LANDRY'S SEAFOOD RESTAURANTS, INC.
PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
GENERAL
The executive headquarters and principal office of Landry's Seafood
Restaurants, Inc. (the "Company") are located at 1400 Post Oak Blvd., Suite
1010, Houston, Texas 77056, telephone (713) 850-1010. The Company was
incorporated in 1993 in the state of Delaware.
As of March 1, 1997, the Company owned and operated 85 full-service, mid-
priced, casual dining, seafood restaurants located in 20 states, primarily under
the names "Landry's Seafood House", "Joe's Crab Shack", "The Crab House" and
"Willie G's". In addition, the Company operates 3 limited-menu take-out service
units under the name "Capt. Crab's Take-Away". All of the Company's restaurants
operate with similar operating philosophies, management policies and practices,
training and control practices, purchasing, and menu selections. The Company's
primary growth will utilize the names Joe's Crab Shack, Landry's Seafood House
and The Crab House. The Company's restaurants appeal to a broad range of
customers by offering generous portions of fresh seafood and excellent service
in high energy environments at an attractive price value relationship. The
first Landry's Seafood House restaurant opened in 1980, the first Willie G's
opened in 1981. In 1988, Mr. Tilman J. Fertitta acquired sole ownership of
these restaurants. The first Joe's Crab Shack was acquired by the Company in
1994. The Company acquired the Bayport Restaurant Group, Inc., including a chain
of 17 full service seafood restaurants operating as "The Crab House", in August,
1996. The Company commenced an expansion program in 1990 which has resulted in
the opening of a significant number of restaurants. The Company intends to
continue its expansion program.
CONCEPT AND STRATEGY
Management believes that the relatively small number of national and regional
chain restaurants competing in the seafood segment of the restaurant industry,
as compared to other restaurant segments, provides the Company a significant
opportunity to capitalize on its high energy, casual dining seafood restaurants.
The key elements of the Company's restaurants include the following:
VARIETY AND VALUE. The Company provides customers an attractive price-value
relationship by serving generous portions of fresh seafood. The restaurants
feature a wide variety of broiled, grilled and fried seafood items, including
red snapper, shrimp, crawfish, crab and lump crabmeat, lobster, soft shell
crabs, oysters, scallops and flounder and other traditional seafood items.
These items are complimented by unique side dishes, salads, garlic bread,
appetizers and desserts presented in a visually appealing manner.
COMMITMENT TO CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. The Company is committed to providing
its customers prompt, friendly, efficient service, keeping table-to-waitstaff
ratios low, and staffing each restaurant with an experienced management team to
ensure attentive customer service and consistent food quality. Through the use
of comment cards and a 1-800 telephone number, senior management receives
valuable feedback from customers and, through prompt responses, demonstrates a
continuing interest in customer satisfaction.
2
DISTINCTIVE DESIGN AND DECOR AND CASUAL ATMOSPHERE. Each restaurant concept
has a similar appearance and a flexible design which can accommodate a wide
variety of available sites. For Landry's Seafood House, the Company has
developed a prototype look that is readily identified by a large theater-style
marquee over the entrance and by a distinctive brick and wood facade creating
the feeling of a traditional old seafood house restaurant. Joe's Crab Shack is
designed to appear like an old fishing camp with a wood facade, tin roof and a
raised outside deck. The Crab House restaurants feature a casual nautical theme,
and many include a fresh seafood salad bar. A casual, energetic dining
atmosphere is created for all of the Company's restaurants through the design
and decor of the dining areas, which generally display vibrant, colorful
interiors. In many locations, the Company's restaurants provide outdoor patio
service for a more casual, open-air dining experience and often feature
waterfront views.
HIGH PROFILE RESTAURANT LOCATIONS. The Company believes that its ability to
select high profile restaurant sites is critical to its success. The Company's
site selection strategy is to locate its restaurants in close proximity to
significant generators of potential customers such as major retail and business
centers, hotel concentrations, convention and entertainment complexes,
historical areas and waterfront locations.
COMMITMENT TO ATTRACTING AND RETAINING QUALITY EMPLOYEES. By providing
extensive training and attractive compensation, the Company fosters a strong
corporate culture and encourages a sense of personal commitment from its
employees. The Company has a monthly cash bonus program establishing
performance goals on a restaurant-by-restaurant basis for each restaurant's
management team pursuant to which management believes restaurant managers
typically earn bonuses equal to between 15% and 25% of their total cash
compensation. The Company has historically utilized a program of extensive
background checks for prospective management employees (including criminal
checks, credit checks and drug screening). Management believes its policies
have resulted in a low rate of management-level employee turnover.
