THE ONE GROUP HOSPITALITY, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Summary of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Business

The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a global hospitality company that develops, owns and operates, manages and licenses upscale and polished casual, high-energy restaurants and lounges and provides turn-key food and beverage (“F&B”) services for hospitality venues including hotels, casinos and other high-end locations. Turn-key F&B services are food and beverage services that can be scaled, customized and implemented by the Company for the client at a particular hospitality venue. The Company’s primary restaurant brands are STK, a multi-unit steakhouse concept that combines a high-energy, social atmosphere with the quality and service of a traditional upscale steakhouse, and Kona Grill, a polished casual bar-centric grill concept featuring American favorites, award-winning sushi, and specialty cocktails in a polished casual atmosphere.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company-owned, operated, managed, or licensed 58 venues, including 22 STKs and 24 Kona Grills in major metropolitan cities in North America, Europe and the Middle East and 12 F&B venues in six hotels and casinos in the United States and Europe. In January 2021, the Company opened a managed STK restaurant in Scottsdale, Arizona. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company opened a managed STK restaurant in the Westminster area of London, United Kingdom and a licensed STK restaurant within the Los Cabos International Airport in San Jose del Cabo, Mexico which represents the STK brand’s debut at an airport. In May 2021, the Company also opened Bao Yum, a new brand under ONE Hospitality, and commenced management of certain F&B hospitality management services at the Westminster Curio Hotel in London, United Kingdom. For those restaurants that are managed or licensed, the Company generates management fee revenue based on top-line revenues and incentive fee revenue based on a percentage of the location’s revenues and profits.

COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the Company’s business due to state and local government mandates, including suspension of in-person dining, reduced seating capacity and social distancing. Beginning in mid-March 2020, the Company experienced a significant reduction in guest traffic due to government mandated restrictions resulting in the temporary closure of several restaurants and the shift in operations to provide only take-out and delivery service. Starting in May 2020, state and local governments began easing restrictions on stay-at-home orders; however, certain states reimposed restrictions as COVID-19 cases increased during the fall of 2020. In February 2021, many jurisdictions began easing restrictions once again and the Company has experienced strong sales momentum coming out of the pandemic. Currently, all domestic and international restaurants are open for in-person dining. The Company has taken significant steps to adapt its business to increase sales while providing a safe environment for guests and employees.

Given the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company cannot reasonably predict if the sales and profitability levels coming out of the pandemic will continue for the remainder of 2021. It is possible that an increase in cases could require reduction in seating capacity or restrictions on in-restaurant dining operations and could materially and negatively affect the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s continuation of normal dining operations is subject to events beyond its control, including the effectiveness of governmental efforts to halt the spread of COVID-19.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited financial statements have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Table of Contents

In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Additionally, the Company believes that the disclosures are sufficient for interim financial reporting purposes.

Prior Period Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of the 2020 amounts in the accrued expenses and segment reporting footnotes have been made to conform to the current year presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU’) 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” ASU 2020-04 provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to ease financial reporting burdens related to applying GAAP to modifications of contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions in connection with the transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 to clarify that certain optional expedients and exceptions apply to modifications of derivative contracts and certain hedging relationships affected by changes in the interest rates used for discounting cash flows, computing variation margin settlements, and for calculating price alignment interest. ASU 2020-04 is effective beginning on March 12, 2020 and may be applied prospectively to such transactions through December 31, 2022. ASU 2021-01 is effective beginning on January 7, 2021 and may be applied retrospectively or prospectively to such transactions through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 and assessing the impact on its financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,” (“ASU 2019-12”) which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Accounting Standard Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes, and it clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2020. We adopted ASU No. 2019-12 on January 1, 2021 and it did not have a significant impact to the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This update requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires a consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2016-13 and assessing the impact on its financial statements.

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $1.3 million in standby letters of credit outstanding for certain restaurants and $10.7 million available in its revolving credit facility, subject to certain conditions.

Credit and Guaranty Agreement

On October 4, 2019, in conjunction with the acquisition of Kona Grill, the Company entered into a credit and guaranty agreement with Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for a secured revolving credit facility of $12.0 million and a $48.0 million term loan. The term loan is payable in quarterly installments, with the final payment due in October 2024. The revolving credit facility also matures in October 2024.

