In this prospectus, we rely on and refer to information and statistics regarding our industry.

While we believe that the statistical data, market data and other industry data and forecasts are reliable, we have not independently verified the data.

Prospectus Summary

This summary highlights certain information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in shares of our common stock and it is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, the more detailed information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. Before you decide to invest in our common stock, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including “Risk Factors” beginning on page 8 and the financial statements and related notes included in this prospectus.

Immediately prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we will undertake a corporate conversion pursuant to which Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. will succeed to the business of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC and the holders of membership interests of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC will become stockholders of Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. In this prospectus, we refer to this transaction as the “corporate conversion.” References in this prospectus to our capitalization and other matters pertaining to our common equity relate to the capitalization and common equity of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC after giving effect to the corporate conversion. However, the financial statements and summary historical financial data included in this prospectus are those of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC and do not give effect to the corporate conversion.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, as used in this prospectus, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “our company” “Bricktown” and “our business” refer, prior to the corporate conversion discussed herein, to Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC, and after the corporate conversion to Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Further, unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “Company Restaurants” or the restaurants currently owned by the company includes the nine restaurants currently owned by the company and the restaurant that we have licensed to BT Concepts 71st Street LLC which we will acquire upon consummation of this offering (referred herein as “71st Street”). Lastly, references to our Remington Park restaurant and location refer to the company that we have a 50% ownership stake in that manages and operates various food and beverage outlets, including a licensed Bricktown Brewery restaurant at Remington Park, an Oklahoma City racetrack and casino. The financial results of our Remington Park restaurant are consolidated into our financial statements.

This prospectus includes trademarks, service marks and trade names owned by us or other companies. All trademarks, service marks and trade names included in this prospectus are the property of their respective owners.

Our Company

We are engaged in the business of developing, owning and operating Bricktown Brewery and Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen branded restaurants. Bricktown Brewery and Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen restaurants are multi-tap, casual plus dining restaurants featuring Bricktown brewed beers (which we brew in-house at one of our two brewing facilities) and other local beers along with a broad menu anchored in crafted burgers, artisanal pizza and our take on American comfort foods. Currently, we own or license restaurants in five states: Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Kansas and Missouri. As of the date hereof, there are 14 restaurant units operating under the Bricktown Brewery or Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen brand, each of which is in secondary and tertiary markets (based on population size) in its respective state.

The original Bricktown Brewery restaurant first opened in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in 1992 “serving local beer and great food with truly friendly service.” Subsequently, we have expanded within Oklahoma and into Kansas, Texas and Arkansas, with additional licensed restaurants in Oklahoma and Missouri. We currently own and operate ten restaurants, including a restaurant to be acquired with the proceeds of this offering. We have licensed the right to open and operate three additional restaurants which we manage. These three licensed restaurants are owned by related parties and are not a part of the Company, although we expect to generate cash from these licensed properties in the future as described below. We also own 50% of a company that manages and operates various food and beverage outlets, including a licensed Bricktown Brewery restaurant at Remington Park, an Oklahoma City racetrack and casino.

We are actively looking to expand our business and the number of Company Restaurants both in the states of Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas and Arkansas in which we operate and in the Southwest, Midwest, Southeast and Mid-South regions outside of our current footprint. We are also looking for complementary restaurant brands that we may acquire to give us additional synergistic growth opportunity.

Each of the Bricktown Brewery and Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen branded restaurants serves similar fare. Our menu features crafted burgers, artisanal style pizza and Bricktwisted® Comfort Food, our take on American comfort foods. The prices of our food items range from $3.50 to $16.00 per item which we believe makes our restaurants appealing to a variety of different guests and for various dining occasions (including everyday lunch and dinner as well as after work special occasions). Additionally, each of our Bricktown Brewery locations serve our own hand-crafted beers as well as a full line up of regional beers that we sell as “local beer.” We brew a variety of trademarked beers as well as non-alcoholic craft root beer at our original Bricktown Brewery location in downtown Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and at our satellite brewing facility, BTB Brewing Company, which is also in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Because of Texas state laws, each of our Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen locations feature regional local beer but do not sell our brewed beers. All restaurants serve a full complement of distilled spirts, beers and wine. Across the Company Restaurants in 2018, we had an average customer transaction of $18.10 with a sales ratio of 76% food and non-alcoholic beverages to 24% alcoholic beverages (of which Bricktown Brewery beers accounted for approximately one-third of the sales).

Our Business Strategy

We are focused on developing additional company owned Bricktown Brewery and/or Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen restaurants in Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Arkansas and Missouri, and are looking to expand to other markets in the Southwest, Midwest, Southeast and Mid-South. We believe that this expansion strategy will increase guest traffic and awareness of our brands. The following are key elements of our growth strategy.

1. Build or acquire new Bricktown restaurants. We intend to follow a disciplined strategy of securing strong locations in the secondary and tertiary markets in our existing five-state region to complement our stores in the primary markets, while judiciously expanding into new territories that meet our demographic, real estate and investment criteria (for example, a secondary market in Florida).

2. Grow Same Store Restaurant Sales. We will seek to increase guest frequency at our currently operating restaurants that are not at capacity, if any, and increase overall market share by consistently improving Bricktown’s “Guest Experience.” We intend to improve our performance by refreshing the interiors of certain units, modernizing digital and social marketing efforts, enabling more online ordering options and regularly introducing new Bricktown menu items and craft beers.

3. Quickly and cost-effectively scale our growth while leveraging our platform of outsourced services. We manage our general and administrative cost by outsourcing certain operations to service providers that we believe are best of breed in accounting, finance, legal and human resources. Together, these outsourced services provide us a platform of proven procedures we use to quickly onboard new units and launch them in their markets.

Recent Developments

Our consolidated financial statements for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2019 are not yet available. We have presented preliminary estimated ranges of certain of our financial results below for thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2019 based on information currently available to management. We have provided ranges, rather than specific amounts, for certain financial results below, primarily because our financial closing procedures for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not yet complete. As a result, our actual results may vary materially from the estimated preliminary results included herein and will not be publicly available until after the closing of this offering. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on these estimates. The preliminary financial data included in this prospectus has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, management. Our independent registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed, compiled, or performed any procedures with respect to the preliminary estimated financial data below and does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.

For the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2019, we estimate that our net revenues from our nine Company Restaurants will be approximately $6.0 million, an increase of $200 thousand, or 3.45% when compared to net revenues from our nine Company Restaurants of $5.8 million for the thirteen weeks ended April 1, 2018.

Corporate Conversion

We currently operate as a limited liability company, organized in the State of Oklahoma under the name Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC. Immediately prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC will convert from an Oklahoma limited liability company to a Delaware corporation and will be renamed Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. As a result of the corporate conversion the 10,000,000 units of membership interest held by the existing members of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC will be converted to 3,125,000 shares of common stock of Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc.

The purpose of the corporate conversion is to reorganize our corporate structure so that our company will continue as a corporation rather than a limited liability company following this offering, and so that our existing investors will own our common stock rather than equity interests in a limited liability company. For further information regarding the corporate conversion, see “Corporate Conversion.”

Risks Associated with our Business

Our business and ability to execute our business strategy are subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware before you decide to buy our common stock. In particular, you should consider the following risks, which are discussed more fully in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in this prospectus:

• our long-term success is highly dependent on our ability to successfully identify and secure appropriate sites and timely develop and expand our operations in existing and new markets;

• damage to our reputation could negatively impact our business, financial condition and results of operations;

• food safety and food-borne illness incidents may have an adverse effect on our business by not only reducing demand but also increasing operating costs;

• our dependence on our third-party vendors, suppliers and distributers could lead to shortages or interruptions in the supply or delivery of food products;

• loss of any members of our executive management team will significantly impair our ability to implement our business strategy;

• we face significant competition for customers, and our inability to compete effectively may affect our traffic, sales and operating profit margins; and

• declining economic conditions, including housing market downturns, rising unemployment rates, lower disposable income, credit conditions, fuel prices and consumer confidence and other events or factors that adversely affect consumer spending in the markets we serve.

Corporate Information

We were organized originally as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of Oklahoma in October, 2014 and will convert to a corporation immediately prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Our principal executive office is located at 14504 Hertz Quail Springs Parkway, Oklahoma City, OK 73134, and our phone number is (405) 285-5362.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies. These provisions include, but are not limited to:

• being permitted to present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this prospectus;

• not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act);

• reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements; and

• exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

In addition, an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This provision allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of some accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this extended transition period. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (i) our reporting $1.07 billion or more in annual gross revenues; (ii) the end of fiscal year 2023; (iii) our issuance, in a three year period, of more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; and (iv) the end of the fiscal year in which the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700 million on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter.

Risk Factors

Any investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below, which we believe represent certain of the material risks to our business, together with the information contained elsewhere in this prospectus, before you make a decision to invest in our shares of common stock. Please note that the risks highlighted here are not the only ones that we may face. For example, additional risks presently unknown to us or that we currently consider immaterial or unlikely to occur could also impair our operations. If any of the following events occur or any additional risks presently unknown to us actually occur, our business, financial condition and operating results may be materially adversely affected. In that event, the trading price of our securities could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Relating to Our Business, Strategy and Industry

Our financial results depend significantly upon the continued success of our existing restaurants and our Remington Park partnership and our ability to develop profitable new restaurants.

Our ability to generate revenue and earn profit depends on our ability to develop profitable new restaurants, maintain or grow sales and efficiently manage costs in our existing restaurants and any new restaurants we may open and continue to effectively manage our Remington Park operations. As of May 10, 2019, we own and operate nine restaurants, have entered into an agreement to purchase 71st Street and co-manage, for a share of the profits, various bars and restaurants at Remington Park (we also licensed out our intellectual property to and entered into management agreements with three restaurants for which we receive or will receive management fees, but we do not expect these fees to be material to our future growth). While we have exhibited some success in opening new restaurants, growing sales and managing costs of our Company Restaurants and managing our Remington Park partnership over the past few years, this success may not be indicative of longer-term performance or the potential market acceptance of restaurants and brands in other locations. If we are unable to develop profitable new restaurants, maintain or grow sales and efficiently manage costs in our existing restaurants and any new restaurants we may open and continue to effectively manage our Remington Park operations, it will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our revenues are dependent on continued customer traffic and spending.

We believe that the success of our restaurants revolves principally around customer traffic and average check per customer and customer experience. Significant factors that might adversely affect the average customer traffic and average check include, without limitation:

• increased competition in the restaurant industry, particularly in the casual and fast-casual dining segments;

• changes in consumer preferences;

• customers’ budgeting constraints;

• customers’ failure to accept menu price increases that we may make to offset increases in key operating costs;

• our reputation and consumer perception of our concept’s offerings in terms of quality, price, value, ambience and service; and

• customer experiences from dining in our restaurants.

Any declines in customer traffic or average check per customer will have a material adverse impact on our business and financial condition.

We do not have control over the cost and availability of many of our key operating expenses.

Our restaurants are susceptible to increases in certain key operating expenses that are either wholly or partially beyond our control, including, without limitation:

• food and other raw materials costs, many of which we do not or cannot effectively hedge;

• labor costs, including wage, workers’ compensation, health care and other benefits expenses;

• rent expenses and construction, remodeling, maintenance and other costs under leases for our new and existing restaurants;

• compliance costs as a result of changes in regulatory or industry standards;

• energy, water and other utility costs;

• costs for insurance (including health, liability and workers’ compensation);

• information technology and other logistical costs; and

• expenses due to litigation.

Any material increases in our operating expenses will have a material impact on our financial condition and business operations.

Our future growth depends in part on our ability to open profitable new restaurants. If we are unable to open new restaurants, there are delays in opening new restaurants or if the new restaurants that we open are not profitable, it will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

For the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018, average restaurant-level EBITDA across our Company Restaurants was $370,000 (see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis — Results of Operations — Restaurant-level EBITDA” for the definition of restaurant-level EBITDA and corresponding reconciliation). We believe that by opening up new restaurant locations, we can take advantage of economies of scale and reduce operating and expansion costs thereby increasing our revenue. Accordingly, our growth strategy for the foreseeable future is to continue opening new restaurants and working to operate those restaurants on a profitable basis. Although we have licensed related parties to open one new restaurant in 2016 and three new restaurants in 2018, we have not opened new Company Restaurants in the last several years. We opened two Company Restaurants in 2014, two in 2015, four in 2016, zero in 2017 and 2018, and zero so far in 2019 and we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, delays in opening these new restaurants once conceptualized. There are many factors that could impact our ability to open a new restaurant or delay the opening of a new restaurant including, but not limited to:

• finding suitable locations for new restaurants;

• inconsistent development schedules due to financing and construction delays in new developments;

• negotiating leases for new locations with acceptable terms, including sufficient levels of tenant allowances;

• timely delivery of leased premises to us from our landlords and punctual commencement of our build-out construction activities;

• managing construction and development costs of new restaurants, particularly in competitive markets;

• identifying, hiring and training qualified employees in each local market;

• obtaining construction materials and labor at acceptable costs;

• securing required liquor licenses in a timely manner;

• securing required governmental approvals, permits and other licenses (including construction and other permits) in a timely manner and responding effectively to any changes in local, state or federal laws and regulations;

• unforeseen engineering or environmental problems with the leased premises; and

• avoiding the impact of inclement weather, natural disasters and other calamities.

Further, even if we are able to successfully open new restaurants in a timely manner, there is no guarantee that such restaurants will be profitable or that the presence of such restaurants will meaningfully reduce our operating and expansion costs. If we are unable to open new restaurants, there are delays in opening new restaurants or if the new restaurants that we open are not profitable, it will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The success of our long-term future growth strategy is highly dependent on our ability to effectively identify and secure appropriate sites for new restaurants.

We intend to develop new restaurants in our existing markets, expand our footprint into adjacent markets and selectively enter into new markets. To build new restaurants, we must first identify markets where we can enter or expand our footprint, taking into account numerous factors, including the location of our current restaurants, local economic trends, population density, area demographics and geography. Then we must secure appropriate restaurant sites, which is one of our biggest challenges. There are numerous factors involved in identifying and securing an appropriate restaurant site, including:

• evaluating size of the site, traffic patterns, local retail and business attractions and infrastructure that will drive high levels of customer traffic and sales;

• competition in new markets, including competition for restaurant sites;

• financial conditions affecting developers and potential landlords, such as the effects of macro-economic conditions and the credit market, which could lead to these parties delaying or canceling development projects (or renovations of existing projects), in turn reducing the number of appropriate restaurant sites available;

• the financial viability of our landlords, including the availability of financing for our landlords and our landlords’ ability to pay tenant incentives on a timely basis;

• developers and potential landlords obtaining licenses or permits for development projects on a timely basis;

• proximity of potential restaurant sites to existing restaurants;

• anticipated commercial, residential and infrastructure development near the potential restaurant site; and

• availability of acceptable lease terms and arrangements.

Given the numerous factors involved, we may not be able to successfully identify and secure attractive restaurant sites in existing, adjacent or new markets, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The planned rapid increase in the number of our restaurants may make our future results unpredictable and failure to manage our growth effectively could harm our business and operating results.

Our growth plan includes opening a significant number of new restaurants. This growth strategy and the substantial investment associated with the development of each new restaurant may cause our operating results to fluctuate unpredictably or have an adverse effect on our profits (for example, if we find that our restaurant concept has limited appeal in new markets or we may experience a decline in the popularity of our restaurant concept in the markets in which we operate). Additionally, we may not respond quickly enough to the changing demands that our expansion will impose on our management, restaurant teams and existing infrastructure. Managing our growth effectively will require us to continue to monitor the performance of our new restaurants and the performance of our management team and staff relative to our expansion. If newly opened restaurants are not successful, our system-wide average restaurant revenue does not increase at historical rates, or we cannot effectively manage our expansion, it will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We will require additional capital to support business growth, and this capital might not be available.

We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and might require additional funds to respond to business challenges or opportunities, including the need to open additional restaurants, develop new products and menu items, enhance our products and menu items, or enhance our operating infrastructure acquisitions. Accordingly, we might need to engage in equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing secured by us in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital-raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which might make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. Moreover, if we issue new debt securities, the debt holders would have rights senior to common stockholders to make claims on our assets. In addition, we might not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be significantly limited.

We operate in the highly competitive restaurant industry. If we are not able to compete effectively, it will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We face significant competition from restaurants in the full-service casual dining, brewpub, and fast casual dining segments of the restaurant industry. These segments are highly competitive with respect to, among other things, taste, price, food quality and presentation, beer selection, brewed beers service, location, and the ambience and condition of each restaurant. Our competition includes a variety of locally-owned restaurants and national and regional chains offering dine-in, carry-out, delivery, and catering services. Many of our competitors have existed longer and have a more established market presence with substantially greater financial, marketing, personnel and other resources than we do. Among our competitors are a number of multi-unit, multi-market, casual dining and brewpub restaurant concepts, some of which are expanding nationally. As we expand, we will face competition from these restaurant concepts as well as new competitors that strive to compete with our market segments. These competitors may have, among other things, lower operating costs, better locations, better facilities, better management, more effective marketing, and more efficient operations. Additionally, we face the risk that new or existing competitors will copy our business model, menu options, presentation or ambience, among other things.

Any inability to successfully compete with the restaurants in our markets will place downward pressure on our customer traffic and may prevent us from increasing or sustaining our revenue and profitability. Consumer tastes in both food away from home and beer, nutritional and dietary trends, traffic patterns and the type, and the number and location of competing restaurants often affect the restaurant business, and our competitors may react more efficiently and effectively to those conditions. In addition, many of our casual dining restaurant competitors offer lower-priced menu options, meal packages, or loyalty programs. Our sales could decline due to changes in popular tastes, “fad” food regimens such as low carbohydrate diets, and media attention on new restaurants. If we are unable to continue to compete effectively, our traffic, sales and restaurant contribution could decline which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our expansion into new markets may present increased risks.

