PART I

Item 1. Description of Business.
Overview

Good Times Restaurants Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), was organized in 1987. The Company is essentially a holding company for its wholly owned subsidiary, Good Times Drive Thru Inc., which is engaged in the business of developing, owning, operating and franchising hamburger-oriented drive-through restaurants under the name Good Times Drive Thru Burgers^(SM). During 2001, the restaurants' brand name, trademark and logo were changed to Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard to reflect a strategic repositioning of the Good Times concept. Most of the Company's restaurants are located in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area. "Good Times" where used herein refers to the operations of Good Times Drive Thru Inc. and of the Company.

Recent Developments

During fiscal 2001, the Company began implementation of frozen custard as part of a broader repositioning of the concept to Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard. The implementation was completed in early fiscal 2002 with new signage, equipment and logo graphics at every restaurant and frozen custard was part of the Company's advertising campaign throughout the year, resulting in same store sales increases of 12.4% in the first quarter, 5.0% in the second quarter, 13.3% in the third quarter and a decrease of 3.5% in the fourth quarter. Same store sales decreased 11.1% in fiscal 2003 due to: aggressive price discounting by the major fast food hamburger competitors; a general slowing of the Colorado economy; and comparisons to the prior year same store sales increases.

During fiscal 2002, the Company implemented the Operating Partner Program in order to develop more experienced and higher capacity restaurant management. Operating Partners must meet specific operating criteria and have the opportunity to share in the improvement in a restaurant's cash flow.

In July 2003 the Company introduced Coleman 100% natural beef in all of its hamburgers and changed to whole leaf lettuce, a whole grain bun on its chicken sandwiches, a new hamburger bun and new packaging. The changes are a part of the move to higher quality ingredients and more distinctive product attributes.

In November 2003 the Company engaged the Sterling Rice Group, a nationally acclaimed brand development company, to assist in refining and developing Good Times' overall brand experience in order to achieve a more defined niche in the Quick Service Restaurant category. Management anticipates that by early 2004, the project will be completed and implementation planned over the course of fiscal 2004.

The Company entered into a franchise agreement with a large regional Mexican quick service restaurant chain for the development of a co-branding test in a market outside of Good Times' Colorado market. Management anticipates the initial co-brand store will open in the spring of 2004. The objective behind the co-brand test is to develop an expansion vehicle with higher unit sales capacity and an attractive unit level return on investment for new market franchise growth outside of Colorado.

The Company redesigned its building format to include a 60 seat lobby and modified sites that were in development to accommodate the new design and format. Based upon the early sales performance of the new format, management anticipates generating higher sales than from the drive through only format.

During fiscal year 2003 the Company became a co-maker on a $2,000,000 line of credit renewable annually at the Company's discretion, to a third party entity (Smart Development, LLC), established for the purchase of land and development of new restaurants for subsequent sale in sale-leaseback transactions, some of which may be operated as company-owned restaurants and some of which may be subleased or directly leased to franchisees. The proceeds of the sale leaseback transactions will be used for the reduction of the line of credit. In addition to the land and buildings under development, the sole member of Smart Development, LLC has provided a $400,000 certificate of deposit as collateral for the line of credit. At September 30, 2003, $923,000 was outstanding under the line of credit for the development of two restaurants. Smart Development LLC is developing two restaurants for sale to a franchisee upon completion and has completed one additional restaurant sale leaseback transaction. In the unlikely event that Smart Development LLC does not execute a sale leaseback transaction, the Company may at that point be required to purchase the developed restaurant and would then establish permanent financing in place of the line of credit.

Good Times Restaurants Business

The Company currently operates and franchises a total of thirty-six Good Times restaurants, of which thirty-four are in Colorado, with thirty-two in the Denver greater metropolitan area, one in Grand Junction and one in Silverthorne. There is one franchised Good Times restaurant in Boise, Idaho and one in Laramie, Wyoming. Eleven of the restaurants are company-owned and eight are owned jointly with a co-development partner. Seventeen Good Times restaurants are franchised restaurants with twelve operating in the Denver metropolitan area, one in Grand Junction, Colorado, one in Longmont, Colorado, one in Loveland, Colorado, one in Boise, Idaho and one at the University of Wyoming in Laramie, Wyoming. Good Times is also offering franchises for the development of additional Good Times restaurants.

In fiscal 2003 the Company; 1) sold one under performing company-owned restaurant in May 2003; 2) purchased the interest in one co-developed restaurant from the joint venture partner in August 2003; 3) opened two new franchise restaurants in the Denver metropolitan area, in August and September 2003; and 4) terminated the licensing/coop agreement with the Winter Park Ski resort in July 2003. Three additional franchised restaurants are under development and the Company anticipates opening three to five total restaurants in fiscal 2004.

The Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard Concept

Good Times was initially developed as a drive-through only, limited menu hamburger restaurant concept featuring high quality products and extremely fast service, with menu prices 30-40 percent lower than the major hamburger chains. The early price advantage diminished over the last few years due to continued aggressive price discounting by the major chains and the repositioning of Good Times' menu and pricing toward higher quality.

Over the last three fiscal years, the Company has positioned its business concept away from a price point focus to one based on the development of the frozen custard category and a strong differentiation in its core hamburger menu through:

A more distinctive taste profile of its products,
Fast, attentive, friendly service
A strong brand personality built through its advertising and employee service methods, and
The highest quality ingredients in the hamburger quick service segment.

