Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
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 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 March 31, 2023, the Company owned, operated, managed, or licensed 63 venues, including 25 STKs and 25 Kona Grills in major metropolitan cities in North America, Europe and the Middle East and 13 F&B venues in six 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.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, 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, 2022.
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.
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. Effective, January 1, 2023, the Company implemented ASU 2016-13 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $1.4 million in standby letters of credit outstanding for certain restaurants and $10.6 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, to eliminate all financial covenants except a maximum net leverage ratio of 2.00 to 1.00, and to eliminate restrictions on the maximum amount of capital expenditures, the maximum number of Company-owned new locations, and credit extensions under the revolving credit facility. As amended, 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.
On December 13, 2022, the Company entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement that:
The Company borrowed $50.0 million on the delayed draw term facility on December 28, 2022.
Loans under the amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum using the SOFR rate subject to a 1.00% floor plus an interest rate margin of 6.50%. Prior to the Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement, the amended Credit Agreement had 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 Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement bore 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).
The Company’s weighted average interest rate on the borrowings under the amended Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was 11.61% and 10.31%
9
The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and conditions to borrowing including customary affirmative and negative covenants, among other things, 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 March 31, 2023, the Company had $2.1 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 $0.4 million in debt issuance costs recorded in Other Assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2023, 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 due to their short maturities. 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 March 31, 2023.
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 months ended March 31, 2023 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 6.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to 4.7% for the three months ended March 31, 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 three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 included the discrete period tax benefits resulting from the vesting of restricted stock units.
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 the federal, state, local and foreign taxing authorities. There are no ongoing federal, state, local, or foreign tax examinations as of March 31, 2023.

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.
12
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the net income per share was calculated as follows (in thousands, except net income per share and related share data):
Three months ended March 31,
Basic weighted average shares outstanding
Dilutive effect of stock options, warrants and restricted share units
1,320,519
2,014,235
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding
Net income available to common stockholders per share - Basic
Net income available to common stockholders per share - Diluted
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, 0.1 million and a nominal amount, respectively, 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.
Note 11 – Stockholder’s Equity
Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001. There were no shares of preferred stock that were issued or outstanding at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
Stock Purchase Program
In September 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a repurchase program of up to $10.0 million of outstanding common stock. During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company purchased 118,085 shares for $0.7 million.

Restricted Stock Unit Activity
The Company issues restricted stock units 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.
RSU awards granted during September 2022 included 500,000 RSUs awarded to our Chief Executive Officer with both a market condition and time element (the “CEO RSUs”). The CEO RSUs may be earned based on achieving common stock price targets within a 48-month period and, if earned, the CEO RSUs will vest and be settled based on a time element as outlined in the RSU agreement governing the CEO RSUs. To value the CEO RSUs, the Company, with the assistance of a third-party specialist, calculated the fair value of CEO 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 CEO RSUs at $2.9 million and will amortize this amount evenly over 48 months. For the first quarter of 2023, the Company recorded $0.2 million of stock-based compensation expense associated with these awards.
A summary of the status of RSUs and changes during the three months ended March 31, 2023 is presented below:

Business Summary
We are an international 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. We believe that this design and operating philosophy separates us from more traditional restaurant and foodservice competitors.
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. Our F&B hospitality clients operate global hospitality brands such as the W Hotel, ME Hotel, Hippodrome Casino, and Curio Collection by Hilton.
We opened our first restaurant in January 2004 in New York, New York, and, as of March 31, 2023, we owned, operated, managed or licensed 63 venues including 25 STKs and 25 Kona Grills in major metropolitan cities in North America, Europe and the Middle East and 13 F&B venues operated under ONE Hospitality in six hotels and casinos in the United States and Europe. In January 2023, we opened an owned Kona Grill restaurant in Columbus, Ohio. 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.