We plan to open restaurants in markets where we have little or no operating experience. Restaurants we open in new markets may take longer to reach expected sales and profit levels on a consistent basis and may have higher construction, occupancy or operating costs than restaurants we open in existing markets, thereby affecting our overall profitability. New markets may have competitive conditions, consumer tastes and discretionary spending patterns that are more difficult to predict or satisfy than our existing markets. We may need to make greater investments than we originally planned in advertising and promotional activity in new markets to build brand awareness. We may find it more difficult in new markets to hire, motivate and keep qualified employees who share our vision, passion and culture. We may also incur higher costs from entering new markets if, for example, we assign regional managers to manage comparatively fewer restaurants than in more developed markets. As a result, these new restaurants may be less successful or may achieve average restaurant-level EBITDA which are less than system average (average restaurant-level EBITDA is restaurant-level EBITDA attributable to the Company divided by total company-operated units and is used to assess the relative success of individual stores — see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis — Results of Operations — Restaurant-level EBITDA” for the definition

of restaurant-level EBITDA and corresponding reconciliation). We may not be able to successfully develop critical market presence for our brand in new geographical markets, as we may be unable to find and secure attractive locations, build name recognition or attract new customers. Inability to fully implement or failure to successfully execute our plans to enter new markets could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

New restaurants, once opened, may not be profitable, and the increases in average restaurant revenue and same store restaurant sales that we have experienced in the past may not be indicative of future results.

Typically, when we open a new restaurant, we see higher than average sales volumes at the new location for approximately the first 24 months of operations followed by a subsequent decrease in sales to stabilized levels (we refer to this initial start-up period of higher than normal sales as the “honeymoon” period). However, we cannot assure you that this will occur for future restaurant openings. In new markets, the length of time before average sales for new restaurants stabilize is less predictable and can be shorter as a result of our limited knowledge of these markets and consumers’ limited awareness of our brand. In addition, our average restaurant revenue and same store restaurant sales following the honeymoon period may not increase at the rates achieved over the past several years, particularly if a specific restaurant approaches capacity. Our ability to operate new restaurants profitably (both during and after the honeymoon period) and increase average restaurant revenue and same store restaurant sales after the honeymoon period will depend on many factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:

• consumer awareness and understanding of our brand;

• general economic conditions, which can affect restaurant traffic, local labor costs and prices we pay for the food products and other supplies we use;

• changes in consumer preferences and discretionary spending;

• difficulties obtaining or maintaining adequate relationships with distributors or suppliers in new markets;

• increases in prices for commodities, including beef and other proteins;

• inefficiency in our labor costs as the staff gains experience;

• competition, either from our competitors in the restaurant industry or our own restaurants;

• temporary and permanent site characteristics of new restaurants;

• changes in government regulation; and

• other unanticipated increases in costs, any of which could give rise to delays or cost overruns.

If our new restaurants do not perform as planned, our business and future prospects could be harmed. In addition, an inability to achieve our expected average restaurant revenue would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our sales growth and ability to achieve profitability could be adversely affected if same store restaurant sales are less than we expect.

The level of same store restaurant sales, which reflect the change in year-over-year sales for “stabilized” restaurants in the accounting period following their 24th full monthly period of operations (following the “honeymoon” period), will affect our sales growth and will continue to be a critical factor affecting our ability to generate profits since the profit margin on “stabilized” restaurant sales is generally higher than the profit margin on new restaurant sales. Our ability to increase same store restaurant sales in locations after their 24th month of operation depends in part on our ability to successfully implement our initiatives to build sales. It is possible such initiatives will not be successful and that we will not achieve our target same store restaurant sales growth or that the change in same store restaurant sales could be negative, which may cause a decrease in sales growth and ability to achieve profitability that would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes in economic conditions and adverse weather and other unforeseen conditions, particularly in the markets in which we operate, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The restaurant industry depends on consumer discretionary spending. The United States in general or the specific markets in which we operate may suffer from depressed economic activity, recessionary economic cycles, higher fuel or energy costs, low consumer confidence, high levels of unemployment, reduced home values, increases in home foreclosures, investment losses, personal bankruptcies, reduced access to credit or other economic factors that may affect consumer discretionary spending. Traffic in our restaurants could decline if consumers choose to dine out less frequently or reduce the amount they spend on meals while dining out. Negative economic conditions might cause consumers to make long-term changes to their discretionary spending behavior, including dining out less frequently on a permanent basis, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, regional occurrences in the markets in which we operate, such as local strikes, terrorist attacks, increases in energy prices, adverse weather conditions, tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, droughts, fires or other natural or man-made disasters, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Adverse weather conditions may also impact customer traffic at our restaurants, and, in more severe cases, cause temporary restaurant closures, sometimes for prolonged periods. Most of our restaurants have outdoor seating, and the effects of adverse weather may impact the use of these areas and may negatively impact our revenue. If restaurant revenue decreases, our profitability could decline as we spread fixed costs across a lower level of sales. Reductions in staff levels, asset impairment charges and potential restaurant closures could result from prolonged negative restaurant revenue, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, changes in economic conditions, adverse weather conditions or other unforeseen conditions in states in which we operate, or in the future may operate, could have a disproportionate impact on our overall results of operations. In particular, our business is significantly concentrated in Oklahoma, and as a result, we could be disproportionately affected by conditions specific to this market. Specifically, our restaurants in Oklahoma generated, in the aggregate, approximately 58.3% of our revenue in fiscal year 2018 and approximately 58.3% of our revenue in fiscal year 2017. Therefore, adverse changes in demographic, unemployment, economic or regulatory conditions in or around the State of Oklahoma would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. As of December 30, 2018, unemployment in Oklahoma was 3.3% compared to the U.S. unemployment rate of 3.9%. We believe increases in unemployment will have a negative impact on traffic in our restaurants. As a result of our concentration in Oklahoma, we would likely be disproportionately affected by these adverse economic conditions compared to other chain restaurants.

Opening new restaurants in existing markets may negatively impact sales at our existing restaurants.

While our core business growth strategy does not currently entail opening new restaurants in existing markets (to avoid any potential of a new restaurant materially affecting sales at our existing restaurants), we may selectively open new restaurants in and around market areas of existing restaurants if we believe the market area is strong enough to support an additional restaurant. The opening of a new restaurant in or near markets in which we already have restaurants could adversely impact sales at these existing restaurants. Existing restaurants could also make it more difficult to build our consumer base for a new restaurant in the same market.

Our restaurants have benefited from an increase in demand for micro-brewed beers and there is no guarantee that this will be sustainable.

We have benefited from the recent increase in demand for micro-brewed beers over the past several years in terms of beer sales to our customers and part of our growth strategy includes showcasing micro-brewed beers to increase customer traffic. However, there can be no assurance that the demand for micro-brewed beer will continue to grow at the present rate, if at all, or that circumstances wouldn’t develop to cause the demand for micro-brewed beer to diminish. If the demand for micro-brewed beer diminishes or if the availability of micro-brewed beers continues to increase, our sales and potentially our customer traffic may diminish.

Additionally, our brewing operation is highly dependent upon the suppliers of various raw ingredients and other materials, delivery services and our ability to retain or replace our expert brew masters to oversee the brewing

operations. The loss of any suppliers, the increased costs of any raw ingredients or other materials needed for the brewing process or our failure to retain or replace our brew master will significantly impact our ability to continue brewing.

Furthermore, brewery operations are subject to specific hazards, including the contamination of the brews by microorganisms and risks of equipment failure. Although we have procured insurance to cover such risks, there can be no assurance that such insurance coverage will be adequate or will continue to be available on price or other terms satisfactory to us.

We are subject to all of the risks associated with leasing space subject to long-term non-cancelable leases.

With the exception of the land and building on which the BTB Brewing satellite brewing operations are located, we do not own any real property. Payments under our operating leases account for a significant portion of our operating expenses and we expect the new restaurants we open in the future will also be leased. We are obligated under non-cancelable leases for our restaurants and our corporate headquarters. Our restaurant leases generally have a term of 10 years with two five-year renewal options. Our restaurant leases generally require us to pay a proportionate share of real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance charges and other operating costs. Some restaurant leases provide for contingent rental payments based on sales thresholds, although we generally do not expect to pay significant contingent rent on these properties based on the thresholds in those leases. Additional sites that we lease are likely to be subject to similar long-term non-cancelable leases. If an existing or future restaurant is not profitable, and we decide to close it, we may nonetheless be committed to perform our obligations under the applicable lease including, among other things, paying the base rent for the balance of the lease term. In addition, as each of our leases expires, we may fail to negotiate renewals, either on commercially acceptable terms or at all, which could cause us to pay increased occupancy costs or to close restaurants in desirable locations. These potential increased occupancy costs and closed restaurants could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes in food and supply costs or failure to receive frequent deliveries of food ingredients and other supplies could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our profitability depends in part on our ability to anticipate and react to changes in food and supply costs, and our ability to maintain our menu depends in part on our ability to acquire ingredients that meet our specifications from reliable suppliers. Shortages or interruptions in the availability of certain ingredients and supplies caused by unanticipated demand, problems in production or distribution, failure of any of our distributors or suppliers to deliver on a timely basis, food contamination or other food safety concerns, inclement weather or other changes in climate conditions, unanticipated seasonal fluctuations, product recalls, increases in the price of inputs such as feed for animals, geopolitics (i.e., implementation of tariffs) or other governmental regulations or other conditions could adversely affect the availability, quality and cost of our ingredients, which could harm our operations. Additionally, we currently do not purchase any of our ingredients or supplies with long-term fixed pricing or use futures contracts or other financial risk management strategies to reduce our exposure to potential price fluctuations. Therefore, any increases in price of the ingredients and supplies most critical to our menu (ground beef, fresh chicken, bacon and cheese, have historically been our largest commodity expenditures, and accounted for more than 27.0% of our total food purchases food total costs in the 52 weeks ended December 30, 2018) could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations (for example, by requiring us to remove items from our menu) and financial results (specifically, because we provide moderately priced food, we may choose not to, or may be unable to, pass along price increases to consumers).

Litigation and publicity concerning product quality, health and other issues, which can result in liabilities and also cause customers to avoid our products, could adversely affect our results of operations, business and financial condition.

Beverage and food service businesses can be adversely affected by litigation and complaints from customers or government authorities resulting from food and beverage quality, adulteration, product tampering, illness, injury or other health concerns or operating issues stemming from the handling and consumption of products, including the sale of alcohol to minors and any damages that may result therefrom. In addition, it is possible that our employees or customers will be injured in industrial accidents at our company-owned breweries. We are subject to liquor liability or “dram shop” statutes under state law, which generally provide a person injured by an intoxicated person the right to recover damages from an establishment that wrongfully served alcohol beverages to the intoxicated person. As a result

of any such litigation or complaints, we could incur significant liabilities if a lawsuit or claim results in a decision against us, or litigation costs, regardless of the result, and any liabilities may exceed our insurance coverage limits. Further, any litigation may cause our key employees to expend resources and time normally devoted to the operations of our business. Adverse publicity about these claims or lawsuits may also negatively affect us, regardless of their merit, by discouraging customers from buying our products.

Failure to maintain the safety and quality of our products will have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our success depends in large part on our ability to maintain consumer confidence in the safety and quality of our products. We have rigorous product safety and quality standards which we expect to meet. If we fail to comply with applicable product safety and quality standards and our products on the market are, or become, contaminated or adulterated, we may be required to conduct costly product recalls and may become subject to product liability claims and negative publicity, which could cause our reputation and business to suffer.

Food safety and foodborne illness concerns could have an adverse effect on our business.

We cannot guarantee that our internal controls and training will be fully effective in preventing all food safety issues at our restaurants, including any occurrences of foodborne illnesses such as salmonella, E. coli and hepatitis. In addition, there is no guarantee that our licensed restaurants will maintain the high levels of internal controls and training we require at our company-owned restaurants. Some foodborne illness incidents could be caused by third-party vendors and transporters outside of our control. New illnesses resistant to our current precautions may develop in the future, or diseases with long incubation periods could arise, that could give rise to claims or allegations on a retroactive basis. One or more instances of foodborne illness in any of our restaurants or markets or related to food products we sell could negatively affect our restaurant revenue nationwide if highly publicized on national media outlets or through social media. This risk exists even if it were later determined that the illness was wrongly attributed to us or one of our restaurants. A number of other restaurant chains have experienced incidents related to foodborne illnesses that have had a material adverse effect on their operations. The occurrence of a similar incident at one or more of our restaurants, or negative publicity or public speculation about an incident, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

An increase in energy costs could harm our financial results.

From time to time, we may experience significant variation in direct and indirect energy costs, and energy costs could rise unpredictably. Increased energy costs would result in higher transportation, freight and other operating costs, including increases in the cost of ingredients and supplies. Our future operating expenses and margins could be dependent on our ability to manage the impact of such cost increases. If energy costs increase, there is no guarantee that such costs can be fully passed along to consumers through increased prices. Additionally, the restaurant industry has been negatively impacted by high gasoline prices because of the reduction high gasoline prices cause in the discretionary disposable income of consumers.

Our current insurance may not provide adequate levels of coverage against claims.

Our current insurance policies may not be adequate to protect us from liabilities that we incur in our business. Additionally, in the future, our insurance premiums may increase, and we may not be able to obtain similar levels of insurance on reasonable terms, or at all. Any substantial inadequacy of, or inability to obtain insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

There are types of losses we may incur that cannot be insured against or that we believe are not economically reasonable to insure. Such losses could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. As a public company, we intend to enhance our existing directors’ and officers’ insurance. While we expect to obtain such coverage, we may not be able to obtain such coverage at all or at a reasonable cost now or in the future. Failure to obtain and maintain adequate directors’ and officers’ insurance would likely adversely affect our ability to attract and retain qualified officers and directors.

In connection with our preparation of our financial statements, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Any failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could harm us.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). During the preparation of our financial statements for both 2017 and 2018, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), a deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or personnel, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. The PCAOB defines a material weakness as a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis.

The material weaknesses we identified, and the steps we are taking to address these control issues, are as follows:

• In prior periods, we did not have proper processes and controls in place over the Company’s financial closing procedures which included not reconciling balance sheet accounts timely to ensure that expenses were recorded in the correct accounting period. While we have implemented controls and processes we believe address this matter, they have not been in place for a sufficient period of time to determine that the material weakness has been remediated as of December 30, 2018.

• We did not maintain adequate policies and processes for the review and approval of journal entries. We plan to update our current policies and implement procedures and controls over the review and approval of journal entries by the appropriate personnel in fiscal 2019.

• We did not timely identify and evaluate certain technical accounting and financial reporting matters. We plan on adding additional accounting personnel, with the appropriate skills, knowledge and experience to ensure timely identification and evaluation of technical accounting matters and financial reporting processes in fiscal 2019.

See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for more information.

We and our independent registered public accounting firm are not required to, and did not, perform an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 30, 2018, in accordance with the provisions of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we have identified all, or that we will not in the future have additional, material weaknesses. Material weaknesses may still exist when we report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act after the completion of this offering.

If we are unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or when required in the future, if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an unqualified opinion as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected and we could become subject to litigation or investigations by the stock exchange on which our securities are listed, the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources.

Risks Relating to the Remington Park Operations and Our Licensed Restaurants

Our financial results at Remington Park are contingent upon factors outside of our control.

Our Remington Park location is housed within the Remington Park Racing — Casino and is part of a larger racetrack and casino operation. Accordingly, customer traffic and sales are highly dependent on customer traffic at the raceway and casino. If there are any changes to the business or operations of the raceway or casino that reduce customer traffic, including regulatory changes, changes in customer preference, economic downturns, and the like, it will could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our joint venture with Global Gaming RP, LLC relating to the Remington Park operations, and specifically, the joint venture’s management agreement with Remington Park, is set to expire in August 2020 (subject to an automatic five year extension assuming that such joint venture is not earlier terminated) and there is no guarantee that we will be able to renew this relationship at its expiration.

We own 50% of EBGG-JV LLC (“EBGG”), an Oklahoma limited liability company that manages, pursuant to a management agreement, certain food and beverage services at Remington Park Racing — Casino, a racetrack and casino owned by Global Gaming RP, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Chickasaw Nation (“Global Gaming”). The other 50% of EBGG is owned by Global Gaming. To date, we have generated material revenue from this joint venture. However, the term of the management agreement is set to expire in August 2020, subject to an automatic five year extension unless earlier terminated. If we are unable to negotiate an extension of the term of the management agreement or if the management agreement is terminated prior to the automatic extension by Global Gaming, we will lose this source of revenue which may have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.

While we have entered into licensee management agreement with each of our licensed restaurants, because we do not own these restaurants, we cannot fully control whether the restaurants operate in a manner consistent with our standards.

We have entered into licensing agreements with related parties that allow them to own and operate 3 additional Bricktown Brewery restaurants (excluding 71st Street) using our trademarks, tradename and intellectual property. We manage and oversee operations at each of these locations pursuant to the licensee management agreements, but we do not own these locations, and the financing and debt obligations associated with these locations are the responsibility of the owners of these locations. Should any of these licensed restaurants not operate in a manner consistent with our standards and requirements, it may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. See the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.”

While we plan to acquire 71st Street following the consummation of this offering, there is no guarantee that we will receive the necessary approval from the Oklahoma Alcoholic Beverage Laws Enforcement Commission (or ABLE).

We have entered into an agreement to purchase the 71st Street contingent upon consummation of the offering. However, our acquisition of 71st Street will require approval from ABLE. Failure to receive approval from ABLE for the acquisition of 71st Street may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition.

