The ONE Group Reports First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Quarterly Revenues Increased 46.9% and Adjusted EBITDA Increased 65.5%
Quarterly Consolidated Comparable Sales Increased 45.1% Compared to 2021 and 45.3% Compared to 2019

DENVER--()--The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. (“The ONE Group” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: STKS) today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Highlights for the first quarter compared to the same period in 2021 are as follows:

  • Total GAAP revenues increased 46.9% to $74.2 million from $50.5 million;
  • GAAP net income attributable to The ONE Group was $3.7 million, or $0.11 per share ($0.15 adjusted net income per share)****, compared to GAAP net income of $70 thousand, or $0.00 per share ($0.05 adjusted net income per share)****;
  • Restaurant Operating Profit*** increased 40.8% to $13.0 million from $9.3 million; and
  • Adjusted EBITDA** increased 65.5% to $10.8 million from $6.5 million.

Comparable sales* for the first quarter compared to the same periods in 2021 and 2019:

  • Compared to 2021:
    • Consolidated comparable sales* increased 45.1%;
    • Comparable sales* for STK increased 66.5%; and
    • Comparable sales* for Kona Grill increased 21.9%;
  • Compared to 2019:
    • Consolidated comparable sales* increased 45.3%;
    • Comparable sales* for STK increased 62.9%; and
    • Comparable sales* for Kona Grill increased 27.5%

“We exceeded the high-end of our revenue guidance by $4 million and delivered industry-leading comparable sales growth along with strong restaurant operating profit and adjusted EBITDA despite significant commodity inflation, labor challenges, and the effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This brought adjusted EBITDA to nearly $47.0 million for the 12-months ended March 31, 2022, a new record. Our quarterly performance is a true testament to our operational execution and ability to deliver VIBE dining experiences in every market where we operate to every guest, every time. Our sales momentum has continued into 2022, as demonstrated by our strong comparable sales compared to 2021 and 2019, showing that interest in dining at our highly differentiated upscale and polished casual restaurants remains strong,” said Emanuel “Manny” Hilario, President and CEO of The ONE Group.

Hilario continued, “We believe we are still in the early stages of a long-term growth story, and we continue to build a portfolio of high volume, high margin brands with compelling returns. Our robust 2022 development pipeline consists of at least nine new venues, the most we have had in a single year, including two Company-owned STKs, three Company-owned Kona Grills, a managed STK, and three licensed units for takeout and delivery in conjunction with REEF Kitchens. As our footprint increases, we should benefit from leveraging system-wide operating efficiencies and best practices through G&A management as a percentage of revenues.”

*Comparable sales represent total U.S. food and beverage sales at owned and managed units opened for at least a full 18-months. This measure includes total revenue from our owned and managed locations. Three-year comparable sales relate to the comparison of comparable sales for the period 1/1/2022––3/31/2022 to the period 1/1/2019––3/31/2019. The Company monitors sales growth at its established restaurant base in addition to growth that results from restaurant acquisitions; the Company has presented three-year comparable sales to illustrate how sales at its restaurant base before the COVID-19 pandemic compare to sales as COVID-19 restrictions have eased and the Company has reopened in-person dining.

** Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment loss, non-cash rent expense, pre-opening expenses, non-recurring gains and losses including incremental costs related to COVID-19, stock-based compensation and certain transactional costs. Adjusted EBITDA has been presented in this press release and is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Refer to the reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA in this release.

***Restaurant Operating Profit. We define Restaurant Operating Profit as owned restaurant net revenue minus owned restaurant cost of sales and owned restaurant operating expenses. Restaurant Operating Profit has been presented in this press release and is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Refer to the reconciliation of Operating income (Loss) to Restaurant Operating Profit in this release.

****Adjusted Net Income (Loss). We define Adjusted Net Income as net income before gains on CARES Act Loan forgiveness, COVID-19 costs, lease termination expenses, one-time stock-based compensation and the income tax effect of the adjustment. Adjusted Net Income has been presented in this press release and is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Refer to the reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted Net Income in this release.

First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Total GAAP revenues increased $23.7 million, or 46.9%, to $74.2 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $50.5 million in the first quarter of 2021.

Total owned restaurant net revenues increased $21.3 million, or 43.4%, to $70.5 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $49.2 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to strong execution of sales driving initiatives. Consolidated comparable sales* increased 45.1% from the first quarter of 2021.

Management and license fee revenues increased $2.4 million, or 178.9% to $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to local governments lifting stay at home orders and easing seating capacity restrictions in the markets in which we operate as well as revenue generated from the opening of two managed STKs, one licensed STK and three managed F&B venues during 2021.