On May 4, 2020, Goldman Sachs Bank USA (“GSB”), as administrative agent, collateral agent and lead arranger under the Credit Agreement, (1) consented to the CARES Act Loans described below and (2) agreed that the amount of the CARES Act Loans will not be counted toward the permitted amount of Consolidated Total Debt, as defined under the Credit Agreement, to the extent the amounts are retained as cash during the term of the CARES Act Loans in a segregated deposit account or used for purposes that are forgivable under the CARES Act, provided that the proceeds of the CARES Act Loans must be used only for “allowable uses” under the CARES Act (with at least 75% of the utilized proceeds to be used for purposes that result in the CARES Act Loans being eligible for forgiveness) or used for the repayment of the CARES Act Loans.

On May 8, 2020 and August 10, 2020, GSB and the Company and certain of its subsidiaries amended the Credit Agreement. A summary of the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement, as amended, is as follows:

The minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio is (i) eliminated for the balance of 2020 and 2021; and (ii) 1.50 to 1.00 as of any fiscal quarter thereafter;
A maximum consolidated Net Leverage Ratio of (i) 2.85 to 1.00 as of the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2020, (ii) 3.60 to 1.00 as of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2020, (iii) 3.10 to 1.00 as of the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2021, (iv) 2.10 to 1.00 as of the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021, (v) 1.90 to 1.00 as of the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021, and (vi) maximum consolidated Leverage Ratio of 1.50 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter thereafter. For purposes of calculating this ratio for the first four quarters, the agreement provides for a pro forma adjustment to reflect one full year of Kona Grill operations. In addition, the consolidated net leverage ratio reduces the Company’s debt by its cash and cash equivalents. The consolidated leverage ratio has no such reductions;
Maximum consolidated capital expenditures not to exceed (i) $7,000,000 in each of 2020 and 2021, and (ii) $8,000,000 in every fiscal year thereafter; and,
Minimum consolidated liquidity of not less than (i) $4,000,000 for the remainder of 2020 and 2021, and (ii) $1,500,000 at any time thereafter.

The Credit Agreement has several borrowing and interest rate options, including the following: (a) a LIBOR rate (or a comparable successor rate) subject to a 1.75% floor; or (b) a base rate equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (iii) the LIBOR rate for a one-month period plus 1.00%, or (iv) 4.75%. Loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus a varying interest rate margin of between 5.75% and 6.75% (for LIBOR rate loans) and 4.75% and 5.75% (for base rate loans). The Company’s weighted average interest rate on the borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was 8.50% and 8.50%, respectively.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and conditions to borrowing including customary affirmative and negative covenants, which include covenants that limit or restrict the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness and other obligations, grant liens to secure obligations, make investments, merge or consolidate, alter the organizational structure of the Company and its subsidiaries, and dispose of assets outside the ordinary course of business, in each case subject to customary exceptions for credit facilities of this size and type.

The Company and certain operating subsidiaries of the Company guarantee the obligations under the Credit Agreement, which also are secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Company has incurred approximately $2.5 million of debt issuance costs related to the Credit Agreement, which were capitalized and are recorded as a direct deduction to the long-term debt, net of current portion, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with the covenants required by the Credit Agreement.

On August 6, 2021, the Company amended the Credit Agreement with GSB. Refer to Note 16 for further information.

Equipment Financing Agreements

On June 5, 2015 and August 16, 2016, the Company entered into financing agreements with Sterling National Bank for $1.0 million and $0.7 million, respectively, to purchase equipment for the STKs in Orlando, Chicago, San Diego, and Denver. Each of these financing agreements has five-year terms and bear interest at a rate of 5% per annum, payable in equal monthly installments.

CARES Act Loans

On May 4, 2020, two subsidiaries of the Company entered into promissory notes (“CARES Act Loans”) with BBVA USA under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) created by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). Repayment of the CARES Act Loans is guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The ONE Group, LLC received a loan of $9.8 million related to the operations of STK restaurants, and Kona Grill Acquisition, LLC received a loan of $8.5 million related to the operation of Kona Grill restaurants. The CARES Act Loans are scheduled to mature on April 28, 2022 and have a 1.00% interest rate and are subject to the terms and conditions applicable to PPP loans.