Risks Relating to Our Vendors, Suppliers, Distributors, Management Team and Workforce

We rely heavily on certain vendors, suppliers and distributors, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our ability to maintain consistent price and quality throughout our restaurants depends in part upon our ability to acquire specified food products and supplies in sufficient quantities from third-party vendors, suppliers and distributors at a reasonable cost. We use a limited number of suppliers and distributors in various geographical areas, particularly with respect to our fresh food products. We also rely on one broad-line food distributor as our primary distributor, which supplied our Company Restaurants with approximately 99% of our food supplies during the 2018 fiscal year. We do not control the businesses of our vendors, suppliers and distributors, and our efforts to specify and monitor the standards under which they perform may not be successful. Furthermore, certain food items are perishable, and we have limited control over whether these items will be delivered to us in appropriate condition for use in our restaurants. If any of our vendors or other suppliers are unable to fulfill their obligations to our standards, or if we are unable to find replacement providers in the event of a supply or service disruption, we could encounter supply shortages and incur higher costs to secure adequate supplies, which could lead to disruptions to our menu and would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, if our current vendors or other suppliers are unable to support our expansion into new markets, or if we are unable to find vendors to meet our supply specifications or service needs as we expand, we could likewise encounter supply shortages and incur higher costs to secure adequate supplies, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We also outsource all accounting, payroll and human resource functions and management information systems to a business process service provider, Abacus Systems Solutions LLC (“Abacus”). See the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions.” The failure of Abacus to fulfill its obligations could disrupt our operations. Additionally, any changes we may make to the services we obtain from Abacus, or new vendors we employ, may disrupt our operations. These disruptions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We depend on our senior management team and other key employees, and the loss of one or more key personnel or an inability to attract, hire, integrate and retain highly skilled personnel could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our success depends largely upon the continued services of our key executives. We also rely on our leadership team in setting our strategic direction, operating our business, identifying, recruiting and training key personnel, identifying expansion opportunities, and arranging necessary financing and general and administrative functions. From time to time, there may be changes in our executive management team resulting from the hiring or departure of executives, which could disrupt our business. The loss of one or more of our executive officers or other key employees could have a serious adverse effect on our business. The replacement of one or more of our executive officers or other key employees would involve significant time and expense and may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives.

To continue to execute our growth strategy, we also must identify, hire and retain highly skilled personnel. We might not be successful in maintaining our unique culture and continuing to attract and retain qualified personnel. Failure to identify, hire and retain necessary key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We could be party to litigation that could distract management, increase our expenses or subject us to material monetary damages or other remedies.

Our customers may occasionally file complaints or lawsuits against us alleging we caused an illness or injury they suffered at or after a visit to our restaurants, or that we have problems with food quality or operations. We may also be subject to a variety of other claims arising in the ordinary course of our business, including personal injury claims, contract claims and claims alleging violations of federal and state law regarding workplace and employment matters, equal opportunity, harassment, discrimination and similar matters, and we could become subject to class action or other lawsuits related to these or different matters in the future. In recent years, a number of restaurant companies have been subject to such claims, and some of these lawsuits have resulted in the payment of substantial damages by the defendants. Regardless of whether any claims against us are valid, or whether we are ultimately held liable, claims may be expensive to defend and may divert time and money away from our operations and hurt our performance. A judgment in excess of our insurance coverage for any claims could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Any adverse publicity resulting from these allegations may also materially and adversely affect our reputation, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, the restaurant industry has been subject to a growing number of claims based on the nutritional content of food products sold and disclosure and advertising practices. We may also be subject to this type of proceeding in the future and, even if we are not, publicity about these matters (particularly directed at the fast casual or traditional fast food segments of the industry) may harm our reputation and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Labor shortages, unionization activities, labor disputes or increased labor costs could negatively impact our growth and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Labor is a primary component in the cost of operating our restaurants. If we face labor shortages or increased labor costs because of increased competition for employees, higher employee turnover rates, increases in the federal, state or local minimum wage or other employee benefits costs (including costs associated with health insurance coverage), our operating expenses could increase and our growth could be negatively impacted. In addition, our success depends in part upon our ability to attract, motivate and retain a sufficient number of well-qualified restaurant operators and management personnel, as well as a sufficient number of other qualified employees, including customer service and kitchen staff, to keep pace with our expansion schedule. In addition, restaurants have traditionally experienced relatively high employee turnover rates. Although we have not yet experienced significant problems in recruiting or retaining

employees, our ability to recruit and retain such individuals may delay the planned openings of new restaurants or result in higher employee turnover in existing restaurants, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Although none of our employees are currently covered under collective bargaining agreements, if a significant number of our employees were to become unionized and collective bargaining agreement terms were significantly different from our current compensation arrangements, it could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, a labor dispute involving some or all of our employees may harm our reputation, disrupt our operations and reduce our revenue, and resolution of disputes may increase our costs.

If we are unable to continue to recruit and retain sufficiently qualified individuals, our business and our growth could be adversely affected. Competition for these employees could require us to pay higher wages, which could result in higher labor costs. In addition, increases in the minimum wage would increase our labor costs. Furthermore, costs associated with workers’ compensation are rising, and these costs may continue to rise in the future. We may be unable to increase our menu prices in order to pass these increased labor costs on to consumers, in which case our margins would be negatively affected, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The minimum wage continues to increase and is subject to factors outside of our control.

We have a substantial number of hourly employees who are paid wage rates based on the applicable federal or state minimum wage. Although our pay scale starts at or in excess of the minimum wage, any increases in the minimum wage may increase our labor costs. Municipalities may set minimum wages above the applicable state standards. The federal minimum wage has been $7.25 per hour since July 24, 2009. Either federally-mandated or state-mandated minimum wages may be raised in the future. On November 6, 2018, Missouri voters approved Proposition B, the $12 Minimum Wage Initiative, which, beginning in January 2019, increased and will continue to increase the state’s then current $7.85 minimum wage by $0.85 per hour each year until reaching $12 in 2023 and will require that tipped employees be paid at least 50 percent of the minimum wage. We may be unable to increase our menu prices in order to pass future increased labor costs on to our customers, in which case our margins would be negatively affected, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, if menu prices are increased by us to cover increased labor costs, the higher prices could adversely affect sales and thereby reduce our margins.

Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property, Brand, Corporate Culture and Information Technology

We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property, which could harm the value of our brand and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our intellectual property is material to the conduct of our business. Our ability to implement our business plan successfully depends in part on our ability to further build brand recognition using our trademarks, service marks, trade dress and other proprietary intellectual property, including our name and logos and the unique ambience of our restaurants. While it is our policy to protect and defend vigorously our rights to our intellectual property, we cannot predict whether steps taken by us to protect our intellectual property rights will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of these rights or the use by others of restaurant features based upon, or otherwise similar to, our restaurant concept. It may be difficult for us to prevent others from copying elements of our concept and any litigation to enforce our rights will likely be costly and may not be successful. Although we believe that we have sufficient rights to all of our trademarks and service marks, we may face claims of infringement that could interfere with our ability to market our restaurants and promote our brand. Any such litigation may be costly and could divert resources from our business. Moreover, if we are unable to successfully defend against such claims, we may be prevented from using our trademarks or service marks in the future and may be liable for damages, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, we license certain of our proprietary intellectual property, including our name and logos, to third parties. For example, we grant our licensed restaurants a right to use certain of our trademarks in connection with their operation of the applicable restaurant. If a licensed restaurant fails to maintain the quality of the restaurant operations associated with the licensed trademarks, our rights to, and the value of, our trademarks could potentially be harmed. Failure to maintain, control and protect our trademarks and other proprietary intellectual property would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and on our ability to enter into new franchise agreements.

Failure to maintain our corporate culture and changes in consumer recognition of our brand as we grow could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We believe that a critical component to our success has been our corporate culture. We have invested substantial time and resources in building our team. As we continue to grow, we may find it difficult to maintain the innovation, teamwork, passion and focus on execution that we believe are important aspects of our corporate culture. Any failure to preserve our culture could negatively affect our future success, including our ability to retain and recruit personnel and to effectively focus on and pursue our corporate objectives. If we cannot maintain our corporate culture as we grow, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, our future results depend on various factors, including local market acceptance of our restaurants and consumer recognition of the quality of our food, beer and operations. Although we have received recognition for the high-quality of our food, beer and operations, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to receive similar recognition in future periods. Failure to receive continued local and regional recognition may impact consumer recognition of our brand, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Negative publicity relating to one of our restaurants, including one of our licensed restaurants, could reduce sales at some or all of our other restaurants.

Our success is dependent in part upon our ability to maintain and enhance the value of our brand, consumers’ connection to our brand and positive relationships with our licensed restaurants. We may, from time to time, be faced with negative publicity relating to food quality, public health concerns, restaurant facilities, customer complaints or litigation alleging illness or injury, health inspection scores, integrity of our or our suppliers’ food processing, employee relationships or other matters, regardless of whether the allegations are valid or whether we are held to be responsible. The negative impact of adverse publicity relating to one restaurant may extend far beyond the restaurant involved to affect some or all of our other restaurants. The considerable expansion in the use of social media over recent years can further amplify any negative publicity that could be generated by such incidents. A similar risk exists with respect to unrelated food service businesses, if consumers associate those businesses with our own operations.

Additionally, employee claims against us based on, among other things, wage and hour violations, discrimination, harassment or wrongful termination may also create negative publicity that could adversely affect us and divert our financial and management resources that would otherwise be used to benefit the future performance of our operations. A significant increase in the number of these claims or an increase in the number of successful claims would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Consumer demand for our products and our brand’s value could diminish significantly if any such incidents or other matters create negative publicity or otherwise erode consumer confidence in us or our products, which would likely result in lower sales and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We rely heavily on information technology, and any material failure, weakness, interruption or breach of security could prevent us from effectively operating our business.

Our information systems may experience an interruption or breach in security. We rely heavily on both company and third-party information systems, including point-of-sale processing in our restaurants, for management of our supply chain, payment of obligations, collection of cash, credit and debit card transactions and other processes and procedures. Our ability to efficiently and effectively manage our business depends significantly on the reliability and capacity of these systems. Our operations depend upon our ability to protect our computer equipment and systems against damage from physical theft, fire, power loss, telecommunications failure or other catastrophic events, as well as from internal and external security breaches, viruses and other disruptive problems. The failure of these systems to operate effectively, maintenance problems, upgrading or transitioning to new platforms, or a breach in security of these systems could result in delays in customer service and reduce efficiency in our operations. Remediation of such problems could result in significant unplanned capital investments.

We may incur costs resulting from breaches of security of confidential consumer information related to our electronic processing of credit and debit card transactions.

The majority of our restaurant sales are by credit or debit cards. Other restaurants and retailers have experienced security breaches in which credit and debit card information has been stolen. We may in the future become subject to claims for purportedly fraudulent transactions arising out of the actual or alleged theft of credit or debit card information, and we

may also be subject to lawsuits or other proceedings relating to these types of incidents. In addition, most states have enacted legislation requiring notification of security breaches involving personal information, including credit and debit card information. Any such claim or proceeding could cause us to incur significant unplanned expenses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, adverse publicity resulting from these allegations may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Risks Related to Governmental Rules and Regulations

Governmental regulation may adversely affect our ability to open new restaurants or otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to various federal, state and local regulations, including those relating to building and zoning requirements and those relating to the preparation and sale of food and the brewing and transportation of beer. The development and operation of restaurants depends to a significant extent on the selection and acquisition of suitable sites, which are subject to zoning, land use, environmental, traffic and other regulations and requirements. Our restaurants are also subject to state, local and even federal licensing and regulation by health, sanitation, food and occupational safety and other agencies. Our brewing operations are regulated by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, statutorily named the Tax and Trade Bureau (the “TTB”), a bureau of the United States Department of the Treasury, which regulates and collects taxes on trade and imports of alcohol, tobacco, and firearms within the United States. We may experience material difficulties or failures in obtaining the necessary licenses, approvals or permits for our restaurants, which could delay planned restaurant openings or affect the operations at our existing restaurants. In addition, stringent and varied requirements of local regulators with respect to zoning, land use and environmental factors could delay or prevent development of new restaurants in particular locations.

We are subject to the U.S. Americans with Disabilities Act (the “ADA”) and similar state laws that give civil rights protections to individuals with disabilities in the context of employment, public accommodations and other areas, including our restaurants. We may in the future have to modify restaurants by adding access ramps or redesigning certain architectural fixtures, for example, to provide service to or make reasonable accommodations for disabled persons. The expenses associated with these modifications could be material.

Our operations are also subject to the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Act, which governs worker health and safety, the U.S. Fair Labor Standards Act, which governs such matters as minimum wages and overtime, and a variety of similar federal, state and local laws that govern these and other employment law matters. We may also be subject to lawsuits from our employees, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or others alleging violations of federal and state laws regarding workplace and employment matters, discrimination and similar matters, and we have been a party to such matters in the past. In addition, federal, state and local proposals related to paid sick leave or similar matters could, if implemented, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

There is also a potential for increased regulation of certain food establishments in the United States, where compliance with a Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (“HACCP”) approach would be required. HACCP refers to a management system in which food safety is addressed through the analysis and control of potential hazards from production, procurement and handling, to manufacturing, distribution and consumption of the finished product. Many states have required restaurants to develop and implement HACCP Systems, and the United States government continues to expand the sectors of the food industry that must adopt and implement HACCP programs. For example, the Food Safety Modernization Act, signed into law in January 2011, granted the U.S. Food and Drug Administration new authority regarding the safety of the entire food system, including through increased inspections and mandatory food recalls. Although restaurants are specifically exempted from or not directly implicated by some of these new requirements, we anticipate that the new requirements may impact our industry. Additionally, our suppliers may initiate or otherwise be subject to food recalls that may impact the availability of certain products, result in adverse publicity or require us to take actions that could be costly for us or otherwise impact our business.

The impact of current laws and regulations, the effect of future changes in laws or regulations that impose additional requirements and the consequences of litigation relating to current or future laws and regulations, or our inability to respond effectively to significant regulatory or public policy issues, could increase our compliance and other costs of doing business and, therefore, have an adverse effect on our results of operations. Failure to comply with the laws and regulatory requirements of federal, state and local authorities could result in, among other things, revocation of required licenses, administrative enforcement actions, fines and civil and criminal liability. In addition, certain laws,

including the ADA, could require us to expend significant funds to make modifications to our restaurants if we failed to comply with applicable standards. Compliance with the aforementioned laws and regulations can be costly and can increase our exposure to litigation or governmental investigations or proceedings, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

Failure to obtain and maintain required licenses and permits or to comply with food control regulations could lead to the loss of our food service licenses and, thereby, harm our business.

The restaurant industry is subject to various federal, state and local government regulations, including those relating to the sale of food. Such regulations are subject to change from time to time. The failure to obtain and maintain these licenses, permits and approvals could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Typically, licenses must be renewed annually and may be revoked, suspended or denied renewal for cause at any time if governmental authorities determine that our conduct violates applicable regulations. Difficulties or failure to maintain or obtain the required licenses and approvals could adversely affect our existing restaurants and delay or result in our decision to cancel the opening of new restaurants, which would have a material adverse effect on our business.

We are subject to substantial regulations regarding our sale and distribution of spirits, beer and wine.

Currently, the sale of distilled spirits, beer, and wine account for approximately 25% of the total Company revenue. The Company is required to operate in compliance with federal licensing requirements imposed by the TTB as well as licensing requirements of states and municipalities where its restaurants are or will be located. Failure to comply with federal, state or local regulations could cause the Company’s licenses to be revoked and forced to cease the brewing and/or sale of alcoholic beverages at its restaurants.

Additionally, state liquor laws may prevent or impede the expansion of the Company’s restaurants into certain markets. The liquor laws of certain states prevent the Company from selling beer brewed at its restaurant or micro-brewery wholesale or through self-distribution. Any difficulties, delays or failures in obtaining such licenses, permits or approvals could delay or prevent the opening of a restaurant in a particular area. In 2016, following an amendment to the Oklahoma Constitution, ABLE regulations thereunder were substantially rewritten with an effective date of October 1, 2018. Because these laws and regulations are new, there is little if any precedent for how they will be interpreted or applied, and there is consequently some uncertainty as to their impact on our business. Historically we have only brewed beer that contain 3.2% or less alcohol by volume, and prior to October 1, 2018, the brewing of beer that contain 3.2% or less alcohol by volume was not regulated by ABLE. Beginning October 1, 2018, our brewing operations became subject to the regulation by the State of Oklahoma and ABLE for the first time. Under the new Oklahoma law and ABLE regulations, our brewing operations are licensed as small brewers and the downtown brewery will also be licensed as a brewpub which will allow us to brew full strength beer and to self-distribute to our locations and locations with more than 50% common ownership with us.

The distribution and sale of beer has historically been subject to a continuously changing tax regime.

