Business OverviewRestaurant.com is a pioneer in the restaurant deal space and the nation's largest restaurant-focused digital deals brand. Founded in 1999, we connect digital consumers, businesses, and communities offering dining and merchant deal options nationwide at over 182,500 restaurants and retailers to over 7.8 million customers. Our 12,500 core restaurants and 170,000Dining Discount Pass restaurants and retailers extend nationwide. Our top three B2C markets areNew York ,Chicago andLos Angeles . We derive our revenue from transactions in which we sell discount certificates for restaurants on behalf of third-party restaurants. Approximately 9-13 days each month we email our customers offers for restaurant discounts based on location and personal preferences. Consumers also access our deals directly through our websites and mobile applications. A typical restaurant discount deal might offer a$25 discount that can be used toward a$50 purchase at a restaurant. Additional deals include discounted pricing at theaters, movies or other merchants. Customers purchase restaurant deals from us and redeem them with our merchant partners. We charge, and only collect, a service fee from our customers which allows them to download the discount certificates and redeem them at the restaurant. We receive no revenue or commission from the restaurants offering the discount deals. We derive our revenue from transactions in which we sell complimentary entertainment and travel offerings and consumer products on behalf of third-party merchants. Approximately 9-13 days each month we email our customers offers for discounted experiences and products based on location and personal preferences. Consumers also access our deals directly through our websites and mobile applications. Those discounted experiences and products generally involve a customer's purchase of a voucher through one of our websites that can be redeemed with a third-party merchant for services or goods (or for discounts on services and goods). Revenue from those transactions is reported on a net basis and equals the purchase price received from the customer for the voucher less an agreed upon portion of the purchase price paid by us to our partners. Through our websites, www.restaurant.com, www.specials.restaurant.com, and mobile iOS and Android apps, we provide affordable dining and entertainment experiences. In addition to purchasing restaurant discount certificates, entertainment and travel deals and consumer products as well as company gift card redemption, our website and mobile platform provide additional information to assist the customer and encourage return visits to our websites, including restaurant menus, entrée pricing, mapping and directions, and extensive filtering options, including most popular, cuisine type and "Deals Near Me" for nearby restaurants. Paperless restaurant certificate redemption and validation can also occur on our mobile platforms. During the year endedDecember 31, 2020 , there were an average of 700,000 unique visitors per month to our digital platforms including our mobile and Specials offerings. Since the launch of our mobile apps in 2012, mobile has grown from zero to 49% of our B2C revenue and over 60% of the B2C orders with over 6.4 million downloads of our apps for
the year endedDecember 30, 2021 . Our B2B sales program has grown significantly since its introduction in 2004 and comprises 50% of revenue. Our high-value, low-cost features enable businesses to use Restaurant.com Gift Cards to entice new and existing customers to increase sales, promote customer satisfaction and incent desired behavior. The availability of use in every market, features like "never expire" and online exchange, and use by every customer demographic fit every business's customer base; features no other incentive product can match. 1 InMarch 2020 , theWorld Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and the related adverse public health developments, have adversely affected work forces, economies and financial markets globally. The outbreak has negatively impacted our revenues as a result of the temporary closures of restaurants throughoutthe United States where our discount certificates and Discount Dining Passes are accepted and where dining is being restricted to outdoor locations or to capacity constraints for indoor dining. We expect that for the next several months, as the virus continues to limit visits to restaurants and as many prospective patrons choose to order delivery of meals from restaurants or take advantage of picking-up meals from restaurants, to continue to negatively impact our revenues from purchase of our discount certificates, since they can only be redeemed when dining in the restaurants. In addition, our dining certificates are not accepted for payment by third-party platforms that facilitate ordering and delivery of food on-demand. As the COVID-19 pandemic appears to be abating, we expect an improvement in our revenues during the second half of the year
endingDecember 31, 2022 . Recent Developments OnJanuary 31, 2022 , the Company, through its newly formedDelaware subsidiary,GameIQ Acquisition Corp., Inc. , entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with GameIQ, aCalifornia corporation, that is a developer of consumer gamification technologies for retail businesses. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company agreed to issue 600,000 restricted shares of its common stock and issued promissory notes toBalazs Wellisch , President and co-founder, andQuentin Blackford , Director, of GameIQ, in the principal amounts of$78,813 and$62,101 , respectively, bearing interest at 1% per annum, to repay loans byMr. Wellisch andMr. Blackford to GameIQ. Each note requires repayment in nine equal biannual installments, with the first installment due on the nine-month anniversary of the Closing Date as that term is defined in the Merger Agreement. Following the merger, GameIQ shall merge with and into the Company. In addition,Balazs Wellisch will become Chief Technology Officer ofRestaurant.com , a subsidiary of the Company. The Merger Agreement closed onFebruary 28, 2022 . The closing price of the Company's common stock was$0.50 per share on bothJanuary 31, 2022 andFebruary 28, 2022 . Inflation Global inflation also increased during 2021 and in 2022. TheRussia andUkraine conflict and other geopolitical conflicts, as well as related international response, have exacerbated inflationary pressures, including causing increases in the price for goods and services and global supply chain disruptions, which have resulted and may continue to result in shortages in food products, materials and services. Such shortages have resulted and may continue to result in inflationary cost increases for labor, fuel, food products, materials and services, and could continue to cause costs to increase as well as result in the scarcity of certain materials. We cannot predict any future trends in the rate of inflation or other negative economic factors or associated increases in our operating costs and how that may impact our business. To the extent we and the restaurant customers we service are unable to recover higher operating costs resulting from inflation or otherwise mitigate the impact of such costs on our and their business, our revenues and gross profit could decrease, and our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, during the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2022 , the Company recorded an operating loss of$1,555,849 , used cash in operations of$714,244 , and had a stockholders' deficit of$2,341,006 atSeptember 30, 2022 . These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the financial statements being issued. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional funds and implement our business plan. As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year endedDecember 31, 2021 , has also expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

AtSeptember 30, 2022 , we had cash on hand in the amount of$1,462,750 . Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations until it begins generating positive cash flow. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case or equity financing.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of the Company's financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles inthe United States ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Some of those judgments can be subjective and complex, and therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include those related to assumptions used in estimates for reserves of uncollectible accounts, , depreciable lives of property and equipment, analysis of impairments of recorded long-term tangible and intangible assets, realization of deferred tax assets, accruals for potential liabilities and assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services.
