Forward guidance
BJ's Restaurants anticipates expanding its subscription-based beer club to additional California restaurants this spring and expects its innovation around individual catering boxes, combined with its other catering options and family meal bundles, will continue to drive momentum in this under-leveraged segment of its business.