Historically, there has been significant variation in the taxation of beer sales. As recently as December 2017, the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” was passed by Congress which provided, among other things, a temporary reduction in federal excise taxes on beer to $3.50 per gallon for the first 60,000 barrels for domestic brewers producing fewer than 2 million barrels annually. Further, individual states also impose excise taxes on alcoholic beverages in varying amounts. In the future, the excise tax rate could be increased by either the federal or state governments. Future increases in excise taxes on alcoholic beverages could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

New information or attitudes regarding diet and health could result in changes in regulations on consumer consumption which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Regulations and consumer eating may change as a result of new information or attitudes regarding diet and health. Such changes may include responses to scientific studies on the health effects of particular food items or federal, state and local regulations that impact the ingredients and nutritional content of the food and beverages we offer. The success of our restaurant operations is dependent, in part, upon our ability to effectively respond to changes in any consumer attitudes or health regulations and our ability to adapt our menu offerings to trends in food consumption, especially fast-moving trends. If consumer health regulations or consumer eating changes significantly, we may choose or be required to modify or delete certain menu items, which may adversely affect the attractiveness of our restaurants

to new or returning customers. While we generally find that changes in consumer eating occur slowly, providing us with sufficient time to adapt our restaurant concept accordingly, changes in consumer eating could occur rapidly, often in response to published research or study information, which puts additional pressure on us to adapt quickly. To the extent we are unwilling or unable to respond with appropriate changes to our menu offerings in an efficient manner, it could materially affect consumer demand and have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Government regulation and consumer eating may impact our business as a result of changes in attitudes regarding diet and health or new information regarding the adverse health effects of consuming certain menu offerings. These changes have resulted in, and may continue to result in, laws and regulations requiring us to disclose the nutritional content of our food offerings, and they have resulted, and may continue to result in, laws and regulations affecting permissible ingredients and menu offerings. A number of counties, cities and states have enacted menu labeling laws requiring multi-unit restaurant operators to disclose to consumers certain nutritional information, or have enacted legislation restricting the use of certain types of ingredients in restaurants, which laws may be different or inconsistent with requirements under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (the “PPACA”), which establishes a uniform, federal requirement for certain restaurants to post nutritional information on their menus. Although we are currently not required to post nutritional information on their menus, if in the future we grow to 20 or more locations, the PPACA will require us to publish the total number of calories of standard menu items on menus and menu boards, along with a statement that puts this calorie information in the context of a total daily calorie intake.

We may not be able to effectively respond to changes in consumer health perceptions, comply with further nutrient content disclosure requirements or adapt our menu offerings to trends which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes in employment laws may adversely affect our business.

Various federal and state labor laws govern the relationship with our employees and impact operating costs. These laws include employee classification as exempt or non-exempt for overtime and other purposes, minimum wage requirements, unemployment tax rates, workers’ compensation rates, immigration status and other wage and benefit requirements. Significant additional government-imposed increases in the following areas could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations:

• minimum wages;

• mandatory health benefits;

• vacation accruals;

• paid leaves of absence, including paid sick leave; and

• tax reporting.

In addition, various states in which we operate are considering or have already adopted new immigration laws or enforcement programs, and the U.S. Congress and Department of Homeland Security from time to time consider and may implement changes to federal immigration laws, regulations or enforcement programs as well. Some of these changes may increase our obligations for compliance and oversight, which could subject us to additional costs and make our hiring process more cumbersome, or reduce the availability of potential employees. Although we require all workers to provide us with government-specified documentation evidencing their employment eligibility, some of our employees may, without our knowledge, be unauthorized workers. Unauthorized workers are subject to deportation and may subject us to fines or penalties, and if any of our workers are found to be unauthorized we could experience adverse publicity that negatively impacts our brand and may make it more difficult to hire and keep qualified employees. Termination of a significant number of employees who were unauthorized employees may disrupt our operations, cause temporary increases in our labor costs as we train new employees and result in additional adverse publicity. We could also become subject to fines, penalties and other costs related to claims that we did not fully comply with all recordkeeping obligations of federal and state immigration compliance laws. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The effect of changes to healthcare laws in the United States may increase the number of employees who choose to participate in our healthcare plans, which may significantly increase our healthcare costs and negatively impact our financial results.

In 2010, the PPACA was signed into law in the United States to require health care coverage for many uninsured individuals and expand coverage to those already insured. We currently offer and subsidize a portion of comprehensive healthcare coverage, primarily for our salaried employees. The PPACA will require us to offer healthcare benefits to all full-time employees (including full-time hourly employees) that meet certain minimum requirements of coverage and affordability, or face penalties. We began to offer such benefits on October 1, 2015, and in 2016 incurred substantial additional expense due to an increased number of employees who elected to obtain coverage through our healthcare plan for which we subsidize in part. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act passed on December 22, 2017 removed the tax penalty on an individual’s income tax starting in 2018, but any additional legislation regarding universal coverage may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We provide healthcare coverage to qualifying employees of the licensed restaurants under our plans, and are reimbursed by for those costs by the licensed restaurants.

Risks Relating to Our Indebtedness

We have a significant amount of outstanding indebtedness owed to Praesidian Capital. Our failure to repay this indebtedness in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on our company.

We have an outstanding credit facility with Praesidian Capital pursuant to which we owe Praesidian Capital $11,314,260 in principal, of which Praesidian Capital has agreed to convert $5 million in principal amount into our Series A Preferred Stock concurrently with our corporate conversion). The credit facility matures on June 30, 2020 and has a fixed interest rate of 10.5%. If we are unable to make timely payments of principal and interest on this credit facility, we will be deemed in default which will subject us to penalties under the facility and will have a material adverse impact on our company.

The terms of our credit facility may restrict our current and future operations, which could adversely affect our ability to respond to changes in our business and to manage our operations.

Our credit facility contains, and any additional debt financing we may incur would likely contain, covenants requiring us to maintain or adhere to certain financial ratios or limits and covenants that restrict our operations, including limitations on our ability to grant liens, incur additional debt, pay dividends, make certain investments and engage in certain merger, consolidation or asset sale transactions. Complying with these covenants could adversely affect our ability to respond to changes in our business and manage our operations. A failure by us to comply with the financial ratios and restrictive covenants contained in our credit facility and any future financing instruments could result in an event of default. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding to be due and payable and exercise other remedies as set forth in our credit facility and any future financing instruments. If the indebtedness under our credit facility and any future financing instruments were to be accelerated, our future financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

We may be unable to obtain debt or other financing on favorable terms or at all.

There are inherent risks in our ability to borrow. Our lenders may have suffered losses related to their lending and other financial relationships, especially because of the general weakening of the national economy, increased financial instability of many borrowers and the declining value of their assets. As a result, lenders may become insolvent or tighten their lending standards, which could make it more difficult for us to borrow under our senior secured credit facility, refinance our existing indebtedness or to obtain other financing on favorable terms or at all. Our financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected if we were unable to draw funds under our senior secured credit facility because of a lender default or to obtain other cost-effective financing. Longer term disruptions in the capital and credit markets as a result of uncertainty, changing or increased regulation, reduced alternatives or failures of significant financial institutions could adversely affect our access to liquidity needed for our business. Any disruption could require us to take measures to conserve cash until the markets stabilize or until alternative credit arrangements or other funding for our business can be arranged. Such measures could include deferring capital expenditures (including the opening of new restaurants) and reducing or eliminating other discretionary uses of cash.

Risks Relating to Our Securities and this Offering

There is no existing market for our securities and we do not know if one will develop to provide you with adequate liquidity. Even if a market does develop following this offering, the stock prices in the market may not exceed the offering price.

Prior to this offering, there has not been a public market for our securities. We cannot assure you that an active trading market for our common stock will develop following this offering, or if it does develop, it may not be maintained. You may not be able to sell your shares quickly or at the market price if trading in our common stock is not active. The initial public offering price for the shares will be determined by negotiations between us and representatives of the underwriters and may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the trading market following the completion of this offering. Consequently, you may not be able to sell shares of our common stock at prices equal to or greater than the price you pay in this offering.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

The trading price of our common stock is likely to be volatile. This volatility may prevent you from being able to sell your shares at or above the price you paid for your shares. Our stock price could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a variety of factors, which include:

• variations in our operating performance and the performance of our competitors or restaurant companies in general;

• actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly or annual operating results;

• publication of research reports by securities analysts about us or our competitors or our industry;

• the public’s reaction to our press releases, our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;

• our failure or the failure of our competitors to meet analysts’ projections or guidance that we or our competitors may give to the market;

• additions and departures of key personnel;

• strategic decisions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions, divestitures, spin-offs, joint ventures, strategic investments or changes in business strategy;

• the passage of legislation or other regulatory developments affecting us or our industry;

• speculation in the press or investment community;

• changes in accounting principles;

• terrorist acts, acts of war or periods of widespread civil unrest;

• natural disasters and other calamities; and

• changes in general market and economic conditions.

In addition, the stock market in general, and the stock of restaurant companies in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Broad market and industry factors may negatively affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been initiated against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention and resources, and could also require us to make substantial payments to satisfy judgments or to settle litigation.

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly and could fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors due to seasonality and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, resulting in a decline in our stock price.

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly because of several factors, including:

• the timing of new restaurant openings and related expense;

• restaurant operating costs for our newly-opened restaurants;

• labor availability and costs for hourly and management personnel;

• profitability of our restaurants, especially in new markets;

• customer traffic based on timing of holidays;

• changes in interest rates;

• increases and decreases in average restaurant revenue and same store restaurant sales;

• impairment of long-lived assets and any loss on restaurant closures;

• macroeconomic conditions, both nationally and locally;

• negative publicity relating to the consumption of seafood or other products we serve;

• changes in consumer preferences and competitive conditions;

• expansion to new markets;

• increases in infrastructure costs; and

• fluctuations in commodity prices.

Unanticipated fluctuations in our quarterly operating results could result in a decline in our stock price.

The NASDAQ Capital Market may not list our securities, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions.

We anticipate that our securities will be listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market, a national securities exchange, upon consummation of this offering. Although, after giving effect to this offering, we expect to meet, on a pro forma basis, The NASDAQ Capital Market’s minimum initial listing standards, which generally mandate that we meet certain requirements relating to stockholders’ equity, market capitalization, aggregate market value of publicly held shares and distribution requirements, we cannot assure you that we will be able to meet those initial listing requirements. If The NASDAQ Capital Market does not list our securities for trading on its exchange, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

• a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;

• reduced liquidity with respect to our securities;

• a determination that our shares of common stock are “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in our shares of common stock to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our shares of common stock;

• a limited amount of news and analyst coverage for our company; and

• a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

The National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Assuming our common stock will be listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market, our common stock will be covered securities. Although the states are preempted from regulating the sale of our securities, the federal statute does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent activity, then the states can regulate

or bar the sale of covered securities in a particular case. Furthermore, if we were no longer listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market, our common stock would not be covered securities and we would be subject to regulation in each state in which we offer our securities.

Our failure to meet the continued listing requirements of The NASDAQ Capital Market could result in a de-listing of our common stock.

If after listing we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of The NASDAQ Capital Market, such as the corporate governance requirements or the minimum closing bid price requirement, the NASDAQ Stock Market (or NASDAQ) may take steps to de-list our common stock. Such a de-listing would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our common stock when you wish to do so. In the event of a de-listing, we would take actions to restore our compliance with NASDAQ’s listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our common stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock, prevent our common stock from dropping below the NASDAQ minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with NASDAQ’s listing requirements.

If our shares are delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market and become subject to the penny stock rules, it would become more difficult to trade our shares.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (or SEC) has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If we do not obtain or retain a listing on The NASDAQ Capital Market and if the price of our common stock is less than $5.00, our common stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares.

We have no current plans to pay cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future, and you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell your common stock for a price greater than that which you paid for it.

We may retain future earnings, if any, for future operations, expansion and debt repayment and have no current plans to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Any decision to declare and pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. In addition, our ability to pay dividends may be limited by covenants of any existing and future outstanding indebtedness we or our subsidiaries incur, including our credit facility. As a result, you may not receive any return on an investment in our common stock unless you sell our common stock for a price greater than that which you paid for it and any potential investor who anticipates the need for current dividends should not purchase our securities. See the section entitled “Dividend Policy.”

There can be no assurance that we will ever provide liquidity to our investors through a sale of our company.

While acquisitions of restaurant holding companies like ours are not uncommon, potential investors are cautioned that no assurances can be given that any form of merger, combination, or sale of our company will take place following this offering, or that any merger, combination, or sale, even if consummated, would provide liquidity or a profit for our investors following this offering. You should not invest in our company with the expectation that we will be able to sell the business in order to provide liquidity or a profit for our investors.

Our management will have broad discretion in how we use the net proceeds of this offering and might not use them effectively.

Our management will have considerable discretion over the use of proceeds from this offering. You will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used in a manner which you may consider most appropriate. Our management might spend a portion or all of the net proceeds from this offering in ways that our stockholders do not desire or that might not yield a favorable return. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business. Furthermore, you will have no direct say on how our management allocates the net proceeds of this offering. Until the net proceeds are used, they may be placed in investments that do not produce significant income or that may lose value.

In making your investment decision, you should understand that we and the underwriters have not authorized any other party to provide you with information concerning us or this offering.

You should carefully evaluate all of the information in this prospectus before investing in our company. We may receive media coverage regarding our company, including coverage that is not directly attributable to statements made by our officers, that incorrectly reports on statements made by our officers or employees, or that is misleading as a result of omitting information provided by us, our officers or employees. We and the underwriters have not authorized any other party to provide you with information concerning us or this offering, and you should not rely on this information in making an investment decision.

Future sales by our stockholders may adversely affect our stock price and our ability to raise funds in new stock offerings.

Sales of our common stock in the public market following this offering could lower the market price of our common stock. Sales may also make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that our management deems acceptable or at all. Assuming our corporate conversion, of the 3,125,000 shares of common stock outstanding as of May 10, 2019, no shares are, or will be, freely tradable without restriction immediately after the consummation of this offering, but approximately 420,625 of these shares, representing shares not held by our “affiliates,” generally may be resold under SEC Rule 144 beginning 90 days from the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, subject to any lock-up agreements entered into between such stockholder and Think Equity on behalf of the underwriters.

Additionally, we intend to register shares of common stock that are reserved for issuance under our 2019 Equity Incentive Plan. For more information, see the section entitled “Shares Eligible for Future Sale — Registration Statements on Form S-8.”

Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market after this offering, or the perception that such sales will occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and make it difficult for us to raise funds through securities offerings in the future. Of the shares to be outstanding after this offering, the shares offered by this prospectus will be eligible for immediate sale in the public market without restriction by persons other than our affiliates.

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering and may experience additional dilution in the future.

You will incur immediate and substantial dilution as a result of this offering. After giving effect to the sale by us of 1,875,000 shares of common stock offered in this offering at a public offering price of $8.00 per share (the mid-point of the range appearing on the front cover of this prospectus), and after deducting underwriting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, investors in this offering can expect an immediate dilution of $6.46 per share, or approximately 81%, at the assumed public offering price. Additionally, to the extent that these warrants, or options we will grant to our officers, directors and employees, are ultimately exercised, you will sustain future dilution. We may also acquire new restaurants or finance strategic alliances by issuing equity, which may result in additional dilution to our stockholders. Following the completion of this offering, our board of directors has the authority, without action or vote of our stockholders, to issue all or any part of our authorized but unissued shares of common stock, including shares issuable upon the exercise of options, or shares of our authorized but unissued preferred stock. Issuances of common stock or voting preferred stock would reduce your influence over matters on which our stockholders vote and,

in the case of issuances of preferred stock, would likely result in your interest in us being subject to the prior rights of holders of that preferred stock. See the section entitled “Dilution.”

We will incur significant increased costs as a result of operating as a public company and our management will be required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.

As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and NASDAQ, has imposed various requirements on public companies. Our management and other personnel will need to devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. Moreover, we anticipate that compliance with these rules and regulations will increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs substantially. A number of those requirements will require us to carry out activities we have not done previously. For example, we will create new board committees and adopt new internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures. In addition, these rules and regulations may make our activities related to legal, accounting and financial compliance more difficult, time-consuming and costly and may also place undue strain on our personnel, systems and resources. Furthermore, if we identify any issues in complying with those requirements (for example, if we or our auditors identify a material weakness or significant deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting), we could incur additional costs rectifying those issues, and the existence of those issues could adversely affect us, our reputation or investor perceptions of us. If these requirements divert the attention of our management and personnel from other business concerns, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For example, we expect these rules and regulations to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to incur substantial costs to maintain our current levels of such coverage. We estimate the additional costs we may incur to respond to these requirements to range from $500,000 to $1,000,000 million annually, although unforeseen circumstances could increase actual costs. These increased costs will require us to divert a significant amount of money that we could otherwise use to expand our business and achieve our strategic objectives. Advocacy efforts by stockholders and third parties may also prompt additional changes in governance and reporting requirements, which could further increase our costs.

An investment in our company may involve tax implications, and you are encouraged to consult your own advisors as neither we nor any related party is offering any tax assurances or guidance regarding our company or your investment.

The formation of our company and our financings, as well as an investment in our company generally, involves complex federal, state and local income tax considerations. Neither the Internal Revenue Service nor any State or local taxing authority has reviewed the transactions described herein, and may take different positions than the ones contemplated by management. You are strongly urged to consult your own tax and other advisors prior to investing, as neither we nor any of our officers, directors or related parties is offering you tax or similar advice, nor are any such persons making any representations and warrants regarding such matters.

Unanticipated changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income or other tax returns could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We will be subject to income taxes in the United States, and our domestic tax liabilities will be subject to the allocation of expenses in differing jurisdictions. Our future effective tax rates could be subject to volatility or adversely affected by a number of factors, including:

• changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities;

• expected timing and amount of the release of any tax valuation allowances;

• tax effects of stock-based compensation;

• costs related to intercompany restructurings;

• changes in tax laws, regulations or interpretations thereof; or

• lower than anticipated future earnings in jurisdictions where we have lower statutory tax rates and higher than anticipated future earnings in jurisdictions where we have higher statutory tax rates.

In addition, we may be subject to audits of our income, sales and other transaction taxes by federal, state and local authorities. Outcomes from these audits could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

U.S. federal income tax reform could adversely affect us and holders of our shares.

On December 22, 2017, President Trump signed into law the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” which significantly revised the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The new legislation, among other things, changes the U.S. federal income tax rates, imposes significant additional limitations on the deductibility of interest, allows the expensing of capital expenditures, and puts into effect the migration from a “worldwide” system of taxation to a territorial system. The impact of this new tax legislation, or of any future administrative guidance interpreting provisions thereof, on holders of our shares is uncertain and could be adverse. This prospectus does not discuss any such tax legislation or the manner in which it might affect holders of our shares. We urge prospective investors to consult with their legal and tax advisors with respect to any such legislation and the potential tax consequences of investing in our shares.

