THE ONE GROUP HOSPITALITY, INC.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Summary of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Business

The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a global restaurant company that develops, owns and operates, manages and licenses upscale and polished casual, high-energy restaurants and lounges and provides turn-key food and beverage (“F&B”) services and consulting services for hospitality venues including hotels, casinos and other high-end locations. Turn-key F&B services are food and beverage services that can be scaled, customized and implemented by the Company at a particular hospitality venue and customized for the client. The Company’s primary restaurant brands are STK, a multi-unit steakhouse concept that combines a high-energy, social atmosphere with the quality and service of a traditional upscale steakhouse, and Kona Grill, a polished casual bar-centric grill concept featuring American favorites, award-winning sushi, and specialty cocktails in a polished casual atmosphere.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company owned, operated, managed, or licensed 61 venues, including 23 STKs and 24 Kona Grills in major metropolitan cities in North America, Europe and the Middle East and 14 F&B venues in seven hotels and casinos in the United States and Europe. For those restaurants and venues that are managed or licensed, the Company generates management fees based on top-line revenues and incentive fee revenue based on a percentage of the location’s revenues and profits.

COVID-19

In response to COVID-19, the Company has taken significant steps to adapt its business to increase sales while providing a safe environment for guests and employees. COVID-19 related expenses were zero and $2.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $1.1 million and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, composed primarily of sanitation, supplies and safety precautions taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (“condensed consolidated financial statements”) of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited financial statements have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Additionally, the Company believes that the disclosures are sufficient for interim financial reporting purposes.

Change in Accounting Estimate

Effective April 1, 2022, the Company changed its estimated useful life of the Kona Grill trade name. Based upon the strong performance of the Kona Grill restaurants over the twelve months ended March 31, 2022, significant capital investments in both existing and new restaurants and the Company’s commitment to expand the Kona Grill brand with the opening of new restaurants, the Company has determined that the Kona Grill trade name has an indefinite life rather than the twenty-year life previously determined. The Company currently has two Kona Grill venues under construction in Riverton, Utah and Columbus, Ohio and plans to open three to five Kona Grills each year for the foreseeable future. The effect of this change in estimate will reduce depreciation and amortization expense by $0.9 million annually, increase net income by $0.9 million annually, and increase basic and diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.03 annually based upon the current number of shares outstanding.

As a result of the above change, the Company updated its accounting policy for Intangible Assets and will test for impairment annually on November 1^st or on an interim basis if events or changes in circumstances between annual tests indicate a potential impairment.

Prior Period Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of the 2021 amounts in the segment reporting footnote have been made to conform to the current year presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB “) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU“) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This update requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires a consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact on its financial statements.

Capitalized interest was $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $1.4 million in standby letters of credit outstanding for certain restaurants and $5.6 million available in its revolving credit facility, subject to certain conditions.

Credit and Guaranty Agreement

On October 4, 2019, in conjunction with the acquisition of Kona Grill, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Goldman Sachs Bank USA (the “Credit Agreement”). On August 6, 2021, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date for both the term loan and revolving credit facility to August 2026. The Credit Agreement provides for a secured revolving credit facility of $12.0 million and a $25.0 million term loan (reduced from $48.0 million). The term loan is payable in quarterly installments of $0.1 million, with the final payment due in August 2026.

The amended Credit Agreement has several borrowing and interest rate options, including the following: (a) a LIBOR rate (or a comparable successor rate) subject to a 1.00% floor or (b) a base rate equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (iii) the LIBOR rate for a one-month period plus 1.00% or (iv) 4.00%. Loans under the amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus an interest rate margin of 5.00% (for LIBOR rate loans) and 4.00%

9

(for base rate loans). Upon the cessation of LIBOR, the amended Credit Agreement provides for the use of a benchmark replacement as defined in the amended Credit Agreement.

In conjunction with the amended Credit Agreement, the Company made a pre-payment on the loan of $22.2 million and incurred $0.9 million in debt issuance costs. The Company accounted for the amendment as a debt modification with a partial extinguishment and recognized a loss on early debt extinguishment of $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and $0.1 million in transaction costs.

The Company’s weighted average interest rate on the borrowings under the amended Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was 6.6% and 6.0%, respectively.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and conditions to borrowing including customary affirmative and negative covenants, which include covenants that limit or restrict the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness and other obligations, grant liens to secure obligations, make investments, merge or consolidate, alter the organizational structure of the Company and its subsidiaries, and dispose of assets outside the ordinary course of business, in each case subject to customary exceptions for credit facilities of this size and type.

