Fiesta Restaurant Group, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2020 Results
Both Brands Generated Positive Adjusted EBITDA during Quarter
Company Generated Net Cash Provided by Operations of $24.5 Million during Quarter
Sequential Improvement in Comparable Restaurant Sales Trend Extended through July
DALLAS, Texas – (Business Wire) – August 5, 2020 - Fiesta Restaurant Group, Inc. ("Fiesta" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: FRGI), parent company of the Pollo Tropical® and Taco Cabana® restaurant brands, today reported results for the 13-week second quarter 2020, which ended on June 28, 2020 and provided a business update related to current operations.
Fiesta President and Chief Executive Officer Richard Stockinger said, "We are pleased with our sequential improvement in comparable restaurant sales at both brands, which continued into July. Comp sales run rates at both brands improved from June to July by 350 basis points or more. These encouraging trends have been achieved despite the fact that we operate in Florida and Texas, two of the more challenged states in terms of COVID outbreaks, which drove our decision to again close our dining rooms as of July 12, 2020. As we continue to prioritize the well-being of our team members and guests during this pandemic, we believe we are also evolving to a better business model that is easier and safer for our consumers including expanded delivery options, new curbside and pick-up capabilities, and a much-enhanced online ordering experience. Our new app, developed by BottleRocket, went live for Pollo Tropical in late July and will go live for Taco Cabana in September."
"We also continued to make progress on improving our financial position and liquidity during the quarter. In addition to securing an amendment to our senior credit facility that we believe provides us adequate covenant cushion and liquidity, we generated positive Adjusted EBITDA at both brands for the quarter and also generated net cash provided by operating activities of $24.5 million through better working capital management and positive Adjusted EBITDA from both brands. Since the beginning of the COVID crisis, we have significantly reduced our revolving credit facility(1) and net revolver debt balances(2). At current sales trends, we believe we will continue to improve liquidity."
Mr. Stockinger concluded, "We are proud of our operations team that has continued to keep our restaurants operating safely during this crisis while improving operations efficiency. In the second half of the year, we expect to see the accelerating effects of our off-premise initiatives as they gain traction, including curbside capabilities and our new apps at both brands. We are optimistic about our future and our ability to continue evolving our business model to meet changing market conditions and consumer needs in order to allow our customers to enjoy our brands safely and conveniently across all channels—however the guest chooses."

Cash and Liquidity
• | At the end of the second quarter of 2020, we had $101.4 million in cash and $148.5 million in debt, which includes $146.5 million outstanding under our amended senior credit facility and $2.0 million in capital lease obligations. |
• | As previously announced, we completed the amendment to our senior credit facility on July 10, 2020. Under this amendment, our available revolving credit borrowings under the amended senior credit facility will be reduced from $150 million to $95 million in a phased reduction beginning with a $30 million permanent reduction at the closing of the amendment on July 10, 2020, a $15 million reduction in the fourth quarter of 2020, and a $10 million reduction in the first quarter of 2021. We repaid borrowings under our amended senior credit facility as follows: $30.0 million on July 10, 2020, pursuant to the terms of the amended senior credit facility, and an additional $62.5 million through July 31, 2020. On July 31, 2020, there were $54.0 million in outstanding revolving credit borrowings under our amended senior credit facility. In addition, as of July 31, 2020, we were current on all lease obligations. |
• | We have aggressively cut our capital expenditure budget for 2020. Capital expenditures in the first half of 2020 totaled $8.7 million compared to $21.7 million in the first half of 2019. 2020 full year capital expenditures will not exceed $22.0 million. |
• | From the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic in mid-March through late July, we significantly reduced our total debt, revolving credit facility and net revolver debt(3) balances. On March 18, 2020, we had a total debt balance of $148.4 million, an outstanding revolving credit facility balance (including letters of credit) of $149.9 million and net revolver |

