NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.
In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary to present fairly the consolidated
financial position as of December 23, 1998, the consolidated statements of
earnings for the twelve weeks ended December 23, 1998 and December 17, 1997 and
the consolidated statements of cash flows for the twelve weeks ended December
23, 1998 and December 17, 1997 have been included. Certain amounts in the prior
year unaudited consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the current year presentation.
The consolidated statements of earnings for the twelve weeks ended December
23, 1998 and December 17, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the
consolidated statements of earnings for the entire year. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
September 30, 1998.
SEASONAL ASPECTS
The Company has substantial fixed costs which do not decline as a result of a
decline in sales. The Company's second fiscal quarter, which falls during the
winter months, usually reflects lower average weekly unit volumes, and sales can
be adversely affected by severe winter weather.
INTEREST AND INCOME TAXES PAID
Cash payments for interest during the twelve weeks ended December 23, 1998
and December 17, 1997 amounted to $288,000 and $777,000, respectively. Cash
payments for income taxes during the twelve weeks ended December 23, 1998 and
December 17, 1997 amounted to $310,000 and $1,046,000, respectively.
STOCK SPLIT
The number of shares issued as of December 23, 1998 on the
consolidated statement of financial position includes 5,270,606 shares which
were distributed on December 28, 1998 pursuant to a five for four stock split
declared on December 1, 1998 to shareholders of record on December 14, 1998. Net
earnings per common and common equivalent share and weighted average shares and
equivalents for the twelve weeks ended December 17, 1997 have been restated to
give effect to the five for four stock split.
6
NET EARNINGS PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE
Diluted earnings per common and common equivalent share is computed by
dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of outstanding and common
equivalent shares. Common equivalent shares include shares subject to purchase
under stock options.
The following table presents information necessary to calculate basic
and diluted earnings per common and common equivalent share:

COMPARISON OF TWELVE WEEKS ENDED DECEMBER 23, 1998 TO TWELVE WEEKS ENDED
DECEMBER 17, 1997
REVENUES
Net sales increased $14,452,000 to $77,867,000, or 22.8%, due to an increase
in Steak n Shake's net sales. The increase of $14,583,000, or 24.6%, in net
sales of Steak n Shake was due to the opening of new units within the last year
pursuant to the Company's expansion plan (non-same stores) and a 4.6% increase
in same store sales. The number of Company-operated Steak n Shake restaurants
increased 19% to 239 at December 23, 1998 as compared to 201 at December 17,
1997. The same store sales increase continues the trend of steady improvement
over the past year. The increase in same store sales consisted of an increase of
1.9% in customer counts and a 2.7% increase in check average. The increase in
check average is the result of favorable sales mix changes and, to a lesser
extent, menu price increases. As planned, a one percent menu price increase was
implemented after the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
Franchise fees decreased $105,000 to $704,000, as a result of a decrease in
franchise royalties of $60,000 due to the 11 former franchised units purchased
by the Company and a decrease in initial and renewal franchise fees of $45,000
due to timing of franchise openings.
Other revenues decreased $214,000 to $440,000, primarily as a result of the
inclusion of a $228,000 gain on the disposal of property in the first quarter of
1998.
8
COSTS AND EXPENSES
Cost of sales increased $3,436,000, or 20.9%, as a result of sales increases.
As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales decreased to 25.5% from 25.9%,
primarily as a result of the higher mix of Company-operated restaurant cost of
sales as compared to cost of sales for products sold to franchisees. The
favorable effects of the shift in mix were somewhat offset by increases in
dairy, poultry and pork prices, partially offset by lower beef costs.
Restaurant operating costs increased $7,209,000, or 24.7%, principally due to
higher labor costs and other operating costs resulting from the increased sales
volume. Restaurant operating costs, as a percentage of net sales, increased to
46.8% from 46.1%. Restaurant operating costs increased due to higher wage rates
arising from labor shortages in most markets and new unit opening labor
inefficiencies associated with the twelve Steak N Shake restaurants opened late
in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998.
General and administrative expenses increased $784,000 or 16.2%. The increase
in expenses was attributable to personnel related costs, which included costs
for additional management support personnel in connection with the development
of new restaurants, and other costs resulting from the increased number of
restaurants. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses
decreased to 7.1% from 7.5%.
