Note 1 - Merger:

On October 16, 2013, The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. (the “Company”) closed a merger transaction (the “Merger”) with The ONE Group, LLC, a privately held Delaware limited liability company (“One Group”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 16, 2013 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Committed Capital Acquisition Corporation, CCAC Acquisition Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Committed Capital Acquisition Corporation (“Merger Sub”), One Group and Samuel Goldfinger as One Group Representative. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, One Group became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Committed Capital Acquisition Corporation through a merger of Merger Sub with and into One Group, and the former members of One Group received shares of Committed Capital Acquisition Corporation that constituted a majority of the outstanding shares of Committed Capital Acquisition Corporation.

At the closing of the Merger, the Company issued to the former holders of One Group membership interests (the “TOG Members”) and to a liquidating trust (the “Liquidating Trust”) established for the benefit of TOG Members and holders of warrants to acquire membership interests of One Group (“TOG Warrant Owners”) an aggregate of 12,631,400 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and paid to such TOG Members an aggregate of $11,750,000 in cash (collectively, the “Merger Consideration”). As part of the Merger Consideration, the Company issued to Jonathan Segal, the former Managing Member of One Group and currently our Chief Executive Officer and a Director, 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock as a control premium. The foregoing shares are in addition to the 7,680,666 shares issued to Mr. Segal and related entities in respect of his pro rata portion of shares of Common Stock issued to all TOG Members. Of the 12,631,400 shares of Common Stock issued as part of the Merger Consideration, 2,000,000 shares (the “Escrow Shares”) were deposited into an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) at Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) to secure certain potential adjustments to the Merger Consideration as described below and certain potential indemnification obligations.

In addition, the Merger Agreement provided for up to an additional $14,100,000 of payments to the TOG Members and the Liquidating Trust based on a formula as described in the Merger Agreement and which is contingent upon the exercise of outstanding Company warrants to purchase 5,750,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share (the “Parent Warrants”). The Company is required to make these payments on a monthly basis. Additionally, certain One Group employees are entitled to receive a contingent sign-on bonus of an aggregate of approximately $900,000 upon the exercise of the Parent Warrants. Any Parent Warrants that are unexercised will expire on the date that is the earlier of (i) February 27, 2016 or (ii) the forty-fifth (45th) day following the date that the Company’s Common Stock closes at or above $6.25 per share for 20 out of 30 trading days commencing on February 27, 2014.

The Common Stock portion of the Merger Consideration is subject to adjustment to reflect working capital shortfalls and excess liabilities compared to the amounts that were set forth in a closing statement delivered by One Group within 90 days following the Closing of the Merger. Working capital shortfalls did not exceed by $100,000 the ordinary working capital and therefore no payment was required. Adjustment liabilities exceeded excess liabilities by $12,721 greater than $20,000 in the aggregate, which caused the TOG Members and the Liquidating Trust, on a pro rated basis, to be liable to the Company for an amount equal to the sum of any excess liabilities and working capital shortfall which equaled $32,721. The payment required to be made with respect to the foregoing was made by a reduction of the Escrow Shares.

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse-merger and recapitalization in accordance with GAAP, whereby the Company is the accounting acquiree and One Group is the accounting acquirer. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the operations that are reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the Merger are those of One Group, and the consolidated financial statements after completion of the Merger include the assets and liabilities of the Company and One Group, historical operations of One Group and operations of the Company from the effective date of the Merger. Membership interests and the corresponding capital amounts of One Group pre-Merger have been retroactively restated as shares of common stock reflecting the 8.09 to one exchange ratio in the Merger. All references in this Report to equity securities and all equity-related historical financial measurements, including weighted average shares outstanding, earnings per share, par value of Common Stock, additional paid in capital, option exercise prices and warrant exercise prices, have been retroactively restated to reflect the Merger exchange ratio.

On June 5, 2014, the Company changed its corporate name from Committed Capital Acquisition Corporation to The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc.

Net Income Per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is based upon the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if common stock equivalent securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

There are no reconciling items which impact the numerator of basic and diluted net income per common share. A reconciliation between the denominator of basic and diluted net income per common share is as follows:

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2014		2013		2014		2013

Weighted-average common shares outstanding		24,940,195		11,631,400		24,943,394		11,631,400
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options		31,955		-		86,562		-
Weighted-average common shares and potential common shares outstanding		24,972,150		11,631,400		25,029,957		11,631,400

100,000 stock options for both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and 100,000 stock options for both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were not included in the net income per diluted share calculation because the exercise price of these options was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during these periods or their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Fair value measurements

The carrying amount of the Company’s accounts receivable, short-term debt, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short term nature of the financial instruments

Unaudited interim financial information:

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014 or for any other interim period or other future year. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 included in the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 1, 2014.

Note 3 – Recent accounting pronouncements:

In July 2013, the FASB issued amendments to FASB ASC Topic 740 "Income Taxes." The amendments provide further guidance to the balance sheet presentation of unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss or similar tax loss carryforwards, or tax credit carryforwards exist. The amendments became effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company has reviewed the implications of this amendment and it does not have a material impact on the consolidated results of operations or on the financial position.

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU 2014-08”). ASU 2014-08 limits the requirement to report discontinued operations to disposals of components of an entity that represent strategic shifts that have (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial result. The amendments also require expanded disclosures concerning discontinued operations and disclosures of certain financial results attributable to a disposal of a significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The amendments in this ASU are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. The impact on the Company’s Financial Statements of adopting ASU 2014-08 is currently being assessed by management.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606). ASU 2014-09 addresses the reporting of revenue by most entities and will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. This update is effective in fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is not permitted. The impact on our financial statements of adopting ASU 2014-09 is currently being assessed by management.