The Company and certain operating subsidiaries of the Company guarantee the obligations under the amended Credit Agreement, which also are secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $0.9 million of debt issuance costs related to the amended Credit Agreement, which were capitalized and are recorded as a direct deduction to long-term debt and $0.5 million in debt issuance costs recorded in Other Assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants required by the Credit Agreement.

Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Long-lived assets are measured and disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis if an impairment is identified. There were no long-lived assets measured at fair value as of September 30, 2022.

The Company’s long-term debt, including the current portion, is carried at cost on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Fair value of long-term debt, including the current portion, is valued using Level 2 inputs including current applicable rates for similar instruments and approximates the carrying value of such obligations.

Note 7 – Income taxes

Income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are recorded at the Company’s estimated annual effective income tax rate, subject to adjustments for discrete events, should they occur. The Company’s effective income tax rate including discrete events was (573.2%) and 8.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 11.3% and 7.7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The negative rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily the result of credits and discrete events exceeding pre-tax book income for the quarter. The Company’s annualized effective tax rate is estimated at approximately 15.9% for 2022. The Company’s projected annual effective tax rate differs from the statutory U.S. tax rate of 21% primarily due to the following: (i) tax credits for FICA taxes on certain employees’ tips (ii) taxes owed in foreign jurisdictions with tax rates that differ from the U.S. statutory rate; (iii) taxes owed in state and local jurisdictions; and (iv) the tax effect of non-deductible compensation. Income tax provision recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 included the discrete period tax benefits resulting from the vesting of restricted stock units.

The CARES Act includes provisions allowing for the carryback of net operating losses generated for specific periods and technical amendments regarding the expensing of qualified improvement property. The CARES Act also allows for the deferral of the employer-paid portion of social security taxes, which the Company has elected to defer and will pay by December 31, 2022.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal, state, local and various foreign income taxes for the jurisdictions in which it operates. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal, state, local and foreign taxing authorities. There are no ongoing federal, state, local, or foreign tax examinations as of September 30, 2022.

Weighted average remaining lease term – operating leases		13 years			13 years
Weighted average discount rate – operating leases		8.37	%		8.49	%

Due to the negative effects of COVID-19, the Company implemented measures to reduce its costs, including negotiations with landlords regarding rent concessions. As the rent concessions received do not result in a significant increase in cash payments, the Company elected to account for these concessions as a variable lease payment in accordance with ASC Topic 842. The Company’s right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities have not been remeasured for lease concessions received. Variable lease cost is comprised of percentage rent and common area maintenance, offset by rent concessions received as a result of COVID-19.

11

The Company has entered into two operating leases for future STK restaurants in Charlotte, North Carolina and Los Angeles, California that have not commenced as of September 30, 2022. The present value of the aggregate future commitment related to these leases, net of tenant improvement allowances received from the landlord, is estimated to be $3.5 million. The Company expects these leases, which have an initial lease term of 10 years and one or two 5-year options, to commence within the next twelve months.

Note 10 – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and income available to common stockholders. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the dilutive effect of potential shares of common stock including common stock issuable pursuant to stock options, warrants, and restricted stock units.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the net income per share was calculated as follows (in thousands, except net income per share and related share data):

	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Net income attributable to The One Group Hospitality, Inc.	$	482	$	11,671	$	8,455	$	25,577
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		32,663,549		31,993,557		32,496,780		30,830,521
Dilutive effect of stock options, warrants and restricted share units		1,257,949		2,387,016		1,565,881		3,393,336
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		33,921,498		34,380,573		34,062,661		34,223,857
Net income available to common stockholders per share - Basic	$	0.01	$	0.36	$	0.26	$	0.83
Net income available to common stockholders per share - Diluted	$	0.01	$	0.34	$	0.25	$	0.75

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, a nominal amount of stock options, warrants and restricted share units were determined to be anti-dilutive and were therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

A summary of the status of the Company’s non-vested stock options as of September 30, 2022 and changes during the nine months then ended, is presented below:

		Weighted average

Restricted Stock Unit Activity

The Company issues restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2019 Equity Plan. RSUs in the table below include both time based and market condition-based awards. The fair value of time-based RSUs is determined based upon the closing fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.

Awards granted during the third quarter of 2022 included 500,000 RSUs with both a market condition and time element (“Barrier RSUs”). These Barrier RSUs may be earned based on achieving common stock price targets within a 48-month period and, if earned,

13

will vest and be settled based on a time element as outlined in the RSU agreement governing the Barrier RSUs. To value the Barrier RSUs, the Company, with the assistance of a third-party specialist, calculated the fair value of Barrier RSUs using the Monte Carlo Simulation, a risk-free rate of 3.31%, a starting common stock value of $6.95, volatility of 73%, and a standard normal distribution. The Company valued the Barrier RSUs at $3.1 million and will amortize that amount evenly over 48 months. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded $0.1 million of stock-based compensation expense associated with these awards.

