Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of presentation:
As a result of the Merger, which we discuss below, we are required to present our results for the first half of 2007 as two separate periods. Our Predecessor financial period refers to the period from January 1 through January 30, 2007 which was prior to consummation of the Merger. Our Successor financial period refers to the period from January 31 through July 1, 2007 following consummation of the Merger.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X related to interim period financial statements and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of our management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of Sbarro and our subsidiaries at July 1, 2007 (Successor) and our consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the period January 1, 2007 through January 30, 2007 (Predecessor) and the period January 31, 2007 through July 1, 2007 (Successor) and the twenty eight weeks ended July 16, 2006 (Predecessor) have been included. The Predecessor and Successor results for the first half of 2007 if combined represent twenty six weeks while the results for the first half of 2006 represent twenty eight weeks. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.
2. The Merger:
On January 31, 2007, entities controlled by MidOcean Partners III, LP a private equity firm, and certain of its affiliates (“MidOcean”) acquired the Company. MidOcean SBR Acquisition Corp., an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of MidOcean SBR Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”), merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger. In the Merger, our former shareholders received consideration of $450 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments, in exchange for all of their shares of Company common stock, and Sbarro Holdings LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings and the parent of MidOcean SBR Acquisition Corp., acquired all of our outstanding shares of common stock.
MidOcean owns approximately 74% of Holdings and thus acquired control of the Company in the Merger. Certain of our senior managers acquired approximately 5% of the outstanding equity of Holdings in connection with the Merger, with the balance of the equity of Holdings being owned by other investors.
Sbarro Holdings, LLC owns 100% of our outstanding common stock. Holdings owns 100% of the limited liability company interests of Sbarro Holdings, LLC. MidOcean, other investors and certain members of our senior management team own Holdings.

SBARRO INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(Continued)
In connection with the Merger, the Company transferred interests in certain non-core assets to a newly formed company owned by certain of our former shareholders. There was no gain or loss on this transfer as these assets were transferred at book value and a dividend was issued to certain of our former shareholders. The assets and related costs that we transferred (the “Withdrawn Assets”) were:
• |
the interests in 401 Broadhollow Realty Corp. and 401 Broadhollow Fitness Center Corp., which own the corporate headquarters of the Company, the fitness center and the assets of the Sbarro Café located at the corporate headquarters; |
• |
a parcel of undeveloped real property located in East Northport, New York; |
• |
the interests in Boulder Creek Ventures LLC and Boulder Creek Holdings, LLC, which own a 40% interest in a joint venture that operates 15 steakhouses under “Boulder Creek” and other names; and |
• |
the interest in Two Mex-SS, LLC, which owns a 50% interest in a joint venture that operates two tex-mex restaurants under the “Baja Grill” name. |
The former shareholders received a distribution of the cash on hand in excess of (i) $11 million, which remained in the business, plus (ii) all amounts required to be paid in connection with special event bonuses. These bonuses, which were paid to certain members of management and non-employee directors by the Company on the closing date were approximately $34 million. Additionally, $15 million of the total consideration paid to the former shareholders is held in an escrow account for a period of eighteen months pursuant to an escrow agreement between some of the former shareholders and Holdings as security for the indemnity obligations of the former shareholders under the Merger Agreement. Concurrently with the Merger, we extended our lease for the space in the office building containing our corporate headquarters. The lease expires in January 2017. In addition, we agreed to pay to the former shareholders any incremental tax benefit of deductions generated by the repurchase of our 11% Notes or payment of the special event bonuses. The payment is due within 15 days of the filing of the US tax return that claims these additional deductions and will be treated as a purchase price adjustment at that time.
We refer to this entire transaction as the “Merger.”
Holdings financed the Merger, including estimated fees and expenses, with $333 million of debt financing described below and $133 million of common equity contributed in cash to Holdings by MidOcean, members of management and the other investors in Holdings.
In connection with the Merger, we entered into a new $183.0 million senior secured term loan facility and a new $25.0 million senior secured revolving facility (the “Senior Credit Facilities”); issued $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 10.375% senior notes due 2015 (the “Senior Notes”); and repurchased all of our 11% senior notes due 2009 (the “11% Notes”).

SBARRO INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(Continued)
The Merger was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” pursuant to which the allocable purchase price of the Merger, including related fees and expenses, will be allocated to our net assets based upon our estimates of fair value. Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared based on our preliminary estimates of fair value of our net assets using information available as of the date of this report, which are subject to change. The final allocation of the allocable purchase price to our net assets is expected to be completed by the end of our fiscal year and will be based on a formal valuation of the fair value of our net assets and the resolution of any pre-closing or post-closing purchase price adjustments pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Consequently, the final calculation of the purchase price and the final allocation could vary from the purchase price and allocation presented herein, and the variations could be material.
Our consolidated financial statements as of July 1, 2007 include estimated fair value of intangible assets with indefinite lives of (a) trademarks of $234.5 million; (b) franchise relationships of $24.3 million and (c) goodwill of $218.2 million. Also included in our financial statements is a franchise agreement intangible of $8.0 million with an estimated remaining life of eight years. This intangible is amortized using a method that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefit of the assets will be consumed in the future. Other fair value adjustments include a net decrease to Property, Plant and Equipment of approximately $.7 million with an average remaining useful life of approximately four years and a liability for our lease agreements that are above market for approximately $1.4 million which will be amortized over the respective lease terms. The $15.0 million previously reported as sellers’ funds held in escrow has been reallocated to goodwill.
The following table sets forth the components of the purchase price (in millions):

The following table provides the preliminary allocation of the allocable purchase price based upon the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at January 31, 2007. The final allocation of the total purchase price to our net assets is expected to be completed by the end of our fiscal year and will be based on a formal valuation of the fair value of our net assets and the resolution of any pre-closing or post-closing purchase price adjustments pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Consequently, the final calculation of the purchase price and the final allocation could vary from the purchase price and allocation presented herein, and the variations could be material. Final allocation adjustments, if any, are more likely to occur within intangible assets than in working capital.

