Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On August 15, 2011, Real Mex Restaurants, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) announced results for the second quarter of 2011 and filed the Company’s 10-Q for the quarter ended June 26, 2011 (the “10-Q”). The information furnished in this Current Report on Form 8-K provides supplemental information regarding the Company’s financial condition and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto and the other information included in the 10-Q. The information set forth below with respect to interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full year results. Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results may vary materially from these estimates and assumptions.
Comparable store sales were virtually flat at (0.2%) compared to the same quarter of 2010, representing an improvement of 140 basis points from the first quarter of 2011. Operating income, excluding certain non-cash charges related to goodwill and intangible assets, was $3.0 million, compared to $6.8 million in the second quarter of 2010. Net loss, excluding the non-cash charges, was $4.1 million compared to $0.8 million in the prior year quarter. The Company’s EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and consolidated cash flow for the six months ended June 26, 2011 were $14.8 million, $15.6 million and $17.4 million, respectively, and EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and consolidated cash flow for the twelve months ended June 26, 2011 were $24.3 million, $26.0 million and $28.3 million, respectively. The following table reconciles our net loss reported according to GAAP to these non-GAAP measures (in thousands):

*   As a result of a change in control of our parent company as of June 28, 2010, we were required to revalue our balance sheet and apply purchase accounting treatment in the third quarter of 2010. Under GAAP, we were required to break out our fiscal 2010 results between the predecessor six months ended June 27, 2010 and the successor six months ended December 26, 2010. For purposes of our reconciliation above, we refer to the combined predecessor and successor periods for each relevant period above. For additional details and a breakdown of the predecessor and successor results, please refer to the 10-Q.

 

 


 

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company has provided certain non-GAAP financial information, which is EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and consolidated cash flow. EBITDA is provided because management believes it is useful to investors in evaluating our ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and meet working capital requirements. Adjusted EBITDA and consolidated cash flow are provided as they are key covenant measures in our indenture to our senior secured notes, as defined therein. This information should be considered in addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered a substitute for the GAAP results. The table above reconciles our net loss as reported under GAAP with those financial measures as adjusted by the items detailed above.
The information under Item 2.02 in this Current Report is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall this information be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
