Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 Operating Results

Revenues of $14.1 million and $44.3 million for the third quarter and year to date fiscal 2017 were 7.7% and 1.7% lower, respectively, than the same periods of the prior year.  For the three and nine months ended March 26, 2017, the Company reported a net loss of $2.0 million and $11.4 million, respectively, compared to a loss of $1.2 million and $6.6 million for the comparable periods of the prior year.  On a fully diluted basis, the loss was $0.18 per share and $1.07 per share for the third quarter and year to date fiscal 2017, compared to a loss of $0.12 per share and $0.64 per share for the same periods of the prior year.  The increased loss for the three month period ended March 26, 2017 was primarily the result of a $0.3 million loss on sale of assets in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 related to equipment disposals at closed stores, as well as executive recruiting fees.  The year to date increase in net loss from prior year was primarily due to increased impairments and other lease charges of $5.2 million and $1.0 million of losses from the sale of assets.  In addition, the Company continued to provide a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.  Adjusted EBITDA declined $0.7 million and $2.4 million for the three and nine month periods ended March 26, 2017, to $(1.0) million and $(2.3) million, respectively.  The decline in Adjusted EBITDA was driven by general and administrative expense and a decrease in other income from prior year, as well as decreased average unit volumes at Company Pie Five locations.

Pie Five system-wide retail sales increased 0.6% for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 when compared to the same period in the prior year driven by a 14.3% increase in average units open, while system-wide average weekly sales decreased by 12.3%, year over year.  Comparable store retail sales decreased by 15.8% for the most recent fiscal quarter compared to the same period in the prior year.  Year to date, Pie Five system-wide retail sales increased 13.8% compared to the prior year driven by a 30.6% increase in average units open, while system-wide average weekly sales declined 9.7% year over year.  Pie Five comparable store retail sales decreased 16.0% during the first nine months of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of the prior year.  The Company continues to believe that increased competition within the fast-casual segment and general industry softness contributed to weakened trends within the Pie Five system.

Pizza Inn total domestic retail sales increased 2.9% and 0.5% for the three and nine months ended March 26, 2017 compared to the same periods of the prior year.  Pizza Inn domestic comparable store retail sales increased 0.1% and decreased 0.1% for the three and nine months ended March 26, 2017 compared to the same periods of the prior year.

"After a year of challenging sales performance, we are evaluating various elements of the concept from both a service and product standpoint that we believe will ultimately better service the wants of our customers," said Crane.

Development Review

In the third quarter of fiscal 2017, five new franchised Pie Five restaurants were opened, while nine franchised and nine Company restaurants were closed, bringing the quarter-end total unit count to 86 restaurants.  

"We continue to see opportunities for traditional and non-traditional development," said Crane.  "Our throughput makes Pie Five a great option for airports. We just opened our second airport location at BWI Airport."

Rights Offering Completed

During the third quarter of fiscal 2017, RAVE completed a rights offering of its 4% Convertible Senior Notes due 2022, resulting in net proceeds of $2.9 million.  Pursuant to the rights offering, existing RAVE shareholders had the opportunity to purchase their proportionate share of the convertible notes at the par value of $100 per note.  The notes are convertible into shares of RAVE common stock at $2.00 per share.
