NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries ("Red Robin" or the "Company"), primarily operates, franchises, and develops full-service restaurants in North America. As of October 4, 2020, the Company owned and operated 444 restaurants located in 38 states. The Company also had 103 franchised full-service restaurants in 16 states and one Canadian province. The Company operates its business as one operating and one reportable segment.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Red Robin and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Red Robin have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements on Form 10-K have been condensed or omitted. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 29, 2019 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures required for audited annual financial statements. For further information, please refer to and read these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2019, filed with the SEC on February 25, 2020.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Income Taxes
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Update 2019-12, Income Taxes ("Topic 740") as part of its Simplification Initiative. This guidance provides amendments to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the full impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.
We reviewed all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and concluded they were either not applicable or not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
2. COVID-19 Pandemic
Overview
Due to the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic, we continue to navigate an unprecedented time for our business and industry. During the third quarter 2020, the Company continued to expand outdoor seating capacity at reopened Company-owned restaurants in accordance with local limits. Reopening dining rooms and expanding seating capacity was executed with the health, safety, and well-being of Red Robin's Team Members, Guests, and communities in mind, and strict adherence to US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, state, and local guidelines as our top priority. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a material adverse effect on our business, and we expect the impact from COVID-19 will continue to negatively affect our business.
Franchise Revenue
In response to COVID-19's effect on our franchise operations, we temporarily abated franchise royalty payments and advertising contributions effective March 20, 2020. During periods of abated payments, franchise revenue was not recognized or collected from our franchisees. Abated royalty payments and advertising contributions will not be collected by the Company. The Company began charging and collecting partial franchise royalty payments and advertising contributions during the latter half of the second fiscal quarter of 2020, which continued throughout the Company's third fiscal quarter. As of the end of the third quarter of 2020, the Company had resumed charging full royalty and advertising contributions to our franchisees. Franchised restaurants operate under contractual arrangements with the Company, and the payments specified in the franchise contracts are accounted for under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers .
Rent
In response to the impact of COVID-19 on our operations, beginning April 1, 2020 the Company stopped making full lease payments under its existing lease agreements. During the suspension of payments, the Company continued to recognize expenses and liabilities for lease obligations and corresponding right-of-use assets on the balance sheet in accordance with ASC Topic 842 .
We are engaging in ongoing constructive discussions with landlords regarding the potential restructuring of lease payments and rent concessions. As of October 4, 2020, the Company has contractually negotiated rent concessions with many of its landlords, with negotiations complete on approximately 50 % of its leases. The types of rent concessions the Company has negotiated include early termination, early renewal, rent deferral, and rent abatement.
For contractual rent concessions that do not substantially change the total cash flows of the lease, the Company has elected to account for these concessions assuming the existing lease agreements provide enforceable rights and obligations consistent with the relief issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board titled ASC Topic 842 and ASC Topic 840: Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic ("FASB Relief") . For leases where the rent concession did not substantially change the total cash flows, the concession was accounted for as a remeasurement to the lease liability based on the original discount rate with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset. Additionally, the classification of the leases was not reassessed. The Company recorded a $ 2.2 million remeasurement to increase the lease liability and right-of-use asset resulting from contractual rent concessions under the FASB relief during the third fiscal quarter of 2020.
7
For contractual rent concessions that substantially changed the total cash flows of the lease and did not qualify for the FASB relief, we applied the modification framework in accordance with ASC Topic 842 , Leases . The Company reassessed lease classification for rent concessions that did not qualify for the FASB relief. During the third fiscal quarter of 2020, it was concluded no leases changed classification between operating and finance. Based on updated discount rates, a $ 10.1 million remeasurement was recorded to increase the lease liability and a $ 9.9 million adjustment, net of broker's fees, was recorded to increase the right-of-use asset during the third fiscal quarter of 2020. Contractual rent concessions granted to the Company during the third fiscal quarter of 2020 did not grant the right to use additional assets not included in the original lease contracts, so no separate contracts were accounted for as part of the rent concession modifications.
Restaurant Assets
During the twelve weeks ended October 4, 2020, the Company recognized $ 3.3 million of impairment related to assets at two permanently closed Company-owned restaurants. These impairment charges were included in Restaurant closure and refranchising costs in Other charges (gains) on the condensed consolidated statements of operation and comprehensive loss.
