FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Luby’s Reports Third Quarter Results and Announces Expansion Plans for 2008

HOUSTON, TX - June 11, 2007- Luby's, Inc. (NYSE: LUB) today announced unaudited financial results for the third quarter fiscal 2007, which ended on May 9, 2007. Sales in the third quarter fiscal 2007 were $75.9 million, down 2.7 percent compared to $78.0 million in the third quarter fiscal 2006. On a same-store basis, sales decreased 1.9 percent for the 127 operating units in the third quarter compared to the same period last year. Same-store sales in the third quarter 2006 represented a 4.1 percent increase compared to the third quarter 2005.

Net income was $3.9 million, or $0.14 per share diluted, in the third quarter compared to $6.9 million, or $0.25 per share diluted, in the third quarter 2006.The Company’s third quarter 2007 income tax provision represented $0.06 per share diluted. This compares with an income tax benefit of $0.09 per share diluted in the third quarter of 2006 resulting from the recognition of previously deferred tax benefits.

“While the macro environment remains challenging, we maintained store level profit margins during the quarter despite lower sales, which reflects the hard work of our store employees and the strength of our entire team,” said Chris Pappas, President and CEO. “Our team is focused on executing customer service and operations initiatives in our restaurants to provide an exceptional customer experience with the goal of driving guest traffic and higher average unit volumes. These efforts generate cash flow that will fund further expansion as well as capital improvements in existing stores. We are committed to a long-term growth strategy through the development of new stores, beginning with the new store prototype that will open later this summer in Houston and Port Arthur. In 2008 we plan to build four to six stores using the new prototype. We believe the expansion of new units will generate favorable unit sales and strong returns on investment creating an attractive long-term growth vehicle for the company and will enhance shareholder value.”

Cash flow from operations was $24.9 million for the first three quarters of fiscal 2007, compared to $17.5 million for the first three quarters of fiscal 2006.

Food costs decreased approximately $0.4 million, or 2.1 percent, in the third quarter 2007 compared to the same quarter last year and increased 0.1 percent as a percentage of sales, to 26.6 percent. The company continues to manage food costs by offering menu items and combination meals with favorable cost structures.

Payroll and related costs decreased approximately $1.1 million, or 4.3 percent, in the third quarter 2007 compared to the same quarter last year and decreased 0.6 percent as a percentage of sales to 33.5 percent. The year over year improvement was due primarily to continued focus on labor productivity.

Other operating costs decreased by approximately $0.5 million, or 3.0 percent, in the third quarter 2007 compared to the same quarter last year and decreased 0.1 percent as a percentage of sales to 21.0 percent. The year-over-year improvement was due to lower utility costs, offset by higher marketing and advertising expenses.

General and administrative costs in the third quarter were $5.3 million, compared to $5.4 million in the same quarter last year.

Company Outlook

Pappas said, “We have seen industry-wide pressure on customer traffic in the casual and family dining segments for several quarters and we expect those sales trends to continue. We expect our fourth quarter sales trends to be similar to our second and third quarters of fiscal 2007, which were down approximately 2.0 percent. Additionally, there are a few factors to keep in mind with respect to the comparison of fourth quarter 2006 results:

-   Net income for the fourth quarter 2006 included a non-cash income tax benefit of $2.1 million, or $0.09 per share diluted, associated with a favorable tax settlement and a tax benefit generated in previous years that were not recognized in those years because of uncertainty of future realization;

-   Other operating expenses in the fourth quarter 2006 were partially offset by a $1.1 million, or approximately $0.02 per share diluted, from an insurance recovery associated with a business interruption claim due to Hurricane Rita;

-   Sales in the fourth quarter 2006 included an approximately $0.5 million sales contribution from one store that was closed earlier this year and will not contribute to fourth quarter 2007 sales.”