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
SFAS 157:
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement applies whenever other statements require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and based upon our preliminary analysis, it is expected that SFAS No. 157 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
EITF Issue No. 06-3:
In June 2006, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 06–3, “How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (that is, Gross versus Net Presentation)”, which allows companies to adopt a policy of presenting taxes in the income statement on either a gross or net basis. Taxes within the scope of this EITF would include taxes that are imposed on a revenue transaction between a seller and a customer. If such taxes are significant, the accounting policy should be disclosed as well as the amount of taxes included in the financial statements if presented on a gross basis. EITF 06–3 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2006. We have been accounting for sales tax as net and continue to present such tax as net upon the adoption of EITF Issue No. 06-03 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2007.
FASB 159:
In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). Under SFAS 159, a company may elect to measure eligible financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. If elected, SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing whether fair value accounting is appropriate for any of the Company’s eligible items and we have not yet determined the impact, if any, on our consolidated financial statements.
FIN 48:
We adopted FIN 48 in the first quarter of 2007. Under FIN 48, tax benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. Unrecognized tax benefits are tax benefits claimed in tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements and we do not expect the change to have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial position during the next twelve months.
As permitted by FIN 48, we also adopted an accounting policy to prospectively classify accrued interest and penalties related to any unrecognized tax benefits in our income tax provision. Previously, our policy was to classify interest and penalties as an operating expense in arriving at pre-tax income. At July 1, 2007, we do not have accrued interest and penalties related to any unrecognized tax benefits. We were taxed as a subchapter S corporation prior to the Merger, and we do not believe we have taken any uncertain tax positions for our successor period January 31, 2007 through July 1, 2007. The years subject to potential audit varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. The Company’s major taxing jurisdictions include New York, California, Florida, Texas and Ohio.

4. Long Term Debt:
Senior Notes:
In connection with the Merger, we issued $150.0 million of 10.375% Senior Notes due 2015 (“Senior Notes”). The interest is payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year.
The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of ours and are guaranteed by all of our current and future domestic subsidiaries and rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of ours. The Senior Notes are effectively subordinated to all secured indebtedness of ours, to the extent of the collateral securing such indebtedness, including the Senior Credit Facilities. In the event of any distribution or payment of our assets in any foreclosure, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, or other bankruptcy proceeding, holders of secured indebtedness will have prior claim to those of our assets that constitute their collateral. The Senior Notes are structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our non-guarantor subsidiaries, holders of their indebtedness and their trade creditors will generally be entitled to payment of their claims in full from the assets of those subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to us. The Senior Notes are senior in right of payment to any future subordinated obligations of ours.
The indenture governing the notes contains certain events of default and restrictive covenants which are customary with respect to non-investment grade debt securities, including limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, dividends, repurchases of capital stock, sales of assets, liens, mergers and transactions with affiliates.
Senior Credit Facility:
In connection with the Merger, we entered into a $183.0 million senior secured term loan facility which matures January 31, 2014. Interest is calculated at LIBOR plus 2.5%. Principal amortization payments of .25% of the initial principal are due quarterly beginning June 30, 2007. Covenants include a leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio.
Long-Term Debt matures as follows (In millions):

1.8 | ||
2011 |

2012 |

2013 and thereafter |
322.6 |
Line of Credit:
In connection with the Merger, we obtained a line of credit facility of $25.0 million, with a sub-limit for letters of credit of $10.0 million. This line replaced our prior Commerce Bank line of credit. There were $3.8 million of letters of credit outstanding as of July 1, 2007.
11% Senior Notes:
The 11% Senior Notes were issued at an aggregate discount of approximately $3.8 million, which was accreted to the 11% Notes on a straight-line basis over the original ten-year life of the notes. Our 11% Notes were repurchased in conjunction with the Merger.
Mortgage:
In March 2000, one of our subsidiaries obtained a $16 million, 8.4% loan due in 2010, secured by a mortgage on our corporate headquarters building. In connection with the Merger, we transferred our interests in the real estate secured by the mortgage and our obligations under the related mortgage to a company owned by certain of our former shareholders.