In fiscal 2001 the Company introduced fresh frozen custard, not only as an additional product category, but as a strategic repositioning of the concept with another high quality product that will complement Good Times' reputation and historical focus on high quality hamburgers. The repositioning is targeted at broadening Good Times' consumer appeal and demographic base, increasing sales in the afternoon and evening dayparts with a new snack or treat occasion and creating a more highly differentiated brand for the consumer. The repositioning involved building remodeling, new equipment, new signage and new graphics on uniforms, packaging and promotional materials in fiscal 2001 and early fiscal 2002. In late fiscal 2003, Good Times began using only Coleman 100% natural beef in all of its hamburgers and introduced fresh squeezed lemonade.

Coleman beef is raised without the use of any hormones, antibiotics or animal byproducts that are normally used in the open beef market. The Company believes that Coleman beef delivers a better tasting product and, because of the rigorous protocols and testing that are a part of the Coleman processes, also minimizes the risk of any food borne bacteria related illnesses. The Company is the only quick serve restaurant chain serving exclusively Coleman 100% natural beef.

Fresh frozen custard is a premium ice cream (requiring in excess of 10% butterfat content) with a proprietary vanilla blend that is prepared from highly specialized equipment that minimizes the amount of air that is added to the mix and that creates smaller ice crystals than other frozen dairy desserts. The custard is scooped similarly to hard-packed ice cream but is served at a slightly warmer temperature. The resulting product is smoother, creamier and thicker than typical soft serve or hard-packed ice cream products. Good Times serves the frozen custard in cups and cones, specialty sundaes and "Spoonbenders", a mix of custard and toppings, and we anticipate it will continue to become a larger percentage of sales as the Company continues to advertise the overall brand repositioning.

The Company plans to develop additional company-owned and franchised restaurants in Colorado, which is divided into two primary media markets ' Denver and Colorado Springs/Pueblo and has two building formats, one that is drive thru only with outside seating and a 2,400 square foot building with a dining room seating sixty guests. Good Times' food preparation and service systems deliver a quality meal with a faster order-delivery response time, providing the capacity to reach the same sales levels as traditional hamburger chains. Typically, a customer receives an order 30 to 60 seconds after their vehicle reaches the take-out window during peak order periods. The Company plans to implement additional improvements to its product and packaging design and quality of ingredients in fiscal 2004 with a primary focus on burgers, chicken, and frozen custard products in order to continue to differentiate the Good Times concept from the larger hamburger chains. The relatively limited menu allows maximum attention to be devoted to food quality and speed of service.

Menu

The menu of a Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard restaurant is limited to hamburgers, cheeseburgers, chicken sandwiches, french fries, onion rings, ice cream shakes, soft drinks and frozen custard products. Each menu item is made to order at the time the customer places the order and is not pre-prepared.

The hamburger patty is prepared with specially formulated and seasoned Coleman 100% natural beef, served on a 4 inch bun. Hamburgers and cheeseburgers are garnished with fresh leaf lettuce, fresh sliced sweet red onions, mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, pickles and fresh sliced tomatoes. Other specialty hamburger toppings include guacamole, fresh grilled, honey cured bacon, and proprietary sauces. The chicken products include a spiced, battered whole muscle breast patty and a grilled seasoned breast patty, both served with mayonnaise, lettuce and tomatoes on a whole grain bun and Chicken Dunkers, whole breast meat breaded strips. Equipment has been automated and equipped with compensating computers to deliver a consistent product and minimize variability in operating systems.

Fresh frozen custard is offered in cups, cones, waffle cones, specialty sundaes and "Spoonbenders", a blended combination of custard and various toppings. In addition to fresh vanilla frozen custard, management has developed several other proprietary flavors that are offered seasonally and on a rotating daily basis.

The Building

The existing double drive-through Good Times restaurants are less than one-third the size of the typical restaurant buildings of the four largest hamburger chains and require approximately two-thirds of the land area. The current standard Good Times restaurant building is a double drive-through and walk-up style structure containing approximately 880 square feet built on 18,000 to 30,000 square-foot lots. Most existing restaurants utilize a double drive-through concept that allows simultaneous service from opposite sides of the restaurant and one or two walk-up windows with a patio for outdoor eating.

Management continually examines methods to refine the floor plan and design elements of the restaurant building to gain operating efficiencies and to enhance the look and feel of the dining area for customers. The Company has developed a 2,400 square foot prototype building with a 60 seat dining room and a 1,800 square foot building with 38 seats. After the implementation of frozen custard in fiscal 2002, the Company modified the building design for new restaurants to improve the service and functionality for customers purchasing frozen custard. Management anticipates new restaurants will be a 2,400 square foot building with a 60 seat dining room on 25,000 - 35,000 square feet lots located on high visibility, retail sites.

Management believes that the building form, design and aesthetic appeal address key issues and concerns of the consumer: speed, cleanliness, security, eye appeal, and an identifiable brand image. The exterior of the drive through only building consists of a cream-colored dry-vit system with an enclosed glass vestibule at the front for walk-up service. A brightly lit multi-colored fascia band runs the length of both sides of the building in addition to product and Good Times' proprietary signage. The double drive-through buildings are transportable and therefore can be moved from an unsuccessful site to a better location. Future buildings may be "stick built" on-site for greater cost efficiency, limiting our ability to relocate these stores. The new lobby seating model is a stone and dry-vit exterior with panelized proprietary facias and brightly lit awnings.

Management performs extensive site evaluation and expects a minimum number of buildings will ever have to be moved. However, one Good Times unit was relocated from a development condemned under eminent domain proceedings in 1999 and one franchise-owned building was relocated to a new site in fiscal 2001.

Plan of Operation

The Company's primary objective for fiscal 2004 is to stabilize its same store sales trends by continuing to reposition its business concept away from direct competition with the large national hamburger chains through the development and promotion of fresh frozen custard, highly differentiated taste profiles of its sandwiches and other core menu product and packaging improvements to drive increased consumer satisfaction. This repositioning is intended to build on the substantial brand equity that Good Times has in product quality and taste in its core menu of hamburgers and fries and to more definitively differentiate and integrate the Good Times brand experience.