Restaurant Operating Profit*** increased $3.8 million, or 40.8%, to $13.0 million and represented 18.5% of Company-owned restaurant net revenues in the first quarter of 2022 compared to $9.3 million and 18.8% of Company-owned restaurant net revenues in the first quarter of 2021. The slight decrease was primarily driven by higher commodity costs partially offset by higher sales and strong management of operating costs.

GAAP net income attributable to The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. in the first quarter of 2022 was $3.7 million, or $0.11 per share, compared to GAAP net income of $70 thousand, or $0.00 per share, in the first quarter of 2021.

Adjusted Net Income**** attributable to The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. in the first quarter of 2022 was $5.0 million, or $0.15 per share, compared to adjusted net income of $1.6 million, or $0.05 per share, in the first quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA** increased $4.3 million, or 65.5%, to $10.8 million in the first quarter of 2022 from $6.5 million in the first quarter of 2021.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $28.6 million in cash and cash equivalents, $24.6 million in term loan debt, and $10.6 million available on its revolving credit facility, subject to certain conditions.

Restaurant Development

The Company intends to open at least nine new venues in 2022. There are currently two Company-owned STK restaurants (San Francisco, CA and Dallas, TX), three Company-owned Kona Grill restaurants (Riverton, UT, Columbus, OH and Desert Ridge, Arizona) and one managed STK restaurant (Stratford, UK) under development. In addition, in conjunction with REEF Kitchens, the Company plans to test and open three licensed units in Texas for takeout and delivery only. These units will feature offerings from STK, Kona Grill and Bao Yum concepts.

Preliminary Second Quarter 2022 Targets

As a reminder, the Company is lapping very strong comparable store sales from the second quarter of 2021. Company targets in the second quarter of 2022 are:

  • Total GAAP revenues of approximately $76.5 million to $79.0 million;
    • Owned restaurant net revenue of $73.0 million to $75.0 million;
    • Management, license and incentive fee revenue of $3.5 million to $4.0 million; and
  • Total G&A of approximately $7.0 million.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In this press release, we also make references to the following non-GAAP financial measures: total food and beverage sales at owned and managed units, Adjusted EBITDA, Restaurant Operating Profit and Adjusted Net Income (Loss).

Total food and beverage sales at owned and managed units. Total food and beverage sales at owned and managed units represents our total revenue from our owned operations as well as the revenue reported to us with respect to sales at our managed locations, where we earn management and incentive fees at these locations. We believe that this measure represents a useful internal measure of performance as it identifies total sales associated with our brands and hospitality services that we provide. Accordingly, we include this non-GAAP measure so that investors can review financial data that management uses in evaluating performance, and we believe that it will assist the investment community in assessing performance of restaurants and other services we operate, whether or not the operation is owned by us. However, because this measure is not determined in accordance with GAAP, it is susceptible to varying calculations and not all companies calculate these measures in the same manner. As a result, this measure as presented may not be directly comparable to a similarly titled measure presented by other companies. This non-GAAP measure is presented as supplemental information and not as an alternative to any GAAP measurements. The following table includes a reconciliation of our GAAP revenue to total food and beverage sales at our owned and managed units (in thousands):

Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment loss, non-cash rent expense, pre-opening expenses, non-recurring gains and losses, stock-based compensation, COVID-19 related expense and certain transactional costs. Not all the aforementioned items defining Adjusted EBITDA occur in each reporting period but have been included in our definitions of terms based on our historical activity. Adjusted EBITDA has been presented in this press release and is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP.

Restaurant Operating Profit. We define Restaurant Operating Profit as owned restaurant net revenue minus owned restaurant cost of sales and owned restaurant operating expenses.

We believe Restaurant Operating Profit is an important component of financial results because: (i) it is a widely used metric within the restaurant industry to evaluate restaurant-level productivity, efficiency, and performance, and (ii) we use Restaurant Operating Profit as a key metric to evaluate our restaurant financial performance compared to our competitors. We use these metrics to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period, to analyze the factors and trends affecting our business and to evaluate the performance of our restaurants.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss). We define Adjusted Net Income as net income before gains on CARES Act Loan forgiveness, COVID-19 costs, lease termination, one-time stock-based compensation and acceleration and the income tax effect of the adjustment.

We believe that Adjusted Net Income is an appropriate measure of operating performance, as it provides a clear picture of our operating results by eliminating certain one-time expenses that are not reflective of the underlying business performance. Adjusted Net Income is included in this press release because it is a key metric used by management, and we believe that it provides useful information facilitating performance comparisons from period to period. Adjusted Net Income has limitations as an analytical tool and our calculation thereof may not be comparable to that reported by other companies; accordingly, you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.