Changes to accounting rules or regulations may adversely affect the reporting of our results of operations.

Changes to existing accounting rules or regulations may impact the reporting of our future results of operations or cause the perception that we are more highly leveraged. Other new accounting rules or regulations and varying interpretations of existing accounting rules or regulations have occurred and may occur in the future. For example, in February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” This update requires a lessee to recognize on the balance sheet the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with a lease term of more than twelve months. This update also requires additional disclosures about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. While the Company is still evaluating the guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements, we expect the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as we will recognize the right-of-use assets and liabilities for current operating leases, but will likely have an insignificant impact on the consolidated statement of operations or cash flows and overall liquidity. This and other future changes to accounting rules or regulations could have a material adverse effect on the reporting of our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes to estimates related to our property, fixtures and equipment or operating results that are lower than our current estimates at certain restaurant locations may cause us to incur impairment charges on certain long-lived assets, which may adversely affect our results of operations.

In accordance with accounting guidance as it relates to the impairment of long-lived assets, we make certain estimates and projections with regard to individual restaurant operations, as well as our overall performance, in connection with our impairment analyses for long-lived assets. When impairment triggers are deemed to exist for any location, the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are compared to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge equal to the difference between the carrying value and the fair value is recorded. The projections of future cash flows used in these analyses require the use of judgment and a number of estimates and projections of future operating results. If actual results differ from our estimates, additional charges for asset impairments may be required in the future. If future impairment charges are significant, this could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

As an “emerging growth company” under applicable law, we will be subject to lessened disclosure requirements, which could leave our stockholders without information or rights available to stockholders of more mature companies.

For as long as we remain an “emerging growth company”, we have elected to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to:

• not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

• taking advantage of an extension of time to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards;

• reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements; and

• exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We expect to take advantage of these reporting exemptions until we are no longer an “emerging growth company.” Because of these lessened regulatory requirements, our stockholders would be left without information or rights available to stockholders of more mature companies.

Because we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards for an “emerging growth company” our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards for an emerging growth company. This election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates, and thus investors may have difficulty evaluating or comparing our business, performance or prospects in comparison to other public companies, which may have a negative impact on the value and liquidity of our common stock.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our common stock adversely, the price of our common stock and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our common stock may be influenced by the research and reports that securities or industry analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our common stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our common stock would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us was to cease coverage of our company or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause the price of our common stock or trading volume to decline.

Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company and may affect the trading price of our common stock.

Upon the completion of our anticipated corporate conversion, we will be a Delaware corporation. The anti-takeover provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control by prohibiting us from engaging in a business combination with an interested stockholder for a period of three years after the person becomes an interested stockholder, even if a change in control would be beneficial to our existing stockholders. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a change in our management or control over us that stockholders may consider favorable. For example, our board of directors has the right to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval that could be used to dilute a potential hostile acquirer. As a result, you may lose your ability to sell your stock for a price in excess of the prevailing market price due to these protective measures, and efforts by stockholders to change the direction or management of the company may be unsuccessful. In addition, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws will:

• provide that vacancies on our board of directors, including newly created directorships, may be filled only by a majority vote of directors then in office;

• provide that special meetings of stockholders may only be called by our Chairman and/or President, our board of directors or a super-majority (66 2/3%) of our stockholders;

• place restrictive requirements (including advance notification of stockholder nominations and proposals) on how special meetings of stockholders may be called by our stockholders;

• not provide stockholders with the ability to cumulate their votes; and

• provide that only a super-majority of our stockholders (66 2/3%) may amend our bylaws.

Failure to establish and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price.

We are not currently required to comply with the rules of the SEC implementing Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and therefore are not required to make a formal assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for that purpose. Upon becoming a publicly traded company, we will be required to comply with the SEC’s rules implementing Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which will require management to certify financial and other information in our quarterly and annual reports and provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of controls over financial reporting. Though we will be required to disclose changes made in our internal controls and procedures on a quarterly basis, we will not be required to make our first annual assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 until the year following our first annual report required to be filed with the SEC. Our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting until the later of the year following our first annual report required to be filed with the SEC or the date we are no longer an emerging growth company and are an accelerated or large accelerated filer.

To comply with the requirements of being a public company, we may need to undertake various actions, such as implementing new internal controls and procedures and hiring additional accounting or internal audit staff. In addition, we may identify material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the applicable deadline imposed upon us for compliance with the requirements of Section 404.

If we identify weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, are unable to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner or to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an opinion as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our common stock could be negatively affected, and we could become subject to investigations by the NASDAQ Capital Market on which our securities are listed, the SEC or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This prospectus contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, and that involve significant risks and uncertainties. We intend the forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor for forward-looking statements in these sections. Words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions, as well as statements in future tense, identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results and may not be accurate indications of when such performance or results will be achieved. Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to:

• difficulties executing our growth strategy and opening new restaurants that are profitable;

• ineffectively competing in our industry;

• difficulties maintaining increases in average restaurant revenue and same store restaurant sales;

• increases in food and supply costs or failure to receive frequent deliveries of food ingredients and other supplies;

• limited control over Remington Park operations and operations of licensed restaurants;

• negative publicity relating to one of our restaurants, including one of licensed restaurants;

• the impact of governmental laws and regulation;

• food safety and foodborne illness concerns;

• changes in economic conditions and adverse weather and other unforeseen conditions, especially in Oklahoma;

• new information or attitudes regarding diet and health;

• difficulties with certain vendors, suppliers and distributors we rely on or will rely on;

• failure to maintain our corporate culture as we grow and changes in consumer recognition of our brand;

• changes in senior management, loss of one or more key personnel or an inability to attract, hire, integrate and retain highly skilled personnel;

• labor shortages, unionization activities, labor disputes or increased labor costs, including increased labor costs resulting from minimum wage increases; and

• inadequately protecting our intellectual property or breaches of security of confidential consumer information.

The foregoing does not represent an exhaustive list of matters that may be covered by the forward-looking statements contained herein or risk factors that we are faced with. Forward-looking statements necessarily involve risks and uncertainties, and our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those set forth above under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. The factors set forth above under “Risk Factors” and other cautionary statements made in this prospectus should be read and understood as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this prospectus. The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus represent our judgment as of the date of this prospectus. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on such statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained above and throughout this prospectus.

Use of Proceeds

We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock we are offering will be approximately $13.2 million based on an assumed offering price of $8.00 per share (which represents the mid-point of the estimated range of the initial public offering price shown on the front cover of this prospectus). If the underwriters fully exercise the over-allotment option, the net proceeds of the shares we sell will be approximately $15.2 million. “Net proceeds” is what we expect to receive after deducting the underwriting discount and commission and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

Each $1.00 increase (decrease) in the assumed offering price of $8.00 would increase (decrease) the net proceeds to us from this offering by approximately $1.810 million, after deducting estimated underwriting discount and commission and estimated offering expenses payable by us, assuming that the number of shares offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same. Each increase of 100,000 shares in the number of shares offered by us at the assumed public offering price would increase the net proceeds to us in this offering by approximately $730,000. Similarly, each decrease of 100,000 shares in the number of shares offered by us at the assumed public offering price would decrease the net proceeds to us from this offering by approximately $730,000. A change in the offering price or the number of shares by these amounts could have a material effect on our uses of the proceeds from this offering, and it may impact the amount of time prior to which we will need to seek additional capital.

We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering primarily to acquire 71st Street (as described in more detail elsewhere in this prospectus), repay related party notes (see “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” for details regarding the specific related party indebtedness), repay a promissory note held by a non-affiliated individual (such promissory note matures on December 31, 2019 and bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum), invest in or acquire companies that are synergistic with or complementary to our business (including, potentially, our licensed restaurants — though we have no contractual right to acquire these restaurants and there has not been any negotiation pertaining to the acquisition of such restaurants) and for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

We anticipate an approximate allocation of the use of net proceeds as follows:

Use of Net Proceeds	$ (in millions)*	%
Acquisition of 71st Street	.85	7
Repayment of Related Party Indebtedness	2.11	16
Repayment of Promissory Note	.15	1
Acquisition of Synergistic Companies, Working Capital and General Corporate Purposes	9.89	76
Total	13.0	100

____________

* Assuming the over-allotment option is not exercised.

While we expect to use the net proceeds for the purposes described above, the amounts and timing of our actual expenditures, other than the acquisition of 71st Street, will depend upon numerous factors, including the aggregate amount raised in this offering. The expected net proceeds from the sale of the shares offered hereby, if added to our current cash and cash equivalents is anticipated to be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months. In the event that our plans change, our assumptions change or prove to be inaccurate, or the net proceeds of this offering are less than as set forth herein or otherwise prove to be insufficient, it may be necessary or advisable to reallocate proceeds or curtail expansion activities, or we may be required to seek additional financing or curtail our operations. As a result of the foregoing, our success will be affected by our discretion and judgment with respect to the application and allocation of the net proceeds of this offering.

Pending their use, we plan to invest the net proceeds from this offering in short- and intermediate-term, interest-bearing obligations, investment-grade instruments, certificates of deposit or direct or guaranteed obligations of the U.S. government.

Dividend Policy

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our equity interests and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends, if any, in the future is within the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our earnings, capital requirements and financial condition and other relevant facts. We currently intend to retain all future earnings, if any, to finance the development and growth of our business.

Corporate Conversion

Immediately prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, we will convert Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC from an Oklahoma limited liability company to a Delaware corporation pursuant to a statutory conversion and change its name to Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. As a result of the corporate conversion, all of the units of membership interest held by the existing members of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC will be converted into shares of common stock of Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. pursuant to a conversion ratio of 0.3125 shares of Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. common stock for each Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC unit of membership interest previously held. Accordingly, 10,000,000 Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC units of membership interest issued and outstanding immediately prior to the corporate conversion will be converted into 3,125,000 shares of Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. common stock.

In connection with the corporate conversion, Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. will continue to hold all property of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC and will assume all of the debts and obligations of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC. Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. will be governed by a certificate of incorporation filed with the Delaware Secretary of State and bylaws, the material portions of which are described in “Description of Capital Stock.” On the effective date of the corporate conversion, the persons appointed by the members of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC will become the members of the board of directors of Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. The purpose of the corporate conversion is to reorganize our corporate structure so that our company will continue as a corporation rather than a limited liability company following this offering, and so that our existing investors will own our common stock rather than equity interests in a limited liability company.

In order to consummate the corporate conversion, a Certificate of Conversion from a Limited Liability Company to a Corporation will be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and Articles of Conversion from a Limited Liability Company to a Corporation will be filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Oklahoma.

Concurrently with the corporate conversion, Praesidian Capital, our largest creditor, has agreed to convert $5 million in principal amount of indebtedness into shares of non-convertible Series A Preferred Stock to be designated concurrently with our corporate conversion. For more information regarding the Series A Preferred Stock, see “Description of Capital Stock” beginning on page 74. We have further agreed with Praesidian Capital that upon the mutual agreement of the Company and Praesidian Capital, Praesidian Capital may convert an additional $2 million in principal amount of indebtedness provided that such determination is made prior to our corporate conversion.

Capitalization

The following table sets forth our cash and equivalents and capitalization as of December 30, 2018:

(1) Undistributed losses of partnerships that are in actual financial statement in Members’ deficit are reclassified to additional paid in capital.

Cash, Common stock and Additional paid in capital are shown as increases as a result of estimated effect of common stock offering while the decreases in long term debt (including related parties) reflect payment of those liabilities from proceeds of offering and the decrease of deferred offering costs reflect those cost related to this offering capitalized until offering is completed.

The pro forma and pro forma as adjusted information is illustrative only and following the completion of this offering will be adjusted based on the actual initial public offering price and other terms of this offering determined at pricing and the actual amount of indebtedness converted by Praesidian Capital.

Dilution

If you purchase shares of our common stock in this offering, your interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the assumed public offering price of $8.00 per share (the mid-point of the range appearing on the front cover of this prospectus) and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our common stock immediately upon the consummation of this offering.

On a pro forma basis, after giving effect to our corporate conversion from a limited liability company to a corporation resulting in the conversion of 10,000,000 membership interests issued and outstanding immediately prior to the conversion into an aggregate of 3,125,000 shares of our common stock, the conversion of $5 million in principal amount of indebtedness by Praesidian Capital and our acquisition of 71st street (as described in more detail elsewhere in this prospectus), our net tangible book value as of December 30, 2018 was approximately $(4.95) million, or approximately $(1.58) per share. Net tangible book value per share represents our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the pro forma number of shares of common stock outstanding as of December 30, 2018.

Net tangible book value dilution per share to new investors represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers in this offering and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after completion of this offering. After giving effect to our sale of 1,875,000 shares of common stock in this offering at an assumed public offering price of $8.00 per share, and after deducting underwriters’ commissions and estimated offering expenses, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of December 30, 2018 would have been $7.72 million, or $1.54 per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $3.12 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $6.46 per share to purchasers of shares in this offering, as illustrated in the following table:

Assumed public offering price per share				$	8.00
Net tangible book value per share as of December 30, 2018, after giving effect to our corporate conversion and conversion of indebtedness	$	(1.58	)
Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to new investors	$	3.12
Adjusted net tangible book value per share as of December 30, 2018, after giving effect to the offering	$	1.54
Dilution per share to new investors in the offering				$	6.46

The above discussion and tables do not include 1,000,000 shares of our common stock (which is equal to 20% of our issued and outstanding common stock immediately after the consummation this offering) reserved for future issuance under our 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, which will become effective as of the closing of this offering (numbers presented on a post-conversion basis).

The above discussion and tables assume that our 10,000,000 membership interests currently outstanding are converted into 3,125,000 shares of common stock following the conversion of Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC into Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc.

If the underwriters exercise their option in full to purchase 281,250 additional shares of common stock in this offering at the assumed offering price of $8.00 per share of common stock, the pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering would be $1.85 per share, the increase in the pro forma net tangible book value per share to existing stockholders would be $3.43 per share and the dilution to new investors purchasing securities in this offering would be $6.15 per share.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the years ended December 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 should be read in conjunction with the “Summary Historical Consolidated Financial and Operating Data” and the consolidated financial statements and notes related thereto included elsewhere in this prospectus. The Company operates under a 52/53-week year ending on the last Sunday in December. The Company had 52 weeks in the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018 and 53 weeks in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.

Forward-looking statements in this prospectus reflect the good-faith judgment of our management and the statements are based on facts and factors as we currently know them. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and in “Risk Factors” as well as those discussed elsewhere in this prospectus. Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date of this prospectus. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this prospectus.

The following discussion is limited to our analysis of the results of operations for the nine restaurants by the Company and our Remington Park restaurant and does not take into account the results of operations of 71st Street (which we will purchase with the proceeds of the offering) or any of the other licensed restaurants. Accordingly, this discussion may not fully reflect forward-looking impacts from our management of the licensed restaurants. Any fees or profit participation due from the Company from the license agreements will not be consolidated into the Company’s financial statements because we hold no membership interest.

Overview

We are engaged in the business of developing, owning, operating and licensing brewpubs and full service casual dining restaurants under the trade names Bricktown Brewery and/or Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen. Additionally, we have a joint venture with Global Gaming RP LLC, owner of Remington Park Casino/Race Track, to manage a licensed Bricktown Brewery, a licensed Henry Hudsons and various other food and beverage outlets in the Remington Park Casino/Racetrack. As of December 30, 2018, we owned nine restaurants (having sold one restaurant in fiscal 2017). Four of our restaurants are located in Oklahoma, two are in Texas, two more are located in Kansas, and one is located in Arkansas. We also have licensed four restaurants (including 71st Street) to related parties, three are located in Oklahoma and one is located in Missouri (as discussed elsewhere in the prospectus, we do not currently generate any licensing fees or other revenue from the licensed restaurants, see “Business — Licensed Restaurants” for more details).

Our average customer transaction increased approximately 9.5% in the fiscal year ended 2018 compared to the fiscal year ended 2017. We are continuing to manage our marketing communications to balance growth in customer traffic and the average customer expenditure. Our sales trends are influenced by many factors and the macroeconomic environment remains challenging for smaller restaurant chains.

Growth Strategy and Outlook

As disclosed elsewhere in this prospectus, we are focused on the continued expansion of our business. We expect to pursue a growth strategy predicated upon (i) building or acquiring new Bricktown restaurants, (ii) growing same store restaurant sales and (iii) quickly and cost-effectively scaling our growth while leveraging our platform of outsourced services.

Giving effect to the proceeds of this offering, we believe that we will have sufficient opportunity to build or acquire new Bricktown restaurants. We intend to follow a disciplined strategy of securing promising locations in the secondary and tertiary markets in our existing five-state region to complement our stores in primary markets, while selectively expanding into new territories that meet our demographic, real estate and investment criteria (for example, a secondary market in Florida). However, we do expect to face challenges in building and acquiring these new restaurants. For example, our ability to successfully evaluate a new city, trade area and specific site for a new restaurant and to understand the competitive landscape of a new market and trade area will be critical in the successful opening of a new Bricktown restaurant. Additionally, our ability to identify, recruit and hire both salaried and hourly staff will impact our ability to expand as will changes in the legal environment, including increases to the minimum wage, could impact our ability to expand into certain areas. Further, we believe that there has been an oversaturation of casual dining restaurants in certain areas which could decrease the number of markets that we believe will be attractive to expand into. Even if we are able to build or acquire new

Bricktown restaurants, the new restaurants, and our company, will be subject to various risks, some of which, including factors impacting our customers, such as declining economic conditions, are entirely out of our control.

