(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Consolidated Financial Statements of Roadhouse Grill, Inc. (the “Company”) for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended January 26, 2003 and January 27, 2002 are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for the interim periods. The Consolidated Financial Statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements, together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fifty-two weeks ended April 28, 2002 (“fiscal year 2002”).

The Company operates on a fifty-two or fifty-three week fiscal year. Each fiscal quarter consists of thirteen weeks, except in the case of a fifty-three week year, in which case the fourth fiscal quarter consists of fourteen weeks.

The results of operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended January 26, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year ending April 27, 2003 (“fiscal year 2003”).

While in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding, the Company applied the provisions of SOP 90-7, “Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code,” which does not significantly change the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States; however, it does require that the financial statements for periods including and subsequent to the Chapter 11 bankruptcy distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from those transactions that are the result of ongoing operations of the business.

The Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business, and in accordance with SOP 90-7. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is predicated upon, among other things, the Company’s ability to generate cash flow from operations to service debt and lease obligations and to otherwise meet its operating expenses and the ability to obtain sufficient financing to satisfy future obligations. See Item 2. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition” for additional information about the Company’s liquidity and capital resources.

(2) PROCEEDINGS UNDER CHAPTER 11 OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE

On January 18, 2002 (the “Petition Date”), an involuntary petition (the “Involuntary Petition”) for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) was filed against the Company by certain of its creditors, all of which were affiliated with one another (collectively, the “Petitioning Creditors”), in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Florida (the “Court”). Prior to the Petition Date, the Company had been experiencing significant cash flow problems primarily resulting from the opening of 31 new restaurants in the prior three years combined with a net loss of $15.9 million in fiscal year 2001 and a net loss of $21.4 million in fiscal year 2002. Prior to the filing of the Involuntary Petition, the Company had been in negotiations with the Petitioning Creditors and its other major creditors in an effort to effect an out-of-court restructuring of its liabilities.

In response to the filing of the Involuntary Petition, the Company initially filed a motion requesting the Court to abstain from taking jurisdiction over the Company to allow out-of-court restructuring efforts to continue. Ultimately, however, the Company decided to consent to the entry of an order for relief in the Chapter 11 case, provided that the order would not be entered until the Company had an opportunity to prepare a Chapter 11 plan of reorganization.

On April 16, 2002 (the “Relief Date”), the Court entered an order for relief and the Company filed its proposed Chapter 11 plan of reorganization and its disclosure statement in support of its plan of reorganization. Subsequent to the entry of the order for relief, the Company temporarily operated its businesses as a debtor-in-possession pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code and concentrated its efforts on emerging from Chapter 11 as quickly as possible.

In its plan of reorganization, the Company classified the claims of its creditors and interests of its equity security holders and provided for the treatment of such claims and interests. Under the Bankruptcy Code, various classes of claims and interests were entitled to vote on whether to accept or reject the plan of reorganization. On June 12, 2002, the Company filed Debtor’s Second Amended and Restated Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization, as Modified (the “Plan”) and Debtor’s Second Amended and Restated Disclosure Statement in Support of Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization, as Modified (the “Disclosure Statement”). The Court conducted a hearing on June 12, 2002 to consider approval of the Disclosure Statement. On June 20, 2002, the Court issued an order approving the Disclosure Statement, authorizing the Disclosure Statement, Plan and ballot to be disseminated to creditors and equity security holders and scheduling a hearing on confirmation of the Plan for August 21, 2002.

On June 25, 2002, a hearing was held on the motion of the Petitioning Creditors to terminate the exclusivity period within which only the Company could file a plan of reorganization and to delay the hearing on confirmation of the Plan. On June 26, 2002, the Court terminated exclusivity but refused to postpone the hearing on confirmation of the Plan.

Thereafter, Restaurants Acquisition I, Inc., an entity affiliated with the Petitioning Creditors, filed a competing plan of reorganization, dated July 15, 2002 (the “RAI Plan”). The Petitioning Creditors and creditors affiliated with them (collectively, “CNL”) vigorously opposed confirmation of the Plan. In addition, certain other creditors initially cast ballots rejecting the Plan and/or filed objections to confirmation of the Plan.

