NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Rave Restaurant Group, Inc. (the "Company") have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 26, 2016.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company's financial position and results of operations for the interim periods reflected. Except as noted, all adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Results of operations for the fiscal periods presented are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year-end results.

(1)	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All appropriate intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fiscal Quarters

The three and six month periods ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, each contained 13 weeks and 26 weeks, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when products are delivered and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable. The Company's Norco division sells food and supplies to franchisees on trade accounts under terms common in the industry. Food and supply sales revenues, including shipping and handling costs, are recognized upon delivery of the product. Revenue from restaurant sales is recognized when food and beverage products are sold. The Company reports revenue net of sales taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental taxing authorities.

Franchise revenue consists of income from license fees, royalties, and area development and foreign master license fees. License fees are recognized as income when there has been substantial performance under the agreement by the Company. Domestic license fees are generally recognized at the time the restaurant is opened. Foreign master license fees are generally recognized upon execution of the agreement as all material services relating to the sale have been substantially performed by the Company and the fee has been collected. Royalties are recognized as income when earned.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock options using the fair value recognition provisions of the authoritative guidance on share-based payments. The Company uses the Black-Scholes formula to estimate the value of stock-based compensation for options granted to employees and directors and expects to continue to use this acceptable option valuation model in the future. The authoritative guidance also requires the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow.

Restricted Stock Units

Compensation cost is measured as an amount equal to the fair value of the restricted stock units on the date of grant and is expensed over the vesting period if achievement of the performance criteria is deemed probable, with the amount of the expense recognized based on the best estimate of the ultimate achievement level.

Use of Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect its reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other various assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and actual results could differ materially from estimates.

Reclassification

Certain items have been reclassified in the prior year financial statements to conform to current year presentation.

(2)	Commitments and Contingencies

On April 22, 2009, the Company's board of directors amended the stock purchase plan first adopted on May 23, 2007, and previously amended on June 2, 2008, to increase the number of shares of common stock the Company may repurchase to a total of 3,016,000 shares. As of December 25, 2016, up to an additional 848,425 shares could be purchased under the plan.

The Company is subject to various claims and legal actions in the ordinary course of its business. The Company believes that all such claims and actions currently pending against it are either adequately covered by insurance or would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's annual results of operations, cash flows or financial condition if decided in a manner that is unfavorable to the Company.

(3) Stock-Based Compensation

Stock Options

For the three months ended December 25, 2016, and December 27, 2015, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options of $25,000 and $45,000, respectively. For the six month periods ended December 25, 2016, and December 27, 2015, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options of $50,000 and $90,000, respectively. As of December 25, 2016, unamortized stock-based compensation expense was $0.1 million.

The following table summarizes the number of shares of the Company's common stock subject to outstanding stock options:

<BTB>	Six Months Ended
<BTB>	December 25, 2016			December 27, 2015

Outstanding at beginning of year	$	847,556			871,798

Granted		50,000			42,786
Exercised		(315,000	)		-
Forfeited/Canceled/Expired		(80,000	)		-

Outstanding at end of period		502,556			914,584

Exercisable at end of period		365,406			551,028

Restricted Stock Units

For the three months ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units in the amount of $20,000 and $0, respectively. For the six months ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units in the amount of $40,000 and $0, respectively. As of December 25, 2016, unamortized stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units was $0.5 million.

A summary of the staus of restricted stock units as of December 25, 2016, and changes during the six months then ended is presented below:

(4)	Earnings per Share (EPS)

The following table shows the reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS calculation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS calculation (in thousands, except per share amounts).

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	December 25,			December 27,			December 25,			December 27,
	2016			2015			2016			2015

Net loss per common share	$	(0.74	)	$	(0.47	)	$	(0.89	)	$	(0.52	)

DILUTED:

Stock options		24			456			63			549
Weighted average common shares outstanding		10,681			10,770			10,638			10,859


Loss from continuing operations per common share	$	(0.74	)	$	(0.45	)	$	(0.89	)	$	(0.50	)
Loss from discontinued operations per common share		-			-			-			-
Net loss per common share	$	(0.74	)	$	(0.45	)	$	(0.89	)	$	(0.50	)

For the three months ended December 25, 2016, options to purchase 331,250 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $2.71 to $13.11 per share were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the options' exercise price exceeded the average market price of the common shares for the period.