The CARES Act Loans are eligible for forgiveness if the proceeds are used for qualified purposes within a specified period and if at least 60% is spent on payroll costs. The Company has used all of the proceeds from the CARES Act Loans for qualified purposes in accordance with the CARES Act and SBA regulations, and these funds have supported the re-opening of in person dining and the return of approximately 3,000 furloughed employees to work. The Company anticipates forgiveness of the entire amount of CARES Act Loans; however, no assurance can be provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the CARES Act Loans in whole or in part. Therefore, the Company has elected to classify the entire principal amount of the CARES Act Loans as debt.

The Company applied for forgiveness of the CARES Act Loans in February 2021. In June 2021, the Company was notified that the SBA had forgiven the CARES Act Loan for Kona Grill Acquisition, LLC in its entirety. As a result, the Company recognized an $8.6 million gain on CARES Act Loan forgiveness for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Subsequently, in July 2021, the Company was notified that the SBA had forgiven the CARES Act Loan for The ONE Group, LLC in its entirety.

Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short maturities. Long-lived assets are measured and disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis if an impairment is identified. There were no long-lived assets measured at fair value as of June 30, 2021.

The Company’s long-term debt, including the current portion, is carried at cost on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Fair value of long-term debt, including the current portion, is estimated based on Level 2 inputs, except the amount outstanding on the revolving credit facility for which the carrying value approximates fair value. Fair value is determined by discounting future cash flows using interest rates available for issuers with similar terms and maturities.

Note 7 – Bagatelle

As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company-owned interests in the following companies, which directly or indirectly operate a restaurant:

31.24% interest in Bagatelle NY LA Investors, LLC (“Bagatelle Investors”)
51.13% aggregate interest, held directly and indirectly through other entities, in Bagatelle Little West 12th, LLC (“Bagatelle NY”)

Bagatelle Investors is a holding company that has an interest in Bagatelle NY. The Company records its retained interests in Bagatelle Investors and Bagatelle NY as investments as the Company has determined that it does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over its investees, Bagatelle Investors and Bagatelle NY. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has zero carrying value in these investments.

Net receivables from the Bagatelle entities included in due from related parties, net were $0.4 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. These receivables represent the Company’s maximum exposure to loss. Upon expiration of the lease in November 2020, the Company exited its contract with Bagatelle.

Note 8 – Income taxes

Income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are recorded at the Company’s estimated annual effective income tax rate, subject to adjustments for discrete events, should they occur. The Company’s effective income tax rate including discrete events was 6.5% and 4.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 49.8% and 32.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. The Company’s annualized effective tax rate is estimated at approximately 11.7% for 2021. The Company’s projected annual effective tax rate differs from the statutory U.S. tax rate of 21% primarily due to the following: (i) tax credits for FICA taxes on certain employees’ tips (ii) taxes owed in foreign jurisdictions such as the United Kingdom, Canada and Italy; (iii) taxes owed in state and local jurisdictions; (iv) the tax effect of non-deductible compensation and (v) forgiveness of the CARES Act Loan is non-taxable. Income tax provision recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 also included the discrete period tax benefits resulting from the vesting of restricted stock units and exercise of stock options.

The CARES Act includes provisions allowing for the carryback of net operating losses generated for specific periods and technical amendments regarding the expensing of qualified improvement property. The CARES Act also allows for the deferral of the employer-paid portion of social security taxes, which the Company has elected to defer.

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and the various states and local jurisdictions in which it operates. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by the federal, state, local and foreign taxing authorities.

Due to the negative effects of COVID-19, the Company implemented measures to reduce its costs, including negotiations with landlords regarding rent concessions. The Company is in ongoing discussions with landlords regarding rent obligations, including deferrals, abatements, and/or restructuring of rent. As the rent concessions received and currently being contemplated do not result in a significant increase in cash payments, the Company has elected to account for these concessions as a variable lease payment in accordance with ASC Topic 842. The Company’s right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities have not been remeasured for lease concessions received. Variable lease cost is comprised of percentage rent and common area maintenance, offset by rent concessions received as a result of COVID-19.

The Company has entered into an operating lease for a future STK restaurant in Dallas, Texas that had not commenced as of June 30, 2021. The present value of the aggregate future commitment related to this lease totals $5.2 million. The Company expects this lease, which has an initial lease term of 15 years and two five-year options, to commence within the next twelve months.

Note 15 – Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is party to claims in lawsuits incidental to its business, including lease disputes and employee-related matters. While the resolution of a lawsuit, proceeding or claim may have an impact on the Company’s financial results for the period in which it is resolved, in the opinion of management, the ultimate outcome of such matters and judgements in which the Company is currently involved, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 16 – Subsequent Events

In July 2021, the Company was notified that the SBA had forgiven the CARES Act Loan for The ONE Group, LLC in its entirety.

