TOTAL ENTERTAINMENT RESTAURANT CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation and Description of Business
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission. The information furnished herein reflects all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are,
in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating results
for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally presented in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements in its 2001 Form
10-K. The results of the twelve weeks ended September 3, 2002 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending
December 31, 2002.
2. Stock Options
During the twelve week period ended September 3, 2002, options to purchase
22,981 shares were exercised at a weighted-average exercise price of $2.99 per
share pursuant to its 1997 Incentive and Nonqualified Stock Option Plan and
options to purchase 35,000 shares were exercised at a weighted-average exercise
price of $3.51 per share pursuant to its 1997 Directors Stock Option Plan.
Options for 60,000 shares originally awarded pursuant to the 1997 Directors
Stock Option Plan have been rescinded and declared void by the Company's Board
of Directors as a result of a mistake of fact as to the proper accounting for
such options and other factors.
3. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average
number of shares actually outstanding. The number of weighted averaged shares
outstanding for the twelve week periods ended September 3, 2002 and September 4,
2001 were 9,573,356 and 8,666,111, respectively; the number of weighted average
shares outstanding for the thirty-six week periods ended September 3, 2002 and
September 4, 2001 were 9,007,756 and 8,671,697, respectively.
Diluted earnings per share are computed similar to basic earnings per share
except that the weighted average shares outsanding are increased to include
additional shares for the assumed exercise of stock options, if dilutive. The
number of additional shares is calculated by assuming that outstanding stock
options were exercised and the proceeds from such exercises were used to acquire
common shares at an average price during the reporting period. The number of
shares resulting from this computation of diluted earnings per share for the
twelve weeks ended September 3, 2002 and September 4, 2001 were 10,140,017 and
8,701,496, respectively, and for the thirty-six week periods ended September 3,
2002 and September 4, 2001 were 9,500,124 and 8,696,688, respectively.

4. Goodwill
The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", effective
December 26, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires that an intangible asset that is
acquired shall be initially recognized and measured based on its fair value.
SFAS No. 142 also provides that goodwill shall not be amortized, but shall be
tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate
potential impairment through a comparison of fair value to its carrying value.
No impairment losses were recorded upon the initial adoption of SFAS No. 142.
The effect of the adoption of SFAS No. 142 on net income and earnings per
share is as follows:

5. New Accounting Standards
In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS No. 144 addresses significant issues
relating to the implementation of SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of, and develops a
single accounting method under which long-lived assets that are to be disposed
of by sale are measured at the lower of book value or fair value less cost to
sell. Additionally, SFAS No. 144 expands the scope of discontinued operations to
include all components of an entity with operations that (1) can be
distinguished from the rest of the entity and (2) will be eliminated from the
ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. The Company adopted
the provisions of SFAS No. 144 effective December 26, 2001. The Company closed
and abandoned one restaurant on March 31, 2002. Pursuant to SFAS No. 144, each
restaurant is a component of the entity, and the operations of the closed
restaurant can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and will be
eliminated from the ongoing operations of
- 7 -
the Company. Accordingly, the operations of the closed restaurant, net of
applicable income tax effect, have been presented as discontinued operations and
prior period statements of income have been reclassified accordingly.
6. Legal Proceedings
Certain former employees have filed a complaint on their own behalf and on
the behalf of similarly situated persons alleging the Company violated certain
provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act. It is not possible at this time for
the Company to evaluate the merits of this claim, the Company's likelihood of
success or the range of potential loss.
7. Public Offering
On July 24, 2002 the Company issued 1,350,000 shares of stock at $10.50 per
share in a public offering of its stock. Net proceeds from the offering were
$12.9 million, including underwriters' fees and other related public offering
costs.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Anaysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
General
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
As of September 3, 2002, the Company owned and operated 51 restaurants
under the Fox and Hound Smokehouse & Tavern and Fox and Hound English Pub &
Grille ("Fox and Hound"), Bailey's Smokehouse & Tavern, Bailey's Sports Grille
and Bailey's Pub & Grille ("Bailey's") brand names. The Company's restaurants
offer a broad menu of mid-priced appetizers, entrees, and desserts served in
generous portions. In addition, each location features a full-service bar and
offers a wide selection of major domestic, imported and specialty beers. Each
restaurant emphasizes a high energy environment with multiple billiard tables
and satellite and cable coverage of a variety of sporting events and music
videos. In addition to our food, the Company believes that customers are
attracted to the elegant yet comfortable atmosphere of polished brass,
embroidered chairs and booths, hunter green and burgundy walls, and etched
glass. The Fox and Hound and Bailey's restaurants share identical design and
operational principles and menus. As of September 3, 2002, the Company owned and
operated 36 Fox and Hound restaurants and 15 Bailey's restaurants located in
Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas,
Louisiana, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. As of September 4, 2001, the
Company owned and operated 27 Fox and Hound restaurants and 14 Bailey's
restaurants.
