October 9, 2019

Parent company of the QSR brand, Good Times Burgers, Good Times Restaurants Inc., has named its CFO Ryan Zink as its acting CEO following what the company described as the "departure" of CEO Boyd Hoback and his resignation from its board. The company said Zink will remain the CFO as well along with his new duties and that he is also a candidate for the permanent CEO's post, according to a news release. 

"We are grateful to Boyd for his many invaluable contributions to Good Times as CEO, and during his 30-plus year tenure at the company. As a founder of the Good Times brand, Boyd will always be indelibly linked to the company and deservedly so," Good Times Board Chair Geoff Bailey said in the release. "It goes without saying that we wish Boyd all the best in his future endeavors.

"We want to thank Ryan for stepping up to fill the role of chief executive officer on an acting basis. Ryan's familiarity with the company, his financial responsibilities and his role across the organization makes him a logical choice to serve as our top executive at this time."
Hoback also wished the company well, saying he looked "forward to my next chapter."

Good Times Restaurants Inc. is the parent company of 34 QSR locations of the Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard brand, primarily located in Colorado, as well as 38 full-service Bad Daddy's Burger Bar restaurants.