MENU
The Company's restaurants offer a wide variety of broiled, grilled and fried
seafood items including red snapper, shrimp, crawfish, crabs and lump crabmeat,
lobster, oysters, scallops, flounder, and other traditional seafood items, many
with a choice of unique seasonings, stuffings and toppings. The Company's menu
also includes a wide variety of seafood appetizers, salads, soups and side
dishes. In order to provide an alternative to seafood items, the Company's
restaurants also offer Certified Angus beef, fowl, pastas, and other American
food entrees. The Company's restaurants also feature a unique selection of
desserts made fresh on a daily basis at each location. Most of the Company's
restaurants offer complimentary salad and bread with each entree, as well as
certain lunch specials and lower priced children's entrees. The Company's
restaurants emphasize a complete dining experience, and, accordingly, full
liquor service is available. During the year ended December 31, 1996, liquor
sales accounted for approximately 16% of the Company's total revenue. The
Company's restaurants serve both lunch and dinner. The average dinner entree
menu price for the Company's restaurants is between $11.00 and $13.00, excluding
menu entree items which are priced daily "at market", based on cost and
availability to the Company's restaurants. At certain of the Company's
restaurants, there is a separate lunch menu with reduced prices on selected
entrees.
SITE SELECTION
The Company's site selection strategy is to locate its restaurants in markets
which provide a balanced mix of tourist, convention, business and residential
clientele. A variety of factors are analyzed in the site selection process,
including local market demographics, site visibility, aesthetics (including
waterfront views) and accessibility and proximity to significant generators of
potential customers such as major retail centers, office complexes, hotel
concentrations, convention centers, historical areas and entertainment
facilities (stadiums, arenas, theaters, etc.). Management believes that this
strategy results in a high volume of new and repeat customers and provides the
Company with increased name recognition in new markets.
3
EXPANSION STRATEGY
The Company plans to focus expansion efforts primarily in the southern half of
the United States, although the Company will review situations that might arise
in major cities outside of this area. Second locations in an existing market
are likely to occur when management believes the area can effectively support
another quality seafood restaurant. The Company believes that the increased
consumption of seafood due to its taste, variety and perceived health
advantages, combined with the excellent unit economics of its restaurants,
support the Company's decision to concentrate its expansion efforts on quality
seafood restaurants in strategically targeted markets.
Beginning in 1990 the Company implemented an accelerated expansion strategy.
The Company currently plans to open at least 25 restaurants in 1997. The number
of restaurants actually opened will vary depending upon, among other things, the
Company's ability to locate suitable sites, the availability of financing and
general economic conditions.
The Company has designated a team of employees that are responsible for
opening new locations, including kitchen personnel and other individuals who are
trained as hosts, waiters, floor managers and bartenders. The Company has
enhanced its management training program to enable assistant general managers to
be promoted to general managers. The Company believes that through its training
program and the hiring of outside personnel it will be able to support its
expansion strategy.
MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES
The Company's policy is to staff its restaurants with management that has
significant experience in the restaurant industry. The Company believes its
strong team-oriented culture helps it attract and retain highly motivated
employees who provide customers with a level of service superior to that
normally found in other restaurants. The Company trains its kitchen employees
and waitstaff to take great pride in preparing and serving food in accordance
with the strict standards established by the Company. Restaurant managers and
staff are trained to be courteous and attentive to customer needs, and the
managers, in particular, are instructed to visit each table. Senior corporate
management holds weekly and monthly group meetings with the restaurants' general
managers to discuss individual restaurant performance and customer comments.
Moreover, the Company requires general managers to hold regular staff meetings
at their individual restaurants. Compliance with the Company's quality
requirements is monitored through periodic on-site visits and formal periodic
inspections by the regional manager and supervisory personnel from the Company's
corporate offices.
