Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Note 1 – Description of Business and Nature of Operations

Star Buffet, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “we” or “us”), is a multi-concept restaurant holding company. The Company was incorporated on July 28, 1997. AsAt ofMay ~~November 5~~20, ~~2018~~2019, the Company operated 2725 full-service restaurants. During the ~~third~~first quarter of fiscal year ending January 2827, ~~2019~~2020 (“Fiscal ~~2019~~2020”), the Company also had anfour ~~additional five~~ restaurants that were not in operation. ~~Three~~Two restaurants were closed for remodeling and repositioning, one was leased to a third-party operator and one was used as a warehouse. The Company’s restaurants operate under trade names which, ~~are~~with ~~owned~~only byone ~~the~~exception, ~~Company~~are ~~or licensed from others. Certain of the restaurant brands~~ owned ~~and operated~~ by the Company and include 4B’s Restaurants®, BuddyFreddys®, Barnhill’s Salads Buffet Desserts®, Casa Bonita®, ~~Pecos Diamond Steakhouse~~ and ~~Frosty~~JB’s ~~Freez~~Restaurant. The Company's restaurants are located in Arkansas, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Idaho, Mississippi, Montana, New Mexico, Texas, Utah and Wyoming. The Company has an executive office in Scottsdale, Arizona and anmanagement ~~accounting~~information ~~office~~systems in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”), the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2928, ~~2018~~2019 (the “~~2018~~2019 Form 10-K”). The accounting policies used in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements are the same as those described in the ~~2018~~2019 Form 10-K. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included.

a) Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the consolidated operations of the Company and its subsidiaries through ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019. The Company utilizes a 52/53 week fiscal year which ends on the last Monday in January. The first quarter of each fiscal year contains 16 weeks while the other three quarters each contain 12 weeks, except the fourth quarter has 13 weeks if the fiscal year has 53 weeks. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

b) Earnings or Loss Per Common Share

Basic earnings or loss per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods. Diluted earnings or loss per common share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents, if any, outstanding during the period. Dilutive stock options are considered to be common stock equivalents and are included in the diluted calculation using the treasury stock method. The Company did not have any dilutive stock options as of ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 or ~~November~~May 621, ~~2017~~2018.

c) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

●

Level 1 Inputs: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

●

Level 2 Inputs: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.

●

Level 3 Inputs: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of the Company’s notes receivable and long-term debt approximate fair value and are based on discounted cash flows using market rates at the balance sheet dates. The Company does not estimate the fair value of the note payable to its Chief Executive Officer because of the related party nature of the transaction.

d) Inventories

Inventories consist of food, beverages, gift shop items and certain restaurant supplies and are valued at the lower of cost or market, determined by the first-in, first-out method.

e) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with ~~Accounting~~ASC ~~Standards Codification~~ 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”. The Company assesses whether an impairment write-down is necessary whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment loss to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Any impairment is recognized as a charge to earnings, which would adversely affect operating results in the affected period.

Judgments made by the Company related to the expected useful lives of long-lived assets and the ability of the Company to realize undiscounted net cash flows in excess of the carrying amounts of such assets are affected by factors such as the ongoing maintenance and improvements of the assets, changes in economic conditions, and changes in operating performance. As the Company assesses the ongoing expected net cash flows and carrying amounts of its long-lived assets, these factors could cause the Company to realize a material impairment charge and could adversely affect operating results in any period. The Company ~~did~~recorded ~~not~~no ~~record~~ impairment ~~expense~~losses associated with certain restaurant facilities for the ~~twelve~~16 weeks ended ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~November~~May 621, ~~2017~~2018.

f) ~~Buildings~~Building and Equipment

~~Buildings~~Building and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:

	~~Years~~	Years
Buildings		40
Building				40
Leasehold improvements	15	-	~~20(1)~~15	-	20	(1)
Furniture, fixtures and equipment	5	-	85	-	8

(1)

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the life of the lease or the estimated economic life of the assets. The life of the lease includes renewal options determined by management at lease inception as reasonably likely to be exercised. If a previously scheduled lease option is not exercised, any remaining unamortized leasehold improvements would be required to be expensed immediately, which could result in a significant charge to operating results in that period.