Table of Contents

As the date of the confirmation hearing approached, the Company engaged in further negotiations with rejecting and objecting creditors in an effort to resolve their objections to the Plan. By August 19, 2002, most of the objections had been resolved and the Company filed a modification of the Plan reflecting the resolution of those objections (the “Modification”).

As of August 19, 2002, the principal remaining objections were the objections of CNL. However, the Company reached agreement with CNL shortly before the commencement of the confirmation hearing. Under the agreement, CNL withdrew its objections to the Plan, changed its rejections to acceptances of the Plan and caused the RAI Plan to be withdrawn. The agreement was embodied in a term sheet between the Company and CNL dated August 21, 2002 (the “Term Sheet”).

The hearing on confirmation of the Plan, as modified by the Modification and the Term Sheet, took place on August 21, 2002. At the close of the hearing, the Court announced that the Plan, as modified by the Modification, the Term Sheet and the Confirmation Order (as hereinafter defined) (the “Confirmed Plan of Reorganization”), would be confirmed. On August 23, 2002, the Court issued its Order Confirming Debtor’s Second Amended and Restated Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization, as Modified (the “Confirmation Order”).

The Confirmed Plan of Reorganization became effective on September 20, 2002 (the “Effective Date”). Under the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization, the Company received an infusion of new capital of $5.0 million in exchange for 13,888,889 shares of the authorized but unissued common stock of the Company, constituting 47.53% of the outstanding stock of the reorganized Company. The 13,888,889 shares were issued in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(2) of, and Regulation D promulgated under, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Private Placement Securities”). The Private Placement Securities were issued to Berjaya Group (Cayman) Limited (“Berjaya”), Prime Gaming Philippines, Inc. (“Prime”), Tonto Capital Partners GP, and Stephen C. Saterbo (“Saterbo”), as more particularly set forth in the table immediately below and reflecting the post-restructuring percentage ownership for each respective investment.

Berjaya is the Company’s majority shareholder, representing, with its affiliates, ownership of approximately 71% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. It is headquartered in Malaysia. Prime is an affiliate of Berjaya. It is 70% owned by Berjaya Group Berhad, which owns 100% of Berjaya. Prime is headquartered in the Philippines. Tonto Capital Partners GP is affiliated with Ayman Sabi, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President, and a director.

Saterbo is a senior vice president, member of the board of directors, and substantial shareholder of Colorado Boxed Beef Company, a major supplier to the Company.

Additionally, pursuant to the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization Berjaya received, in full satisfaction of a $1.5 million loan to the Company, 4,166,667 shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued common stock at $.36 per share, representing 14.26% of the outstanding stock of the reorganized Company.

In accordance with the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization, each existing holder of Common Stock received additional Common Stock equal to 15% of the shares which they previously held. After issuance of the additional shares, the existing shareholders own an aggregate of 11,165,107 shares of the outstanding common stock, representing 38.21% of the outstanding stock of the reorganized Company. The total number of shares of common stock outstanding after effecting the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization is 29,220,663.

Under bankruptcy law, actions by creditors to collect indebtedness owed prior to the Petition Date and/or prior to the Relief Date were stayed and certain other pre-petition and Gap (January 18, 2002 through April 16, 2002, which is the period of time between the Petition Date and the Relief Date) contractual obligations could not be enforced against the Company. The Company received approval from the Court to pay certain pre-petition and “gap” liabilities including employee salaries and wages, benefits, and other employee obligations. Liabilities through the date the Company emerged from bankruptcy, September 20, 2002, which were incurred pre-petition or during the “gap period” had previously been classified as liabilities subject to compromise. With the Company having emerged from bankruptcy, these liabilities were adjusted during the thirty-nine weeks ended January 26, 2003 to the amounts to be paid pursuant to the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization. As a result, these liabilities have been decreased and the Company has recorded an extraordinary gain relating to the early extinguishment of debt in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations in the amount of $0.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively, for the thirteen and the thirty-nine weeks ended January 26, 2003. This decrease is primarily comprised of lease obligations that were stayed while the Company was in bankruptcy and other obligations that were canceled as a result of the bankruptcy proceeding. As of January 26, 2003, final resolution of certain obligations had not yet been reached. Accordingly, future extraordinary items may need to be recognized as final resolutions are reached. It is currently anticipated that all such remaining items will be resolved during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. Management does not currently believe the remaining items will be material.