The management staff of a typical restaurant consists of a five-person
management team (one general manager, two kitchen managers, and two floor
managers) with the general manager having overall responsibility for restaurant
operations. The general managers typically have been promoted after training in
all areas of restaurant level management within the Company. The kitchen
managers in each restaurant supervise kitchen operations, which allows the
general managers to spend most of their time in the dining area of the
restaurant supervising the staff and providing service to customers. Each
restaurant's management team is eligible to receive monthly incentive bonuses
subject to achievement of operating performance objectives specifically tailored
for such restaurant for each monthly period. These employees typically earn
between 15% and 25% of their total cash compensation under this program. In
addition, general managers, kitchen managers and floor managers are entitled to
participate in the Company's stock option plan.
4
The Company has historically spent considerable effort in screening
prospective employees and training and developing employees, allowing it to
promote from within. The Company requires each employee to participate in a
formal training program that utilizes departmental training manuals,
examinations and a scheduled evaluation process. Newly hired waitstaff are
required to spend from five to 10 days in training before they serve customers.
The Company utilizes a program of extensive background checks for prospective
management employees such as criminal background checks, credit checks and drug
screening. Management believes its policies have resulted in a reduced rate of
management-level employee turnover. Management training encompasses three
general areas, including (I) all service positions; (ii) management accounting,
personnel management and dining room and bar operations; and (iii) kitchen
management, which entails food preparation and quality controls, cost controls,
training, ordering and receiving and sanitation operations. Due to the Company's
enhanced training program, management training now lasts approximately 8 to 12
weeks, depending upon the trainee's prior experience and performance relative to
the Company's objectives. As the Company expands, it will need to hire
additional management personnel and its continued success will depend in large
part on its ability to attract, train, and retain quality management employees.
There are currently eleven individuals involved in regional management
functions. As the Company grows, it plans to increase the number of regional
managers, and to have each regional manager responsible for a limited number of
restaurants within those geographic regions. The Company plans to promote
experienced restaurant level management personnel to serve as future regional
managers as well as hire needed personnel from outside the Company.
As of March 1, 1997, the Company employed approximately 6,700 persons, of whom
approximately 430 were restaurant managers or manager-trainees, approximately
250 were administrative, and the rest were hourly. Each restaurant employs an
average of approximately 80 to 100 people, depending on seasonal needs. The
Company considers its employees to be of high quality and believes that its
employee turnover rate is within industry standards. None of the Company's
employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. The Company
considers its relationship with employees to be satisfactory.
COMPETITION
The restaurant industry is intensely competitive with respect to price,
service, the type and quality of food offered, location and other factors. The
Company has many well established competitors, both seafood and non-seafood,
with substantially greater financial resources and a longer history of
operations than the Company. The Company competes with both locally-owned
seafood and non-seafood restaurants, as well as national and regional seafood
and non-seafood restaurant chains, some of which may be better established in
the Company's existing and future markets. In particular, Red Lobster, a
national seafood restaurant chain, operates over 600 seafood restaurants
nationwide, many of which operate in the Company's existing and future markets.
Changes in customer tastes, economic conditions, demographic trends and the
location and number of, and type of food served by, competing restaurants could
adversely affect the Company's business as could the unavailability of
experienced management and hourly employees. Management believes its restaurants
enjoy a high level of repeat business and customer loyalty due to high food
quality, comfortable atmosphere, and friendly efficient service.
GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS
Each of the Company's restaurants is subject to various federal, state and
local laws, regulations and administrative practices affecting its business and
must comply with provisions regulating health and sanitation standards, equal
employment, minimum wages and licensing for the sale of food and alcoholic
beverages. Difficulties or failures in obtaining the required licenses or
approvals could delay or prevent the opening of a new restaurant.
5
Approximately 16% of the Company's revenues are attributable to the sale of
liquor. Alcoholic beverage control regulations require each of the Company's
restaurants to apply for and obtain from state authorities a license or permit
to sell liquor on the premises and to provide service for extended hours and on
Sundays. Typically, licenses must be renewed annually and may be revoked or
suspended for cause at any time. Alcoholic beverage control regulations affect
various aspects of daily operations of the Company's restaurants, including
minimum age of patrons and employees, hours of operation, advertising, wholesale
purchasing, inventory control and handling, storage and dispensing of alcoholic
beverages. Difficulties or failures in obtaining required licensing or other
regulatory approvals could delay or prevent the opening of a new restaurant.
The suspension of, or inability to renew, a license could interrupt operations
at an existing restaurant, and the inability to retain or renew such licenses
would adversely affect the operations of the restaurants. In certain states,
the Company may be subject to "dram-shop" statutes, which generally provide a
person injured by an intoxicated person the right to recover damages from the
establishment which wrongfully served alcoholic beverages to the intoxicated
person. The Company carries liquor liability coverage as part of its
comprehensive general liability insurance.
