Watch the next brainchild of Michael Ansley - Bagger Dave's Burger Tavern, Inc. (BDVB). This company is now on the radar and can buy it!

SAUC was stolen for the selling price. The company is still worth closer to $3.00 a share. It’s a nice return and locks in some gains for those who bought at the bottom. Probably best to get the locations in the control of a better operator to keep stores open and employees with jobs longterm.

Now gotta wait and see if they jump back into BDVB and try to make that one work out.

I can't complain because I had SAUC before it was SAUC and ran from .25 to $3 back in the day. BWW is not what it used to be IMO but I'm getting older now.

IF YOU LIKE THIS Restaurant STOCK Look at what is brewing over at KONAQ... it is a great price and STK steakhouse just bought them and will be keeping all the Kona locations open. The owner of STK bought company out of Bankruptcy for 25million in CASH. Do you think the owner was looking for a platform to go public with his steakhouses to?? Also imagine a KONA Sushi venue set up like the STK steakhouse concept!!! WOW.. THIS could blow up!!

Diversified Restaurant Holdings Reports Third Quarter 2017 Results

SOUTHFIELD, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:SAUC) ("DRH" or the "Company"), the largest franchisee for Buffalo Wild Wings® ("BWW") with 65 stores across five states, today announced results for its third quarter ended September 24, 2017.

Third Quarter and Year-to-date Key Information (from continuing operations)

Revenue for the quarter totaled $39.3 million, down 5.7%
Same-store sales declined 4.4% and are down 2.7% for the year
Net loss was $0.5 million in the quarter; near breakeven for the year-to-date period
Restaurant-level EBITDA(1) was $6.2 million, or 15.9% of sales, and stands at $21.1 million for the year, or 17.1% of sales
Adjusted EBITDA(1) was $4.3 million for the quarter and $14.9 million for the year
Cash generated from operations totaled $3.3 million for the quarter and $9.8 million for the year
(1) See attached table for a reconciliation of GAAP net loss to Restaurant-level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

Total sales during the quarter were reduced by approximately $0.6 million related to Hurricane Irma, and an additional $0.3 million as a result of deferrals recorded related to the Blazin’ Rewards loyalty program.

“While facing multiple headwinds during the quarter, we focused our efforts on operational excellence to increase efficiency and run a leaner organization,” commented David G. Burke, President and CEO. “While cost of sales increased over 200 basis points as a direct result of record high chicken wing prices, we controlled our labor and other operating expenses despite lower sales.”

Mr. Burke added, “We also had some solid wins in the quarter and are making great progress with our productivity initiatives. We continued our ‘BOGO’ traditional wing promotional test in our captive markets, which replaced the half-off promotion with a “buy one, get one” offer limited to smaller order sizes. The test continues to demonstrate improved sales and average check with lower wing costs as a percent of sales. We intend to invest more in revenue-driving initiatives in the fourth quarter in addition to our delivery and loyalty programs. We also expect to benefit from a new corporate promotional campaign that is slated to kick off in the second half of the fourth quarter.”

Restaurant-Level EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus the sum of non-restaurant specific general and administrative expenses, restaurant pre-opening costs, loss on property and equipment disposals, depreciation and amortization, other income and expenses, interest, taxes, and non-recurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus the sum of restaurant pre-opening costs, loss on property and equipment disposals, depreciation and amortization, other income and expenses, interest, taxes, and non-recurring expenses. We are presenting Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not presented in accordance with GAAP, because we believe they provide additional metrics by which to evaluate our operations. When considered together with our GAAP results and the reconciliation to our net income, we believe they provide a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. We use Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA together with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as revenue, income from operations, net income, and cash flows from operations, to assess our historical and prospective operating performance and to enhance the understanding of our core operating performance. Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because: (i) we believe they are useful measures for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses; (ii) we believe investors will find these measures useful in assessing our ability to service or incur indebtedness; and (iii) they are used internally as benchmarks to evaluate our operating performance or compare our performance to that of our competitors.

