“The strength of the BJ’s concept was evident throughout the quarter. We generated record fourth quarter revenue, even with ongoing labor constraints and the significant impact of the Omicron surge, which began in December,” commented Greg Levin, Chief Executive Officer and President. “Our two-year comparable restaurant sales went from negative
“Encouragingly, as Omicron cases decline and staffing continues to improve, our two-year comparable restaurant sales through February to date are once again positive, when adjusting for weather and the shift in the timing of President’s Day weekend. I remain incredibly confident that BJ’s will return to industry-leading results in 2022 as we benefit from four key factors: our differentiated concept and sales and profit initiatives; our team members, culture and gold standard service; our guests’ affinity to our brand, offerings, value and hospitality; and, our significant near- and long-term restaurant expansion opportunity,” continued Levin.
“We are excited to accelerate new restaurant openings and continue to target as many as eight new restaurants in fiscal 2022. We are also planning to remodel several existing locations to increase capacity to address guest demand, while further refining the polished casual energy and excitement that appeals to a wide range of demographics and occasions based on our learnings from our guest research. We remain confident that capacity exists for at least 425 BJ’s restaurants domestically, and we are focused on executing our national expansion plan in a careful and controlled manner that balances new restaurant growth with top-tier locations, new restaurant quality, and the hospitality our guests know and love,” concluded Levin.

Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company is reporting below certain non-GAAP financial results and related reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. These measures should only be used to evaluate the Company’s results of operations in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures.
Reconciliation of Selected GAAP Financial Measures to Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures
To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), the Company has included the following non-GAAP adjusted financial measures in this press release or in the webcast to discuss the Company’s financial results for fourth quarter 2021, which may be accessed via the Company’s website at http://www.bjsrestaurants.com: (i) non-GAAP adjusted net loss and (ii) non-GAAP adjusted diluted net loss per share. Each of these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures is adjusted from results based on GAAP to exclude certain expenses or gains. As a general matter, the Company uses these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP to help analyze the performance of its core business. The Company believes that such non-GAAP adjusted financial information is used by analysts and others in the investment community to analyze the Company’s results and in formulating estimates of future performance and that failure to report these non-GAAP adjusted measures may result in confusion among analysts and others and a misplaced perception that the Company’s results have underperformed or exceeded expectations.
For the fourth quarter ended December 29, 2020, non-GAAP adjusted net loss and non-GAAP adjusted diluted net loss per share excludes the net gain on lease transactions, and a restaurant impairment charge.
For the fiscal year ended December 29, 2020, adjusted net loss and non-GAAP adjusted diluted net loss per share excludes the net gain on lease transactions, the gain related to legal settlements, and restaurant impairment charges.

Restaurant Level Operating Margin
Restaurant level operating margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, is equal to the revenues generated by our restaurants less their direct operating costs which consist of cost of sales, labor and benefits, and occupancy and operating costs. This performance measure primarily includes the costs that restaurant level managers can directly control and excludes other operating costs that are essential to conduct the Company’s business, as detailed in the table below. Management uses restaurant level operating margin as a supplemental measure of restaurant performance. Management believes restaurant level operating margin is useful to investors in that it highlights trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent to investors when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. Because other companies may calculate restaurant level operating margin differently than we do, restaurant level operating margin as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”)
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents the sum of net loss adjusted for certain expenses and gains/losses detailed within the reconciliation below. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance. Management believes these measures are useful to investors in that they highlight cash flow and trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent to investors when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. Because other companies may calculate these measures differently than we do, Adjusted EBITDA as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