Note 8 - Nonconsolidated variable interest entities:

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America provide a framework for identifying variable interest entities (VIEs) and determining when a company should include the assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests, and results of activities of a VIE in its consolidated financial statements. In general, a VIE is a corporation, partnership, limited-liability corporation, trust, or any other legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets that (1) has an insufficient amount of equity to carry out its principal activities without additional subordinated financial support, (2) has a group of equity owners that are unable to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact its economic performance, or (3) has a group of equity owners that do not have the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or the right to receive returns of the entity. A VIE should be consolidated if a party with an ownership, contractual, or other financial interest in the VIE that is considered a variable interest (a variable interest holder) has the power to direct the VIE’s most significant activities and the obligation to absorb losses or right to receive benefits of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. A variable interest holder that consolidates the VIE is called the primary beneficiary. Upon consolidation, the primary beneficiary generally must initially record all of the VIE’s assets, liabilities, and noncontrolling interests at fair value and subsequently account for the VIE as if it were consolidated based on majority voting interest. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company held investments that were evaluated against the criteria for consolidation and determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of the investments because the Company lacks the power to direct the activities of the variable interest entities that most significantly impacts their economic performance. Therefore, consolidation in the Company’s financial statements is not required. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company held the following investments:

	At June 30,		At December 31,
	2014		2013

Bagatelle NY LA Investors, LLC ("Bagatelle Investors")	$	625,026	$	840,614
Bagatelle Little West 12th , LLC ( "Bagatelle NY")		1,344,375		1,192,363
Bagatelle La Cienega, LLC ("Bagatelle LA")		-		-
Totals	$	1,969,401	$	2,032,977

Bagatelle Investors is a holding company that has interests in two operating restaurant companies, Bagatelle NY and Bagatelle LA. All three entities were formed in 2011. The Company holds interests in all three entities. See Note 9 for condensed financial information related to these entities.

During the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company provided no explicit or implicit financial or other support to these VIEs that were not previously contractually required.

The amounts presented above represent maximum exposure to loss.

Note 11 – Derivative liability:

On October 16, 2013, the Merger provided for up to an additional $14,100,000 of payments to the TOG Members and the Liquidating Trust based on a formula as described in the Merger Agreement and which is contingent upon the exercise of outstanding Company warrants to purchase 5,750,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share (the “Parent Warrants”). The Company is required to make any payments on a monthly basis. Additionally, certain One Group employees are entitled to receive a contingent sign-on bonus of an aggregate of approximately $900,000 upon the exercise of the Parent Warrants. Any Parent Warrants that are unexercised will expire on the date that is the earlier of (i) February 27, 2016 or (ii) the forty-fifth (45th) day following the date that the Company’s common stock closes at or above $6.25 per share for 20 out of 30 trading days commencing on February 27, 2014.

The Company estimates the fair value of the derivative liability using the Monte Carlo method, which is comprised of the $14,100,000 in payments and the $900,000 in contingent sign-on bonus for a total of $15,000,000. The fair value of the derivative liability is initially measured on October 16, 2013 and is re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value over the period reported in the statement of operations as a derivative income. In applying the Monte Carlo method, the Company uses the following key inputs and assumptions; the stock price on the valuation date, the exercise price of the warrants of $5.00, the trigger price of $6.25, the expected volatility which is based on an analysis of comparable companies historical stock price volatilities for a period comparable to the term of the warrants, the expected months until effective registration statement, the term based on the period from the valuation date until the two-year period following the expected date of the effective registration, the risk-free rate based on the rate of US treasury securities with the same term and the discount rate based on the aggregate of the expected short-term margin and the risk-free rate.

The following tables summarize the components of derivative liabilities:

	June 30,			December 31,
	2014			2013

Fair value of derivative liability	$	7,308,000		$	10,095,000

Significant assumptions (or ranges):
Trading market values (1)	$	5.00		$	5.75
Term (years) (2)		1.66			2.08
Expected volatility (1)		36.4	%		41.4	%
Risk-free rate (2)		0.35	%		0.38	%
Discount rate (3)		1.21	%		1.24	%
Effective Exercise price (2)	$	5.00		$	5.00
Trigger price (2)	$	6.25		$	6.25
Expected months until effective registration (3)		0			2

Fair value hierarchy:

(1)

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, or derived therefrom.

(2)

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable.

(3)

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs. Inputs for which any parts are level 3 inputs are classified as level 3 in their entirety.

The Company recorded $2,784,711 of income on the adjustment of the derivative liability balance for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Note 14 - Litigation:

The Company is party to claims in lawsuits incidental to its business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate outcome of such matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 15 - Stockholders’ equity:

The Company is authorized by its amended and restated certificate of incorporation to issue up to 75,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were 24,940,195 and 24,946,739, respectively, outstanding shares of Common Stock and no outstanding shares of preferred stock.

Note 16 - Stock-based compensation:

In October 2013, the board of directors approved the 2013 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) pursuant to which the Company may issue options, warrants, restricted stock or other stock-based awards to directors, officers, key employees and other key individuals performing services for the Company. The 2013 Plan has reserved 4,773,992 shares of common stock for issuance. All awards will be approved by the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors to be established for such purpose.

