Insights

The latest quarterly results from Good Times Restaurants show a mixed performance across their two main brands. The Bad Daddy's brand demonstrated resilience with a 3.2% increase in same-store sales, outperforming the casual dining sector which has faced challenges. This growth suggests effective operational strategies and menu offerings.

However, the Good Times brand saw a slight 0.1% decrease in same-store sales, primarily due to intense competition and discounting in the quick-service segment. The company's commitment to quality over deep discounting may impact short-term sales but could protect margins and brand value long-term.

For the fiscal year 2024, Good Times brand showed a 2.9% increase in same-store sales, while Bad Daddy's experienced a 1.2% decrease. The introduction of new menu items like the Bambino Supremo and the focus on value options could help drive sales in the coming quarters. Investors should monitor how these strategies impact both top-line growth and profitability in the highly competitive restaurant industry.

(Nasdaq: GTIM), operator of Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar and Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard, today announced that same store sales1 decreased 0.1% for its Good Times brand and increased 3.2% for its Bad Daddy’s brand for its fourth fiscal quarter ended September 24, 2024, compared to the prior-year fiscal quarter.