The Company's other objectives for fiscal 2004 are to:

Improve customer value by offering a wide range of menu pricing,
Continue the development of additional company-owned and franchised restaurants in Colorado based on the availability of sites and financing,
Introduce limited new menu offerings,
Develop product quality enhancements to continue to leverage Good Times' brand position based on superior taste and high quality ingredients,
Reinvest in existing restaurants to freshen the exterior appearance,
Develop the co-brand test out of our core market and evaluate its viability for out of market growth and,
Improve overall customer satisfaction measures through enhanced management and training processes.

Good Times' ongoing objective is to stabilize and increase average restaurant sales through increased customer counts in each primary daypart (lunch, dinner and late-night), selective menu and price promotions and effective marketing of Good Times' competitive attributes of high quality products, unique taste profiles and demonstrable value. The Company expects modest product price increases in 2004 due to anticipated higher commodity costs.

Colorado is divided into two primary media markets, Denver and Colorado Springs/Pueblo. The Company has plans to fully develop the Denver market and then develop the Colorado Springs/Pueblo market, depending on availability of financing and suitable restaurant sites. Management estimates that the Denver market will support 45-55 Good Times restaurants and the Colorado Springs/Pueblo market will support 10-12 restaurants. Media advertising is important to effectively build brand awareness and the repositioning of the concept. All of our growth for fiscal 2004 and 2005 will be focused in Colorado to increase media and supervision efficiencies.

As of December 16, 2003, the Company operated nineteen company-owned and joint venture Good Times restaurants and had fifteen franchised restaurants open in Colorado, one in Boise, Idaho and one in Laramie, Wyoming.

	December 16, 2002	December 16, 2003
Company-owned restaurants	11	11
Joint venture restaurants	9	8
Franchise operated restaurants	16	17
Total restaurants	36	36

Management anticipates that Good Times and its franchisees will begin development of a total of five to seven Good Times units in Colorado in 2004 depending on site and financing availability.

Operations and Management

Good Times has defined three additional ingredients essential to its success:

Consistent delivery of high quality, great tasting products that are proprietary whenever possible,
Superior levels of friendly, fast service, and
Competitive pricing.

The order system at each Good Times restaurant is equipped with an internal timing device that displays and records the time each order takes to prepare and deliver. The total transaction time for the delivery of food at the window is approximately 30 to 60 seconds during peak times.

Each Good Times unit employs an operating partner or a general manager, one to two assistant managers and approximately 15 to 25 employees, most of who work part-time during three shifts. Operating systems and training materials are utilized to ensure consistent performance to Good Times' standards. An eight to ten week training program is utilized to train restaurant managers on all phases of the operation. Ongoing training is provided as necessary. Management of Good Times believes that incentive compensation of its restaurant managers is essential to the success of its business. Accordingly, in addition to a salary, managerial employees may be paid a bonus based upon proficiency in meeting financial, customer service and quality performance objectives. The Operating Partner Program was introduced in fiscal 2002 whereby a store Operating Partner may earn 25% of a restaurant's improvement in cash flow over a base year.

The Company uses several sources of customer feedback to evaluate each restaurant's service and quality performance, including an extensive, computerized secret shopper program, a computerized monthly telephone survey of fifty customers per restaurant, customer comment phone line, telephone surveys and web site comments. Additionally, management uses both its own primary consumer research for product development and customer usage and attitude patterns as well as third party market research that evaluates Good Times' performance ratings on several different operating attributes against key competitors.

The Company currently purchases 100% of its restaurant food and paper supplies from Yancey's Food Service. The Company does not believe that the current reliance on this sole vendor will have any long-term material adverse effect since the Company believes that there are a sufficient number of other suppliers from which food and paper supplies could be purchased. The Company does not anticipate any difficulty in continuing to obtain an adequate quantity of food and paper supplies of acceptable quality and at acceptable prices.

Financial and management control is maintained through the use of automated data processing and centralized accounting and management information systems that are provided by the Company. Restaurant managers forward sales reports, vendor invoices, payroll data and other operating information to Good Times' headquarters weekly and sales, labor and cash data is collected daily via an automated "polling" of each restaurant's point-of-sale system. Management receives daily, weekly and monthly reports identifying food, labor and operating expenses and other significant indicators of restaurant performance. Management of Good Times believes that these reporting systems enhance its ability to control and manage operations.

Marketing and Advertising

In recent years, the Company has been limited to utilizing radio as its primary media for advertising due to increasing costs of television advertising in the Denver area. Management believes that television advertising is important to successfully complete the repositioning of the concept, increase trials of its frozen custard products and increase the overall audience for its advertising. As additional restaurants are added in Colorado, the Company's ability to support television advertising is expected to increase. Each franchised and company-owned restaurant contributes an equal percentage of net sales to an advertising cooperative for the implementation of media advertising and promotions.

Signage is one of the most important elements for establishing identity at each location. The Good Times restaurant sign package that has been developed offers flexibility based on local codes, site layout and surrounding property. The Company's signage, logos and graphics for all restaurants were revised in fiscal 2001 and 2002 to support the strategic repositioning of the brand to Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard.

Franchise Program

Good Times has prepared prototype area rights and franchise agreements, a Uniform Franchise Offering Circular and advertising material to be utilized in soliciting prospective franchisees. Good Times seeks to attract franchisees that are experienced restaurant operators, well capitalized and have demonstrated the ability to develop multiple restaurants. Good Times currently reviews sites selected for franchises and monitors performance of franchise units. Good Times is currently considering potential franchisees only for development of units in Colorado and has developed a single unit, owner-operator franchise agreement in addition to its traditional franchise agreement.

