2006 includes a significant and unusual item which reduced diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.06.
Outlook
The Company has updated its fiscal full year 2006 expectations, and is providing guidance for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2006. For the fourth fiscal quarter of 2006, which is a thirteen week quarter, the Company expects total revenues between $156 million and $158 million and net income of $0.33 to $0.38 per diluted share. This net income includes the impact of stock compensation expense (SFAS No. 123R) of approximately $0.05 per diluted share but excludes the one-time charge of approximately $0.01 associated with the anticipated acquisition of the two restaurants, currently under management, for restaurants that operated at a royalty rate lower than current market royalty rates. The Company’s GAAP basis fourth quarter 2006 earnings per diluted share are estimated to be between $0.32 to $0.37.
These projected fourth fiscal quarter 2006 results are based upon certain assumptions, including an expected comparable restaurant sales increase of 0% to 0.5%, revenue from non-comparable restaurants achieving approximately 85% of comp restaurant sales volumes in the quarter, and the anticipated opening of 7 new Company-owned and 7 to 8 new franchised restaurants during the quarter. Four Company-owned and 4 new franchised restaurants have already opened during the fourth quarter of 2006. The Company currently has 13 restaurants under construction and the franchisees have 8 restaurants under construction. The Company expects to pursue a more conservative new restaurant growth plan for 2007, and will discuss 2007 planned restaurant openings and fiscal 2007 financial guidance on its fourth quarter and fiscal year end conference call in February.
For the full fiscal year 2006, which is a 53-week year, the Company expects revenues between $611 million and $613 million, and net income of between $1.62 and $1.67 per diluted share down from the previous revenue

guidance of $615 million to $618 million, and net income of between $1.74 and $1.83. This updated net income per diluted share for the full fiscal year of 2006 includes the impact of stock compensation expense (SFAS No. 123R) of approximately $0.23 per diluted share but excludes the one-time charge of approximately $0.07 associated with the franchise acquisitions described above. The Company’s GAAP basis full year 2006 earnings per diluted share are estimated to be between $1.55 and $1.60.
These full fiscal year 2006 projected results are also based upon certain assumptions, including an expected comparable restaurant sales increase of approximately 2.5%, revenue from non-comparable restaurants achieving approximately 85% of comp restaurant sales volumes, and the opening of 32 new Company-owned restaurants and the opening of 15 to 16 new franchised restaurants. Of these new restaurants, 29 new Company-owned restaurants have already opened, while 12 franchised restaurants have already opened.
The Company will provide guidance for fiscal 2007 during the fourth quarter 2006 earnings conference call.

Schedule I
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Restaurant-Level Operating Profit to Income
from Operations and Net Income
The Company defines restaurant-level operating profit to be restaurant revenues minus restaurant-level operating costs, excluding restaurant closures and impairment costs in the event closure or impairment charges are incurred. It does not include general and administrative costs, depreciation and amortization, franchise development costs and pre-opening costs. The Company believes that restaurant-level operating profit is an important measure of financial performance because it is widely regarded in the restaurant industry as a useful metric by which to evaluate restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance. The Company excludes restaurant closure costs as they do not represent a component of the efficiency of continuing operations. Restaurant impairment costs are excluded, because, similar to depreciation and amortization, they represent a non-cash charge for the Company’s investment in its restaurants and not a component of the efficiency of restaurant operations. Restaurant-level operating profit is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and should not be considered in isolation, or as an alternative, to income from operations or net income as indicators of financial performance. Restaurant-level operating profit as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The table below sets forth certain unaudited information for the twelve and forty weeks ended October 1, 2006 and October 2, 2005, expressed as a percentage of total revenues, except for the components of restaurant operating costs, which are expressed as a percentage of restaurant revenues.

Schedule II
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Results to GAAP Results
In addition to the results provided in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) throughout this press release, the Company has provided non-GAAP measurements which present the twelve and forty week periods ended October 1, 2006 year-over-year change in net income and diluted net income per share excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense required under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123R), and the significant and unusual items incurred for both third fiscal quarter periods in 2005 and 2006 as described previously. The Company adopted SFAS 123R beginning in fiscal 2006 using the modified prospective transition method and, as a result, will not retroactively adjust results from prior periods. The non-GAAP measurements are intended to supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that the presentation of these items provides additional information to facilitate the comparison of past and present financial results.