The Company’s outstanding stock options have maximum contractual terms of up to ten years, principally vest on a quarterly basis ratably over five years and were granted at exercise prices equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The Company’s outstanding stock options are exercisable into shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock awards, based on the fair value of the award at the date of grant in accordance with the modified prospective method. The Company uses the Black-Scholes model for purposes of determining the fair value of stock options granted and recognizes compensation costs ratably over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures. For restricted stock awards, the grant-date fair value is the quoted market price of the stock.

In February 2014, the Company granted options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share. Of these options, 50% vest over time and 50% will vest based on the achievement of targeted annual milestones which have been set by the board of directors.

In June 2014, the Company granted options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.85 per share. These options will vest over five years.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized $95,177 and $167,368 of non-cash stock-based compensation expense, respectively, in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

As of June 30, 2014, there was approximately $4,250,021 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation grants, which is expected to be amortized over a weighted-average period of 4.9 years.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

	Three months ended
	June 30, 2014
Expected life (in years)		6.5
Risk-free interest rate		1.41	%
Volatility		32	%
Dividend yield		0	%

					Weighted
			Weighted		Average
			Average		Remaining
			Exercise		Contractual		Intrinsic
	Shares		Price		Life (Years)		Value

Outstanding at December 31, 2013		766,578	$	5.00

Overview

We are a hospitality company that develops and operates upscale, high-energy restaurants and lounges and provides turn-key food and beverage services for hospitality venues including boutique hotels, casinos and other high-end locations in the United States and the United Kingdom. As of June 30, 2014, we owned and operated 8 and managed 8 restaurants and lounges throughout the United States and London. Our primary restaurant brand is STK, a steakhouse concept that features a high-energy, fun environment that encourages social interaction. We currently operate seven STK restaurants in major metropolitan cities in the United States and London, including our most recent STK which opened in April 2014 in Washington, D.C. We currently expect to open one additional STK in Miami during the fourth quarter of 2014. On February 10, 2014, we entered into a lease agreement with Walt Disney Parks and Resorts U.S., Inc. with respect to the opening of an STK restaurant in Orlando, Florida, which is expected to open in 2015. On June 9, 2014 we entered into a lease agreement to open an STK in Chicago, Illinois in 2015. In addition, on June 19, 2014 we entered into a management agreement to operate the food and beverage services at a hotel in Milan, Italy in 2015. On August 13, 2014 we announced that we are opening our first STK Rebel in a hotel in Miami, Florida in 2015. The average unit volume, check and beverage mix for STK restaurants that have been open a full twelve months at June 30, 2014 were $11.4 million, $124 and 41%, respectively.

In addition to operating stand-alone restaurants, we also operate turn-key food and beverage services at high-end boutique hotels and casinos, which, in some cases, include upscale restaurants, such as STK. Our diversified portfolio of differentiated, high-energy food and beverage hospitality solutions provides landlords and owners a choice of having one or several of our concepts and/or services in their venues. These locations are operated under our management agreements under which we earn a management fee based on revenue and an incentive fee based on profitability of the underlying operations. We typically target food and beverage hospitality opportunities where we believe we can generate $500,000 to $750,000 of annual pre-tax income exclusive of any related STK revenues or profits. We also own or manage a small number of other standalone restaurants and lounges.

Net income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $2,104,000 and $(688,000), respectively, and included a loss from discontinued operations of $1,271,000 and $3,359,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Net income (loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were $3,145,000 and $(534,000), respectively, and included a loss from discontinued operations of $346,000 and $1,466,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The loss from discontinued operations reflects our exiting of non-strategic and underperforming units during these periods and includes the closing of the Tenjune concept in February 2014 and the closing of the Bagatelle unit in Las Vegas during 2013 as well as the termination of the management agreement with The Palms Hotel in Las Vegas for the Heraea concept and the termination of the lease with The Palms Hotel in Las Vegas for the Xishi concept. In addition, we closed a kiosk in New York City which featured burgers and shakes in 2013. In addition, the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 included non-cash derivative income of $2,833,000 and $2,785,000, respectively, from an adjustment of our derivative liability balance.

Our Growth Strategies and Outlook

Our growth model is comprised of the following four primary drivers:

Expansion of STK. We have identified over 50 additional major metropolitan markets globally where we could grow our STK brand over time. We expect to open as many as two to three STKs annually in the next three years and to target approximately 25% annual unit growth thereafter provided that we have enough capital, acceptable locations and quality restaurant managers available to support that pace of growth. We believe that the completion of the Merger enables us to opportunistically invest more of our own capital in projects in order to capture a greater proportion of the economic returns. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to open new STKs at the rate we currently expect or that our pipeline of planned offerings will be fully realized.

Expansion Through New Food & Beverage Hospitality Projects. We believe we are well positioned to leverage the strength of our brands and the relationships we have developed with global hospitality providers to drive the continued growth of our food and beverage hospitality projects, which traditionally have provided fee income with minimal capital expenditures. We continue to receive significant inbound inquiries regarding new services in new hospitality opportunities globally and to work with existing hospitality clients to identify and develop additional opportunities in their venues. Going forward, we expect to target at least one new food and beverage hospitality project every 12 to 18 months. However, we cannot control the timing and number of acceptable opportunities that will be offered to us for our consideration.

Expand Our Non-STK Concepts and Services. We believe our existing restaurant concepts and food and beverage hospitality services have significant room to grow and that our presence, brand recognition and operating performance from our continuing operations provide us with the ability to expand these concepts in the North American and international markets, with near term focus on Europe and in the longer term, Asia and the Middle East.