(5) Closed restaurants and discontinued operations

In April, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which modifies the definition of discontinued operations to include only disposals of an entity that represent strategic shifts that have or will have a major effect on an entity's operation and requires entities to disclose information about disposals of individually significant components that do not meet the definition of discontinued operations. The standard was effective prospectively for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. This pronouncement did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The authoritative guidance on "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities," requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. This authoritative guidance also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability.

Discontinued operations includes income/loss from a leased building associated with a Company-owned restaurant closed in a prior year.

(6) Income Taxes

For the three months ended December 25, 2016, income tax expense represents an income tax benefit of $2.7 million calculated at a rate consistent with the 34% statutory U.S. federal rate offset by an income tax expense of $2.7 million related to a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets of $2.7 million and state taxes of $5,000. For the three months ended December 27, 2015, income tax expense was $2.9 million.

The Company continually reviews the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including an analysis of factors such as future taxable income, reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, and tax planning strategies. The Company continues to record a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. The Company assessed whether a valuation allowance should be established against its deferred tax assets based on consideration of all available evidence, using a "more likely than not" standard. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considered both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. In making such assessment, more weight was given to evidence that could be objectively verified, including recent cumulative losses. Future sources of taxable income were also considered in determining the amount of the recorded valuation allowance. Based on the Company's review of this evidence at December 25, 2016, management determined that a valuation allowance against all of the Company's deferred tax assets accruing during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was appropriate. There was approximately $8.2 million of deferred tax assets at December 25, 2016.

(7) Related Party Transactions

On February 20, 2014, the Company entered into an Advisory Services Agreement (the "Agreement") with NCM Services, Inc. ("NCMS") pursuant to which NCMS will provide certain advisory and consulting services to the Company. NCMS is indirectly owned and controlled by Mark E. Schwarz, the Chairman of the Company. The term of the Agreement commenced December 30, 2013, and continues quarterly thereafter until terminated by either party. Pursuant to the Agreement, NCMS was paid an initial fee of $150,000 and earns quarterly fees of $50,000 and an additional fee of up to $50,000 per quarter (not to exceed an aggregate of $100,000 in additional fees). The quarterly and additional fees are waived if the Company is not in compliance with all financial covenants under its primary credit facility or to the extent that payment of those fees would result in non-compliance with such financial covenants.

On December 22, 2016, the Company obtained a $1.0 million loan from its largest shareholder, Newcastle Partners, LP ("Newcastle"), evidenced by a Promissory Note. The loan bears interest at 10% per annum and is due and payable on April 30, 2017. Newcastle is an affiliate of the Company's Chairman, Mark E. Schwarz.

Pie Five system-wide retail sales increased $1.3 million, or 9.7%, for the three month period ended December 25, 2016 when compared to the same period of the prior year. Compared to the same fiscal quarter of the prior year, average units open in the period increased from 74 to 97. Comparable store retail sales decreased by $1.2 million, or 17.4%, during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of the prior year.

Pie Five system-wide retail sales increased $5.2 million, or 21.6%, for the six month period ended December 25, 2016 when compared to the same period of the prior year. Year-to-date fiscal 2017 compared to the year-to-date of the prior year, average units open in the period increased from 66 to 93. Comparable store retail sales decreased by $2.1 million, or 16.1%, during the first six months fiscal 2017 compared to the same period of the prior year.

The following chart summarizes Pie Five restaurant activity for the three and six month periods ended December 25, 2016:

	Three Months Ended December 25, 2016				Six Months Ended December 25, 2016

Total domestic Units	92	8	1	99	88	14	3	99

We believe that the net addition of seven Pie Five Units during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 reflects the continued but moderating growth in the opening of Pie Five Units as franchised stores open pursuant to previously executed franchise development agreements.

Pizza Inn domestic comparable store retail sales decreased 0.5%, for the six months ended December 25, 2016 when compared to the same period of the prior year.

Total Units	222	2	3	221	222	3	4	221

There was a net decrease of one domestic Pizza Inn units during the three and six months ended December 25, 2016. We believe this represents a stabilizing of store count from the recent trend of modest domestic store closures. The number of international Pizza Inn units continues to remain steady.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Terms

The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). However, the Company also presents and discusses certain non-GAAP financial measures that it believes are useful to investors as measures of operating performance. Management may also use such non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating the effectiveness of business strategies and for planning and budgeting purposes. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as an alternative or substitute for the results reflected in the Company's GAAP financial statements.

The following key performance indicators presented herein, some of which represent non-GAAP financial measures, have the meaning and are calculated as follows:

·	"EBITDA" represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.

·	"Adjusted EBITDA" represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock compensation expense, pre-opening expense, gain/loss on sale of assets, costs related to closed restaurants and impairment charges.