The components of the Company's net sales are food and non-alcoholic
beverages, alcoholic beverages, and entertainment and other (principally
billiard table rental fees). For the twelve weeks ended September 3, 2002, food
and non-alcoholic beverages were 33.5% of total sales, alcoholic beverages were
57.7% of total sales and entertainment and other were 8.8% of total
- 8 -
sales. For the twelve weeks ended September 4, 2001, food and non-alcoholic
beverages were 31.7% of total sales, alcoholic beverages were 58.5% of total
sales and entertainment and other were 9.8% of total sales.
The components of the Company's cost of sales primarily include direct
costs of food, non-alcoholic beverages and alcoholic beverages. These costs are
generally variable and will fluctuate with changes in sales volume and sales
mix.
Components of restaurant operating expenses include operating payroll and
fringe benefits, and occupancy, maintenance and utilities. All but one of the
Company's locations are leased and provide for a minimum annual rent, with some
leases calling for additional rent based on sales volume at the particular
location in excess of specified minimum sales levels.
Depreciation and amortization costs primarily include depreciation and
amortization of capital expenditures for restaurants.
Preopening costs include labor costs, costs of hiring and training
personnel and certain other costs relating to opening new restaurants.
General and administrative expenses include all corporate and
administrative functions that support existing operations and provide an
infrastructure to support future growth. Management, supervisory and staff
salaries, employee benefits, travel, information systems, training, rent and
office supplies as well as accounting services fees are major items of costs in
this category.
In calculating comparable restaurant sales, the Company includes a
restaurant in the comparable restaurant base after it has been in operation for
18 full months. As of September 3, 2002, there were 38 restaurants in the
comparable restaurant base. Annualized average weekly sales are computed by
dividing net sales during the period by the number of store operating weeks and
multiplying the result by 52. These calculations include sales and store
operating weeks for the one unit included in discontinued operations.
Results of Operations
The following table sets forth for the periods indicated (i) the
percentages which certain items included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement
of Operations bear to net sales, and (ii) other selected operating data. The
Company operates on a 52 or 53 week fiscal year ending the last Tuesday in
December. Fiscal year 2001 consisted of 52 weeks and fiscal year 2002 consists
of 53 weeks. Fiscal quarters consist of three accounting periods of 12 weeks
each and a final period of 16 or 17 weeks.

Twelve Weeks Ended September 3, 2002 Compared to Twelve Weeks Ended
September 4, 2001
Net sales increased $6,616,000 (46.0%) for the twelve weeks ended September
3, 2002 to $21,012,000 from $14,396,000 for the twelve weeks ended September 4,
2001. This increase was due to a 27.9% increase in store weeks (600 versus 469)
as a result of eleven restaurants opened since September 4, 2001 and a 14.3%
increase in annualized average weekly sales for units open during the entire
period primarily as a result of increased customer traffic. Comparable
restaurant sales increased 4.4% for the quarter ended September 3, 2002.
Costs of sales increased $1,636,000 (42.0%) for the twelve weeks ended
September 3, 2002 to $5,533,000 from $3,897,000 in the twelve weeks ended
September 4, 2001, and decreased as a percentage of sales to 26.3% from 27.1%.
This decrease as a percentage of sales is principally attributable to lower food
costs associated with new barbecue menu items and price increases on selected
menu items implemented in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2001.
Restaurant operating expenses increased $4,048,000 (52.1%) for the twelve
weeks ended September 3, 2002 to $11,825,000 from $7,777,000 in the twelve weeks
ended September 4, 2001, and increased as a percentage of net sales to 56.3%
from 54.0%. This increase as a percentage of sales is principally attributable
to higher hourly labor costs on new units during the initial months after
opening, increases in group insurance costs and workers compensation premiums
and higher advertising costs as a result of radio advertising in several
markets.