Increase Our Operating Efficiency. In addition to expanding into new cities and hospitality venues, we intend to increase revenue and profits in our existing operations, and we believe that, following the Merger, we have more capital and resources available to allocate towards operational initiatives. We expect to grow same store sales by approximately 1% annually as a result of our renewed focus on this aspect of our growth plan. We also expect operating margin improvements as our restaurants and services mature. However, there can be no assurances that any increases in same store sales or operating margins will be achieved. Furthermore, as our footprint continues to increase in scale, we expect to benefit by leveraging system-wide operating efficiencies and best practices.

Key Performance Indicators

We use the following key performance indicators in evaluating our restaurants and assessing our business:

Number of Restaurant Openings. Number of restaurant openings reflects the number of restaurants opened during a particular fiscal period. For each restaurant opening, we incur pre-opening costs, which are defined below. Typically, new restaurants open with an initial start-up period of higher than normalized sales volumes (also referred to in the restaurant industry as the “honeymoon” period), which decrease to a steady level approximately 18 months after opening. However, operating costs during this initial 18 month period are also higher than normal, resulting in restaurant operating margins that are generally lower during the start-up period of operation and increase to a steady level approximately 18 months after opening. Some new restaurants may experience a “honeymoon” period either shorter or longer than 18 months.

Average Check. Average check is calculated by dividing total restaurant sales by total entrees sold for a given time period. Our management team uses this indicator to analyze trends in customers’ preferences, effectiveness of menu changes and price increases, and per customer expenditures.

Average Comparable Unit Volume. Average comparable unit volume consists of the average sales of our comparable restaurants over a certain period of time. This measure is calculated by dividing total comparable restaurant sales in a given period by the total number of comparable restaurants in that period. This indicator assists management in measuring changes in customer traffic, pricing and development of our brand.

Comparable Unit Sales. We consider a unit to be comparable, whether owned or managed, in the first full quarter following the 18th month of operations to remove the impact of new unit openings in comparing the operations of existing units. Changes in comparable unit sales reflect changes in sales for the comparable group of units over a specified period of time. Changes in comparable sales reflect changes in customer count trends as well as changes in average check, which reflects both menu mix shifts and menu pricing. Our comparable unit base consisted of five units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. We believe that certain of our restaurants operate at or near their effective productive capacities. As a result, we may be unable to grow comparable restaurant sales at those restaurants.

Key Financial Terms and Metrics

We evaluate our business using a variety of key financial measures:

Revenues

Owned unit net revenues. Owned unit net revenues, which includes STKs and certain other brands, consists of food, beverage, and miscellaneous merchandise sales by company-owned units net of any discounts, such as management and employee meals, associated with each sale. In 2013, beverage sales comprised 42% of owned food and beverage sales, before giving effect to any discounts, with food comprising the remaining 58%. This indicator assists management in understanding the trends in gross margins of the units.

Management and incentive fee revenue. Management and incentive fee revenue includes: (1) management fees received pursuant to management agreements with hospitality clients that are calculated based on a fixed percentage of revenues; and (2) incentive fees based on operating profitability, as defined by each agreement. We evaluate the performance of our managed properties based on sales growth, which drives our management fee, and on improvements in operating profitability margins, which along with sales growth, drives incentive fee growth.

Our primary restaurant brand is STK and we specifically look at comparable revenues from both owned and managed STKs in order to understand customer count trends and changes in average check as it relates to our primary restaurant brand.

Cost and expenses

Food and beverage costs. Food and beverage costs include all unit-level food and beverage costs of company-owned units. We measure cost of goods as a percentage of owned unit net revenues. Food and beverage costs are generally influenced by the cost of food and beverage items, menu mix and discounting activity. Purchases of beef represent approximately 30% of our current food and beverage costs.

Unit operating expenses. We measure unit operating expenses for company-owned units as a percentage of owned unit net revenues. Unit operating expenses include the following:

Payroll and related expenses. Payroll and related expenses consists of manager salaries, hourly staff payroll and other payroll-related items, including taxes and fringe benefits. We measure our labor cost efficiency by tracking total labor costs as a percentage of food and beverage revenues.

Occupancy. Occupancy comprises all occupancy costs, consisting of both fixed and variable portions of rent, deferred rent expense, which is a non-cash adjustment included in our Adjusted EBITDA calculation as defined below, common area maintenance charges, real estate property taxes, utilities and other related occupancy costs and is measured by tracking occupancy as a percentage of revenues.

Direct operating expenses. Direct operating expenses consists of supplies, such as paper, small wares, china, silverware and glassware, cleaning supplies and laundry and linen costs and typically tracks revenues.

Outside services. Outside services includes music and entertainment costs, such as the use of live DJs, promoter costs, security services and commissions paid to event staff for banquet sales.

Repairs and maintenance. Repairs and maintenance consists of facility and computer maintenance contracts as well as general repair work to maintain the facilities. These costs will typically increase as the facility gets older.

Marketing. Marketing includes the cost of goods used specifically for complimentary purposes as well as general public relation costs related to the specific unit, but excluding any discounts such as management and employee meals. Marketing costs will typically be higher during the first eighteen months of a unit’s operations.

General and administrative, net. General and administrative expenses are comprised of all corporate overhead expenses, including payroll and related benefits, professional fees, such as legal and accounting fees, insurance and travel expenses. Certain general and administrative expenses are allocated specifically to units and are credited and include shared services such as reservations, events and marketing. General and administrative expenses are expected to grow as we grow, including legal, accounting and other professional fees incurred as a public company.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization consists principally of charges related to the depreciation of fixed assets including leasehold improvements, equipment and furniture and fixtures. As we accelerate our restaurant openings, depreciation and amortization is expected to increase as a result of our increased capital expenditures.

