Bob Wright, President and Chief Executive Officer of Potbelly Corporation, commented, “I am extremely proud of our team, and I’m pleased with our performance in the third quarter, which delivered notable top-line expansion. Our disciplined focus on Potbelly’s five-pillar strategy, including the successful rollout of our upgraded menu and new tech stack drove strong results for the quarter, helping us offset labor and other inflationary headwinds impacting the restaurant industry and the broader economy. During the quarter, we continued to see strong sales growth across our Urban, Suburban, Drive-Thru, and University locations. CBD and Airport shops made further progress on their path towards recovery as well. Potbelly’s continued digital strength coupled with sequential growth in dine-in business further contributed to the Company’s success in the quarter. Importantly, we continue to see positive responses from customers since the rollout of our new menu, release of our new tech stack and scaling of our digital media campaigns.”
“As we enter the final quarter of 2021, our primary focus is the continued execution of the Company’s business priorities. We are also finalizing our three-year strategic growth plan,” Wright added. “We’re taking a longer-range view on our five-pillar strategy and growth objectives, with a focus on identifying the recipe for growth that will become the foundation of Potbelly’s value creation model. The elements of that growth plan will include targeting a significantly higher AUV, expanding margins beyond historical levels, and escalating new unit development as we transition to more of a franchised system. We are very excited to finalize our growth plan which we believe will deliver value to all of our stakeholders. We will provide further updates on these goals in early 2022.”
Steve Cirulis, Chief Financial Officer, concluded, “We achieved solid financial performance during the third quarter, delivering our second consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, and our third consecutive quarter of shop-level profitability. As we progress through the remainder of 2021 and enter 2022, we’ll continue to navigate the headwinds driven by macro-economic issues including labor constraints, higher wage costs, and other inflationary dynamics. Potbelly is aggressively implementing mitigating actions which include accelerating recruiting efforts and taking pricing action as necessary in accordance with cost cutting initiatives. As we continue to see our dedicated customers return to shops across our portfolio, we are confident in Potbelly’s ability to achieve future growth.”

Definitions
The following definitions apply to these terms as used throughout this press release:

Company-operated comparable store sales or same-store traffic – represents the change in year-over-year sales or transactions for the comparable company-operated store base open for 15 months or longer. |
|
|
• |
Average Unit Volumes (AUV) – represents the average sales of all company-operated shops which reported sales during the associated time period. |
|
|
• |
EBITDA – represents income before depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense and the provision for income taxes. |
|
|
• |
Adjusted EBITDA – represents income before depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense and the provision for income taxes, adjusted to eliminate the impact of other items, including certain non-cash as well as other items that we do not consider representative of our ongoing operating performance. |

1Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Within this press release, we make reference to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted EPS, adjusted net loss, shop-level profit, and shop-level profit margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company includes these non-GAAP financial measures because management believes they are useful to investors in that they provide for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision making.
Management uses adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS to evaluate the Company’s performance and in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted diluted EPS exclude the impact of certain non-cash charges and other special items that affect the comparability of results in past quarters. Management uses shop-level profit and shop-level profit margin as key metrics to evaluate the profitability of incremental sales at our shops, to evaluate our shop performance across periods and to evaluate our shop financial performance against our competitors.
Accordingly, the Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures, when used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, is a useful financial analysis tool that can assist investors in assessing the Company’s operating performance and underlying prospects. This analysis should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. This analysis, as well as the other information in this press release, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and footnotes contained in the documents that the Company files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company in this press release may be different from the methods used by other companies. For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please refer to the table, “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Financial Measures.”