Income Tax
The March 19, 2020 passage of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") created an opportunity for the Company to carry back 2019 and 2020 net operating losses ("NOL's"). Upon filing of its 2019 federal tax return during the third quarter of 2020 and gaining further interpretations and expert technical guidance surrounding the application of the CARES Act, the Company recorded an additional $ 42.8 million in federal income tax receivables to Income tax receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and recorded a related income tax benefit to the condensed consolidated statements of operation and comprehensive loss. After consideration for the adjustments of carrybacks due to the CARES Act, we have a combined federal and state valuation allowance of $ 67.1 million, which was recorded to Other assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Subsequent to our third quarter balance sheet date, the Company received $ 49.4 million in cash tax refunds, including interest, and currently expects to receive between $ 12 million to $ 15 million of additional cash tax refunds within the next 12 months. A portion of this refund was used to make a $ 42 million repayment on the Company's credit facility on October 30, 2020.
As of October 4, 2020, the Company had $ 9.7 million of net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes that arose from the 2019 and 2020 tax years. The Company reclassified this amount from state tax current receivable which was recorded in Prepaid expenses and other current assets as of our second fiscal quarter of 2020, to state deferred tax asset which is recorded to Other Assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as a result of the CARES Act legislation and in conjunction with the filing of our state tax returns during our third fiscal quarter. Of these state net operating loss carryforwards, approximately $ 0.2 million may expire, if unused, in 2024. The remaining state net operating losses approximating $ 9.5 million may expire, if unused, through 2039 or in some cases will be retained for an indefinite period. The utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be limited to 80% of taxable income in any given year. As states' CARES legislation continues to evolve these estimates may change. The total $ 67.1 million valuation allowance includes the $ 9.7 million state NOL's recorded as of October 4, 2020.

6. Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share amounts are calculated based upon the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation in periods in which they have an anti-dilutive effect. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if holders of options exercised their options into common stock.
The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the effect of outstanding stock options. Basic weighted average shares outstanding is reconciled to diluted weighted average shares outstanding as follows (in thousands):

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on the condensed consolidated financial statements on a nonrecurring basis include items such as property, plant and equipment, right of use assets, goodwill, and other intangible assets. These assets are measured at fair value if determined to be impaired.
The Company has measured non-financial assets for impairment using continuing and projected future cash flows, which were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represented a level 3 fair value measurement. Based on our restaurant asset impairment analyses during fiscal year 2020, we impaired long-lived assets at 36 Company-owned restaurants with carrying values of $ 61.4 million. We determined the fair value of these long-lived restaurant assets to be $ 34.9 million. During fiscal year 2019, we impaired long-lived assets at 29 Company-owned restaurants with carrying values of $ 17.3 million. We determined the fair value of these long-lived restaurant assets to be $ 2.2 million.
Disclosures of Fair Value of Other Assets and Liabilities
The Company's liability under its credit facility is carried at historical cost in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Due to market interest rates decreasing during fiscal year 2020, the Company determined the carrying value of the liability under its credit facility did not approximate fair value. The carrying value and fair value of the credit facility as of October 4, 2020 were $ 215.2 million and $ 218.6 million. As of December 29, 2019, the carrying value of the credit facility approximated fair value as the interest rate on the instrument approximated current market rates. The interest rate on the credit facility represents a level 2 fair value input.
10. Commitments and Contingencies
On July 14, 2017, a current hourly employee filed a class action lawsuit alleging that the Company failed to provide required meal breaks and rest periods and failed to reimburse business expenses, among other claims. The case is styled Manuel Vigueras v. Red Robin International, Inc. and is currently pending before the United States District Court in Santa Ana, California. In a related action, on September 21, 2017, a companion case, styled Genny Vasquez v. Red Robin International, Inc. was filed and is currently pending in California Superior Court in Santa Ana, California and involves claims under the California Private Attorneys' General Act that partially overlap the claims made in the Vigueras matter. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company reached a tentative settlement agreement resolving all claims and the cost of class administration in both cases for an aggregate $ 8.5 million. The Company is in the process of finalizing the settlement agreement, which will then be submitted to the court for approval. Court approval is required before any settlement agreement between the parties becomes final. An additional $ 4.5 million was accrued to reach the $ 8.5 million settlement amount during the first fiscal quarter of 2020. Amounts recorded in the periods presented for litigation contingencies are disclosed in Note 7, Other Charges .
In the normal course of business, there are various claims in process, matters in litigation, and other contingencies. These include employment-related claims and claims alleging illness, injury, or other food quality, health, or operational issues. Evaluating contingencies related to litigation is a complex process involving subjective judgment on the potential outcome of future events, and the ultimate resolution of litigated claims may differ from our current analysis. We review the adequacy of accruals and disclosures pertaining to litigation matters each quarter in consultation with legal counsel, and we assess the probability and range of possible losses associated with contingencies for potential accrual in the consolidated financial statements. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of these claims with certainty, management is of the opinion that adequate provision for potential losses associated with these matters has been made in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