As restructured under the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization, the Company’s secured and unsecured debt, as well as assumed leases and executory contracts, will require substantial monthly payments over extended future periods. The Company’s future success will depend, in part, on its ability to meet these payment obligations. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to do so.

Reorganization items represent amounts incurred as a result of the Chapter 11 proceedings in accordance with SOP 90-7. The Company has incurred $3.4 million of expenses relating to its reorganization, including $0.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively, during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended January 26, 2003. These expenses primarily include fees for legal,

Table of Contents

accounting, consulting, and outside services. Additionally, on the Petition Date, the Company stopped accruing interest on all unsecured pre-petition debt in accordance with SOP 90-7. With the confirmation of its plan of reorganization, the Company is now required to make regular payments on all debt pursuant to the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization.

(3) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of restaurants held under capital leases is recorded at the lower of the net present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased property at the inception of the lease. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Major renewals and betterments, which substantially extend the useful life of the property, are capitalized and depreciated over the useful life of the asset. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from their respective accounts and any gain or loss is recognized. Property and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Estimated useful lives include consideration of lease renewals in situations in which the Company has both an option and the current intent to renew the lease.

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. This Statement requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company regularly reviews the performance of its individual restaurants to identify possible under-performing operations that should be assessed for possible impairments of long-lived assets. As part of this analysis, management considers factors that have in the past and may continue to impact operating results. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

Assets held for sale include properties owned by the Company which are currently being marketed for sale and are carried at estimated net realizable value.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company accounts for intangible assets in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. As of January 26, 2003, the Company had unamortized goodwill in the amount of $1.5 million, and the remaining unamortized balance of identifiable intangible assets in the amount of $0.4 million. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, goodwill is subject to an

10

Table of Contents

annual impairment test based on its fair value and no amortization of goodwill is recorded. Therefore, the Company has not amortized goodwill in fiscal 2003. The amortization expense related to goodwill that was recorded in the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended January 27, 2002 was $33,000 and $100,000, respectively. The other intangible assets, which have been determined to have a finite life, are being amortized over their useful lives.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of January 26, 2003, $38,344 of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents was held in escrow for payment of bankruptcy claims.

During the thirty-nine weeks ended January 26, 2003, the Company recorded certain non-cash transactions including the recording of capital leases of approximately $3.5 million which increased property, plant and equipment and capital lease obligations by a like amount. In addition, pursuant to the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization, during the thirty-nine weeks ended January 26, 2003, the Company converted various accounts payable and accrued expense liabilities to long term debt in the aggregate amount of approximately $13.0 million.

INVENTORY

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost (based on first-in, first-out inventory costing) or net realizable value and consists primarily of restaurant food items, beverages and paper supplies.

INCOME TAXES

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 and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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.

During the fiscal month of January 2003, an anticipated income tax refund receivable in the amount of approximately $1.2 million was recorded in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended January 26, 2003. This receivable is attributable to a federal carryback claim of the Company’s alternative minimum tax net operating loss generated for the tax year ended April 30, 2002. The carryback claim results from a change to Internal Revenue Code Section 172, as it relates to the alternative minimum tax net operating loss limitations and the period for carrying back net operating losses pursuant to the Job Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002. The information necessary to make a determination as to whether or not the new provisions of the Internal Revenue Code would result in a realizable benefit to the Company did not become available until January 2003. Although there can be no assurance, the Company expects to collect such refund during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003.

