CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Quarterly Report") that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance, business strategies, expectations for our business and any other statements of a future or forward-looking nature, constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this Quarterly Report may be forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements about the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination (as defined below) and our financial condition, results of operations, earnings outlook and prospects. Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places in this Quarterly Report including, without limitation, in the sections titled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Pinstripes Holdings."
In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "plan," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "outlook," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "continue," "could," "may," "might," "possible," "potential," "predict," "should," "would" and other similar words and expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We cannot assure you that future developments affecting the Company will be those that we have anticipated. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include, but are not limited to:
our ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the transactions consummated pursuant to the business combination agreement dated as of June 22, 2023 (as amended and restated as of September 26, 2023 and
2
November 22, 2023) by and among Pinstripes Inc., Banyan Acquisition Corporation and Panther Merger Sub Inc. (the "Business Combination Agreement" and such transactions, the "Business Combination");
risks related to the uncertainty of the projected financial information with respect to the Company;
the risks related to our current growth strategy and our ability to successfully open and integrate new locations;
risks related to our substantial indebtedness;
risks related to our ability to continue as a going concern and raise additional capital
the risks related to the capital intensive nature of our business, our ability to attract new customers and retain existing customers and the impact of pandemics and global economic trends, including the resulting labor shortage and inflation, on us;
our success in retaining or recruiting, or changes required in our officers, key employees or directors in operating as a public company;
our ability to maintain the listing of Pinstripes Class A Common Stock (as defined below) and Warrants (as defined below) on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE");
geopolitical risk and changes in applicable laws or regulations;
the possibility that we may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors;
our estimates of expenses and profitability;
operational risk;
litigation and regulatory enforcement risks, including the diversion of management time and attention and the additional costs and demands on our resources; and
other risks and uncertainties indicated in this Quarterly Report, including those under the heading "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 28, 2024 (the "2024 Annual Report"), and other filings that have been made or will be made with the SEC by the Company, as applicable.
The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive and additional factors may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations. We caution you that the foregoing list may not contain all of the forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions made by us prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. In addition, there may be additional risks that we presently do not know or that we currently believe are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements.
All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning matters addressed in this Quarterly Report and attributable to the Company or any person acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Quarterly Report. We do not give any assurance that we will achieve our expectations. Investors and prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which only speak as of the date made, are not a guarantee of future performance and are subject to a number of uncertainties, risks, assumptions and other factors, many of which are outside of our control. Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, we expressly disclaim any obligation and undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Quarterly Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Stockholders should be aware that the occurrence of the events described in the section titled "Risk Factors" the 2024 Annual Report and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report may adversely affect the Company.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Twelve and Twenty-Four Weeks Ended October 13, 2024 and October 15, 2023
Note 1 - Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation
Pinstripes Holdings, Inc. ("Pinstripes", "New Pinstripes", the "Company", "we", "us", or "our") was formed for the purpose of operating and expanding a unique entertainment and dining concept. As of October 13, 2024, the Company has 17 locations in ten states and Washington D.C. and generates revenue primarily from the sale of food, beverages, bowling, bocce and hosting private events. The Company operates its business as one operating and one reportable segment.
On December 29, 2023, Pinstripes, Inc. (the "Predecessor" or "Legacy Pinstripes") consummated the previously announced business combination pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of June 22, 2023 (as amended and restated as of September 26, 2023 and November 22, 2023, the "BCA" or "Business Combination"), by and among Legacy Pinstripes, Banyan Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Banyan"), and Panther Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Banyan. The financial statements included in this report reflect (i) the historical operating results of Legacy Pinstripes prior to the Business Combination and (ii) the combined results of Legacy Pinstripes and New Pinstripes following the closing of the Business Combination (collectively, Legacy Pinstripes and New Pinstripes are referred to as the "Company"). In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Banyan changed its name to Pinstripes Holdings, Inc. (see Note 2).
The closing of the Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. The prior period share and per share amounts presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the reverse recapitalization treatment of the transactions completed by the Business Combination.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its directly and indirectly wholly owned subsidiaries: Pinstripes, Inc., Pinstripes at Prairiefire, Inc., Pinstripes Illinois, LLC, and Pinstripes, Hillsdale, LLC. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Fiscal Years
The Company's fiscal year consists of 52/53-weeks ending on the last Sunday in April. The fiscal year ended April 28, 2024 contained 52 weeks. In a 52-week fiscal year, the first, second and third fiscal quarters each contain twelve weeks and the fourth fiscal quarter contains sixteen weeks. In a 53-week fiscal year, the first, second and third fiscal quarters each contain twelve weeks and the fourth fiscal quarter contains seventeen weeks.
Interim Financial Statements
The Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the United States for interim financial information as prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC. Due to the seasonality of the Company's business, results for any interim financial period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full fiscal year. In addition, quarterly results of operations may be impacted by the timing and amount of sales and costs associated with opening new locations.
These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not represent complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended April 28, 2024, included in the 2024 Annual Report, which was filed with the SEC on June 28, 2024.

(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
Twelve and Twenty-Four Weeks Ended October 13, 2024 and October 15, 2023
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
Management considers transaction settlements in process from credit card companies and all highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Amounts due from credit card transactions with settlement terms of less than five days are included in cash and cash equivalents. Credit and debit card receivables included within cash were $1,294 and $1,624 as of October 13, 2024 and April 28, 2024, respectively.
Revenue
Food and beverage revenues and recreation revenues are recognized when payment is tendered at the point of sale as the performance obligation has been satisfied. Food and beverage revenues include the sale of food and beverage products. Recreation revenues include bowling and bocce sales. Revenues are recognized net of discounts and taxes.

Event deposits received from customers in advance are included in amounts due to customers in the condensed consolidated balance sheets in the amounts of $7,739 as of October 13, 2024 and $6,640 as of April 28, 2024.
The Company sells gift cards, which do not have expiration dates, and does not deduct non-usage fees from outstanding gift card balances. Gift card sales are initially recorded by the Company as a liability and subsequently recognized as revenue upon redemption by the customer. For unredeemed gift cards that the Company expects to be entitled to breakage and for which there is no legal obligation to remit the unredeemed gift card balances to the relevant jurisdictions, the Company recognizes expected breakage as revenue in proportion to the pattern of redemption by the customers. The determination of the gift card breakage is based on the Company's specific historical redemption patterns. The contract liability related to our gift cards is included in amounts due to customers in the condensed consolidated balance sheets in the amounts of $1,743 as of October 13, 2024 and $1,993 as of April 28, 2024.

