CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In addition to historical information, this Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar matters that are not historical facts. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “should,” “will” and “would” or the negatives of these terms or other comparable terminology, but the absence of these particular words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.

You should read this Form 10-Q, and the documents that we reference herein, with the understanding that our actual future results, levels of activity, performance, and events and circumstances may be materially different from what we expect.

You should not place undue reliance on forward looking statements. The cautionary statements identify important factors which you should consider in evaluating our forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things:

●

our inability to meet our debt service obligations or restructure our outstanding indebtedness;

●

our ability to continue as a going concern;

●

our inability to successfully identify and secure appropriate sites and timely develop and expand our operations in existing and new markets, including international markets;

●

our inability to obtain sufficient capital to open up new locations, to renovate existing locations and to deploy strategic initiatives;

●

our inability to optimize our theater circuit through new construction and transforming our existing theaters;

●

competition from other theater chains and restaurants;

●

our inability to operate profitably;

●

our dependence on a small number of suppliers for motion picture products;

●

our inability to manage fluctuations in attendance in the motion picture exhibition industry;

●

our inability to address the increased use of alternative film delivery methods or other forms of entertainment;

●

our inability to control for a change in the type and breadth of movies offered by motion picture studios and the appeal of such movies to our demographic base;

●

our ability to serve menu items that appeal to our guests and to avoid food safety problems;

●

our ability to address issues associated with entering into long-term non-cancelable leases;

●

our inability to protect against security breaches of confidential guest information;

●

our inability to manage our growth;

●

our inability to maintain sufficient levels of cash flow, or access to capital, to meet growth expectations;

●

our inability to regain compliance with NASDAQ listing standards;

●

our failure to meet any operational and financial performance guidance we provide to the public; and

●

our ability to compete and succeed in a highly competitive and evolving industry.

Although the forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations, taking into account all information currently available to us, we cannot guarantee future transactions, results, performance, achievements or outcomes. No assurance can be made to any investor by anyone that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements will be attained. Should one or more of the risks or uncertainties referred to above and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove to be incorrect, our actual results may vary in material and adverse respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

NOTE 1 — Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

IPIC Entertainment Inc. (“IPIC”) was formed as a Delaware corporation on October 18, 2017. IPIC was formed for the purpose of completing an initial public offering (“IPO”) and related transactions in order to carry on the business of IPIC-Gold Class Entertainment, LLC (“IPIC-Gold Class”) and its subsidiaries. Additionally, IPIC-Gold Class Holdings LLC (“Holdings”) was formed as a Delaware limited liability company on December 22, 2017, to hold the equity interests in IPIC-Gold Class. IPIC is the sole managing member of Holdings, and Holdings is the sole managing member of IPIC-Gold Class and its subsidiaries. Holdings is consolidated as part of IPIC. The assets and liabilities of Holdings represent substantially all of our consolidated assets and liabilities. IPIC and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to throughout the consolidated financial statements and related notes as the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying (a) unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, which has been derived from audited financial statements that included explanatory going concern language in the independent registered public accounting firm’s report accompanying those statements, and (b) the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10–Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2019, the results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 and the cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10–K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

New Accounting Standards

As an emerging growth company, the Company has elected the option to defer the effective date for adoption of new or revised accounting guidance. This option allows the Company to adopt new guidance on the effective date for entities that are not public business entities.

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). The purpose of ASU 2014-09 is to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and create a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2014-09 affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, insurance contracts or lease contracts). The following subsequent Accounting Standards Updates either clarified or revised guidance set forth in ASU 2014-09:

●

In August 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”). ASU 2015-14 deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 for public business entities and for all other entities subsequent to December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company has adopted the new standard in the first quarter of 2019.

●

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenues Gross versus Net) (“ASU 2016-08”). The purpose of ASU 2016-08 is to clarify the implementation of revenue recognition guidance for principal versus agent considerations.

●

In April 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“ASU 2016-10”). The purpose of ASU 2016-10 is to clarify certain aspects of identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation guidance.

●

In May 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU 2016-12”). The purpose of ASU 2016-12 is to address certain narrow aspects of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 including assessing collectability, presentation of sales taxes, noncash considerations, contract modifications and completed contracts at transition.

●

In December 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-20, Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2016-20”). The purpose of ASU 2016-20 is to amend certain narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2014-09 related to the disclosure of performance obligations, as well as other amendments related to loan guarantee fees, contract costs, refund liabilities, advertising costs and the clarification of certain examples.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-04, Liabilities-Extinguishments of Liabilities (Subtopic 405-20). This amendment provides a narrow scope exception to Liabilities-Extinguishment of Liabilities (Subtopic 405-20) that requires breakage for those liabilities to be accounted for in accordance with the breakage guidance in Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Under the new guidance, if an entity expects to be entitled to a breakage amount for a liability resulting from the sale of a prepaid stored-value product, the entity shall derecognize the amount related to the expected breakage in proportion to the pattern of rights expected to be exercised by the product holder only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of the recognized breakage amount will not subsequently occur. If an entity does not expect to be entitled to a breakage amount for a prepaid stored-value product, the entity shall derecognize the amount related to the breakage when the likelihood of the product holder exercising its remaining rights becomes remote. The Accounting Standards Update is effective for public business entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has adopted the new standard in the first quarter of 2019.

NOTE 2 — REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue Recognition Policy

Food and beverage revenue is our largest source of revenue. This includes all food and beverage sales within our restaurants, theaters and bars. Food revenues refer to food and non-alcoholic beverages, and food offerings vary based on regional preferences and concepts as described in our restaurant brands section. Beverage revenues refer to alcoholic beverages sold within our locations, all of which are fully licensed.

