Brands Inc. has entered into an agreement to acquire Homestyle Dining LLC, parent company to the Ponderosa Steakhouse and Bonanza Steakhouse brands (“Ponderosa” and “Bonanza”). Once the $10.5 million deal has closed, Ponderosa and Bonanza will be added to the Company’s existing portfolio of brands that includes Fatburger, Buffalo’s Cafe and Buffalo’s Express. The Company also plans to develop a fast casual version of the Ponderosa concept.

FAT Brands’ acquisition of the steakhouse brands feeds into the Form 1-A filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) relating to the proposed initial public offering of its common stock under the recently amended provisions of Regulation A+ pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act of 2012, which can be viewed at https://www.sec.gov/spotlight/jobs-act.shtml. FAT Brands intends to make history by being the first Reg A+ Issuer listed on NASDAQ to pay a dividend.
