Dave & Buster’s, Inc. Achieves Record Setting
Fiscal Year 2011 Adjusted EBITDA of $98.4 million
DALLAS—April 12, 2012—Dave & Buster's, Inc., a leading operator of high volume entertainment/dining complexes, today announced results for its fiscal year and fourth quarter ended January 29, 2012.
Total revenues increased 6.3% to $144 million in the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to $135.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. The year-over-year revenue increase was driven by a $1 million increase in comparable store sales and a net $7.5 million increase in revenues from non-comparable stores and other revenue sources. Across all stores, Food and Beverage revenues increased $2.9 million or 4% and Amusements and Other revenues increased $5.6 million or 8.8% compared to the fourth quarter of 2010.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 7.1% to $29.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 versus $28.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.
Total revenues for the 52-week period increased 3.8% to $541.5 million from $521.5 million for the comparable period last year. This revenue increase was comprised of a 2.2% increase in comparable store sales, and a net $11.6 million increase in revenues from non-comparable stores and other revenue sources. Our positive revenue gains were partially offset by a $2.4 million revenue reduction related to the second quarter 2011 closure of a store in Dallas, Texas. Total Food and Beverage revenues increased $5.1 million or 1.9% and revenues from Amusements and Other increased $14.9 million or 5.9%.
Adjusted EBITDA for the 52-week period increased 14% to $98.4 million versus $86.3 million for the comparable period last year.
"We are extremely pleased with our performance in 2011" said Steve King, Chief Executive Officer. "A return to positive comparable store sales, diligent management of our costs and an outstanding group of new stores combined for our best Adjusted EBITDA year ever."

A reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, is set forth in the attachment to this release.

NOTE
(1) As previously reported by the Company, on June 1, 2010, affiliates of Oak Hill Capital Partners acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of our direct parent, Dave & Buster’s Holdings, Inc. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require operating results for the Company prior to the June 1, 2010 acquisition to be presented as Predecessor’s results in the historical financial statements. Operating results for the Company subsequent to the June 1, 2010 acquisition are presented or referred to as Successor’s results in our historical financial statements. References to the 52 week period ended January 30, 2011 included in this release, relate to the 244 day period ended January 30, 2011 in the Successor period and the 120 day period ended May 31, 2010 in the Predecessor period. References to the 52 week periods ended January 29, 2012 included in this release, relate to the Successor periods. The results for the Successor periods include the impacts of purchase accounting.
(2) The store counts as of the end of both fiscal periods include our location in Nashville, Tennessee, which closed as a result of damages sustained in a flood on May 2, 2010. The store reopened on November 28, 2011. The store count as of January 30, 2011, includes a store in Dallas, Texas, which was permanently closed on May 2, 2011.
(3) EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, is defined as net income (loss) before income tax expense (benefit), interest expense (net) and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, also a non-GAAP measure, is defined as EBITDA plus (gain) loss on asset disposal, share-based compensation expense, pre-opening costs, reimbursement of affiliate expenses, and other non-cash or non-recurring charges. The company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (collectively, “EBITDA – Based Measures”) provide useful information to debt holders regarding the Company’s operating performance and its capacity to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures. The Company believes that the EBITDA – Based Measures are used by many investors, analysts and rating agencies as a measure of performance. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is approximately equal to “Consolidated EBITDA” as defined in our senior secured credit facility and indentures relating to the Company’s senior notes. Neither of the EBITDA – Based Measures is defined by GAAP and neither should be considered in isolation or as an alternative to other financial data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as defined in this release may differ from similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
