MINNEAPOLIS, February 12, 2014 – Famous Dave’s of America, Inc. (NASDAQ: DAVE) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ending December 29, 2013.
Highlights for the fourth quarter of 2013 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2012:

| • | Comparable sales for Company-owned restaurants open 24 months or more decreased 2.6%, compared to a decrease of 6.0% for the comparable quarter in the prior year. |
| • | Franchise royalty revenue of $4.0 million was slightly favorable to the prior year, reflecting revenue contribution from a net five new franchise restaurants, partially offset by a comparable sales decrease of 1.1%. |

| • | Net income was $1.9 million, reflecting significant operational improvements. This compared to $750,000 for the fourth quarter of 2012. |
| • | Diluted net income per share was $0.25 compared to $0.10 in the fourth quarter of 2012. Earnings for the fourth quarter of 2012 were favorably impacted by a tax rate adjustment for employment tax credits equal to approximately $0.03 per diluted share. |
| • | Diluted adjusted net income per share was $0.25 compared to $0.07 for the fourth quarter of 2012. |
| • | Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $4.6 million compared to $2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2012. |
Highlights for fiscal 2013 as compared to fiscal 2012:
| • | Revenue of $155.4 million increased approximately $444,000, reflecting an increase in restaurant sales, partially offset by a decline in franchise royalty revenue and fees. |
| • | Comparable sales for Company-owned restaurants open 24 months or more were 0.2% positive compared to a decrease of 1.8% in 2012. |

| • | Cash flows provided by operations were $15.6 million for fiscal 2013, compared to $9.6 million for fiscal 2012. |
| • | Net income was $4.8 million compared to $4.4 million, reflecting improvements in restaurant level operations and lower G&A, partially offset by $1.2 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the non-cash asset impairment of a Maryland restaurant, a lease restructuring at a Virginia restaurant and residual closing costs for a Maryland restaurant that was relocated during 2013. |
| • | Diluted net income per share was $0.62 compared to $0.57, for 2012. |
| • | Diluted adjusted net income per share was $0.74, compared to $0.54 for fiscal 2012, reflecting the year-over-year impact from the non-cash charges and the favorable tax rate adjustment for employment tax credits for 2012. |

Dean Riesen, Chairman of the Company’s board of directors, commented, “While we were disappointed with our sales performance this quarter, we made great strides on a number of initiatives this year, including improved unit level economics and reduced overhead that should benefit us for the long-term.”
Development
Famous Dave’s opened 2 franchise-operated restaurants in Williston, North Dakota and Oxnard, California as well as 1 company-owned restaurant in Timonium, Maryland during the fourth quarter. Famous Dave’s ended the quarter with 194 restaurants, including 54 company-owned restaurants and 140 franchise-operated restaurants, located in 34 states, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and 1 Canadian province.
The company expects to open 1 company-owned restaurant, as well as 6 franchise-operated restaurants during fiscal 2014.
Outlook
“Unfortunately, as a result of severe weather patterns impacting essentially all of our markets, sales to date have been softer than expected,” said Riesen. “We have a number of strategies going into BBQ season however, that should prove effective towards building sales.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement its financial statements, Famous Dave’s of America, Inc. also provides investors with adjusted net income per share and adjusted EBITDA which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. Famous Dave’s management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare the Company’s performance to that of prior periods for trend analysis and planning purposes.
Adjusted net income per share consists of net income plus non-cash items, such as, asset impairment and estimated lease termination and other closing costs and net loss on disposal of equipment divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period presented. Famous Dave’s of America, Inc. believes adjusted net income per share is useful to an investor because it is widely used to measure a company’s operating performance.

EBITDA consists of income from operations plus depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA plus non-cash items, such as, asset impairment and estimated lease termination and other closing costs and net loss on disposal of equipment. Famous Dave’s uses Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of operating performance because it assists the Company in comparing performance on a consistent basis, as it removes from operating results the impact of non-cash events. The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to an investor in evaluating the company’s operating performance because it is widely used to measure a Company’s operating performance without the impact of items such as depreciation and amortization, which can vary depending upon accounting methods and the book value of assets, and to present a meaningful measure of corporate performance exclusive of the impact of non-cash events and the method by which assets were acquired.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recorded in the company’s financial statements and are subject to inherent limitations. Famous Dave’s of America, Inc. urges investors to review the reconciliation of its non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures that are included in this press release. The tables appearing at the end of this release provide reconciliations of net income to adjusted net income per share and Adjusted EBITDA.