·	"Retail sales" represents the restaurant sales reported by our franchisees and Company-owned restaurants, which may be segmented by brand or domestic/international locations.

·	"System-wide retail sales" represents combined retail sales for franchisee and Company-owned restaurants for a specified brand.

"Comparable store retail sales" includes the retail sales for restaurants that have been open for at least 18 months as of the end of the reporting period. The sales results for a restaurant that was closed temporarily for remodeling or relocation within the same trade area are included in the calculation only for the days that the restaurant was open in both periods being compared.

·	"Store weeks" represent the total number of full weeks that specified restaurants were open during the period.

·	"Average units open" reflects the number of restaurants open during a reporting period weighted by the percentage of the weeks in a reporting period that each restaurant was open.

·	"Average weekly sales" for a specified period is calculated as total retail sales (excluding partial weeks) divided by store weeks in the period.

"Restaurant operating cash flow" represents the pre-tax income earned by Company-owned restaurants before (1) allocated marketing and advertising expenses, (2) depreciation and amortization, (3) pre-opening expenses, (4) operations management and extraordinary expenses, (5) impairment and other lease charges, and (6) non-operating store costs.

·	"Non-operating store costs" represent gain or loss on asset disposal, store closure expenses, lease termination expenses and expenses related to abandoned store sites.

·	"Pre-opening expenses" consist primarily of certain costs incurred prior to the opening of a restaurant, including: (1) marketing and promotional expenses, (2) accrued rent, and (3) manager salaries, employee payroll and related training costs..

Financial Results

Revenues:

Revenues are derived from (1) sales of food, paper products and supplies from Norco to franchisees, (2) franchise royalties and franchise fees, and (3) Company-owned restaurant operations. Financial results are dependent in large part upon the volume, pricing and cost of the products and supplies sold to franchisees. The volume of products sold by Norco to franchisees is dependent on the level of franchisee chain-wide retail sales, which are impacted by changes in comparable store sales and restaurant count, and the products sold to franchisees through Norco rather than through third-party food distributors.

Total revenues for the three month period ended December 25, 2016 and for the same period in the prior fiscal year were $14.8 million and $15.3 million, respectively. Total revenues for the six month period ended December 25, 2016 and for the same period in the prior fiscal year were $30.2 million and $29.8 million, respectively. Revenue consisted of the following:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	December 25,		December 27,		December 25,		December 27,
	2016		2015		2016		2015
Food and supply sales	$	9,120	$	8,785	$	18,264	$	17,424
Franchise revenue		1,445		1,442		2,858		2,715
Restaurant sales		4,227		5,084		9,126		9,708
Total revenue	$	14,792	$	15,311	$	30,248	$	29,847

Food and Supply Sales

Food and supply sales by Norco include food and paper products and other distribution revenues. For the three month period ended December 25, 2016, food and supply sales increased to $9.1 million compared to $8.8 million the same period in the prior fiscal year due primarily to a $1.3 million, or 3.9%, increase in total domestic retail sales. For the six month period ended December 25, 2016, food and supply sales increased to $18.3 million compared to $17.4 million the same period in the prior fiscal year due primarily to a $4.9 million, or 7.2%, increase in total domestic retail sales driven by an increase in the number of Pie Five franchisee stores.

Franchise Revenue

Franchise revenue, which includes income from domestic and international royalties and license fees, increased by $3,000 and $143,000 for the three and six month periods ended December 25, 2016, respectively, when compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. These increases were the result of higher royalties resulting from increased Pie Five franchisee retail sales and were partially offset by a decrease in franchise fees related to Pie Five.

Restaurant Sales

Restaurant sales, which consist of revenue generated by Company-owned restaurants, decreased 16.9%, or $0.9 million, to $4.2 million for the three month period ended December 25, 2016, compared to $5.1 million for the comparable period in the prior year. Restaurant sales decreased 6.0%, or $0.6 million, to $9.1 million for the six month period ended December 25, 2016, compared to $9.7 million for the comparable period in the prior year. These decreases were primarily due to store closings and lower comparable store retail sales.

Costs and Expenses:

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales, which primarily includes food and supply costs, distribution fees, and labor and general and administrative expenses directly related to restaurant sales, increased to $13.4 million for the three month period ended December 25, 2016 compared to $13.1 million in the three month period ended December 27, 2015. Cost of sales increased to $27.3 million for the six month period ended December 25, 2016 compared to $25.5 million in the comparable period in the prior year. The increases in costs were primarily the result of increased food and supply sales by Norco.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased to $2.2 million for the three month period ended December 25, 2016 compared to $1.7 million for the quarter ended December 27, 2015, primarily due to recruiting fees for new CEO and increased legal fees. General and administrative expenses increased to $4.1 million for the six month period ended December 25, 2016 compared to $3.3 million for the six months ended December 27, 2015.