Guarantee Arrangements Pertaining to Other Concepts:
We were party to separate financial guarantees to a bank for two of our unconsolidated joint ventures. These guarantees were released in connection with the Merger.
Litigation:
In December 1999, fourteen current and former general managers of Sbarro restaurants in California amended a complaint against us filed in the Superior Court of California for Orange County. The complaint alleges that the plaintiffs were improperly classified as exempt employees under the California wage and hour law. The plaintiffs were seeking actual damages, punitive damages and costs of the lawsuit, including reasonable attorney’s fees, each in unspecified amounts. Plaintiffs filed a motion to certify the lawsuit as a class action, but the motion was denied by the court. The court issued a ruling in December 2003 which was unfavorable to us which we appealed as we believe errors were made by the trial judge and appealed the decision to the circuit court. On appeal, the Circuit Court affirmed the lower court’s decision in part and reversed it in part finding that their damages should only be computed from October 1996 through May 9, 1999, the date we converted the compensation of general managers to an hourly rate rather than their later employment termination dates. The Circuit Court remanded the matter to the lower court with instructions on how to compute damages and to redetermine the amount of attorney’s fees awarded. The lower court affirmed the initial determination of the legal fees.
In September 2000, eight other current and former general managers of Sbarro restaurants in California filed a companion complaint against us in the Superior Court of California for Orange County alleging that the plaintiffs were improperly classified as exempt employees under California wage and hour law. The plaintiffs are seeking actual damages, punitive damages and costs of the lawsuit, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, each in unspecified amounts. Plaintiffs are represented by the same counsel who is representing the plaintiffs in the case discussed in the preceding paragraph. We have separately settled with two of the managers for immaterial amounts. The remaining parties to this case will be paid upon the same terms and conditions that the court order in connection with its decision in the case discussed in the preceding paragraph. We settled both of these cases in the second quarter of 2007 for $1.4 million, of which $.8 million was accrued for in 2003 and $.6 million was accrued for in 2004.
In May 2004 and in February 2007 suits were filed by the landlords of two of our Quick Service Restaurants (“QSR”) locations as a result of our premature termination of the leases on those locations by one of our subsidiaries. The Company has defended these cases on the theory that the landlords have failed to maintain a proper shopping center atmosphere by allowing the mall to deteriorate and in failing to keep the mall leased by retail tenants. We believe we have a substantial defense in this action and are vigorously defending our position, a minimal amount has been accrued to date.
In January 2007, a franchisee filed a law suit against us alleging, among other things, violations of the Minnesota Franchise Act and the New York State Sales Act and intentional and negligent misrepresentation in connection with the offer and sale of their franchise. The plaintiff seeks, among other things, damages in an unspecified amount. The parties are currently negotiating an agreement to submit this matter to arbitration. We believe we have a substantial defense in this action and are vigorously defending our position, a minimal amount has been accrued to date.
In addition to the above complaints, from time to time, we are a party to claims and legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the results of such claims and legal proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
5. Income Taxes:
Effective January 31, 2007, the Company has been organized as a C corporation. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
We discuss the impact of our adoption of FIN 48 in Note 3 to the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (in millions):
The final allocation of the total purchase price to our net assets is expected to be completed by the end of our fiscal year and will be based on a formal valuation of the fair value of our net assets and the resolution of any pre-closing or post-closing purchase price adjustments pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Consequently, the final calculation of the purchase price and the final allocation could vary from the purchase price and allocation presented herein, and the variations could be material. Final allocation adjustments, if any, are more likely to occur within intangible assets then in working capital. We have identified two reporting units for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment. The 2007 allocation of the two reporting units has not yet been prepared. The goodwill attributed to the Company owned reporting unit was $8.5 million and the Franchise reporting unit was $0.7 million at December 31, 2006 based upon their relative fair value.

7. Business Segment Information:
We operate two business segments. Our company-owned restaurant segment is comprised of the operating activities of our company-owned QSR restaurants and other concept restaurants. Our franchise restaurant segment offers franchise opportunities worldwide for qualified operators to conduct business under the Sbarro name. Revenue from franchise operations is generated from initial franchise fees, ongoing royalties and other franchising revenue.
We do not allocate indirect corporate charges to the franchise operating segment. Such costs are managed on an entity-wide basis, and the information to reasonably allocate such costs is not readily available.
We do not allocate assets by segment because our chief operating decision makers do not review the assets by segment to assess the segments’ performance as the assets are managed on an entity-wide basis.
The following table sets forth the information concerning the revenue and operating income before unallocated costs of each of our company owned and franchise restaurant segments.

Pro Forma Financial Information (unaudited) |
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data of Sbarro is presented to show how Sbarro might have looked if the Merger together with the Financing Transactions that we describe below had occurred as of January 2, 2006 for the periods indicated below. We derived the following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations on an adjusted basis to give pro forma effect for the year to date ended July 1, 2007 and July 16, 2006 by applying pro forma adjustments to our historical consolidated statement of operations.
The pro forma adjustments for “Withdrawn Assets” refers to the following assets and related costs that were transferred by the Company to our former shareholders in connection with the Merger:
• |
the interests in 401 Broadhollow Realty Corp. and 401 Broadhollow Fitness Center Corp., which own the corporate headquarters of the Company, the fitness center and the assets of the Sbarro Café located at the corporate headquarters; |
• |
a parcel of undeveloped real property located in East Northport, New York; |
• |
the interests in Boulder Creek Ventures LLC and Boulder Creek Holdings, LLC, which own a 40% interest in a joint venture that operates 15 steakhouses under “Boulder Creek” and other names; |
• |
the interest in Two Mex-SS, LLC, which owns a 50% interest in a joint venture that operates two tex-mex restaurants under the “Baja Grill” name and |
• |
the elimination of certain costs and expenses related to the offices of certain previous shareholders including salaries, bonus, benefits, payroll taxes, and travel and entertainment. |
The term “Financing Transactions” means, collectively, our:
• |
entry into the Senior Credit Facilities; |
• |
issuance of $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2015; |
• |
repurchase of all of our outstanding 11% Notes; and |
• |
payment of all related fees and expenses. |
The Financing Transactions together with the Merger and payment of the special event bonuses that are described in Note 2 to the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements are referred to herein as the “Transactions.” The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data should not be considered indicative of actual results that would have been achieved had the Transactions been consummated on the date or for the periods indicated and do not purport to indicate consolidated balance sheet data or statement of operations data or other financial data as of any future date or for any future period. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data should be read in conjunction with the information contained in “Selected Financial Data,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report.