We will seek to grow same store restaurant sales by increasing guest frequency at our currently operating restaurants that are not at capacity, if any, and overall market share. Our strategy to grow same store sales is to consistently improve Bricktown’s “Guest Experience.” Specifically, we intend to improve our current performance by refreshing the interiors of certain units, modernizing digital and social marketing efforts, enabling more online ordering options and regularly introducing new Bricktown menu items and craft beers. However, we expect to face challenges in growing same store restaurant sales, some of which are outside of our control. For example, it will be difficult for us to predict the preferences of our current and future customers, in terms of everything from restaurant ambiance to food taste, to enhance their guest experience. Additionally, even if we are able to predict with some accuracy the preferences of our current and future customers, we will be subject to the availability of commodities and the rise and fall of commodity prices which could impact our ability to serve certain menu items and the pricing of such items. Further, we believe that there has been and will continue to be an industry trend of reduced customer traffic at casual dining establishments. We will also be subject to various risks including, but not limited to, economic events decreasing customer consumption power, food safety and food-borne illness incidents which may have an adverse effect on our business by not only reducing demand but also increasing operating costs and that any damage to our reputation could negate improvements that we have made to the guest experience.

We will seek to quickly and cost-effectively scale our growth while leveraging our platform of outsourced services by managing our general and administrative cost by outsourcing certain operations to service providers in accounting, finance, legal and human resources. Together, we expect these outsourced services provide us a platform we can use to quickly onboard new units and launch them in their markets. However, there are various risks involved in relying on these third-party providers to provide these services, including that we may lose access to their services.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth, for the years indicated, our Consolidated Statements of Operations expressed as percentages of total revenues. The fiscal years presented consist of 52 weeks for fiscal 2018 and 53 weeks for fiscal 2017. Percentages below may not reconcile due to rounding.

Net Revenues:

Net revenues (or net sales) for fiscal 2018 decreased $2,002,000 or (6.6%) to $28,105,000 from $30,107,000 in fiscal 2017. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to one store that had revenues of $1,295,000 in 2017 but had no sales for 2018 because it was sold in 2017. The additional decrease in sales of $707,000 (2.5%) from fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2017 is attributable to having one less week of sales in fiscal 2018 (leading to a decrease of approximately $463,000 in sales) and the fact that two of our stores were in their “honeymoon period” throughout fiscal 2017 but only a portion of fiscal 2018 resulting in higher customer volume during the fiscal 2017 compared to subsequent time periods and, accordingly, higher sales.

The changes in revenue are explained as follows:

	Fiscal 2018 ($)	Fiscal 2017 ($)	% Change
Total Restaurant Sales (10 and 11 Restaurants in 2018 and 2017, respectively)	28,105,000	30,107,000	(6.6	)%
Average Restaurant Sales (10 and 11 Restaurants in 2018 and 2017, respectively)	2,810,000	2,737,000	2.7	%
Current Company Restaurant Sales (10 Restaurants)	28,105,000	28,812,000	(2.5	)%
Sold Store Sales (1 Restaurant)	—	1,295,000	(100.0	)%

Average restaurant sales for company-owned restaurants (not including VIE operations) for fiscal 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

		Fiscal 2018			Fiscal 2017
Company operated		$	2,576,000		$	2,666,000

Company owned restaurants’ sales for fiscal 2018 ranged from a low of $1,683,000 to a high of $3,840,000.

Restaurant Operating Costs

Across all Company restaurants, restaurant operating costs (which refer to all of the costs associated with the operation of our restaurants, but do not include general and administrative costs) as a percent of restaurant sales were 89.2% for Fiscal 2018 compared to 90.3% for fiscal 2017. This was due primarily to matters discussed in the “Cost of Sales,” “Labor and benefits Costs,” “Occupancy and Other Operating Cost” and “Depreciation and Amortization Costs” sections below. The changes in restaurant-level costs from Fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 are explained as follows:

	Fiscal Year ended
Restaurant operating costs for the period ended December 31, 2017	$	27,177,000
Decrease in cost of sales		(968,000	)
Decrease in labor and benefits		(574,000	)
Decrease in occupancy and operating		(418,000	)
Decrease in depreciation and amortization		(162,000	)
Restaurant operating costs for the periods ended December 30, 2018	$	25,055,000

Costs of Sales

Cost of sales for fiscal 2018 decreased 10.8% or $968,000 to $7,965,000 (28.3% of restaurant sales) from $8,933,000 (29.7% of restaurant sales) in fiscal 2017. This decrease in the cost of sales is mainly due to a decrease of $2,002,000 of sales during the same time period, as discussed above. This decrease in cost of sales as a percent of restaurant sales is primarily due to higher menu pricing compared to the prior year. A decrease in the cost of sales of $384,000 was due to a store that sold during 2017 and did not operate in 2018.

Labor and Benefits Costs

For fiscal 2018, labor and benefits costs decreased 5.7% or $574,000 to $9,545,000 (34.0% of restaurant sales) from $10,119,000 (33.6% of restaurant sales) in fiscal 2017. $515,000 of the decrease of labor and benefits costs is due to the location that was sold in October 2017 and did not operate in 2018. Labor and benefits decreased $59,000 in 2018

from 2017 from same stores. The increase in labor and benefits costs as a percent of restaurant sales for fiscal 2018 was primarily the result of lower restaurant sales. Payroll costs are semi-variable in nature, meaning that they do not decrease proportionally to decreases in revenue, thus they increase as a percentage of restaurant sales when there is a decrease in restaurant sales.

Occupancy and Other Operating Costs

For fiscal 2018, occupancy and other costs decreased 6.0% or $418,000 to $6,518,000 (23.2% of restaurant sales) from $6,936,000 (23.0% of restaurant sales) in fiscal 2017. There was a decrease of $348,000 of occupancy and other costs related to the restaurant sold in fiscal 2017 that did not operate in 2018. The remaining decrease in occupancy and other costs was attributable to a decrease of $160,000 in advertising offset by a $95,000 increase in taxes and $18,000 increase in insurance.

Depreciation and Amortization Costs:

For fiscal 2018, depreciation and amortization costs decreased 13.6% or $162,000 to $1,027,000 (3.7% of total revenues) from $1,189,000 (4.0 % of total revenues) in fiscal 2017. Depreciation costs primarily decreased due to the restaurant that was sold in 2017 and which did not have associated depreciation expense in 2018.

General and Administrative Costs

General and administrative costs increased 27.6% or $584,000 from $2,117,000 (7.0% of total revenues) in fiscal 2017 to $2,701,000 (9.6% of total revenues) in fiscal 2018. The increase in general and administrative costs is primarily attributable to a $414,000 increase in accounting fees, $140,000 increase in labor cost, $59,000 in legal cost, and $23,000 increase in taxes which were offset by, among other things, a decrease of $26,000 of management fees relating to the restaurant sold in 2017. The increase in accounting costs is related to our public filing process initiated in 2018 and the increase in labor costs is related to our hiring a chief financial officer.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs decreased 26.8% or $160,000 from $598,000 in fiscal 2017 (2.0% of total revenues) to $438,000 (1.6% of total revenues) in fiscal 2018. The decrease in advertising costs for fiscal 2018 compared to fiscal 2017 is attributable to comparative review of advertising programs and cessation of the less effective programs.

Income from Operations

Income from operations was $267,000 in fiscal 2018 compared to income from operations of $144,000 in fiscal 2017. The change in income from operations in fiscal 2018 compared to fiscal 2017 was due primarily to matters discussed in the “Net Revenues” and “Restaurant Operating Costs” sections above, as revenues decreased $2,002,000 from fiscal 2018 to fiscal 2017 while total cost and expenses from operations decreased $2,122,000 during the same time frame.

Interest expense

For fiscal 2018, our interest expense increased $17,000 to $1,253,000 (4.5% of restaurant sales) from $1,236,000 (4.1% of restaurant sales) in fiscal 2017.

Loss on disposal of assets and impairments

For fiscal 2018, we recorded impairment expense of $82,000 (0.3% of restaurant sales) related to the acquisition of an offsite brewing facility that was recorded as a capital lease until December 30, 2018. On December 30, 2018 we purchased the brewing equipment utilized at the facility in exchange for a note payable to an individual for $268,000. At the time of the exchange, we had $148,056 recorded as a capital lease obligation. The difference between the recorded balance of the capital lease and the note payable, after adjusting the assets to fair value, was recognized as loss on disposal of assets and impairment totaling $82,269. For fiscal 2017, we recorded impairment expense of $649,000 (2.2% of restaurant sales) related to the reduction in the carrying value of leasehold improvements for the underperforming Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen restaurant located in El Paso, Texas.

Net Loss

The net loss was $884,000 for fiscal 2018, compared to $998,000 in fiscal 2017. The change from fiscal 2017 to fiscal 2018 was primarily attributable to the matters discussed in the “Net Revenues,” “Restaurant Operating Costs,” “General and Administrative Costs,” and “Loss on disposal of assets and impairments” sections above due to the matters discussed above.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest represents the other partner’s share of net income in each of EBGG and BT Concepts Edmond LLC (“BTE”), the two variable interest entities consolidated into our financial statements. On October 21, 2017, we and our partner sold one hundred percent of BTE’s membership interest. Accordingly, financial results of BTE were consolidated through October 21, 2017 and were no longer consolidated after the sale. For fiscal 2018, only EBGG was consolidated into our financial statements. The net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $379,000 compared to $352,000 in fiscal 2017. See “Variable Interest Entities” on page 49.

Restaurant-level EBITDA:

To supplement the consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, the Company uses restaurant-level EBITDA, which is not a measure defined by GAAP. This non-GAAP operating measure is useful to both management and, we believe, to investors because it represents one means of gauging the overall profitability of our recurring and controllable core restaurant operations. This measure is not, however, indicative of our overall results, nor does restaurant-level profit accrue directly to the benefit of stockholders, primarily due to the exclusion of corporate-level expenses. Restaurant-level EBITDA should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, operating income loss, which is calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the reconciliations to operating income set forth below should be carefully evaluated.

We define restaurant-level EBITDA as operating income before pre-opening costs, general and administrative costs, depreciation and amortization and impairment charges. Pre-opening costs are excluded because they vary in timing and magnitude and are not related to the health of ongoing operations. General and administrative costs are excluded as they are generally not specifically identifiable to restaurant specific costs. Depreciation and amortization and impairment charges are excluded because they are not ongoing controllable cash expenses, and they are not related to the health of ongoing operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and Working Capital

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash from operations, cash and cash equivalents on hand and cash from debt financings (as described below). As of December 30, 2018, we had $1,075,000 of cash and cash equivalents ($435,000 as of December 31, 2017) and during fiscal 2018, we raised an aggregate of $560,000 from debt financings and have an aggregate of $12,469,000 in debt outstanding. Our primary requirements for liquidity are to fund our working capital needs, operating lease obligations, capital expenditures, and general corporate needs, as well as to invest in or acquire companies that are synergistic with or complementary to our business (including, potentially, our licensed restaurants — though we have no contractual right to acquire these restaurants and there has not been any negotiation pertaining to the acquisition of such restaurants). On August 30, 2018 the Company signed a purchase and sale agreement to purchase 100% of the equity ownership of BT Concepts 71st Street LLC from Tulsa Brewing Company LLC, contingent on successful completion of the public offering by the Company. Our operations have not required significant working capital and, like many restaurant companies, we generally operate with negative working capital. We anticipate that working capital deficits may be incurred in the future and possibly increase if and when we open new Bricktown Brewery and Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen restaurants.

Our restaurant sales are primarily received in cash or by credit card and our restaurant operations do not require significant inventories or receivables. In addition, we receive trade credit for the purchase of food, beverages and supplies, therefore reducing the need for incremental working capital to support growth. As of December 30, 2018, we had a working capital deficit of $1,839,000. Based on current information, we believe that we will have sufficient capital to meet our long-term debt obligations, working capital and recurring capital expenditure needs in fiscal 2019; however, our projections of future cash needs and cash flows may differ from actual results. If current cash on hand, cash equivalents and cash that may be generated from our business operations are insufficient to continue to operate our business, we may be required to obtain more working capital. We may seek to obtain additional working capital following this offering and our corporate conversion through the extension or renewal of the related party indebtedness (of which there was $11,435,477 outstanding as of December 30, 2018, of which, $856,217 has a maturity of December 31, 2019 and $10,579,260 has a maturity date of June 30, 2020), sales of our equity securities or through bank credit facilities or public or private debt from various financial institutions where possible. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. The working capital deficit and debt outstanding could cause substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as going concern, but our plans and the commitment of our primary lenders to ensure the Company can meet its working capital needs through 2019 alleviate this doubt. If we do identify sources for additional funding, the sale of additional equity securities or convertible debt could result in dilution to our shareholders. Additionally, the sale of equity securities or issuance of debt securities may be subject to certain security holder approvals or may result in the downward adjustment of the exercise or conversion price of our outstanding securities. We can give no assurance that we will generate sufficient cash flows in the future to satisfy our liquidity requirements or sustain future operations, or that other sources of funding, such as sales of equity or debt, would be available or would be approved by our security holders, if needed, on favorable terms or at all. If we fail to obtain additional working capital as and when needed, such failure could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, such lack of funds may inhibit our ability to respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated capital needs, or may force us to reduce operating expenses, which would significantly harm the business and development of operations.

All tangible and intangible assets of the Company have been pledged as collateral to the lenders of the various promissory notes above. Rights of the various lenders are defined by seniority and creditor agreements. The Company is subject to various restrictions and covenants in connection with its indebtedness, including, but not limited to, limitations on annual unfinanced capital expenditures of $300,000 in any fiscal year, and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.00:1.00 for each consecutive four fiscal quarters beginning with quarter ended March 2016. The Company is subject to a financial covenant pursuant to which it must maintain minimum consolidated EBITDA. For covenant purposes EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-recurring cost and expenses, as determined by lenders. The Company is in compliance with its financial covenants as of December 30, 2018.

The interest rate for the Senior Promissory Notes payable to Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III, LP and Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III-A, LP is at a fixed rate of 10.50%. The related party notes payable are at a fixed rate of 10%. The promissory note due to a commercial bank is at a fixed interest rate of 4.75%. The interest rates on the notes to individuals are fixed interest rates ranging from of 6% to 10%.

As disclosed elsewhere in this prospectus, Praesidian Capital Opportunity Fund III and Praesidian Capital Opportunity III-A agreed to convert concurrently with the corporate conversion $5 million in principal amount of indebtedness into shares of non-convertible Series A Preferred Stock to be designated concurrently with our corporate conversion. We have further agreed with Praesidian Capital that upon the mutual agreement of the Company and Praesidian Capital, Praesidian Capital may convert an additional $2 million in principal amount of indebtedness provided that such determination is made prior to our corporate conversion.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the statement of cash flows for the fifty-two weeks ended December 30, 2018 and fifty-three weeks ended December 31, 2017, respectively:

	Fiscal Year
	2018			2017
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	504,000		$	931,000
Net cash used in investing activities		(232,000	)		(575,000	)
Net cash provided by (used in) by financing activities		368,000			(37,000	)
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents		640,000			319,000
Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of period		435,000			116,000
Cash and cash equivalents, end of period	$	1,075,000		$	435,000

Net cash provided by operating activities was $504,000 for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2018 compared to $931,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease was the result of an increase in the value of operating assets during 2018 compared to 2017 which is related primarily to increase in accounts receivable, inventory, pre-paid expenses and deferred offering cost.

Net cash used in investing activities in fiscal 2018 was $232,000 compared to $575,000 in fiscal 2017. Cash used in investing activities in fiscal 2018 is comprised of payments made by us for miscellaneous restaurant related capital expenditures. Cash used in investing activities in fiscal 2017 is comprised of payments of $246,000 for miscellaneous restaurant related capital expenditures, $437,000 for the exterior reimaging of two Company Restaurants and the facilities at Remington Park and $69,000 for new equipment for the two reimaged restaurants, offset by the receipt of $177,000 in tenant allowance.

Net cash provided by financing activities in fiscal 2018 was $368,000 compared to net cash used in financing activities of $37,000 in fiscal 2017. The difference between fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017 is primarily due to the Company not receiving any distributions from noncontrolling interests in 2018 compared to distributions of $421,000 in 2017.

Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We remain contingently liable on various land leases underlying restaurants that are owned by licensed restaurants. We have never experienced any losses related to these contingent lease liabilities; however, if a licensed restaurant defaults on the payments under the leases, we would be liable for certain lease payments as the guarantor of the lease. Currently we have not been notified nor are we aware of any leases in default under which we are contingently liable. However, there can be no assurance that there will not be defaults in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our future operating results (see the section “Business — Licensed Restaurants” for more details).

New Store Openings

Quarterly results have been and will continue to be significantly impacted by the timing of new restaurant openings and their associated restaurant opening expenses. As a result, our financial results for any given quarter may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full fiscal year.

Honeymoon Period

Our restaurants have generally experienced a period of higher than normal sales volume during the first 24 months of operations (we refer to this period throughout the prospectus as the “honeymoon” period) after which sales volumes decrease and then stabilize. We believe that there are a number of factors underlying this trend, including that our restaurants receive higher customer volume during the honeymoon period due to the newness and novelty of the restaurant and our increased promotional efforts and spending, including in some instances on additional staff. We believe that after 24 months of operations, sales at our restaurants generally decrease and then stabilize because the restaurants becomes well established in their geographic location and are no longer able to attract customers as a result of their newness and novelty. Additionally, cost efficiencies normalize at our restaurants at this point to a more stable long term pattern.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The material weaknesses we identified, and the steps we are taking to address these control issues, are as follows:

In prior periods, we did not have proper processes and controls in place over the Company’s financial closing procedures which included not reconciling balance sheet accounts timely to ensure that expenses were recorded in the correct accounting period. While we have implemented controls and processes we believe address this matter, they have not been in place for a sufficient period of time to determine that the material weakness has been remediated as of December 30, 2018.

We did not maintain adequate policies and processes for the review and approval of journal entries. We plan to update our current policies and implement procedures and controls over the review and approval of journal entries by the appropriate personnel in fiscal 2019.

