The Company recorded comparable restaurant revenue increases of 2.6% in the fiscal quarter ended March 3, 2013 and 5.7% for the full fiscal year. These increases were partially offset by certain temporary and permanent restaurant closings.
*Adjusted EBITDA is presented as a performance measure because management believes that it best represents the operating metrics of the Company without the potentially distortive effects of financing and fixed asset levels. The adjustments were made to remove non-operating, non-recurring items from EBITDA to improve comparability. These adjustments are outlined in the reconciliation attached to this release.
Cash balances as shown do not include restricted cash. Cash flow from operations is taken from the Company's financial statements and includes a number of working capital reconciling items such as changes in accruals, prepaids and accounts payable. In the Company's payment cycle, many payments are made on the first of the calendar month and thus can impair cash flow from operations when the period end changes from a date prior to the first of the month to a date after the first as it did in the fiscal period ending March 3, 2013.
The Company reported pre-tax net income for fiscal 2013 of $237,000 compared to a pre-tax loss of $1,290,000 in fiscal 2012. The improvement in net income reflects better restaurant operating metrics, accounting for an increase in restaurant profitability of 1.3% of sales and a reduction of general and administrative expense of $370,000. These improvements were partially offset by an increase of $710,000 in bank and capitalized lease interest in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012 due to the sale/leaseback of 29 restaurants by the Company in December 2011.

The above chart outlines the financial statement line items that reconcile the Company's net loss to EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization). Additionally, non-recurring, non-operating items are removed to arrive at Adjusted EBITDA. As a result, Adjusted EBITDA improves the comparability of EBITDA as a relative measure of the Company's performance from period to period.