Equipment in non-operating units or stored in warehouses, which is held for remodeling or repositioning, is depreciated and is recorded on the balance sheet as property, building and equipment held for future use.

Buildings and equipment placed on the market for sale is not depreciated and is recorded on the balance sheet as property held for sale and recorded at the lower of cost or market.

Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Major equipment refurbishments and remodeling costs are generally capitalized.

The Company's accounting policies regarding buildings and equipment include certain management judgments regarding the estimated useful lives of such assets and the residual values of such assets. These judgments and estimates may produce materially different amounts of depreciation and amortization expense than would be reported if different assumptions were used.

The components of property, buildings and equipment as of ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 consist of 2725 operating restaurant properties, one restaurant property that is leased to third party, ~~three~~two non-operating restaurants that remain closed for remodeling and repositioning and one non-operating property that is used as warehouse for equipment. The Company’s restaurant located in Kalispell, Montana that was temporarily closed due to fire damage reopened on June 29, 2018. The Company has settled with the insurance carrier regarding the Kalispell fire loss and recorded $10,000 in accounts receivable as of November 5, 2018. The components of property, buildings and equipment as of January 2928, ~~2018~~2019 consisted of 2526 operating restaurant properties, one restaurant property that is leased to a third party, ~~three~~two non-operating restaurants that remain closed for remodeling and repositioning and one non-operating property that is used as warehouse for equipment. The Company recorded depreciation expense of $~~451~~220,000 and $~~440~~183,000 for the ~~forty~~sixteen weeks ended ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~November~~May 621, ~~2017~~2018, respectively.

Other assets consist of deposits.

h) Intangible Assets

The Company’s intangible assets consist of trademarks as of ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 and January 2928, ~~2018~~2019. Trademark assets have an indefinite asset life. The Company assesses whether an intangible asset impairment write-down is necessary on annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.

i) Segment Reporting

All of the brands the Company operates are in the U.S. within the full-service restaurant industry and provide similar products to similar customers and, therefore, are considered to be one segment for reporting purposes. Sales to external customers are derived principally from food and beverage sales. We do not rely on any major customers as a source of sales.

j) Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue, net of discounts and incentives, when payment is tendered at the point of sale. We report revenue net of sales-related taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental taxing authorities. The Company defers all revenue on gift certificate sales until redeemed. The gift certificate liability is recorded in the Rent, licenses and other balance sheet account.

k) Income Taxes

Our current provision for income taxes is based on our estimated taxable income in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate, after considering the impact on our taxable income of temporary differences resulting from disparate treatment of items, such as depreciation, estimated liability for closed restaurants, estimated liabilities for self-insurance, tax credits and net operating losses (“NOL”) for tax and financial reporting purposes. Deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future income tax effect of temporary differences between the financial and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets are also provided for NOL and income tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance to reduce the carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is established when it is more likely than not that we will not realize some portion or all of the tax benefit of our deferred income tax assets. We evaluate, on a quarterly basis, whether it is more likely than not that our deferred income tax assets are realizable based upon recent past financial performance, tax reporting positions, and expectations of future taxable income. The determination of deferred tax assets is subject to estimates and assumptions. We periodically evaluate our deferred tax assets to determine if our assumptions and estimates should change. Currently, the Company has a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax asset, net of expected reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities.

l) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

~~During~~In ~~2014~~November ~~and 2015~~2018, the ~~Financial~~FASB issued Accounting Standards ~~Board~~Update (~~the~~ “~~FASB~~ASU”) ~~issued Accounting Standards Update 2014~~2018-0918 ~~and~~– ~~2015-14,~~Collaborative ~~Revenue~~Arrangements ~~from Contract with Customers~~ (Topic ~~606~~808), which ~~revises~~clarifies ~~previous revenue recognition standards to improve guidance on revenue recognition requirements.