We did not timely identify and evaluate certain technical accounting and financial reporting matters. We plan on adding additional accounting personnel, with the appropriate skills, knowledge and experience to ensure timely identification and evaluation of technical accounting matters and financial reporting processes in fiscal 2019.

We, and our independent registered public accounting firm, were not required to perform an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we have identified all, or that we will not in the future have additional, material weaknesses. Material weaknesses may still exist when we report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as required by reporting requirements under Section 404 after the completion of this offering. See “Risk factors — We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.”

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We follow accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, commonly referred to as the “FASB.” The FASB sets generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that we follow to ensure we consistently report our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. Over the years, the FASB and other designated GAAP-setting bodies, have issued standards in the form of FASB Statements, Interpretations, FASB Staff Positions, EITF consensuses, AICPA Statements of Position, etc.

The FASB recognized the complexity of its standard-setting process and embarked on a revised process in 2004 that culminated in the release on July 1, 2009, of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™, sometimes referred to as the Codification or ASC. To the Company, this means instead of following the Statements, Interpretations, Staff Positions, etc., we will follow the guidance in Topics as defined in the ASC. The Codification does not change how the Company accounts for its transactions or the nature of related disclosures made. However, when referring to guidance issued by the FASB, the Company refers to topics in the ASC rather than Statements, etc. The above change was made effective by the FASB for periods ended on or after September 15, 2009. We have updated references to GAAP in this prospectus to reflect the guidance in the Codification.

Sale of Restaurant Location

The Company analyzes its operations on a regional basis when evaluating closed restaurant operations for consideration as to the classification between continuing operations and discontinued operations. During fiscal 2017, the Company sold one restaurant in Edmond, Oklahoma which was owned 50% by the Company. The operations related to this restaurant are reflected as part of continuing operations as they were within one continuing operating region.

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests are presented as a separate item in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet. Consolidated net income or loss attributable to noncontrolling interests are presented on the face of the consolidated statement of operations. Additionally, changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions, and that deconsolidation of a subsidiary is recorded as a gain or loss based on the fair value on the deconsolidation date.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We assess the potential impairment of our long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. The assets are generally reviewed for impairment in total, as well as on a restaurant by restaurant basis. Factors considered include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance by the restaurant relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and significant negative industry or economic trends. The recoverability is assessed in most cases by comparing the carrying value of the asset to the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. This assessment process requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding future restaurant cash flows and estimated useful lives, which are subject to a significant degree of judgment. If these assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record impairment charges for these assets.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under the liability method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value. The deferred tax assets are reviewed periodically for recoverability, and valuation allowances are adjusted as necessary. We believe it is more likely than not that the recorded deferred tax assets will be realized.

The Company is a limited liability company treated as a partnership and files a Form 1065. Substantially, all federal, state and local income taxes are passed on to the members via Schedule K-1 (which will change upon conversion into a corporation and consummation of this offering). The Company has a minimal amount of franchise tax due to the State of Texas generally each year.

The Company is subject to taxation in various jurisdictions. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. No accrual for interest and penalties was considered necessary as of December 30, 2018.

Variable Interest Entities

Once an entity is determined to be a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”), the party with the controlling financial interest, the primary beneficiary, is required to consolidate it. As of December 30, 2018, the Company owned 50% of EBGG, a variable interest entity, and accordingly transactions consummated by EBGG are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements. EBGG was evaluated to determine which party was the primary beneficiary. The Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary of EBGG. EBGG operates substantially all of the food and beverage at Remington Park Casino/Racetrack in Oklahoma City. The Company manages EBGG, was determined to be the primary beneficiary and is deemed to control it.

For the periods beginning December 25, 2016 through October 21, 2017, the Company owned 50% of BTE, a VIE, and was deemed to be the primary beneficiary. Accordingly transactions consummated by BTE are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements. BTE owned and operated the Company’s Bricktown Brewery Edmond restaurant. The Company managed and was deemed to control BTE. In October 2017, the Company and its partner sold 100% of BTE’s membership interest. Accordingly, financial results for BTE were no longer consolidated after the sale.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue with Contracts from Customers (Topic 606).” ASU 2014-09 supersedes the current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity

expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017; however, as an emerging growth company, the Company has elected to defer adopting the guidance, as allowed, until the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018.

The Company’s revenue is comprised of food and beverage sales. ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have an impact on revenue recognition related to food and beverage sales. However, it requires gift card breakage to be recognized as revenue proportionate to the pattern of gift card redemptions. We have determined that breakage is immaterial. Consequently, no amounts for breakage have been recorded in the financial statements.

The Company is still evaluating the adoption; however, it does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” This update requires a lessee to recognize on the balance sheet the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with a lease term of more than twelve months. This update also requires additional disclosures about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption for lessees existing at or entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. As an emerging growth company, the Company is afforded additional time to adopt this standard and anticipates adopting the standard the fiscal year beginning December 30, 2019.

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842) - Targeted Improvements,” which provides another transition method that allows entities to apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. This transition method option is in addition to the existing transition method of using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements.

While the Company is still evaluating the guidance and the impact on its consolidated financial statements, we expect the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as we will recognize the right-of-use assets and liabilities for current operating leases, but will likely have an insignificant impact on the consolidated statement of operations or cash flows and overall liquidity. In preparation for the adoption of the guidance, the Company will implement controls and key systems changes to enable the preparation of financial information.

Impact of Inflation

In fiscal 2018, our weighted food and packaging costs decreased as compared to fiscal 2017. The total menu price increases taken during 2018 were 1.3%, all of which were taken in April and December of 2018. We anticipate cost pressure on several core commodities, including beef, bacon and dairy for fiscal 2019. However, we anticipate our food and packaging costs as a percentage of sales will remain consistent with fiscal 2018 from a combination of price increases, product mix changes and recipe modifications. We are planning moderate price increases in fiscal 2019 which may or may not be enough to recover increased commodity costs or increase in other operating expenses.

BUSINESS

Unless the context otherwise requires, references contained in this prospectus to the “Company,” “Bricktown,” “we,” “us,” “our” or similar terminology refer, prior to the corporate conversion discussed herein, to Bricktown Brewery Restaurants LLC, and after the corporate conversion to Bricktown Restaurant Group, Inc. Further, unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “Company Restaurants” or the restaurants currently owned by the Company includes the nine restaurants currently owned by the Company and the restaurant that we have licensed out to BT Concepts 71st Street LLC which we will acquire upon consummation of this offering. Lastly, references to our Remington Park restaurant and location refer to the company in which we have a 50% ownership stake that manages and operates various food and beverage outlets, including a licensed Bricktown Brewery restaurant at Remington Park, an Oklahoma City racetrack and casino. The financial results of our Remington Park restaurant are consolidated into our financial statements.

Overview

The original Bricktown Brewery restaurant first opened in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in 1992 “serving local beer and great food with truly friendly service.” Subsequently, we have expanded within Oklahoma and into Kansas, Texas and Arkansas, with additional licensed restaurants in Oklahoma and Missouri. We currently own and operate ten restaurants, including a restaurant to be acquired with the proceeds of this offering. In addition to the Company Restaurants, we have licensed the right to open and operate three additional restaurants which we manage. These three licensed restaurants are owned by related parties and are not a part of the Company, although we expect to generate cash from these licensed properties in the future as described below. We also own 50% of a company that manages and operates various food and beverage outlets, including a licensed Bricktown Brewery restaurant at Remington Park, an Oklahoma City racetrack and casino.

History and Locations

The first Bricktown Brewery was opened as a brewpub in the brick-streets of the Oklahoma City district known as Bricktown in September 1992 by a local restaurateur and local investors. In 2008, Bricktown Brewery was sold to BT Concepts LLC (“BT Concepts”), which was then owned by a group of investors headed by Jim Burke and Brad Grow, and which now is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bricktown. In 2011, WG Buck Warfield joined our management team, joined the next year by Mike Beighey, and by 2012 had begun growing our restaurant brand with specific emphasis

on our on-premise brewery and hand-crafted ales and our food offerings and friendly service. In 2012, we licensed a second Bricktown Brewery restaurant in the Remington Park Casino/Race Track, which is owned by Global Gaming RP LLC, a subsidiary of the Chickasaw Nation, as part of our Remington Park operations. We co-own the management company for this location with Global Gaming RP LLC on a 50-50 basis and receive 50% of the profit and loss for the Remington Park Bricktown Brewery and all other food and beverage outlets under company management (see the subsection below entitled “Remington Park Operations” for more information). Over the next six years, Matt Thomas and Eric Grow joined the Company and we opened eight more restaurants, with restaurants in Shawnee, Oklahoma (1), Owasso, Oklahoma (1); Tulsa, Oklahoma (1); Fort Smith, Arkansas (1), El Paso, Texas (1); Wichita Falls, Texas (1); and Wichita, Kansas (2). A tenth restaurant, which was co-owned with a third party, was operated for four years in Edmond, Oklahoma, but the joint ownership did not fit our strategy so the location was sold to a related party and is no longer operated as a Bricktown Brewery. The sale of this Edmond, Oklahoma location coincided with the Company entering into a license agreement with a related party to open a new Bricktown Brewery restaurant location in Edmond, Oklahoma (in a location that we believe is more desirable than the prior location). During 2017 and 2018, we licensed to certain related parties the opportunity to open and operate four Bricktown Brewery restaurants — one of which we will acquire on consummation of this offering, and three that we do not have the right to acquire, two in Oklahoma and one in Missouri. We manage or will manage each of the latter three licensed restaurant locations, although we do not have any ownership interest in them. See the section entitled “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” for more information regarding our licensing activities with related parties.

Remington Park Operations

We, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, manage three restaurants and bars owned by and located in the Remington Park Casino/Race Track in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma through a joint venture (the “Remington Joint Venture) with Global Gaming RP LLC, a subsidiary of the Chickasaw Nation, pursuant to a management agreement between the Remington Joint Venture and Remington Park Casino/Race Track. Pursuant to the terms of the management agreement, the Remington Joint Venture manages and conducts the business of selling food and beverages for, and provides and bears the costs of employees and sanitation for a licensed Bricktown Brewery restaurant, a licensed Henry Hudsons Pub, a pizza restaurant and the casino bar, all of which are a part of the Remington Park Casino/Race Track facilities. In consideration for its management services, the Remington Joint Venture is paid a fee equal to the net income from sales of food and beverages realized by Remington Park Casino/Race at the four establishments managed by the Remington Joint Venture. The current term of the management agreement is through August 2020, but will automatically be extended until August 2025 unless terminated by us no less than 180 days prior to expiration. The management agreement may also be terminated by either party with 90 days’ written notice following a material breach by the non-terminating party that remains uncured for 30 days. Our wholly-owned subsidiary owns 50% of the Remington Joint Venture, although 100% of the profits and losses of the Remington Joint Venture are recorded on our financial statements. For more information regarding the impact of the Remington Joint Venture on our financial statements, please see the footnotes to our financial statements included herein. In connection with the joint venture, we have licensed to the Remington Joint Venture the right to use the “Bricktown Brewery®” name at the casino, for which we do not receive any additional fee as long as we are a co-owner of the Remington Joint Venture.

Licensed Restaurants

Beginning in 2016, we began pursuing a strategy of licensing to related parties the right to open new Bricktown Brewery restaurants. The purpose of this strategy is to expand our brand without incurring the significant costs and financial risk associated with opening and operating new restaurant locations. Excluding the licensed restaurant we co-manage at Remington Park, there are currently four licensed Bricktown Brewery Restaurants operating, including BT Concepts 71st Street.

• BT Concepts 71st Street LLC. In November 2016, BT Concepts 71st Street LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company owned by related parties (including our President and Chief Executive Officer), opened the Bricktown Brewery “71st Street” restaurant in Tulsa, Oklahoma as a licensed restaurant pursuant to an intellectual property license from us. The terms of the license do not require a royalty to be paid to the company, but instead gives us the right to acquire the 71st Street restaurant. In 2018, we exercised our option to acquire the 71st Street restaurant and have entered into an agreement to acquire all the equity of BT Concepts 71st Street LLC for $850,000 upon consummation of this offering. We have been managing 71st Street since its opening and are very familiar with its operations and financial performance. Upon the consummation of this offering, BT Concepts 71st Street LLC will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Bricktown.

• Brewco Newco LLC. We have entered into three intellectual property license agreements with subsidiaries of Brewco Newco LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company owned by Brad Grow and Jim Burke, affiliates of the Company. Pursuant to these license agreements, Brewco Newco LLC has converted three restaurants originally opened under a different brand name and with a different concept into Bricktown Brewery restaurants. Specifically, Brewco Newco opened a Bricktown Brewery in Edmond, Oklahoma during the first quarter of 2018, in Midwest City, Oklahoma during the second quarter of 2018, and in Springfield, Missouri on September 4, 2018. The Company has guaranteed payment of the real estate leases at Edmond and Midwest City. Should the Edmond restaurant default on its lease, our guarantee would require us to pay up to (a) two years of future base rent which could range between $247,200 to $271,920, (b) two years of tax reimbursement and insurance costs, which annually are approximately $18,000 and $24,000 respectively, and (c) the unamortized portion of a $260,000 tenant allowance as recouped over five years. Should the Midwest City restaurant default on its lease, our guarantee would require us to pay future base rent of up to $344,850 through the end of the current term which expires December 31, 2021, plus annual tax and insurance reimbursements of approximately $21,000 and $27,000 respectively. Pursuant to the terms of each license agreement, we will be paid a licensing fee equal to 20% of (a) earnings before depreciation and amortization for the specific licensed restaurant; (b) less debt service (payment of interest and principal) for all debt incurred by the specific licensed restaurant since its inception amortized over five years; and (c) less all capital expenditures made by Brewco Newco LLC of any kind since the inception of the specific licensed restaurant, including pre-opening. Calculation of the licensing fee will be done after each monthly accounting period on a cumulative basis, meaning that if a monthly calculation of the licensing fee produces a negative number, that negative balance is carried forward to the following accounting period until a positive balance is achieved. No licensing fees will be earned until after Bricktown has repaid any money advanced by the licensee or its affiliates to Bricktown, though we expect that such advanced money will be repaid with the proceeds of this offering (see the section entitled “Use of Proceeds”).

We manage the operations of all of our licensed restaurants pursuant to licensee management agreements. Under the terms of the licensee management agreements the company leases employees to each licensed location and provides management oversight at each locations. We are reimbursed for our costs but do not charge a fee for these services.

Concepts and Brand

Bricktown Brewery versus Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen

Each of our restaurants (including our licensed restaurants) operates under one of two concepts: Bricktown Brewery or Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen. Our Bricktown Brewery concept is featured in all of our restaurants located in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas and Missouri while our Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen concept is used in Texas. Bricktown Brewery locations serve our lineup of craft ales and lagers which have been brewed in one of our two brewing facilities, along with other local beers and national brands of beers and spirits. Our Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen restaurants differ from our Bricktown Brewery locations because they do not serve our brewed beers and only feature local beers in addition to national brands of beers and spirits due to Texas state laws which currently prohibit us from importing our brewed beer into Texas or selling beer brewed for us under Bricktown trademarks. Both concepts are full-service casual-dining restaurant and both execute on our three core brand pillars of “local beer, great food and truly friendly service.”

Restaurant Locations; Our Restaurants

Our ten Company Restaurants range in size from 4,000 square feet to over 19,500 square feet because of our opportunistic development model that first seeks-out closed restaurants for conversion into a Bricktown Brewery or Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen location. Our ideal footprint is a 5,000 to 5,500 square foot building that has been vacated by a closed national chain restaurant. We call this our “Hermit Crab” development philosophy since like the crab of the same name, we move into a “shell” vacated by a former owner. So far, implementation of this strategy has translated into a company average net conversion cost (with all associated costs including capitalized equipment, leasehold improvements less tenant allowance received and including any pre-opening costs expensed) of $850,000 per restaurant (for restaurants opened since 2012). The average current year restaurant-level EBITDA for those stores opened after 2012 is $344,000. The company average “cash-on-cash return” of these same stores is 40%. “Cash-on-cash return” is defined as the current year restaurant-level EBITDA for our company-operated

stores open for at least two full years as of December 30, 2018 (which is includes all of our restaurants opened since 2012), divided by their original construction costs (including equipment, lease hold improvements, less any tenant allowance received, including any pre-opening costs) — the small number of stores included in our calculation of our average cash-on-cash return may cause this measure to fluctuate and be subject to change. While we focus on second generation space, we also look for “end cap space” (the end of a shopping center building that has at least two walls with windows) in lifestyle centers (shopping centers which lease a combination of retail, office, entertainment and residential space) or power centers (unenclosed shopping centers of 250,000 to 600,000 square feet with three or more major “big box” retailers and shared parking). Since our brand objective is to be the “anti-chain” chain we are not bound by the need to design everything the same. Restaurant layouts change from restaurant to restaurant but always have similar trade dress and a visual connection to brewing and craft beer (though we believe that the prominence of this décor is not so dominant as to be a turn off for families with young children). We also fit each of our restaurant locations with extensive audio-visual packages as an additional differentiator within the casual dining segment.

We believe that the restaurants have a high energy yet family friendly environment. Strong visual cues to brewing and craft beer are further accentuated by what we believe is a truly friendly and informal service style. We believe that our concepts, restaurant locations and décor, and menu place our restaurants at the top end of the traditional casual dining sector but below the “polished casual” box concepts.

Our Menu

The menu in each of our restaurants consists of items created using chef designed recipes with quality ingredients that we believe have broad consumer appeal yet are distinctive within the casual dining segment. The menu is comprised of signature crafted burgers, salads, sandwiches, entrees and artisanal styled pizzas. Several times per year new items are introduced that are Bricktown’s twisted take on American comfort food which we market as Bricktwisted® Comfort Food. House made dressings, sauces, chili, hand pattied Creekstone Black Angus burgers, proprietary seasoning blends, fresh chicken, bison and several big plate options coupled with Bricktown’s wide selection of craft beers all serve to differentiate Bricktown Brewery within the casual dining segment.