11

Table of Contents

The Company anticipates that it may receive additional federal and state refunds in the future through the amendment of previously filed returns, however the amounts have not yet been determined and therefore are not recorded. These additional refunds, if and when determined to exist, are not currently expected to exceed $0.3 million.

PRE-OPENING COSTS

Pre-opening costs are costs incurred in the opening of new restaurants (primarily payroll costs) and are expensed as incurred. Deferred costs related to restaurant sites subsequently determined to be unsatisfactory and general site selection costs that cannot be identified with a specific restaurant are charged to operations as incurred.

FISCAL YEAR

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last Sunday in April.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results, particularly with respect to matters impacted by the proceedings under Chapter 11, could differ materially from those estimates.

In addition, asset impairment charges, restructuring charges, and the reserve for restructuring are predominantly based on estimates of the market value of assets of which the Company plans to dispose and the amount of future cash flows estimated to be realized relating to impaired assets that are anticipated to be utilized in the Company operations in the future. Such estimates will also be affected by the time interval required to dispose of those assets to be sold. Actual results could be materially different.

DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The estimated fair values of financial instruments have been determined based on available information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the accounts. The fair value of long-term debt is estimated based on market rates of interest currently available to the Company. The carrying values of long-term debt and capital leases at January 26, 2003 and April 28, 2002 approximate fair value.

Table of Contents

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Sales by Company-operated restaurants are recognized daily as cash and credit card receipts are received. Revenues from franchised and affiliated restaurants are derived from royalties and initial setup fees. Initial fees are recognized upon opening of a restaurant, which is when the Company has performed substantially all initial services required by the franchise arrangement.

Royalties and income from the Company’s joint venture are recorded as the sales of the franchisees and joint venture are reported to the Company. In addition, the Company receives rental income from various sources. All uncollected income related to franchise and joint venture operations is subject to an assessment of collectability and an allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded if collection is not reasonably assured.

ADVERTISING COSTS

The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense is included within “occupancy and other” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock options as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25.

(4) LIQUIDITY

The Company’s material financial commitments relate principally to its working capital requirements and its obligations to make operating and capital lease and term loan payments, monthly interest payments on its various loans and lease payments in accordance with the terms of its real property leases. As of January 26, 2003, total minimum annual payments required under the Company’s debt and lease obligations were $16.9 million. In addition, capital requirements relating to the opening of new restaurants have in the past been (and may in the future be) significant.

During fiscal year 2002, the Company’s primary sources of working capital were a sale-leaseback credit facility with Franchise Finance Corporation of America (“FFCA”) and working capital provided by operations. The FFCA debt has been restructured as a result of the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization. During fiscal year 2003, the Company’s primary sources of working capital have been and are expected to continue to be cash generated from operations and proceeds from possible sales of assets relating to closed facilities, net of any required debt repayments.

The Company expects to open two additional restaurants near the end of fiscal year 2003 at a total cost of approximately $2.9 million, including approximately $0.8 million to be expended after January 26, 2003. It is expected that the cash required to develop new restaurants will be generated from operations. Should cash from operations be insufficient for future expansion, and should additional capital through debt and equity sources be unavailable, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to open additional restaurants.

13

Table of Contents

The Company has experienced significant cash flow problems in the past. The Company believes that its ability to generate cash from operations is dependent upon, among other things, increased demand for its products, development and implementation of successful marketing strategies and continuing its efforts to reduce its operating costs. The Company has implemented revenue enhancement programs along with cost reduction initiatives designed to produce positive cash flow and achieve sustainable profitable operations. There can be no assurance that these initiatives will be effective in generating profits or producing sufficient cash flows to fund operating requirements including debt repayments and lease obligations.

Capital requirements relating to the implementation of the Company’s business plan have been and will continue to be significant. If cash generated from the Company’s operations and possible sales of assets relating to closed facilities are insufficient to fund the Company’s financial commitments and working capital requirements (including amounts required to support future growth), the Company will have to obtain additional financing. There can be no guarantee or assurance that additional debt and/or equity financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. In the event the Company is unable to secure such additional financing, the Company may have to significantly curtail its operations.