debt(3) of $74.4 million. As of July 31, 2020, our total debt balance was $56.0 million, our outstanding revolving credit facility balance (including letters of credit) was $57.5 million and our net revolver debt (3) was $48.4 million.
• | Working capital efficiency has been significantly improved as a result of vendor payment term extensions and pricing renegotiations, which contributed to cash flows from operations of $24.5 million during the second quarter of 2020. We believe that a significant portion of the improvement in working capital efficiency represent sustainable improvements in cash flow. We are also marketing 16 owned properties for sale or sale-leaseback, which are expected to result in cash flow increases, although there can be no assurance that any such sales or sale-leaseback transactions will be consummated. |
Second Quarter 2020 Brand Results
Total Pollo Tropical restaurant sales decreased 31.7% to $63.3 million in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $92.6 million in the second quarter of 2019 primarily due to a comparable restaurant sales decrease of 31.6%. Comparable restaurant sales for Pollo Tropical accelerated significantly through the second quarter, from a decrease of 49.2% in April to a decrease of 17.8% in June. Off premise sales consisting of online, catering, and delivery orders comprised 11.5% of total restaurant sales in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 4.0% of total restaurant sales in the second quarter of 2019.
Sales cannibalization from new restaurants on existing restaurants negatively impacted comparable restaurant sales by approximately 20 basis points. The decrease in comparable restaurant sales resulted from a 38.2% decrease in comparable restaurant transactions and a 6.6% increase in the net impact of pricing and product/channel mix. The increase in pricing and product/channel mix was driven primarily by increases in delivery and drive-thru average check and sales channel penetration, and menu price increases of 0.2%.
Adjusted EBITDA for Pollo Tropical decreased to $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2020 from $14.6 million in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the impact of lower comparable restaurant sales. Cost of sales, restaurant wages, rent expense, and other restaurant operating expenses increased as a percentage of restaurant sales—driven in large part by the impact of lower comparable restaurant sales. This was partially offset by lower advertising expense. Pollo Tropical incurred incremental costs related to COVID-19 of $1.6 million for the quarter including special incentive pay, quarantine pay, and costs related to masks and sanitizer. In order to support the community, Pollo Tropical also offered additional discounts to first responders and healthcare workers and free kids meals due to school cancellations during the second quarter. Restaurant wages and related expenses increased as a percentage of restaurant sales as a result of COVID-19 incentives and quarantine pay. Driven by efficiency initiatives, management and hourly wage costs as a percentage of sales improved compared to last year by 0.9% (excluding COVID-19 incentives and quarantine pay).
Taco Cabana restaurant sales decreased 25.4% to $58.3 million in the second quarter of 2020 from $78.1 million in the second quarter of 2019 due primarily to a comparable restaurant sales decrease of 19.2% along with a decrease in sales related to closed restaurants. Comparable restaurant sales for Taco Cabana improved through the second quarter, from a decrease of 26.2% in April to a decrease of 18.0% in June. Off premise sales consisting of online, catering, and delivery orders comprised 8.0% of total restaurant sales in the second quarter of 2020 compared to 3.7% of total restaurant sales in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease in comparable restaurant sales resulted from a 29.0% decrease in comparable restaurant transactions and a 9.8% increase in the net impact of product/channel mix. The increase in product/channel mix was driven primarily by increases in drive-thru and delivery sales channel penetration and growth in average check for drive-thru versus last year due in part to an increase in transactions that include alcohol.
Adjusted EBITDA for Taco Cabana decreased to $2.7 million from $4.1 million in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily due to the impact of lower comparable restaurant sales. Restaurant wages, rent expense and other operating expenses increased as a percentage of Taco Cabana restaurant sales—driven in large part by the impact of lower comparable restaurant sales. This was partially offset by lower cost of sales as a percentage of restaurant sales and advertising expense. Taco Cabana incurred incremental costs related to COVID-19 of $1.8 million for the quarter including special incentive pay, quarantine pay, and costs related to masks and sanitizer. In order to support the community, Taco Cabana also offered additional discounts to first responders and healthcare workers and free kids meals due to school cancellations during the second quarter. Restaurant wages and related expenses increased as a percentage of restaurant sales as a result of COVID-19 incentives and quarantine pay. Driven by efficiency initiatives, management and hourly wage costs as a percentage of sales improved compared to last year by 2.1% (excluding COVID-19 incentives and quarantine pay).

(3) | Total debt is comprised of capital lease obligations of $2.0 million as of March 18, 2020 and July 31, 2020 and outstanding revolving credit facility borrowings.