Management and royalty fees. In certain of our units, we pay outside third parties a management fee based on a percentage of sales or a fixed fee. Historically, a majority of management fees related to one property, Tenjune, and related to the use of an outside management company to operate this lounge concept. This management agreement was terminated in February 2013. Royalty fees are paid to the 50% owner of the trademark rights to the name “Asellina” and “Cucina Asellina”.

Pre-opening expenses. Pre-opening expenses consist of costs incurred prior to opening an owned or managed unit which are comprised principally of manager salaries and relocation costs, employee payroll and related training costs for new employees and lease costs incurred prior to opening. We expect these costs to increase as we accelerate our company-owned restaurant openings, which may have a material impact on our operating results in future periods. Preopening expenses vary from location to location depending on a number of factors, including the proximity of our existing restaurants; the amount of rent expensed during the construction and in-restaurant training periods; the size and physical layout of each location; the number of management and hourly employees required to operate each restaurant; the relative difficulty of the restaurant staffing process; the cost of travel and lodging for different metropolitan areas; the timing of the restaurant opening; and the extent of unexpected delays, if any, in obtaining necessary licenses and permits to open the restaurant.

Provision for income taxes . The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Equity in (income) loss of subsidiaries. This represents the income or loss that we record under the equity method for entities that are not consolidated. Included in this amount is our ownership in Bagatelle New York for which we have effective ownership of approximately 51% representing 5.23% ownership directly by us and 45.90% ownership through two of our subsidiaries.

Adjustments for noncontrolling interest. This represents the allocation of net income or loss attributable to the minority interest in those of our subsidiaries which are not wholly-owned.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We define EBITDA as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash impairment loss, deferred rent, pre-opening expenses, non-recurring gains and losses, losses from discontinued operations, derivative income and stock based compensation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have been presented in this Report and are supplemental measures of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP.

We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are more appropriate measures of operating performance, as they provide a clearer picture of our operating results by eliminating certain non-cash expenses that are not reflective of the underlying business performance. We use these metrics to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to analyze the factors and trends affecting our business as well as evaluate the performance of our units. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and our calculation thereof may not be comparable to that reported by other companies; accordingly, you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is included in this Report because it is a key metric used by management. Additionally, Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use Adjusted EBITDA, alongside other GAAP measures such as net income (loss), to measure profitability, as a key profitability target in our annual and other budgets, and to compare our performance against that of peer companies. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information facilitating operating performance comparisons from period to period and company to company.

Adjusted Net Income. We define Adjusted Net income as Net income before loss from discontinued operations, non-recurring gains, derivative income, stock based compensation, non-cash impairment losses, and non-recurring acceleration of depreciation. Adjusted Net Income has been presented in this Report and is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. Adjusted Net Income has limitations as an analytical tool and our calculation thereof may not be comparable to that reported by other companies; accordingly, you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

We believe that Adjusted Net Income provides a clearer picture of our operating results by eliminating certain non-cash expenses that are not reflective of the underlying business performance. We use this metric to facilitate a comparison of our operating performance on a consistent basis from period to period and to analyze the factors and trends affecting our business.

These expenses are being shown as a percentage of owned unit net revenues.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2013

Revenues

Owned unit net revenues. Owned unit net revenues increased $996,000, or 10.9%, from $9.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $10.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. This increase was primarily due to the opening of our STK in Washington, DC and an increase in comparable owned unit net revenues of $219,000, or 1.2%. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $289,000 in revenues due to the temporary closure and renovation of The Perry Hotel in Miami in which we operate one STK and also provide food and beverage services to the hotel. We expect this STK to reopen in the fourth quarter of 2014. On June 19, 2014, we received a notice from The Perry Hotel terminating our service agreement to operate the roof and pool areas of the hotel. In connection with this termination, The Perry Hotel paid us $1.2 million on July 28, 2014.

Management and incentive fee revenue. Management and incentive fee revenues increased $290,000, or 15.6%, from $1.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in the management and incentive fee income that we received at our STK in Las Vegas as well as an increase in revenues from our food and beverage hospitality operations at the ME Hotel in London.

Cost and Expenses

Food and beverage costs. Food and beverage costs increased $138,000, or 5.8%, from $2.4 million or 26.2% of owned unit net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $2.5 million or 24.9% of owned unit net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in the percentage of food and beverage costs was related primarily to management’s improvements in increasing profit margins through improved operating efficiencies. Food revenues as a percentage of total food and beverage revenues were approximately 57% and 56% for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Food cost as a percentage of food revenues are typically higher than beverage cost as a percentage of beverage revenues.

Unit operating expenses. Unit operating expenses increased $349,000, or 6.2%, from $5.6 million or 61.5% of owned unit net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $6.0 million or 58.8% of owned unit net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to the new STK unit opening in Washington, DC in April 2014 and was partially offset by improvements in operating efficiencies as it related to payroll expenses.

General and administrative. General and administrative costs increased $1.2 million to $2.2 million, or 117.5%, during the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013. General and administrative costs as a percentage of total revenues increased from 9.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to 17.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. This increase was due to an increase in professional fees in connection with our status as a public company as well as additional payroll related to the expansion of our corporate infrastructure to help facilitate our long-term growth in the United States and internationally.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $31,000, or 8.2%, from $380,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $349,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014. This decrease was primarily related to the temporary closure of the STK in Miami at The Perry Hotel due to a major renovation in 2013.