A summary of the status of RSUs and changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is presented below:

Warrants

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were outstanding warrants to purchase 125,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.63.

Business Summary

We are a global restaurant company that develops, owns and operates, manages and licenses upscale and polished casual, high-energy restaurants and lounges and provides turn-key food and beverage (“F&B”) services and consulting service for hospitality venues including hotels, casinos and other high-end locations. Turn-key F&B services are food and beverage services that can be scaled, customized and implemented by us for the client at a particular hospitality venue. Our vision is to be a global market leader in the hospitality industry by melding high-quality service, ambiance, high-energy and cuisine into one great experience that we refer to as “Vibe Dining”. We design all our restaurants, lounges and F&B services to create a social dining and high-energy entertainment experience within a destination location.

Our primary restaurant brands are STK, a multi-unit steakhouse concept that combines a high-energy, social atmosphere with the quality and service of a traditional upscale steakhouse, and Kona Grill, a polished casual bar-centric grill concept featuring American favorites, award-winning sushi, and specialty cocktails in a polished casual atmosphere. Our F&B hospitality management services are marketed as ONE Hospitality and include developing, managing and operating restaurants, bars, rooftop lounges, pools, banqueting and catering facilities, private dining rooms, room service and mini bars tailored to the specific needs of high-end hotels and casinos. We also provide hospitality advisory and consulting services to certain clients.

We opened our first restaurant in January 2004 in New York, New York, and, as of September 30, 2022, we owned, operated, managed or licensed 61 venues including 23 STKs and 24 Kona Grills in major metropolitan cities in North America, Europe and the Middle East and 14 F&B venues operated under ONE Hospitality in seven hotels and casinos throughout the United States and Europe. In August 2022, we opened an owned STK restaurant in San Francisco, California and a licensed virtual location in

conjunction with REEF Kitchens in Austin, Texas that features offerings from Kona Grill and Bao Yum. In November 2022, we opened an owned STK restaurant in Dallas, Texas. For those restaurants and venues that are managed or licensed, we generate management fee revenue based on top-line revenues and incentive fee revenue based on a percentage of the location’s revenues and net profits.

The table below reflects our venues by restaurant brand and geographic location as of September 30, 2022:

(2) Includes concepts under the Company’s F&B hospitality management agreements and other venue brands such as ANGEL, Bao Yum, Heliot, Hideout, Marconi, Radio and Rivershore Bar & Grill.

Our Growth Strategies and Outlook

Our growth model is primarily driven by the following:

● Expansion of our STK and Kona Grill Restaurants

● Expansion through New F&B Hospitality Projects

● Increase Same Store Sales and Increase Our Operating Efficiency

● Acquisitions

We intend to open at least nine new venues in 2022 and the first quarter of 2023, of which three are currently open. We have opened Company-owned STK restaurants in San Francisco, CA and Dallas, TX and a licensed virtual location in conjunction with REEF Kitchens in Austin, Texas that features offerings from Kona Grill and Bao Yum. There are currently three Company-owned Kona Grill restaurants (Riverton, UT, Columbus, OH, and Phoenix, AZ) and one managed STK restaurant (Stratford, UK) under development. In addition, in conjunction with REEF Kitchens, we plan to test and open two additional licensed units in Texas for takeout and delivery only. These units will feature offerings from our Kona Grill and Bao Yum concepts. As our footprint increases, we expect to benefit by leveraging system-wide operating efficiencies and best practices through the management of our general and administrative expenses as a percentage of overall revenue.

COVID-19

In response to COVID-19, we have taken significant steps to adapt our business to increase sales while providing a safe environment for guests and employees. COVID-19 related expenses were zero and $2.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $1.1 million and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, composed primarily of sanitation, supplies and safety precautions taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

In the first quarter of 2022, one of our licensees permanently closed an STK restaurant in Mexico City as a result of COVID-19.

Executive Summary

Total revenues increased $1.2 million, or 1.6% to $73.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $71.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 primarily due to the opening of STK San Francisco in August 2022.

