ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES .
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on evaluations as
of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the participation
of our management team, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) were effective to ensure that information
the Company is required to disclose in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated
to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded,
processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Management’s Assessment on Internal
Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible
for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. This evaluation was based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 2013 (“COSO”). Based on that evaluation, our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of October 3, 2020, our internal control over financial
reporting was effective.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
and Permitted Omission from Management’s Assessment
Our internal control over
financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. All internal control
systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention
or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even effective internal controls can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to
financial statement preparation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures
may deteriorate.
This annual report does
not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant
to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
of
Flanigan’s Enterprises, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of Flanigan’s Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) as of October 3, 2020 and September 28, 2019,
the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period
ended October 3, 2020 and September 28, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of
October 3, 2020 and September 28, 2019, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the two years in the period
ended October 3, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Adoption of New Accounting Standard
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated
financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for leases due to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic
842), as amended, effective September 29, 2019, using the modified retrospective approach.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits.
We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB")
and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with
the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have,
nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required
to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to
assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures
that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED OCTOBER 3, 2020 AND SEPTEMBER 28,
2019
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Capitalization
The Company was incorporated in 1959
and operates in South Florida as a chain of full-service restaurants and package liquor stores. Restaurant food and beverage sales
make up the majority of our total revenue. As of October 3, 2020, we (i) operated 27 units consisting of restaurants, package liquor
stores and combination restaurants/package liquor stores that we either own or have operational control over and partial ownership
in; and (ii) franchise an additional five units, consisting of two restaurants, (one of which we operate) and three combination
restaurants/package liquor stores. With the exception of one restaurant we operate under the name “The Whale’s Rib”,
and in which we do not have an ownership interest, all of the restaurants operate under our service mark “Flanigan’s
Seafood Bar and Grill” and all of the package liquor stores operate under our service mark “Big Daddy’s Liquors”.
The Company’s Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, authorize us to issue and have outstanding at any one time 5,000,000 shares of common stock at a par
value of $0.10 per share.
We operate under a 52-53 week year
ending the Saturday closest to September 30. Our fiscal year 2020 is comprised of a 53-week period and our fiscal year 2019 is
comprised of a 52-week period.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and our subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned, and the accounts of the eight limited
partnerships in which we act as general partner and have controlling interests. All significant intercompany transactions and balances
have been eliminated in consolidation.
Noncontrolling interests in consolidated
subsidiaries are included in the consolidated balance sheets as a separate component of equity. We report consolidated net income
inclusive of both the Company’s and the noncontrolling interests’ share, as well as amounts of consolidated net income
(loss) attributable to each of the Company and the noncontrolling interests.
Use of Estimates
The consolidated financial statements
and related disclosures are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We are required
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
F- 7
Table of Contents
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Use of Estimates (Continued)
disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenue and expenses during the period reported. These
estimates include assessing the estimated useful lives of tangible assets, the recognition of deferred tax assets and
liabilities and estimates relating to the calculation of incremental borrowing rates and length of leases associated with
right-of-use assets and corresponding liabilities. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of
revisions are reflected in our consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary. Although
these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, they may ultimately
differ from actual results.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments
with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Inventories
Our inventories, which consist primarily
of package liquor products, are stated at the lower of average cost or net realizable value.
Liquor Licenses
In accordance with the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 350, “ Intangibles - Goodwill and
Other ”, our liquor licenses are indefinite lived assets, which are not being amortized, but are tested annually for impairment
(see Note 10).
Property and Equipment
Our property
and equipment are stated at cost. We capitalize expenditures for major improvements and depreciation commences when the assets
are placed in service. We record depreciation on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.
We charge maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the life of the respective assets, to expense as incurred. When
we dispose of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included
in income.
Our estimated
useful lives range from three to five years for vehicles and three to seven years for furniture and equipment. Leasehold improvements
are currently being amortized over the shorter of the life of the lease or the life of the asset up to a maximum of 20 years. Our
building and building improvements of our corporate offices in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; our building and building improvements
of our construction office/warehouse in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; our combination restaurant and package liquor store in Hallandale,
Florida; our restaurants in N. Miami and Fort Lauderdale, Florida; our package store in N. Miami, Florida, our shopping center
in Miami, Florida and property in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, all of which we own, are being depreciated over forty years.