Good Times estimates that it will cost a franchisee on average approximately $575,000 to $675,000 to open a Good Times drive-through restaurant, and $700,000 - $800,000 to open a restaurant with dining room seating, including pre-opening costs and working capital, assuming the land is leased. A franchisee typically will pay a royalty of 4% of net sales, an advertising fee of at least 0.5% of net sales, plus participation in regional advertising up to 5% of net sales, or a higher amount approved by the advertising cooperative, and initial development and franchise fees totaling $25,000 per restaurant. Among the services and materials which Good Times provides to franchisees are site selection assistance, plans and specifications for construction of the Good Times Drive Thru restaurants, an operating manual which includes product specifications and quality control procedures, training, on-site opening supervision and advice from time to time relating to operation of the franchised restaurant.

Good Times has entered into fourteen franchise agreements in the greater Denver metropolitan area. Fourteen franchise restaurants and eight joint-venture restaurants are operating in the Denver metropolitan area media market. One franchise restaurant is open in Grand Junction, Colorado, one in Boise, Idaho and one in Laramie, Wyoming. Two multi-unit franchise development agreements were entered into during fiscal 2002 for the development of eleven restaurants in the Colorado Springs market and two in the Denver area.

Employees

At December 16, 2003, the Company had approximately 305 employees of which 145 are part time employees and 160 are full-time employees. The Company considers its employee relations to be good. None of its employees is covered by a collective bargaining agreement.

Competition

The restaurant industry, including the fast food segment, is highly competitive. Good Times competes with a large number of other hamburger-oriented fast food restaurants in the areas in which it operates. Many of these restaurants are owned and operated by regional and national restaurant chains, many of which have greater financial resources and experience than does the Company. Restaurant companies that currently compete with Good Times in the Denver market include McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Carl's Jr. and Sonic. Double drive-through restaurant chains such as Rally's Hamburgers and Checker's Drive-In Restaurants, which currently operate a total of over 800 double drive-through restaurants in various markets in the United States, are not currently operating in Colorado. Management of Good Times believes that these double drive-through restaurant chains will not expand into Colorado based on their publicly reported objectives and resources. However, the Company cannot assure you that they will not enter the Colorado market and become significant competitors of Good Times.

Management of Good Times believes that it may have a competitive advantage in terms of quality of product compared to traditional fast food hamburger chains. However, price discounting by the major fast food hamburger chains has had a detrimental effect on Good Times' customer transactions in fiscal 2003. Early development of its double drive-through concept in Colorado has given Good Times an advantage over other double drive-through chains that may seek to expand into Colorado because of Good Times' brand awareness and present restaurant locations. Nevertheless, Good Times may be at a competitive disadvantage with other restaurant chains with greater name recognition and marketing capability. Furthermore, most of Good Times' competitors in the fast-food business operate more restaurants, have been established longer and have greater financial resources and name recognition than Good Times. There is also active competition for management personnel, as well as for attractive commercial real estate sites suitable for restaurants.

Trademarks

Good Times has registered its mark "Good Times! Drive Thru Burgers"(SM) with the State of Colorado and intends to register that mark in each state where it or a franchisee intends to open a restaurant. Good Times has also registered its new mark "Good Times Burgers & Frozen Custard" federally and with the State of Colorado. Good Times received approval of its federal registration of "Good Times" in 2003.

In addition we own trademarks or service marks that have been registered, or for which applications are pending, with the United States Patent and Trademark Office including but not limited to: "Mighty Deluxe", "Wild Fries" and "Chicken Dunkers".

Government Regulation

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

Good Times is also subject to federal and state laws regulating franchise operations, which vary from registration and disclosure requirements in the offer and sale of franchises to the application of statutory standards regulating franchise relationships.

Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this Form 10-KSB under "Item 1. Description of Business," "Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this Form 10-KSB constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. When we use the words such as "believes", "expects", "anticipates" or similar expressions, we are making forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors such as the risk factors discussed below which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Risk Factors

You should consider carefully the following risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to Good Times Restaurants securities.

We Have Accumulated Losses. We have incurred losses in every fiscal year since inception except 1999 and 2002 and as of September 30, 2003 we had an accumulated deficit of $9,453,000. As of September 30, 2003, we had working capital of $690,000.

We Must Sustain Same Store Sales Increases. As we develop additional restaurants, we expect that the increase in operating income generated by those restaurants will improve our financial results. However, we cannot assure you that we will achieve profitability on a consistent basis. We must sustain same store sales increases in existing restaurants to achieve profitability. Sales increases will depend in part on the success of our advertising and promotion of new and existing menu items and the consumer acceptance of the concept repositioning. We cannot assure you that our advertising and promotional efforts will in fact be successful.

The Hamburger Restaurant Market Is Highly Competitive. The hamburger restaurant market is highly competitive. Our competitors include many recognized national and regional fast-food hamburger restaurant chains such as McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, Carl's Jr. and Sonic. We also compete with small regional and local hamburger and other fast-food restaurants, many of which feature drive-through service. Most of our competitors have greater financial resources, marketing programs and name recognition. All of the major hamburger chains have increasingly offered selected food items and combination meals at discounted prices and have recently intensified their promotions of value priced meals. Continued discounting by competitors may adversely affect the revenues and profitability of our restaurants.

Sites May Be Difficult To Acquire. Location of our restaurants in high-traffic and readily accessible areas is an important factor for our success. Drive-through restaurants require sites with specific characteristics and there are a limited number of suitable sites available in our geographic markets. Since suitable locations are in great demand, we may not be able to obtain optimal sites at a reasonable cost. In addition, we cannot assure you that the sites we do obtain will be successful.