Restaurant operating profit decreased $2.5 million, or 21.3% to $9.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $11.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 primarily due to higher labor and related costs. Operating income decreased $4.6 million to $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to operating income of $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 primarily due to pre-opening expenses for the 2022 and 2023 openings, lower restaurant level operating profit and lower management, license and incentive fee revenue.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant Operating Profit are presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to supplement other measures of financial performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant Operating Profit are not required by, or presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). We define EBITDA as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash rent expense, pre-opening expenses, lease termination expenses, stock-based compensation, COVID-19 related expenses and non-recurring gains and losses. Not all of the items defining Adjusted EBITDA occur in each reporting period but have been included in our definitions of these terms based on our historical activity. We define Restaurant Operating Profit as owned restaurant net revenue minus owned restaurant cost of sales and owned restaurant operating expenses.

We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant Operating Profit are appropriate measures of our operating performance because they eliminate non-cash or non-recurring expenses that do not reflect our underlying business performance. We believe Restaurant Operating Profit is an important component of financial results because: (i) it is a widely used metric within the restaurant industry to evaluate restaurant-level productivity, efficiency, and performance, and (ii) we use Restaurant Operating Profit as a key metric to evaluate our restaurant financial performance compared to our competitors. We use these metrics to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period, to analyze the factors and trends affecting our business and to evaluate the performance of our restaurants. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies; accordingly, you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is a key measure used by management. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant Operating Profit are frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Restaurant Operating Profit, alongside other GAAP measures such as net income, to measure profitability, as a key profitability target in our budgets, and to compare our performance against that of peer companies despite possible differences in calculation.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

Revenues

Owned restaurant net revenue. Owned restaurant net revenue increased $1.5 million, or 2.3%, to $69.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $68.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the opening of STK San Francisco in August 2022, partially offset by the impact of Hurricane Ian which affected 14% of our sales base. Comparable restaurant sales increased 0.5% for the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021.

Management, license and incentive fee revenue. Management and license fee revenues decreased $0.4 million, or 10.8%, to $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by decreased revenues in our managed properties in London, England.

Cost and Expenses

Owned restaurant cost of sales. Food and beverage costs for owned restaurants decreased $0.4 million, or 2.5%, to $17.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $17.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. As a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue, cost of sales decreased 120 basis points from 26.1% in the three months ended September 30, 2021 to 24.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to operational cost reduction initiatives partially offset by increased commodity prices.

Owned restaurant operating expenses. Owned restaurant operating expenses increased $4.5 million to $43.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $38.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Owned restaurant operating expenses as a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue increased 510 basis points from 56.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2021 to 62.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to consolidated higher average wage and operating costs.

General and administrative. General and administrative costs increased $0.4 million, or 8.2%, to $6.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $6.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase was attributable to additional investments required ahead of growth, increased accounting and legal fees and increased stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by a decrease in performance based variable compensation. In addition, the Company experienced increased travel expenses due to rising hotel and airfare costs. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative costs were 8.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 8.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $2.9 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

a percentage of revenues, general and administrative costs were 9.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 8.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $8.6 million and $7.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Pre-opening expenses. In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we incurred $3.8 million of pre-opening expenses primarily related to payroll, training and non-cash pre-open rent for STK San Francisco which opened in August 2022 and STK Dallas, Kona Grill Riverton, and Kona Grill Columbus which are currently under construction. Total pre-opening expenses related to non-cash pre-open rent was $0.6 million. Pre-opening expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were $0.8 million primarily related to STK Bellevue which opened in July 2021. Detail of pre-opening expenses by category is provided in the table below for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 (in thousands).

	Preopen Expenses		Preopen Rent		Total
Training Team	$	708	$	—	$	708

Total	$	2,969	$	864	$	3,833

(1)Includes STK San Francisco, STK Dallas, Kona Grill Riverton, Kona Grill Columbus and other venues under development

COVID-19 related expenses. COVID-19 related expenses were $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $3.8 million in the prior year period. COVID-19 related expenses are composed primarily of sanitation, supplies and safety precautions taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net was $1.4 million and $3.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. In conjunction with the amended Credit Agreement in August 2021, we made a $22.2 million pre-payment on the loan and reduced the interest rate on the loan.

(Benefit) provision for income taxes. The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $0.7 million compared to $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. We estimate our 2022 annualized effective tax rate will be 15.9%.

