The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and practices of the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all of the normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 27, 2016 is derived from the audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. As a result, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2016.

Fiscal Year – The Company changed its fiscal year from a 12-month year ending on September 30 to a 52-53-week year ending on the last Tuesday of September, effective with fiscal year 2016. In a 52-week fiscal year, each of the Company’s quarterly periods comprise 13 weeks. The additional week in a 53-week fiscal year is added to the first quarter, making such quarter consist of 14 weeks. The Company made the fiscal year change on a prospective basis and did not adjust operating results for prior periods.

Our first three fiscal quarters of 2017 consisted of 39 weeks beginning on September 28, 2016 and ending on June 27, 2017, our first three fiscal quarters of 2016 consisted of nine calendar months beginning on October 1, 2015 and ending on June 30, 2016. Our first three fiscal quarters of 2017 included one less operating day than the first three fiscal quarters of 2016.

Advertising Costs – We utilize Advertising Funds to administer certain advertising programs for both the Good Times and Bad Daddy’s brands that benefit both us and our franchisees. We and our franchisees are required to contribute a percentage of gross sales to the fund. As the contributions to these funds are designated and segregated for advertising, we act as an agent for the franchisees with regard to these contributions. We consolidate the Advertising Funds into our financial statements on a net basis, whereby contributions from franchisees, when received, are recorded as offsets to reported advertising expenses. Contributions to the Advertising Funds from our franchisees were $271,000 and $282,000 for the first three fiscal quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Reclassification – Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on the net income or loss.