The Company's operations are also subject to federal and state minimum wage
laws governing such matters as working conditions, overtime and tip credits.
Requirements of local governmental entities with respect to zoning, land use and
environmental factors could delay or prevent the development of new restaurants
in particular locations.
In January 1994, the Food and Drug Administration issued proposed regulations
relating to the establishment of procedures for the safe processing and
importing of fish and fishery products. The proposed regulations, which will
not apply to retail restaurant establishments, if enacted, will establish
regulations to ensure the safe processing and importing of seafood by means of
implementation of monitoring systems based upon hazard analysis critical control
point principles. While the proposed regulations will not directly affect
retail establishments, the Company can make no assurances that the regulations,
if adopted, will not result in increased costs of operations.
At the federal level, there are proposals under consideration to introduce a
system of mandated health insurance. These and other initiatives could adversely
affect the Company as well as the restaurant industry in general.
SERVICE MARKS
"Landry's Seafood House", Landry's, Willie G's, and Joe's Crab Shack are
registered as a federal service mark on the Principal Register of the United
States Patent and Trademark Office. In addition, the Company has registered
numerous other marks related to its business and advertising.
INFORMATION AS TO CLASSES OF SIMILAR PRODUCTS OR SERVICES
The Company operates in only one industry segment. All significant revenues
and pre-tax earnings relate to retail sales of food and beverages to the general
public through company-owned and company-operated restaurants. The Company has
no operations outside the continental United States.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
RESTAURANT LOCATIONS
The Company's restaurants range in size from 5,000 square feet to 16,000
square feet, with the average restaurant containing approximately 8,400 square
feet. The restaurants generally have dining room floor seating for
approximately 215 customers, many with patio seating on a seasonal basis, and
bar seating for approximately 10 to 20 additional customers.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
INTRODUCTION
As of March 1, 1997, the Company owned and operated 85 full-service,
casual dining seafood restaurants located in 20 states. In addition, the
Company operates 3 limited-menu take-out service units under the name "Capt.
Crab's Take-Away".
The Company's operations may be impacted by changes in federal and
state taxes and other federal and state governmental policies, which include
many possible factors such as the level of minimum wages, the deductibility of
business and entertainment expenses, levels of disposable income, and national
and regional economic growth. The recent enactment of staged increases to
federally mandated minimum wage will increase the Company's labor costs.
Effective October 1, 1996, the federal minimum wage increased from $4.25/hour to
$4.75/hour, and is scheduled to further increase to $5.25/hour effective October
1, 1997. The new minimum wage increases affected primarily initial entry-level
wages of the least skilled jobs in the Company's restaurant kitchens, as the
federal law mandated an offsetting increase in the tip-credit amounts for tipped
employees (i.e., waitstaff).
Upon the consummation of the merger with Bayport Restaurant Group
("Bayport"), the Company recognized a one-time charge of approximately $17
million, after provision for income taxes. In addition, the Company's restaurant
base has increased significantly through the acquisition of the Bayport
restaurants pursuant to the merger. Such restaurants have materially different
profit margins, costs to construct, costs of sales, operating expenses, and
other restaurant performance factors than the Company's other existing
restaurants. The Company is making efforts to reduce construction and operating
costs of the Bayport restaurants without reducing the quality of their service
or food. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to
operate the Bayport restaurants in a manner that is different from the way such
restaurants were historically constructed and operated. As a result, the
Company's profit margin, cost to construct, cost of sales as percentages of
restaurant sales, operating expenses and other restaurant performance factors on
an ongoing basis may be materially different than the Company's on a historical
stand-alone basis.
This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), which are intended to be
covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Investors are cautioned that all
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainty, including without
limitation, the ability of the Company to continue its accelerated expansion

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995
Revenues increased $78,486,560, or 49.8%, from $157,620,317 to
$236,106,877 for the year ended December 31, 1996, compared to the year ended
December 31, 1995. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to
revenues from new restaurant openings. There was a nominal change in revenues
from units opened prior to 1995. Several of the Company's restaurants that
opened during 1995 opened at volumes in excess of the Company's average unit
volumes. Subsequently, however, the Company has experienced a moderation of
their initial unit volumes.
