September SSS grew by 1.2%, while comparable traffic fell by Even though the industry appeared stronger due to hurricanes in Texas 1.4% and Florida in the previous year, sales growth was impressive across the entire country.

  • Restaurants: Updating Our Thoughts on M&A
    RBC Capital Markets, LLC Christopher Carril (Analyst) (617) 725-2109 [email protected] November 10, 2020 Restaurants: Updating Our Thoughts on M&A In light of the recently announced deal for DNKN to be acquired by Inspire Brands, in this note we take a look at recent trends in restaurant M&A, and what it means for the companies in our coverage. Is the DNKN deal a sign of things to come? Restaurants have been an active space for M&A—we EQUITY RESEARCH estimate that approximately 40% of the top 100 largest brands in the US have changed ownership over the last ten years—and we expect this trend to continue. Restaurants make attractive acquisition targets, particularly single brand, asset-light "all-franchised" companies able to generate significant free cash flow (e.g. DNKN w/near-100% FCF conversion). Additionally, this year's pandemic has also highlighted the resilience of fast food models, and especially those featuring significant drive-thru or delivery/carryout mix (conversely, over 80% of recent large chain bankruptcies are in the full service segment). However, the bargain hunting window has largely closed, with average valuations of single brand companies back to (or above) pre-COVID levels. But holding this aside, we expect the attractive qualities of restaurants to continue to draw the interest of potential acquirers, setting the stage for continued M&A activity. Thinking through the universe of potential acquirers: We expect private equity to remain active participants in restaurant M&A given the reasons cited above, and driven by substantial available dry powder.

Seventy six percent of respondents were women. Sixty-six percent of women at CKE Restaurants reported experiencing unwanted sexual behaviors at work, compared to 40% of women in the fast food industry overall, according to a national survey. Women working at CKE reported over 1.5 times the rate of sexual harassment reported for the industry overall.

  • Changes in the Ground Beef Market and What It Means for Cattle Producers
    Changes in the Ground Beef Market and What it Means for Cattle Producers Written by Dr. Nevil Speer1, Tom Brink2, and Mark McCully3 Funded by The Angus Foundation 1 Project initiated while Professor at Western Kentucky University 2 President/Founder, Top Dollar Angus, Inc. 3 Certified Angus Beef, LLC Introduction Hamburgers have been a favorite in the United States for more than a century, and ground beef has long been a staple, versatile and convenient for time-squeezed consumers. Burger popularity moved to new heights over the past decade, especially when low-carb, high- protein dieting began to gain traction in 2003 and ’04. Many companies assessed the market and responded accordingly, as burgers were an increasingly featured item on their restaurant menus. Much of that impetus began with fast-food restaurants racing to make bigger burgers to take advantage of beef’s resurging popularity. CKE Restaurants started the fray by introducing a half-pound burger in its Carl’s Jr. restaurants. McDonald’s soon followed by introducing its new sandwich – the Big N’ Tasty. That set off a whole wave of burger-mania, including: Hardee’s introducing its new line of Thickburgers (choice of 1/3-, 1/2- and 2/3- pound) with an emphasis on taste and quality. Carl’s Jr. also introduced the Low Carb Six Dollar Burger – a 1-pound offering. Wendy’s initiated its own burger promotion in 2004, test marketing “Meals for Carb Counters.” The promotion featured a cheeseburger meal with only six grams of carbohydrates and the ability to add a second ¼-pound beef patty.