This new guidance is~~ effective for ~~annual~~fiscal ~~reporting~~years ~~periods~~ beginning after December 15, ~~2017~~2019, ~~including~~and interim ~~reporting~~ periods within ~~that~~those ~~reporting~~fiscal ~~period~~years. ~~During~~The ~~the~~Company ~~16-weeks~~will ~~ending~~be ~~May~~required ~~21, 2018, we retrospectively adopted ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which requires an entity~~ to ~~recognize~~adopt ~~revenue~~this ~~when~~standard ~~it transfers promised goods or services to customers~~ in ~~an amount that reflects~~ the ~~consideration~~first toquarter ~~which~~of ~~the~~fiscal ~~entity~~year ~~expects~~2021. toThis bestandard ~~entitled~~is innot ~~exchange~~expected ~~for~~to ~~those goods or services. The adoption did not~~ have ana material impact on our consolidated ~~balance~~financial ~~sheets,~~ statements ofand ~~income, or cash flows. The primary impact of adoption was the enhancement of our disclosures~~ related ~~to revenue recognition as mentioned previously~~disclosures.

InSignificant ~~February 2016, the FASB issued~~ Accounting ~~Standards~~Policies Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This update requires a lessee to recognize on the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments and a corresponding right-of-use asset. The guidance also requires certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, which will require us to adopt these provisions in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. While early adoption is permitted, the Company has selected a transition date of January 29, 2019. We are evaluating the effect this new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

InAdoption ~~July~~of ~~2018,~~ASC ~~the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-11, Leases (~~Topic 842).: This update provides entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard. Under this method, an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Consequently, the prior comparative period’s financials will remain the same as those previously presented. Entities that elect this optional transition method must provide the disclosures that were previously required. The Company will adopt this transition method in the first quarter of fiscal 2020.Leases

The Company adopted ASU 2016-02- Leases (Topic 842) and related amendments, as of January 29, 2019, using the modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach provides a method for recording existing leases at adoption with a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings. The Company elected the package of practical expedients which permits the Company to not reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (3) any initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases as of the effective date. The Company also elected the practical expedient lease considerations to not allocate lease considerations between lease and non-lease components for real estate leases. As such, real estate lease considerations are treated as a single lease-component and accounted for accordingly.

The Company applied a portfolio approach to effectively account for the operating lease liabilities and operating lease assets; the Company does not have financing leases. The Company excludes leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the application of Topic 842.

Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities of $14.4 million and $15.3 million, respectively, on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of January 29, 2019. The difference between the approximate value of the operating lease assets and liabilities is attributable to deferred rent, deferred rent incentives, leasehold interests and prepaid rent. The cumulative change in the beginning accumulated deficit was $(501,000) due to the adoption of Topic 842. There was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations or consolidated statements cash flows. The Company’s comparative periods continue to be presented and disclosed in accordance with legacy guidance in Topic 840.

Operating Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Lease agreements will typically exist with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately.

The Company recognizes operating lease liabilities equal to the present value of the lease payments and operating lease assets representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company will use a secured incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease assets include any lease payments made prior to lease commencement and are reduced by any lease incentives.

Under Topic 842, for any new leases entered into, the Company will assess if it is reasonably certain to exercise lease options to extend or terminate the lease for inclusion (or exclusion) in the lease term when the Company measures the lease liability. The depreciable life of any assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term.