Additionally, we present Restaurant-Level EBITDA because it excludes the impact of general and administrative expenses and restaurant pre-opening costs, which is non-recurring. The use of Restaurant-Level EBITDA thereby enables us and our investors to compare our operating performance between periods and to compare our operating performance to the performance of our competitors. The measure is also widely used within the restaurant industry to evaluate restaurant level productivity, efficiency, and performance. The use of Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as performance measures permits a comparative assessment of our operating performance relative to our performance based on GAAP results, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. Companies within our industry exhibit significant variations with respect to capital structure and cost of capital (which affect interest expense and tax rates) and differences in book depreciation of property and equipment (which affect relative depreciation expense), including significant differences in the depreciable lives of similar assets among various companies. Our management team believes that Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitate company-to-company comparisons within our industry by eliminating some of the foregoing variations.

Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, income from operations, net cash provided by operating, investing, or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented as indicators of financial performance or liquidity, each as presented in accordance with GAAP. Neither Restaurant-Level EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA should be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and our presentation of Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual items. Our management recognizes that Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical financial measures.

Diversified Restaurant Holdings Reports Second Quarter 2017 Results

SOUTHFIELD, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:SAUC) ("DRH" or the "Company"), the largest franchisee for Buffalo Wild Wings® ("BWW") with 65 stores across five states, today announced results for its second quarter ended June 25, 2017.

Second Quarter Key Information (from continuing operations)

Revenue totaled $39.9 million, down 2.5%
Same-store sales decreased 3.67% for the quarter and are off 1.95% for the year
Restaurant-level EBITDA was $6.6 million, or 16.6% of sales(1)
Adjusted EBITDA totaled $4.6 million, or 11.6% of sales(1)
Net loss for the quarter was $0.3 million, with year-to-date net income of $0.5 million
Cash generated from operations was $2.1 million for the quarter and $6.5 million year-to-date
Total debt of $118.1 million is down $3.0 million for the year
(1) See attached table for a reconciliation of GAAP net income (loss) to Restaurant-level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

“With a focus on productivity and prudent ROI-based spending decisions, we completed the bulk of our capital projects for the year and continued to generate positive free cash flow, which was used to pay down debt,” commented David G. Burke, President and CEO. “We also maintained efficient use of labor, and have decreased overhead expenses as we are on track to achieve at least $1 million in run rate savings in G&A. Additionally, we’ve implemented a number of productivity initiatives in an effort to combat inflationary input costs. These actions are targeting $3 to $4 million in annualized savings.”

Mr. Burke added, “Delivery service is now in place at 38 of our locations and continues to show strong growth without cannibalizing our carry-out business. The Half-Price Wing Tuesdays® promotion has been beneficial in driving strong traffic to our restaurants, and our ‘BOGO’ test, which replaced the half-off message with a buy one, get one offer limited to smaller order sizes, is showing promising early results. We believe actions such as these position us well for when macro headwinds subside.

“Our sales for the quarter were negatively impacted by unfavorable sports outcomes in each of our core markets, with 60 key NHL and NBA play-off games last year dropping an unprecedented level to only 20 this year. Coupled with the Easter holiday closure moving to the second quarter this year and two major road construction projects, the sales headwinds were difficult to overcome. However, adjusted for these items, we did see positive traffic, and sales momentum increased later in the quarter. We’re also contending with margin pressure driven by record high traditional chicken wing prices, which added 169 basis points to our cost of sales for the quarter,” concluded Mr. Burke.

The same-store sales decrease of 367 basis points was driven by 115 basis points from the Easter holiday shift, approximately 200 basis points from the unfavorable sports outcomes noted above and 60 basis points from significant traffic-disrupting construction in two of our locations. Geographically, the Midwest continued to perform relatively well, while the Florida market remains contracted, particularly in the coastal segments of the franchise region.

Restaurant-Level EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus the sum of non-restaurant specific general and administrative expenses, restaurant pre-opening costs, loss on property and equipment disposals, depreciation and amortization, other income and expenses, interest, taxes, and non-recurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus the sum of restaurant pre-opening costs, loss on property and equipment disposals, depreciation and amortization, other income and expenses, interest, taxes, and non-recurring expenses. We are presenting Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not presented in accordance with GAAP, because we believe they provide additional metrics by which to evaluate our operations. When considered together with our GAAP results and the reconciliation to our net income, we believe they provide a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. We use Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA together with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as revenue, income from operations, net income, and cash flows from operations, to assess our historical and prospective operating performance and to enhance the understanding of our core operating performance. Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because: (i) we believe they are useful measures for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses; (ii) we believe investors will find these measures useful in assessing our ability to service or incur indebtedness; and (iii) they are used internally as benchmarks to evaluate our operating performance or compare our performance to that of our competitors.