Pre-opening costs
Pre-opening costs, which are expensed as incurred, consist of expenses prior to opening a new store location and are made up primarily of manager salaries, relocation costs, recruiting expenses, payroll and training costs, marketing and travel costs. These costs also include occupancy costs recorded during the period between the date of possession and the date we begin operations at a location. Pre-opening costs were $1,568 and $2,574 for the twelve and twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024, respectively, compared to $3,026 and $5,304 for the twelve and twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023, respectively.

the Oaktree Tranche 1 Loan for general business purposes, including the settlement of Business Combination related transaction costs and to fund expansion efforts. A condition to the funding of the Oaktree Tranche 2 Term Loan is that the Company shall use the proceeds to repay all outstanding amounts under the Silverview Facility. Interest on the Oaktree Tranche 1 Loan accrues on a daily basis calculated based on a 360-day year at a rate per annum equal to (i) 12.5% payable in arrears, at Pinstripes' option either in cash or in kind (subject to certain procedures and conditions); provided that the interest payable in respect of any period following December 31, 2024, interest under this clause (i) will be required to be paid solely in cash, plus (ii) 7.5% payable quarterly in arrears, at Pinstripes' option, either in cash or in kind (subject to certain procedures and conditions). On each payment interest date, the Company will increase the principal amount based upon the contractual rate and assume the value of the payment in kind is equal to the amount accrued. The effective interest rate of the original debt will incorporate the paid-in-kind (PIK) interest in the computation of the effective interest rate as an assumed cash flow on each payment date. As of October 13, 2024 and April 28, 2024, the Company recorded $8,732 and $3,430, respectively, of accrued PIK interest in long-term notes payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Any prepayment of the Oaktree Tranche 1 Loan prior to its maturity date will be subject to a customary "make-whole" premium calculated using a discount rate equal to the yield on comparable Treasury securities plus 50 basis points.
The Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan presents a written option to Oaktree to issue an additional $40,000 of funding at Oaktree's sole discretion. The Company determined the written option for the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan requires recognition as a liability and to be remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period.

On September 3, 2024, the Company and Oaktree entered into the First Amendment (the "Oaktree First Amendment") to the Senior Notes. The Oaktree First Amendment provides, among things, that: (i) the Oaktree Lenders have the option, in their discretion to fund additional loans under the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan of up to $50,000 in any number of separate drawings (rather than $40,000 in a single tranche), (ii) the Company is obligated to grant additional Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrants on any closing of a Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan (see Note 10) and (iii) the proceeds received under Tranche 2 Loan no longer have to be used to repay all outstanding amounts under the Silverview Facility. In connection with the closing of the Oaktree First Amendment, Oaktree funded an Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan in the amount of $3,000 and agreed to grant an Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrant exercisable for 174,750 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock (see Note 10). The principal payment of the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan is due at maturity on December 29, 2028. Interest on the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan accrues on a daily basis calculated based on a 360-day year at a rate per annum equal to (i) 12.5% payable quarterly in arrears, at the Company's option either in cash or in kind (subject to certain procedures and conditions) prior to December 31, 2024, and thereafter solely in cash, plus (ii) 7.5% payable quarterly in arrears, at the Company's option, either in cash or in kind (subject to certain procedures and conditions) at all times. The Company determined that the amendment was treated as a debt modification and accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized. As a result of the debt modification, the Company recorded debt discount of $831.
As of April 28, 2024, the Company has recorded debt issuance costs and discounts, net of amortization, of $27,747, of which $496 was debt issuance costs and $27,251 was debt discount on the consolidated balance sheets. As of October 13,

Convertible Notes
On June 4, 2021, the Company entered into two convertible note agreements for $5,000 in the aggregate. The convertible notes accrue interest at 1.07% annually and mature on June 4, 2025. Holders of the convertible notes had the right, at their option, to convert all of the outstanding principal and accrued interest to shares of Legacy Pinstripes Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) the outstanding principal on the convertible note divided by (ii) the conversion price of $10 per share. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, the convertible note holders elected to convert all of the outstanding $5,000 principal balance and the $137 of accrued unpaid interest to approximately 5,000 shares of Legacy Pinstripes Common Stock. With the election to convert all of the outstanding principal and accrued interest at 1.07%, the holder of the note forfeited additional interest of $890.
Finance Obligations
In 2011, the Company entered into a failed sale leaseback at its Northbrook, Illinois location. The Company sold the building, fixtures and certain personal property and assigned the ground lease to a new lessor. The Company received $7,000 from the transaction, which was accounted for as a financing obligation with repayment terms of 15 years. The obligation is repaid in monthly installment payments, which includes principal and interest at an 8.15% annual rate. As of October 13, 2024 and April 28, 2024, the principal outstanding was $3,175 and $3,460, respectively.
During fiscal year 2024, the Company entered into agreements to pay for its bowling equipment for four locations through a long-term payment plan. The Company will pay approximately $2,805 for the equipment, which was accounted for as a financing obligation with a repayment term of five years. The obligation is repaid in monthly installment payments, which includes principal and interest at a 10% annual rate. As of October 13, 2024 and April 28, 2024, the principal outstanding was $2,473 and $2,664, respectively.
Debt Covenants
On December 29, 2023, the Silverview and Granite Creek Facilities were amended in connection with the entry into the Oaktree loan and Oaktree's entry into intercreditor agreements with each of Silverview and Granite Creek. The Silverview Facility and Granite Creek Facility were amended to align the measurement periods for the financial covenants of all three loan agreements, inclusive of Oaktree, and to provide for the Company's guarantee of their obligations under each of the Silverview Facility and Granite Creek Facility. The Senior Notes, along with the amended Silverview Facility and Granite Creek Facility, require the Company to maintain a minimum specified total net leverage ratio. The Company's loan agreements contain events of default with respect to, among other things, default in the payment of principal when due or the payment of interest, fees and other amounts due thereunder after a specific grace period, material misrepresentations and failure to comply with covenants. The Guarantors are subject to negative covenants restricting the activities of the Guarantors, including, without limitation, limitations on: dispositions, mergers or acquisitions, incurring indebtedness or liens, paying dividends or redeeming stock or making other distributions, making certain investments and engaging in certain other business transactions. The first covenant measurement period is ending on January 6, 2025. As of October 13, 2024, the Guarantors do not expect to be in compliance with the debt covenants as of the first measurement date based on their current obligations and liquidity. The Company could seek a waiver if necessary.
Liquidity and Going Concern
Under ASC 205, Presentation of Financial Statements, the Company is required to consider and evaluate whether there is substantial doubt that it has the ability to meet its obligations within one year from the financial statement issuance date. This assessment also includes the Company's consideration of any management plans to alleviate such doubts. The Company has reported negative working capital as of October 13, 2024 and April 28, 2024, and had losses from operations and cash used in operating activities for the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 and for the fiscal year ended April 28, 2024. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon it generating sufficient cash from operations over the next year from the date of the issuance of these financial statements. The Company believes that its current earnings projections, which include full year results for the stores that opened during the fiscal year ended April 28, 2024 and new store openings, raise substantial doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and the

Company's ability to meet its current obligations, including for capital expenditures, lease obligations and continued operations as they become due within one year from the financial statement issuance date. To alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, management is exploring additional financing and a capital raise by the end of the fiscal third quarter. While the Company has historically been successful in raising outside capital, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to continue to obtain outside capital in the future or do so on terms that are acceptable to the Company. The Company continues to implement meaningful cost reductions, receive committed lessor tenant allowances and renegotiate leases and other agreements with favorable terms. Due to these uncertainties, management concluded that substantial doubt exists with respect to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the financial statement issuance date. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates that the Company will be able to realize assets and settle liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
Fair Value
The fair value of long-term notes payable, including current maturities, as of October 13, 2024 and April 28, 2024 is approximately $87,349 and $71,061, respectively, and estimated using Level 3 inputs.
Note 6 - Income Taxes
The Company's full pretax loss for the twelve and twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 and October 15, 2023 was from U.S. domestic operations. The Company's effective tax rate ("ETR") from continuing operations was (0.7)% and (0.7)% for the twelve and twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024, respectively, and (0.8)% and 0.0% for the twelve and twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023, respectively, and consists of state income taxes. There were no significant discrete items recorded for the twelve and twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 and October 15, 2023, respectively.
Note 7 - Leases
The Company leases various assets, including real estate, retail buildings, restaurant equipment and office equipment. The Company has non-cancelable operating leases expiring at various times through 2036.
In June 2023, the Company entered into a lease amendment for one location that resulted in a lease modification in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 842, Leases(ASC 842), under which the Company received an abatement of $4,673 and deferral of previously unpaid rent of $4,500. The modification of the lease increased the lease liability by $2,678, decreased accrued occupancy costs by $9,173, and decreased the right-of-use asset, which resulted in a gain of $3,281 that is included as a reduction in the Company's store occupancy costs, excluding depreciation, on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023.
As of October 13, 2024, the Company has entered into additional operating leases with $57,782 in aggregate future fixed lease payments related to new locations, which have not yet commenced. As of October 13, 2024, the Company did not have control of the underlying properties.
The components of lease expense are as follows:

Note 10 - Warrants
In fiscal year 2023, the Company issued 267,000 warrants to Silverview (the "Silverview Warrants"), recorded at fair value in additional paid-in capital within the condensed consolidated balance sheets of $1,712, net of issuance costs. Upon surrender of these warrants, the holder was entitled to purchase one share of Legacy Pinstripes Common Stock at an

exercise price of $0.01. Furthermore, in fiscal year 2023, the Company issued 7,500 warrants to another service provider with an exercise price of $10 per share.
On August 1, 2023, the Company and Silverview amended and restated the Silverview warrant agreement to correct the number of shares of common stock Silverview was entitled to subscribe and purchase from 258,303 to 162,946. A separate warrant agreement for 8,697 warrants of the 267,000 issued in fiscal year 2024 was not amended and the warrants remained issued. Under the term loan agreement, the Company was contractually obligated to issue a specified number of warrants to Silverview in the event the Company elected to exercise its right to obtain additional funding from Silverview under the term loan agreement. Therefore, the remaining warrants were considered contingently issuable and the contingency was satisfied when a draw on Silverview Tranche 2 Loan occurred. For accounting purposes, all 267,000 warrants were still considered issued and outstanding.
As a result of the amended and restated warrant agreement with Silverview, the Company determined the contingently issuable warrants required recognition as a liability. The contingently issuable warrants were reclassified at their current fair value on August 1, 2023. When the contingently issuable warrants' contingency was satisfied, the respective warrant shares were considered indexed to the Company's common stock and qualified for equity classification under the derivative scope exception provided by Accounting Standards Codification, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815). Upon the satisfaction of the issuance contingency, the Company shall (i) reclassify the respective warrant shares to equity and (ii) recognize any previous gains or losses in fair value through earnings during the period the shares were classified as a liability.
On August 1, 2023, the Company issued 7,629 warrant shares to Silverview in exchange for $1,000 in funding drawn under the Silverview Tranche 2 Loan (see Note 5). As of August 1, 2023, 179,272 shares were considered issued warrants and 87,728 shares were considered contingently issuable warrants.
On September 29, 2023, the Company issued 11,443 warrants in exchange for $1,500 in funding drawn under the Silverview Tranche 2 Loan. As the contingency was satisfied for these warrants, $173 was reclassed from the warrant liability to additional paid-in-capital.
On October 20, 2023, the Company issued 38,143 warrants in exchange for $5,000 in funding drawn under the Silverview Tranche 2 Loan. As the contingency was satisfied for these warrants, $524 was reclassed from the warrant liability to additional paid-in-capital.
On December 29, 2023, the Company issued 38,142 warrants in exchange for $5,000 in funding drawn under the Silverview Tranche 2 Loan. As the contingency was satisfied for these warrants, $415 was reclassed from the warrant liability to additional paid-in-capital.
In April 2023 and July 2023, the Company also issued 111,619 and 48,530 warrants, respectively, to Granite Creek in connection with its equipment loan agreement (the "Granite Creek Warrants"). Granite Creek had the right to require Legacy Pinstripes to pay cash to repurchase all or any portion of the warrants or the shares of Common Stock issued under the warrants. The Company determined these warrants required liability classification in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity(ASC 480), and as a result, recorded a warrant liability. On December 4, 2023, Granite Creek exercised their warrants at a par value of $0.01. The Company de-recognized the warrant liability of $2,202.
In determining the fair value of the Granite Creek warrants and Silverview contingently issuable warrants as of the measurement date, the Company utilized the intrinsic value valuation method using level 3 inputs consisting of the fair value of common stock as of the measurement date less the exercise price of $0.01 for Silverview and less the exercise price of $0.001 for the Granite Creek warrants.
In connection with the Reverse Recapitalization, the holders of Legacy Pinstripes' warrants elected to convert all outstanding warrants to shares of New Pinstripes Common Stock on a cashless basis (see Note 2). As of April 28, 2024, there were no outstanding Legacy Pinstripes warrants.
On September 3, 2024, the Company amended the Silverview Facility (see Note 5) and the Company agreed to grant Silverview warrants to purchase 29,292 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock (the "Silverview Tranche 3

Warrants"), at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The Silverview Tranche 3 Warrants are indexed to the Company's common stock and qualified for equity classification under the derivative scope exception provided by ASC 815. The Silverview Tranche 3 Warrants were recorded at fair value in additional paid-in-capital for $67.
In connection with Banyan's initial public offering, Banyan issued (i) 12,075,000 public warrants ("Public Warrants") and 11,910,000 private placement warrants ("Private Warrants"). On December 29, 2023, in connection with the Reverse Capitalization, the Company effectively issued an aggregate of 23,985,000 warrants to purchase an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock, representing the 12,075,000 Public Warrants and 11,910,000 Private Warrants. The Public Warrants and Private Warrants remained unexercised and were issued and outstanding as of October 13, 2024.
The Public Warrants and Private Warrants meet the definition of a derivative instrument, requiring liability classification, and are measured at fair value on a recurring basis with the change in fair value recognized in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants is measured by the Company's publicly traded warrant price. In determining the fair value of the Private Warrants, the Company utilizes the Cox-Rubenstein-Ross binomial lattice model using Level 3 inputs consisting of the fair value of the Public Warrants as of the measurement and implied equity volatility. On the December 29, 2023 issuance date, the Company recorded a warrant liability for the Public Warrants and Private Warrants in the fair value amounts of $4,456 and $25,368, respectively. During the twelve and twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024, the Company recognized a gain for the change in fair value of the Public Warrants and Private Warrants in the amounts of $966 and $1,932, respectively, and $2,132 and $3,204, respectively.
The Public Warrants are exercisable 30 days after consummation of the Reverse Recapitalization if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to the shares of Common Stock underlying the Public Warrants, and expire five years from the consummation of the Reverse Recapitalization, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation. The redemption of the Public Warrants is as follows:
Redemption of Public Warrants when the price per Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00.Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:
in whole and not in part;
at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
upon not less than 30 days prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
if, and only if, the closing price of the underlying Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending threetrading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
If and when the Public Warrants become redeemable by the Company, it may exercise its redemption right even if the Company is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
Redemption of Public Warrants when the price per Common Stock equals or exceeds $10.00. Once the Public Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:
in whole and not in part;
at $0.10 per warrant;
upon a minimum of 30 days prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise the Public Warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the underlying Common Stock;
if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the underlying Common Stock equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted per stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within the 30-trading day period ending three trading days before the Company send the notice of redemption to the holders; and

