Stockinger continued, "First quarter 2022 Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA margins, a non-GAAP financial measure,(3) improved to
Stockinger further commented, "When compared to the first quarter of 2021, our Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA margins declined during the first quarter of 2022 primarily due to total labor and food cost increases, which were only partially offset in the quarter given our pricing action to offset those costs in the last month of the quarter. First quarter 2022 net loss from continuing operations was
Stockinger continued, "Our singular focus on Pollo Tropical has enabled us to make significant progress on the brand’s growth initiatives during the first quarter. First, we made great strides on enhancing our digital platform. The rollout of the upgraded digital drive thru technology is underway with five to six additional units to be completed by the end of the second quarter. The pace of rollout of this additional feature will increase during the remainder of the year. As a result of improved staffing levels, we also re-opened curbside capability in all units and plan to add marketing support behind this effort going forward. Second, we continue to refine and implement our new, more efficient kitchen design in upcoming refreshes and remodels, which significantly reduces order cycle times and unlocks unmet drive thru demand in high volume units. Our first total retrofit is in the final stages of implementation, with additional retrofits planned for the balance of 2022. And third, we completed seven additional refreshes and remodels during the first quarter, making 15 in total since 2021. The sales lift(5) on the refreshed units completed to date was approximately +
Stockinger concluded, "Our team has proactively and successfully managed external labor supply and inflationary challenges. We are encouraged by our continued sales and margin momentum thus far in 2022, something we expect to see continue for the balance of the year - barring unforeseen changes in our operating environment. Significantly, we have also finalized plans to reduce G&A expenses and we expect to see this positively impact the second half of this year - aiming to achieve our targeted range of

|
|
|
- First quarter 2022 comparable restaurant sales vs 2021 were negatively impacted by remodels and refreshes that temporarily closed dine-in and counter take-out operations. We estimate that these temporary dine-in closures negatively impacted comparable restaurant sales by approximately 40 basis points in the first quarter of 2022.
- First quarter 2022 comparable restaurant sales benefited from the timing of the Easter holiday. After adjusting for the impact of the holiday timing, first quarter 2022 comparable sales would have been approximately 30 basis points lower.

Refresh and Remodel Status and Results
We are taking a disciplined approach to testing upgraded/updated restaurant design elements and operating platform improvements as we refurbish existing units. We developed the new unit design and operational improvements based on consumer research and engineering studies from a leading restaurant engineering firm, and we surveyed customers at the first remodel on the design and received very positive customer feedback. We are targeting completion of 20 to 30 refresh/remodels in 2022. Seven remodel/refreshes were completed in the first quarter of 2022 and 15 in total have been completed since 2021,
We are implementing two levels of investment and scope:
-
Refreshes include updated exterior colors and attractive design elements and interior upgrades including more attractive and updated colors, new dining room furniture, bathrooms, limited patio upgrades and other customer facing upgrades. Targeted average investment for refreshes is expected to average approximately
, and the majority of our refurbishments will be refreshes. Average investment per refresh completed to date has been below targeted levels.$275,000 -
Remodels include updated exterior colors and attractive design elements and interior upgrades including updated colors, more comprehensive interior updates including new dining room furniture, kitchen retrofits, more extensive consumer facing dining room updates, and more extensive patio upgrades. Targeted average investment for remodels is expected to average approximately
, and the majority of remodels will be targeted at units with above average annual sales. Average investment per remodel to date is in line with the targeted investment level.$560,000

Supplemental Non-GAAP Information
The following table sets forth certain unaudited supplemental financial data for the periods indicated
(In thousands):
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and margin and Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA and margin are non-GAAP financial measures. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment and other lease charges (recoveries), goodwill impairment, closed restaurant rent expense, net of sublease income, stock-based compensation expense, other expense (income), net, and certain significant items that are related to strategic changes and/or are not related to the ongoing operation of our restaurants as set forth in the reconciliation table below. Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA excluding franchise royalty revenues and fees, pre-opening costs and general and administrative expenses (including corporate-level general and administrative expenses).
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is the primary measure of profit or loss used by our chief operating decision maker for purposes of assessing performance. In addition, management believes that Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results of operations calculated in accordance with GAAP and our reconciliation of net income (loss) to Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant-level Adjusted EBITDA (i) provide useful information about our operating performance and period-over-period changes, (ii) provide additional information that is useful for evaluating the operating performance of our business, and (iii) permit investors to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our ongoing earnings, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced. However, such measures are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly, should not be considered as alternatives to net income or cash flow from operating activities as indicators of operating performance or liquidity. Also, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled captions of other companies.

Supplemental Non-GAAP Information
The following table sets forth certain unaudited supplemental financial data for the periods indicated
(In thousands of dollars, except per share amounts):
Adjusted net income and related adjusted diluted earnings per share are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted net income is defined as net income (loss) before discontinued operations, impairment and other lease charges (recoveries), goodwill impairment, closed restaurant rent expense, net of sublease income, other expense (income), net, and other significant items that are related to strategic changes and/or are not related to the ongoing operation of our restaurants. Management believes that adjusted net income and related adjusted earnings per diluted share, when viewed with our results of operations calculated in accordance with GAAP (i) provide useful information about our operating performance and period-over-period growth, (ii) provide additional information that is useful for evaluating the operating performance of our business, and (iii) permit investors to gain an understanding of the factors and trends affecting our ongoing earnings, from which capital investments are made and debt is serviced. However, such measures are not measures of financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and, accordingly should not be considered as alternatives to net income or net income per share as indicators of operating performance or liquidity. Also, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled captions of other companies.
