Financial Results
During the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017 , net sales reflected a drop of $428,278 , a decline of 12.4%, from the year ended December 27, 2015 . Due to the major remodeling of the Century City Westfield Mall , our Century City store closed on June 30, 2016 . Of the decrease in sales of $428,278 , $555,287 relates to the closure of the Century City location. The increase of $127,009 is due to the same store sales growth at the two current locations. The Topanga and Glendale stores had increased sales of 5.3% and 5.7%, respectively.
For the quarter, Glendale generated a 35% increase in same store sales versus last year to $375k , with 23% cash flow at the unit level. For the year, sales at Glendale were up 5.7% to $1.3 million , with 10% unit-level cash flow.
For the quarter, Topanga generated a 23% increase in same store sales versus last year to $310k , with 2.9% cash flow at the unit level. For the year, sales at Topanga were up 5.3% to $1.1 million , with 0.2% unit-level cash flow.
Total costs and operating expenses of $3,953,942 for the year ended January 1, 2017 , reflected a substantial drop from $5,480,307 for the year ended December 27, 2015 . The decline of $1,526,365 (28%) was due to multiple factors such as the closing of the Century City store; lower general and administrative costs; lower other operating expenses; and lower depreciation.
Cost of operations decreased by $543,460 (18%), of which $356,772 was attributable to the closing of the Century City store on June 30, 2016 . Costs of food and other operating expenses decreased, which was offset slightly by higher labor costs.
Total general and administrative costs decreased by $501,543 (36%). Again, the closing of the Century City store, contributed proportionately ($163,250) , to this decline. Additionally, non-employee stock compensation was accountable of much of the remaining difference.
Depreciation and other operating expenses declined by $127,948 (38%), which was mostlyreflected by the closing of the Century City store.
Loss from operation dropped $1,098,087 (54%) for the year ended January 1, 2017 compared to December 27, 2015 , due to the various factors previously noted, while net loss declined from $2,068,687 in the year ended December 27, 2015 , to $1,386,953 , an improvement of $681,732 (33%) due to the factors noted above.