Forward Looking Statements
We make statements in the Quarterly Report that are considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “expect” and similar words often indicate that a statement is a “forward-looking statement.” Statements about non-historic results also are considered to be forward-looking statements. None of these forward-looking statements are guarantees of future performance or events, and they are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties and other factors. These risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to:
• |
general economic, inflation, national security, weather and business conditions; |
• |
the availability of suitable restaurant sites in appropriate regional shopping malls and other locations on reasonable rental terms; |
• |
changes in consumer tastes; |
• |
changes in population and traffic patterns, including the effects that military action and terrorism or other events may have on the willingness of consumers to frequent malls, airports or downtown areas which are the predominant areas in which our restaurants are located; |
• |
our ability to continue to attract franchisees; |
• |
the success of our present, and any future, joint ventures and other expansion opportunities; |
• |
the availability of food (particularly cheese and tomatoes), beverage and paper products at current prices; |
• |
our ability to pass along cost increases to our customers; |
• |
increases in the Federal minimum wage; |
• |
the continuity of services of members of our senior management team; |
• |
our ability to attract and retain competent restaurant and executive managerial personnel; |
• |
competition; |
• |
the level of, and our ability to comply with, government regulations; |
• |
our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to make interest payments and principal under our Senior Notes and line of credit; |
• |
our ability to comply with covenants contained in the indenture under which the Senior Notes are issued and the effects which the restrictions imposed by those covenants may have on our ability to operate our business; and |
• |
our ability to repurchase our Senior Notes to the extent required in the event we make certain asset sales or experience a change of control. |
You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We do not undertake any responsibility to release publicly any revisions to these forward-looking statements to take into account events or circumstances that occur after the date of this report. Additionally, we do not undertake any responsibility to update you on the occurrence of any unanticipated events which may cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this report.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto and other data and information appearing elsewhere in this report.

Executive Overview
The first half of 2007 is the combined Predecessor and Successor twenty six week period of January 1, 2007 through July 1, 2007 compared to the first half of 2006 which was the twenty eight week period of January 2, 2006 through July 16, 2006.
We believe we are the world’s leading Italian Quick Service Restaurant (“QSR”) concept and the largest shopping mall-focused restaurant concept in the world. We have a global base of 997 units in 39 countries, with 498 company-owned units and 499 franchised units. Sbarro restaurants feature a menu of popular Italian food, including pizza, a selection of pasta dishes and other hot and cold Italian entrees, salads, sandwiches, drinks and desserts.
We operate our business through two segments. Our company-owned restaurant segment is comprised of the operating activities of our company-owned QSR’s and other concepts restaurants. Our franchise restaurant segment is comprised of our franchise restaurant operations which offer opportunities worldwide for qualified operators to conduct business under the Sbarro name. Revenue from franchise operations is generated from initial franchise fees, ongoing royalties and other franchising revenue. We do not allocate indirect corporate charges to the franchise operating segment. Such costs are managed on an entity-wide basis, and the information to reasonably allocate such cost is not readily available. We do not allocate assets by segment because our chief operating decision makers do not review the assets by segment to assess performance as the assets are managed on an entity-wide basis.
Commencing in 2003, we initiated a program to reorganize management, revitalize units and operations and re-launch historic growth, addressing numerous external and internal pressures, which had resulted in deteriorating performance from 2001 to 2003. We saw increased sales in all areas of our business as we moved through 2004 to 2007. Mall traffic has increased as retailers, particularly high end mall-based retailers, are serving more customers. In addition, during 2004, we re-energized our QSR operations while continuing to provide a quality product coupled with quality service. The increase in mall traffic, combined with menu innovation and selective price increases, improvements in operational controls and upgraded store management at all levels produced increased sales and earnings. We believe that the combination of our re-energized QSR restaurants and continued growth in our franchise based business should lead to continued improvements in both revenue and profit.

Seasonality
Revenues are highest in our fourth quarter due primarily to increased traffic in shopping malls during the holiday shopping season. Our annual revenues and earnings can fluctuate due to the length of the holiday shopping period between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day and the number of weeks in our fourth quarter.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” and SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” we annually test for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year unless evidence of an impairment necessitates earlier testing.

