We credit effective promotional planning during the period, as well as our ability to control our non-wing costs. Ultimately, our team effort made the difference and we look forward to building on our momentum in 2004."

First Quarter 2004 Outlook

For the first quarter ending March 28, 2004, management expects total revenue to be approximately $39 million based on a company-owned same-store sales increase of 9% to 10%. Revenue assumptions are also based on 3 new company-owned restaurants during the first quarter and 6 new franchised units. Management also believes that GAAP and proforma earnings per diluted share for the first quarter will range from $0.17 to $0.19. This is based on the aforementioned a·fore·men·tioned