On August 6, 2021, the Company amended the Credit Agreement with Goldman Sachs Bank USA.

The amended agreement provides for additional flexibility and extends the maturity date for both the term loan and revolving credit facility by five years to August 2026. The amendment provides for a secured revolving credit facility of $12.0 million and a $25.0 million term loan which was reduced from $48.0 million. The term loan is payable in quarterly installments, with the final payment due in August 2026.

A summary of other changes to the amended Credit Agreement include:

Removes all financial covenants except a maximum net leverage ratio of 2.00 to 1.00;
Removes restrictions on the maximum amount of capital expenditures;
Removes restrictions on the maximum number of Company-owned new locations; and
Removes restrictions on credit extensions with regards to the revolving credit facility

The amended Credit Agreement has several borrowing and interest rate options, including the following: (a) a LIBOR rate (or a comparable successor rate) subject to a 1.00% floor from a 1.75% floor or (b) a base rate equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (iii) the LIBOR rate for a one-month period plus 1.00% or (iv) 4.00%. Loans under the amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus an interest rate margin of 5.00% from a variable interest rate margin of 5.75 to 6.75% (for LIBOR rate loans) and 4.00% from 4.75% to 5.75% (for base rate loans).

Business Summary

We are a global hospitality company that develops, owns and operates, manages and licenses upscale and polished casual, high-energy restaurants and lounges and provides turn-key food and beverage (“F&B”) services for hospitality venues including hotels, casinos and other high-end locations. Turn-key F&B services are food and beverage services that can be scaled, customized and implemented by us for the client at a particular hospitality venue. Our vision is to be a global market leader in the hospitality industry by melding high-quality service, ambiance, high-energy and cuisine into one great experience that we refer to as “Vibe Dining”. We design all our restaurants, lounges and F&B services to create a social dining and high-energy entertainment experience within a destination location. We believe that this design and operating philosophy separates us from more traditional restaurant and foodservice competitors.

Our primary restaurant brands are STK, a multi-unit steakhouse concept that combines a high-energy, social atmosphere with the quality and service of a traditional upscale steakhouse, and Kona Grill, a polished casual bar-centric grill concept featuring American favorites, award-winning sushi, and specialty cocktails in a polished casual atmosphere. Our F&B hospitality management services include developing, managing and operating restaurants, bars, rooftop lounges, pools, banqueting and catering facilities, private dining rooms, room service and mini bars tailored to the specific needs of high-end hotels and casinos. Our F&B hospitality clients operate global hospitality brands such as the W Hotel, Hippodrome Casino, Curio and ME Hotels.

We opened our first restaurant in January 2004 in New York, New York, and, as of June 30, 2021, we owned, operated, managed or licensed 58 venues including 22 STKs and 24 Kona Grills in major metropolitan cities in North America, Europe and the Middle East and 12 F&B venues operated under ONE Hospitality in six hotels and casinos throughout the United States and Europe. In January 2021, we opened a managed STK restaurant in Scottsdale, Arizona. In the second quarter of 2021, we opened a managed STK restaurant in the Westminster area of London, United Kingdom and a licensed STK restaurant within the Los Cabos International

Airport in San Jose del Cabo, Mexico which represents the brand’s debut at an airport. In May 2021, the Company also opened Bao Yum, a new brand under ONE Hospitality, and commenced management of certain F&B hospitality management services at the Westminster Curio Hotel in London, United Kingdom. For those restaurants and venues that are managed or licensed, we generate management fee revenue based on top-line revenues and incentive fee revenue based on a percentage of the location’s revenues and net profits.

Our Growth Strategies and Outlook

Our growth model is primarily driven by the following:

Expansion of our STK and Kona Grill restaurants
Expansion through New F&B Hospitality Projects
Increase Same Store Sales and Increase Operating Efficiency
Acquisitions

We intend to open thirteen new venues between 2021 and 2022 of which six are currently open. In July 2021, we opened an owned STK restaurant in Bellevue, Washington. There is currently one Company-owned STK restaurant (Dallas, TX) and one managed STK restaurant (Stratford, UK) under development. As our footprint increases, we expect to benefit by leveraging system-wide operating efficiencies and best practices through the management of our general and administrative expenses as a percentage of overall revenue.

COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted our business due to state and local government mandates, including suspension of in-person dining, reduced seating capacity and social distancing. Beginning in mid-March 2020, we experienced a significant reduction in guest traffic due to government mandated restrictions resulting in the temporary closure of several restaurants and the shift in operations to provide only take-out and delivery service. Starting in May 2020, state and local governments began easing restrictions on stay-at-home orders; however, certain states reimposed restrictions as COVID-19 cases increased during the fall of 2020. In February 2021, many jurisdictions began easing restrictions again and we experienced strong sales momentum coming out of the pandemic. Currently, all domestic restaurants are open for in-person dining. We have taken significant steps to adapt our business to increase sales while providing a safe environment for guests and employees.

Given the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, we cannot reasonably predict if the sales and profitability levels coming out of the pandemic will continue for the remainder of 2021. It is possible that an increase in cases could require reduction in seating capacity or restrictions on in-restaurant dining operations and could materially and negatively affect our results of operations. Our continuation of normal dining operations is subject to events beyond its control, including the effectiveness of governmental efforts to halt the spread of COVID-19.

Executive Summary

Total revenue increased $54.1 million, or 324.6% to $70.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $16.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to strong consumer demand as state and local governments lifted seating capacity restrictions in the markets in which we operate. Same-store sales increased 324.1% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020 as starting in mid-March 2020 restaurants were temporarily closed or operated only with take-out and delivery service due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. On a two-year basis, same store sales for the second quarter of 2021 increased 38.0% compared to the second quarter of 2019. STK same store sales increased 54.3% on a two-year basis while Kona Grill same store sales increased 23.0%.

Restaurant operating profit increased $15.0 million to $15.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Restaurant operating profit as a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue was 22.6% compared to 1.9% in the second quarter of 2020. On a sequential basis, restaurant operating profit as a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue was 16.0% in the fourth quarter of 2020, 18.8% in the first quarter of 2021 and 22.6% in the second quarter of 2021.

Operating income increased $13.0 million to $7.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to an operating loss of $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily driven by strong sales momentum aided by increased seating capacity in our restaurants as state and local governments eased seating capacity restrictions as COVID-19 cases decreased and vaccination efforts increased along with increased restaurant operating profit as a percentage of revenue driven by strong cost discipline.

Total revenues increased $63.9 million, or 111.3% to $121.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $57.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Restaurant operating profit increased $22.3 million to $24.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to restaurant operating profit of $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we generated operating income of $8.6 million compared to an operating loss of $9.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant operating profit are presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to supplement other measures of financial performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant operating profit are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We define EBITDA as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment loss, non-cash rent expense, pre-opening expenses, lease termination expenses, stock-based compensation, COVID-19 related expenses and non-recurring gains and losses. Not all of the items defining Adjusted EBITDA occur in each reporting period but have been included in our definitions of these terms based on our historical activity. We define Restaurant operating profit as owned restaurant net revenue minus owned restaurant cost of sales and owned restaurant operating expenses.

We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant operating profit are appropriate measures of our operating performance because they eliminate non-cash or non-recurring expenses that do not reflect our underlying business performance. We believe Restaurant operating profit is an important component of financial results because: (i) it is a widely used metric within the restaurant industry to evaluate restaurant-level productivity, efficiency, and performance, and (ii) we use Restaurant operating profit as a key metric to evaluate our restaurant financial performance compared to our competitors. We use these metrics to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period, to analyze the factors and trends affecting our business and to evaluate the performance of our restaurants. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies; accordingly, you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant operating profit are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant operating profit, alongside other GAAP measures such as net income, to measure profitability, as a key profitability target in our budgets, and to compare our performance against that of peer companies despite possible differences in calculation.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Revenues

Owned restaurant net revenue. Owned restaurant net revenue increased $51.3 million, or 310.5%, to $67.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $16.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to strong sales momentum as state and local governments continued to ease seating capacity restrictions in the markets in which we operate coupled with strong execution of our sales initiatives. Comparable restaurant sales increased 324.1% in the second quarter of 2021.

Management and license fee revenue. Management and license fee revenues increased $2.8 million to $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to local governments lifting stay at home orders and easing seating capacity restrictions in the markets in which we operate as well as revenue generated from the opening of one managed STK, one licensed STK and two managed F&B venues during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Cost and Expenses

Owned restaurant cost of sales. Food and beverage costs for owned restaurants increased $13.0 million, or 311.9%, to $17.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $4.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was due to the incremental sales increases. As a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue, cost of sales was flat at 25.3% for each of the three months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020.