Theater revenue is our second largest source of revenue. We predominantly license first-run films from major distributors through direct negotiation. All of our theaters are equipped to offer content in 2D and 3D format. Theater revenue depends largely on the timing and popularity of films released by distributors, so revenues attributed to any one particular distributor can vary significantly from year to year based on content. Theater revenue includes revenue from all sponsorship activities, advertising, rental of auditoriums for private functions, live shows, gaming events, academy screenings, corporate functions, corporate rentals, other revenue-generating showings, and other fees. Other Revenue includes membership revenue, bowling, parking and valet, and gift card breakage.

The Company recognizes food and beverage revenue at the point of sale. Theater revenue is recognized at the time tickets are remitted to the theater for admission. These performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time when the customer obtains control of the goods, which generally occurs at or near the same time the transaction was initiated for food and beverage or upon showing of the movie for which an admission ticket was purchased. The proceeds from advance ticket sales and the sale of gift certificates and gift cards are deferred and recognized as revenues once the respective admission ticket that was purchased in advance or gift certificate or gift card is received or tendered at the theaters.

The Company is required to collect certain taxes from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit these to the applicable government agencies on a periodic basis. These taxes are legal assessments on the customer and the Company has a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. Because the Company does not retain these taxes, the Company does not include such amounts in revenues. The Company records a liability when the amounts are collected and relieves the liability when payments are made to the applicable government agencies.

The Company maintains a membership program, whereby members earn and accrue points based on purchases, which are redeemable on future purchases of tickets or food and beverage. For every dollar a member spends, the member receives one point which is equal to one cent. Points are redeemable once a member earns 500 points or greater. The Company uses the deferred revenue model which results in the transaction price being allocated to the products and services sold and the award credits, with revenue recognized as each element is delivered. The portion of the theater and food and beverage revenues attributed to the rewards is deferred as a reduction of theater and food and beverage revenues, respectively. Upon redemption, deferred rewards are recognized as revenues along with associated cost of goods. The Company charges an annual fee for this membership program, which is recorded as deferred revenue and recognized over the duration of the twelve-month membership period the customer is receiving the benefits. The revenue from the annual fee is included in other revenues in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company sells gift cards to customers at its locations and through its website. There are no administrative fees charged nor do the gift cards have an expiration date. Revenues from gift cards are recognized when gift cards are redeemed. In addition, the Company recognizes “breakage” on unredeemed gift cards based upon historical redemption patterns and the time that has transpired since the card was last used. The Company recognizes breakage proportionally to the percentage of redemptions that historically occur in each year after a gift card is sold. Revenue from gift card breakage is included in other revenues in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Adoption of ASC Topic 606

The Company adopted ASC 606 on January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective method; therefore, the comparative information has not been adjusted for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Company has completed its analysis and concluded the adoption of ASC 606 did not materially impact the timing of revenue recognition for food and beverage revenue, theater revenue, membership rewards program, other revenue streams, including revenues for unredeemed gift cards and advance ticket sales.

After a detailed review of first generation (Generation I) locations, the Company decided against reinvestment at its Glendale, Wisconsin location, where the Bayshore Mall was placed into receivership. The Company instead announced the closing of this location effective March 8, 2018. The decision to close the location was made during an all-hands conference call on March 5, 2018. The events giving rise to that decision include the mall entering receivership during the last quarter of 2017 and the underperformance of the site during the first quarter of 2018. The Company evaluated the long-lived assets at its Glendale location at December 31, 2017 and determined that the long-lived assets with a carrying value of $428 were no longer recoverable. Consequently, the assets were written down to $0.

The remaining minimum lease obligation at the date of closure was approximately $4,100 over the next six years.

The Company has established a liability of $1,839 for the remaining lease obligation associated with the Glendale location in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The current portion of the lease liability is included with “Accrued expenses” and the long-term portion is included in “Other long-term liabilities”. As of March 31, 2019, the future lease obligation was recorded at present value and discounted at an annual rate of 13%. Sublease payments were anticipated to be received 24 months from the abandonment date. The sublease payments were estimated to be 50% less than the Company’s lease payment obligation through the remainder of the lease.

The Company capitalizes interest costs on borrowings incurred during the new construction or upgrade of qualifying assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred interest costs totaling $4,988 and $4,614 respectively, of which $156 and $0 was capitalized, respectively.

NOTE 4 — BORROWINGS

Long-Term Debt — Related Party

The Company has a $225,828 non-revolving credit facility (the “Non-revolving Credit Facility”) with the Teachers’ Retirement System of Alabama (the “TRSA”) and The Employees’ Retirement System of Alabama (the “ERSA”) (the TRSA and the ERSA are known collectively as the “RSA”). The terms of the facility provide that the Company can borrow under the facility for a thirteen-year period commencing September 30, 2010 in three tranches (hereinafter, “Tranche 1”, “Tranche 2”, and “Tranche 3”). Proceeds of the loans were initially to be used for up to 80% of eligible construction costs. As a condition to any advance, the Company was required to provide funding for the applicable project costs in an amount equal to 25% of such advance, with the proceeds of either (x) contributions to the Company from certain shareholders (other than RSA) or (y) subordinated loans to the Company from certain shareholders (other than RSA) (the “Matching Requirement”). In addition, the remaining availability required the Company to achieve certain operating targets to continue borrowing (the “Operating Target Requirement”). On June 22, 2018 the Non-revolving Credit Facility was modified to remove the matching requirement and to permit us to borrow up to $17,923 on five planned remodeling projects. An amount equal to eighty percent (80%) of the total costs to develop each project constitutes a “Project Tranche”. Any changes to the amount of a Project Tranche (either increases or decreases) are subject to prior written consent from the lender. On June 29, 2018 the Non-revolving Credit Facility was further modified to permit us to borrow funds up to $8,233 for working capital expenses (including, among other things, accrued interest on the Non-revolving Credit Facility, which may be paid in kind), in addition to the borrowing for planned 2018 remodeling projects. On June 29, 2018 the Non-revolving Credit Facility was amended to remove the Operating Target Requirement for planned remodeling and working capital advances.

The Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 commitment amounts of $15,828 and $24,000 respectively, were fully borrowed against as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Of the total commitment amounts of $186,000 available in Tranche 3, $163,738 and $148,433 were borrowed as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, $22,262 remained available to borrow from Tranche 3 for the planned remodels and new construction, as well as, working capital requirements subject to certain limitations.

The effective interest rate on Tranche 1 and Tranche 2 borrowings is approximately 6.95% per annum. The cumulative difference between the interest computed using the stated interest rates (8.00% at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018) and the effective interest rate of 6.95% is $532 and $621 at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, and is recorded in “Accrued interest - long-term” in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The interest rate on Tranche 3 borrowings is fixed at 10.50% per annum.

Short-Term Financing

The Company periodically enters into short-term financing arrangements to finance the costs of its property and casualty insurance premiums. The loans are due in equal monthly installments of principal and interest, generally paid over a period of less than one year. Interest accrues on the unpaid principal at 3.63% per annum. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s obligation under premium financing arrangements was $1,177 and $1,392, respectively, and is included in accrued insurance in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 5 — DEFICIT

Incentive stock options

The following is a summary of the Company’s Non-Qualified Options (as defined by Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, “Options”) activity:

	Options			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Option		Weighted Average Exercise Price per Option
Outstanding - December 31, 2018		1,040,424		$	4.31	$	16.80

Exercisable – March 31, 2019		343,598		$	3.77	$	14.17

At March 31, 2019, the total intrinsic value of the Options outstanding and exercisable was $0. As of March 31, 2019, the weighted average remaining contractual term of Options outstanding was 9 years.

A total of 142,898 Options were vested as of March 31, 2019.

The Company recognized an aggregate of $266 and $322 in compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to the Options. At March 31, 2019, unrecognized stock-based compensation was $2,984 for the Options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining life of approximately 2.38 years.

Restricted stock units

On December 6, 2017 IPIC granted 483,864 Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) to our named executive officers and certain other employees. The awards contained no future service requirement and fully vested when the IPO occurred. Therefore, on February 1, 2018, the Company recognized compensation expense related to these RSUs of $8,235. The average grant date fair value of the RSUs was $17.02 per unit. At March 31, 2019 there was no unrecognized compensation costs related to the RSUs.

The RSUs will remain outstanding until the issuance of Class A shares on the different settlement dates. On May 15, 2018 247,755 of the RSUs were exchanged for Class A shares. On June 29, 2018 14,770 of the RSUs were exchanged for Class A shares. The remaining 221,339 RSUs will be exchanged for Class A shares on May 15, 2019.

Stock issuance

In accordance with the Holdings LLC Agreement, on July 12, 2018, each of Village Roadshow, Teachers’ Retirement System of Alabama and Employees’ Retirement System of Alabama assigned 100% of its respective membership units of Holdings to IPIC in exchange for a corresponding number of shares of IPIC’s Class A Common Stock (2,801,433 shares, 1,876,960 shares and 924,473 shares of Class A Common Stock, respectively) (the “Exchange”). As part of the Exchange and in accordance with IPIC’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, each such investor’s Class B common stock were canceled.

Litigation

The Company is exposed to litigation in the normal course of business.

From time to time, the Company may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm the Company’s business.

The Company currently is a defendant in a class action lawsuit captioned Mary Ryan and Johanna Nielson v. IPIC-Gold Class Entertainment, LLC, Case # BC 688633, which was filed in Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, on December 29, 2017. This lawsuit asserts failure to pay minimum wage, pay overtime wages, provide meal breaks and rest periods, and provide accurate itemized wage statements with respect to certain workers. On February 6, 2019, the parties reached a preliminary agreement to settle the lawsuit for $1,500. The parties are in the process of negotiating a settlement agreement for submission to the court for preliminary approval of the settlement. The $1,500 expense was recorded at December 31, 2018 and still remains outstanding as of March 31, 2019.

Other than the lawsuit described above in consultation with legal counsel, the Company is currently not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that it believes could have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, operating results or cash flows. However, lawsuits or any other legal or administrative proceeding, regardless of the outcome, may result in diversion of resources, including management’s time and attention.

We file U.S federal and state income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. As of March 31, 2019, the 2015 through 2018 tax years generally remain subject to examination by federal and most state tax authorities. The use of net operating losses generated in tax years prior to 2013 may also subject returns for those years to examination. The Company currently does not have any income tax audits in process.

As of December 31, 2018, our federal and state net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes were $13,841. Due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, the Federal operating loss carryforwards generated in 2018 do not expire.

We evaluate the realizability of our deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and establish valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset may not be realized. As of March 31, 2019, we concluded, based on the weight of all available positive and negative evidence, that all our deferred tax assets do not meet the more likely than not threshold to be realized. As such, a full valuation allowance was recognized of $12,865 The net change in valuation allowance for the quarter ending March 2019 was an increase of $2,422.

Pursuant to our election under Section 754 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), we expect to obtain an increase in our share of the tax basis in the net assets of Holdings when LLC Interests are redeemed or exchanged by the non-controlling interest holders and other qualifying transactions. We intend to treat any redemptions and exchanges of LLC Interests by the non-controlling interest holders as direct purchases of LLC Interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that we would otherwise pay in the future to various tax authorities. They may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets.