Franchise Expenses

Franchise expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses directly related to the sale and continuing service of domestic and international franchises. These expenses increased marginally for the three and six month periods ended December 25, 2016 compared to the same periods of the prior year

Pre-Opening Expenses

Pre-opening expenses decreased $0.3 million and $0.7 million for the three and six month periods ended December 25, 2016 compared to the same periods of fiscal 2016. These decreases were due primarily to a fewer number of Company-owned Pie Five stores under development.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Other Lease Charges

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be fully recoverable. Impairment is evaluated based on the sum of undiscounted estimated future cash flows expected to result from use of the assets compared to their carrying values. If impairment is recognized, the carrying value of the impaired asset is reduced to its fair value, based on discounted estimated future cash flows. The Company has tested its long-lived assets for impairment and recognized pre-tax, non-cash impairment charges of $4.8 million related to the carrying value of 14 Pie Five restaurants and one Pizza Inn restaurant and $0.4 million in other lease termination expenses for the three month period ended December 25, 2016.

Bad Debt Expense

The Company monitors franchisee retail sales and receivable balances and adjusts credit terms when necessary to minimize the Company's exposure to high risk accounts receivable. Bad debt expense increased to $0.3 million for the three month period ended December 25, 2016 as compared to $0.1 million in the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. Bad debt expense increased to $0.4 million for the six month period ended December 25, 2016 as compared to $0.2 million in the comparable period in the prior fiscal year.

Interest Expense

Interest expense remained consistent at $2,000 for the three month period ended December 25, 2016 as compared to the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. Interest expense decreased $1,000 for the six month period ended December 25, 2016 as compared to the comparable period in the prior fiscal year.

Provision for Income Tax

For the three months ended December 25, 2016, income tax expense represents an income tax benefit of $2.7 million calculated at a rate consistent with the 34% statutory U.S. federal rate offset by an income tax expense of $2.7 million related to a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets of $2.7 million and state taxes of $5,000. For the three and six month periods ended December 27, 2015, income tax expense was $2.9 million and $2.6 million, respectively, as the result of taking a $3.5 million valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.

The Company continually reviews the realizability of its deferred tax assets, including an analysis of factors such as future taxable income, reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, and tax planning strategies. The Company continues to record a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. The Company assesses whether a valuation allowance should be established against its deferred tax assets based on consideration of all available evidence, using a "more likely than not" standard. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considers both positive and negative evidence related to the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. In making such assessment, more weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified, including recent cumulative losses. Future sources of taxable income are also considered in determining the amount of any recorded valuation allowance. Based on the Company's review of this evidence at December 25, 2016, management determined that a valuation allowance against all of the Company's deferred tax assets accruing during the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was appropriate. There was an aggregate of $8.2 million of deferred tax assets at December 25, 2016.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations includes income/loss from a leased building associated with a Company-owned restaurant closed in a prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flow from operating activities and proceeds from the sale of common stock.

Cash flows from operating activities generally reflect net income adjusted for certain non-cash items including depreciation and amortization, changes in deferred tax assets, share based compensation, and changes in working capital. Cash provided by operating activities decreased $3.1 million to cash used of $1.6 million for the six months ended December 25, 2016 compared to cash provided of $1.5 million for the six months ended December 27, 2015.

Cash flows from investing activities reflects capital expenditures for the purchase of Company assets net of the proceeds of sales of any Company assets. The Company used cash of $0.1 million for the six month period ended December 25, 2016, primarily for a new Company-owned Pie Five restaurant partially offset by small sales of assets. This compares to cash used by investing activities of $6.5 million during the same period in the prior fiscal year attributable to Company-owned Pie Five restaurants that opened during the period.

Cash flows from financing activities generally reflect changes in the Company's borrowings and stock activity during the period. Net cash provided by financing activities was $1.8 million and $0.7 million for the six month periods ended December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, respectively, which reflected proceeds from stock options and borrowings in the current year versus proceeds from the sale of stock in the prior year.