Certain of the Company’s operating leases include variable rental payments based on a percentage of sales over contractual levels. Variable rental payments are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. If such variable operating leases arise that include incentives from landlords in the form of cash, the Company will record the full amount of the incentive when specific performance criteria are met as a deferred liability. The deferred liability is amortized into income as a reduction of rent expense over the term of the applicable lease, including options to extend if they are reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company recognized those liabilities to be amortized within a year as a current liability and those greater than a year as a long-term liability. For purposes of recognizing these incentives and rental expenses on a straight-line basis, the Company uses the date it obtains the legal right to use and control the lease asset to begin amortization, which is generally when the Company takes possession of the asset. Please refer to Note 5 – Operating Leases in the Company’s Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for policies and disclosures related to leases.

Note 3 – Related Party Transactions

Robert E. Wheaton currently beneficially owns approximately 46.7% of our total equity securities and possesses approximately 46.7% of the total voting power. Thus Mr. Wheaton has the ability to control or significantly influence all matters requiring the approval of our stockholders, including the election of nominees to our board of directors. During fiscal 2008, the Company borrowed approximately $1,400,000 from Mr. Wheaton. In June 2008, the Company borrowed an additional $592,000 from Mr. Wheaton under the same terms. This resulted in an increase in the note balance from $1,400,000 to $1,992,000, the balance as of ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 and January 2928, ~~2018~~2019. The principal balance and any unpaid interest was due and payable in full on June 5, 2012. The loan was subsequently modified as a result of the Company’s bankruptcy filing, and pursuant to plan of reorganization approved by the Bankruptcy Court on December 17, 2012 (the “Bankruptcy Plan”), the principal balance was not eligible to be repaid until all obligations owed to other creditors have been fully satisfied. Interest accrued on the principal amount of $1,992,000 and the interest of $197,000 from September 28, 2011 to December 7, 2016 at the Bankruptcy Plan rate. When the Bankruptcy Court entered into a Final Decree and Order Closing the Bankruptcy Case of Star Buffet, Inc. on December 7, 2016 the Company reverted back to the original interest rate of 8.5%. The Company expensed $~~150~~60,000 to Mr. Wheaton for interest during the first ~~three~~ quarters of Fiscal ~~2019~~2020 and the ~~first three quarters~~ fiscal year ending January 2928, ~~2018~~2019 (“Fiscal ~~2018~~2019”).

On November 9, 2016, the Company borrowed $450,000 from Mr. Wheaton to remodel the 4B’ Restaurant in Missoula, Montana. The three-year fully amortized secured loan has monthly payments of $14,839 and interest rate of 11.5%. The Company paid Mr. Wheaton approximately $55,000 and $51,000 in principal during the first quarters of Fiscal 2020 and Fiscal 2019, respectively, under this mortgage. In addition, the Company paid approximately $5,000 and $8,000 in interest during the first quarters of Fiscal 2020 and Fiscal 2019, respectively.

Note 6 — Management Update – Operations

Management has added several new locations over the past few years. The Company has a net loss of $541,000 in the year end January 28, 2019 and a net loss of $660,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Management intends to and has focused on reducing costs and increasing earnings in Fiscal 2020. Management believes it can lower food and occupancy and other expenses in Fiscal 2020. Management expected a modest increase in labor costs due to the tight labor market and increases in the minimum wages in many of the state in which it operates. However, the labor increase was significant in first quarter of fiscal 2020. We do not expect material additional increases in labor costs for the remaining three quarters in fiscal 2020 since there are no significant scheduled minimum wages increases until January of 2020.We have also increased restaurant pricing in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Management intends to and deemed it probable to refinance long-term debt and sell some excess assets during the current fiscal year.

Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies

In connection with the employment contract with Mr. Wheaton, the Company has agreed to pay Mr. Wheaton three years of his salary plus bonus if he resigns related to a change of control, is terminated without cause or if he resigns for good reason.