if the closing price of the underlying Common Stock for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the holders is less than $18.00 per share, the Private Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.
The Private Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants with the exception that the underlying shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of Private Warrants are not transferable, assignable or saleable, until 30 days after the consummation of the Reverse Recapitalization, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the holders have the right to exercise the Private Warrants on a cashless basis and are entitled certain registration rights. If the Private Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Warrants will be redeemable by the Company in all Public Warrant redemption scenarios described above, on the same basis as the Public Warrants.
In connection with the Reverse Recapitalization, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Oaktree (see Note 5). In connection with the closing of the Oaktree Tranche 1 Loan, Oaktree was granted fully detachable warrants exercisable for an aggregate 2,500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share ("Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants"). In the event that the volume-weighted average price ("VWAP") per share of the Company's Class A Common Stock during the period commencing on the 91stday after the closing of the Business Combination and ending 90 days thereafter is less than $8.00 per share, the Company shall grant to Oaktree a warrant to purchase Common Stock for 187,500 shares of Class A Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share ("Additional Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants"). If the VWAP is less than $6.00 during the same period, the Company shall instead grant to Oaktree a warrant to purchase common stock for 412,500 shares of Class A Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share ("Additional Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants"). Therefore, the Additional Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants are considered contingently issuable and the contingency is satisfied when the Class A Common Stock meets the contingency requirements above. During the period commencing on the 91st day after the closing of the Business Combination and ending 90 days thereafter, the VWAP was less than $6.00 and as such, the Company legally issued the Additional Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants for 412,500 shares of Class A Common Stock on June 27, 2024 at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. As the Additional Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants were considered issued and outstanding for accounting purposes on December 29, 2023 when the Senior Notes were issued, there is no accounting recognition at the legal issuance date when the issuance contingency was resolved.
In the event the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan is funded, Oaktree will be granted additional warrants exercisable for an aggregate amount of 1,650,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share ("Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrants" (collectively, the Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants, Additional Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants and Tranche 2 Warrants are referred to as the "Oaktree Warrants"). In the event that the VWAP per share of Class A Common Stock during the period commencing the 91stday after the closing of the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan and ending 90 days thereafter is less than $6.00 per share, Oaktree will instead be granted Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 1,900,000 shares of Class A Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The Oaktree Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and the Company has agreed to register for the resale of the shares of Class A Common Stock underling the Oaktree Warrants.
With the closing of the Oaktree First Amendment (see Note 5), the Company is obligated to grant Additional Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrants on any closing of a Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan equal to the product of 2,912,500 (1,012,500 warrants incremental to the original 1,900,000 warrants) multiplied by the quotient of (A) the total amount funded on such Tranche 2 Loan closing date by (B) $50,000 (rather than a single additional warrant exercisable for 1,900,000 shares), and the Company shall issue any Additional Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrant in a form consistent with the Oaktree Warrant Amendment described below. In connection with the Oaktree First Amendment (see Note 5), the Company and Oaktree entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the "Oaktree Warrant Amendment"), which eliminates the one-year lock-up restriction (subject to limited exceptions) that had existed in respect of the 2,912,500 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of warrants (Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants) issued by the Company to Oaktree in connection with the funding of the original Oaktree Tranche 1 Loan under the Oaktree Loan Agreement (as well as the same restriction that had been applicable to the transfer of the warrants themselves).
The Company determined the Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants meet the equity classification guidance. Upon surrender of these equity-classified warrants, the holder is entitled to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at $0.01 per share. The equity classified warrants expire on the 10-year anniversary of the Reverse Recapitalization.

Under the Oaktree loan agreement, the Company is contractually obligated to issue a specified number of warrants to Oaktree based on the scenarios above. Therefore, the Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrants are considered contingently issuable and the contingency is satisfied when Oaktree exercises its written option on the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan and the Class A Common Stock meets the contingency requirements above. When the contingently issuable warrants' contingency is satisfied, the respective shares underlying these warrants will be considered indexed to the Class A Common Stock and qualify for equity classification under the derivative scope exception provided by ASC 815. Upon the satisfaction of the issuance contingency, the Company will (i) reclassify the respective warrant shares to equity and (ii) recognize any previous gains or losses in fair value through earnings during the period the shares were classified as a liability.
As a result of the amended warrant agreement with Oaktree, the Company determined the contingently issuable warrants required recognition as a liability. The 1,900,000 of contingently issuable warrants were reclassified from additional paid-in capital to a liability at their current fair value of $1,864 on September 3, 2024. The additional 1,012,500 warrants were liability-classified on September 3, 2024 at their fair value of $859. In connection with the closing of the Oaktree First Amendment, the Company issued 174,750 warrants in exchange for $3,000 in funding under the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan. As the contingency was satisfied for these warrants, $401 was reclassed from warrant liabilities to additional paid-in-capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
As of October 13, 2024, outstanding warrants were as follows:

The change in fair value of the liability-classified warrants are reported in the gain on change in fair value of warrant liabilities and other on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Upon surrender of the Public and Private Warrants, the holder is entitled to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at $11.50 per share. The outstanding Public and Private Warrants expire on the five-year anniversary of the closing of the Reverse Recapitalization. Upon surrender of the Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrants, the holder is entitled to purchase one share of Class A Common Stock at $0.01 per share. The outstanding Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrants expire ten years from the issuance date of the warrant.
Note 11 - Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share is calculated using the two-class method required for companies with participating securities. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula under which the Company treats participating securities as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common shareholders. The Company considers the

Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock to be participating securities as the holders are entitled to receive dividends on an as-if converted basis equal to common stock.
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding, including issued but unexercised pre-funded warrants outstanding, during the respective periods. As the contingently issuable warrants are contingent upon additional funding under the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan being received, they have not been included in the calculation of basic net loss per share. Diluted net loss per share is calculated using the more dilutive of either the treasury stock, and if-converted method, as applicable, or the two-class method assuming the participating security is not converted.
The Company did not declare any common stock dividends in the periods presented. The following tables provide the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock for the twelve and twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 and October 15, 2023:

Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, including claims alleging violations of federal and state law regarding workplace and employment matters, discrimination, slip-and-fall and other customer-related incidents, and similar matters. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of all proceedings and exposures with certainty, management believes that, except as set forth below, their ultimate disposition should not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On November 6, 2023, Riveron Consulting, LLC filed a lawsuit against the Company in the District Court of the 95th Judicial District of Dallas County, Texas for breach of contract and failure to receive compensation for services rendered. The complaint seeks monetary relief for services rendered and attorneys' fees. As of October 13, 2024 and April 28, 2024, the Company has accrued a liability of $464 within accounts payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as this amount represents the probable and reasonably estimable cost to resolve this matter.

Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference in this section to the "Company," "we," "us," "our," or "Pinstripes" refers to Pinstripes, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Business Combination and to Pinstripes Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries after the consummation of the Business Combination. You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this filing. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this filing including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" sections in this filing for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.
We have a 52- or 53- week fiscal year ending on the last Sunday of April. All references to fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 reflect the results of the 52-week fiscal year ended April 27, 2025 and April 28, 2024, respectively. The first and second quarters of fiscal 2025 reflect the results of the twelve weeks ended July 21, 2024and October 13, 2024. Our first three fiscal quarters are comprised of twelve weeks each, and the fourth fiscal quarter contains sixteen weeks, except for fiscal years consisting of 53 weeks for which the fourth fiscal quarter will consist of seventeen weeks, and end on the twelfth Sunday of each quarter (sixteenth Sunday of the fourth fiscal quarter, and, when applicable, the seventeenth Sunday of the fourth fiscal quarter).
Overview
Pinstripes is an experiential dining and entertainment concept combining exceptional Italian-American cuisine with bowling, bocce and private events. Our large-format community venues offer a winning combination of sophisticated fun for the consumer longing for human connectedness across generations and we deliver a broad range of experiences, from a 300-person wedding in one of our many event spaces, to an intimate date night for two in one of our dining rooms, to a birthday party on our bowling lanes or bocce courts. This ability to offer curated and engaging experiences across a broad range of occasions enables us to generate revenue from numerous sources, including dining, bowling, bocce and private events and off-site events and catering.
As of October 13, 2024, we have 17 restaurants in ten states and Washington D.C., and approximately 1,700 employees (who we refer to as "PinMembers"). We are highly disciplined in our site selection process and we design and construct large-format locations that are each 26,000 to 38,000 square feet of interior space, plus additional outdoor patio space that includes outdoor dining, bocce courts, fire-pits and decorative fountains. Each location can host over 900 guests at a time, with dining capacity of approximately 300 guests, bar capacity of 75 guests, 11 to 20 bowling lanes, 6 to 12 indoor/outdoor bocce courts and multiple private event spaces that can accommodate groups of 20 to 1,000 guests. Our locations generated average unit volumes ("AUV"), as further defined below, of $8.6 million for the fiscal year ended April 28, 2024, demonstrating the scale of our operating model and ability to tailor our space in bespoke ways. Our revenue growth is expected to be primarily driven by revenues from new location openings and increases in same store sales in the future.
Factors Affecting Our Business
Expanding Footprint
We have developed a disciplined new venue growth strategy in both new and existing markets, and target certain initial sales, profitability and payback period goals for each new venue opening. We employ a sophisticated, data-based site selection strategy that is highly collaborative with our real estate development partners and network of brokers around the country and focuses on markets with high income and education levels, population density and strong co-tenants. We expect to benefit from a powerful density effect as we continue to open new venues in existing markets, which increases market awareness and generates staffing synergies.
Macroeconomic Conditions
Consumer spending on food and entertainment outside the home fluctuates with macroeconomic conditions. Consumers tend to allocate higher spending to food outside the home when macroeconomic conditions are stronger and rationalize spending on food outside the home during weaker economies. While we have been able to partially offset inflation and other increases, such as wage increases, in the costs of core operating resources by gradually increasing menu prices, coupled with more efficient purchasing practices, productivity improvements and greater economies of scale, there
29
Table of Contents
can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so in the future. In particular, macroeconomic conditions could make additional menu price increases imprudent. There can be no assurance that future cost increases can be offset by increased menu prices or that increased menu prices will be fully absorbed by our customers without any resulting change to their visit frequencies or purchasing patterns.
Fiscal Calendar and Seasonality
We operate on a 52-week or 53-week fiscal year that ends on the last Sunday in April. In a 52-week fiscal year, the first, second and third fiscal quarters each contain twelve weeks and the fourth fiscal quarter contains sixteen weeks. In a 53-week fiscal year, the first, second and third fiscal quarters each contain twelve weeks and the fourth fiscal quarter contains seventeen weeks.
Our revenues are influenced by seasonal shifts in consumer spending. Typically, our average sales per location are highest during the holiday season (specifically the period from the last week of November to the second week of January) and summer, and lowest in the winter and the fall (other than during the holiday season). This seasonality is due to increases in spending and private events during the holiday season, followed by continued increased activity as the weather improves in the spring and summer. The fall and winter are our lowest sales seasons due to the fact that the weather is typically deteriorating and children are returning to school. Additionally, holidays, changes in the economy, severe weather and similar conditions may impact sales volumes seasonally in some operating regions.
As a result of these factors and the differences among our fiscal quarters, our quarterly operating results and comparable restaurant sales, as well as our key performance measures, may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter and our results for any one quarter are not indicative of any other quarter.
The Business Combination
Pinstripes, Banyan, and Panther Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Banyan ("Merger Sub"), entered into the Second Amended and Restated Business Combination Agreement on November 22, 2023. Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the "BCA or "Business Combination"), on December 29, 2023, Pinstripes merged with and into Merger Sub, with Pinstripes surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Banyan. In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Banyan was renamed "Pinstripes Holdings, Inc."
In connection with Banyan's initial public offering, Banyan issued (i) 12,075,000 Public Warrant sand 11,910,000 Private Warrants. On December 29, 2023, in connection with the Business Combination, Pinstripes effectively issued an aggregate of 23,985,000 warrants to purchase an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock, representing the 12,075,000 Public Warrants and 11,910,000 Private Warrants. The Public Warrants and Private Warrants remained unexercised and were issued and outstanding as of October 13, 2024.
The Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP (the "Reverse Recapitalization"). Under this method of accounting, Banyan is treated as the acquired company and Pinstripes is treated as the acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the financial statements of Pinstripes Holdings, Inc. represent a continuation of the financial statements of Pinstripes, Inc., with the Business Combination treated as the equivalent of Pinstripes issuing stock for the historical net assets of Banyan, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Banyan were stated at fair value, which approximated historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Pinstripes.
As a consequence of the Business Combination, Pinstripes, Inc. became a subsidiary of a SEC- registered and NYSE-listed company, which will require us to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements. We expect to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors' and officers' liability insurance, director fees and additional internal and external accounting and legal and administrative resources, including increased audit, consulting and legal fees.
Key Performance Metrics
We track the following key business metrics to evaluate our performance, identify trends, formulate financial projections, and make strategic decisions. We believe that these key business metrics provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations in the same manner as our management team. These key business metrics are presented for supplemental informational purposes only and may be different from similarly titled metrics or measures presented by other companies.

AUV $ 8.6 $ 8.6
Average unit volume ("AUV") is the total revenue generated by operating Pinstripes locations for the entire fiscal year, divided by the number of operating Pinstripes locations open for the entire fiscal year. This measurement allows us to assess, and our investors to understand, changes in guest spending patterns of our restaurants and the overall performance of our existing locations. An increase or decrease in AUV is the result of changes in guest traffic and average guest checks. We gather daily sales data and regularly analyze the restaurant traffic counts and the mix of menu items sold to aid in developing menu pricing, product offerings and promotional strategies designed to produce sustainable AUV. When opening locations in new markets, we typically generate significant revenues in the first year of operation as a result of guests wanting to experience a new concept open in the market, and typically continue to generate significant revenues in the second year and years thereafter as our overall brand awareness increases in the surrounding areas, coupled with an increase in many types of private events that are booked months, or years, in advance (i.e., weddings, bar mitzvahs, graduation parties, and others).

Since opening new stores will be a significant component of our sales growth, comparable restaurant sales growth is only one measure of how we evaluate our performance.
Number of Store Openings
The number of store openings reflects the number of stores opened during a particular reporting period. Before we open new stores, we incur pre-opening expenses. The number and timing of store openings has had, and is expected to continue to have, an impact on our results of operations. During the twelve and twenty-fourweeks ended October 13, 2024, there were no store openings.

Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
We recognize food and beverage revenue, net of discounts and incentives, when payment is tendered at the point of sale as the performance obligation has been satisfied. Food and beverage revenue includes the sale of food and beverage products. Recreation revenue includes bowling and bocce sales. Revenues are recognized net of discounts and taxes. Event deposits received from guests are deferred and recognized as revenue when the event is held. Events sales consisting of charges for bowling or bocce play are recognized as "recreation revenue," while all other event sales are recognized as "food and beverage revenue."
We sell gift cards, which do not have expiration dates and do not deduct non-usage fees from outstanding gift card balances. We record gift card sales as a liability and recognize as revenue upon redemption by the customer. For unredeemed gift cards that we expect to be entitled to breakage and for which there is no legal obligation to remit the unredeemed gift card balances to the relevant jurisdictions, we recognize expected breakage as revenue in proportion to the pattern of redemption by the customers. The determination of the gift card breakage is based on our specific historical redemption patterns.
Revenues are reported net of sales tax collected from customers. Sales tax collected is included in other accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets until the taxes are remitted to the appropriate taxing authorities.
Cost of food and beverage
The components of food and beverage costs are variable in nature, increase as sales volumes increase and are influenced by sales mix, commodity costs and inflation.
Store labor and benefits
Store labor and benefits consists of all restaurant-level management and hourly labor costs including salaries, wages, benefits, bonuses and payroll taxes. Corporate-level employees are otherwise classified within general and administrative expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Factors that influence labor costs include minimum wage and payroll tax legislation, health care costs and sizes and locations of our stores.
Store occupancy costs, excluding depreciation
Store occupancy costs, excluding depreciation, consists of rent expense, common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and utilities.
Other store operating expenses, excluding depreciation
Other store operating expenses include other operating expenses incidental to operating our locations, such as third-party delivery fees, non-perishable supplies, repairs and maintenance, credit card fees and property insurance.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of operations, finance, advertising, legal, human resources, administrative personnel and other personnel costs that support development and operations, as well as stock-based compensation expense.
Depreciation expense
Depreciation expense includes the depreciation of fixed assets, including leasehold improvements and equipment.
Pre-opening expenses
Pre-opening costs include costs associated with the opening and organizing of new stores, including the cost of pre-opening rent, training, relocation, recruiting and travel costs for team members engaged in such pre-opening activities. All pre-opening costs are expensed as incurred.

Interest expense
Interest expense includes mainly the interest incurred on our outstanding indebtedness, as well as amortization of deferred financing costs, mainly debt origination and commitment fees.
Gain on change in fair value of warrant liabilities and other
Changes in the fair value of our outstanding warrant liabilities and the Oaktree Tranche 2 Written Option are recognized on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Decreases or increases on the warrant liabilities and Oaktree Tranche 2 Written Option are based on changes to our fair market valuation.
Other expense
Expenses incurred that are not directly related to operations and historically have not been material.
Income tax expense (benefit)
Our income tax expense (benefit) consists primarily of federal and state income taxes and has historically not been material.
Results of Operations
We operate in one operating and reportable segment.

Revenue
The increase in revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was primarily due tohaving four new stores open in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 for the full period compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024, partially offset by modest decreases in volume at our 13 legacy locations.

As a percentage of revenue, the decrease in other store operating expenses, excluding depreciation, for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024 was primarily due to decreases in repairs and maintenance activities, credit card fees and technology, offset by an increase in insurance costs and janitorial costs in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024.

Revenue
The increase in revenue for the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 compared to the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023 was primarily due to having four new stores open in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 that were open for the full period compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2024, partially offset by modest decreases in volume at locations open greater than 24 months ("Mature Venues").

The increase in food and beverage costs for the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 compared to the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023 was due to an increase in food and beverage sales and more costs associated with the less efficient ramp up of our four new locations.
As a percentage of revenue, the increase in food and beverage costs for the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 compared to the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023 was primarily due to inefficiencies resulting from an increase in relatively higher cost open play sales (vs. private event sales) from the four new locations open for the entire twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 compared to the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
To date, we have funded our operations through proceeds received from previous common stock and preferred stock issuances, through borrowings under various lending commitments and through cash flow from operations. As of October 13, 2024 and April 28, 2024, we had $3.2 million and $13.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, respectively. Since the end of fiscal 2024, we have utilized cash of approximately $15.7 million and accordingly, as of November 25, 2024, we had approximately $2.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. In fiscal 2023, we borrowed $22.5 million under a term loan facility (the "Silverview Facility") with Silverview Credit Partners LP ("Silverview") and had access to second tranche in the amount of $12.5 million through the Silverview Facility. In fiscal 2023, we borrowed $11.5 million under an equipment loan facility (the "Granite Creek Facility") with Granite Creek Capital Partners LLC ("Granite Creek"). In fiscal 2024, we borrowed an additional $12.5 million under the Silverview Facility and an additional $5.0 million under the Granite Creek Facility. On December 29, 2023, we entered into a term loan agreement with Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC ("Oaktree"), as agent, under which we borrowed an additional $50.0 million (see Note 5). On September 3, 2024, we borrowed an additional $3.0 million and $2.0 million under the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan and the Silverview Tranche 3 Loan, respectively. If we are unable to generate positive operating cash flows, additional debt and equity financings may be necessary to sustain future operations, and there can be no assurance that such financing will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.
Historically, our primary liquidity and capital requirements have been for new location development, initiatives to improve the customer experience in our locations, working capital and general corporate needs. Landlords have provided substantial tenant improvement allowances for construction, customers generally pay using cash or credit and debit cards and, as a result, our operations do not generate significant receivables. We have benefited from tenant improvement allowances. Additionally, our operations do not require significant inventories due, in part, to our use of numerous fresh ingredients, and we are able to sell most of our inventory items before payment is due to the supplier of such items. There has been an increase in costs from delays in construction and the time needed to recoup these costs from operations of the new locations. As a result, we have obtained additional capital (see above and note 5).

In the first twenty-four weeks of fiscal 2024, we completed the closing of $19.8 million of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock, representing the sale of an aggregate of 850,648 shares of our Series I Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $25.00 per share. In connection with Reverse Recapitalization, the shares of Series I Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock were automatically cancelled and extinguished and converted into the right to receive shares of Pinstripes Class A Common Stock.
Another potential source of cash is proceeds from any exercises of Public Warrants or Private Warrants for cash (which have an aggregate exercise price of $275,827,500). However, the exercise price of each of the Public Warrants and Private Warrants is $11.50 per share, which exceeds the closing price of the Pinstripes Class A Common Stock on November 22, 2024, which was $0.85 per share, and we believe that, for so long as the Public Warrants and Private Warrants are "out of the money," the holders thereof are not likely to exercise the Public Warrants or the Private Warrants. Any cash proceeds associated with the exercise of the Public Warrants and the Private Warrants are dependent on our stock price. Accordingly, we have not included the net proceeds from any exercise of the Public Warrants or Private Warrants in our assessment of our liquidity and our ability to fund operations on a prospective basis.
The Company believes that its current earnings projections, which include full year results for the stores that opened during the fiscal year ended April 28, 2024 and new store openings, raise substantial doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and the Company's ability to meet its current obligations, including for capital expenditures, lease obligations and continued operations as they become due within one year from the financial statement issuance date. To alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, management is exploring additional financing and a capital raise by the end of the fiscal third quarter. Due to the uncertainties associated with these plans, management concluded that substantial doubt exists with respect to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the financial statement issuance date. See Note 5.

Net cash provided by financing activities 3,023 25,272
Net change in cash and cash equivalents $ (9,927) $ (445)
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $(10.1) million for the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 compared to $(15.9) million for the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities was due to lower accrued occupancy costs and other long-term assets as well as the gain on modification of operating leases that did not reoccur in the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024. The decrease was off set by a higher operating loss driven by cost of food and beverage, store labor and benefits, store occupancy costs, excluding depreciation, and other store operating expenses, excluding depreciation, plus the four new store locations open for the entire twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 as compared to the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $(2.8) million for the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 compared to $(9.8) million for the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023. Our purchase of property and equipment of $(2.8) million decreased in the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 from $(9.8) million in the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023 as there were less purchases that were offset by an increase in accumulated depreciation during the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 compared to the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024. There was more depreciation during the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 as all four new locations had a full quarter of depreciation.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.0 million for the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $25.3 million for the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023.

