Good Times Restaurants Inc. Segments Disclosure
| 10. | Segment Reporting |
Our (“CODM”) is the President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM assesses performance, makes key decisions, and allocates resources at the concept level and has identified Good Times and Bad Daddy's as our separate operating and reportable segments. The Good Times segment includes the results of our Company-owned Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard restaurants, which are located in the United States and operate within the quick-service restaurant segment of the industry. It also includes royalties and other fees from our franchised locations in the United States. The Bad Daddy’s segment includes the results of our Company-owned Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar restaurants, which are located in the United States and operate within the full-service dining restaurant segment of the industry. It also includes license fees from one licensed location in the United States. Unallocated costs such as human resources, finance, purchasing, restaurant development and administration are recorded at the Corporate level and are included in Other. The amounts reported for each operating segment contain allocations from Corporate for items such as technology support, repair and maintenance, marketing and restaurant accounting. In addition, Corporate collects rent from the Good Times segment related to one restaurant for which the real estate is included in Corporate assets. There are no material transactions between the Good Times and Bad Daddy’s segments.
Restaurant sales for each operating segment include revenues generated by the operation of Company-owned restaurants, which include food and beverage sales, net of discounts. Franchise and other revenues for each operating segment include franchisee royalties and contributions to advertising funds, license fees, and other service fees, as well as gift card breakage.
Our CODM uses Restaurant-level operating profit as the measure for assessing performance and allocating resources for our segments. Restaurant-level operating profit is widely regarded in the restaurant industry as a useful metric by which to evaluate restaurant-level operating efficiency and performance. The Company defines restaurant-level operating profit to be restaurant revenues minus restaurant-level operating costs, excluding restaurant closures and impairment costs. The measure includes restaurant-level occupancy costs, which include fixed rents, percentage rents, common area maintenance charges, real estate and personal property taxes, general liability insurance and other property costs, but excludes depreciation.
We do not rely on any major customers as a source of sales, and the customers and long-lived assets of our operating segments are located in the United States.
Prior to fourth quarter 2025, certain general and administrative expenses now included in Other were combined and reported with our Bad Daddy's segment. In order to better align with our internal reporting and provide a better representation of restaurant-level operating profit, these expenses have been removed from the Bad Daddy's segment and are now stated separately in Other. Fiscal 2024 figures have been recast for comparability.
The following tables reconcile our segment results to our consolidated results reported in accordance with GAAP (in thousands):

About Segments Disclosures
Segment disclosures break a company into its reportable operating units, revealing revenue, profit, and asset allocation that consolidated financial statements obscure. Under ASC 280, segments must match how the chief operating decision maker views the business, providing a window into internal management structure and resource allocation priorities.
Key signals: compare segment margins to identify which units drive profitability and which destroy value. Watch for changes in the number of reportable segments — segment aggregation or disaggregation often coincides with strategic shifts or attempts to obscure declining performance. Intersegment elimination patterns reveal internal pricing practices. The reconciliation between segment totals and consolidated figures exposes corporate overhead allocation and unallocated items. Geographic revenue concentration highlights regulatory and currency exposure. Compare segment-level capital expenditure against segment revenue to assess where management is investing for future growth versus harvesting existing assets.