NOTE 8 — GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLAN REGARDING FUTURE OPERATIONS

The Company incurred a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 of $14,936. In addition, the Company’s liabilities exceeded its assets by $133,891 and the Company had a working capital deficit of $15,026 at March 31, 2019.

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3,562 at March 31, 2019 and used $1,341 in cash for operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going-concern is dependent on refinancing of existing debt or obtaining additional equity. The main sources of funding are expected to be the RSA Non-revolving Credit Facility and new financing.

Management believes that growth into new locations is critical to the Company’s ability to achieve profitability and generate cash from operating activities. Management considers the continued availability of the Non-revolving Credit Facility and obtaining new financing to be significant to its ability to satisfy its payment obligations as they become due, including but not limited to, planned remodeling of existing locations, construction of new locations and funding operations.

To meet our capital and operating needs, the Company is considering multiple alternatives, including, but not limited to, equity financings, debt financings and other funding transactions, as well as restructuring of its outstanding indebtedness and operational changes to increase revenues and contain costs. No assurance can be given that any future financing, funding transaction or restructuring will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on operations in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for stockholders in the case of equity financing.

Additionally, we are required to comply with Securities and Exchange Commission and NASDAQ rules and requirements when raising capital, which may make it more difficult for us to raise significant amounts of capital. If we cannot raise needed funds, we might be forced to make substantial reductions in our operating expenses, which could adversely affect our ability to implement our business plan and ultimately our viability as a company.

Management has determined that these conditions and events raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

NOTE 9 — NET LOSS PER SHARE

The Company computed net loss per share only for the period our common stock was outstanding during 2018, referred to as the “Post-IPO Period”. We have defined the Post-IPO Period as February 1, 2018, the date our shares began trading on the NASDAQ, through March 31, 2018, or 59 days of activity for the reporting period ended March 31, 2018. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to Class A Common Stockholders for the Post-IPO Period by the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding during the Post-IPO Period. The weighted average number of Restricted Stock Units to be settled in shares of Class A Common Stock became fully vested on the IPO date. The Company analyzed the calculation of earnings per unit for periods prior to the IPO and determined that it resulted in values that would not be meaningful to the users of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Therefore, earnings per unit information has not been presented for periods prior to the IPO on February 1, 2018.

Diluted net loss per share is computed by adjusting the net loss available to Class A Common Stockholders and the weighted-average number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding to give effect to potentially dilutive securities. Shares of Class B Common Stock issued do not participate in earnings of the Company. As a result, the shares of Class B Common Stock are not considered participating securities and are not included in the weighted-average shares outstanding for purposes of computing net loss per share. Class B Common Stockholders have the option to exchange an equivalent number of LLC Interests of Holdings for Class A Common Stock of IPIC maintaining a one-to-one ratio. Therefore, the equivalent number of shares of Class A Common Stock could be issuable in exchange for the Class B Common Stockholders’ LLC Interests of Holdings.

Basic and diluted loss per share/unit for the period ended March 31, 2019:

	Three Months Ended March 2019			February 1, 2018 Through March 31, 2018

Net loss per Class A common share — basic and diluted	$	(1.26	)	$	(1.70	)

The Company has issued potentially dilutive instruments in the form of our Non-Qualified Options granted to our employees and directors. In addition, warrants were issued to selling agents upon completion of the IPO for services rendered. The Company did not include any of these instruments in its calculation of diluted net loss per share during the period because to include them would be anti-dilutive due to the Company’s loss from operations during the period.

The following table summarizes the types of potentially dilutive securities outstanding as of March 31, 2019:

	March 31, 2019

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

IPIC strives to be our guests’ favorite local destination for a night out on the town. Our newest locations blend three distinct areas — a polished-casual restaurant, a farm-to-glass full-service bar, and our world-class luxury theater auditoriums with in-theater dining — into a one-of-a-kind experience. Our team endeavors to deliver world class hospitality in innovative, one-of-a-kind theaters which we believe are among the finest in the world. Our chefs and mixologists create craveable food and drink offerings that are outstanding on a standalone basis, but it is the interplay between our entertainment, dining and full-service bar areas that is the defining feature of a typical four-hour guest experience. We thoughtfully design the layout, ambiance, and energy-flow of each unit to maximize the crossover between these activities. With constantly changing movie content and menu offerings, each visit is different, providing our customers with a reason to visit us repeatedly. We believe that we deliver an experience that is innovative, unique and cannot be easily replicated at home or elsewhere without the hassle of having to visit multiple destinations. Our locations also act as great venues for private events, family and business functions and other corporate-sponsored events. We believe our concept is well-positioned within today’s ever-increasing experiential economy. We believe that we pioneered the concept of polished-casual dining in a luxury theater auditorium and are one of the largest combined movie theater and restaurant entertainment destinations with locations engineered from the ground up to provide our guests with a luxurious movie-going experience at an affordable price.

Growth Strategies and Outlook

Our growth strategy consists of the following components:

Opening new IPIC locations. This is our greatest immediate opportunity for growth. We believe that we are still in the very nascent stage of our growth story. We currently operate 123 screens at 16 locations in 9 states with an additional 3 locations under construction and a pipeline of an additional 12 sites that either have a signed lease or are in lease negotiations. We believe that we currently control less than 0.5% market share of the theater business in the United States, based on data provided by the National Association of Theatre Owners and our financial results. We believe there is tremendous whitespace opportunity to expand in both existing and new U.S. markets, as well as overseas, and we have invested in our infrastructure through new hires at our home office to enable us to continue to grow with discipline. We have upgraded four Generation I locations and one Generation II location in 2018. On March 7, 2019 we opened a new location in Delray Beach, Florida and plan to open another domestic location in 2019. We will continue to pursue a disciplined new store growth strategy in both new and existing markets where we can achieve consistent high store revenues and attractive store-level cash-on-cash returns.