Owned restaurant operating expenses. Owned restaurant operating expenses increased $23.3 million to $35.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $12.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Owned restaurant operating costs decreased 2,075 basis points as a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue from 72.8% in the three months ended June 30, 2020 to 52.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 due to leverage on higher average weekly sales, actively managing operating costs and the impact of COVID-19 in the second quarter of 2020.

General and administrative. General and administrative costs increased $3.7 million, or 151.8%, to $6.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 from $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was attributable to increased activity as our restaurants are generating strong average weekly sales compared to cost savings measures taken in the prior year period as a result of COVID-19, including the furlough of employees and reduction of third-party professional fees. The increase in general and administrative costs is also due to accruals for incentive compensation and a $0.6 million increase in stock-based compensation, driven by employer payroll taxes on stock option exercises and restricted stock vesting due to an increase in our stock price during 2021.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was consistent at $2.5 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Pre-opening expenses. In the three months ended June 30, 2021, we incurred $0.2 million of pre-opening expenses related to the STK Bellevue restaurant which opened in July 2021.

COVID-19 related expenses. COVID-19 related expenses were $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $0.7 million in the prior year period. COVID-19 related expenses are composed primarily of sanitation, supplies and safety precautions taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Agreement restructuring expenses. Agreement restructuring expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $0.5 million related to the restructuring of four agreements with our management and license partners. We do not expect to incur additional agreement restructuring expenses going forward.

Interest expense, net of interest income. Interest expense, net of interest income was $1.2 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Provision (benefit) for income taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $1.0 million compared to a tax benefit of $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our 2021 annualized effective tax rate is estimated at 11.7% for 2021. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the provision for income taxes included discrete period tax benefits resulting from the vesting of restricted stock units and the exercise of stock options.

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to net loss of $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 and 2020

Revenues

Owned restaurant net revenue. Owned restaurant net revenue increased $61.9 million, or 112.4%, to $117.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $55.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to strong sales momentum as state and local governments continue to ease seating capacity restrictions in the markets in which we operate. Comparable restaurant sales increased 110.3% in the first six months of 2021.

Management and license fee revenue. Management and license fee revenues increased $1.9 million to $4.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to local governments lifting stay at home orders and easing seating capacity restrictions in the markets in which we operate as well as revenues generated from the opening of two managed STKs, one new licensed STK and two managed F&B venues during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Cost and Expenses

Owned restaurant cost of sales. Food and beverage costs for owned restaurants increased $14.9 million, or 104.3%, to $29.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $14.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was due to incremental sales increases. As a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue, cost of sales decreased 100 basis points to 24.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from 25.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 due to purchasing synergies across the Company and menu optimization, partially offset by increases in commodity prices.

Owned restaurant operating expenses. Owned restaurant operating expenses increased $24.7 million to $63.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $38.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Owned restaurant operating costs decreased 1,590 basis points as a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue from 70.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to 54.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to leverage on higher average weekly sales, actively managing operating costs and the impact of COVID-19 in the first half of 2020.

General and administrative. General and administrative costs increased $5.5 million to $11.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was attributable to increased activity as restaurants resume in-person dining compared to the prior year period when cost savings measures were implemented as a result of COVID-19 and accruals for incentive compensation. Higher stock-based compensation of $2.2 million also contributed to the increase in general and administrative expenses driven by certain grants that vested based on stock price thresholds during the first quarter as well as employer payroll taxes on stock option exercises and restricted stock vesting.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.2 million to $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Pre-opening expenses. In the six months ended June 30, 2021, we incurred $0.3 million of pre-opening expenses related to the STK Bellevue restaurant which opened in July 2021.

COVID-19 related expenses. COVID-19 related expenses were $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. COVID-19 related expenses are composed primarily of sanitation, supplies and safety precautions taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Agreement restructuring expenses. Agreement restructuring expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $0.5 million related to the restructuring of four agreements with our management and license partners. We do not expect to incur additional agreement restructuring expenses going forward.

Provision (benefit) for income taxes. The provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $0.6 million compared to a tax benefit of $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Our 2021 annualized effective tax rate is estimated

at 11.7% for 2021. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the provision for income taxes included discrete period tax benefits resulting from the vesting of restricted stock units and the exercise of stock options.

