Today, millions worldwide make T.G.I. Fridays restaurants one of their favorite "night out" destinations. With more than 800 locations across 47 states and 55 countries, T.G.I. Friday's offers a unique dining experience that's second to none whether it's the quality of our food, our service or our people. In 2005, we celebrated our 40th anniversary the first national casual-dining chain to reach that milestone. We updated to a contemporary look with modern signage, redesigned our music playlists and our uniforms, and introduced many new menu selections. So far more than 100 restaurants have been remodeled. We will finish the entire corporate restaurant redo by the end of 2006. By the end of 2007, all franchise restaurants are scheduled to complete their remake. Change is good. Just don't touch what's working. Our innovation, leadership and standard of excellence remain strong as ever.