On August 4, 2010, Spirit Master Funding, LLC (‘Spirit”), a landlord of a Company subsidiary, filed case number CV-2010-022169 in the Superior Court of the State of Arizona for the failure of the subsidiary to pay $3.7 million in rent and accelerated rent for four restaurants leased to the subsidiary. During the bankruptcy, Spirit filed a proof of claim as an unsecured creditor for approximately $1.5 million. On October 14, 2016, the Company settled the claim for $900,000 payable over five years at five percent interest. The outstanding balance was $498,000 and $525,000 as of May 20, 2019 and January 28, 2019, respectively. In May 2019 the Company settled a general liability case in Colorado.

In addition to the matter set forth above, from time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which, in management’s opinion, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the results of our operations or financial position.

Overview - The Company has a consolidated net income for the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018 of $83,000 or $0.03 per diluted share as compared with net income of $479,000 or $0.15 per diluted share for the 40-weeks ended November 6, 2017, a decrease of approximately $396,000 from the comparable prior fiscal year period. The decrease in net income was primarily from the result of approximately $356,000 decrease from income from operations due primarily to a $566,000 decrease in revenues and higher food and labor costs as a percentage of revenues.

Revenues - Total revenues decreased by approximately $566,000, or 2.6%, from $21.4 million in the 40-week period ended November 6, 2017 to $20.8 million in the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018. The decrease in revenues was primarily the result of an approximately $735,000 decrease in revenue from the closure of three restaurants of which two restaurants are temporarily closed and an approximately $1.1 million or 5.6% decrease in comparable same store sales. The decrease in revenues was partially offset by approximately $1.3 million attributable to the opening of two restaurants in Fiscal 2019, three restaurants in Fiscal 2018 and from the opening of one store closed due to a kitchen fire.

Food Costs - Food costs as a percentage of total revenues increased from 32.0% during the 40-week period ended November 6, 2017 to 32.3% during the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018. The food cost increased in the current fiscal year as compared to the same period in the prior year as a percentage of sales primarily from slightly higher wholesale costs in Fiscal 2019 as compared to Fiscal 2018. Food costs decreased by approximately $126,000 in the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018 compared to the same period ended November 6, 2017 primarily due a $566,000 decrease in revenues.

Labor - Labor costs as a percentage of total revenues increased from 37.0% during the 40-week period ended November 6, 2017 to 38.5% during the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018. The increase as a percentage of total revenues was primarily attributable to a higher minimum wages in the States of Arizona, Colorado, Florida and Montana and $566,000 in lower revenue in the first three quarters of Fiscal 2019 compared to the first three quarters of Fiscal 2018.

Occupancy and Other Expenses - Occupancy and other expenses as a percentage of total revenues remained the same at 20.5% during the 40-week period ended November 6, 2017 and during the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018. Occupancy and other expense decreased approximately $120,000 in the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018 primarily due to the decrease of $566,000 in revenues in the first three quarters of Fiscal 2019 compared the same period in Fiscal 2018.

General and Administrative Expenses - General and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenues decreased from 4.8% during the 40-week period ended November 6, 2017 to 4.5% during the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018.

The decrease as a percentage of total revenues was primarily due to a decrease in insurance and license expense partially offset by higher legal expense in the first three quarters of Fiscal 2019 compared the same period in Fiscal 2018.

Depreciation and Amortization - Depreciation and amortization expense increased from $440,000 during the 40-week period ended November 6, 2017 to $451,000 during the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to additional restaurants acquired.

Interest Expense - Interest expense decreased from $401,000 during the 40-week period ended November 6, 2017 to $383,000 during the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018.

Other Income - Other income consists primarily of rental income from the Company’s leased properties. Rental income was $128,000 for three properties leased for the 40-week period ended November 6, 2017. Rental income was $70,000 for two properties leased for the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018. Rental income was adversely impacted by the loss of one tenant.

Income Taxes - The income tax provision totaled $30,000 for the 40-week period ended November 6, 2017 and $30,000 for the 40-week period ended November 5, 2018.

The Company has full valuation against its existing deferred tax assets as of November 5, 2018.