Our 2007 second quarter presented consisted of thirteen weeks, while our 2006 second quarter presented consisted of twelve weeks. The one week difference generated approximately $6.3 million in revenue and $1.3 million in EBITDA. Year to date second quarter 2007 presented consisted of twenty six weeks combined Predecessor and Successor. Our 2006 year to date second quarter presented consisted of twenty eight weeks. The additional two weeks of operations in 2006 generated approximately $12.7 million in revenue and $1.7 million in EBITDA. |

Comparable QSR-owned sales dollar and annual percentage changes are based on locations that were open during the entire period within the periods presented. |

EBITDA represents earnings before interest income, interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income, cash flow from operations or other cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or as a measure of a company’s profitability or liquidity. Rather, we believe that EBITDA provides relevant and useful information for analysts of, and investors in, our 10.375% Notes in that EBITDA is one of the factors in the calculation of our compliance with the ratios in the Credit Facilities. We also internally use EBITDA to determine whether to continue operating restaurant units since it provides us with a measurement of whether we are receiving an adequate cash return on our investment. Our calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported by other companies, since all companies do not calculate this non-GAAP measure in the same manner. Our EBITDA calculations are not intended to represent cash provided by (used in) operating activities since they do not include interest and taxes and changes in operating assets and liabilities, nor are they intended to represent a net increase in cash since they do not include cash provided by (used in) investing and financing activities. |

Page 34
We operate two business segments. Our company-owned restaurant segment is comprised of the operating activities of our company owned QSR restaurants and other concept restaurants. Our franchise restaurant segment offers franchise opportunities worldwide for qualified operators to conduct business under the Sbarro name. Revenue from franchise operations is generated from initial franchise fees, ongoing royalties and other franchising revenue.
We do not allocate indirect corporate charges to the franchise operating segment. Such costs are managed on an entity-wide basis as the information to reasonably allocate such costs is not readily available.
We do not allocate assets by segment because our chief operating decision makers do not review the assets by segment to assess the segments’ performance as the assets are managed on an entity-wide basis.
Second Quarter 2007 Versus Second Quarter 2006
The following table sets forth the information concerning the revenue and operating income, before unallocated costs, of each of our company-owned and franchise restaurant segments for the thirteen weeks ended July 1, 2007 (Successor) and the twelve weeks ended July 16, 2006 (Predecessor) (in thousands):

Sales by QSR and consolidated other concept restaurants was $79.0 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 1, 2007 compared to $70.8 million for the twelve weeks ended July 16, 2006. The one week difference generated sales of $6 million. The increase in sales in 2007 resulted from same store sales growth of 3.0%. Second quarter 2006 real estate revenue was $.5 million. We transferred our interests in the real estate secured by the mortgage and our obligations under the related mortgage to a company owned by certain of our former shareholders in connection with the Merger.
Franchise related revenues were $3.6 million for the second quarter of 2007 as compared to $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2006. The one week difference in 2007 generated revenues of approximately $.3 million. The increase in 2007 is due to additional royalties for new franchise restaurants opened in 2007 versus 2006. Comparable unit sales for the thirteen week period increased 4.6% for domestic locations and 3.7% for international locations.
Cost of food and paper products as a percentage of restaurant sales increased to 20.2% for the thirteen weeks ended July 1, 2007 from 19.3% for the twelve weeks ended July 16, 2006. The cost of cheese in the second quarter of 2007 averaged approximately $1.75 per pound compared to an average of approximately $1.37 per pound in the second quarter of 2006. This $.38 per pound increase in cheese cost accounted for $.7 million or 1.0% of the increased cost.
Page 35
Payroll and other employee benefits, as a percentage of restaurant sales, increased to 28.0% in the second quarter of 2007 from 27.8% in the second quarter of 2006. The increase was primarily related to wage increases and increased payroll associated with new stores opened in the second quarter 2007.
Other operating costs as a percentage of restaurant sales increased to 37.5% in the second quarter 2007 as compared to 37.1% in the second quarter of 2006. The increase is due to increased occupancy costs, in part due to changes in deferred rent charges due to the Merger.
Other income was $.7 million for the second quarter of 2007 as compared to $1.4 million for the second quarter of 2006. The $.7 million decrease is primarily due to a decrease in certain rebates we receive on franchisee’s level of purchases.
General and administrative expenses were $6.8 million in the second quarter 2007 as compared to $6.9 million in the second quarter of 2006. The one week difference generated approximately $.3 million of expense. Expenses of $.7 million in 2006 related to our former shareholders were eliminated as a result of the Merger. An additional $.2 million was included in 2006 relating to a long-term special incentive. Management fees of $.3 million are including in 2007. General and administrative expenses were relatively flat after considering these items.
Interest expense of $8.1 million for the second quarter of 2007 is primarily related to the Senior Notes and Term Loan. Included in interest expense in the second quarter 2007 was amortization of deferred financing costs for the new debt of $.4 million. Interest expense of $7.1 million for the second quarter of 2006 related to the 11%, $255 million senior notes we issued to finance our going private transaction and the 8.4%, $16 million mortgage loan on our corporate headquarters. In connection with the Merger, the 11% Notes were redeemed and the mortgage loan and interests in the building were transferred to a company owned by certain of our former shareholders.
Equity in the net income of unconsolidated affiliates represented our proportionate share of earnings and losses in those other concept restaurants in which we have a 50% or less ownership interest. In connection with the Merger, our interests in these unconsolidated affiliates were transferred to a company owned by certain of our former shareholders.
In the second quarter of 2007, we were taxed as a C corporation. The income tax benefit was $1.5 million for the second quarter 2007. Our effective tax rate was 39% for the period. In the second quarter 2006, we were taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code and, where applicable and permitted, under similar state and local income tax provisions. Under the provisions of Subchapter S, substantially all taxes on our income were paid by our shareholders rather than us. Our net tax expense was $.3 million for the second quarter of 2006.