Management and royalty fees. Management and royalty fees increased to $74,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $20,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Pre-opening expenses. Restaurant pre-opening costs increased $254,000, or 76.5%, from $333,000 or 3.0% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $587,000 or 4.8% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase related to the preopening costs associated with the new STK in Washington, DC which opened in April 2014.

Equity in income of investee companies. Equity in income of investee companies increased by $39,000 from $167,000, or 1.5% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013, to $206,000 or 1.7% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014 primarily related to an increase in income from the ownership interest in the Bagatelle unit in New York City.

Derivative income. Derivative income was $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Derivative income represents the decrease in the total fair value of the derivative liability that is related to the potential exercise of the publicly traded warrants.

Interest expense, net of interest income. Interest expense, net of interest income decreased by $185,000, or 82.4%, from $225,000, or 2.0% of consolidated revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013, to $40,000, or 0.3% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014, due primarily to the decrease in member loans outstanding at June 30, 2014.

Other expense (income). Other expense (income) decreased by $267,000 from $236,000 of other expense, or 2.2% of total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013, to $31,000 of other income, or 0.3% of total revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2014.

Provision for income taxes. Income tax expense increased by $100,000 to $116,000 tax expense during the three months ended June 30, 2014 from a $16,000 tax expense during the three months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, we were a limited liability company and not subject to federal taxes. As a result of the Merger, we are now a corporation that is subject to federal, state and city taxes. The deferred tax asset and corresponding valuation allowance increased for the second quarter of 2014. The deferred tax asset increased as a result of current deferred timing items and our acquisition of the remaining portion of one of our partnership interests. The valuation allowance increased accordingly given the uncertainty of realizing these deferred tax assets in the foreseeable future.

Loss from discontinued operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we closed one company-owned venue in New York. The closed company-owned unit was abandoned. The operations and related expenses of this location is presented as loss from discontinued operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $1.2 million for units which closed after June 30, 2013. Loss from discontinued operations decreased by $1.1 million to $346,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2014 from $1.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest. Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest increased $245,000, or 216.5%, to income of $132,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 from a loss $113,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2013

Revenues

Owned unit net revenues. Owned unit net revenues decreased $237,000, or 1.3%, from $18.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $18.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $2.2 million in revenues due to the temporary closure and renovation of The Perry Hotel in Miami in which we operate one STK and also provide food and beverage services to the hotel. We expect this STK to reopen in the fourth quarter of 2014. On June 19, 2014, we received a notice from The Perry Hotel terminating our service agreement to operate the food and beverage operations of the hotel. In connection with this termination The Perry Hotel paid us $1.2 million on July 28, 2014. The termination does not impact our lease agreement for our STK at the Perry Hotel. The decrease in owned unit net revenues was partially offset by revenue at our STK in Washington, DC which opened in April 2014, an increase in offsite special events and an increase of $350,000, or 1.9%, at our comparable owned units.

Management and incentive fee revenue. Management and incentive fee revenues increased $814,000, or 23.6%, from $3.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. This increase was driven primarily by an increase in the management and incentive fee income that we received at our STK in Las Vegas as well as a full three months of our food and beverage hospitality operations at the ME Hotel in London, which was only open for part of the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Revenue generated from these restaurants, lounges, and food and beverage services at hospitality venues impacts both our owned unit net revenues and the amount of management and incentive fees earned. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, comparable unit sales of owned or managed STKs increased 5.2% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. The average check for owned or managed STKs decreased $3.87 from $128.00 for the last twelve month period ended June 30, 2013 to $124.13 for the last twelve month period ended June 30, 2014.

Cost and Expenses

Food and beverage costs. Food and beverage costs decreased $159,000, or 3.3%, from $4.8 million or 26.1% of owned unit net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $4.7 million or 25.6% of owned unit net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in food and beverage costs was related primarily to management’s improvements in increasing profit margins through improved operating efficiencies. Food revenues as a percentage of total food and beverage revenues were approximately 58% and 56% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Food cost as a percentage of food revenues are typically higher than beverage cost as a percentage of beverage revenues.

Unit operating expenses. Unit operating expenses increased $347,000, or 3.1%, from $11.1 million or 59.8% of owned unit net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $11.4 million or 62.4% of owned unit net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to the new STK unit opening in Washington, DC in April 2014 and was partially offset by improvements in operating efficiencies as related to payroll expenses.

General and administrative. General and administrative costs increased $2.2 million to $4.1 million, or 116.7%, during the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. General and administrative costs as a percentage of total revenues increased from 8.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to 18.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. This increase was due to an increase in professional fees in connection with our status as a public company as well as additional payroll related to the expansion of our corporate infrastructure to help facilitate our long-term growth in the United States and internationally.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $183,000, or 21.4%, from $856,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $673,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. This decrease was primarily related to the temporary closure of the STK in Miami at The Perry Hotel due to a major renovation in 2013.

Management and royalty fees. Management and royalty fees increased to $96,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $40,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Pre-opening expenses. Restaurant pre-opening costs increased $461,000, or 123.7%, from $372,000 or 1.7% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $833,000 or 3.7% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase related to the preopening costs associated with the new STK in Washington, DC which opened in April 2014.

Equity in income of investee companies. Equity in income of investee companies decreased by $80,000 from $400,000, or 1.8% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013, to $320,000 or 1.4% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily related to a decline in income from the ownership interest in the Bagatelle unit in New York City.

Derivative income. Derivative income was $2.8 million, or 12.4% of consolidated revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Derivative income represents the decrease in the total fair value of the derivative liability that is related to the potential exercise of the publicly traded warrants.

