  • The restaurant industry is highly competitive.
  • The company has incurred operating losses and may not be profitable in the future.

Future Outlook

Management Comments
  • Yoshiharu is a fast-growing Japanese restaurant operator and was borne out of the idea of introducing the modernized Japanese dining experience to customers all over the world.
  • Our mission is to bring our Japanese ramen and cuisine to the mainstream, by providing a meal that customers find comforting.
Industry Context

The company operates in the large and rapidly growing Asian cuisine market, with widespread consumer appetite across many demographics. This grants the company the opportunity to expand in both existing and new U.S. markets, as well as internationally.

Comparison to Industry Standards
  • It is difficult to compare Yoshiharu's results directly to industry standards without more specific information on comparable companies.
  • However, some publicly traded restaurant companies that specialize in Asian cuisine include P.F. Chang's China Bistro, Inc. and Noodles & Company.
  • These companies may serve as benchmarks for revenue growth, operating margins, and other financial metrics.
  • For example, Noodles & Company reported a revenue increase of 7.3% in Q1 2024, while Yoshiharu's revenue increased by 24.9%.
  • However, Noodles & Company also reported a net income of $1.2 million, while Yoshiharu reported a net loss of $1.42 million.
  • This suggests that Yoshiharu may need to improve its cost management and profitability to align with industry standards.
Stakeholder Impact
  • Shareholders face increased risk due to the widening net loss and material weaknesses in internal controls.
  • Employees may be affected by potential cost-cutting measures to improve profitability.
  • Customers may benefit from the company's growth strategy and new menu offerings.
  • Suppliers may see increased business as the company expands, but also face potential pressure on pricing.
  • Creditors face increased risk due to the company's financial challenges and potential repurchase obligations.
Next Steps
  • The company needs to improve its cost management and profitability.
  • The company needs to address the material weaknesses in its internal controls.
  • The company needs to register the shares related to recent private placements and warrant subscriptions to avoid repurchase obligations.
  • The company needs to continue to pursue its growth strategy and explore new revenue streams.
  • The company needs to monitor its liquidity and capital resources to ensure it can meet its obligations.
Related Party Transactions
  • From time to time, the Company loaned money to APIIS Financial Group, a company owned by James Chae, who is also the majority stockholder and CEO of the Company.
  • For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the compensation to James Chae was $ 42,154 , respectively.