Growing our comparable-store sales. We intend to grow our comparable-store sales by continuing to differentiate the IPIC brand from other food and entertainment alternatives, through the following strategies:

●

Differentiate our food and beverage offering

●

Relentless efforts on hospitality

●

Grow usage of alternative content

●

Enhance brand awareness and drive incremental visits to our stores through innovative marketing and promotions

●

Grow our special events usage

Improving our margins. We believe we are well-positioned to increase margins and believe we have additional opportunities to reduce costs. Based on the operating leverage generated by our business model, which has been enhanced by operating initiatives implemented by management in recent years, we believe we have the potential to improve margins and deliver greater earnings from potential future increases in comparable-store sales. Under our current cost structure, we generally estimate that about 30% of any comparable-store sales growth that exceeds the cost of inflation in that store would flow through to our Adjusted EBITDA. We also believe that improved labor scheduling technology will allow us to increase labor productivity in the future. We believe that our continued focus on operating margins at individual locations and the deployment of best practices across our store base is expected to yield incremental margin efficiencies.

Key Performance Indicators

We monitor and analyze many key performance measures to manage our business and evaluate financial and operating performance. These measures include:

New store openings. Our ability to expand our business and reach new customers is influenced by the opening of additional IPIC locations in both new and existing markets. The success of our new IPIC locations is indicative of our brand appeal and the efficacy of our site selection and operating models. On March 7^th, 2019 we opened our 16^th location in Delray Beach, FL. We plan to open one additional site in 2019 in Irvine, CA, and we have recently signed leases for new sites in Atlanta, GA, Hicksville, NY and McLean, VA.

Comparable-store sales. Comparable-store sales are a year-over-year comparison of sales at IPIC locations open at the end of the period which have been open for at least 12 months prior to the start of such quarterly period. It is a key performance indicator used within the industry and is indicative of acceptance of our initiatives as well as local economic and consumer trends. Our comparable stores consisted of 14 and 15 stores at the end of March 2018 and March 2019, respectively. From period to period, comparable-store sales are generally impacted by attendance and average spend per person. Spend per person is, in turn, composed of pricing and sales-mix changes.

Store-Level margins. Store-level margins are total revenues less store-level expenses consisting of food and beverage cost of goods sold, box office and other income costs of goods sold, labor costs, occupancy expenses and other operating expenses.

Store-level cash-on-cash returns. We target our new locations, which are approximately 40,000 square feet, to achieve year three store-level cash-on-cash returns in excess of 20%. Cash-on-cash returns are defined by Store-level EBITDA divided by net development costs. Net development costs are defined by gross development costs less landlord contributions. To achieve this return, we target a ratio of year 3 store revenues to net development costs in excess of 1.00 and individual IPIC Store-level EBITDA margins in excess of 15%. We do not always achieve these target figures due to factors both within and outside of our control.

Financial Overview

Revenue: Total revenue consists of food and beverage, theater and other revenues. Our revenue growth is primarily influenced by the number of new IPIC locations and growth in comparable store revenues.

Food and Beverage Revenue is our largest source of revenue. This includes all food and beverage sales within our restaurants, theaters and bars. Food revenues refer to food and non-alcoholic beverages, and food offerings vary based on regional preferences and restaurant concepts. Beverage revenues refer to alcoholic beverages sold within our locations, all of which are fully licensed.

Theater Revenue is our second largest source of revenue. We predominantly license first-run films from major distributors through direct negotiation. All of our theaters are equipped to offer content in 2D and 3D format. Theater revenue depends largely on the timing and popularity of films released by distributors, so revenues attributed to any one particular distributor can vary significantly from year to year based on content. Theater revenue includes revenue from all sponsorship activities, advertising, rental of auditoriums for private functions, live shows, gaming events, academy screenings, corporate functions, corporate rentals, other revenue-generating showings, and other fees.

Other Revenue includes membership revenue, parking and valet revenue, and gift card breakage.

Cost of food and beverage: Food and beverage costs are driven by supplier pricing movements and product mix. We continually strive to negotiate favorable pricing, select high-quality products, and monitor and control the use of our food and beverage products optimally.

Cost of theater: Film rental fees are paid based on box office receipts and are ordinarily paid from 20 to 35 days following receipt. These fees are negotiated directly with distributors and vary from film to film. We maintain strong relationships with the top film distributors, and our film buying group has decades of experience in the industry.

Period-to-Period Comparisons

We have incurred net losses and currently have negative cash flows from operating activities. We anticipate this to continue in the near term as we continue to focus our efforts on expanding our customer base and theater locations.

Three months ended March 31, 2019 versus March 31, 2018

Revenues

Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased by $8.5 million to $30.2 million, which represented a 22.0% decrease in total revenue as compared to $38.7 million of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2018, due to a decrease in attendance. The $8.5 million decrease in revenue was derived from the following sources: (i) $0.3 million from a net decrease in year-over-year revenue from non-comparable stores and in other revenue; and (ii) an $8.2 million or 21.7% decrease in comparable-store sales due to a decrease in attendance.

Cost of Food and Beverage

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, cost of food and beverage decreased by $1.4 million to $4.1 million (or to 26.1% of applicable revenue) from $5.5 million (or 27.5% of applicable revenue) in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease in food and beverage costs as a percent of applicable sales was driven by a same-store margin improvement of 144 basis points.

Cost of Theater

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, cost of theater decreased by $2.1 million to $5.6 million (or to 39.7% of applicable revenue) from $7.7 million (or 43.3% of applicable revenue) in the three months ended March 31, 2018. Cost of theater decreased as a percentage of applicable sales due largely to the differing mix of films between the two periods.