As a primary result of increased revenues, restaurant cost of sales
increased $24,325,584, or 50.7%, from $47,978,164 to $72,303,748 for the year
ended December 31, 1996 compared to the prior year. Restaurant cost of sales as
a percentage of restaurant revenues for the year ended December 31, 1996
decreased to 31.1% from 32.0% in 1995. The decrease in restaurant cost of sales
as a percentage of restaurant revenues reflects favorable product prices and
better management cost controls in 1996.
Restaurant labor expenses increased $21,654,012, or 56.1%, from
$38,594,818 to $60,248,830 for the year ended December 31, 1996 compared to the
prior year. Restaurant labor expenses as a percentage of restaurant revenues
for the year ended December 31, 1996, increased to 25.9% from 25.8% in 1995.
The increase in restaurant labor as a percentage of restaurant revenues was
primarily as a result of increased labor costs attributable to new Crab House
restaurants.
Other restaurant operating expenses increased $19,413,943, or 61.3%,
from $31,662,794 to $51,076,737 for the year ended December 31, 1996, compared
to the prior year, as a result of increased revenues and the opening of new
restaurants in 1996. Such expenses increased as a percentage of revenues to
22.0% from 21.1% primarily as a result of higher occupancy and other operating
costs of new Crab House restaurants.
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $5,160,809, or 66.0%,
from $7,817,266 to $12,978,075 for the year ended December 31, 1996, compared to
the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the addition of new
restaurants and purchases of new equipment.
General and administrative expenses increased $1,009,657, or 12.0%,
from $8,436,884 to $9,446,541 compared to the prior year, and decreased as a
percentage of total revenues to 4.0% from 5.4%. During 1995 and the first seven
months of 1996, Landry's and Bayport operated as separate companies and were
increasing the general and administrative expenses to support each company's
separate growth plans. However, upon the consummation of the merger, Bayport's
corporate offices were closed and substantially all of Bayport's office
employees were terminated. As a result, general and administrative expenses were
less than the combined expenses of the separate companies, causing the decrease
in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales in 1996 compared
to 1995. In August 1996 merger costs were incurred related to the merger with
Bayport. These costs primarily include investment banking fees, legal and
accounting fees, printing, filing and related costs, employee severance payments
and write-off of specific assets which included duplicative restaurant locations
and certain non-operating properties.
Net interest income increased by $775,350 from $1,604,081 to
$2,379,431 in 1996 compared to 1995. The increase resulted primarily from the
Company's investment of excess cash in interest bearing securities subsequent to
the Company's public stock offerings. Other expenses, net increased by $263,162,
and was not deemed significant.
Provision for income taxes decreased by $5,166,399 from $5,945,850 in
1995 to $779,451 in 1996 primarily due to the change in the Company's income.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
Revenues increased $56,846,948, or 55.4%, from $100,773,369 to
$157,620,317 for the year ended December 31, 1995, compared to the year ended
December 31, 1994. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to
revenues from new restaurant openings. There was a nominal change in revenues
from units opened prior to 1994. Several of the Company's restaurants that
opened during late 1994 and early 1995 opened at volumes in excess of the
Company's average unit volumes. Subsequently, however, the Company has
experienced a moderation of their initial unit volumes.
11
As a primary result of increased revenues, restaurant cost of sales
increased $16,554,175, or 52.7%, from $31,423,989 to $47,978,164 for the year
ended December 31, 1995 compared to the prior year. Restaurant cost of sales as
a percentage of restaurant revenues for the year ended December 31, 1995
decreased to 32.0% from 32.6% in 1994. The decrease in restaurant cost of sales
as a percentage of restaurant revenues reflects favorable product prices and
better management cost controls in 1995.
Restaurant labor expenses increased $14,608,782, or 60.9%, from
$23,986,036 to $38,594,818 for the year ended December 31, 1995 compared to the
prior year. Restaurant labor expenses as a percentage of restaurant revenues
for the year ended December 31, 1995, increased to 25.8% from 24.9% in 1994.
The increase in restaurant labor as a percentage of restaurant revenues was
net of an increased restaurant labor percentage in the Landry's restaurants due
to competitive pressures and expansion, offset by a smaller reduction in the
Bayport restaurants.
