Investor Relations

We are a leading owner and operator of two distinct Italian restaurant brands, BRAVO! Cucina Italiana (“BRAVO!”) and BRIO Tuscan Grille (“BRIO”). We have positioned our brands as multifaceted culinary destinations that deliver the ambiance, design elements and food quality reminiscent of fine dining restaurants at a value typically offered by casual dining establishments, a combination known as the upscale affordable dining segment. Each of our brands provides its guests with a fine dining experience and value by serving affordable cuisine prepared using fresh flavorful ingredients and authentic Italian cooking methods, combined with attentive service in an attractive, lively atmosphere. We strive to be the best Italian restaurant company in America and are focused on providing our guests an excellent dining experience through consistency of execution.

While our brands share certain corporate support functions to maximize efficiencies across our company, each brand maintains its own identity, therefore allowing both brands to be located in common markets. We have demonstrated our growth and the viability of our brands in a wide variety of markets across the U.S., growing from 49 restaurants in 19 states at the end of 2005 to 88 restaurants in 29 states as of June 27, 2010.