Table of Contents
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Leasehold Interests
Our purchase of an existing restaurant
location usually includes a lease to the business premises. As a result, a portion of the purchase price is allocated to the leasehold
interest. We capitalize the cost of the leasehold interest and amortization commences upon our assumption of the lease. We amortize
leasehold interests on a straight line basis over the remaining term of the lease.
Investment in Limited Partnerships
We use the consolidation method
of accounting when we have a controlling interest in other companies and limited partnerships. We use the equity method of
accounting when we have significant influence and an interest between twenty to fifty percent in other companies and limited
partnerships, but do not exercise control. Under the equity method, our original investments are recorded at cost and are
adjusted for our share of undistributed earnings or losses. All significant intercompany profits are eliminated.
Concentrations of Credit
Risk
Financial instruments that potentially
subject us to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We maintain deposit balances
with financial institutions which balances may, from time to time, exceed the federally insured limits, which are $250,000 for
interest and non-interest bearing accounts. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts.
Major Suppliers
Throughout our
fiscal years 2020 and 2019, we purchased substantially all of our food products from one major supplier pursuant to a master distribution
agreement which entitled us to receive certain purchase discounts, rebates and advertising allowances that are recorded as a reduction
of cost of merchandise sold in periods in which they are earned. We believe that several other alternative vendors are available,
if necessary.
Throughout our fiscal years 2020
and 2019, we purchased the majority of our alcoholic beverages from three local distributors. Each distributor has exclusive rights
from the manufacturers to sell specific brands in given areas, so unless the exclusive distribution rights are transferred to another
vendor, there are no alternate distributors available.
F- 9
Table of Contents
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue related to food, bar
and package sale are recorded at the point of sale. Royalty-related revenues, which are 1% of package sales and 3% of
restaurant sales, are recorded as income on a weekly basis, in arrears. We report our sales net of sales tax.
Pre-opening
Costs
As new restaurants open, our income
from operations will be adversely affected due to our obligation to fund pre-opening costs are those typically associated with
the opening of a new restaurant and generally include payroll costs associated with the new restaurant opening, rent and promotional
costs. We expense pre-opening costs as incurred.
Advertising
Costs
Our
advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs incurred during our fiscal years ended October 3, 2020 and September
28, 2019 were approximately ($113,000) and $97,000 respectively. Advertising costs incurred
during our fiscal year ended October 3, 2020 were a credit as a result of lower advertising costs during the fiscal year due to
COVID-19 and advertising allowances.
General Liability Insurance
We have general
liability insurance which incorporates a deductible of $10,000 per occurrence for both us and the limited partnerships. Our insurance
carrier is responsible for $1,000,000 coverage per occurrence above our deductible, up to a maximum aggregate of $2,000,000 per
year. During our fiscal year ended October 3, 2020, we were able to purchase excess liability insurance, whereby our excess insurance
carrier is responsible for $10,000,000 coverage above our primary general liability insurance coverage. We are un-insured against
liability claims in excess of $11,000,000 per occurrence and in the aggregate.
Our general policy
is to settle only those legitimate and reasonable claims asserted and to aggressively defend and go to trial, if necessary, on
frivolous and unreasonable claims. Under our current liability insurance policy, any expense incurred by us in defending a claim,
including attorney's fees, are a part of our $10,000 deductible.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The respective carrying value of
certain of our on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair value. These instruments include cash and cash equivalents,
other
F- 10
Table of Contents
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments (Continued)
receivables, accounts payables,
accrued expenses and debt. We have assumed carrying values to approximate fair values for those financial instruments, which are
short-term in nature or are receivable or payable on demand. We estimated the fair value of debt based on current rates offered
to us for debt of comparable maturities and similar collateral requirements.
In accordance with FASB ASC Topic
820-10-50-1, we utilized a valuation model to determine the fair value of our swap agreements. As the valuation models for the
swap agreements were based upon observable inputs, they are classified as Level 2 (see Note 14).
Derivative Instruments
We account for derivative instruments
in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815-10-05-4, “ Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” as
amended, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815-10-05-4, derivative instruments are
recognized as assets or liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and are measured at fair value. We recognize
all changes in fair value through earnings unless the derivative is determined to be an effective hedge. We currently have two
derivatives which we have designated as effective hedges (See Note 14).
Income Taxes
We account for our income taxes using
FASB ASC Topic 740, “ Income Taxes ”, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for
expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Under
this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax
bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
We follow
the provisions regarding Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which require the recognition of a financial statement
benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position
following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements
is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant
tax authority. We applied these changes to tax positions for our fiscal years ending October 3, 2020 and September 28, 2019. We
had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows were
required. Generally, federal, state and local authorities may examine the Company’s tax returns for three years from the
date of filing and the current and prior three years remain subject to examination as of October 3, 2020. We do not expect that
unrecognized tax benefits will increase within the next twelve months. We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain
tax positions as income tax expense.
F- 11
Table of Contents
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Long-Lived Assets
We continually evaluate whether events
and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated life of our intangible and other long-lived assets or
whether the remaining balance of our intangible and other long-lived assets should be evaluated for possible impairment. If and
when such factors, events or circumstances indicate that intangible or other long-lived assets should be evaluated for possible
impairment, we will determine the fair value of the asset by making an estimate of expected future cash flows over the remaining
lives of the respective assets and compare that fair value with the carrying value of the assets in measuring their recoverability.
In determining the expected future cash flows, the assets will be grouped at the lowest level for which there are cash flows, at
the individual store level.
Earnings Per Share
We follow FASB
ASC Topic 260 - “ Earnings per Share .” This section provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings
per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution. Earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common
stockholders by the basic and diluted weighted average number of common shares.
Recently Adopted and
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Effective September 29, 2019,
we adopted Accounting Standards Codification 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). The new guidance requires that lease
arrangements be presented on the lessee’s balance sheet by recording a right-of-use asset and a lease liability equal
to the present value of the related future minimum lease payments. We adopted the standard in the first quarter of fiscal
2020, using the modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption, the Company recorded a right-of-use asset of $27.8 million
and a lease liability of $27.8 million. At October 1, 2020 the Company decreased the operating lease right-of-use asset by
$2.6 million and the operating lease right-of-use liability by $2.6 million with the reclassification of an operating lease
to a finance lease due to the exercise of a purchase option subsequent to the end of our fiscal year 2020. The Company
recorded a finance lease right-of-use asset of $4.8 million and a finance lease liability of $4.8 million.
We elected the transition package
of practical expedients, under which the Company does not have to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are leases,
or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (3) initial direct costs for any existing
leases. In addition, we made an accounting policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the
balance sheet. This standard had a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income due to the escalations of
rent in the extensions but did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
Issued
There are no recently issued accounting
pronouncements that we have not yet adopted that we believe will have a material effect on our financial statements.