(5) ASSET IMPAIRMENT AND RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

In September 2001, the Company closed one unprofitable restaurant. In October 2001, the Company made the decision to close and sell 13 additional unprofitable restaurants. All but one of those restaurants was closed by November 12, 2001. The remaining restaurant continues to be operated while the Company is considering a possible sale. The Company recorded a $5.8 million asset impairment/restructure charge in the second quarter of fiscal year 2002. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2002, the Company revised its impairment/restructure charge relating to those 13 stores from $5.8 million to $9.6 million. Also, in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2002, the Company accrued for an asset impairment/restructure charge for four additional restaurants that were closed subsequent to April 28, 2002 and for two undeveloped restaurant sites. The Company’s management made the decision to close these four restaurants and the decision not to build on the two undeveloped restaurant sites in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2002. However, the actual closing of the restaurants occurred subsequent to the fiscal year end. The asset impairment/restructure charge relating to these four restaurants and the exit from the two undeveloped restaurant sites totaled $3.0 million.

During the thirteen weeks ended October 27, 2002, the restructuring accrual was reduced by $3.7 million due to the reclassification of certain obligations to long term debt or capital lease obligation based on the final terms of the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization and an additional restructuring charge of $0.1 million was recorded primarily to adjust an estimated lease commitment liability to its final negotiated amount. Also, during the second quarter of fiscal year 2003, the Company recognized a $4.8 million asset impairment charge relating to long-lived assets at certain restaurants that are not performing as expected and fixtures and equipment owned or relating to capital leases at certain of the closed restaurants described above. The asset impairment relating to the under performing restaurants was based on the estimated future cash flow projections of those restaurants being insufficient to recover the cost of the long-lived assets. The asset impairment recorded during the thirteen weeks ended October 27, 2002 also

14

Table of Contents

included the recognition of an impairment of $0.3 million relating to a former deposit that has been deemed not to be collectable.

During the thirteen weeks ended January 26, 2003, the Company reduced its restructuring accrual by $0.1 million to reflect a change in the estimated amount to be paid relating to certain of its rejected lease commitments as a result of final negotiations relating to these obligations.

The following is a summary of the significant components of the Company’s asset impairment and restructuring charges for all of fiscal 2002 and for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2003 (in millions):

Asset impairment for fiscal 2002 included the estimated loss on the sale of the 18 restaurants and/or restaurant sites. In the case of the five mortgaged restaurant sites and the six restaurant sites on which the Company had a ground lease and built a building, the charge represents the difference between the net book value of the assets and the estimated net sale proceeds after all fees and commissions. The loss on rejection of lease commitments represents the settlement amount of leases rejected under the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization. Lease payments represent the value of anticipated lease payments until all of the real estate leased assets are sold. Bank and other charges include the cost to restructure all of the Company’s debt with its lenders and other fees associated with the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization including legal fees, loan documentation fees and other fees. Other charges also include all of the other costs related to shut down of the closed restaurant locations including travel expense, the cost to relocate the food inventory and equipment to other locations and other miscellaneous costs.

The following is a summary of the activity in the Company’s accrual for restructuring charges (in millions):

(6) LONG-TERM DEBT

As of January 26, 2003, the Company’s long-term debt was comprised of the following items (amounts in millions):

Table of Contents

(7) CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS

The Company has entered into various lease agreements relating to buildings and furniture, fixtures and equipment that qualify as capital lease obligations under generally accepted accounting principles. Such lease agreements expire over periods ranging from four to 20 years. As of January 26, 2003, the total capital lease obligations and current portion of such capital lease obligations was $6.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

(8) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

CLASS ACTION SUIT AND SEC INFORMAL INVESTIGATION

As a result of a review of its accounting records, the Company, in August 2001, restated its previously reported, audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2000 and April 25, 1999, and the related, unaudited quarterly financial statements for those periods, as well as the unaudited financial statements for the quarters ended July 30, 2000, October 29, 2000, and January 28, 2001. In connection with the restatement, the Company filed amended Form 10-Ks for fiscal years 2000 and 1999, and amended Form 10-Qs for the fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999 quarters containing the restated financial statements.

