ONE Group Hospitality (STKS) – Randian Adds Some Detail

Additional Detail. Randian Capital added another post on the social media platform X, providing additional details to its proposed turnaround plan for ONE Group Hospitality. Reportedly, the latest Randian X post was in response to STKS CEO Manny Hilario and CFO Nicole Thaung stating they had not engaged with Randian and were unaware if the firm held shares. The pair reiterated that ONE Group had no changes to guidance or plans for capital deployment being made.

The Driver. As we noted in our September 29th note, Randian believes there is tangible, underutilized value in this franchise—especially in Benihana, a legendary brand with global recognition and untapped potential. However, poor capital allocation, slipping operational execution, and marketing that is failing to drive engagement have resulted in a 60% decline in the share price since the 2024 Benihana acquisition, according to Randian.

Xcel Brands (XELB) – Exiting A Successful Run

Exits its Mizrahi interest. The company transferred its remaining 17.5% interest in Isaac Mizrahi to IM Topco, effectively exiting its interest in the brand. The exit of the Mizrahi relationship with Xcel caps a storied and successful run with the company since 2011. Under Xcel, Mizrahi expanded its categories and collections on QVC and into such retailers as Bloomingdale’s and Nordstrom.  

Financial upside. Xcel has a participation right should IM Topco sell the company above $46.0 million, coincidentally, the price that Xcel sold its 60% interest. Xcel would receive 15% of the net consideration in excess of the $46 million. In addition, we believe that the company will benefit from the absent of costs related to the brand, particularly employee costs.

Landmark partnership expands builder channel. SKYX announced it will supply more than 10,000 smart plug-and-play lighting and safety products to a 278-apartment project in Austin, Texas led by Landmark Companies. We believe this marks another important step in the company’s efforts to penetrate the builder channel, signaling traction with traditional residential developers.

Potential for broader builder relationships. By establishing a relationship with a large developer like Landmark, SKYX positions itself for additional project opportunities if early deployments prove successful. This deal highlights the potential for SKYX to extend its platform into the broader residential developer market, with initial supply expected to begin as early as within the next quarter or two.

EA’s $55 Billion Buyout Marks the Largest Gaming Deal in History

Posted on by [email protected]

Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA), one of the world’s most recognized video game publishers, is set to go private in a record-breaking $55 billion transaction led by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF), Silver Lake Management, and Affinity Partners. The deal, valued at $210 per share in cash, marks the largest leveraged buyout in history and underscores the growing influence of Middle Eastern sovereign wealth funds in global entertainment and technology.

Months before the transaction was finalized, Jared Kushner, founder of Affinity Partners and son-in-law to former President Donald Trump, played a behind-the-scenes role connecting Electronic Arts to PIF. Affinity, which manages about $5.4 billion in assets backed by Saudi, Emirati, and Qatari investors, will hold a minority stake in the deal, while PIF will secure a controlling interest. JPMorgan Chase is backing the agreement with a $20 billion loan facility.

For EA, the move into private ownership comes at a time of intensifying competition in the gaming industry. As rivals consolidate and diversify into esports, mobile, and immersive digital experiences, EA gains access to deep-pocketed partners willing to finance ambitious growth. The backing from PIF aligns with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 strategy, which seeks to diversify the kingdom’s economy and establish the country as a hub for video games and esports.

The deal, however, is not without hurdles. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) must review the takeover to assess potential national security implications of foreign ownership. While the Biden administration previously subjected Middle Eastern investment to heightened scrutiny, the Trump administration has signaled a more accommodating approach, developing a fast-track review process for allied nations. Approval outcomes could include unconditional clearance, approval with restrictions, or an outright block — though expectations are that the deal will move forward.

Industry observers note that the buyout has far-reaching implications beyond gaming. It highlights how sovereign wealth funds are increasingly shaping global dealmaking, moving from passive equity stakes into direct ownership of high-profile consumer brands. PIF’s growing presence across sports, media, and entertainment reflects a broader strategy to integrate cultural and lifestyle industries into its investment portfolio, thereby extending its soft power internationally.

For Affinity Partners, the EA deal marks its highest-profile transaction to date. Having received its initial $2 billion backing from PIF in 2021, Affinity has mostly targeted smaller growth-stage companies in health tech and consumer industries. Participation in the EA transaction elevates its visibility and underscores the firm’s ability to leverage political and business networks in securing marquee opportunities.

If approved, the buyout could reshape the landscape of video gaming. EA, known for its flagship sports franchises like FIFA (now EA Sports FC), Madden NFL, and NHL, would have the financial support to expand further into live-service platforms, esports, and emerging technologies such as cloud-based gaming. With sovereign capital driving this pivot, the transaction represents not only a milestone in gaming M&A, but also a signal of how global capital flows are redrawing the boundaries between technology, politics, and entertainment.

Steelcase (SCS) – A Better Than Expected 2Q26

Posted on by [email protected]


Friday, September 26, 2025

Joe Gomes, CFA, Managing Director, Equity Research Analyst, Generalist , Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

2Q26. In what is likely the Company’s final quarterly report as a public company, Steelcase reported better than expected results. Results benefitted from continued strengthening of demand from large corporate customers and International growth driven by India, China, and the United Kingdom. Improved International volume drove a $5 million reduction in y-o-y adjusted operating loss in the International segment. These were Steelcase’s highest quarterly results over the past five years.

Financials. Revenue of $897.1 million rose 4.8% y-o-y and exceeded the $890 million high end of management’s guidance. We were at $875 million. Gross margin of 34.4% was flat y-o-y and exceeded the 33.5% high end of guidance. Adjusted EBITDA totaled $99.6 million, or 11.1% of revenue, up from $89.5 million and 10.5% in 2Q25. Adjusted EPS was $0.45, versus $0.39 last year and above management’s $0.40 high end guide. We were at $0.36.
