Management Commentary

Carl Bachmann, Chief Executive Officer of BurgerFi, stated, “2023 was a challenging year at both Anthony’s and BurgerFi but, in no way indicative of the work this new management team is doing or where we intend to take the business over time. In fact, I am more convinced than ever that Anthony’s and BurgerFi are high quality brands with great opportunities ahead and strong growth potential. Leveraging my prior experience in turnaround situations at burger and pizza concepts, I implemented five key strategic priorities when I began eight months ago which should ultimately drive long-term, profitable growth.”

Bachmann continued, “Notably, we have already begun to see early leading indicators that our efforts are taking hold. While Anthony’s had a 3% decrease in same-store sales growth during the fourth quarter, it did experience a sequential improvement in same-store sales and traffic compared to the third quarter and an encouraging performance during the Christmas holidays. Like most of our peers, January was a challenging month, however, trends have improved sequentially, with March flat to slightly positive, adjusting for the Easter shift.”

Christopher Jones, Chief Financial Officer of BurgerFi, added, “This new management team is working hard every day executing a sound strategy that will increase sales and improve margins over time. During the fourth quarter, top line softness pressured margins, but that did not stop us from continuing to drive labor and cost efficiency, as evidenced by the ongoing declines in payroll and corporate expense dollars. With modest investments into inventory control systems at both brands and a new POS platform at Anthony’s, we are convinced that the more work we do, driving efficiencies today, the greater margin expansion opportunity we have, as we come out of the recovery.”

Exhibit 99.1









Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Results

Total revenue decreased 8.3% to $41.5 million compared to $45.2 million in the year-ago quarter, primarily driven by a decrease in same-store sales at BurgerFi and Anthony’s partially offset by the additional revenue from new restaurants opened during the period. For the Anthony’s brand, same-store sales for the fourth quarter decreased 3% over the prior year period. For the BurgerFi brand, same-store sales decreased 14% and 8% in corporate-owned and franchised locations, respectively, over the prior year period.

Restaurant-level operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2023 were $34.5 million compared to $36.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. For the Anthony's brand, restaurant-level operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased 20 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to the fourth quarter of 2022, due to lower leverage on sales partially offset by lower food, beverage and paper costs. For the BurgerFi brand, restaurant-level operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased 660 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily due to lower leverage on sales.

Net loss in the fourth quarter of 2023 was $10.6 million compared to a net loss of $26.2 million in the year-ago quarter, primarily due to lower goodwill and fixed asset impairments, lower depreciation and amortization expenses, lower general and administrative expenses primarily due to lower litigation expenses partially offset by lost leverage on sales partially offset by lower food costs and other operating expenses.
Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2023 decreased $2.0 million to $0.7 million compared to $2.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, driven by lost leverage on sales partially offset by lower food costs and other operating expenses. See the definition of Adjusted EBITDA, a financial measure that is a non-generally accepted accounting principle in the United States (“GAAP”), and the reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure below.

Fiscal Year 2023 Financial Results

Total revenue in the fiscal year 2023 decreased 4.8% to $170.1 million compared to $178.7 million in fiscal year 2022, primarily driven by a decrease in same-store sales at BurgerFi and Anthony’s partially offset by the additional revenue from new corporate restaurants transferred from franchisees during the period. For the Anthony’s brand, same-store sales decreased 1% over the prior year period. For the BurgerFi brand, same-store sales decreased 12% and 6% in corporate-owned and franchised locations, respectively.

Restaurant-level operating expenses for the fiscal year of 2023 were $138.7 million compared to $144.2 million in the fiscal year 2022. For the Anthony's brand, restaurant-level operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased 90 basis points for fiscal year 2023, compared to the fiscal year 2022, due to lower leverage on sales partially offset by lower food, beverage and paper costs. For the BurgerFi brand, restaurant-level operating expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased 350 basis points for the fiscal year 2023, compared to the fiscal year 2022, primarily due to lower leverage on sales.

Net loss in the fiscal year 2023 was $30.7 million compared to a net loss of $103.4 million in the fiscal year 2022, primarily due to lower food beverage and paper costs, lower asset impairments, lower share-based compensation expenses, lower depreciation and amortization expense, lower general and administrative expenses due to decreased litigation expense, partially offset by lower same-store sales, the absence of gains on employee retention credits, higher costs due to restructuring and lower gain on change in value of warrant liability compared to the prior year.

Adjusted EBITDA in the fiscal year 2023 decreased $3.1 million to $6.1 million compared to $9.2 million in the fiscal year 2022, primarily due to lost leverage on sales and lower systemwide restaurant sales partially offset by lower food costs and other operating expenses. Please see below for reconciliation of non-U.S. GAAP financial measure Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, net (loss) income on a consolidated basis and by segment. See the definition of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, that is a non-GAAP, and the reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measure below.

Restaurant Development

As of January 1, 2024, there were 168 total BurgerFi and Anthony’s restaurants, of which 108 were BurgerFi (28 corporate-owned and 80 franchised) and 60 were Anthony’s (59 corporate-owned and one franchised). During the year, there were eight BurgerFi franchised locations opened; no corporate stores were opened During the year, 13 franchised and one corporate-owned BurgerFi location(s) closed; and one corporate-owned Anthony’s location closed. During the fourth quarter 2023, there were three franchised BurgerFi openings, five franchised BurgerFi closures and no corporate-owned Anthony's closures.