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest was $0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to net income of $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Executive Summary

Our principal liquidity requirements are to meet our lease obligations, working capital and capital expenditure needs and to pay principal and interest on outstanding debt. Subject to our operating performance, which, if significantly adversely affected, would adversely affect the availability of funds, we expect to finance our operations for at least the next 12 months, including the costs of opening currently planned new restaurants, through cash provided by operations and construction allowances provided by landlords of certain locations. We also may borrow on our revolving credit facility or issue equity to support ongoing business and fund additional expansion. We believe these sources of financing are adequate to support our immediate business operations and plans. As of September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $17.5 million and $29.4 million in long-term debt, which consisted of borrowings under our Credit Agreement. As of September 30, 2022, the availability on our revolving credit facility was $5.6 million, subject to certain conditions.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, capital expenditures were $21.3 million of which $13.3 million related to the construction of new STK and Kona Grill restaurants and $8.0 million for existing restaurants. Net capital expenditures, inclusive of $2.1 million in landlord contributions, was $19.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Capital expenditures by type for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is provided below (in thousands).

Other		—		—		545		545
Total	$	14,783	$	5,981	$	545	$	21,309

Our future cash requirements will depend on many factors, including the pace of expansion, conditions in the retail property development market, construction costs, the nature of the specific sites selected for new restaurants, and the nature of the specific leases and associated tenant improvement allowances available, if any, as negotiated with landlords.

Our operations have not required significant working capital, and, like many restaurant companies, we may have negative working capital during the year. Revenues are received primarily in credit card or cash receipts, and restaurant operations do not require significant receivables or inventories, other than our wine inventory. In addition, we receive trade credit for the purchase of food, beverages and supplies, thereby reducing the need for incremental working capital to support growth.

Credit Agreement

On October 4, 2019, in conjunction with the acquisition of Kona Grill, we entered into our Credit Agreement with Goldman Sachs Bank USA. On August 6, 2021, we entered into the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date for both the term loan and revolving credit facility to August 2026. The Credit Agreement provides for a secured revolving credit facility of $12.0 million and a $25.0 million term loan (reduced from $48.0 million). The term loan is payable in quarterly installments of $0.1 million, with the final payment due in August 2026.

The amended Credit Agreement has several borrowing and interest rate options, including the following: (a) a LIBOR rate (or a comparable successor rate) subject to a 1.00% floor (b) a base rate equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (iii) the LIBOR rate for a one-month period plus 1.00% or (iv) 4.00%. Loans under the amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus an interest rate margin of 5.00% (for LIBOR rate loans) and 4.00% (for base rate loans).

As of September 30, 2022, we were compliant with the covenants required by the amended Credit Agreement. Based on current projections, we believe that we would continue to comply with the covenants in the Credit Agreement, as amended, throughout the twelve months following the issuance of the financial statements.

Refer to Note 5 and Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information regarding the terms of our long-term debt arrangements and information regarding our commitments and contingencies.

Capital Expenditures and Lease Arrangements

When we open new Company-owned restaurants, our capital expenditures for construction increase. For owned restaurants, where we build from a shell state, we have typically targeted an average cash investment of approximately $3.8 million for a 10,000 square-foot STK restaurant and anticipate approximately $2.5 million for an 8,000 square-foot Kona Grill restaurant, in each case, net of landlord contributions and excluding pre-opening costs. For STK locations where we may be the successor restaurant tenant, we anticipate total cash investment in the $2.0 million to $3.0 million range. Typical pre-opening costs, excluding non-cash rent, are $0.3 million to $0.5 million. In addition, some of our existing restaurants will require capital improvements to either maintain or improve the facilities. We may add seating or provide enclosures for outdoor space in the next twelve months for some of our locations, which we expect will increase revenues for those locations.

Our hospitality F&B venues typically require limited capital investment from us. Capital expenditures for these projects will primarily be funded by cash flows from operations depending upon the timing of these expenditures and cash availability.

We typically seek to lease our restaurant locations for periods of 10 to 20 years under operating lease arrangements, with a limited number of renewal options. Our rent structure varies, but our leases generally provide for the payment of both minimum and contingent rent based on sales, as well as other expenses related to the leases such as our pro-rata share of common area maintenance, property tax and insurance expenses. Many of our lease arrangements include the opportunity to secure tenant improvement allowances to partially offset the cost of developing and opening the related restaurants. Generally, landlords recover the cost of such

26

allowances from increased minimum rents. However, there can be no assurance that such allowances will be available to us on each project that we select for development.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands):

	For the nine months ended September 30,
	2022		2021
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	16,336	$	23,030
Investing activities		(21,309)		(8,112)
Financing activities		(803)		(20,188)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash		(361)		(37)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(6,137)	$	(5,307)

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $16.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $23.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash provided by operating activities was driven by strong net income from higher sales volumes and collection on accounts receivables partially offset by payments on accrued expenses including payments for lease settlements.