We May Require Additional Financing. In order to fully develop the Denver and Colorado Springs/Pueblo markets and to expand into markets outside of Colorado, we will require additional financing. Although we have recently obtained debt facilities for the borrowing of additional capital, we cannot assure you that these facilities will adequately finance our planned developments or that additional financing will be available on reasonable terms.

We Depend on Key Management Employees. We believe our current operations and future success depend largely on the continued services of our management employees, in particular Boyd E. Hoback, our president and chief executive officer. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Hoback, he may voluntarily terminate his employment with us at any time. In addition, we do not maintain key-person insurance on Mr. Hoback's life. The loss of Mr. Hoback's services, or other key management personnel, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our Board Of Directors Has Adopted A Shareholder Rights Plan. The plan makes it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us without approval of the board of directors, even if the acquisition would be at a premium to the market price of our common stock. In addition, our articles of incorporation authorize the board of directors to issue without shareholder approval up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The issuance of preferred stock could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us.

Our Nasdaq Listing Is Important. Our common stock is currently listed for trading on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. The Nasdaq maintenance rules require among other things that our common stock price remains above $1.00 per share and that we have minimum net tangible assets in excess of $2 million. We were required to obtain shareholder approval in 1998 for a reverse stock split to maintain a sufficient per share price to preserve our Nasdaq listing.

You are cautioned that the risk factors discussed above are not exhaustive.

Item 2. Description of Property.

The Company currently leases approximately 3,350 square feet of space for its executive offices in Golden, Colorado for approximately $45,000 per year. The lease is for a three year term ending April 2005. The space is leased from The Bailey Company, a significant stockholder of the Company, at their corporate headquarters.

As of December 16, 2003, Good Times has an ownership interest in nineteen Good Times units, all of which are located in Colorado. Eight of these restaurants are held in joint venture limited partnerships of which Good Times is the general partner and has a 50% interest in seven of the partnership restaurants and a 78% interest in one partnership restaurant. There are eleven Good Times units that are wholly owned by Good Times.

Most existing Good Times restaurants are free-standing structures containing approximately 880 square feet (except for three conversions of other fast food restaurants that are 1,700-2,500 square feet, one conversion of a double drive-through building to one of 1,900 square feet with seating, two prototype 2,300 square foot buildings with seating and one prototype 1,800 square foot building with seating) situated on lots of approximately 18,000 to 30,000 square feet. Certain restaurants serve as collateral for the underlying debt financing arrangements as discussed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report. Good Times intends to acquire new sites both through ground leases and purchase agreements supported by mortgage and leasehold financing arrangements and through sale leaseback agreements.

All of the restaurants are regularly maintained by the Company's repair and maintenance staff as well as by outside contractors, when necessary. Management believes that all of its properties are in good condition and that there will not be a need for significant capital expenditures to maintain the operational and aesthetic integrity of the Company's properties for the foreseeable future, other than recurring maintenance and periodic capital improvements. All of the Company's properties are covered up to replacement cost under its insurance policies and in the opinion of management are adequately covered by insurance.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

The Company is not involved in any material legal proceedings. The Company is subject to various lawsuits in the normal course of business. These lawsuits are not expected to have a material impact on the Company.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003.

Dividend Policy

The Company has never paid dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company has obtained financing under loan agreements that restrict the payment of dividends. The Company's ability to pay future dividends will necessarily depend on its earnings and financial condition. However, since restaurant development is capital intensive, the Company currently intends to retain any earnings for that purpose.

Disclosure with Respect to the Company's Equity Compensation Plans

The Company maintains the 2001 Good Times Restaurants Stock Option Plan, pursuant to which it may grant equity awards to eligible persons, and has outstanding stock options granted under its 1992 Incentive Stock Option Plan and 1992 Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan. In addition, in 1999 the Company issued a warrant to a significant Shareholder for the purchase of 25,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share. The warrant expires March 31, 2004. For additional information, see Note 10, Stock-Based Compensation, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.

Results of Operations
Net Revenues

Net revenues for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003 decreased $2,057,000 (11.7%) to $15,479,000 from $17,536,000 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002. Same store restaurant sales decreased $1,756,000 or 11.1%, during fiscal 2003 for restaurants that were open for the full fiscal 2002 and 2003 periods. Restaurant sales decreased $44,000 due to one company-owned restaurant in Silverthorne, Colorado and $272,000 due to one company-owned restaurant that was sold in May 2003. Net revenues increased $15,000 in fiscal 2003 due to a $75,000 increase in franchise fees offset by a $60,000 decrease in franchise royalties.

Same store restaurant sales were negatively impacted in fiscal 2003 by the following: 1) in the prior year period same store sales had increased 5.8% due primarily to the introduction of the frozen custard product; 2) in mid-March 2003 the Denver metropolitan area sustained a severe blizzard which resulted in an estimated $100,000 loss in sales as all restaurants were closed for approximately two to three days; 3) heavy discounting within the fast food industry; and, 4) a general decline in the overall economy.

Total restaurant sales for Good Times and its franchisees were $25,139,000 for fiscal 2003 compared to $27,887,000 for fiscal 2002.

Average restaurant gross sales for fiscal 2002 and 2003 were as follows:

	Fiscal 2002	Fiscal 2003
Company operated	$921,000	$816,000
Franchise operated	$836,000	$736,000
System total	$888,000	$784,000

Food and Paper Costs

Food and paper costs for fiscal 2003 decreased $691,000 from $5,481,000 (32% of restaurant sales) to $4,790,000 (31.8% of restaurant sales). Food and paper costs decreased as a percentage of restaurant sales primarily due to reduced discounting by the Company while beef costs rose to historic highs, increasing 38% from October 1, 2002 to October 1, 2003. Management anticipates beef costs will begin to decline in mid 2004 based upon industry projections and the lifting of the Canadian beef embargo.

