Item 4.02      Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

On October 22, 2010, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc. (“DRH” or the “Company”), following discussions with management, concluded that the Company’s previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 28, 2010 and June 27, 2010 (the “Quarterly Financial Statements”) and its pro forma financial statements attached as Exhibit 99.2 to its Form 8-K/A Amendment No. 1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 19, 2010 (the “Pro Forma Financial Statements”) should no longer be relied upon as previously filed and need to be restated.

On February 1, 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of nine affiliated restaurants that were under common control with the Company (the “Affiliates Acquisition”). The Quarterly Financial Statements included the activity from the Affiliates Acquisition commencing as of February 1, 2010. However, upon re-evaluation of the Quarterly Financial Statements in light of FASB ASC 805-50, Business Combinations: Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control, Paragraphs 45-1 through 45-5, the Company has determined that the Affiliates Acquisition, as a transaction between entities under common control, should have been accounted for as if the transaction had occurred at the beginning of the period. Further, financial statements and financial information presented in the Quarterly Financial Statements for prior years should also have been retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative information while the entities were under common control. The Company’s restatement of the Quarterly Financial Statements will include the activity of the acquired affiliates for the full 2009 and 2010 years.

In addition, the Company incorrectly incorporated the acquired entities’ landlord allowance balance (recorded as deferred revenue per accounting standards) as a temporary difference for book versus tax rent in the Quarterly Financial Statements. In accordance with FASB 805-740, Business Combinations: Transactions Between Entities Under Common Control, only the amortization of the landlord allowance is a temporary difference. The Company’s restated Quarterly Financial Statements will include only the amortization of the landlord allowance as a temporary difference.

The Company’s need to restate the Pro Forma Financial Statements attached to its Form 8-K/A Amendment No. 1 filed on April 19, 2010 is attributable to the inadvertent omission of promissory notes totaling $3.2 million issued by the Company to fund the Affiliates Acquisition. The Company’s amendment to its Pro Forma Financial Statements will include these promissory notes.

The Company anticipates filing restated unaudited consolidated financial statements on Form 10-Q/A as of and for the three months ended March 28, 2010 and as of and for the six months ended June 27, 2010, as well as an amendment to Form 8-K/A including the restated pro forma financial information as soon as practicable.
