Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
The Company announced today that its revenues for the combined months of July and August 2008 were approximately $215.0 million versus $213.0 million in revenues in 2007. Unit level cash flows for the two month period in 2008 was $48.0 million in comparison with $45.0 million in 2007.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
The Company further announced today that 14 Houston area restaurants remain closed as a result of Hurricane Ike and will re-open as soon as power is restored to each of the units. Moreover, all of the Company’s Kemah and Galveston restaurants are closed. Only one restaurant in Galveston sustained significant damage, as did two restaurants at the Kemah Boardwalk. In addition, the amusement rides, the boardwalk itself and some infrastructure at the Kemah Boardwalk incurred significant damage. Once power and water are restored in Galveston, the Company anticipates that the majority of its Galveston restaurants will re-open, and that some of the restaurants at the Kemah Boardwalk may reopen within the next 45 to 60 days, with additional restaurants and some amusement rides opening monthly thereafter.