Net revolver debt is a non-GAAP measure which we believe assists investors in understanding of our management of our overall liquidity and financial flexibility. |

Supplemental Non-GAAP Information
The following table sets forth certain unaudited supplemental financial data for the periods indicated
(In thousands):
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) attributable to the applicable operating segments before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment and other lease charges, goodwill impairment, closed restaurant rent expense, net of sublease income, stock-based compensation expense, other expense (income), net, and certain significant items for each segment that are related to strategic changes and/or are not related to the ongoing operation of our restaurants as set forth in the reconciliation table below. Adjusted EBITDA for each of our segments includes an allocation of general and administrative expenses associated with administrative support for executive management, information systems and certain finance, legal, supply chain, human resources, construction and other administrative functions. Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Adjusted EBITDA excluding franchise royalty revenues and fees, pre-opening costs and general and administrative expenses (including corporate-level general and administrative expenses).
Adjusted EBITDA for each of our segments is the primary measure of segment profit or loss used by our chief operating decision maker for purposes of allocating resources to our segments and assessing their performance. In addition, management believes that Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results of operations calculated in accordance with GAAP and our reconciliation of net income (loss) to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA (i) provide useful information about our operating performance and period-over-period changes, (ii) provide additional information that is useful for evaluating the operating performance of our business, and (iii) permit investors to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our ongoing earnings, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced. However, such measures are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as alternatives to net income or cash flow from operating activities as indicators of operating performance or liquidity. Also, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled captions of other companies.

(a) | The provision for (benefit from) income taxes related to the adjustments was calculated using the Company's combined federal statutory and estimated state rate of 23.9% and 24.9% for the periods ending June 28, 2020, and June 30, 2019, respectively. For fiscal years beginning January 1, 2018, our federal statutory tax rate is 21% as a result of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Act") in December 2017. For the six months ended June 28, 2020, we recorded a $1.8 million tax benefit related to prior year net operating losses as a result of a provision in the CARES Act that allows net operating losses from 2018–2020 to be carried back for five years. |
(b) | We recorded an additional valuation allowance of $1.0 million and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2020, respectively, against deferred income tax assets where it was determined to be more likely than not that the deferred income tax assets will not be realized through the reversal of existing deferred tax liabilities. |
(c) | Impairment and other lease charges for the three and six months ended June 28, 2020, consist of impairment charges of $1.6 million and $5.9 million, respectively, and other lease charges of $0.6 million. The impairment charges primarily relate to the write-down of assets held for sale to their fair value for the three and six months ended June 28, 2020 and two underperforming Taco Cabana restaurants and three underperforming Pollo Tropical restaurants that we continue to operate for the six months ended June 28, 2020. The other lease charges |
14
primarily relate to lease termination charges of $0.9 million for restaurant locations we decided not to develop, net of a gain from a lease termination of $(0.2) million.
Impairment and other lease charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily consist of impairment charges of $1.8 million and $2.2 million, respectively, and a lease charge recoveries benefit related to closed restaurant lease terminations of $(0.7) million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The impairment charges primarily related to assets for three underperforming Taco Cabana restaurants that we continue to operate and equipment from previously impaired restaurants.
(d) | Goodwill impairment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 consists of a non-cash impairment charge to write down the value of goodwill for the Taco Cabana reporting unit. |
(e) | Closed restaurant rent expense, net of sublease income for the three and six months ended June 28, 2020, primarily consists of closed restaurant lease costs of $3.0 million and $5.9 million, respectively, partially offset by sublease income of $(1.2) million and $(2.4) million, respectively. Closed restaurant rent expense, net of sublease income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily consists of closed restaurant lease costs of $2.2 million and $4.4 million, respectively, partially offset by sublease income of $(0.9) million and $(1.6) million, respectively. |
(f) | Other expense (income), net for the three and six months ended June 28, 2020, primarily consists of the write-off of site development costs of $0.6 million and costs for the removal, transfer, and storage of equipment from closed restaurants and other closure related costs of $0.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Other expense (income), net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily consists of costs for the removal, transfer, and storage of equipment from closed restaurants of $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively. |
(g) | Restructuring costs and retention bonuses for the three and six months ended June 28, 2020, include severance costs related to terminations in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Restructuring costs and retention bonuses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, include severance costs related to eliminated positions. |
(h) | Digital and brand repositioning costs for the three and six months ended June 28, 2020, include consulting costs related to repositioning the digital experience for our customers. |