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $21.3 million primarily for the construction of STK restaurants in Dallas, Texas and San Francisco, California, and Kona Grill restaurants in Riverton, Utah and Columbus, Ohio, as well as capital expenditures for existing restaurants compared to $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $0.8 million. We borrowed $5.0 million against the revolving line of credit, offset by the purchase and retirement of $3.5 million in common stock and $2.0 million to pay employee taxes for shares withheld upon the vesting of restricted stock units. Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $20.2 million primarily attributable to the partial paydown of the term loan in conjunction with the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a detailed description of recent accounting pronouncements. We do not expect the recent accounting pronouncements discussed in Note 1 to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Critical Accounting Estimates

In addition to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, we have added a critical accounting estimate with respect to indefinite-lived intangible assets.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or changes in circumstances between annual tests indicate a potential impairment. First, we determine if, based on qualitative factors, it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. Factors considered include, but are not limited to, historical financial performance, expected future cash flows, changes in management or key personnel, macroeconomic and industry conditions and the legal and regulatory environment. If the qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that an impairment exists, then a quantitative assessment is performed.

The quantitative assessments require the use of estimates and assumptions regarding future cash flows. Key assumptions include projected revenue growth and operating expenses, discount rates, royalty rates and other factors that could affect fair value or otherwise indicate potential impairment. These estimates are subjective, and our ability to realize future cash is affected by factors such as changes in economic conditions and operating performance. Changes in circumstances existing at the measurement date or at

27

other times in the future, or in the estimates associated with management’s judgments and assumptions made in assessing the fair value of our trademarks, could result in an impairment loss of a portion or all of our trademarks.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide this information.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as our controls are designed to do, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the risk and cost benefit relationship related to controls and procedures.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022 and, based on this evaluation, have concluded that one material weakness remains in our internal control over financial reporting previously identified in Item 9A. “Controls and Procedures” of our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which related to identified deficiencies surrounding control design and operating effectiveness, and inappropriate application of technical accounting for certain transactions and disclosures. As such, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2022. The material weakness did not result in a material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements.

Remediation Efforts to Address the Material Weakness

Our remediation efforts previously identified in Item 9A. “Controls and Procedures” of our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K to address the identified material weaknesses are ongoing. During the first nine months of 2022, we redesigned the control over the review of journal entries to ensure the appropriate level of segregation of duties. We completed our assessment of the redesigned journal entry control, which included both qualitative and quantitative design enhancements, to determine if it was designed and operating effectively. As a result of these actions, management has concluded that the material weakness associated with the review of journal entries was remediated as of June 30, 2022.

We have implemented certain new or redesigned controls to address the other deficiencies as noted above, which in the aggregate, constituted a material weakness, as identified in the 2021 Annual Report. While we believe the steps taken to date will improve the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we are in the process of testing these new or redesigned controls to determine if they are operating effectively.

The material weakness which arose from other deficiencies in the aggregate cannot be considered remediated until applicable controls have operated for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. Accordingly, we will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in the areas affected by the material weakness.

Changes in Internal Controls

Other than the ongoing steps being taken to implement the remediation plan described above and under Item 9A. “Controls and Procedures” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, there have been no other changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are subject to claims common to our industry and in the ordinary course of our business. Companies in our industry, including us, have been and are subject to class action lawsuits, primarily regarding compliance with labor laws and regulations. Defending lawsuits requires significant management attention and financial resources and the outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain. We believe that accrual and disclosure for these matters are adequately provided for in our consolidated financial statements. We do not believe the ultimate resolutions of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations. However, the resolution of lawsuits is difficult to predict. A significant increase in the number of these claims, or one or more successful claims under which we incur greater liabilities than is currently anticipated, could materially and adversely affect our consolidated financial statements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes to the risk factors contained in Item 1A of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On September 7, 2022, we announced a repurchase program of up to $10.0 million of our outstanding common stock, which program terminates in September 2024. The table below sets forth information with respect to share repurchases under the program in September 2022.

Period	Total number of shares purchased	Average price paid per share	Total number of shares purchased as part of publicly announced plan	Maximum dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under the plan

Summary of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Note 1 – Summary of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Business

The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a global restaurant company that develops, owns and operates, manages and licenses upscale and polished casual, high-energy restaurants and lounges and provides turn-key food and beverage (“F&B”) services and consulting services for hospitality venues including hotels, casinos and other high-end locations. Turn-key F&B services are food and beverage services that can be scaled, customized and implemented by the Company at a particular hospitality venue and customized for the client. The Company’s primary restaurant brands are STK, a multi-unit steakhouse concept that combines a high-energy, social atmosphere with the quality and service of a traditional upscale steakhouse, and Kona Grill, a polished casual bar-centric grill concept featuring American favorites, award-winning sushi, and specialty cocktails in a polished casual atmosphere.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company owned, operated, managed, or licensed 61 venues, including 23 STKs and 24 Kona Grills in major metropolitan cities in North America, Europe and the Middle East and 14 F&B venues in seven hotels and casinos in the United States and Europe. For those restaurants and venues that are managed or licensed, the Company generates management fees based on top-line revenues and incentive fee revenue based on a percentage of the location’s revenues and profits.

