CALIFORNIA BEACH RESTAURANTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESTAURANT REVENUES
Restaurant operations include the results of Gladstone's 4 Fish ("Gladstone's")
in Pacific Palisades, California and RJ's - Beverly Hills in Beverly Hills,
California.
Total sales for the three months ended July 31, 1999 were $3,140,000 compared
with $3,554,000 for the same period last year, a decrease of $414,000 or 11.7%.
During the three months ended July 31, 1999, a substantial portion of
Gladstone's restaurant seating was unavailable due to the construction of
improvements required by Sea View's concession agreement ("Concession
Agreement") with the County of Los Angeles ("County"). The decrease in sales for
the three months ended July 31, 1999 as compared with the comparable period in
the prior year is attributable to the reduced Gladstone's seating capacity
existing during that period. The improvements were completed during August,
1999.
As a result of typically more favorable weather and higher tourism during the
summer months from May through September, the Registrant's sales and operating
profits have historically been higher in the first and second quarters of its
fiscal year.
COST OF GOODS SOLD
Cost of goods sold includes all food, beverages, liquor, direct labor and other
operating expenses, including rent, of the Registrant's restaurant operations.
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended July 31, 1999 was $2,783,000, or,
as a percentage of sales, 88.6% compared with $2,937,000, or, as a percentage of
sales, 82.6% during the same period last year. The increase in cost of goods
sold as a percentage of sales for the three months ended July 31, 1999 as
compared to the comparable period in the prior year is the result of temporary
increases in labor and supplies expenses resulting from the Registrant's
continuation of operations during the construction of substantial improvements
to its Gladstone's restaurant. Additionally, the County increased its assessment
of value for the Gladstone's property, resulting in a property tax increase,
which the Registrant intends to contest.
Cost of goods sold will typically be slightly lower during the first and second
quarters due to additional economies of scale that can be achieved with labor
and certain other costs when sales levels are higher. For the fiscal year ended
April 30, 1999, cost of goods sold, as a percentage of sales, was 87.1%.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $9,000 or 4.3% during
the three months ended July 31, 1999, as compared to the comparable period in
the prior fiscal year. The decrease is attributable to the Registrant's
continuing efforts to reduce general and administrative costs.
AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS
For the three months ended July 31, 1999 and 1998, amortization expense was
$166,000 and $164,000, respectively. Amortization expense relates to the
Registrant's Goodwill and will approximate $714,000 during Fiscal 2000.
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Registrant's
computer programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system
failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among
other things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or
engage in similar normal business activities.
The Registrant has replaced portions of its hardware and software so that its
computer systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000
and thereafter. The Registrant also has initiated formal communications with its
significant suppliers and large customers to determine the extent to which the
Registrant's interface systems are vulnerable to those third parties' failure to
remediate their own year 2000 Issues. The Registrant presently believes that the
Year 2000 Issue will not pose significant operational problems for its computer
systems. The Registrant has completed its Year 2000 preparations for its own
operating systems, and, accordingly, the Registrant has not developed a Year
2000 contingency plan. However, there can be no assurance that the systems of
other companies on which the Registrant's systems rely will be timely converted
and would not have a material adverse effect on the Registrant.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On March 30, 1999, the Registrant completed a private offering of $1,800,000 of
subordinated, convertible notes ("Subordinated Notes") to a limited number of
existing shareholders of the Registrant who are "accredited investors" within
the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. The proceeds of the offering were used to retire existing indebtedness
to Outside LLC, an entity affiliated with Overhead (as defined herein), and to
finance the renovations at Gladstone's. The Subordinated Notes are immediately
convertible into common stock of the Registrant at a rate of $1 per share, and
pay interest at 5% per annum. The Registrant may pay interest on the
Subordinated Notes in cash or in kind. The Subordinated Notes mature on March
30, 2003; provided, however, that the holders of the Subordinated Notes may
elect to receive payment for fifty percent of the outstanding Subordinated Notes
on March 30, 2002.
The Registrant has entered into an agreement for tenant improvement and
equipment financing with Lyon Credit Corporation ("TI Facility"). The terms of
the agreement provide for the extension of up
9
10
to $1,200,000 of credit, to be repaid over a 5 year period with interest at the
rate of the yield to maturity of the five year Treasury Note plus 4 percent.
This financing is secured by certain tenant improvements and equipment. At July
31, 1999, the balance due under the TI Facility was $822,000.
The terms of the Concession Agreement required Sea View to post a $2,000,000
letter of credit as a security deposit for rental payments due to the County. In
the event that rents are not paid when due, the County may draw upon the letter
of credit. The letter of credit was reduced to $437,500 on July 31, 1999 upon
Sea View's satisfaction of certain conditions, including completion of the
required capital improvements and maintenance of certain net worth levels. The
Concession Agreement requires Sea View to reinstate the $2,000,000 letter of
credit in the event it fails to maintain the required net worth levels.
The Registrant posted the $2,000,000 letter of credit required by the Concession
Agreement by utilizing cash collateral provided by Overhead Partners, L.P.
("Overhead"), an entity affiliated with one of the Registrant's principal
shareholders and with a member of its board of directors. In consideration of
providing the cash collateral, the Registrant paid Overhead $50,000 for the
three months ended July 31, 1999. The $2,000,000 letter of credit expired on
July 31, 1999, and was replaced by a $437,500 letter of credit, in accordance
with the terms of the Concession Agreement.
On July 7, 1999, the Registrant entered into a one year, $500,000 revolving line
of credit agreement with Santa Monica Bank. The agreement provides for interest
at prime plus 1% on all amounts borrowed, requires a commitment fee of 1/2%, and
is secured by certain assets of the Registrant, including its license agreement
with MCA for use of the name Gladstone's. It is also guaranteed by Sea View. The
agreement requires the Registrant to comply with certain cash flow and liquidity
covenants, and includes a 60 consecutive days out of debt requirement. The
Registrant utilized $437,500 of the capacity of the revolving line of credit as
collateral support for a letter of credit issued by Santa Monica Bank pursuant
to the Concession Agreement. The letter of credit expires in one year and
requires a commitment fee of 1%. At July 31, 1999, the Registrant had no
borrowings outstanding under the line of credit.
The Registrant is exploring various opportunities to expand its operations. The
Registrant's ability to expand is subject to the availability of debt or equity
financing on terms that are acceptable to the Registrant. There can be no
assurance that such financing will be available.
Capital expenditures for the three months ended July 31, 1999 totaled
$1,117,000. The terms of the Concession Agreement required Sea View to expend
approximately $2,700,000 on renovations to Gladstone's. The Registrant believes
Sea View has satisfied this requirement.