Operating Payroll and Benefits

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, operating payroll and benefits decreased by $1.5 million to $9.1 million (or to 30.1% of total revenue) from $10.6 million (or 27.4% of total revenue) in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease in operating payroll and benefits was driven by a weak Q1 film slate, which also caused an increase in operating payroll and benefits as a percent of revenue due to deleverage.

Occupancy Expenses

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, occupancy expenses increased by $0.2 million to $4.9 million (or to 16.2% of total revenue) from $4.7 million (or 12.1% of total revenue) in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in occupancy expenses was derived from a $0.2 million increase in occupancy expenses at comparable stores.

Other Operating Expenses

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, other operating expenses decreased by $2.0 million to $5.6 million (or to 18.5% of total revenue) from $7.6 million (or 19.6% of total revenue) in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease in other operating expenses was derived primarily from: (i) a $1.4 million decrease in other operating expenses at comparable stores due to elimination of temporary staging required for live shows; and (ii) a $0.5 million decrease in non-recurring charges to $0.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $0.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018 due to lower repair and maintenance spend.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel, facilities and professional expenses for the various departments of our corporate headquarters. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, general and administrative expenses decreased by $8.0 million to $5.1 million (or 16.9% of total revenue) from $13.1 million (or 33.9% of total revenue) in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was driven by a reduction in equity-based compensation of $8.3 million compared to the prior year period. Equity-based compensation was $8.6 million in the prior year period due to Non-Qualified Options and Restricted Stock Units issued to employees as part of the IPO on February 1, 2018.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization expense includes the depreciation of property and equipment. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, depreciation and amortization expense was $4.8 million, which did not change compared to the prior year period amount of $4.8 million.

Pre-Opening Expenses

Pre-opening expenses include costs associated with the opening and organizing of new stores, including pre-opening rent, staff training and recruiting, and travel costs for employees engaged in such pre-opening activities. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, pre-opening expenses increased by $1.1 million to $1.1 million from $0.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018. This increase is attributable to the opening of the new location in Delray Beach, Florida on March 7, 2019.

Loss on Abandonment of Lease

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, loss on abandonment of lease decreased by $1.8 million to $0.0 million from $1.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The amount in the prior year period was due to $1.8 million in costs associated with lease abandonment at our former Glendale, WI location.

Interest Expense

Interest expense includes the cost of our debt obligations, including the amortization of loan fees and any interest income earned. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, interest expense increased by $0.2 million to $4.8 million from $4.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in interest expense was a result of higher debt levels associated with the Non-revolving Credit Facility for full-period financing charges associated with our newest locations.

Income Tax Expense

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, income tax expense remained consistent with the income tax expense in the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate due to non-controlling interest, changes in the tax valuation allowance, state income taxes and the impact of certain expenses which are not deductible for income tax purposes.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements other than operating leases.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Based upon our working capital deficiency of $15.0 million and net asset deficit of $133.9 million, as of March 31, 2019, we require and are actively exploring restructuring of our indebtedness, additional equity and/or debt financing to continue our operations.

As of May 17, 2019, we had outstanding $203.6 million of indebtedness under our Non-Revolving Credit Facility. In the next twelve months we are obligated to pay interest in an aggregate amount of $21.1 under the Non-Revolving Credit Facility, with a payment of approximately $10.1 million due on July 1, 2019 and a payment of approximately $11.0 million on January 1, 2020. As a result of our working capital deficit and our current liquidity position, we expect to draw down a substantial portion of the remaining principal balance of the Non-Revolving Credit Facility to make the interest payment due on July 1, 2019. If we are not able to improve our liquidity position prior to the January 1, 2020 interest payment due date for our Non-Revolving Credit Facility, we may not have sufficient available cash to pay the interest due on January 1, 2020. As a result, we may be required to seek a waiver or forbearance from our lenders in order to avoid a default under the Non-Revolving Credit Facility. We are actively seeking to raise additional capital and/or restructure our outstanding indebtedness under our Non-Revolving Credit Facility in order to avoid a default. We may retain one or more advisors to assist us in connection with raising capital and/or restructuring our indebtedness. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in doing so. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Additionally, we are required to comply with SEC and Nasdaq rules and requirements when raising capital, which may make it more difficult for us to raise significant amounts of capital. If we cannot raise needed funds or restructure our outstanding indebtedness, we might be forced to make substantial reductions in our operating expenses, which could adversely affect our ability to implement our business plan and ultimately our viability as a company.

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, working capital decreased by $0.3 million, to a deficiency of $15.0 million, compared to a deficiency of $14.7 million at December 31, 2018. This increase stemmed from additional working capital utilized from the opening of the new location in Delray Beach, Florida.

Summary of Cash Flows

Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have been cash on hand, contributions from owners and the Non-Revolving Credit Facility. Aside from capital expenditures, our primary requirements for liquidity are for lease obligations, debt service on our Non-Revolving Credit Facility, working capital and general corporate needs. Guests pay for their food and beverage purchases in cash or on debit or credit cards at the time of the sale and we are able to sell many of our inventory items before payment is due to the supplier of such items.

The following table and discussion presents, for the periods indicated, a summary of our key cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $1.3 million and $10.6 million, respectively. The increase in cash flows from operating activities for the 2019 period as compared to the 2018 period was due to changes in amortization of deferred rent and interest paid in kind.

Investing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, net cash in the amount of $7.2 million was used in investing activities, while during the three months ended March 31, 2018, net cash used in investing activities was $3.6 million. The increase in cash used in investing activities was mainly attributed to construction of our newest site in Delray Beach, FL.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $6.1 million and $17.1 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, $6.5 million of financing was provided by borrowings on long term debt. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, $13.6 million of financing was provided by the issuance of common stock sold in the initial public offering.