Depreciation and amortization increased $330,000 (38.5%) for the twelve
weeks ended September 3, 2002 to $1,188,000 from $858,000 in the twelve weeks
ended September 4, 2001, and decreased as a percentage of sales to 5.6% from
6.0%. This increase in expense is due to additional depreciation on eleven
restaurants opened net of one restaurant closed since September 4, 2001.
Preopening costs increased $171,000 (57.2%) for the twelve weeks ended
September 3, 2002 to $470,000 from $299,000 in the twelve weeks ended September
4, 2001. This increase is attributable to the costs incurred for three units
that opened during the twelve weeks ended September 3, 2002 and partial
preopening expenses for three restaurants which have yet to open. One restaurant
were opened in the twelve weeks ended September 4, 2001.

General and administrative expenses increased $272,000 (30.3%) for the
twelve weeks ended September 3, 2002 to $1,169,000 from $897,000 in the twelve
weeks ended September 4, 2001, due to an increase in corporate infrastucture to
support the Company's expansion. General and administrative expenses decreased
as a percentage of net sales to 5.6% from 6.2%, due to the leverage of
infrastructure expense against a higher sales volume.
Loss on disposal of assets was $39,000 for the twelve weeks ended September
4, 2001. The losses reflect the disposal of certain video games.
Interest expense was $62,000 for the twelve weeks ended September 3, 2002
and $187,000 for the twelve weeks ended September 4, 2001. This decrease is due
to both a lower interest rate and lower average balance applicable to the
revolving note payable in the current fiscal year compared with the prior fiscal
year.
The effective income tax rate was 37.8% for the twelve weeks ended
September 3, 2002 and 34.1% for the twelve weeks ended September 4, 2001.
Thirty-six Weeks Ended September 3, 2002 Compared to Thirty-six Weeks Ended
September 4, 2001
Net sales increased $19,148,000 (42.5%) for the 36 weeks ended September 3,
2002 to $64,245,000 from $45,097,000 for the 36 weeks ended September 4, 2001.
This increase was due to an 23.3% increase in store weeks (1,692 versus 1,372)
as a result of eleven restaurants opened since September 4, 2001 and a 15.4%
increase in annualized average weekly sales for units open during the entire
period primarily as a result of increased customer traffic. Comparable
restaurant sales increased 8.1% for the 36 weeks ended September 3, 2002.
Costs of sales increased $4,607,000 (37.6%) for the 36 weeks ended
September 3, 2002 to $16,861,000 from $12,254,000 in the 36 weeks ended
September 4, 2001, and decreased as a percentage of sales to 26.2% from 27.2%.
This decrease as a percentage of sales is principally attributable to lower food
costs associated with new barbecue menu items and price increases on selected
menu items implemented in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2001.
Restaurant operating expenses increased $10,279,000 (44.3%) for the 36
weeks ended September 3, 2002 to $33,498,000 from $23,218,000 in the 36 weeks
ended September 4, 2001, and increased as a percentage of net sales to 52.1%
from 51.5%. This increase as a percentage of sales is principally attributable
to higher hourly labor costs on new units during the initial months after
opening, increases in group insurance costs and workers compensation premiums
and higher advertising costs as a result of radio advertising in several
markets, offset by leveraging fixed expenses against a higher sales volume.
Depreciation and amortization increased $769,000 (31.0%) for the 36 weeks
ended September 3, 2002 to $3,252,000 from $2,483,000 in the 36 weeks ended
September 4, 2001, and decreased as a percentage of sales to 5.0% from 5.5%.
This increase in expense is due to additional depreciation on eleven restaurants
opened net of one restaurant closed since September 4, 2001.
Preopening costs increased $653,000 (97.6%) for the 36 weeks ended
September 3, 2002 to $1,322,000 from $669,000 in the 36 weeks ended September 4,
2001. This increase is attributable to the costs incurred for nine units that
opened during the 36 weeks ended September 3, 2002 and partial preopening
expenses for three restaurants which have yet to open. Three restaurants were
opened in the 36 weeks ended September 4, 2001.

General and administrative expenses increased $820,000 (30.7%) for the 36
weeks ended September 3, 2002 to $3,495,000 from $2,675,000 in the 36 weeks
ended September 4, 2001, due to an increase in corporate infrastucture to
support the Company's expansion. General and administrative expenses decreased
as a percentage of net sales to 5.4% from 5.9%, due to the leverage of
infrastructure expense against a higher sales volume.