Table of Contents
The primary components of net cash provided by financing activities for the twenty-four weeks ended October 15, 2023 were proceeds from the issuance of the Series I Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock of $19.9 million. These proceeds were offset by proceeds from long-term notes payable of $7.5 million. The cash provided by financing activities for the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 consists of $4.8 million of additional debt financing obtained from Oaktree and Silverview, net of debt discount, offset by principal payments of long-term notes payable of $1.9 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of the date of this report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date, as well as reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our most significant estimates and judgments involve difficult, subjective or complex judgements made by management. Actual results may differ from these estimates. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the accounting policies described below involve a greater degree of judgment and complexity. Accordingly, these are the policies we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations. For further information, see Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in the 2024 Annual Report.
Leases
We have made an accounting policy election applicable to all asset classes not to record leases with an initial term of twelve months or less on the balance sheet as allowed under ASC 842. We lease all of our locations from third parties. For leases with an initial term greater than twelve months, a related lease liability is recorded on the balance sheet at the present value of future fixed payments discounted at our estimated fully collateralized borrowing rate corresponding with the lease term (i.e. incremental borrowing rate). In addition, a right-of-use asset is recorded as the initial amount of the lease liability, plus any initial direct costs incurred and lease prepayment, less any tenant improvement allowance incentives received. Most of our leases include one or more options to renew, with terms that can extend from five to ten years. To determine the expected lease term, we excluded all options to renew as it is not reasonably certain we would exercise these options.
Lease payments include fixed payments and variable payments for common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes, insurance related to leases or additional rent based upon sales volume (variable lease cost). Variable lease costs are expensed as incurred whereas fixed lease costs are recorded on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease. We do not separate lease and non-lease components (e.g. common area maintenance), which is a policy maintained for all asset classes. Leases do not contain any material residual value guarantee or material restrictive covenants.
The discount rate used to determine the amount of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities is the interest rate implicit in the lease, when known. If the rate is not implicit in the lease, we use our incremental borrowing rate, which is derived based on available information at the commencement date. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood there will be a material change in the future estimates or assumptions we use to calculate our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
We review long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and operating lease right-of-use assets with definitive lives, for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We perform our long-lived asset impairment analysis by grouping assets and liabilities at the individual store level, since this is the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities and evaluate the asset group against the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows.
In determining the undiscounted future cash flows, we consider historical cash flows and other relevant factors and circumstances, including the maturity of the store, changes in the economic environment, unfavorable changes in business climate and future operating plans. The significant inputs used in determining our estimate of the projected undiscounted future cash flows include future revenue growth, changes in store labor and operating costs, future lease payments and projected operating margins as well as the estimate of the remaining useful life of the assets. We believe our assumptions are reasonable based on available information. Changes in assumptions and estimates used in the impairment analysis, or future results that vary from assumptions used in the analysis, could affect the estimated fair value of long-lived intangible assets and could result in impairment charges in a future period.

Warrants
We account for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant's specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") ASC 480, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity" ("ASC 480"), and ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging"("ASC 815"). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, whether they meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company's own common stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require "net cash settlement" in a circumstance outside of the Company's control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The Public Warrants and Private Warrants meet the definition of a derivative instrument, requiring liability classification, and are measured at fair value on a recurring basis with the change in fair value recognized in the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants is measured by the Company's publicly traded warrant price. In determining the fair value of the Private Warrants, the Company utilizes the Cox-Rubenstein-Ross binomial lattice model using Level 3 inputs consisting of the fair value of the Public Warrants as of the measurement and implied equity volatility. See Note 10.
The Company determined the Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants meet the equity classification guidance and were measured at fair value upon issuance. Under the Oaktree loan agreement, the Company is contractually obligated to issue a specified number of warrants to Oaktree based on the scenarios described in Note 10. Therefore, the Additional Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants and Oaktree Tranche 2 Warrants (as defined in Note 10) are considered contingently issuable and the contingency is satisfied when Oaktree exercises its written option on the Oaktree Tranche 2 Loan and the Class A Common Stock meets the contingency requirements described in Note 10. When the contingently issuable warrants' contingency is satisfied, the respective shares underlying these warrants will be considered indexed to the Class A Common Stock and qualify for equity classification under the derivative scope exception provided by ASC 815 (see Note 10). The contingency was satisfied on the Additional Oaktree Tranche 1 Warrants when the Class A Common Stock met the contingency requirements described in Note 10. Additionally, when $3.0 million was funded under the Oaktree Tranche 2 Written Option, 174,750 warrants were issued and the contingency was satisfied (see Note 10). As such, these awards were reclassified from equity to liability. We believe our assumptions are reasonable based on available information. Changes in assumptions and estimates used in the warrants valuation, or future results that vary from assumptions used in the analysis, could affect the estimated fair value of warrant liabilities and could result in material charges in a future period.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize food and beverage revenues and recreation revenue when payment is tendered at the point of sale as the performance obligation has been satisfied. Food and beverage revenues include the sale of food and beverage products. Recreation revenue includes bowling and bocce sales. We recognize revenues net of discounts and taxes. We defer event deposits received from guests and recognized such deposits as revenue when the event is held. Event deposits received from customers in advance are included in amounts due to customers, and we recognize revenues from events when the event takes place.
We sell gift cards, which do not have expiration dates and do not deduct non-usage fees from outstanding gift card balances. We record gift card sales as a liability and recognized as revenue upon redemption by the customer. For unredeemed gift cards that we expect to be entitled to breakage and for which there is no legal obligation to remit the unredeemed gift card balances to the relevant jurisdictions, we recognize expected breakage as revenue in proportion to the pattern of redemption by the customers. The determination of the gift card breakage is based on our specific historical redemption patterns. The contract liability related to our gift cards is included in amounts due to customers in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We report revenues net of sales tax collected from customers. We include sales tax collected in other accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets until the taxes are remitted to the appropriate taxing authorities. We believe our assumptions are reasonable based on available information. Changes in assumptions and estimates used in the gift card breakage calculation, or future results that vary from assumptions used in
43

the analysis, could affect the estimated revenue recognized from gift card breakage and could result in material changes in a future period.
Classification of Instruments as Liabilities or Equity
We have applied ASC 480, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity," to classify as a liability or equity certain redeemable and/or convertible instruments, including our preferred stock. We determine the liability classification if the financial instrument is mandatory redeemable for cash or by issuing a variable number of equity shares.
If we determine that a financial instrument should not be classified as a liability, we then determine whether the financial instrument should be presented between the liability section and the equity section of the balance sheet as temporary equity. We determine financial instruments as temporary equity if the redemption of the preferred stock or other financial instrument is outside of our control. Otherwise, we account for the financial instrument as permanent equity.
Emerging Growth Company
The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies for up to five years or until we are no longer an emerging growth company. We qualify as an "emerging growth company" and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, the condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
This item is not applicable as the Company is a smaller reporting company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Prior to the Business Combination, Legacy Pinstripes was not required to certify effective disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting. Upon consummation of the Business Combination, management is required to certify financial and other information in our quarterly and annual reports and provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports 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 our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report (under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"). Based on that assessment, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as described below. Management's assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures is expressed at a level of reasonable assurance because management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.
Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As of April 28, 2024, we identified material weaknesses in relation to (i) our financial statement close process, (ii) our lease accounting processes and (iii) the maintenance and accuracy of our outstanding equity information and accounting for stock-based compensation. The material weakness related to our financial statement close process resulted from a lack of adequate policies, procedures, controls and sufficient technical accounting personnel to appropriately analyze, record and disclose accounting matters for routine and non-routine
44