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest was $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to net loss of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Executive Summary

Our principal liquidity requirements are to meet our lease obligations, working capital and capital expenditure needs and to pay principal and interest on outstanding debt. Subject to our operating performance, which, if significantly adversely affected, would adversely affect the availability of funds, we expect to finance our operations for at least the next 12 months, including the costs of opening currently planned new restaurants, through cash provided by operations and construction allowances provided by landlords of certain locations. We believe the combination of the aforementioned items are adequate to support our immediate business operations and plans. At June 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $41.4 million. We had $47.2 million in long-term debt, which consisted of our Credit Agreement and an equipment financing agreement, and $9.8 million in CARES Act Loan as of June 30, 2021. Subsequently, in July 2021, the Company was notified that the SBA had forgiven the $9.8 million CARES Act Loan in its entirety. As of June 30, 2021, the availability on our revolving credit facility was $10.7 million, subject to the restrictions described in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In the six months ended June 30, 2021, capital expenditures were $5.4 million primarily for the construction of an STK restaurant in Bellevue, Washington, technology initiatives, and capital expenditures for existing restaurants. Our future cash requirements will depend on many factors, including the pace of expansion, conditions in the retail property development market, construction costs, the nature of the specific sites selected for new restaurants, and the nature of the specific leases and associated tenant improvement allowances available, if any, as negotiated with landlords. Additionally, under our current capital light expansion strategy, we plan to enter into management and license agreements for the operation of future STK restaurants where we are not required to contribute significant capital upfront.

Our operations have not required significant working capital, and, like many restaurant companies, we may have negative working capital during the year. Revenues are received primarily in credit card or cash receipts, and restaurant operations do not require significant receivables or inventories, other than our wine inventory. In addition, we receive trade credit for the purchase of food, beverages and supplies, thereby reducing the need for incremental working capital to support growth.

In the event the Company needs to temporarily suspend all operations due to COVID-19 restrictions, the ongoing operating costs per month are expected to be as follows:

Credit Agreement

On October 4, 2019, in conjunction with the acquisition of Kona Grill, we entered into the Credit Agreement with Goldman Sachs Bank USA that provides for a secured revolving credit facility of $12.0 million and a $48.0 million term loan. The term loan is payable in quarterly installments, with the final payment due in October 2024. The revolving credit facility also matures in October 2024.

On August 6, 2021, the Company amended the Credit Agreement with Goldman Sachs Bank USA.

The amended agreement provides for additional flexibility and extends the maturity date for both the term loan and revolving credit facility by five years to August 2026. The amendment provides for a secured revolving credit facility of $12.0 million and a

27

Table of Contents

$25.0 million term loan which was reduced $48.0 million. The term loan is payable in quarterly installments, with the final payment due in August 2026.

A summary of other changes to the amended Credit Agreement include:

Removes all financial covenants except a maximum net leverage ratio of 2.00 to 1.00;
Removes restrictions on the maximum amount of capital expenditures;
Removes restrictions on the maximum number of Company-owned new locations; and
Removes restrictions on credit extensions with regards to the revolving credit facility

The amended Credit Agreement has several borrowing and interest rate options, including the following: (a) a LIBOR rate (or a comparable successor rate) subject to a 1.00% floor from a 1.75% floor or (b) a base rate equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (iii) the LIBOR rate for a one-month period plus 1.00% or (iv) 4.00%. Loans under the amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus an interest rate margin of 5.00% from a variable interest rate margin of 5.75 to 6.75% (for LIBOR rate loans) and 4.00% from 4.75% to 5.75% (for base rate loans).

As of June 30, 2021, we were compliant with the covenants required by the Credit Agreement. Based on current projections, we believe that we would continue to comply with the covenants in the Credit Agreement, as amended, throughout the twelve months following the issuance of the financial statements.

Refer to Note 5, Note 15 and Note 16 to our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information regarding the terms of our long-term debt arrangements and information regarding our commitments and contingencies.

CARES Act Loans

On May 4, 2020, two subsidiaries of the Company obtained CARES Act Loans from BBVA USA under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) created by the CARES Act. Repayment of the CARES Act Loans is guaranteed by the SBA. The ONE Group, LLC received a loan of $9.8 million related to the operations of STK restaurants, and Kona Grill Acquisition, LLC received a loan of $8.5 million related to the operation of Kona Grill restaurants.