Other restaurant operating expenses increased $10,057,261, or 46.5%,
from $21,605,533 to $31,662,794 for the year ended December 31, 1995, compared
to the prior year, as a result of increased revenues and the opening of new
restaurants in 1995. Such expenses decreased as a percentage of revenues to
21.1% from 22.4% primarily due to strong revenue growth exceeding the increase
in other restaurant operating expenses and reductions in the rent expense
percentage due to a greater percentage of fee-owned restaurants.
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $3,757,200, or 92.5%,
from $4,060,066 to $7,817,266 for the year ended December 31, 1995, compared to
the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the addition of new
restaurants and purchases of new equipment.
General and administrative expenses increased $2,319,650, or 37.9%,
from $6,117,234 to $8,436,884 compared to the prior year, and decreased as a
percentage of total revenues to 5.4% from 6.1%. The dollar increase resulted
primarily from increased office personnel, salaries and travel to support the
Company's expansion.
Net interest income increased by $689,294 from $914,787 to $1,604,081
in 1995 compared to 1994. The increase resulted primarily from the Company's
investment of excess cash in interest bearing securities subsequent to the
Company's public stock offerings. Other expenses, net increased by $16,071, and
was not deemed significant.
Provision for income taxes increased by $2,426,194 from $3,519,657 in
1994 to $5,945,851 in 1995 primarily due to the change in the Company's income.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In 1994 and 1995 the Company, exclusive of Bayport, spent
approximately $32 million and $71 million on capital expenditures. Since 1993,
the Company has funded capital expenditures primarily from proceeds of common
stock offerings, and in part from cash flow from operations of approximately $10
million and $19 million, respectively. Separately, Bayport spent approximately
$5 million and $19 million in 1994 and 1995 on capital expenditures. In recent
years and through the date of the merger, Bayport primarily funded capital
expenditures out of borrowings.
In 1996 the combined capital expenditures of the Company was
approximately $64 million. The Company funded capital expenditures out of
existing cash balances and cash flow from operations during 1996. Bayport's
portion of capital expenditures were funded, up to the date of the merger, out
of additional borrowings. In addition, the Company incurred merger costs
related to the acquisition of Bayport and repaid the pre-merger outstanding
indebtedness of Bayport. As a result, the combined entities cash balances
declined from approximately $119 million at June 30, 1996, immediately prior to
the merger, to approximately $57 million at December 31, 1996, and the majority
of the outstanding debt of the combined companies was eliminated.
12
The Company's current development plan is to open at least 25
restaurants in 1997. Exclusive of any acquisitions or large real estate
purchases, the Company currently expects to incur capital expenditures of up to
$55-$65 million in 1997, depending upon the actual timing of construction
expenditures, the number of land purchases, the amount of expenditures spent on
remodels, and the mix of leased, owned or conversion type locations. The
Company expects that its average per unit investment, excluding real estate
costs and pre-opening expenses, to approximate $2 million. Crab House
restaurants have historically been a significantly higher average unit
investment cost due to their size, geographic location and other factors. On a
go-forward basis, the Company will attempt to reduce the average new unit
investment costs of future Crab House restaurants to an amount more comparable
to the Company's other restaurants. However, individual unit investment costs
can vary from management's expectations due to a variety of factors. Moreover,
average unit investment costs are dependent upon many factors, including
competition for sites, location, construction costs, unit size and the mix of
conversions, build-to-suit, leased and fee-owned locations. The Company
currently anticipates that it will continue to purchase a portion of its new
restaurant locations, which are expected to be more costly than leased
locations. The Company believes that existing cash balances, cash generated
from operations and potential financing sources will be sufficient to satisfy
the Company's working capital and capital expenditure requirements through 1997.
The Company has a $25 million line of credit which expires in May,
1997. The Company is currently negotiating an increase in the amount and term of
the line of credit.
SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY RESULTS
The Company's business is seasonal in nature, with revenues and, to a
greater degree, operating profits being lower in the first and fourth quarters
than in other quarters due to the Company's reduced winter volumes. The timing
of unit openings can and will affect quarterly results. The Company
anticipates some moderation in revenues from the initial volumes of new units.
The timing of unit openings can and will affect quarterly results.
IMPACT OF INFLATION
Management does not believe inflation has had a significant effect on
the Company's operations during the past several years. Management believes the
Company has historically been able to pass on increased costs through menu price
increases, but there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so in the
future. Future increases in land and construction costs could adversely affect
the Company's ability to expand.