NOTE 4. INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
We have invested
with others (some of whom are affiliated with our officers and directors) in nine limited partnerships which own and operate nine
South Florida based restaurants under our service mark “Flanigan’s Seafood Bar and Grill”. In addition to being
a limited partner in these limited partnerships, we are the sole general partner of eight of these
limited partnerships and manage and control the operations of the restaurants except for the restaurant located in Fort Lauderdale,
Florida where we only hold a limited partnership interest.
Generally, the terms of the limited
partnership agreements provide that until the investors’ cash investment in a limited partnership (including any cash invested
by us) is returned in full, the limited partnership distributes to the investors annually out of available cash from the operation
of the restaurant, as a return of capital, up to 25% of the cash invested in the limited
F- 13
Table of Contents
NOTE 4. INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS (Continued)
partnership, with no management fee
paid to us. Any available cash in excess of the 25% of the cash invested in the limited partnership distributed to the investors
annually, is paid one-half (½) to us as a management fee and one-half (1/2) to the investors (including us) prorata based
upon the investors’ investment, as a return of capital. Once all of the investors (including us) have received, in full,
amounts equal to their cash invested, an annual management fee becomes payable to us equal to one-half (½) of cash available
to be distributed, with the other one half (½) of available cash distributed to the investors (including us) as a profit
distribution, pro-rata based upon the investors’ investment.
As
of October 3, 2020, limited partnerships owning eight (8) restaurants, (Surfside, Florida, Kendall, Florida, West Miami, Florida,
Pinecrest, Florida, Wellington, Florida, Miami, Florida, Pembroke Pines, Florida and Davie, Florida locations), have returned all
cash invested and we receive an annual management fee equal to one-half (½) of the cash available for distribution by the
limited partnership. In addition to our receipt of distributable amounts from the limited partnerships, we receive a fee
equal to 3% of gross sales for use of our “Flanigan’s Seafood Bar and Grill” service mark, which use is authorized
only while we act as general partner. This 3% fee is “earned” when sales are made by the limited partnerships and is
paid weekly, in arrears.

fiscal year 2019, we entered into a Lease Agreement (the “Sunrise Lease Agreement”) with a non-affiliated third party
to rent approximately 6,900 square feet of commercial space in Sunrise, Florida where, subject to certain conditions, we anticipate
opening a new restaurant location under our “Flanigan’s Seafood Bar and Grill” service mark. During the third
quarter of our fiscal year 2019, we assigned the Sunrise Lease Agreement to a newly formed limited partnership in which we currently
are (i) the sole general partner; and (ii) our wholly owned subsidiary is the sole limited partner. While there can be no assurances
that we will be successful in doing so, we intend to sell limited partnership interests to third parties as well as affiliates
of the Company in order to raise net proceeds, in the amount of $5,000,000, which proceeds will be used to renovate this potential
restaurant location. We anticipate that the new restaurant location’s ownership and operating structure will be substantially
similar to that of our other restaurants owned by limited partnerships.
Fort Lauderdale, Florida
A corporation, owned by a member
of our Board of Directors, acts as sole general partner of a limited partnership which has owned and operated a restaurant in Fort

25% limited partnership interest in this limited partnership. 31.9% of the remaining limited partnership interest is owned by persons
who are either our officers, directors or their family members. We have a franchise arrangement with this limited partnership.
For accounting purposes, we do not consolidate the operations of this limited partnership into our operations. This entity is reported
using the equity method in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The following is a summary of condensed unaudited

Table of Contents
During the second quarter of our
fiscal year 2019, we purchased from an unrelated third party the vacant real property (the “Property”), located at
2119 S.E. 9 th Street, Pompano Beach, Florida for $1,300,000 cash at closing. The Property is adjacent to property owned
by a third party unaffiliated with us and leased to another third party unaffiliated with us for use as a restaurant (the “Adjacent
Property”). At closing, we executed an Option to Lease Agreement to lease the Adjacent Property for a 50 year term commencing
in November, 2022. We will either (i) sublease the building on the Adjacent Property to a related franchisee for operation as a
“Flanigan’s Seafood Bar and Grill” restaurant and use the Property as parking; or (ii) renovate the building
on the Adjacent Property for operation as a “Flanigan’s Seafood Bar and Grill” restaurant and use the Property
as parking. If we renovate this new restaurant location on the Adjacent Property, we plan to raise funds using our limited partnership
ownership model.
NOTE 6.
EXECUTION OF LEASES FOR NEW LOCATIONS:
Miramar, Florida
(“Flanigan’s Seafood Bar and Grill”)
During fourth quarter of our fiscal
year 2019, we entered into a Lease Agreement for a non-affiliated restaurant location in a shopping center in Miramar, Florida.
The shopping center is currently in the developmental stage and the Lease Agreement is still contingent upon our receipt of delivery
of the leased premises by August 28, 2021. We plan to assign the Lease Agreement to a limited partnership in which (i) we will
be the sole general partner; and (ii) a wholly owned subsidiary will be the limited partner. While there can be no assurances that
we will be successful in doing so, we intend to sell limited partnership interests to third parties as well as affiliates of the
Company in order to raise net proceeds, in an amount to be determined, which proceeds will be used to renovate this potential restaurant
location. We anticipate that the new restaurant location’s ownership and operating structure will be substantially similar
to that of our other restaurants owned by limited partnerships. Any amounts we advance to the limited partnership will be applied
as a credit to limited partnership equity in the limited partnership we may acquire (which equity shall be purchased at the same
price and upon the same terms as other equity investors). If we do not acquire equity in the limited partnership for at least $250,000,
any excess amounts advanced by us will be reimbursed to us by the limited partnership without interest. Through October 3, 2020,
we have no advances to the limited partnership.
Miramar, Florida
(“Big Daddy’s Liquors”)
During the fourth quarter of our
fiscal year 2019, we entered into a Lease Agreement for a non-affiliated package liquor store location in a shopping center in
Miramar, Florida, directly adjacent to the new non-affiliated restaurant location. The shopping center is currently in the developmental
stage and the Lease Agreement is still contingent upon our receipt of delivery of the leased premises by August 28, 2021. The new
package liquor store location will be Company owned.
NOTE 7. MORTGAGE / FINANCED INSURANCE PREMIUMS:
(a) Mortgage on Real
Property
On November 27, 2019,
our wholly owned subsidiary, Flanigan’s Calusa Center, LLC, re-financed its mortgage loan with an unrelated third party lender,
increasing the principal amount borrowed from $2.72 million to $7.21 million. The principal balance and all accrued interest of
the mortgage loan that had been outstanding matured November 30, 2019. The re-financed mortgage loan earns interest at the fixed
annual rate of 3.86%, is amortized over twenty (20) years, requires us to pay monthly payments of principal and interest in the
amount of $43,373 with the entire principal balance and all accrued interest due in November 2026. We intend to use the excess
funds we received from the re-financing of this mortgage loan (approximately $4.4 million) for working capital.