Labor, Occupancy and Other Expenses

For fiscal 2003 labor, occupancy and other expenses decreased $369,000 from $7,866,000 (45.9% of restaurant sales) to $7,497,000 (49.8% of restaurant sales), compared to fiscal 2002. The $369,000 decrease in labor, occupancy and other expenses is primarily attributable to the decrease in restaurant sales of $2,072,000 as labor expenses decrease as sales decrease. The increase in labor, occupancy and other expenses as a percentage of restaurant sales is attributable to:

The largely fixed nature of these expenses, as sales decrease the percentage of these expenses to restaurant sales increases,
An increase in the average wages for restaurant employees of approximately 1.1%,
Property tax expense increase of $18,000 due to an increase in equipment values,

Bank fees increase of $14,000 due to a greater number of customer transactions using credit cards, and
Building, property and liability insurance expense increase of $39,000 due to increases in the insurance market as a whole.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses

For fiscal 2003 depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $75,000 from $1,004,000 to $929,000, compared to fiscal 2002. Depreciation expense decreased due to the aging of the Company's capital assets, as well as the sale of one company-owned restaurant in May 2003.

Income from Restaurant Operations

For fiscal 2003 income from restaurant operations was $2,263,000 compared to $3,185,000 for fiscal 2002. Income from restaurant operations as a percentage of restaurant sales was 15.0% for fiscal 2003, a decrease from 18.6% for fiscal 2002. Cash flow from restaurant operations (income from restaurant operations plus depreciation, opening expenses and accretion of deferred rent) as a percentage of restaurant sales was 21.3% for fiscal 2003 compared to 24.7% for fiscal 2002.

The decrease in both income and cash flow from restaurants as a percentage of restaurant sales for fiscal 2003 was primarily a result of the decrease in same store sales in the current period. Income from restaurant operations reflects regional supervision, opening expenses and accretion of deferred rent of $320,000 for fiscal 2003 and $332,000 for fiscal 2002.

Other Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $2,300,000 (13.4% of restaurant sales) in fiscal 2002 to $2,141,000 (14.2% of restaurant sales) in fiscal 2003. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses is partially attributable to decreased advertising expenses, which decreased to $984,000 (6.5% of restaurant sales) for fiscal 2003 from $1,087,000 (6.3% of restaurant sales) for fiscal 2002, as well as a decrease in general and administrative expenses, which decreased to $1,157,000 (7.7% of restaurant sales) for fiscal 2003 from $1,213,000 (7.1% of restaurant sales) for fiscal 2002.

Management anticipates that fiscal 2004 advertising will consist primarily of radio advertising, potential television advertising, on-site and point of purchase merchandising totaling approximately 6% - 7% of restaurant sales.

Loss (gain) or disposal of restaurants and equipment decreased $92,000 to ($89,000) from $3,000 in fiscal 2002. The $89,000 gain on disposal of restaurants and equipment is primarily due to the sale of one company-owned restaurant in May 2003.

Income from Operations

Income from operations decreased to $211,000 in fiscal 2003 compared to $882,000 in fiscal 2002. This decrease was attributable to the decrease in income from restaurant operations, offset by the decrease in other operating expenses for fiscal 2003.

Net Income (Loss)

Net loss was ($232,000) for fiscal 2003 compared to net income of $248,000 in fiscal 2002. The change from fiscal 2002 to fiscal 2003 was primarily attributable to the decrease in income from operations for fiscal 2003 of $671,000. In addition, 1) minority interest expense decreased $205,000 due to decreased income from restaurant operations of the joint venture restaurants for fiscal 2003; 2) net interest expense decreased $43,000 to $80,000 from $123,000 in fiscal 2002 due to reduced debt in the current period; and 3) other expenses increased $57,000 to $136,000 from $79,000 in fiscal 2002. The $57,000 increase in other expenses is primarily attributable to a $29,000 expense related to a restaurant sublease in Las Vegas, Nevada; an increase in franchise expense due to support costs for the opening of two new franchise restaurants; and a $22,000 expense related to a write down in the holding value of land.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and Working Capital

As of September 30, 2003, the Company had $1,480,000 of cash on hand. The Company currently plans to use the cash balance and cash generated from operations for increasing the Company's working capital reserves and, along with additional debt financing, for the development of new company-owned restaurants. Management believes that the current cash on hand and additional cash expected from operations in fiscal 2004 will be sufficient to cover the Company's working capital requirements for fiscal 2004.

As of September 30, 2003, the Company had working capital of $690,000. Because restaurant sales are collected in cash and accounts payable for food and paper products are paid two to four weeks later, restaurant companies often operate with working capital deficits. The Company anticipates that working capital deficits will be incurred in the future as new Good Times restaurants are opened.

In May 2003, the Company sold one under performing co-owned restaurant for $857,000 (net of closing costs). Proceeds of the sale were used to reduce debt by $593,000 and increase working capital by $264,000.

Capital Expenditures

The Company is currently negotiating purchase and lease agreements for additional company-owned and franchise restaurants and is negotiating debt and sale leaseback financing for the development of those restaurants. Additionally, management anticipates upgrading several of the Company's point of sale systems and implementing a new management information system (MIS). A portion of the MIS and point of sale capital expenditures will be funded from cash flow from operations and a portion from debt or lease financing.

Financing Transactions

In January 2002 the Company secured $175,000 in debt financing through GE Capital for the purpose of lending these funds to the Company's franchisees to purchase signage related to the frozen custard implementation. Through September 30, 2003 the Company had loaned all of the $175,000 to five separate franchisees. The Company has secured and personally guaranteed notes receivable from each franchisee bearing a higher rate of interest than the Company is obligated to pay under the GE Capital note.