Additionally, we present Restaurant-Level EBITDA because it excludes the impact of general and administrative expenses and restaurant pre-opening costs, which is non-recurring. The use of Restaurant-Level EBITDA thereby enables us and our investors to compare our operating performance between periods and to compare our operating performance to the performance of our competitors. The measure is also widely used within the restaurant industry to evaluate restaurant level productivity, efficiency, and performance. The use of Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as performance measures permits a comparative assessment of our operating performance relative to our performance based on GAAP results, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. Companies within our industry exhibit significant variations with respect to capital structure and cost of capital (which affect interest expense and tax rates) and differences in book depreciation of property and equipment (which affect relative depreciation expense), including significant differences in the depreciable lives of similar assets among various companies. Our management team believes that Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitate company-to-company comparisons within our industry by eliminating some of the foregoing variations.

Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, income from operations, net cash provided by operating, investing, or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented as indicators of financial performance or liquidity, each as presented in accordance with GAAP. Neither Restaurant-Level EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA should be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and our presentation of Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual items. Our management recognizes that Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical financial measures.

Diversified Restaurant Holdings Opens Newest Location in South Tampa

Restaurant is Company’s 18th location in Florida

June 9, 2017

SOUTHFIELD, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:SAUC) ("DRH" or the "Company"), the largest franchisee for Buffalo Wild Wings® ("BWW") with 64 stores across five states, announced that it will unveil its newest Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant in South Tampa (4015 S. Dale Mabry Hwy.) at 11 a.m. ET on Monday, June 12, 2017.

The first 100 guests through the door for the restaurant’s Grand Opening will receive free wings for a year.

The 5,050-square-foot space will feature the STADIA format, an open-space, stadium-like design for easier game viewing and socializing, and seating for more than 200 inside and out.

“This design goes beyond meeting the needs of our guests, who like to socialize, gather with friends and watch sporting events. It offers a very high–energy stadium experience,” said David G. Burke, CEO of Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc. “The South Tampa location is dynamic, and we expect our new restaurant to quickly become the place for lunch, after-work drinks with friends, and also a gathering spot on the weekends to catch the big game.”

Providing mouth-watering wings, a great beer selection that includes 30 beers on tap, and ultimate sports viewing to local residents on big screens and wall-to-wall HDTVs, Buffalo Wild Wings is the destination for wing fanatics and sports fans alike.

While the restaurant’s boldly flavored menu includes traditional and boneless wings, specialty burgers and sandwiches, finger foods, wraps, salads and Naked Tenders®, the main attraction continues to be Buffalo, NY-style chicken wings, as well as 16 signature sauces and five seasonings. A variety of limited-time special offerings keep the menu new and fresh.

Customers also can choose from a wide variety of craft, domestic, import, and specialty draft and bottle beers, served by bartenders who are trained in the time-honored art of ale. Buffalo Wild Wing’s beer is always poured and garnished correctly for maximum flavor and freshness.

The restaurant will hold two signature events weekly: Wing Tuesdays® and Boneless Thursdays®. Both feature traditional or boneless wings at a special price.

Bagger Dave was supposed to be a QX (top tier) but actually went to the Pinks (lowest tier). Now that they have a ticker I expect them to dilute as quickly as possible to get some $$ banked before it declines til proven a success. Location Location Location is the paramount consideration when placing a joint like BD, any competition can kill it.

SAUC should be a $5 - $6 stock if football comes back from their decline, not sure it will as the NFL is no longer about football but rather social justice and whiney millionaire pretty boys. They need to go back to playing football and forget about all the BS rules preventing real competition.

That's probably a fair number. I've always been skeptical of the Bagger Dave concept. You have to really differentiate yourself in the burger market to stand out. I've been to a couple different BD's over the last couple years and the burger is good... but it's not outstanding. There is nothing there that screams "I have to come back for that burger!!!". Especially at the price point they sell at. I hope they are successful but I just don't see it long term without some serious changes.

As of now my account looks better after the blood bath that SAUC took this last week, so we shall see.... I was really starting to enjoy that ride. I was actually ahead on that stock for the first time in years. I started buying at around $8.50 per share and rode it all the way down and kept accumulating. I'm averaged in around $3.84.