Critical Accounting Policies

We make certain judgments and use certain estimates and assumptions when applying accounting principles in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The nature of the estimates and assumptions are material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain factors or the susceptibility of such factors to change. We have identified the accounting for going concern, long-lived assets, income taxes and stock-based compensation as critical accounting estimates, as they are the most important to our financial statement presentation and require difficult, subjective and complex judgments.

We believe the current assumptions and other considerations used to estimate amounts reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are appropriate. However, if actual experience differs from the assumptions and other considerations used in estimating amounts reflected in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the resulting changes could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations and, in certain situations, could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition.

For further information on our critical accounting estimates, see Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the Notes to our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. There has been no material change to these estimates for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 1 “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Certain financial measures presented in this Form 10-Q, such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Store-Level EBITDA are not recognized under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which we refer to as “GAAP.” We define these terms as follows:

●

“EBITDA” means, for any reporting period, net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization.

●

“Adjusted EBITDA” is a supplemental measure of our performance and is also the basis for performance evaluation under our executive compensation programs. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include, among other things, equity-based compensation expense, pre-opening expenses, other income and loss on disposal of property and equipment, impairment of property and equipment as well as certain non-recurring charges. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of expenses that do not relate to our ongoing business performance.

●

“Store-Level EBITDA” is a supplemental measure of our performance which we believe provides management and investors with additional information to measure the performance of our locations, individually and as an entirety. Store-Level EBITDA is defined by us as EBITDA adjusted for pre-opening expenses, other income, loss on disposal of property and equipment, impairment of property and equipment, non-recurring charges, and general and administrative expense. We use Store-Level EBITDA to measure operating performance and returns from opening new stores. We believe that Store-Level EBITDA is another useful measure in evaluating our operating performance because it removes the impact of general and administrative expenses, which are not incurred at the store level, and the costs of opening new stores, which are non-recurring at the store-level, and thereby enables the comparability of the operating performance of our stores for the periods presented. We also believe that Store-Level EBITDA is a useful measure in evaluating our operating performance within the entertainment and dining industry because it permits the evaluation of store-level productivity, efficiency and performance, and we use Store-Level EBITDA as a means of evaluating store financial performance compared with our competitors.

You are encouraged to evaluate the adjustments we have made to GAAP financial measures and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and Store-Level EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur income and expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this Form 10-Q.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Store-Level EBITDA are included in this Report because they are key metrics used by management and our board of directors to assess our financial performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Store-Level EBITDA is utilized to measure the performance of our locations, both individually and in entirety.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Store-Level EBITDA are not GAAP measures of our financial performance or liquidity and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) as a measure of financial performance or cash flows from operations as measures of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Our presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Store-Level EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Additionally, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Store-Level EBITDA are not intended to be measures of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as they do not reflect tax payments, debt service requirements, capital expenditures, IPIC openings and certain other cash costs that may recur in the future, including, among other things, cash requirements for working capital needs and cash costs to replace assets being depreciated and amortized. Management compensates for these limitations by relying on our GAAP results in addition to using EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Our measures of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Store-Level EBITDA are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation.

As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated, as of March 31, 2019, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Rules 13a–15(e) and 15d –15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Exchange Act). In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Based on their evaluation, as of March 31, 2019, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer conclude that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below.

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As disclosed in the prior year Form 10-K as of December 31, 2017, we have identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. In 2018, management remediated the improperly designed information technology controls, as discussed further below. However, we consider the other material weaknesses identified in the prior year to remain as of March 31, 2019, as described further below:

	●	We do not have an effective control environment because we do not have formalized internal control policies and procedures. Specifically, the Company has not yet designed an effective system of internal control over financial reporting.

	●	We also identified material weaknesses related to our lack of adequate review of complex accounting matters. Specifically, we have not yet designed precise enough review controls in order to identify material misstatements relating to complex accounting matters, including review controls over the preparation of our long-lived asset impairment evaluation and other areas.

	●	We also identified material weaknesses relating to improperly designed period end financial reporting controls. Specifically, we have not yet designed suitable review controls governing the review of financial statements and accounting records. Additionally, the Company does not have adequate review controls over our periodic financial reporting including maintaining sufficient monitoring controls over the recording of journal entries and maintaining sufficient segregation of duties.

The control deficiencies described above created a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis and therefore we concluded that the deficiencies represent material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2018.

We are implementing measures designed to improve our internal control over financial reporting to remediate these material weaknesses, including controls designed to require review of complex areas in a timely manner. In addition, we are designing and implementing improved processes and internal controls throughout the organization, including enhancing our control environment and redesigning and implementing controls over supervisory reviews by our management.

Management’s Remediation Plan

During the third and fourth quarters of 2018, with assistance from external consultants, management reviewed in detail all business processes impacting financial results. Financial reporting risks were identified for each process and controls were newly designed, updated or modified as necessary to address those risks. New and enhanced internal controls were implemented throughout 2018, with the majority of the key controls being implemented in the third and fourth quarter. However, management is unable to conclude that internal control over financial reporting is effective as of December 31, 2018 as a result of the material weaknesses described above.

The Company plans to execute the following steps in 2019 to remediate the aforementioned material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting:

	●	Continue to work with external consultants and train and retain individuals that have the appropriate skills and experience related to designing, operating and documenting internal control over financial reporting.

	●	Seek to attract, train and retain individuals that have the appropriate skills and experience related to complex accounting matters.