LANDRY'S SEAFOOD RESTAURANTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The accompanying financial statements include the consolidated accounts of
Landry's Seafood Restaurants, Inc., a Delaware holding company (the "Company")
and its wholly owned subsidiaries as of and for the years ended December 31,
1996 and 1995. The Company owns and operates seafood restaurants primarily under
the trade names Landry's Seafood House, Joe's Crab Shack and The Crab House. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or
market and consist primarily of food and beverages.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major
renewals and betterments are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are
expensed as incurred.
The Company computes depreciation on the straight-line method. The
estimated lives used in computing depreciation are as follows:
Years
-----
Buildings and improvements ............................ 10-30
Furniture, fixtures and equipment .................... 5-10
Leasehold improvements ....................... Shorter of 30 years or lease term
PRE-OPENING COSTS
The direct and incremental costs incurred in connection with the
commencement of each restaurant's operations, substantially comprised of
training-related costs, are capitalized as pre-opening costs. Amounts
capitalized are being amortized using the straight-line method over 12 months
and are included in other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets.
Pre-opening costs, net of amortization, as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, were
approximately $1,624,840 and $3,628,000, respectively.
DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Certain direct costs are capitalized in conjunction with site selection for
planned future restaurants and for acquiring restaurant properties. Direct and
certain indirect costs are capitalized in conjunction with constructing new
restaurants. These costs are included in property and equipment in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized over the life of the
related building and leasehold interest. Costs related to abandoned site
selections and general site selection costs which cannot be identified with
specific restaurants are charged to operations.
GOODWILL AND NON-COMPETE AGREEMENTS
Goodwill and non-compete agreements are amortized over 30 years and 15
years (or the life of the related agreement), respectively. These amounts are
included in goodwill and other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets, respectively.
21
LANDRY'S SEAFOOD RESTAURANTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NET INCOME PER SHARE
Net income per share has been computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average common and common share equivalents outstanding, if material.
Common stock equivalent shares, which relate to stock options, are included in
the weighted average using the treasury stock method when the effect is material
and dilutive. Fully diluted earnings per share for 1996, 1995 and 1994 are not
presented as the dilutive effect is not material.
CASH FLOW REPORTING
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months
or less to be cash equivalents.
During 1995 and 1994, the Company entered into notes payable
aggregating $250,000, and $1,825,000, respectively, in connection with the
purchase of restaurant locations and certain restaurant equipment which are
excluded from the investing and financing activities on the consolidated
statements of cash flow.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results may differ from those estimates.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
LEASE COMMITMENTS
The Company has entered into lease commitments for restaurant
facilities as well as certain fixtures, equipment and leasehold improvements.
Under most of the facility lease agreements, the Company pays taxes, insurance
and maintenance costs in addition to the lease payments. Certain facility
leases also provide for additional contingent rentals based on a percentage of
sales in excess of a minimum amount. Rental expense under operating leases was
approximately $10,639,000, $7,444,000 and $5,927,000 during 1996, 1995, and
1994.
25
LANDRY'S SEAFOOD RESTAURANTS, INC.

-----------
Total minimum rentals.............. $128,200,000
===========
LITIGATION AND CLAIMS
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in
the ordinary course of its business. Management believes, based on discussions
with its legal counsel and in consideration of reserves recorded, that the
outcome of all legal actions will not have a material adverse effect upon the
consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company.
INSURANCE
The Company is self-insured with respect to any potential workers'
compensation claim in Texas, but retains excess employer's indemnity coverage
for any claim in excess of $100,000. Management believes that any claims paid
under this self-insured program will not have a material adverse effect upon the
consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company because
of the Company's historically low level of claims related to workers'
compensation. Since the Company commenced operations in states other than
Texas, it has been required to subscribe to workers' compensation insurance in
those states. The Company maintains a $250,000 deductible for losses in most
states.
7. BUSINESS COMBINATION
On August 9, 1996, the Company, under an Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the "Merger Agreement") exchanged 1.8 million newly issued common shares and .1
million preferred shares for all of the outstanding common and preferred shares
of Bayport. Accordingly, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company merged with
and into Bayport Restaurant Group, Inc. ("Bayport"), resulting in Bayport
becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the""Merger"). Bayport
operated 17 full-service casual dining seafood restaurants under the name "The
Crab House". Bayport's Crab House restaurants are located primarily in Florida.
