On October 29, 2012, Hurricane Sandy struck the Northeastern United States, which forced the temporary closing of all of the Company-owned restaurants. Seventy-eight franchised restaurants, including 18 Branded Menu locations, also closed for varying periods of time, one of which remains closed. Our Company-owned restaurant in Oceanside, New York was closed for approximately two weeks. The new Coney Island Boardwalk restaurant sustained minor damage and re-opened on March 18, 2013. Our flagship Coney Island restaurant incurred significant damage, and re-opened on May 20, 2013. On November 25, 2012, we closed the Company-owned restaurant in Yonkers, New York which was demolished as a part of a redevelopment of the property which will include a new Nathan's Company-owned restaurant that we anticipate opening in December 2013. The Company also reported the following: •As previously disclosed, Nathan's entered into an agreement with John Morrell & Co, a subsidiary of Smithfield Foods, Inc. (SFD) to become Nathan's exclusive licensee to manufacture and sell branded hot dog, sausage and corned beef products at retail. The agreement begins on March 2, 2014 for a term of 18 years providing royalties of 10.8% of net sales, subject to annual minimum royalties which start at $10 million in the first year and increase annually throughout the term. •Sales from the Branded Product Program, featuring the sale of Nathan's hot dogs to the foodservice industry, increased 12.2% to $43,214,000 during the fifty-three weeks ended March 31, 2013, as compared to sales of $38,507,000 during the fifty-two weeks ended March 25, 2012. •Sales from the five Company-owned restaurants were $13,403,000 during the fifty-three weeks ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $13,208,000 during fifty-two weeks ended March 25, 2012. •Gross profit increased to 20.8% of sales during fifty-three weeks ended March 31, 2013, as compared to 19.6% of sales during the fifty-two weeks ended March 25, 2012 due to improved margins from our Branded Product Program and the impact of the closed restaurants during the winter months. •Retail license royalties increased 13.8% or $1,045,000 to $8,631,000 during the fifty-three weeks ended March 31, 2013, as compared to $7,586,000 during the fifty-two weeks ended March 25, 2012. •Revenues from franchise operations were $5,782,000 during the fifty-three weeks ended March 31, 2013, as compared to $5,586,000 during the fifty-two weeks ended March 25, 2012. Forty new franchised units were opened during the fifty-three weeks ended March 31, 2013, including our first two mobile trucks, our first locations in Turkey and Mexico City, our sixth restaurant in the Dominican Republic and twenty Branded Menu Program outlets. •Nathan's opened its first restaurants in each of Turkey and Mexico City, pursuant to the Master Development Agreements executed this year for the Republic of Turkey, including the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and Mexico City, Mexico. •In April 2012, we opened our newly relocated seasonal restaurant on the Boardwalk in Coney Island, New York. As previously described with respect to our litigation with SMG, on April 7, 2011, the Court entered a stipulation and order which granted a stay of enforcement of the final judgment which is in the amount of approximately $4,910,000. On April 3, 2013, Nathan's filed a Petition for Leave to Appeal with the Supreme Court of the State of Illinois and is awaiting a decision whether they will hear the case. Throughout the duration of the appeal, Nathan's is required to deposit post-judgment interest on the damages awarded at 9% per annum into a security account. Nathan's has continued to make these deposits and recorded interest expense of approximately $276,000, and $266,000 net of tax, during the fiscal periods ended March 31, 2013 and March 25, 2012, respectively. Certain Non-GAAP Financial Information: In addition to disclosing results that are determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), the Company has provided its non-GAAP earnings and earnings per diluted share as adjusted for the litigation expenses described above, including the interest expense that has accrued during the appeals process through the end of the fourth quarter, that the Company believes impacts the comparability of its results of operations. The Company believes that such non-GAAP financial information is useful to investors to assist in assessing and understanding the Company's operating performance and underlying trends in the Company's business because management considers the litigation expenses referred to above to be outside the Company's normal operating results. This non-GAAP financial information is among the indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating the Company's financial and operating performance. The presentation of this additional non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or alternative to, earnings and earnings per diluted share determined in accordance with GAAP. Analysis of results and outlook on a non-GAAP basis should be used as a complement to, and in conjunction with, data presented in accordance with GAAP. About Nathan's Famous Nathan's products are currently distributed in 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, the Cayman Islands and six foreign countries through its foodservice sales programs, product licensing activities and restaurant system. Last year, approximately 430 million Nathan's Famous hot dogs were sold. For additional information about Nathan's please visit our website at www.nathansfamous.com.