	●	Continue to enhance internal control policies and procedures developed and implemented during 2018 to ensure that a robust and effective internal control environment exists and persists across the organization; including ensuring effective risk assessments are performed to identify and assess necessary changes in the application of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, financial reporting processes and the design and effective operation of internal controls.

	●	Monitor compliance and continue to enhance policies and procedures developed and implemented during 2018 to ensure that information needed for financial accounting and reporting purposes and to support the performance of key controls is accurate, complete, relevant and reliable, and communicated in a timely manner.

	●	Continue to evaluate and enhance the Company’s monitoring activities to ensure the components of internal control are present and functioning related to all business processes.

	●	Continue to report regularly to the audit committee on the progress and results of the remediation plan, including the identification, status and resolution of internal control deficiencies.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Except as described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the first quarter of 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

The following risk factors are provided to supplement the risk factors of the Company previously disclosed under the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.

We may not have sufficient cash on hand to meet our debt service requirements under the Non-Revolving Credit Facility in the next twelve months.

As of May 17, 2019, we had outstanding $203.6 million of indebtedness under our Non-Revolving Credit Facility. In the next twelve months we are obligated to pay interest in an aggregate amount of $21.1 under the Non-Revolving Credit Facility, with a payment of approximately $10.1million due on July 1, 2019 and a payment of approximately $11.0 million on January 1, 2020. As a result of our working capital deficit and our current liquidity position, we expect to draw down a substantial portion of the remaining principal balance of the Non-Revolving Credit Facility to make the interest payment due on July 1, 2019. If we are not able to improve our liquidity position prior to the January 1, 2020 interest payment due date for our Non-Revolving Credit Facility, we may not have sufficient available cash to pay the interest due on January 1, 2020. As a result, we may be required to seek a waiver or forbearance from our lenders in order to avoid a default under the Non-Revolving Credit Facility. In the event we are unsuccessful in receiving a waiver or forbearance from our lenders and we default under the Non-Revolving Credit Facility, our lenders could accelerate the maturity of our indebtedness under the Non-Revolving Credit Facility and foreclose upon the property that is pledged to secure the Non-Revolving Credit Facility, which property includes substantially all the assets of iPic-Gold Class and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, together with 100% of the equity interests of iPic-Gold Class. If the lenders under the Non-Revolving Credit Facility accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness thereunder, we would not have sufficient assets to satisfy our obligations under the Non-Revolving Credit Facility or our other indebtedness. We are actively seeking to raise additional capital and/or restructure our outstanding indebtedness under our Non-Revolving Credit Facility in order to avoid a default. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in doing so.

We recently received a delisting notice from NASDAQ and if we do not regain compliance with Nasdaq listing standards will be delisted from NASDAQ.

On May 15, 2019, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market stating that for the 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the letter, we did not meet the minimum market value of listed securities of $35,000,000 required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), Nasdaq has provided us with 180 calendar days, or until November 11, 2019, to regain compliance. In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Nasdaq listing rules prior to the expiration of the compliance period, it will receive written notification that its securities are subject to delisting. Compliance can be achieved by meeting the market value of listed securities standard for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days during the 180 day compliance period ending November 11, 2019, of which there can be no assurance.

We had previously received a similar letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market on December 28, 2018 stating that we did not meet the minimum market value of listed securities required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), Nasdaq provided us with 180 calendar days to regain compliance. On March 12, 2019, we received notice from NASDAQ that for ten consecutive business days, the Company’s market value of listed securities had been $35,000,000 or greater and therefore the Company regained compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2). In addition, we transferred our Class A common stock from The Nasdaq Global Select Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market effective August 10, 2018. This transfer followed a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market dated May 9, 2018 notifying us that for the past 30 consecutive business days prior to the date of the letter, the Company did not meet the minimum market value of publicly held shares of $15,000,000 required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Select Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(3)(C).

There is no assurance that the Company will meet the minimum market value of listed securities for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) in the future or that we will continue to comply with other Nasdaq listing requirements. If our Class A Common Stock were to be delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market, the liquidity of our Class A Common Stock would be materially impacted, which would decrease the attractiveness of our common stock to investors and result in a decline in the market price of our common stock.

Use of Proceeds from Initial Public Offering of Class A Common Stock

On February 1, 2018, the Company completed its IPO of 1,248,159 shares of Class A Common Stock at an offering price of $18.50 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $15.1 million. The offer and sale of the shares of Class A Common Stock was made pursuant to an Offering Circular, dated January 30, 2018, which formed part of the Offering Statement on Form 1-A (File No. 024-10773), which was most recently qualified by the SEC on January 29, 2018. TriPoint Global Equities, LLC, working with its online division BANQ® (www.banq.co), was the Lead Managing Selling Agent for the IPO. Roth Capital Partners, LLC was the Institutional Placement Book-Running Agent. Telsey Advisory Group LLC was the Co-Manager for the offering. The initial public offering commenced on January 29, 2018 and terminated upon the closing.

The Company received net proceeds from the IPO of approximately $13.6 million, after deducting selling agent discounts and commission of approximately $1.1 million, but before offering expenses of $1.5 million. None of the selling agent discounts and commissions or other offering expenses were incurred by or paid to directors or officers of the Company or their associates or persons owning 10 percent or more of the Company’s common stock or to any of the Company’s affiliates.

The Company used the net proceeds from our IPO to purchase 7.32% of newly issued Common Units of Holdings. Holdings transferred the proceeds it received from the sale of such Common Units to IPIC-Gold Class. IPIC-Gold Class has used such proceeds for remodels prior to expected loan advances, as well as general corporate purposes, including opening new IPIC locations and renovating existing IPIC locations. As of March 31, 2019, all of the net proceeds from our IPO have been applied in the manner described above.