(b) Financed Insurance
Premiums
During our fiscal year 2020, we
bound and financed through an unrelated third party lender the premiums on the following property, general liability, excess liability
and terrorism insurance policies:
(i) For
the policy year beginning December 30, 2019, our general liability insurance, excluding limited partnerships, is a one (1) year
policy, including automobile and excess liability coverage. The annual premium for this insurance coverage is $418,000;
(ii) For
the policy year beginning December 30, 2019, our general liability insurance for our limited partnerships is a one (1) year policy,
including excess liability coverage. The annual premium for this insurance coverage is $459,000;
(iii) For
the policy year beginning December 30, 2019, our property insurance is a one (1) year policy and the annual premium for this insurance
coverage is $561,000 ;
(iv) For
the policy year beginning December 30, 2019, our excess liability insurance is a one (1) year policy and the annual premium for
this insurance coverage is $360,000; and
(v) For
the policy year beginning December 30, 2019, our terrorism insurance is a one (1) year policy and the annual premium for this insurance
coverage is $12,000.
Of the $1,810,000 annual premium
amounts, which includes coverage for our franchises which are not included in our consolidated financial statements, we financed
$1,656,000 through an unaffiliated third party lender. The finance agreement obligates us to repay the amounts financed together
with interest at the rate of 2.55% per annum, over 11 months, with monthly payments of principal and interest, each in the amount
of $153,000 . The finance agreement is secured by a first priority security interest in all insurance policies, all unearned
premium, return premiums, dividend payments and loss payments thereof.
As of October 3, 2020, the aggregate
principal balance owed to the third party lender from the financing of our insurance policies is $365,000, excluding amounts which
are reimbursed by our franchises for insurances covering their operations, but including the annual premiums for boiler insurance
($2,000) and directors and officers liability insurance ($34,000), which were added to the finance agreement during the third quarter
of our fiscal year 2020 and are financed over the balance of the term of the same.

(c) Paycheck Protection
Loans
During the third quarter of our fiscal
year 2020, we, certain of the entities owning the limited partnership stores (the “LP’s”), franchised stores
(the “Franchisees”), as well as the store we manage but do not own (the “Managed Store”) (collectively,
the “Borrowers”), applied for and received loans from an unrelated third party lender pursuant to the Paycheck Protection
Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) enacted
March 27, 2020, in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $13.1 million, (the “PPP Loans”), of which approximately:
(i) $5.9 million was loaned to us; (ii) $4.1 million was loaned to 8 of the LP’s ; (iii) $2.6 million was loaned to 5 of
the Franchisees; and (iv) $0.5 million was loaned to the Managed Store. The PPP Loans to the Franchisees and the Managed Store
are not included in our consolidated financial statements.
The PPP Loans, which are in
the form of Notes issued by each of the Borrowers, mature two years from the date of funding (dates ranging from May 5, 2022
to May 11, 2022) and bear interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum, payable monthly commencing approximately six months from the
date of issuance of the Notes (issuance dates ranging from April 30, 2020 to May 6, 2020). The Notes may be prepaid by the
applicable Borrower at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. Proceeds from the PPP Loans will be available
to the respective Borrower to fund designated expenses, including certain payroll costs, group health care benefits and other
permitted expenses, including rent and interest on mortgages and other debt obligations incurred before February 15, 2020.
Under the terms of the PPP, up to the entire amount of principal and accrued interest may be forgiven to the extent the
proceeds of the PPP Loans are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act and applicable implementing guidance
issued by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the PPP. No assurance can be given that the Borrowers will obtain
forgiveness of the PPP Loans in whole or in part.
With respect to any portion of any
of the PPP Loans that is not forgiven under the terms of the PPP, such amounts will be subject to customary provisions for a loan
of this type, including customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of the provisions
of the applicable PPP Note and cross-defaults on any other loan with the Lender or other creditors.
NOTE 8. CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC:
In March 2020, a novel strain of
coronavirus was declared a global pandemic and a National Public Health Emergency. The novel coronavirus pandemic and related “shelter-in-place”
orders and other governmental mandates relating thereto (collectively, “COVID-19”) adversely affected and will, in
all likelihood continue to adversely affect, our restaurant operations and financial results for the foreseeable future. Due to
COVID-19, from mid-March 2020 through mid-May 2020, we ceased all dining and bar services at all of our restaurants, limiting service
to take-out and delivery only of food, and implemented reduced hours at our retail package liquor stores. From mid-May 2020 through
the beginning of July 2020, there was a gradual elimination of restrictions on our restaurant operations, permitting us to, among
other things, provide dining for outdoor seating patrons with appropriate social distancing and provide dining for indoor patrons
at up to 50% capacity (depending on the location of the restaurant), but with no bar service and increased operating hours at our
package liquor stores. From the beginning of July 2020 through the beginning of September 2020, we ceased dine-in service at all
of our Miami-Dade County, Florida restaurants, (two Company-owned and six limited partnership owned restaurants). Since the beginning
of September 2020, we have been offering both food and bar options at all of our restaurants, including those located in Miami-Dade
County, Florida, with appropriate social distancing and dine-in service at up to 100% capacity, including outdoor dining.
F- 19
Table of Contents
Due to COVID-19, we implemented (i)
certain cost cutting measures including material layoffs at our restaurants and reduced corporate personnel salaries; and (ii)
a number of changes to our operations such as the establishment of an in-house delivery service and an adjustment to our traditional
staffing model to meet customer demand. We have been in regular contact with our suppliers and while to date we have not experienced
significant disruptions in our supply chain, we could see future disruptions should the impacts of COVID-19 extend for a considerable
amount of time. To support our employees, we have implemented work from home support, increased sanitization of high touch, high
traffic areas in our restaurants, retail package liquor stores and corporate offices, provided personal protective equipment for
our employees and increased the frequency of personal hygiene practices. From March 29, 2020 through May 9, 2020, the salaries
of all our non-executive corporate office personnel were reduced by 20%, the base salaries of our Chief Operating Officer and Chief
Financial Officer were each reduced by 50% and our Chief Executive Officer waived his base salary, representing salary savings
of approximately $135,000 during this period. Our employee headcount as of fiscal year end 2020 was 1,804 persons reduced from
1,870 persons as of our fiscal year end 2019.
In addition and also due to COVID-19, we did not make any
quarterly distributions to our limited partners for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. For each of the quarters ended June 30, 2020
and September 30, 2020, we made quarterly distributions to our limited partners equal to one-half (½) of the amounts that
would have been distributed for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
During the third quarter of fiscal
year end 2020, the United States government passed a $2.0 trillion Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES
Act”) designed primarily to help keep businesses running during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act included provisions
for certain deductions and tax credits, filing deadline extensions, filing payment deadlines and making available certain grant
money to assist businesses. This CARES ACT allowed us to take advantage of credits, deferments, and deductions, and PPP Loans (described
below) during the third quarter of our fiscal year 2020. As a result, during the third and fourth quarter of 2020, we reversed
certain of our cost cutting measures, including (i) reinstating employees laid off at our restaurants in anticipation of resuming
dine-in service, (ii) restoring corporate personnel and executive salaries and (iii) paying prior salary reductions.
During the third quarter of our fiscal
year 2020, we, certain of the entities owning the limited partnership stores (the “LP’s”), franchised stores
(the “Franchisees”) as well as the store we manage but do not own (the “Managed Store”), (collectively,
the “Borrowers”), applied for and received loans from an unrelated third party lender pursuant to the Paycheck Protection
Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) enacted
March 27, 2020, in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $13.1 million, (the “PPP Loans”), of which approximately:
(i) $5.9 million was loaned to us; (ii) $4.1 million was loaned to 8 of the LP’s; (iii) $2.6 million was loaned to 5 of the
Franchisees; and (iv) $0.5 million was loaned to the Managed Store. The PPP Loans to the Franchisees and the Managed Store are
not included in our consolidated financial statements. Due to our receipt of the PPP Loans, we reversed certain cost cutting measures,
including reinstating employees laid off at our restaurants in anticipation of resuming dine-in service and restoring corporate
personnel salaries.

