ICR Conference. FAT Brands CEO Andrew Wiederhorn and Executive Chairman James Neuhauser held a fireside chat at the ICR Conference in Orlando Monday. Three key points discussed were management’s goal to get to the 15th largest restaurant company by unit count from its current 25th largest ranking, lowering leverage over time, and narrowing the valuation gap. 

New Builds Drive Unit Count Growth. FAT Brands’ pipeline remains strong, in excess of 1,000 units. Management expects some 175 locations to open in 2023. Notably, 100 are already under construction with another 30 in the permitting phase. Although inflation has driven costs construction higher, sales growth at locations is helping offset higher costs. Additional potential acquisitions will supplement organic growth.