The $331,000 increase in depreciation and amortization expense was
attributable to the net depreciable capital additions since the beginning of
fiscal 1998.
Rent expense increased $978,000, or 49.8%, as a result of the completion of
the sale and leaseback of thirty-three Company-owned properties since the
beginning of fiscal 1998 and a net increase in the number of other leased
properties, including the eight franchised Steak n Shake units purchased in
fiscal 1998.
Marketing expense increased $227,000, or 11.4%, with the commencement of
television advertising in the Tampa, Florida market. As a percentage of
revenues, marketing expense decreased to 2.8% from 3.1%.
Interest expense decreased $106,000 due to decreased average net borrowings
under the Company's senior note agreement and the reduction in capital lease
obligations.
INCOME TAXES
The Company's effective income tax rate was to 36.5% for the quarters ended
December 23, 1998 and December 17, 1997 and 36.3% for the year ended September
30, 1998. A valuation allowance against gross deferred tax assets has not been
provided based upon the expectation of future taxable income.
NET EARNINGS
Net earnings increased $797,000 to $4,721,000, or 20.3%, primarily as a result
of the increase in Steak n Shake's operating earnings. Diluted earnings per
share increased from $.15 to $.18.
9
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Three Company-operated Steak n Shake restaurants and one franchised Steak n
Shake restaurant were opened during the quarter ended December 23, 1998. In
addition, the Company completed the purchase of three franchised Steak n Shake
restaurants in October of 1998. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, two
Company-operated Steak n Shake restaurants and one franchised unit were opened.
Nine additional units, including one franchised unit, are currently under
construction. For the quarter ended December 23, 1998, capital expenditures
totaled $12,347,000 as compared to $7,608,000 for the comparable prior year
period.
The Company's five-year growth program for fiscal 1999 through 2003 calls for
the opening of 290 Company-operated Steak n Shake units. In addition to the 290
Company-operated units, the Company will also very selectively expand its
franchise system. Under this controlled growth plan, over 600 Steak n Shake
restaurants, including over 500 Company-operated, would be in operation at the
end of fiscal 2003. The average cost of a new Company-operated Steak n Shake
restaurant, including land, site improvements, building and equipment, was
$1,430,000 during fiscal 1998. The Company intends to fund capital expenditures
and meet working capital needs using existing resources and anticipated cash
flows from operations, together with additional capital generated by sale and
leaseback transactions involving newly acquired properties and bank borrowings.
During the twelve weeks ended December 23, 1998, cash provided by operations
totaled $3,274,000, while cash generated by sale and leaseback transactions and
other disposals of property totaled $6,126,000. During the twelve weeks ended
December 17, 1997, cash provided by operations totaled $4,973,000, while cash
generated by sale and leaseback transactions and other disposals of property
totaled $1,367,000. The increased proceeds from sales and leaseback transactions
and other property disposals reflect the Company's increased use of sale and
leaseback financing. At December 23, 1998 the Company had additional sale and
leaseback properties under contract which, when closed, will generate
approximately $3,422,000 in proceeds.
Net cash used in financing activities for the twelve weeks ended December 23,
1998, totaled $140,000. There were no net borrowings under the Company's
$30,000,000 Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Revolving Credit Agreement") at
December 23, 1998. During the twelve weeks ended December 17, 1997 net
borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement totaled $2,000,000 and the
Company borrowed $5,000,000 under its $50,000,000 ten-year Senior Note Agreement
and Private Shelf Facility (the "Senior Note Agreement"), to refinance a like
amount which was payable under the prior senior note agreement.
As of December 23, 1998, the Company borrowed $30,000,000 under its Senior
Note Agreement. Borrowings under this facility bear interest at an average fixed
rate of 7.6%. Consequently, the Company has borrowings of $20,000,000 available
under the Senior Note Agreement over the period ending April 28, 2000, at
interest rates based upon market rates at the time of borrowing. As of December
23, 1998 the Company had outstanding $28,522,000 under the Senior Note
Agreement. The Company's Revolving Credit Agreement bears interest based on
LIBOR plus 75 basis points, or the prime rate, at the election of the Company.
