Management Commentary

Gary Copperud, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, stated: “We are pleased to report a profitable second quarter of 2025. The second quarter profit reflects the results of cost-reduction initiatives and operational improvements. While industry headwinds remain, including consumer price sensitivity and inflationary pressures, our results demonstrate progress in aligning expenses with revenue. As we previously announced, we are continuing to work with our investment banker in evaluating merger opportunities. Based on our review of opportunities available, we believe that completing a transaction accretive to shareholder value by the end of the year is a realistic target.� Kenneth Brimmer, Chief Financial Officer, added: “The second quarter marked a return to profitability for BT Brands. We are continuing to improve restaurant-level performance and consider strategic asset sales contributing to overall profitability, and a favorable earnings trend that we expect to continue through the end of the year."

Fiscal 2025 Outlook

We anticipate maintaining profitability throughout the remainder of 2025. The outcome of merger discussions and possible asset sales cannot be assured. The Company, at this time, is not providing a detailed fiscal 2025 financial forecast.