Impact of Inflation

The impact of inflation on food, labor, equipment and construction and remodeling of restaurants could affect the Company’s margins. Many of the Company’s employees are paid hourly rates related to state minimum wage laws that are tied to inflation indexes so that changes in these laws would result in higher labor costs to the Company. In addition, food items purchased by the Company are subject to market supply and demand pressures. ~~Over~~The ~~time, the~~ Company believes that modest increases in these costs can be offset through price changes and other cost control efforts. However, inthere ~~periods~~is inno ~~which~~assurance ~~costs~~that ~~are increasing rapidly, such as~~ the ~~current period in which minimum wages have increased significantly in some states, the~~ Company iswould ~~generally~~be ~~not~~ able to pass significant costs on to its customers in a short period of time.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In recent years, the Company has financed operations through a combination of cash on hand, cash provided from operations and loans from our principal shareholders.

As of ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019, the Company had $~~122~~115,000 in cash. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $648,000 during the 4016-weeks ended ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019. The net working capital deficit was $45.04 million and $34.74 million at ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 and January 2928, ~~2018~~2019, respectively. ToWe ~~the~~will ~~extent that we~~ need to raise additional capital to grow our business, weand anticipate raising such capital through ~~some combination of~~ the issuance of common stock, preferred stock or debt. We have recently been borrowing required capital to grow our business from our principal ~~shareholder~~shareholders. We have no commitment from ~~this~~them ~~shareholder~~ to provide additional capital or assurance that ~~this~~they ~~shareholder~~ will voluntarily continue to provide capital as needed. We may be unable to raise additional capital as needed, orand ~~if successful,~~ we will likely be required to pay a ~~higher~~high price for ~~any~~ capital.

The Company generates cash flow daily from sales in its restaurants and manages its cash balances to meet its current operating obligations. The Company spent approximately $~~349~~69,000 on capital expenditures during the 4016-weeks ending ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019, primarily on existing restaurants. ~~The Company spent approximately $726,000 on capital expenditures during the 40-weeks ending November 6, 2017.~~

Cash provided from operations was approximately $~~692~~29,000 for the 4016-weeks ending ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 and $~~308~~514,000 for the 4016-weeks ending ~~November~~May 621, ~~2017~~2018, respectively. The decrease in cash generated from operating activities for the 16-week period ending May 20, 2019 was primarily due to the increase in the net loss in the current fiscal year as compared to the prior fiscal year.

Cash used by financing activities was approximately $~~349~~8,000 for the 4016-weeks ending ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 compared to cash ~~provided~~used by financing activities of approximately $~~186~~350,000 for the 4016-weeks ending ~~November~~May 621, ~~2017~~2018. In the first ~~three~~quarter ~~quarters~~ of Fiscal ~~2019~~2020, cash used by financing activities was as follows: The Company made net debt payments of approximately $~~275~~67,000 and had checks written in excess of bank balance of $~~164~~59,000, a change of $7459,000. In the first ~~three~~quarter ~~quarters~~ of Fiscal ~~2018~~2019, cash ~~used~~provided by financing activities was as follows: The Company made net debt payments of approximately $~~251~~122,000, ~~had loan proceeds of approximately $285,000, had loan costs of $7,000~~ and had checks written in excess of bank balance of $~~259~~10,000, a change of $~~159~~228,000.

During fiscal 2008, the Company borrowed approximately $1,400,000 from Mr. Wheaton. In June 2008, the Company borrowed an additional $592,000 from Mr. Wheaton under the same terms. This resulted in an increase in the note balance from $1,400,000 to $1,992,000, the balance as of ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 and January 2928, ~~2018~~2019. The principal balance and any unpaid interest was due and payable in full on June 5, 2012. The loan was subsequently modified as a result of the Company’s bankruptcy filing and pursuant to the plan of reorganization approved by the Bankruptcy Court on December 17, 2012 (the “Bankruptcy Plan”), the principal balance was not eligible to be repaid until all obligations owed to other creditors have been fully satisfied. Interest accrued on the principal amount of $1,992,000 and the interest of $197,000 from September 28, 2011 to December 7, 2016 at the Bankruptcy Plan rate. When the Bankruptcy Court entered into a Final Decree and Order Closing the Bankruptcy Case of Star Buffet, Inc. on December 7, 2016, the Company reverted back to the original interest rate of 8.5%. The Company expensed $~~105~~60,000 to Robert E. Wheaton for interest during the first ~~three~~ quarters of Fiscal ~~2019~~2020 and Fiscal ~~2018~~2019.