The PPP Loans, which are in
the form of Notes issued by each of the Borrowers, mature two years from the date of funding (dates ranging from May 5, 2022
to May 11, 2022) and bear interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum, payable monthly commencing approximately six months from the
date of issuance of the Notes (issuance dates ranging from April 30, 2020 to May 6, 2020). The Notes may be prepaid by the
applicable Borrower at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. Proceeds from the PPP Loans have been used
and are available to the respective Borrower to fund designated expenses, including certain payroll costs, group health care
benefits and other permitted expenses, including rent and interest on mortgages and other debt obligations incurred before
February 15, 2020. Under the terms of the PPP, up to the entire amount of principal and accrued interest may be forgiven to
the extent the proceeds of the PPP Loans are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act and applicable
implementing guidance issued by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the PPP. No assurance can be given that the
Borrowers will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loans in whole or in part.
With respect to any portion of any
of the PPP Loans that is not forgiven under the terms of the PPP, such amounts will be subject to customary provisions for a loan
of this type, including customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of the provisions
of the applicable PPP Note and cross-defaults on any other loan with the Lender or other creditors.
We do not believe COVID-19 has had
a material adverse effect on our access to supplies or labor, although there can be no assurance that there will not be a significant
adverse impact on our supply chain or access to labor in the future. We are actively monitoring our food suppliers to assess how
they are managing their operations to mitigate supply flow and food safety risks. To ensure we mitigate potential supply availability
risk, we are building additional inventory back stock levels when appropriate and we have also identified alternative supply sources
in key product categories including but not limited to food, sanitation and safety supplies.
Prior to obtaining the PPP Loans,
we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our loans with our unrelated third party institutional lender (the
“Institutional Lender”) under which as of October 3, 2020, we owe in the aggregate, approximately $12,209,000 (the
“Institutional Loans”). We determined that as of the end of the third quarter of our fiscal year 2020, we were not
in compliance with our financial covenants contained in the Institutional Loans related to the Rent Adjusted Funded Debt to EBITDA
Ratio because our consolidated debt during the third quarter of our fiscal year 2020 increased due to our repayment obligations
under the PPP Loans (the “Covenant Breach’). Pursuant to the terms of the Institutional Loans, the Covenant Breach,
grants the Institutional Lender the right to exercise certain remedies under the Institutional Loans, including the right to accelerate
the indebtedness owed by us to the Institutional Lender thereunder. On August 10, 2020, we received a written waiver of the Covenant
Breach from the Institutional Lender, which, among other things, waives the Covenant Breach through June 30, 2021. As of October
3, 2020, we are in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our loans with our Institutional Lender.
There can be no assurances that we
will be in compliance with our financial covenants thereafter due to, among other things, that our results of operations will likely
continue to be materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Absent a waiver, failure to be in compliance with our financial covenants
would constitute a default under the Institutional Loans with our Institutional Lender when reported. Such a default, if not cured
or waived, would allow the Institutional Lender to accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness we owe under the Institutional Loans,
making it due and payable at the time. If maturity of the Institutional Loans were accelerated, it would have a material adverse
impact on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

NOTE 9. CASUALTY LOSS:
During the first quarter of our fiscal
year 2019, our combination package liquor store and restaurant located at 2505 N. University Drive, Hollywood, Florida (Store #19)
was damaged by a fire and was forced to close. Due to the damage caused by the fire, we determined that Store #19 should be demolished
and rebuilt and as a result, the package liquor store and restaurant were closed for at least our fiscal years 2020 and 2019. We
had insurance coverage of $1,975,000, in the aggregate, which our insurance carrier paid. We sustained a loss of $1,373,000 on
our building and business personal property, against which we received insurance proceeds of $1,200,000 resulting in a loss of
$173,000. We had a gain of $775,000 on our business interruption coverage, which when netted against our loss of $173,000 on our
building and business personal property produced a gain of $602,000 during our fiscal year 2019.
NOTE 10. LIQUOR LICENSES
Liquor licenses,
which are indefinite lived assets, are tested for impairment in September of each of our fiscal years. The fair value of liquor
licenses at October 3, 2020, exceeded the carrying amount; therefore, we recognized no impairment loss. The fair value of the liquor
licenses was evaluated by comparing the carrying value to recent sales for similar liquor licenses in the County issued. At October
3, 2020 and September 28, 2019, the total carrying amount of our liquor licenses was $630,000. We acquired no liquor licenses in
our fiscal year 2020.