Interest expense, net of interest income. Interest expense, net of interest expense decreased by $321,000, or 84.6%, from $379,000, or 1.7% of consolidated revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013, to $58,000, or 0.3% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2014, due primarily to the decrease in member loans outstanding at June 30, 2014.

Other expense (income). Other expense (income) decreased by $119,000 from $189,000 of other expense, or 0.9% of total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013, to $71,000 of other expense, or 0.3% of total revenues, for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

Provision for income taxes. Income tax expense increased by $287,000 to $351,000 tax expense during the six months ended June 30, 2014 from a $64,000 tax expense during the six months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, we were a limited liability company and not subject to federal taxes. As a result of the Merger, we are now a corporation that is subject to federal, state and city taxes. The deferred tax asset and corresponding valuation allowance increased for the second quarter of 2014. The deferred tax asset increased as a result of current deferred timing items and our acquisition of the remaining portion of one of our partnership interests. The valuation allowance increased accordingly given the uncertainty of realizing these deferred tax assets in the foreseeable future.

Loss from discontinued operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we closed one company-owned venue in New York. The closed company-owned unit was abandoned. The operations and related expenses of this location is presented as loss from discontinued operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we closed one company-owned venue in New York City and we also recorded a loss from discontinued operations of approximately $2.7 million for units which closed after June 30, 2013. Loss from discontinued operations decreased by $2.1 million to $1.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $3.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest decreased $168,000, or 47.3%, to $187,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $355,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly Results and Seasonality

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, including the timing of new restaurant openings and related expenses, profitability of new restaurants compared with more mature units, increases or decreases in comparable restaurant sales, general economic conditions, changes in consumer preferences, competitive factors and changes in food costs (especially beef). In the past, we have experienced significant variability in restaurant pre-opening costs from quarter to quarter primarily due to the timing of restaurant openings. We typically incur restaurant pre-opening costs in the five months preceding a new restaurant opening. In addition, our experience to date has been that labor and direct operating and occupancy costs associated with a newly opened restaurant during the first five to nine months of operation are often materially greater than what will be expected after that time, both in aggregate dollars and as a percentage of restaurant sales. Accordingly, the number and timing of new restaurant openings in any quarter has had, and is expected to continue to have, a significant impact on quarterly restaurant pre-opening costs, labor and direct operating and occupancy costs. Our business also is subject to fluctuations due to season and adverse weather. Our results of operations have historically been impacted by seasonality. Our second and fourth quarters have traditionally had higher sales volume than other periods of the year. Severe weather may impact restaurant unit volumes in some of the markets where we operate and may have a greater impact should they occur during our higher volume months, especially the second and fourth quarters. As a result of these and other factors, our financial results for any given quarter may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full fiscal year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal liquidity requirements are to meet our lease obligations, our working capital and capital expenditure needs and to pay principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. Subject to our operating performance, which, if significantly adversely affected, would adversely affect the availability of funds, we expect to finance our operations for at least the next 12 to 18 months, including costs of opening currently planned new restaurants, through cash received by us in connection with the Merger, as well as cash provided by operations, construction allowances provided by landlords of certain locations and borrowings under our existing credit facility discussed below. We cannot be sure that these sources will be sufficient to finance our operations beyond that period, however, and we may seek additional financing in the future, which may or may not be available on terms and conditions satisfactory to us, or at all. As of June 30, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $7.1 million.

Our operations have not required significant working capital and, like many restaurant companies, we may at times have negative working capital. Revenues are received primarily in cash or by credit card, and restaurant operations do not require significant receivables or inventories, other than our wine inventory. In addition, we receive trade credit for the purchase of food, beverages and supplies, thereby reducing the need for incremental working capital to support growth.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013:

Operating Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, cash flows used in operating activities were $2.9 million, consisting of net income of $2.1 million, which included a loss from discontinued operations of $1.3 million and adjustments for depreciation, amortization, deferred rent and other non-cash charges totaling $1.9 million, including a non-cash derivative income of $2.8 million, and a non-cash stock-based compensation of $167,000. Net cash outflow of operating assets and liabilities totaled $3.2 million and included increases in accounts receivable of $449,000, a decrease in prepaid expenses of $139,000, increases in other assets of $922,000 and a decrease of $2.1 million in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, cash flows used in operating activities were $1.4 million, consisting of net loss of $687,000 and adjustments for depreciation, amortization, deferred rent and other non-cash charges of $1.6 million. Net cash outflow of operating assets and liabilities totaled $2.1 million and included increases in accounts receivable of $737,000, increases in prepaid expenses of $625,000 and an increase of $700,000 in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $2.2 million, consisting primarily of purchases of property and equipment of $2.8 million, primarily related to the construction of new restaurants and general capital expenditures of existing restaurants during the period.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1.7 million, consisting primarily of purchases of property and equipment of $1.5 million, primarily related to construction of new restaurants and general capital expenditures of existing restaurants during the period.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $533,000, consisting of proceeds from our credit facility of $4.0 million, offset by principal payments made on our credit facility of $3.4 million and a repayment of notes payable of $10,000. This was partially offset by distributions to non-controlling interest members of $444,000.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $3.4 million, consisting of proceeds from our credit facility of $4.0 million, offset by principal payments made on our credit facility of $2.0 million, repayment of notes payable of $10,000, proceeds from member loans of $520,000 and contributions from new members of $2.0 million. This was partially offset by distributions to members of $976,000.