The restatement occurred because of a determination by the Company that certain operating expenses were more appropriately attributable to fiscal 2000 and 1999 than later periods. The restatement resulted in a decrease in net income for fiscal 2000 and 1999, and the related quarterly periods, and an increase in net income for the quarters ended July 30, 2000, October 29, 2000 and January 28, 2001.

On April 10, 2002, a purported class action complaint alleging violations of federal securities laws was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against the Company, the chairman of the Company’s board of directors, and the Company’s president and chief executive officer. This action (the “Action”) is styled: Sears v. Roadhouse Grill, Inc, et al., Case No. 02-CV-60493.

The Action purports to be brought on behalf of all purchasers of the stock of the Company between August 31, 1998 and August 1, 2001, with certain exclusions, and appears to be based principally, if not solely, on the fact that certain financial statements have been restated as described above. The Company believes there is no merit to the Action. The Company further believes that, under section 510(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, even if claims of the type asserted in the Action are allowed, they will be subordinated, in the Chapter 11 Case, to the claims of all creditors of the Company. Accordingly, such claims are treated under the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization as subordinate to the claims of all creditors.

As the Company filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code on April 16, 2002, any claims in this Action should have been filed by the plaintiffs with the Court. If the plaintiffs had filed a claim with the Court, their claim against the Company would have been subordinated to the claims of all creditors of the Company. However, no claim against the Company was filed during the bankruptcy proceedings. Therefore, based on discussions with

17

Table of Contents

counsel, it is the Company’s expectation that the case against the Company will be dismissed. Should the Action brought by the plaintiffs be successful, the plaintiffs will share only in the distribution of stock in the reorganized company with the holders of the existing Common Stock, and will not dilute the recoveries of the Company’s creditors.

The Company believes that the individual defendants are covered, with respect to the claims asserted in the Action, by the Company’s Directors and Officers Liability Insurance Policy issued by National Union Fire Insurance Co. of Pittsburgh, Pa. The policy provides directors and officers liability coverage and corporate securities coverage. It has aggregate limits of $5,000,000 and a self-insured retention for securities claims of $250,000. With respect to the case against the defendants, to the extent permitted by law the Company intends to indemnify the individual defendants to the extent deductibles are paid.

On August 3, 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) informed the Company that it is conducting an informal investigation regarding the restatement of the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended 2000 and 1999 and the first three fiscal quarters of fiscal 2001. The Company has cooperated fully with the SEC and will continue to do so.

The Company is the guarantor of equipment leases for three restaurants that are owned by one of its franchisees, Roadhouse West G.P., two of which are currently closed. In addition, management understands that other parties have also guaranteed these obligations. Roadhouse West G.P. is currently in default of the payment terms of the operating leases. The balance of the remaining lease payments due was approximately $1.0 million as of January 26, 2003. Approximately $0.3 million of these payments were in arrears as of January 26, 2003. The leases are collateralized by the leased equipment and certain leasehold improvements. Roadhouse West G.P. has recently filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. The Company cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings but believes that any potential liability will be mitigated by the factors described above and, accordingly, has provided no reserve for any possible obligations that may arise relating to these proceedings. The United States Trustee’s office has recently filed a motion to convert the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy to Chapter 7 liquidation, citing no feasible reorganization plan is being or will be provided.