During the second quarter of 1999, the Company amended the Revolving Credit
Agreement to extend the maturity date to December 1999. The Company expects to
be able to secure a new revolving credit facility upon expiration of the current
agreement. The Company's debt agreements contain restrictions, which among other
things require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios.
YEAR 2000
The Company has established a Company-wide program to prepare its information
technology and non-information technology systems for Year 2000, including
modification of the Company's computer systems and applications where necessary.
The Company is utilizing both internal and external resources to identify,
modify and test the systems for Year 2000 compliance. The Company currently
anticipates that business-critical information technology systems will be
replaced by new systems or reprogrammed and tested by mid 1999. Formal
communications are being made with all significant suppliers and service
providers to determine the extent to which the Company is vulnerable to those
third parties' failure to remedy the Year 2000 problem. Unless public suppliers
of water, electricity and natural gas are disrupted for a substantial period of
time (in which the Company's business may be materially adversely affected), the
Company currently believes that its operations will not be significantly
disrupted even if third parties with whom the Company has relationships
10
are not Year 2000 compliant. Information will also be provided to franchisees
regarding the potential risks associated with the Year 2000 problem.
The Company currently believes that, with the purchase of new software and
modifications to existing software, any internal Year 2000 compliance issues
will be remedied in a timely manner and will not pose significant operational
problems for the Company's computer systems as so modified and converted.
Further, the Company believes that the costs solely related to addressing Year
2000 compliance issues will not have a material effect on the Company's earnings
or financial condition. However, uncertainty exists concerning the potential
costs and effects associated with any Year 2000 compliance. The Company intends
to continue to make efforts to ensure that third parties with whom it has
relationships are Year 2000 compliant, as well as, develop contingency plans,
including alternative suppliers or service providers. Any Year 2000 compliance
problem of either the Company or its suppliers (to the extent alternative
suppliers are not available on a timely basis) could possibly result in
disruptions and unexpected business problems and could have a material adverse
effect on earnings or financial condition.
IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement of Position 98-5, "Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities." SOP
98-5 broadly defines start-up activities as those one-time activities that
relate to, among other activities, the opening of a new facility. The Company's
current policy is to capitalize pre-opening costs, which represent costs
incurred before a new restaurant opens, and then amortize those costs from the
opening date over a one-year period. Under the new requirements for reporting
costs of start-up activities, companies will be required to expense start-up
costs as incurred. At December 23, 1998 and September 30, 1998, unamortized
pre-opening costs were $2,825,000 and $2,818,000, respectively. The provisions
of SOP 98-5 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1998.
Upon adoption at the end of fiscal 1999, the Company will be required to
write-off the unamortized pre-opening cost balance of $2,818,000 at September
30, 1998 as a cumulative-effect change in accounting principle, net of
applicable income taxes. The Company will be required to restate all prior
quarters of fiscal 1999 upon adoption.
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains certain statements that are "forward-looking statements"
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Those statements
include, but may not be limited to, the discussions of the Company's expansion
strategy, expectations concerning its future profitability, capital sources and
needs, Year 2000 remedial efforts, marketing plans and franchising program.
Investors in the common stock are cautioned that reliance on any forward-looking
statement involves risks and uncertainties, and that although the Company

herein are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate,
and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also
could be incorrect. The uncertainties in this regard include, but are not
limited to, those identified above. In light of these and other uncertainties,
the inclusion of a forward-looking statement herein should not be regarded as a
representation by the Company that the Company's plans and objectives will be

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's primary market risk exposure with regard to financial
instruments is to changes in interest rates. Pursuant to the terms of the Senior
Note Agreement, the Company may from time to time issue notes in increments of
at least $5,000,000. The interest rate on the notes is based upon market rates
at the time of the borrowing. Once the interest rate is established at the time
of the initial borrowing, the interest rate remains fixed over the term of the
underlying note. The Revolving Credit Agreement bears interest at a rate based
upon LIBOR plus 75 basis points or the prime rate, at the election of the
Company. Historically, the Company has not used derivative financial instruments
to manage exposure to interest rate changes. At September 30, 1998, a
hypothetical 100 basis point increase in short-term interest rates would have an
immaterial impact on the Company's earnings.