For the first quarter of 2024, the Company opened one franchised BurgerFi location and one corporate-owned flagship location in New York City with the unveiling of the Better Burger Lab experience.

2024 Outlook

Management is updating its outlook for the fiscal year 2024:

Annual revenues of $170-$180 million
Low-single digit same-store sales growth for corporate-owned locations
10 - 15 new restaurants, (9-14 franchised), including one new franchised Anthony's and our corporate-owned New York City BurgerFi flagship opened in March;
Continued improvement in cost of goods driven by increased adoption of inventory management at both brands
Adjusted EBITDA of $7 to $9 million; and
Capital expenditures of approximately $2-3 million

Credit Agreement

The Company’s credit agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks has approximately $51.3 million in financing outstanding as of January 1, 2024, and expires on September 30, 2025. The Credit Agreement contains various covenants, including requirements for the Company to meet certain trailing twelve-month quarterly financial ratios and a minimum liquidity threshold. As of January 1, 2024, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum liquidity requirement of the Credit Agreement, which constitutes a breach of the Credit Agreement and an event of default. This outstanding financing is included in short-term borrowings, including finance leases on our consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has been actively engaged in discussions with its lenders to explore potential solutions regarding the default event and its resolution. We cannot, however, predict the results of any such negotiations.

Key Metrics Definitions

The following definitions apply to the terms listed below:

“Systemwide Restaurant Sales” is presented as informational data in order to understand the aggregation of franchised stores sales, ghost kitchen and corporate-owned store sales performance. Systemwide Restaurant Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all franchised restaurants, ghost kitchens and corporate-owned restaurants in one period from the same period in the prior year. Systemwide Restaurant Same-Store Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all franchised restaurants, ghost kitchens, and corporate-owned restaurants after 14 months of operations. See definition below for “Same-Store Sales”.

“Corporate-Owned Restaurant Sales” represent the sales generated only by corporate-owned restaurants. Corporate-Owned Restaurant Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all corporate-owned restaurants in one period from the same period in the prior year. Corporate-Owned Restaurant Same-Store Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all corporate-owned restaurants after 14 months of operations. These measures highlight the performance of existing corporate-owned restaurants.

“Franchise Restaurant Sales” represent the sales generated only by franchisee-owned restaurants and are not recorded as revenue, however, the royalties based on a percentage of these franchise restaurant sales are recorded as revenue. Franchise Restaurant Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all franchised restaurants in one period from the same period in the prior year. Franchise Restaurant Same-Store Sales growth refers to the percentage change in sales at all franchised restaurants after 14 months of operations. These measures highlight the performance of existing franchised restaurants.

“Same-Store Sales” is used to evaluate the performance of our store base, which excludes the impact of new stores and closed stores, in both periods under comparison. We include a restaurant in the calculation of Same-Store Sales after 14 months of operations. A restaurant that is temporarily closed, is included in the Same-Store Sales computation. A restaurant that is closed permanently, such as upon termination of the lease, or other permanent closure, is immediately removed from the Same-Store Sales computation. Our calculation of Same-Store Sales may not be comparable to others in the industry.

“Digital Channel” % of Systemwide Sales is used to measure performance of our investments made in our digital platform and partnerships with third party delivery partners. We believe our digital platform capabilities are a vital element to continuing to serve our customers and will continue to be a differentiator for the Company as compared to some of our competitors. Digital Channel as % of Systemwide Sales are indicative of the sales placed through our digital platforms and the percentage of those digital sales when compared to total sales at all our franchised and corporate-owned restaurants.

“Adjusted EBITDA,” a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net loss before goodwill impairment, asset impairment charges, employee retention credits, share-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense (which includes accretion on the value of preferred stock and interest accretion on the related party note), restructuring costs, merger, acquisition and integration costs, legal settlements, store closure costs, loss (gain) on change in value of warrant liability, pre-opening costs, (gain) loss on sale of assets and income tax expense (benefit).

Unless otherwise stated, Systemwide Restaurant Sales, Systemwide Sales growth, and Same-Store Sales are presented on a systemwide basis, which means they include franchise restaurants and corporate-owned restaurants. Franchise restaurant sales represent sales at all franchise restaurants and are revenues to our franchisees. We do not record franchise sales as revenues; however, our royalty revenues and brand royalty revenues are calculated based on a percentage of franchise sales.

About Non-GAAP Projected Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use the non-GAAP measure Adjusted EBITDA. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We use this non-GAAP financial measure for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our recurring core business operating results. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to this non-GAAP financial measure in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. This non-GAAP financial measure also facilitates management’s internal comparisons to our historical performance and liquidity as well as comparisons to our competitors’ operating results. We believe this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors both because (1) it allows for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) it is used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the health of our business.

There are a number of limitations related to the use of this non-GAAP financial measure. We compensate for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from this non-GAAP financial measure and evaluating this non-GAAP financial measure together with its relevant financial measures in accordance with GAAP.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA guidance is not being provided due to the nature of this forward-looking non-GAAP measure containing certain elements that are impractical to predict given their market-based nature, such as share-based compensation expense and gain and losses on change in value of warrant liabilities, without unreasonable efforts. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, nor can we accurately predict all of the components of the applicable non-GAAP financial measure and reconciling adjustments thereto; accordingly, guidance for the corresponding GAAP measure may be materially different than guidance for the non-GAAP measure. Such forward looking information is also subject to uncertainty and various risks, and there can be no assurance that any forecasted results or conditions will actually be achieved.
