Good Times loses 5 business days to Colorado floods

September 25, 2013

Good Times Restaurants Inc. reported that it lost a total of 5.5 business days of sales throughout its system due to Colorado flooding. No significant damage was done to any of the chain's restaurants and no employees were hurt.

The company said in a press release that despite the flooding, it expects to remain on track to continue its consecutive string of double-digit monthly same-store sales increases and its 13th consecutive quarter of same-store sales increases.

"The flooding in Colorado has been catastrophic. However, we are extremely thankful that we had no loss of life or injury amongst our employees and their families nor significant damage to any of our restaurants. While our overall sales were down a bit during the rains, our restaurant closures were limited and were a result of road closures around a few of our Northern Colorado stores near roads that had been washed out that had to be closed for public safety. Our supply chain to our restaurants was uninterrupted and our normal sales trends have resumed," said Boyd Hoback, president and CEO. "We, along with everyone else in Colorado, are relieved to see the sun shining again and are grateful for the tireless work of the all of the first responders and the remarkable resiliency of Coloradoans."