Capital Expenditures and Lease Arrangements

To the extent we open new restaurants, we anticipate capital expenditures in the future will increase from the amounts described in “—Investing Activities” above. We typically target an average cash investment of approximately $3.8 million on average for a 10,000 square-foot STK restaurant, in each case net of landlord contributions and equipment financing and excluding pre-opening costs. In addition, some of our existing units will require some capital improvements in the future to either maintain or improve the facilities. We are also looking at opportunities to add seating or provide enclosures for outdoor space in the next 12 months for some of our units. In addition, our hospitality food and beverage services projects typically require limited capital investment from us. These capital expenditures will primarily be funded by cash flows from operations and, if necessary, by the use of our credit facility, depending upon the timing of expenditures. We typically seek to lease our restaurant locations for primary periods of 10 to 20 years under operating lease arrangements. Our rent structures vary from lease to lease, but generally provide for the payment of both minimum and contingent (percentage) rent based on sales, as well as other expenses related to the leases (for example, our pro-rata share of common area maintenance, property tax and insurance expenses). Many of our lease arrangements include the opportunity to secure tenant improvement allowances to partially offset the cost of developing and opening the related restaurants. Generally, landlords recover the cost of such allowances from increased minimum rents. However, there can be no assurance that such allowances will be available to us on each project that we select for development.

Credit Facility

On October 31, 2011, we entered into a credit facility with BankUnited, N.A., or BankUnited (formerly Herald National Bank). On June 3, 2014 the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Credit Agreement to adjust the commitment termination date to October 31, 2014 and the maturity date of the Credit Agreement to October 31, 2015. On August 6, 2014 we entered into Amendment No. 4 and Addendum to the Credit Agreement with BankUnited to, among other things, increase our credit facility for up to $9.1 million, as well as update certain definitions, remove the advance ratio covenant and add a debt service coverage ratio calculation. The covenant calculations are effective for the period ending June 30, 2014 and we were in compliance with all the new covenants as of June 30, 2014.

Other Notes Payable

On October 1, 2009, One Group purchased the following membership units from a former member: 10.14% in JEC II, 6.55% in One Marks, 5.19% in Little West 12th and 4.63% in One LA. We paid $400,000, of which $300,000 was paid in cash and $100,000 in the form of a note, and issued warrants to purchase up to 10,090 of our membership units at an exercise price of $22.94 per membership unit, which were cancelled in conjunction with the Merger. Commencing in December 2009, quarterly payments of principal and interest in the amount of $5,656 are to accrue at an interest at a rate of 5% through September 2014. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $5,000 and $10,000 remained outstanding under this note, respectively.

Our capital expenditures will continue to be significant as we currently plan to open two new restaurants in fiscal 2014 in addition to our necessary restaurant-level maintenance and key initiative-related capital expenditures; however we continue to evaluate all options available to us. As of August 14, 2014, we have 5 signed leases or letters of intent for restaurant locations and/or management agreements that we expect to open in the future. Additionally, we expect to enter into several more letters of intent and/or leases during fiscal 2014. We currently anticipate our total capital expenditures for fiscal 2014, including all expenditure categories, to be approximately $7.0 million. We expect to fund our anticipated capital expenditures for fiscal 2014 with current cash and investment balances on hand, expected cash flows from operations, borrowings under our credit facility and proceeds from expected tenant improvement allowances. Our future cash requirements will depend on many factors, including the pace of our expansion, conditions in the retail property development market, construction costs, the nature of the specific sites selected for new restaurants, and the nature of the specific leases and associated tenant improvement allowances available, if any, as negotiated with landlords. We significantly depend on our expected cash flow from operations to fund the majority of our planned capital expenditures for 2014. If our business does not generate enough cash flow from operations as expected, and replacement funding sources are not otherwise available to us, we may not be able to expand our operations at the pace currently planned.

We believe that net cash provided by anticipated operating activities, net proceeds received by us in connection with the Merger and existing available borrowings under our credit facility will be sufficient to fund currently anticipated working capital, planned capital expenditures and debt service requirements for the next 12-18 months. We regularly review acquisitions and other strategic opportunities, which may require additional debt or equity financing. We currently do not have any pending agreements or understandings with respect to any acquisition or other strategic opportunities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity” (“ASU 2014-08 ”). ASU 2014-08 limits the requirement to report discontinued operations to disposals of components of an entity that represent strategic shifts that have (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial result. The amendments also require expanded disclosures concerning discontinued operations and disclosures of certain financial results attributable to a disposal of a significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The amendments in this ASU are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. The impact on our Financial Statements of adopting ASU 2014-08 is being assessed by management.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2014 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation of such internal control that occurred, during the second quarter of 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by management or employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014. Management’s assessment identified the following material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

Our material weakness relates to an insufficient number of accounting professionals with the necessary knowledge, experience and training to adequately prepare, record, and review significant complex transactions and valuations (such as revenue recognition, stock based compensation and earnings per share) and prepare financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in a timely manner.

In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992). Because of the material weakness described above, management believes that, as of June 30, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on those criteria.

As a private company that recently transitioned to a public company, One Group has not historically maintained the internal accounting and financial reporting resources necessary to comply with the obligations of a public reporting company. We have depended heavily upon the services of our Chief Financial Officer until we hired our Vice President of Financial Reporting in November 2013. However, such individual departed on January 17, 2014 and we are currently seeking her replacement. In the interim, we have retained a qualified internal accounting and financial reporting person on a temporary basis as we look for a person to permanently fill that role. We intend to assess the need to hire additional accounting and financial reporting professionals with the requisite knowledge, experience, and training to prepare, record and review complex transactions and valuations, and prepare financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in a timely manner.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. We were not required to have, nor have we, engaged our independent registered public accounting firm to perform an audit of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