Prior to obtaining the PPP Loans,
we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our loans with our unrelated third party institutional lender (the
“Institutional Lender”) under which as of October 3, 2020, we owe in the aggregate, approximately $12,209,000 (the
“Institutional Loans”). We determined that as of the end of the third quarter of our fiscal year 2020, we were not
in compliance with our financial covenants contained in the Institutional Loans related to the Rent Adjusted Funded Debt to EBITDA
Ratio because our consolidated debt during the third quarter of our fiscal year 2020 increased due to our repayment obligations
under the PPP Loans (the “Covenant Breach’). Pursuant to the terms of the Institutional Loans, the Covenant Breach,
grants the Institutional Lender the right to exercise certain remedies under the Institutional Loans, including the right to accelerate
the indebtedness owed by us to the Institutional Lender thereunder. On August 10, 2020, we received a written waiver of the Covenant
Breach from the Institutional Lender, which, among other things, waives the Covenant Breach through June 30, 2021. As of October
3, 2020, we are in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our loans with our Institutional Lender.

There can be no assurances that we
will be in compliance with our financial covenants thereafter due to, among other things, that our results of operations will likely
continue to be materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Absent a waiver, failure to be in compliance with our financial covenants
would constitute a default under the Institutional Loans with our Institutional Lender when reported. Such a default, if not cured
or waived, would allow the Institutional Lender to accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness we owe under the Institutional Loans,
making it due and payable at the time. If maturity of the Institutional Loans were accelerated, it would have a material adverse
impact on our consolidated financial statements and results of operations.

Construction Contracts
a. 2505 N. University Drive,
Hollywood, Florida (Store #19)
During the third quarter of
our fiscal year 2019, we entered into an agreement with a third party unaffiliated architect for design and development
services totaling $77,000 for the re-build of our restaurant located at 2505 N. University Drive, Hollywood, Florida (Store
#19) which has been closed since October 2018 due to damages caused by a fire, of which $62,000 has been paid. Additionally,
during the third quarter of our fiscal year 2019, we entered into an agreement with a third party unaffiliated general
contractor for site work at this location totaling $1,618,000, (i) to connect the real property where this restaurant
operated (Store #19) to city sewer and (ii) to construct a new building on the adjacent parcel of real property for the
operation of a package liquor store. During our fiscal year 2020, we agreed to change orders to the agreement for additional
construction services increasing the total contract price by $112,000 to $1,730,000, of which $-0- has been paid through
October 3, 2020. Subsequent to the end of our fiscal year 2020, we agreed to additional change orders to the agreement for
additional price by $28,000 to $1,757,000, of which $64,000 has been paid.
b. 14301 W. Sunrise
Boulevard, Sunrise, Florida (Store #85)
During the third quarter of our
fiscal year 2019, we entered into an agreement with a third party unaffiliated design group for design and development
services of our new location at 14301 W. Sunrise Boulevard, Sunrise, Florida 33323 (Store #85) for a total contract price of
$122,000. During the first quarter of our fiscal year 2020, we agreed upon changes to the agreement for additional design and
development services which had the effect of increasing the total contract price of the same by $18,000 to $140,000, of which
$106,000 has been paid. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2020, we entered into an agreement with a
third party unaffiliated general contractor for interior renovations at this location totaling $1,236,000, of which $-0- has

Legal
Matters
Our sale of alcoholic
beverages subjects us to “dram shop” statutes, which allow an injured person to recover damages from an establishment
that served alcoholic beverages to an intoxicated person. If we receive a judgment substantially in excess of our insurance coverage
or if we fail to maintain our insurance coverage, our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flows could be materially
and adversely affected. We currently have no “dram shop” claims pending.
We are a
party to various other claims, legal actions and complaints arising in the ordinary course of our business. It is our opinion
that all such matters are without merit or involve such amounts that an unfavorable disposition would not have a material
adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
Leases
To conduct certain
of our operations, we lease restaurant and package liquor store space in South Florida from unrelated third parties. Our leases
have remaining lease terms of up to 10 years, some of which include options to renew and extend the lease terms for up to an additional
30 years. We presently intend to renew some of the extension options available to us and for purposes of computing the right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities required by ASC 842, we have incorporated into all lease terms which may be extended, an additional
term of the lesser of (i) the amount of years the lease may be extended; or (ii) 15 years.
Following adoption
of ASC 842, common area maintenance and property taxes are not considered to be lease components.

Purchase Commitments
In order to fix the cost and ensure
adequate supply of baby back ribs for our restaurants during calendar year 2021, on November 9, 2020, we entered into a purchase
agreement with our current rib supplier, whereby we agreed to purchase approximately $6,420,000 of baby back ribs during calendar
year 2021 from this vendor at a fixed cost.
While we anticipate purchasing all
of our rib supply from this vendor, we believe that several other alternative vendors are available, if necessary.
During the third quarter of our
fiscal year 2020, we temporarily suspended the operation of the Flanigan’s Fish Company, LLC, a Florida limited
liability company (“FFC”) due to the decrease in demand for imported fresh fish caused by restrictions placed
upon the operation of our restaurants due to COVID-19, relying instead on outside fresh fish purveyors. The suspension of
operations lasted approximately 5 ½ weeks, after which we resumed operations. As of October 3, 2020, FFC supplies
certain of the fish to all of our restaurants. Since we hold the controlling interest of FFC, the balance sheet and operating
results of this entity are consolidated into the accompanying financial statements of the Company, but eliminated upon consolidation.
Sales and purchases of fish are recognized in restaurant food sales and restaurant and lounges (cost of merchandise sold),
respectively, in the consolidated statements of income at the time of sale to the restaurant. In addition, the 49% of FFC
owned by the unrelated third party is recognized as noncontrolling interest in our consolidated financial statements.