transactions timely and accurately. This material weakness contributed to the material weakness related to our lease accounting process, which related to the design of the controls relating to the identification and assessment of lease agreement terms and conditions, assessment of lease modifications and related accounting treatment, as well as to the material weakness related to the design of controls in respect of issuing, tracking and maintaining accurate ledgers as to authorized, issued and outstanding shares and calculations of stock based compensation. This resulted in prior period errors in our accounting records related to our lease obligations, occupancy costs, right of use assets and related financial statement disclosures, along with errors in share capital amounts and stock based compensation, all of which were corrected in connection with the issuance of the audited consolidated financial statements of Pinstripes as of and for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023.
These material weaknesses did not result in any identified material misstatements to the financial statements, but based on these material weaknesses, management concluded that at April 28, 2024 and October 13, 2024, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.
Management's Remediation Plan
In response to the material weaknesses discussed above, we plan to continue efforts already underway to improve internal control over financial reporting, which include creating formal policies and procedures governing our financial statement close process, and control in the preparation, documentation and review of journal entries and account reconciliations.
We have taken measures to address the material weakness related to stock-based compensation identified in the 2024 Annual Report and enhance our internal control over financial reporting. Based on our remediation efforts and related testing, during the twelve weeks ended July 21, 2024 and the sixteen weeks ended April 28, 2024, we concluded that the material weakness related to stock compensation has been remediated. We have:
hired additional accounting and financial reporting personnel with U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting experience to facilitate second level reviews, and financial reporting oversight;
engaged a third-party equity plan administrator to account for our employee equity plan and transactions, which now tracks grants and cancellations as well as provides disclosure reports; and
implemented protocols and controls around stock grants and personnel termination processes and ensured proper communication and training around the implemented changes.
We are currently in the process of implementing measures to address the underlying causes of the remaining material weaknesses and the control deficiencies which include:
hiring additional accounting and financial reporting personnel with U.S. GAAP, and SEC reporting experience to facilitate second level reviews, and financial reporting oversight;
developing, communicating and implementing an accounting policy manual for our accounting and financial reporting personnel for recurring transactions and period-end closing processes;
establishing effective monitoring and oversight controls for non-recurring and complex transactions to ensure the accuracy and completeness of our financial statements and related disclosures;
reviewing and enhancing of IT general controls over information systems relevant to financial reporting, including privileged access and segregation of duties; and
realignment of existing personnel and the addition of both internal and external personnel to strengthen management's review and documentation over internal control over financial reporting.
We will continue to review and improve our internal control over financial reporting to address the underlying causes of the remaining material weaknesses and control deficiencies. We cannot be certain that the steps we are taking will be sufficient to remediate the control deficiencies that led to these material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting or prevent future material weaknesses or control deficiencies from occurring. In addition, we cannot be certain that we have identified all material weaknesses and control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting or that in the future we will not have additional material weaknesses or control deficiencies in its internal control over financial reporting. Further, we continue to review our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance as to the ability to comply with reporting requirements following the completion of the Business Combination.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for the remediation of the material weakness related to stock-based compensation and the efforts to remediate the other material weaknesses described above, there were no changes during the twenty-four weeks ended October 13, 2024 in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to material affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected.
These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies and procedures.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
For discussion of legal proceedings, see Note 12 to our condensed consolidated financial statements under "Part 1, Item 1. Financial Information" and under "Commitments and Contingencies" of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the "Risk Factors" section contained in the 2024 Annual Report, together with the cautionary statement under the caption "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors contained in our 2024 Annual Report. These described risks are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of the NYSE, which could result in the delisting of our securities, limit investors' ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions.
The Class A Common Stock and the warrants sold as part of the units in the IPO, whether they were purchased in the IPO or thereafter in the open market (the "Public Warrants"), are currently listed on the NYSE under the symbol "PNST" and the "PNST WS," respectively.
If we were to fail to meet the continued listing requirements of the NYSE or another national stock exchange, we and our stockholders could face significant material adverse consequences, including:
a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;
reduced liquidity for our securities;
a determination that the Class A Common Stock is a "penny stock," which would require brokers trading in the Class A Common Stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities;
a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and
a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.
On October 16, 2024, we were notified by the NYSE that we were not in compliance with Section 802.01B and Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because the Company's average market capitalization was less than $50 million over a consecutive 30 trading-day period and, at the same time, the average closing price of the Company's common stock was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. The notice does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company's Class A Common Stock from the NYSE.
We plan to submit a plan to the NYSE on or before November 30, 2024, that is intended to cure the market capitalization and stock price deficiencies and to return the Company to compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards. The Company can regain compliance at any time within the six-month period with respect of the minimum average share price deficiency if following receipt of the NYSE notice if on the last trading day of any calendar month during the cure period the Company has a closing share price of at least $1.00 and an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the 30 trading-day period ending on the last trading day of that month.
The NYSE will have 45 days after the receipt of the plan to review and determine whether the Company has made a reasonable demonstration of its ability to regain compliance with the minimum average market capitalization standard within the 18-month cure period. The NYSE will either accept the plan, at which time we would be subject to ongoing monitoring for compliance with the plan, or the NYSE will not accept the plan, and the Company would be subject to suspension and delisting procedures. If the NYSE accepts the plan and the Company satisfies the minimum average market capitalization standard, the Company's Class A Common Stock will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the 18-month cure period, subject to the Company's compliance with other continued listing standards, including the minimum average share price standard, and the Company will be subject to quarterly monitoring by the NYSE for compliance with the plan.
47
Table of Contents
Under the NYSE's rules, if the Company determines that, if necessary, it will cure the market capitalization and stock price deficiencies by taking an action that will require stockholder approval, it must so inform the NYSE in the above referenced notification and the market capitalization and price condition will be deemed cured if the market capitalization and price promptly exceeds $50 million and $1.00 per share, respectively, and the price remains above those levels for at least the following 30 trading days. The Company intends to consider available alternatives, including but not limited to a reverse stock split, that are subject to shareholder approval.
Substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern
There is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and the Company's ability to meet its current obligations, including for capital expenditures, lease obligations and continued operations as they become due within one year from the issuance date of the financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The principal conditions leading to this conclusion are our current earnings projections, which include full year results for the stores that opened during the fiscal year ended April 28, 2024 and new store openings. In order to alleviate these conditions, management is exploring additional financing and a capital raise by the end of the fiscal third quarter. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will have the ability to raise additional capital when needed. There can be no assurance that these plans will be successfully implemented or that they will mitigate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The inability to raise sufficient additional capital would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and likely cause the price of the Company's common stock to decline.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
None.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not Applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
(a) Securities Trading Plans of Directors and Executive Officers
During the fiscal quarter ended October 13, 2024, none of our directors or executive officers entered into, modified or terminated, contracts, instructions or written plans for the sale or purchase of our securities that were intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1 or that constituted non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements (as defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K).