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities was $707,000 for fiscal 2003 compared to $1,155,000 in fiscal 2002. The decreased net cash provided by operating activities for fiscal 2003 was the result of a decrease in the net income (loss) to ($232,000) and non-cash reconciling items totaling $939,000 (comprised principally of depreciation and amortization of $950,000, minority interest of $227,000, a gain on the disposal of property of $86,000, and decreases in operating assets and liabilities totaling $152,000).

Net cash used in investing activities in fiscal 2002 was $949,000, which reflects payments for the purchase of property and equipment of $807,000, and loans made to franchisees (net of payments received) of $142,000. In fiscal 2002 capital expenditures related to the implementation of frozen custard were $525,000 and capital expenditures related to preliminary site costs for new stores were $205,000.

Net cash provided by investing activities in fiscal 2003 was $448,000, which reflects payments for the purchase of property and equipment of $182,000, proceeds from the sale of assets of $383,000, proceeds from the sale of investments of $201,000 and payments received on loans made to franchisees of $46,000.

Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2002 was $436,000, which includes principal payments on notes payable and long term debt of $278,000, net repayments on lines of credit of $132,000, borrowings on notes payable and long-term debt of $447,000, distributions to minority interests in partnerships of $564,000, contributions from minority interests in partnerships of $64,000 and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $27,000.

Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2003 was $646,000, which includes principal payments on notes payable and long term debt of $258,000, net repayments on lines of credit of $137,000, distributions (net of contributions) to minority interests in partnerships of $340,000 and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $89,000.

Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company remains contingently liable on one Las Vegas restaurant lease. Management anticipates minimal future losses from the Las Vegas lease contingency. The Company is also contingently liable on several ground leases and one land and building lease that have been subleased or assigned to franchisees. The Company has never experienced any losses nor does it anticipate any future losses from these contingent lease liabilities. The Company is also a guarantor on a Small Business Administration loan to a franchisee of approximately $295,000.

The Company is a co-maker on a $2,000,000 line of credit to a third party entity, established for the purchase of land and development of new restaurants for subsequent sale in sale-leaseback transactions, some of which may then be operated as company-owned restaurants and some of which may be subleased to franchisees. The proceeds of the sale leaseback transactions will be used for the reduction of the line of credit. In addition to the land and buildings under development, the sole member of Smart Development, LLC has provided a $400,000 certificate of deposit as collateral for the line of credit. At September 30, 2003, $923,000 was outstanding for the development of two restaurants. For additional information, see the "Recent Developments" section of Item 1.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company evaluates the collectability of its note receivables from franchisees. Historically, such amounts have been fully repaid and the Company believes the collateral and guarantees are adequate to provide for future payments; therefore no allowance for amounts estimated to be uncollected have been provided. The Company also periodically reviews its long-term assets for potential impairment as well as their estimated remaining life. Historically, the Company has not been required to impair its long-term assets nor revise their estimated life, however, the restaurant industry is extremely competitive and the Company continues to be responsive to changes in its operating environment. Therefore such estimates are considered significant and subject to change.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No.148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ' Transition and Disclosure ' An Amendment of FASB Statement 123 (SFAS 123). For entities that change their accounting for stock-based compensation from the intrinsic method to the fair value method under SFAS 123, the fair value method is to be applied prospectively to those awards granted after the beginning of the period of adoption (the prospective method). The amendment permits two additional transition methods for adoption of the fair value method. In addition to the prospective method, the entity can choose to either (i) restate all periods presented (retroactive restatement method) or (ii) recognize compensation cost from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption as if the fair value method had been used to account for awards (modified prospective method). For fiscal years beginning December 15, 2003, the prospective method will no longer be allowed. The Company currently accounts for its stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method as proscribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and plans on continuing using this method to account for stock options , therefore, it does not intend to adopt the transition requirements as specified in SFAS 148. The Company has adopted the new SFAS 148 disclosure requirements in these financial statements.

SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity, was issued in May 2003 and requires issuers to classify as liabilities (or assets in some circumstances) three classes of freestanding financial instruments that embody obligations for the issuer. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and is otherwise effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Management believes the adoption of SFAS No. 150 will have no immediate impact on its financial position or results of operations.

The FASB issued Interpretation ("FIN") No. 45, Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, in November 2002 and FIN No. 46, Consolidation of variable Interest Entities, in January 2003. FIN No. 45 is applicable on a prospective basis for initial recognition and measurement provisions to guarantees issued after December 2002; however, disclosure requirements are effective immediately. FIN No. 45 requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligations undertaken in issuing the guarantee and expands the required disclosures to be made by the guarantor about its obligation under certain guarantees that it has issued. The adoption of FIN No. 45 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. FIN No. 46 requires that a company that controls another entity through interest other than voting interest should consolidate such controlled entity in all cases for interim periods beginning after June 15, 2003. Management does not believe the adoption of FIN No. 46 will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Organization ' Good Times Restaurants Inc. (Good Times or the Company) is a Nevada corporation. The Company operates through its wholly owned subsidiary Good Times Drive Thru Inc. (Drive Thru).

Drive Thru commenced operations in 1986 and, as of September 30, 2003, operates 19 company-owned and joint venture drive-thru fast food hamburger restaurants. The Company's restaurants are located in Colorado. In addition, Drive Thru has 15 franchises operating in Colorado, one in Laramie, Wyoming, and one in Boise, Idaho, and is offering franchises for development of additional Drive Thru restaurants.