OPERATING LEASES AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

The Company is a party to various operating lease agreements relating to the rental of land and buildings and equipment at many of its restaurants. Such agreements range in terms of up to 20 years and generally provide the Company the option to renew for additional periods. The agreements generally also require significant penalties to be paid in the event the lease is terminated prior to its expiration. As of January 26, 2003, total minimum lease payments required under such operating lease agreements for the next twelve months are approximately $8.1 million. The Company is also a party to various agreements relating to services performed at its restaurants. Such agreements are generally for periods of one year or less and none of these

agreements, individually, require payments that would be material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

OTHER

The Company is a party to legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management and based upon review with legal counsel, disposition of these matters will not materially affect the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or business.

The Company plans to open the two Company-owned restaurants under construction or development as of January 26, 2003 near the end of fiscal year 2003. The Company expects that the average cash investment required to open these new restaurants in fiscal year 2003, excluding land and pre-opening costs, will be approximately $0.4 million per restaurant, or $0.8 million in the aggregate. It is expected that this amount will be funded by cash from operations.

(9) NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.” SFAS No. 144 retained substantially all of the requirements of SFAS No. 121 while resolving certain implementation issues. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 144 was not material.

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statement No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections.” Under Statement No. 4, all gains and losses from extinguishments of debt were required to be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of related income tax effect. This Statement eliminates Statement No. 4 and as a result, gains and losses from extinguishment of debt should be classified as extraordinary items only if they meet the criteria in Accounting Principles Board Opinion 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations — Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions.” Additionally, this Statement amends SFAS No. 13, “Accounting for Leases,” such that lease modifications that have economic effects similar to sale-leaseback transactions be accounted for in a similar manner as a sale-leaseback. This Statement is generally effective for financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 145 was not material.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.” This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and supercedes Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including certain costs incurred in a restructuring).” A liability for a cost associated

with an exit or disposal activity shall be recognized and measured initially at its fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred, except for certain qualifying employee termination benefits. This Statement will be effective for exit or disposal activities initiated by the Company after December 31, 2002.

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123” (“SFAS 148”). SFAS 148 amends FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, to provide alternative methods of transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and to require prominent disclosures about the effects on reported net income of an entity’s accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based employee compensation. SFAS 148 also amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosures about those effects in interim financial information. The Company currently accounts for its stock-based compensation awards to employees and directors under the accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and provides the disclosures required by SFAS No. 123. The Company currently intends to continue to account for its stock-based compensation awards to employees and directors under the accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and will adopt the additional disclosure provisions of SFAS 148.

In December 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45 (FIN 45), “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” For a guarantee subject to FASB Interpretation 45, a guarantor is required to:

	•		measure and recognize the fair value of the guarantee at inception (for many guarantees, fair value will be determined using a present value method); and
	•		provide new disclosures regarding the nature of any guarantees, the maximum potential amount of future guarantee payments, the current carrying amount of the guarantee liability, and the nature of any recourse provisions or assets held as collateral that could be liquidated and allow the guarantor to recover all or a portion of its payments in the event guarantee payments are required.

FIN 45 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The Company is currently in compliance with the provisions of the new pronouncement.

(10) NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE (“EPS”)

Basic net earnings per share equals net earnings divided by the weighted average shares outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted net earnings per share includes dilutive common stock equivalents in the weighted average shares outstanding. The reconciliation between the computations is as follows (dollars in thousands except per share data):

No stock options were outstanding during the thirteen weeks ended January 26, 2003. Options to purchase 511,333 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $4.57 per share were outstanding during the thirty-nine weeks ended January 26, 2003 until such options were cancelled pursuant to the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization. These options were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the Company recognized a loss during the thirty-nine weeks, and including such options would result in antidilutive EPS.

Options to purchase 561,365 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $4.72 per share were outstanding during the thirty-nine weeks ended January 27, 2002. These options were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the Company recognized a loss during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks, and including such options would result in antidilutive EPS. Additionally, all outstanding stock options were cancelled under the Confirmed Plan of Reorganization.

In January 2003, a new stock option plan (the “2003 Stock Option Plan”) was approved by the Board of Directors, authorizing 1.5 million shares of common stock to be issued. The 2003 Stock Option Plan is subject to shareholder approval. No options have been granted to date under the 2003 Stock Option Plan.