The exchange of shares was accounted for as a pooling of interests,
and, accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
restated to include the accounts and operations of Bayport for all periods
presented. Adjustments to the balance sheet accounts of Bayport to account for
the merger exchange ratios of common and preferred stock include
reclassifications of stockholder's equity account balances for the restatement
to the equivalent shares issued for Bayport shares as a result of the merger.
Separate results for the combining entities for the most recent interim period
prior to acquisition (six months ended June 30, 1996), and for the years ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994 are as follows (amounts in thousands, except per
share data):

costs primarily include investment banking fees, legal and accounting fees,

certain non-operating properties.
8. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:
In May, 1996, the Company completed a public offering of 4,860,000
shares of the Company's common stock. Net proceeds of the common stock offering
were approximately $105,000,000. In May 1995, the Company declared a two-for-one
stock split in the form of a dividend on the $.01 par value common stock. The
split was payable to stockholders of record as of June 15, 1995, and was
distributed and effective on June 23, 1995. In April 1995, the Company completed
a public offering of Common Stock for the sale of an aggregate 3,168,500 shares
of Common Stock by the Company. Net proceeds to the Company were approximately
$50,000,000, after deducting offering costs. In March 1994, the Company
completed a public offering of Common Stock for the sale of an aggregate
4,400,000 shares of Common Stock by the Company at $13.00 per share for
aggregate net proceeds of approximately $36,317,255, after deducting related
offering costs. Also included in 1994 is the exercise of 190,000 employee stock
options at $6.00 per share for aggregate proceeds to the Company of $1,140,000,
and the issuance of underlying common shares.
27
LANDRY'S SEAFOOD RESTAURANTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
In 1993, the Company established two stock option plans (the Stock
Option Plans), as amended, pursuant to which options may be granted to eligible
employees and nonemployee directors of the Company or its subsidiaries for the
purchase of an aggregate of 2,750,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The
Stock Option Plans are administered by the Stock Option Committee of the Board
of Directors (the Committee), which determines in its discretion, the number of
shares subject to each option granted and the related purchase price, and
vesting and option periods. The Committee may grant either nonqualified stock
options or incentive stock options, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended.
In June 1995, the Company, with stockholder approval, adopted the 1995
Flexible Incentive Plan (Flex Plan) for key employees of the Company. Under the
Flex Plan, eligible employees may receive stock options, stock appreciation
rights, restricted stock, performance awards, performance stock and other
awards, as defined by the Board of Directors or an appointed committee. The
aggregate number of shares of common stock which may be issued under the Flex
Plan (or with respect to which awards may be granted) may not exceed 1,000,000
shares.
Bayport, prior to the merger, had two Incentive Stock Option Plans
under which options were granted to Bayport employees at an option price which
was equal to or in excess of the market price of the stock on the date of grant.
In addition, various non-qualified options were granted to key Bayport
employees, at an option price at least equal to the market price of the stock on
grant date. Stock options granted by Bayport were generally exercisable over two
to five year periods. Further, Bayport had issued warrants which were
exercisable through January 2002. As a result of the merger, the outstanding
options and warrants of Bayport are exercisable into common stock of Landry's at
the given merger exchange ratios.
The stock option plans are accounted for using APB Opinion No. 25, and
no compensation expense has been recorded. If compensation costs for the Company
had been determined using the alternative accounting based on the fair value
prescribed by SFAS 123, the Company's proforma net income (loss) for 1996, and
1995 would have been $(1,511,367), and $9,642,632, respectively, and the
Company's proforma earnings (loss) per share would have been $(0.06), and $0.50,
respectively. These proforma values include the following assumptions: a fair
value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for options granted during
1996 and 1995 of $9.95 and $6.16 amortization over the respective vesting
periods; no dividends; expected lives of 9.5 and 7.6 years for 1996 and 1995,
respectively; expected stock price volatility of approximately 40%, and an
interest rate of approximately 7%. These proforma results exclude consideration
of options granted prior to January 1, 1995, and may not be representative of
that to be expected in future years.
At December 31, 1996, options for 3,262,812 were outstanding (775,672
of which were exercisable) at prices ranging from $6.00 to $23.00 per share.
As of December 31, 1996, all options have been granted at the stock price on the
grant date and are generally exercisable beginning one year from the date of
grant with annual vesting periods.
Options outstanding are as follows:
1996 1995