On November 9, 2016, the Company borrowed $450,000 from Mr. Robert E. Wheaton to remodel the 4B’s Restaurant in Missoula, Montana. The three-year fully amortized secured loan has monthly payments of $14,839 and interest rate of 11.5%. The Company paid Mr. Wheaton approximately $~~113~~55,000 and $~~101~~51,000 in principal during the first ~~three~~ quarters of Fiscal ~~2019~~2020 and Fiscal ~~2018~~2019, respectively, under this mortgage. In addition, the Company paid approximately $215,000 and $338,000 in interest during the first ~~three~~ quarters of Fiscal ~~2019~~2020 and Fiscal ~~2018~~2019, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies and Judgments

The Company prepares its condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP. The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the application of certain accounting policies, the most significant of which are described in Note 1—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the audited financial statements for Fiscal ~~2018~~2019 included in the ~~2018~~2019 Form 10-K. Certain of these policies require numerous estimates and strategic or economic assumptions that may prove inaccurate or be subject to variations and which may significantly affect the Company's results and financial position for the reported period or in future periods. Changes in underlying factors, assumptions or estimates in any of these areas could have a material impact on the Company's future financial condition and results of operations.

Earnings or Loss Per Common Share

Net (loss) income per common share - basic is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net (loss) income per common share – diluted is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive stock options are considered to be common stock equivalents and are included in the diluted calculation using the treasury stock method.

Basic earnings or loss per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods. Diluted earnings or loss per common share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive stock options are considered to be common stock equivalents and are included in the diluted calculation using the treasury stock method. The Company did not have any outstanding stock options for the fiscal quarters ending ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 and ~~November~~May 621, ~~2017~~2018.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”. The Company assesses whether an impairment write-down is necessary whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment loss to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Any impairment is recognized as a charge to earnings, which would adversely affect operating results in the affected period.

Buildings and equipment placed on the market for sale is not depreciated and is recorded on the balance sheet as property held for sale and recorded at the lower of cost or market.

Repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Major equipment refurbishments and remodeling costs are generally capitalized.

The Company's accounting policies regarding buildings and equipment include certain management judgments regarding the estimated useful lives of such assets, the residual values to which the assets are depreciated and the determination as to what constitutes the life of existing assets. These judgments and estimates may produce materially different amounts of depreciation and amortization expense than would be reported if different assumptions were used.

This update requires a lessee to recognize on the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments and a corresponding right-of-use asset. The guidance also requires certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, which will require us to adopt these provisions in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 using a modified retrospective approach. While early adoption is permitted, the Company has selected a transition date of January 29, 2019. We are evaluating the effect this new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.18

InSignificant ~~July 2018, the FASB issued~~ Accounting ~~Standards~~Policies Update 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842). This update provides entities with an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard. Under this method, an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Consequently, the prior comparative period’s financials will remain the same as those previously presented. Entities that elect this optional transition method must provide the disclosures that were previously required. The Company will adopt this transition method in the first quarter of fiscal 2020.

Adoption of ASC Topic 842: Leases

Operating Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Lease agreements will typically exist with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019, the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

This is not required for small issuers.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the required time periods and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, as appropriate.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and the Principal Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness and the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the Principal Accounting Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended ~~November~~May 520, ~~2018~~2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Further, because of changes in conditions, effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting may vary over time.