Sales by QSR and consolidated other concept restaurants was $155.6 million for the combined twenty six weeks ended July 1, 2007 compared to $164.6 million for the twenty eight weeks ended July 16, 2006. The two additional weeks generated sales of $12 million. The increase in sales in 2007 resulted from same store sales increase of 2.9% partially offset by sales of stores closed in 2006 in excess of stores opened. Predecessor real estate revenue was $.3 million in the first half of 2007 and first half of 2006 real estate revenue was $1.4 million. We transferred our interests in the real estate to a company owned by certain of our former shareholders in connection with the Merger. We believe that the improvement in comparable unit sales was due to improved economic conditions in the United States, improvement in our operational controls, upgraded field and store management combined with higher check averages and selective price increases.
Franchise related revenues were $7.1 million for the combined year to date 2007 as compared to $7.4 million in the year to date 2006. The two additional weeks generated revenues of approximately $.7 million. Excluding this amount from the 2006 period, the increase for the comparable twenty six weeks in 2007 is due to increased franchise fees for new franchise restaurants in 2007. Comparable unit sales for the twenty six week period in 2007 increased 4.5% for domestic locations and 5.3% for international locations.
Cost of food and paper products as a percentage of restaurant sales was 19.9% for the combined first half of 2007 compared to 19.4% in 2006. The cost of cheese in the combined first half of 2007 averaged approximately $1.64 per pound compared to an average of approximately $1.43 per pound in the first half of 2006. This $.21 per pound increase in cheese cost accounted for $.8 million or .5% of the increased cost.
Page 37
Payroll and other employee benefits, as a percentage of restaurant sales, increased to 28.2% in the combined first half of 2007 from 27.8% in the first half of 2006. The increase was primarily related to wage increases and increased payroll associated with new stores opened in the first half of 2007.
Other operating costs as a percentage of restaurant sales remained relatively flat at 36.9% in the combined first half of 2007 as compared to 36.8% in the first half of 2006.
Other income was $1.6 million for the combined first half of 2007 as compared to $2.5 million for the first half of 2006. Other income for the additional two weeks in 2006 were approximately $.3 million. The remaining decrease is primarily due to a decrease in certain rebates we received based on franchisee’s level of purchases.
General and administrative expenses were $14.1 million in the combined first half of 2007 compared to $16.5 million in the first half of 2006. The additional two weeks generated approximately $.6 million of expense. Expenses of $.2 million in 2007 and $1.6 million in 2006 related to our former shareholders were eliminated as a result of the Merger. An additional $.4 million was included in 2006 relating to a long-term special incentive. Management fees of $.4 million are included in 2007. General and administrative expenses for the comparable twenty six week periods were flat after considering these items.
Predecessor special event bonuses of $31.4 million in combined first half of 2007 relates to the Merger.
Interest expense of $15.9 million for the combined first half of 2007 related primarily to the Senior Notes and Term Loan and included $.6 million amortization of deferred financing costs for the new debt. $16.8 million of interest expense for the first half of 2006 related to the 11%, $255 million senior notes we issued to finance our going private transaction and the 8.4%, $16 million mortgage loan on our corporate headquarters. In connection with the Merger, the 11% Notes were redeemed and the mortgage loan and interests in the building were transferred to a company owned by certain of our former shareholders.
Equity in the net income of unconsolidated affiliates represented our proportionate share of earnings and losses in those other concept restaurants in which we have a 50% or less ownership interest. In connection with the Merger, our interests in these unconsolidated affiliates were transferred to a company owned by certain of our former shareholders.
In the 2007 Successor periods, we are taxed as a C corporation. The income tax benefit was $2.0 million for the period January 31 through July 1, 2007. Our effective tax rate was 39% for the period. In 2006, we were taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code and, where applicable and permitted, under similar state and local income tax provisions. Under the provisions of Subchapter S, substantially all taxes on our income were paid by our shareholders rather than us. Our net tax expense was $.7 million for the first half of 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Principal Cash Requirements and Sources
Our liquidity requirements relate to debt service, capital expenditures, working capital, investments in other ventures, and acquisitions. We estimate that our annual cash interest expense under the Senior Notes and Senior Credit Facilities that we put into place in connection with the Merger will be approximately $30 million. We also may incur additional interest expense for borrowings under our line of credit. The Senior Credit Facilities require us to prepay outstanding borrowings, subject to certain exceptions, with (a) 50% of our annual excess cash flow (subject to stepdowns based upon our total leverage ratio); (b) 100% of the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales or other dispositions of property (including casualty insurance and condemnations) if we do not commit to reinvest such proceeds in accordance with the terms of the Senior Credit Facilities within 365 days of the event giving rise thereto (or, to the extent we have entered into a commitment to reinvest such proceeds within such time period to the extent such amounts are actually reinvested, within six months of the expiration of such 365 days); and (c) 100% of the net cash proceeds of any incurrence of debt, other than debt permitted under the Senior Credit Facilities. We are not required to make principal payments, absent the occurrence of certain events, on our Senior Notes until they mature in 2015. We believe that aggregate capital expenditures for all of 2007 will approximate $15 million. Additionally, we bought back franchise and purchased other locations for approximately $4.8 million year to date in 2007.
Based on our current level of operations, we believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and available borrowings under our Senior Credit Facilities will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months.
Page 38
Contractual Obligations
We enter into various agreements that result in contractual payment obligations in connection with our business activities. These obligations primarily relate to our financing arrangements and leases of real property for our company-owned restaurants.
The following table presents our contractual obligations as of July 1, 2007:

Represents our maximum reimbursement obligations to the issuer of the letters of credit in the event the letters of credit are drawn upon. The letters of credit generally are issued instead of cash security deposits under operating leases or to guarantee construction costs for Sbarro or other concept locations. All of the standby letters of credit supporting leases are renewable annually through the expiration of the related lease terms. If not renewed, the beneficiary may draw upon the letters of credit as long as the underlying obligation remains outstanding. |

Does not reflect the impact of renewals of operating leases that are scheduled to expire during the periods indicated. Includes franchise lease guarantees and the lease on our corporate headquarters. |
(5) |
Does not include an amount we agreed to pay the former shareholders for any incremental tax benefit of deductions generated by the repurchase of our 11% Notes or payment of the special event bonuses. The payment is due within 15 days of the filing of the US tax return that claims these additional deductions. |
Historically, we had not purchased or entered into interest rate swaps of future, forward, option or other instruments designed to hedge against changes in interest rates, the price of commodities we purchase or the value of foreign currencies. Subsequent to the Merger, we entered into an Interest Rate Cap Letter Agreement with a bank for our Senior Credit Facility. This agreement caps our Libor rate at 6.00% through February 2009 and 6.50% through February 2010.
Senior Credit Facilities
We entered into new senior secured credit facilities simultaneously with the closing of the Merger. The Senior Credit Facilities are senior secured credit facilities providing for loans of $208.0 million under a $183.0 million senior secured term loan facility and a $25.0 million senior secured revolving facility. The revolving facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit not to exceed $10.0 million at any one time outstanding and swing line loans not to exceed $5.0 million at any one time outstanding. In addition, the Senior Credit Facilities provide for an uncommitted incremental facility of up to $50.0 million. In connection with the Merger, we borrowed the entire $183.0 million available under the term loan facility. The term loan facility will mature in 2014 and the revolving credit facility is scheduled to terminate and come due in 2013.
In general, borrowings under the Senior Credit Facilities bear interest based, at our option, at either the Eurodollar rate or an alternate base rate (“ABR”), in each case plus a margin. The applicable margin will be based on our total leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement governing the Senior Credit Facilities) at the time of determination. Our rate of interest for borrowings under the Senior Credit Facilities is LIBOR plus 2.50% or ABR plus 1.50%. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the Senior Credit Facilities, we are required to pay an unused line fee to the lenders in respect of the unutilized revolving commitments there under at a rate that shall not exceed 50 basis points per annum.
Our obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities will be unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by our domestic subsidiaries. In addition, the Senior Credit Facilities will be secured by first priority perfected security interests in substantially all of our and our domestic subsidiaries’ capital stock, and up to 65% of the outstanding capital stock of our foreign subsidiaries.
Page 39
The credit agreement governing the Senior Credit Facilities contains certain events of default and restrictive covenants which are customary with respect to facilities of this type, including limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, dividends, investments, repayment of certain indebtedness, sales of assets, liens, mergers and transactions with affiliates. In addition, the credit agreement requires compliance with certain financial and operating covenants, including a minimum cash interest coverage ratio and a maximum net leverage ratio.
10.375% Senior Notes due 2015
In connection with the Merger, we issued $150.0 million of Senior Notes due 2015. The notes bear interest which is payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year.
The Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of ours and are guaranteed by all of our current and future domestic subsidiaries and rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of ours. The Senior Notes are effectively subordinated to all secured indebtedness of ours, to the extent of the collateral securing such indebtedness, including the Senior Credit Facilities. In the event of any distribution or payment of our assets in any foreclosure, dissolution, winding-up, liquidation, reorganization, or other bankruptcy proceeding, holders of secured indebtedness will have prior claim to those of our assets that constitute their collateral. The Senior Notes are structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness, and other liabilities of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Senior Notes. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of our non-guarantor subsidiaries, holders of their indebtedness and their trade creditors will generally be entitled to payment of their claims in full from the assets of those subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to us. The Senior Notes are senior in right of payment to any future subordinated obligations of ours.
The indenture governing the notes contains certain events of default and restrictive covenants which are customary with respect to non-investment grade debt securities, including limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness, dividends, repurchases of capital stock, sales of assets, liens, mergers and transactions with affiliates. As discussed above, in connection with the Merger, we repurchased all of our 11% Notes. We also terminated our prior senior credit facility.