COVID-19

In response to COVID-19, the Company has taken significant steps to adapt its business to increase sales while providing a safe environment for guests and employees. COVID-19 related expenses were zero and $2.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $1.1 million and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, composed primarily of sanitation, supplies and safety precautions taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (“condensed consolidated financial statements”) of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited financial statements have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Additionally, the Company believes that the disclosures are sufficient for interim financial reporting purposes.

Change in Accounting Estimate

Effective April 1, 2022, the Company changed its estimated useful life of the Kona Grill trade name. Based upon the strong performance of the Kona Grill restaurants over the twelve months ended March 31, 2022, significant capital investments in both existing and new restaurants and the Company’s commitment to expand the Kona Grill brand with the opening of new restaurants, the Company has determined that the Kona Grill trade name has an indefinite life rather than the twenty-year life previously determined. The Company currently has two Kona Grill venues under construction in Riverton, Utah and Columbus, Ohio and plans to open three to five Kona Grills each year for the foreseeable future. The effect of this change in estimate will reduce depreciation and amortization expense by $0.9 million annually, increase net income by $0.9 million annually, and increase basic and diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.03 annually based upon the current number of shares outstanding.

As a result of the above change, the Company updated its accounting policy for Intangible Assets and will test for impairment annually on November 1^st or on an interim basis if events or changes in circumstances between annual tests indicate a potential impairment.

Prior Period Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of the 2021 amounts in the segment reporting footnote have been made to conform to the current year presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB “) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU“) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This update requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires a consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for smaller reporting companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact on its financial statements.

On August 6, 2021, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity date for both the term loan and revolving credit facility to August 2026. The Credit Agreement provides for a secured revolving credit facility of $12.0 million and a $25.0 million term loan (reduced from $48.0 million). The term loan is payable in quarterly installments of $0.1 million, with the final payment due in August 2026.

The amended Credit Agreement has several borrowing and interest rate options, including the following: (a) a LIBOR rate (or a comparable successor rate) subject to a 1.00% floor or (b) a base rate equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (iii) the LIBOR rate for a one-month period plus 1.00% or (iv) 4.00%. Loans under the amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the applicable indices plus an interest rate margin of 5.00% (for LIBOR rate loans) and 4.00%

(for base rate loans). Upon the cessation of LIBOR, the amended Credit Agreement provides for the use of a benchmark replacement as defined in the amended Credit Agreement.

In conjunction with the amended Credit Agreement, the Company made a pre-payment on the loan of $22.2 million and incurred $0.9 million in debt issuance costs. The Company accounted for the amendment as a debt modification with a partial extinguishment and recognized a loss on early debt extinguishment of $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and $0.1 million in transaction costs.

The Company’s weighted average interest rate on the borrowings under the amended Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was 6.6% and 6.0%, respectively.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and conditions to borrowing including customary affirmative and negative covenants, which include covenants that limit or restrict the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness and other obligations, grant liens to secure obligations, make investments, merge or consolidate, alter the organizational structure of the Company and its subsidiaries, and dispose of assets outside the ordinary course of business, in each case subject to customary exceptions for credit facilities of this size and type.

The Company and certain operating subsidiaries of the Company guarantee the obligations under the amended Credit Agreement, which also are secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $0.9 million of debt issuance costs related to the amended Credit Agreement, which were capitalized and are recorded as a direct deduction to long-term debt and $0.5 million in debt issuance costs recorded in Other Assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants required by the Credit Agreement.

Income taxes

Note 7 – Income taxes

Income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are recorded at the Company’s estimated annual effective income tax rate, subject to adjustments for discrete events, should they occur. The Company’s effective income tax rate including discrete events was (573.2%) and 8.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 11.3% and 7.7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The negative rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily the result of credits and discrete events exceeding pre-tax book income for the quarter. The Company’s annualized effective tax rate is estimated at approximately 15.9% for 2022. The Company’s projected annual effective tax rate differs from the statutory U.S. tax rate of 21% primarily due to the following: (i) tax credits for FICA taxes on certain employees’ tips (ii) taxes owed in foreign jurisdictions with tax rates that differ from the U.S. statutory rate; (iii) taxes owed in state and local jurisdictions; and (iv) the tax effect of non-deductible compensation. Income tax provision recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 included the discrete period tax benefits resulting from the vesting of restricted stock units.