Purchase of Limited Partnership Interests
During our fiscal year 2020, we did
not purchase any limited partnership interests. During our fiscal year 2019, we purchased from one limited partner (who is not
an officer, director or family member of officers or directors) a limited partnership interest of 0.63% in a limited partnership
which owns a restaurant, for a purchase price of $4,800.
Franchise Program
At
October 3, 2020 and September 28, 2019, we were the franchisor of five units under franchise agreements. Of the five franchised
stores, three are combination restaurant/package liquor stores and two are restaurants (one of which we operate). Four franchised
stores are owned and operated by related parties as follows:
• James
G. Flanigan, our Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, and Michael B. Flanigan,
a member of our Board of Directors and James G. Flanigan’s brother, are each a 35.24% owner of a company which has a franchise
arrangement with us for the operation of a restaurant and adjacent package liquor store located in Coconut Grove, Florida (Store
#18).
• Patrick
J. Flanigan, brother to both James G. Flanigan and Michael B. Flanigan and a member of our Board of Directors, owns 100% of a company
which has a franchise arrangement with us for the operation of a combination restaurant/package liquor store located in Pompano
Beach, Florida (Store #43).
• Our
officers and directors collectively own 30% of the shareholder interest of a company which has a franchise arrangement with us
for the operation of a restaurant located in Deerfield Beach, Florida. The shareholder interest of James G. Flanigan’s family
represents an additional 60% of the total invested capital in this franchised location (Store #14).
• Patrick
J. Flanigan is the sole general partner and a 25% limited partner in a limited partnership which has a franchise arrangement with
us for the operation of a restaurant located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The Company is a 25% limited partner in this limited
partnership and officers and directors of the Company (excluding Patrick J. Flanigan) own an additional 31.9% limited partnership
interest in this franchised location (Store #15).
Under the franchise
agreements, we provide guidance, advice and management assistance to the franchisees. In addition and for an additional annual
fee of approximately $25,000, we also act as fiscal agent for the franchisees whereby we collect
all revenues and pay all expenses and distributions. We also, from time to time, advance

funds on behalf of
the franchisees for the cost of renovations. The resulting amounts receivable from and payable to these franchisees are reflected
in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as either an asset or a liability. We also agree to sponsor and manage cooperative
buying groups on behalf of the franchisees for the purchase of inventory. The franchise agreements provide for royalties to us
of approximately 3% of gross restaurant sales and 1% of gross package liquor sales. During our fiscal years 2020 and 2019, we earned
royalties of $666,000 and $751,000, respectively, from our related franchises. We are not currently offering or accepting new franchises.
Employment
Agreements/Bonuses
As of October 3, 2020 and September
28, 2019, we had no employment agreements.
Our Board of Directors
approved an annual performance bonus, with 14.75% of the corporate pre-tax net income, plus or minus non-recurring items, but before
depreciation and amortization in excess of $650,000 paid to the Chief Executive Officer and 5.25% paid to other members of management.
Bonuses for our fiscal years 2020 and 2019 amounted to approximately $933,000 and $1,444,000, respectively.
Our Board of Directors also approved
an annual performance bonus, with 5% of the pre-tax net income before depreciation and amortization from our restaurants in excess
of $1,875,000 and our share of the pre-tax net income before depreciation and amortization from the restaurants owned by the limited
partnerships paid to the Chief Operating Officer and 5% paid to the Chief Financial Officer. Bonuses for our fiscal years 2020
and 2019 amounted to approximately $679,000 and $970,000, respectively.
Management Agreements
Deerfield
Beach, Florida
Since January 2006,
we have managed “The Whale’s Rib”, a casual dining restaurant located in Deerfield Beach, Florida, pursuant to
a management agreement. We paid $500,000 in exchange for our rights to manage this restaurant. The management agreement was amortized
on a straight-line basis over the life of the initial term of the agreement, ten (10) years. The restaurant is owned by a third
party unaffiliated with us. In exchange for providing management, bookkeeping and related services, we receive one-half (½)
of the net profit, if any, from the operation of the restaurant. During the third quarter of our fiscal year 2011, the term of
the management agreement was extended through January 9, 2036. For the fiscal years ended October 3, 2020 and September 28, 2019,
we generated $150,000 and $375,000 of revenue respectively, from providing these management services.

NOTE 14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS OF
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We follow
FASB (ASC) Topic 820, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ”, for financial assets and liabilities and
for non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on at least an annual basis. Topic
820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an
orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for
assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous
market in which it would transact and consider assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or
liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and risk of non-performance. Topic 820 establishes a fair market
hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when
measuring fair value. Topic 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
• Level 1 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2 Inputs -- Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are either directly
or indirectly observable through correlation with market data. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in
active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs to evaluation
models or other pricing methodologies that do not require significant judgment because the inputs used in the model, such as interest
rates and volatility, can be corroborated by readily observable market data.
• Level 3 Inputs -- One or more significant inputs that are unobservable and supported by little
or no market activity, and that reflect the use of significant management judgment. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those
whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation
techniques, and significant management judgment or estimation.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
At October 3, 2020, we had two variable
rate debt instruments outstanding that are impacted by changes in interest rates. The interest rate of both variable rate debt
instruments is equal to the lender’s LIBOR Rate plus two and one-quarter percent (2.25%) per annum. The debt instruments
further provide that the “LIBOR Rate” is a rate of interest equal to the British Bankers Association LIBOR Rate or
successor thereto approved by the lender if the British Bankers Association is no longer making a LIBOR rate available. In January,
2013, we refinanced the mortgage loan encumbering the property where our combination package liquor store and restaurant located
at 4 N. Federal Highway, Hallandale, Florida, (Store #31) operates, which mortgage loan is held by an unaffiliated third party
lender (the “$1.405M Loan”). In December, 2016, we closed on a secured revolving line of credit which entitled us to
borrow, from time to time through December 28, 2017, up to $5,500,000 (the “Credit Line”), which on December 28, 2017
converted to the term loan (the “Term Loan”).