On May 20, 2013, the Company entered into an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement with MLV & Co. LLC ("MLV") pursuant to which the Company could offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $3,000,000 from time to time through MLV, acting as agent (the "2013 ATM Offering"). The 2013 ATM Offering was undertaken pursuant to Rule 415 and a shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 which was declared effective by the SEC on May 13, 2013. On November 20, 2013, the Company and MLV amended the At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement and the SEC declared effective a new shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 to increase the 2013 ATM Offering by $5,000,000. The Company ultimately sold an aggregate of 1,257,609 shares in the 2013 ATM Offering, realizing aggregate gross proceeds of $8.0 million.

On October 1, 2014, the Company entered into a new At Market Issuance Sales Agreement with MLV pursuant to which the Company could initially offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $5,000,000 from time to time through MLV, acting as agent (the "2014 ATM Offering"). On February 13, 2015, the aggregate offering amount of the 2014 ATM Offering was increased to $10,000,000. The 2014 ATM Offering is being undertaken pursuant to Rule 415 and a shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 which was declared effective by the SEC on August 8, 2014. Through December 25, 2016, the Company had sold an aggregate of 825,763 shares in the 2014 ATM Offering, realizing aggregate gross proceeds of $8.1 million.

On December 22, 2016, the board of directors of the Company approved a proposed rights offering to its existing shareholders and, in connection therewith, declared a dividend of subscription rights ("Rights") to holders of record of its common stock as of December 21, 2016, to purchase 4% Convertible Senior Notes due 2022, par $100 ("Notes"). Shareholders were issued 0.2817% of a Right per share of the common stock held on the record date (i.e., one Right for each 355 shares); provided, however, that the number of Rights was rounded to the nearest whole number and no fractional Rights were issued. Each whole Right entitles the holder to purchase one Note at the par value of $100 each. The Notes will be convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share (i.e., 50 shares of common stock per Note). The subscription rights are presently exercisable through February 13, 2017, which date may be extended up to 30 days at the discretion of the Company. The rights offering is subject to exercise of Rights for a minimum of $1,000,000 and a maximum of $3,000,000 in principal amount of the Notes. The net proceeds of the rights offering are intended to be used to repay the loan from Newcastle, to fund continued restaurant development activity and to provide working capital for general corporate purposes.

Management believes the cash on hand combined with cash from operations, proceeds from the 2014 ATM Offering and proceeds from the rights offering will be sufficient to fund operations for the next 12 months.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically. Actual results could differ materially from estimates.

The Company believes the following critical accounting policies require estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, are susceptible to change, and therefore require subjective judgments. Changes in the estimates and judgments could significantly impact the Company's results of operations and financial condition in future periods.

Accounts receivable consist primarily of receivables generated from food and supply sales to franchisees and franchise royalties. The Company records a provision for doubtful receivables to allow for any amounts which may be unrecoverable based upon an analysis of the Company's prior collection experience, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends. Actual realization of accounts receivable could differ materially from the Company's estimates.

Under the Company's distribution arrangements, third party distributors are responsible for maintaining system-wide distribution inventory. As a result, inventory consists primarily of food, paper products and supplies stored in and used by Company restaurants and is stated at lower of first-in, first-out ("FIFO") or market. The valuation of such restaurant inventory requires us to estimate the amount of obsolete and excess inventory based on estimates of future retail sales by Company-owned restaurants. Overestimating retail sales by Company-owned restaurants could result in the write-down of inventory which would have a negative impact on the gross margin of such Company-owned restaurants.

The Company periodically evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets based upon the Company's analysis of existing tax credits by jurisdiction and expectations of the Company's ability to utilize these tax assets through a review of estimated future taxable income and establishment of tax strategies. These estimates could be materially impacted by changes in future taxable income, the results of tax strategies or changes in tax law.

The Company recognizes food and supply revenue when products are delivered and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Franchise revenue consists of income from license fees, royalties, and area development and foreign master license sales. License fees are recognized as income when there has been substantial performance of the agreement by both the franchisee and the Company, generally at the time the restaurant is opened. Royalties are recognized as income when earned.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740-10, which prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that it has taken or expects to take on a tax return. ASC 740-10 requires that a company recognize in its financial statements the impact of tax positions that meet a "more likely than not" threshold, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, the Company had no uncertain tax positions.

The Company assesses its exposures to loss contingencies from legal matters based upon factors such as the current status of the cases and consultations with external counsel and provides for the exposure by accruing an amount if it is judged to be probable and can be reasonably estimated. If the actual loss from a contingency differs from management's estimate, operating results could be adversely impacted.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information it is required to disclose in the reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. The Company's disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The Company's management, including the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, have evaluated the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. During the most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