The CARES Act Loans are eligible for forgiveness if the proceeds are used for qualified purposes within a specified period and if at least 60% is spent on payroll costs. The Company has used all of the proceeds from the CARES Act Loans for qualified purposes in accordance with the CARES Act and SBA regulations, and these funds have supported the re-opening of in person dining and the return of approximately 3,000 furloughed employees to work. The Company anticipates forgiveness of the entire amount of CARES Act Loans; however, no assurance can be provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the CARES Act Loans in whole or in part. Therefore, the Company has elected to classify the entire principal amount of the CARES Act Loans as debt.

The Company applied for forgiveness of the CARES Act Loans in February 2021. In June 2021, the Company received notification that the SBA had forgiven the CARES Act Loan and related interest for Kona Grill Acquisition, LLC in its entirety. As a result, the Company recognized an $8.6 million gain on CARES Act Loan forgiveness for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Subsequently, in July 2021, the Company received notification that the SBA had forgiven the CARES Act Loan for The ONE Group, LLC in its entirety.

Capital Expenditures and Lease Arrangements

To the extent we open new Company-owned restaurants, we anticipate capital expenditures would increase related to the construction of new restaurants compared to general capital expenditures of existing restaurants. Although we are committed to our capital light strategy, in which our capital investment is expected to be limited, we are willing to consider opening owned restaurants as opportunities arise. For owned restaurants, where we build from a shell state, we have typically targeted an average cash investment of approximately $3.8 million for a 10,000 square-foot STK restaurant, net of landlord contributions and equipment financing and excluding pre-opening costs. For locations where we may be the successor restaurant tenant, and currently our preference, total cash investment will be significantly less and in the $1.0 million to $1.5 million range. Typical pre-opening costs will be in the $0.3 million to $0.5 million range. In addition, some of our existing restaurants will require capital improvements to either maintain or improve the facilities. We may add seating or provide enclosures for outdoor space in the next twelve months for some of our locations, which we expect will increase revenues for those locations.

28

Table of Contents

Our hospitality F&B services projects typically require limited capital investment from us. Capital expenditures for these projects will primarily be funded by cash flows from operations depending upon the timing of these expenditures and cash availability.

We typically seek to lease our restaurant locations for periods of 10 to 20 years under operating lease arrangements, with a limited number of renewal options. Our rent structure varies, but our leases generally provide for the payment of both minimum and contingent rent based on sales, as well as other expenses related to the leases such as our pro-rata share of common area maintenance, property tax and insurance expenses. Many of our lease arrangements include the opportunity to secure tenant improvement allowances to partially offset the cost of developing and opening the related restaurants. Generally, landlords recover the cost of such allowances from increased minimum rents. However, there can be no assurance that such allowances will be available to us on each project that we select for development.

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $19.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to net income generated for the six months ended June 30, 2021, as state and local jurisdictions eased COVID-19 related restrictions compared to a net loss for the same period prior year as a result of COVID-19 restrictions. The increase is also attributed to an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses due to higher restaurant sales volumes.

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $5.4 million primarily for the construction of an STK restaurant in Bellevue, Washington, technology initiatives, and capital expenditures for existing restaurants compared to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as capital expenditures were deferred due to COVID-19.

Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $2.6 million compared to $17.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily related to proceeds from CARES Act Loans.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a detailed description of recent accounting pronouncements. We do not expect the recent accounting pronouncements discussed in Note 1 to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide this information.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation as of the last day of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (a) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is timely recorded, processed, summarized and reported and (b) include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and

29

Table of Contents

communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during the first quarter of 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are subject to claims common to our industry and in the ordinary course of our business. Companies in our industry, including us, have been and are subject to class action lawsuits, primarily regarding compliance with labor laws and regulations. Defending lawsuits requires significant management attention and financial resources and the outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain. We believe that accrual and disclosure for these matters are adequately provided for in our consolidated financial statements. We do not believe the ultimate resolutions of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. However, the resolution of lawsuits is difficult to predict. A significant increase in the number of these claims, or one or more successful claims under which we incur greater liabilities than is currently anticipated, could materially and adversely affect our consolidated financial statements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes to the risk factors contained in Item 1A of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On April 22, 2021, we issued 100,000 shares of common stock to 22235570 Ontario Limited in connection with its exercise of a warrant for aggregate consideration of $261,000. The issuance was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