(Continued)
Interest Rate Swap
Agreements ( Continued)
As a means of managing our interest
rate risk on these debt instruments, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with our unrelated third party lender to convert
these variable rate debt obligations to fixed rates. We are currently party to the following two (2) interest rate swap agreements:
(i) One (1) interest rate swap agreement
entered into in January, 2013 relates to the $1.405M Loan (the “$1.405M Term Loan Swap”). The $1.405M Term Loan Swap
requires us to pay interest for a twenty (20) year period at a fixed rate of 4.35% on an initial amortizing notional principal
amount of $1,405,000, while receiving interest for the same period at LIBOR – 1 Month, plus 2.25%, on the same amortizing
notional principal amount. We determined that at October 3, 2020, the interest rate swap agreement is an effective hedging agreement
and the fair value was not material; and
(ii) The second interest rate swap
agreement entered into in December, 2016, which became effective December 28, 2017, relates to the Credit Line (the “Line
of Credit Swap”). The Line of Credit Swap requires us to pay interest for a five (5) year period, commencing December 28,
2017 at a fixed rate of 4.61% on an initial amortizing notional principal amount of $5,500,000, while receiving interest for the
same period at LIBOR – 1 Month, plus 2.25%, on the same amortizing notional principal amount. We determined that at October
3, 2020, the interest rate swap agreement is an effective hedging agreement and the fair value was not material.
NOTE 15. COMMON STOCK
Treasury Stock
Purchase
of Common Shares
During our fiscal
years 2020 and 2019, we did not purchase any shares of our common stock. As of October 3, 2020, we still have authority to purchase
65,414 shares of our common stock under the discretionary plan approved by the Board of Directors on May 17, 2007. Our current
repurchase plan has no expiration date and purchases under this program may be made from time to time on the open market and in
private transactions, depending on market conditions, up to a purchase price of price of $15 per share.
NOTE
16. BUSINESS SEGMENTS
We operate principally in two
reportable segments – package stores and restaurants. The operation of package stores consists of retail liquor sales
and related items. Information concerning the revenues and operating income for our fiscal years ended 2020 and 2019, and
identifiable assets for the two reportable segments in which we operate, are shown in the following table. Operating income
is total revenue less cost of merchandise sold and operating expenses relative to each segment. In computing operating
income, none of the following items have been included: interest expense, other non-operating income and expense and income
taxes. Identifiable assets by segment are those assets that are used in our operations in each segment. Corporate assets are
principally cash and real property, improvements, furniture, equipment and vehicles used at our corporate headquarters. We do
not have any operations outside of the United States and transactions between restaurants and package liquor stores are not
material.

NOTE 18. 401(k)
PLAN
Effective July 2004, we began sponsoring
a 401(k) retirement plan covering substantially all employees who meet certain eligibility requirements. Employees may contribute
elective deferrals to the plan up to amounts allowed under the Internal Revenue Code. We are not required to contribute to the
plan but may make discretionary profit sharing and matching contributions. During our fiscal years 2020 and 2019, we made discretionary
contributions of $81,000 and $74,000, respectively.
NOTE 19. SUBSEQUENT
EVENTS
Menu Price Increases
Effective November 29, 2020 we increased
menu prices for our bar offerings to target an increase to our bar revenues of approximately 1.83% annually and effective December
6, 2020 we increased menu prices for our food offerings to target an increase to our food revenues of approximately 2.45% annually
to offset higher food costs and higher overall expenses. Prior to these increases, we previously raised menu prices in the third
quarter of our fiscal year 2019.
Exercise of Options to Purchase
North Lauderdale, Florida (“Flanigan’s
Seafood Bar and Grill”/”Big Daddy’s Liquors”)
On October 7, 2014, we entered into
an Amendment to Lease Agreement (the “Lease Amendment”) with a non-affiliated third party from whom we rent approximately
4,600 square feet of commercial space located at 5450 N. State Road 7, North Lauderdale, Florida where we operate a combination
“Flanigan’s Seafood Bar and Grill” restaurant and “Big Daddy’s Liquors” package liquor store
(Store #40). The Lease Amendment extended the term of the Lease Agreement until December 31, 2020 and granted us the option to purchase,
(the “Option to Purchase”), the real property and improvements on December 31, 2020 for $1,200,000. During the fourth
quarter of our fiscal year 2020 we exercised the Option to Purchase and closed on December 31, 2020. We paid
all cash at closing.
Sunrise, Florida (“Flanigan’s
Seafood Bar and Grill”)
During the second quarter of our
fiscal year 2019, we entered into a Lease Agreement (the “Sunrise Lease Agreement”) with a non-affiliated third party
to rent approximately 6,900 square feet of commercial space located at 14301 W. Sunrise Boulevard, Sunrise, Florida where, subject
to certain conditions, we anticipate opening a new restaurant location. The Sunrise Lease Agreement grants us an option to purchase,
(the “Option to Purchase”) the real property and improvements by February 28, 2021. During the third quarter of our
fiscal year 2019, we assigned the Sunrise Lease Agreement, excluding the Option to Purchase, to a newly formed limited partnership.
Subsequent to the end of our fiscal year 2020, we exercised the Option to Purchase and anticipate closing during the second quarter
of our fiscal year 2021. We intend to pay all cash at closing.

a deductible of $10,000 per occurrence for both us and the limited partnerships. Our insurance carrier is responsible for $1,000,000
coverage per occurrence above our deductible, up to a maximum aggregate of $2,000,000 per year. We were also able to bind excess

our primary general liability insurance coverage. We are uninsured against liability claims in excess of $11,000,000 per occurrence
and in the aggregate. Certain expenses incurred in defending a claim, including attorney's fees, are a part of our $10,000 deductible.