The change in net cash provided by operating activities is primarily related to an increase in accrued interest payable of $7.8 million and a decrease in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses of $3.4 million.
Net cash used in investing activities has historically been primarily for capital expenditures and was $199.0 million for the Successor period January 31 through July 1, 2007. The net cash used represents the net cash paid for the merger, capital expenditures of $6.3 million and buy back of franchise and other locations of $4.8 million. Net cash used was $1.7 million for the Predecessor period January 1 through January 30, 2007 and was $6.2 million for the twenty eight weeks ended July 16, 2006. Capital expenditures were utilized primarily for restaurant openings and renovation activity.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $198.5 million for the Successor period January 31 through July 1, 2007. The net cash represents proceeds from injected capital, the proceeds from the new debt and paydown of the old debt. Net cash used in financing activities for the Predecessor period January 1 through January 30, 2007 of $70.6 million represents dividends to sellers net of repayments of officer loans.
Critical Accounting Policies
Accounting policies are an integral part of the preparation of our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Understanding these policies, therefore, is a key factor in understanding our reported results of operations and financial position. Accounting policies often require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in our financial statements. Due to their nature, estimates involve judgments based upon available information. Therefore, actual results or amounts could differ from estimates and the difference could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. During the thirteen weeks ended July 1, 2007, there were no material changes in the accounting policies whose application may have the most significant effect on our reported results of operations or financial position and that require judgments, estimates and assumptions by management that can affect their application and our results of operations and financial position from those discussed under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies”, in Item 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending April 1, 2007.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
SFAS 157:
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The statement applies whenever other statements require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and based upon our preliminary analysis, it will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
EITF Issue No. 06-3:
In June 2006, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 06–3, “How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (that is, Gross versus Net Presentation)”, which allows companies to adopt a policy of presenting taxes in the income statement on either a gross or net basis. Taxes within the scope of this EITF would include taxes that are imposed on a revenue transaction between a seller and a customer. If such taxes are significant, the accounting policy should be disclosed as well as the amount of taxes included in the financial statements if presented on a gross basis. EITF 06–3 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2006. We had been accounting for sales tax as net and upon the adoption of EITF Issue No. 06-03 in the first quarter of Fiscal 2007 we continued to present as net.
SFAS 159:
In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). Under SFAS 159, a company may elect to measure eligible financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. If elected, SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing whether fair value accounting is appropriate for any of the Company’s eligible items and have not yet determined the impact, if any, on our consolidated financial statements.
FIN 48:
We adopted FIN 48 in the first quarter of 2007. Under FIN 48, tax benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. Unrecognized tax benefits are tax benefits claimed in tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements and we do not expect the change to have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial position during the next twelve months.
As permitted by FIN 48, we also adopted an accounting policy to prospectively classify accrued interest and penalties related to any unrecognized tax benefits in our income tax provision. Previously, our policy was to classify interest and penalties as an operating expense in arriving at pre-tax income. At July 1, 2007, we do not have accrued interest and penalties related to any unrecognized tax benefits. As we were taxed as a subchapter S corporation prior to the Merger, we do not believe we have taken any uncertain tax positions for our Successor period January 31, 2007 through July 1, 2007. The years subject to potential audit varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. The Company’s major taxing jurisdictions include New York, California, Florida, Texas and Ohio.
Certain Relationships and Transactions
During the second quarter of 2007, there were no Certain Relationships and Transactions in addition to those discussed under the heading “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions” in Item 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending April 1, 2007.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
The Company is exposed to certain risks, which exists as part of our ongoing business operations.
Interest Rate Risk
We have historically invested our cash on hand in short term, fixed rate, highly rated and highly liquid instruments which are reinvested when they mature throughout the year. The indenture governing the 10.375% Notes limits us to making similar investments. Although our existing investments are not considered at risk with respect to changes in interest rates or markets for these instruments, our rate of return on short-term investments could be affected at the time of reinvestment as a result of intervening events.
The interest rate on borrowings under our Senior Credit Facilities is floating and, therefore, is subject to fluctuations. In general, borrowings under the Senior Credit Facilities bear interest based, at our option, on either the Eurodollar rate or an alternative base rate (“ABR”), in each case plus a margin. The applicable margin will be based on our total leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement governing the Senior Credit Facilities) at the time of determination. Currently, our rate of interest for borrowings under the Senior Credit Facilities is LIBOR plus 2.50% or ABR plus 1.50%. A 1% change in our current rate would have an annual effect of approximately $1.8 million.
We have not purchased, and do not expect to purchase, future, forward, option or other instruments to hedge against fluctuations in the prices of the commodities we purchase. As a result, our future commodities purchases are subject to changes in the prices of such commodities. Subsequent to the Merger we entered unto an Interest Rate Cap Letter Agreement with a bank for our Senior Credit Facility. This agreement caps our LIBOR rate at 6.00% through February 2009 and 6.50% through February 2010.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
All of our transactions with foreign franchisees have been denominated in, and all payments have been made in, United States dollars, reducing the risks in the changes of the values of foreign currencies. As a result, we have not purchased future contracts, options or other instruments to hedge against changes in values of foreign currencies.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be met. As there are inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues within our Company have been detected. Inherent limitations include human errors or misjudgments. Controls also can be circumvented by the intentional acts of individuals or groups.
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of l934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including those officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the twenty six weeks ended July 1, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