Our Growth Strategies and Outlook
Our growth model is primarily driven by the following:
We intend to open eight to twelve new venues in 2023. There are currently three Company-owned STK restaurants (Charlotte, NC, Boston, MA, and Washington D.C.) and two Company-owned Kona Grill restaurants (Riverton, UT and Phoenix, AZ) under construction. 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.
Executive Summary
Total revenue increased $8.4 million, or 11.3% to $82.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $74.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily due to the opening of three new venues since August 2022. Same-store sales increased 1.6% in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022. STK same store sales increased 5.3% while Kona Grill same store sales decreased 4.3%.
Restaurant operating profit decreased $0.1 million, or 1.1% to $12.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $13.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Restaurant operating profit as a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue was 16.4% in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 18.5% in the first quarter of 2022.
Operating income increased $0.1 million to $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to operating income of $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

The following tables show our operating results by segment for the periods indicated (in thousands).
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 and is a metric used in our debt compliance calculation. 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 March 31, 2023 and 2022
Revenues
Owned restaurant net revenue. Owned restaurant net revenue increased $8.1 million, or 11.4%, to $78.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $70.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to the opening of STK San Francisco in August 2022, STK Dallas in November 2022 and Kona Grill Columbus in January 2023. Comparable restaurant sales increased 1.6% in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022.
Management and license fee revenue. Management and license fee revenues increased $0.3 million, or 8.5% to $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to increased revenues at our managed STK restaurants in North America.
Cost and Expenses
Owned restaurant cost of sales. Food and beverage costs for owned restaurants increased $0.8 million, or 4.2%, to $18.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $18.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was due to the incremental sales increases noted above. As a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue, cost of sales decreased 170 basis points from 25.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2022 to 24.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily due to product mix management, pricing and operational cost reduction initiatives partially offset by product cost inflation.
Owned restaurant operating expenses. Owned restaurant operating expenses increased $7.4 million to $46.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $39.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the operating expenses associated with the three new venues opened since August 2022. Owned restaurant operating costs as a percentage of owned restaurant net revenue increased 380 basis points from 55.8% in the three months ended March 31, 2022 to 59.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily due to higher average wage and operating cost inflation.
General and administrative. General and administrative costs increased $0.6 million, or 8.8%, to $7.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $6.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was attributable to increased stock-based compensation expense and additional investments required ahead of new restaurant openings. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative costs were 9.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to 9.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $3.7 and $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase was primarily related to the opening of three new venues since August 2022 and capital expenditures to maintain and enhance the guest experience.
Pre-opening expenses. In the three months ended March 31, 2023, we incurred $1.3 million of pre-opening expenses primarily related to payroll, training, and non-cash pre-open rent for Kona Grill Columbus which opened in January 2023 and STK and Kona Grill restaurants currently under development. Total pre-opening expenses related to non-cash pre-open rent was $0.3 million. Pre-opening expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $0.3 million. Detail of pre-opening expenses by category is provided in the table below for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (in thousands).

COVID-19 related expenses. COVID-19 related expenses were $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to none for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Interest expense, net of interest income. Interest expense, net of interest income was $1.8 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We borrowed $50.0 million on the delayed draw term loan facility in December 2022.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes. The provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $0.2 million. The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2023 was 6.5% compared to 4.7% for the first quarter of 2022.
Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest was $0.3 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
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 March 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $48.7 million and $74.1 million in long-term debt, which consisted of borrowings under our Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2023, the availability on our revolving credit facility was $10.6 million, subject to certain conditions.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, capital expenditures were $11.9 million of which $9.1 million related to the construction of Kona Grill Columbus which opened in January 2023 and several restaurants that were under construction as of March 31, 2023. We spent $2.7 million on maintenance capital expenditures for existing restaurants which included additional furniture, fixtures, and equipment. In addition, we spent approximately $0.7 million for furniture, fixtures, and equipment for restaurants that we plan to open in the future. Net capital expenditures, inclusive of $0.4 million in landlord contributions, was $11.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Capital expenditures by type for the three months ended March 31, 2023 is provided below (in thousands).

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.
24
Credit Agreement
As of March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants under the amended Credit Agreement. Based on current projections, we believe that we will 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 cash pre-opening costs are $0.6 million to $0.8 million, excluding the impact of cash and non-cash pre-opening rent. 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 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

Financing activities
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents
Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $9.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily attributable to payments on accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $11.9 million primarily for the construction of STK restaurants in Charlotte, North Carolina and Boston, Massachusetts and Kona Grill restaurants in Columbus, Ohio; Riverton, Utah and Phoenix, Arizona and several restaurants that were under development as of March 31, 2023, as well as capital expenditures for existing restaurants compared to $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Purchases of property and equipment during the three months ended March 31, 2023 included approximately $3.4 million that was accrued as of December 31, 2022 and paid during the first quarter of 2023.
Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $1.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The increase was primarily attributable to the $0.7 million in purchases of common stock under our share repurchase program.
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.

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 March 31, 2023 and, based on this evaluation, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2023.
Changes in Internal Controls
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 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, 2022.
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 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
