ARK RESTAURANTS CORP. (NASDAQ:ARKR) Files An 8-K Results of Operations and Financial Condition
Item 2.02

On December 19, 2018, Ark Restaurants Corp. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing financial results for the fourth fiscal quarter and fiscal year ended September 29, 2018. A copy of the press release titled “Ark Restaurants Announces Financial Results for the Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year Ended 2018” is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The press release contains certain non-GAAP Disclosures such as EBITDA-Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and EBITDA from restaurant operations as adjusted for non-controlling interests, non-cash stock option expense and a gain on the sale of real estate. Although EBITDA is not a measure of performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company believes the use of this non-GAAP financial measure enhances an overall understanding of the Company’s past financial performance, as well as providing useful information to the investor because of its historical use by the Company as both a performance measure and measure of liquidity, and the use of EBITDA by virtually all companies in the restaurant sector as a measure of both performance and liquidity.

This information is intended to be furnished under this Item 2.02 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
