Chapter 11. Late Monday night, FAT Brands announced it has commenced voluntary chapter 11 proceedings in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. The Company plans to use the filings to deleverage the balance sheet, maximize value for its stakeholders, and support continued growth of its brands.
Precipitating Factor? It appears the tipping point for FAT to file the voluntary chapter 11 was Investor 352 Fund, the Company’s largest bondholder, earlier on Monday announcing it was suing FAT Brands for $109 million and promised Class B Common stock tied to ownership of Twin Peaks, as it was issued by Twin Hospitality.