Loss on disposal of assets was $18,000 for the 36 weeks ended September 3,
2002 and $91,000 for the 36 weeks ended September 4, 2001. The losses reflect
the disposal of certain video games.
Interest expense was $287,000 for the 36 weeks ended September 3, 2002 and
$665,000 for the 36 weeks ended September 4, 2001. This decrease is due to both
a lower interest rate and lower average balance applicable to the revolving note
payable in the current fiscal year compared with the prior fiscal year.
The effective income tax rate was 36.8% for the 36 weeks ended September 3,
2002 and 36.1% for the 36 weeks ended September 4, 2001.
Quarterly Fluctuations, Seasonality and Inflation
The timing of new unit openings will result in significant fluctuations in
quarterly results. The Company expects seasonality to be a factor in the results
of its business in the future due to expected lower second and third quarter
revenues due to the summer season. The primary inflationary factors affecting
the Company's operations include food, liquor and labor costs. A large number of
the Company's restaurant personnel are tipped employees who are paid at the
federal subminimum wage level; therefore, future subminimum wage changes will
have a significant effect on labor costs. As costs of food and labor have
increased, the Company has historically been able to offset these increases
through economies of scale, improved operating procedures and menu price
changes; however, short-term fluctuations in raw product pricing may have an
impact on the Company's costs of food. To date, inflation has not had a material
impact on operating margins.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As is customary in the restaurant industry, the Company operates with
negative working capital. Negative working capital increased $545,000 to
$5,705,000 as of September 3, 2002 from $5,160,000 as of December 25, 2001. This
increase is attributable primarily to the excess of cost of purchases of
property and equipment in excess of working capital provided by operations, net
proceeds from the line of credit and net proceeds from the sale of stock. Cash
decreased $318,000 at September 3, 2002 compared to the balance at December 25,
2001. The Company does not have significant receivables or inventory and
receives trade credit based upon negotiated terms in purchasing food and
supplies. Because funds available from cash sales are not needed immediately to
pay for food and supplies, or to finance inventory, they may be considered as a
source of financing for noncurrent capital expenditures.
On September 1, 1998 the Company entered into a loan agreement with Intrust
Bank, N.A. (the "Line of Credit") which provides for a line of credit of
$20,000,000 subject to certain limitations based on earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization of the past fifty-two weeks and the amount
of capital lease obligations on personal property. The Line of Credit is secured
by substantially all of the Company's assets. The Line of Credit requires
monthly payments of interest only until November 1, 2003, at which time equal
monthly
- 12 -
installments of principal and interest are required as necessary to fully
amortize the outstanding indebtedness plus future interest over a period of four
years. Interest is accrued at 1/2% below the prime rate as published in The Wall
Street Journal. Proceeds from the Line of Credit are being used for restaurant
development. As of September 3, 2002 the Company had borrowed $835,000 under the
Line of Credit. The Company is in compliance with all debt covenants.
Cash flows from operations were $7,396,000 in the 36 weeks ended September
3, 2002 compared to $2,935,000 in the 36 weeks ended September 4, 2001.
Purchases of property and equipment were $12,951,000 in the 36 weeks ended
September 3, 2002 compared to $3,706,000 in the 36 weeks ended September 4,
2001. Net repayments of the revolving note payable to bank was $9,515,000 for
the 36 week period ending September 3, 2002 compared to net proceeds of $985,000
for the 36 weeks ending September 4, 2001. At September 3, 2002, the Company had
$1,028,000 in cash and cash equivalents.
The Company intends to open twelve new locations in fiscal year 2002 and
ten to twelve new locations in fiscal year 2003. At September 3, 2002, ten units
had been opened in fiscal 2002, four units were under construction and an
additional three leases had been executed. The Company is currently evaluating
locations in markets familiar to its management team. However, the number of
locations actually opened and the timing thereof may vary depending upon the
ability of the Company to locate suitable sites and negotiate favorable leases.
The Company expects to expend approximately $14.0 to $18.0 million to open new
locations over the next twelve months.
The Company believes the funds available from the Facility and its cash
flow from operations will be sufficient to satisfy its working capital and
capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. There can
be no assurance, however, that changes in the Company's operating plans, the
acceleration or modification of the Company's expansion plans, lower than
anticipated revenues, increased expenses, stock repurchases, potential
acquisitions or other events will not cause the Company to seek additional
financing sooner than anticipated, prevent the Company from achieving the goals
of its expansion strategy or prevent any newly opened locations from operating
profitably. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be
available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all.