Brewing

The original Bricktown Brewery brewing operations in downtown Oklahoma City are owned by BT Concepts with a brewing capacity of 2,520 barrels per year. The original Bricktown has a working brewery with the brewing tanks visible by patrons in the restaurant through glass partitions. Bricktown’s award-winning brewing team produces six core ales that are meant to be on tap in all Bricktown Brewery locations always. Every six to eight weeks, the brewers create limited release ales or lagers that are small batch seasonal beers.

In October 2015, we acquired BTB Brewing Company LLC (“BTB Brewing”) which owns a brewing facility located in south Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, formerly known as Huebert Brewing Co., with a capacity of 2,880 barrels per year to expand our brewing capabilities. In December 2018, BTB Brewing purchased the assets of Oklahoma Brewing Company LLC which consisted of the brewing equipment leased to BTB Brewing at its brewing facility. We have contracted with a wholesale distribution company to distribute our beers to other Oklahoma restaurants and retail outlets.

BTB Brewing currently makes several types of craft sodas on a contract basis for various Oklahoma vendors using their proprietary recipes. In the second quarter of 2018, BTB Brewing introduced its first non-alcoholic craft root beer named “Attaboy” Root Beer. The product was conceived and produced by our brewing team, then bottled and distributed to our restaurants. It is our intent to test the craft soda market through distribution to our restaurants under the name “Bricktown Attaboy.”

Business Strategy

1. Build or acquire new Bricktown restaurants. As mentioned above, we intend to follow a disciplined strategy of securing strong locations in the secondary and tertiary markets in our existing five-state region to complement our stores in the primary markets, while judiciously expanding into new territories that meet our demographic, real estate and investment criteria (for example, a secondary market in Florida).

2. Grow Same Store Restaurant Sales. We will seek to increase guest frequency at our currently operating restaurants that are not at capacity, if any, and overall market share by consistently improving Bricktown’s “Guest Experience.” We intend to improve our performance by refreshing the interiors of certain units, modernizing digital and social marketing efforts, enabling more online ordering options and regularly introducing new Bricktown menu items and craft beers.

Giving effect to the proceeds of this offering, we believe that we will have sufficient opportunity to build or acquire new Bricktown restaurants. We intend to follow a disciplined strategy of securing promising locations in the secondary and tertiary markets in our existing five-state region to complement our stores in primary markets, while selectively expanding into new territories that meet our demographic, real estate and investment criteria (for example, a secondary market in Florida). However, we do expect to face challenges in building and acquiring these new restaurants. For example, our ability to successfully evaluate a new city, trade area and specific site for a new restaurant and to understand the competitive landscape of a new market and trade area will be critical in the successful opening of a new Bricktown restaurant. Additionally, our ability to identify, recruit and hire both salaried and hourly staff will impact our ability to expand as will changes in the legal environment, including increases to the minimum wage, could impact our ability to expand into certain areas. Further, we believe that there has been an oversaturation of casual dining restaurants in various areas which could decrease the number of markets that we believe will be attractive to expand into. Even if we are able to build or acquire new Bricktown restaurants, the new restaurants, and our company, will be subject to various risks, some of which, including factors impacting our customers, such as declining economic conditions, are entirely out of our control.

We will seek to grow same store restaurant sales by increasing guest frequency in our currently operating restaurants that are not at capacity, if any, and increasing overall market share. Our strategy to grow sales is to consistently improve Bricktown’s “Guest Experience.” Specifically, we intend to improve our current performance by refreshing the interiors of certain units, modernizing digital and social marketing efforts, enabling more online ordering options and regularly introducing new Bricktown menu items and craft beers. However, we expect to face challenges in growing same store restaurant sales, some of which are outside of our control. For example, it will be difficult for us to predict the preferences of our current and future customers, in terms of everything from restaurant ambiance to food taste, to enhance their guest experience. Additionally, even if we are able to predict with some accuracy the preferences of our current and future customers, we will be subject to the availability of commodities and the rise and fall of commodity prices which could impact our ability to serve certain menu items and the pricing of such items. Further, we believe that there has been and will continue to be an industry trend of reduced customer traffic at casual dining establishments. We will also be subject to various risks including, but not limited to, economic events decreasing customer consumption power, food safety and food-borne illness incidents which may have an adverse effect on our business by not only reducing demand but also increasing operating costs and that any damage to our reputation could negate improvements that we have made to the guest experience.

Expansion Strategy and Site Selection

Our development of company-owned Bricktown Brewery restaurants will focus on secondary and tertiary metropolitan statistical areas with population density of 1.2 million or less in business-friendly states in the United States that we do not believe have overly restrictive alcohol laws, prohibitive minimum wage laws or unfavorable cost of construction issues. In our industry, we closely examine retail trade areas (the geographic area from which a store will draw customers which is limited by the longest drive those customers are willing to make). Our targeted retail trade areas for new restaurant development have a high concentration of traffic generators (daytime population, colleges/universities, hospitals, hotels, interstate highways, event centers) and retail support from nearby “big box” and national tenants.

Demographic criteria in a 10-mile radius for specific sites will vary between minimum populations of 80,000 people in suburban, regional trade areas and maximum populations of 750,000 in urban core areas with median household incomes over $55,000. We expect to seek sites with excellent visibility and access to high-traffic vehicle corridors. We believe the Bricktown Brewery concept has the “legs” to expand into growing markets all across the nation, but specifically in the Midwest and Southeastern portions of the United States.

Almost all of the existing Bricktown Brewery locations are retrofits of former restaurant and retail space. Bricktown has successfully converted stand-alone Applebee’s, Ted’s Montana Grill, Ruby Tuesday’s, Old Chicago’s, local sports bars, 100-year-old warehouses, and mall retail spaces of 4,000-6,500 square feet. In-line and end-cap lease opportunities in new and existing shopping centers also allow for easy Bricktown conversions. Because existing properties don’t require extensive site development and entitlement processes, retrofit sites can be developed more quickly than sites with a traditional ground lease. Typically, only a building permit, signage approvals, and a liquor license are needed to ensure than Bricktown Brewery can open 90 to 120 days from the time a building permit is issued.

Marketing & Advertising

The foundation of Bricktown marketing focuses on interacting with our guests to deliver enjoyable and memorable experiences. Our primary driver of brand awareness is word-of-mouth advocacy from our existing guests, coupled with social media programs. Loyal guests become brand ambassadors as they share their Bricktown experiences with friends and family. These experiences generate a loyal fan base who promotes our brand through word-of-mouth which encourages new customers to try us out and existing customers to visit us more often, while generally increasing the Bricktown brand awareness.

The evolution of our menu via “Bricktwisted®” Comfort Foods, to keep menu offerings fresh, while continuing to focus on signature menu items and the addition of locally brewed craft beer offerings throughout the year, contributes to increasing frequency of guest visits.

In our social media outreach, we connect with our guests and potential guests primarily via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. Recognizing the impact of social media on today’s consumers, we use these platforms to share information with our guests about new Bricktwisted® Comfort Foods menu items, new craft beer tapping events and new Bricktown restaurant openings.

We focus on local store marketing in each trade area and combine social media with public relations, community engagement and out-of-home advertising in select markets to build awareness in the markets in which we operate. Although we may use limited local radio spots, we do not typically use television or broad radio coverage as we have found those media to provide less results for the money expended compared to our other marketing.

Operations

Restaurant Operations and Management; Culinary Operations

All day to day macro level operational decisions across each of our Company Restaurants, including brewing, menu development, recruiting, hiring, training and attention to financial results, flow through either our Chief Operating Officer, with ultimate operating accountability resting with the Chief Operating Officer. Reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer or our Vice President of Operations is the Area Manager or General Manager of each Company Restaurant. The management team at each Company Restaurant is responsible for the day to day activities within their discrete restaurant. Each of our Company Restaurants have a management complement of a Senior General Manager or General Manager, a Kitchen Manager, and between one and three service managers, one of which may be an Assistant General Manager. Additionally, each store has fully trained hourly supervisors.

Our culinary operations (including strategic menu direction and recipe development) are handled at the corporate and not at the individual restaurant level. At least one culinarian has been involved with all recipe development on our menu and all new items must be approved by our senior management team. Once a recipe is approved by senior management, the recipe is entered into both our Chefpad recipe management system and CTUIT costing module which provide instructions on how to create the new menu item, pictures of the new menu item and, where necessary, training videos to show the restaurant management team how to prepare the new menu item. Importantly, we believe this technology enables us to provide our guests with a menu driven by chef created food without the need to employ trained culinarians at the restaurant. We further believe that this technology allows us to seamlessly introduce a new menu item and allows us flexibility in adapting our menu to customer tastes as needed.

Operational Systems and Processes

We believe that we have high level operating systems and processes relative to other companies of our size and in our segment. Our outsourced back office service, Abacus Systems Solutions LLC (“Abacus”), provides us with a full scope of support services that give us real time business intelligence and allows us to systematically control cost and expenses. Our kitchen management system uses a CTUIT based sales mix analysis based upon both actual historical and current trends to daily determine food preparation and ordering. Inventory levels are managed using the CTUIT back office automated order preparation function and coupled with orders placed through Ben E. Keith, our broad line supplier, for next day delivery.

Using an IPAD based system called OPSANALYITICA, management does pre-meal walkthroughs of the kitchen checking food handling safety, recipe adherence and food quality. Results of these line checks are sent by text to the senior operators in real time. A weekly summary is sent out each Monday morning. We utilize the CTUIT back office scheduling function to both schedule our hourly employees by hours and dollars and to be able to compare scheduled hours versus actual hours worked. The CTUIT dashboard provides all level of management visibility to labor cost and performance. Additionally, the CTUIT system provides both senior and restaurant level management full visibility on everything from labor controls, net sales, labor dollars, check counts, comps, promos, voids, average hourly wage, wage by department, sales mix, inventory levels and even capital maintenance investment by restaurant.

Training

We strive to maintain quality and consistency in each restaurant that we operate; whether it be a licensed restaurant that we manage or a restaurant that we own, through careful training and supervision of our employees at all levels and the establishment of, and adherence to, high standards relating to personnel performance, food and beverage preparation and maintenance of our restaurants. Each manager must complete a five to eight week training program which we call the “Bricktown Academy,” dependent on transferable skills assessments, to be certified on company culture, standards, standard operating procedures and several core processes. They are then closely supervised to show both comprehension and capability before they are allowed to manage autonomously. All management and supervisors as well as front of the house service employees must complete the Bricktown Academy series of tests meant to validate and certify their on the job training experience.

Recruiting and Retention

We seek to hire experienced restaurant managers at all levels. We support employees by offering competitive wages and benefits. We motivate and prepare our employees by providing them with opportunities for increased responsibilities and advancement. We also provide various other incentives, including vacations, car allowances, monthly performance bonuses and monetary rewards for managers who develop future managers for our restaurants. We have implemented an online screening and hiring tool to reduce hourly employee turnover.

Employees

As of December 30, 2018 we had approximately 845 employees of which 781 were hourly employees and 64 were salaried employees. This number includes 187 hourly and 13 salaried employees that we provide to the licensed restaurants (excluding 71st Street) for which we are reimbursed and 72 hourly and 3 salaried employees we provide to Remington Park for which we are reimbursed for our portion of the costs. Employment per restaurant location averages 56 hourly and 4 to 5 salaried employees, and we have 5 salaried and 2 hourly corporate employees.

Government Regulation

Each of our restaurants is subject to the regulations of various health, sanitation, safety and fire agencies in the jurisdiction in which the restaurant is located. Our breweries are subject to Federal laws on brewing and alcohol bottling and distribution and as of October 1, 2018, we became licensed by the state of Oklahoma. Difficulties or failures in obtaining the required licenses or approvals could delay or prevent the opening of a new restaurant. Federal and state environmental regulations have not had a material effect on our operations. More stringent and varied requirements of local governmental bodies with respect to zoning, land use and environmental factors could delay or prevent development of new restaurants in particular locations. We are subject to the Fair Labor Standards Act, which governs such matters as minimum wages, overtime, and other working conditions. In addition, we are subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act, which requires restaurants and other facilities open to the public to provide for access and use of facilities by the handicapped. Management believes that we are in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.

In addition, each Bricktown Brewery restaurant requires a liquor license and adherence to the attendant laws and requirements regulating the serving and consumption of alcohol. Alcoholic beverage control regulations govern various aspects of these restaurants’ daily operations, including the minimum age of patrons and employees, hours of operation, advertising, wholesale purchasing and inventory control, handling and storage. Typically, licenses to sell alcoholic beverages will require annual renewal and may be suspended or revoked at any time for cause, the definition of which varies by locality.

While our liquor licenses are held by our subsidiaries, we will be required to make certain filings in each of the States in which we operate in connection with our corporate conversion and the initial public offering. The following is a summary of the steps that we will be required to take in each of the States in which we hold a liquor license:

In Oklahoma, our restaurants each hold Oklahoma Mixed Beverage Licenses. In addition, two of our subsidiaries hold hold Oklahoma Small Brewer Licenses and one of those subsidiaries holds an Oklahoma Brewpub License. Following this offering, we will be required to file with ABLE within 30 days following the closing of this offering a notice filing for each license disclosing the changes to our officers and directors and providing information relating to any stockholders that after the offering holder over 15% of our Company.

In Arkansas, our restaurant holds an Arkansas State Liquor license. The Arkansas Alcoholic Beverage Commission does not require any notice filing in connection with the offering and statutory conversion, but we will send the Arkansas Alcoholic Beverage Commission a letter informing them of the new officers and directors of the Company.

In Kansas, our two restaurants hold Kansas Liquor licenses. The regulatory authorities in Kansas do not require any filings in connection with the offering and corporate conversion, but we will need to report changes in our ownership (reporting the identity of any new stockholders holding more than 5% of our Company) and changes to our officers and directors in connection with our next annual license renewal. Our next annual renewals for our Kansas restaurants are in June 2019 and February 2020. We will need to make a similar city filing in Wichita when we seek our annual renewal.

In Texas, our two restaurants hold Texas Liquor licenses. In connection with the corporate conversion and offering, we will need to file a report regarding changes in ownership of the Company (reporting the identity of any new stockholders holding more than 5% of our Company) and changes to our officers and directors.

Lastly, two of our subsidiaries hold Federal brewers permits issued by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau under the U. S. Department of the Treasury (“TTB”). We will need to file changes in ownership (reporting the identity of any new stockholders holding more than 10% of our Company) and changes to our officers and directors with the TTB.

Intellectual Property

BT Concepts LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Bricktown, is the owner listed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the trademarks and service marks of the Company. Included in those marks are service marks for Bricktown Brewery® (with a first usage date in 1992) and Bricktown® describing any bar and restaurant services; trademarks for a number of proprietary beers such as 46 Star Oklahoma Amber Ale®, Bluesberry Ale®, Remington Red Ale®, Single-String Stout®, and Wiley’s One-Eyed Wheat®; and trademark for a hamburger as well as a service marks for a food truck service, each named Truckburger®. Each of the licensed restaurants is licensed to use these service marks and trademarks. We have applied with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the service mark, Bricktwisted® Comfort Food.

Competition

The restaurant industry, including the casual dining subset segment is highly competitive. Bricktown Brewery and Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen compete with a large number of other varied menu restaurants in the areas in which we operate. We face significant competition from restaurants in the full service casual dining, brewpub, and fast casual dining segments of the restaurant industry. These segments are highly competitive with respect to, among other things, taste, price, food quality and presentation, beer selection, brewed beers service, location, and the ambience and condition of each restaurant. Our competition includes a variety of locally-owned restaurants and national and regional chains offering dine-in, carry-out, delivery, and catering services. Among our competitors are a number of multi-unit, multi-market, casual dining and brewpub restaurant concepts, some of which are expanding nationally. As

we expand, we will face competition from these restaurant concepts as well as new competitors that strive to compete with our market segments. These competitors may have, among other things, lower operating costs, better locations, better facilities, better management, more effective marketing, and more efficient operations. Many of the restaurants with which Bricktown Brewery and Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen compete are owned and operated by regional and national chains, many of which have greater resources and experiences than we do. Restaurant companies that currently compete with Bricktown in our markets include Chili’s, Applebee’s, TGIF, Buffalo Wild Wings and other regional, national and local restaurant groups. Among younger customers, we also face competition from “meal-kit” companies such as Blue Apron or Hello Fresh, that sell “prepare at home” meals.

We believe that Bricktown Brewery and Bricktown Tap House & Kitchen has an advantage in our proprietary beers, hand crafted quality of our food and the unusual mix of food items, quality, quantity and price.

Legal Proceedings

As of May 10, 2019, we were not a party to any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business.

Director Independence and Committees of the Board of Directors

Director Independence

Of our prospective directors, we have determined that Messrs. Dobbin, Dillingham, Boatright and Motenko are “independent” directors under the NASDAQ listing standards, while Messrs. Warfield, Grow, Harrison and Burke are not independent under such standards. Accordingly, following consummation of this offering, our Board will not be comprised of a majority of independent directors, however, in accordance with NASDAQ Rule 5615(b)(1), we intend to appoint an additional independent director within one year following the completion of this offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we have determined that each of the three prospective members of the Audit Committee is “independent” for purposes of Section 10A(m)(3) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder and under the NASDAQ listing standards. Further, the Board has determined that each of the three prospective members of both the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is “independent” under the NASDAQ listing standards.

Board Committees

Effective upon consummation of the corporate conversion and establishment of the Board of Directors, we will have three standing committees of the Board: the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Audit Committee