Diversified Restaurant Holdings Reports First Quarter 2017 Results

SOUTHFIELD, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Diversified Restaurant Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:SAUC) ("DRH" or the "Company"), the largest franchisee for Buffalo Wild Wings® ("BWW") with 64 stores across five states, today announced results for its first quarter ended March 26, 2017.

(1) See attached table for a reconciliation of GAAP net income to Restaurant-level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

“Our first quarter results were encouraging and not only validate our decision to focus solely on the BWW business, but demonstrate the strength of the franchise in the face of continued market headwinds,” commented David G. Burke, President and CEO. “Our promotional efforts, such as Half-Price Wing Tuesdays® helped to improve traffic while our delivery service continues to provide incremental sales. The Blazin' Rewards® loyalty program, which has now been rolled out to all 64 locations, continues to attract customers and drive higher tickets for those customers that actively participate in the program.”

There were two favorable calendar shifts in the quarter, Christmas and Easter, which positively impacted same-store sales 170 basis points.

Mr. Burke added, “Our core Midwest markets are performing quite well, while our Florida market remains challenged, particularly in the southern end of our franchise area. And, while restaurant-level margins were pressured during the period as a result of all-time high wing costs and promotional activity, we maintained our disciplined approach to managing costs, produced high operating margins and continue to achieve industry-leading restaurant performance.”

Restaurant–Level EBITDA $ 8,424,580 $ 9,294,225
Restaurant–Level EBITDA margin (%) 19.0 % 21.5 %

Restaurant-Level EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus the sum of non-restaurant specific general and administrative expenses, restaurant pre-opening costs, loss on property and equipment disposals, depreciation and amortization, other income and expenses, interest, taxes, and non-recurring expenses related to acquisitions, equity offerings or other non-recurring expenses. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) plus the sum of restaurant pre-opening costs, loss on property and equipment disposals, depreciation and amortization, other income and expenses, interest, taxes, and non-recurring expenses. We are presenting Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not presented in accordance with GAAP, because we believe they provide an additional metric by which to evaluate our operations. When considered together with our GAAP results and the reconciliation to our net income, we believe they provide a more complete understanding of our business than could be obtained absent this disclosure. We use Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA together with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as revenue, income from operations, net income, and cash flows from operations, to assess our historical and prospective operating performance and to enhance the understanding of our core operating performance. Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are presented because: (i) we believe they are useful measures for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses; (ii) we believe investors will find these measures useful in assessing our ability to service or incur indebtedness; and (iii) they are used internally as benchmarks to evaluate our operating performance or compare our performance to that of our competitors.

Additionally, we present Restaurant-Level EBITDA because it excludes the impact of general and administrative expenses and restaurant pre-opening costs, which is non-recurring. The use of Restaurant-Level EBITDA thereby enables us and our investors to compare our operating performance between periods and to compare our operating performance to the performance of our competitors. The measure is also widely used within the restaurant industry to evaluate restaurant level productivity, efficiency, and performance. The use of Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as performance measures permits a comparative assessment of our operating performance relative to our performance based on GAAP results, while isolating the effects of some items that vary from period to period without any correlation to core operating performance or that vary widely among similar companies. Companies within our industry exhibit significant variations with respect to capital structure and cost of capital (which affect interest expense and tax rates) and differences in book depreciation of property and equipment (which affect relative depreciation expense), including significant differences in the depreciable lives of similar assets among various companies. Our management team believes that Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitate company-to-company comparisons within our industry by eliminating some of the foregoing variations.

Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, income from operations, net cash provided by operating, investing, or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented as indicators of financial performance or liquidity, each as presented in accordance with GAAP. Neither Restaurant-Level EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA should be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and our presentation of Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual items. Our management recognizes that Restaurant-Level EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical financial measures.

I'm with ya. I'm assuming the suit has to be related to the BAGR shares.

On a positive note, SAUC is soaring!

I haven't looked into it yet. The stock is continuing to rise after the fishing for class members PR.

I'm pretty pissed off that they haven't done squat to get Bagger listed as they said they would. It's a giant gaping hole in my account.

It seems SAUC really just wanted to get them off their books.

I too wonder if BAGR will ever trade or if it was just an easy way to kill them without having to declare the loses.

It doesn't take this long unless there is a "problem" with their paperwork