Principles of Consolidation ' The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Good Times, its subsidiary and certain limited partnerships that are approximately 50% owned, in which the Company exercises control as general partner. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated. The unrelated limited partners' equity of each partnership has been recorded as minority interest in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Opening Costs ' Opening costs are expensed as incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents ' The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventories ' Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, determined by the first-in, first-out method, and consist of restaurant food items and related paper supplies.

Property and Equipment 'Depreciation is recognized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lives of the related leases, if shorter, as follows:

Building	15 years
Leasehold improvements	7-15 years
Fixtures and equipment	3-8 years

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and expenditures for major improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired, or otherwise disposed of, the property accounts are relieved of costs and accumulated depreciation with any resulting gain or loss credited or charged to income.

Impairment ' The Company follows SFAS No. 144, when assessing properties for impairment. The undiscounted cash flows are compared to the net book value on a restaurant-by-restaurant basis. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the net book value, the restaurant is written down to its fair market value.

F-8

Sales of Restaurants and Restaurant Equity Interests ' Sales of restaurants or non-controlling equity interests in restaurants developed by the Company are accounted for under the full accrual method or the installment method. Under the full accrual method, gain is not recognized until the collectibility of the sales price is reasonably assured and the earnings process is virtually complete without further contingencies. When a sale does not meet the requirements for income recognition, gain is deferred until those requirements are met. Under the installment method, gain is recognized as principal payments on the related notes receivable are collected.

Deferred Liabilities ' Rent expense is reflected on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease for all leases containing step-ups in base rent. An obligation representing future payments (which totaled $391,000 as of September 30, 2003) has been reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as a deferred liability. The remaining balance includes a deferred gain of $36,000 on the sale of a restaurant, and deferred franchise development fees of $60,000.

Advertising ' The Company incurs advertising expense in connection with marketing of its restaurant operations. Advertising costs are expensed the first time the advertising takes place.

Franchise and Area Development Fees ' Individual franchise fee revenue is deferred when received and is recognized as income when the Company has substantially performed all of its obligations under the franchise agreement and the franchisee has commenced operations. Area development fees and related direct expenses are recognized ratably upon opening of the applicable restaurants. Continuing royalties from franchisees, which are a percentage of the gross sales of franchised operations, are recognized as income when earned. Franchise development expenses, which consist primarily of legal costs and restaurant opening expenses associated with developing and opening franchise restaurants, are expensed against the related franchise fee income.

Statement of Cash Flows 'For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Income Taxes ' Income taxes are provided for in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS No. 109 requires an asset and liability approach in the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share ' The income (loss) per share is presented in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

F-9

Financial Instruments and Concentrations of Credit Risk 'Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted. Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off balance sheet) that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers or counterparties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly effected by changes in economic or other conditions. Financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk to the Company include lease liabilities whereby the Company is contingently liable as a guarantor of certain leases that were assigned to third parties in connection with various sales of restaurants to franchisees (see Note 4).

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and receivables. At September 30, 2003, notes receivable totaled $612,000 and were from seven entities. Additionally, the Company has other current receivables of $190,000, which includes $46,000 of current franchise receivables.

The Company purchases 100% of its restaurant food and paper from one vendor. The Company believes that there are a sufficient number of other suppliers from which food and paper could be purchased to prevent any long-term adverse consequences.

The Company operates in one industry segment, restaurants. A geographic concentration exists because the Company's customers are generally located in the State of Colorado.

The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The carrying amounts of all the Company's financial instruments approximate fair value as a result of the short-term maturities or interest rates that approximate the Company's current expected borrowing and lending rates.

Comprehensive Income (Loss) 'Comprehensive income includes net income or loss, changes in certain assets and liabilities that are reported directly in equity such as adjustments resulting from unrealized gains or losses on held to maturity investments. The Company's comprehensive income (loss) was equal to its net income (loss) for all periods presented in these financial statements.

Accounting Estimates'The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and the accompanying notes. The actual results could differ from those estimates.

F-10

Stock-Based Compensation Disclosures - The Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock options and warrants which are granted to employees. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for grants of options and warrants to employees since the exercise prices were not less than the fair value of the Company's common stock on the grant dates. Had compensation cost been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share would have been changed to the pro forma amounts indicated below.

	Year Ended September 30,
	2003	2002
Net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders:
As reported	$(232,000)	$248,000
Pro forma expense	(176,000)	(225,000)
Pro forma net income	(408,000)	23,000
Net income (loss) per common share:
As reported	$(.10)	$.11
Pro forma	(.18)	.01

The fair value of each employee option granted in 2003 and 2002 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

	Year Ended September 30,
	2003	2002

Expected volatility	80%	104%
Risk-free interest rate	3.7%	5%
Expected dividends	'	'
Expected terms (in years)	5-10	3-5

Reclassification ' Certain reclassifications have been made to conform 2002 financial statements to the presentation in 2003. The reclassifications had no effect on net income.

F-11

New Accounting Pronouncements 'In December 2002, the FASB issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No.148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ' Transition and Disclosure ' An Amendment of FASB Statement 123 (SFAS 123). For entities that change their accounting for stock-based compensation from the intrinsic method to the fair value method under SFAS 123, the fair value method is to be applied prospectively to those awards granted after the beginning of the period of adoption (the prospective method). The amendment permits two additional transition methods for adoption of the fair value method. In addition to the prospective method, the entity can choose to either (i) restate all periods presented (retroactive restatement method) or (ii) recognize compensation cost from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption as if the fair value method had been used to account for awards (modified prospective method). For fiscal years beginning December 15, 2003, the prospective method will no longer be allowed. The Company currently accounts for its stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method as proscribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and plans on continuing using this method to account for stock options , therefore, it does not intend to adopt the transition requirements as specified in SFAS 148. The Company has adopted the new SFAS 148 disclosure requirements in these financial statements.