The CARES Act includes provisions allowing for the carryback of net operating losses generated for specific periods and technical amendments regarding the expensing of qualified improvement property. The CARES Act also allows for the deferral of the employer-paid portion of social security taxes, which the Company has elected to defer and will pay by December 31, 2022.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal, state, local and various foreign income taxes for the jurisdictions in which it operates. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal, state, local and foreign taxing authorities. There are no ongoing federal, state, local, or foreign tax examinations as of September 30, 2022.

Due to the negative effects of COVID-19, the Company implemented measures to reduce its costs, including negotiations with landlords regarding rent concessions. As the rent concessions received do not result in a significant increase in cash payments, the Company elected to account for these concessions as a variable lease payment in accordance with ASC Topic 842. The Company’s right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities have not been remeasured for lease concessions received. Variable lease cost is comprised of percentage rent and common area maintenance, offset by rent concessions received as a result of COVID-19.

The Company has entered into two operating leases for future STK restaurants in Charlotte, North Carolina and Los Angeles, California that have not commenced as of September 30, 2022. The present value of the aggregate future commitment related to these leases, net of tenant improvement allowances received from the landlord, is estimated to be $3.5 million. The Company expects these leases, which have an initial lease term of 10 years and one or two 5-year options, to commence within the next twelve months.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

Note 10 – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and income available to common stockholders. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the dilutive effect of potential shares of common stock including common stock issuable pursuant to stock options, warrants, and restricted stock units.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the net income per share was calculated as follows (in thousands, except net income per share and related share data):

	Three months ended September 30,				Nine months ended September 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Net income attributable to The One Group Hospitality, Inc.	$	482	$	11,671	$	8,455	$	25,577
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		32,663,549		31,993,557		32,496,780		30,830,521
Dilutive effect of stock options, warrants and restricted share units		1,257,949		2,387,016		1,565,881		3,393,336
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		33,921,498		34,380,573		34,062,661		34,223,857

Restricted Stock Unit Activity

The Company issues restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2019 Equity Plan. RSUs in the table below include both time based and market condition-based awards. The fair value of time-based RSUs is determined based upon the closing fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date.

Awards granted during the third quarter of 2022 included 500,000 RSUs with both a market condition and time element (“Barrier RSUs”). These Barrier RSUs may be earned based on achieving common stock price targets within a 48-month period and, if earned,

will vest and be settled based on a time element as outlined in the RSU agreement governing the Barrier RSUs. To value the Barrier RSUs, the Company, with the assistance of a third-party specialist, calculated the fair value of Barrier RSUs using the Monte Carlo Simulation, a risk-free rate of 3.31%, a starting common stock value of $6.95, volatility of 73%, and a standard normal distribution. The Company valued the Barrier RSUs at $3.1 million and will amortize that amount evenly over 48 months. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded $0.1 million of stock-based compensation expense associated with these awards.

A summary of the status of RSUs and changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is presented below:

COVID-19 related expenses were zero and $2.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $1.1 million and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, composed primarily of sanitation, supplies and safety precautions taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements (“condensed consolidated financial statements”) of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual audited financial statements have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In the Company’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. Additionally, the Company believes that the disclosures are sufficient for interim financial reporting purposes.

Change in Accounting Estimate

Change in Accounting Estimate

Effective April 1, 2022, the Company changed its estimated useful life of the Kona Grill trade name. Based upon the strong performance of the Kona Grill restaurants over the twelve months ended March 31, 2022, significant capital investments in both existing and new restaurants and the Company’s commitment to expand the Kona Grill brand with the opening of new restaurants, the Company has determined that the Kona Grill trade name has an indefinite life rather than the twenty-year life previously determined. The Company currently has two Kona Grill venues under construction in Riverton, Utah and Columbus, Ohio and plans to open three to five Kona Grills each year for the foreseeable future. The effect of this change in estimate will reduce depreciation and amortization expense by $0.9 million annually, increase net income by $0.9 million annually, and increase basic and diluted earnings per share by approximately $0.03 annually based upon the current number of shares outstanding.

As a result of the above change, the Company updated its accounting policy for Intangible Assets and will test for impairment annually on November 1^st or on an interim basis if events or changes in circumstances between annual tests indicate a potential impairment.

The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-13 to have a material impact on its financial statements.
