Everyday Investors Can Now Buy Stock in Iconic Brands

LOS ANGELES (August 3, 2017) – FAT (Fresh. Authentic. Tasty.) Brands Inc. (“FAT Brands” or the “Company”), today announced the intention to file a Regulation A+ initial public offering that allows anyone the opportunity to invest in its family of brands. FAT Brands is a leading global franchising business that strategically develops fast casual and casual dining restaurants around the world. With a portfolio of brands that includes Fatburger, Buffalo’s Cafe, Buffalo’s Express and other acquisitions under contract, FAT Brands has positioned itself for significant growth while remaining devoted to its franchisees’ profitability and their ability to serve only the highest quality menu offerings to customers around the world. FAT Brands franchises more than 200 restaurants across six states and 18 countries worldwide. 

TriPoint Global Equities, LLC, working with its online division BANQ® (www.banq.co), will act as the lead managing selling agent and sole bookrunner for the offering. FAT Brands intends to make history by being the first Reg A+ Issuer listed on a National Securities Exchange to pay a dividend.

The Company seeks to raise up to $20 million in its IPO under Regulation A+, the largest offering of its kind to date. In succession, and subject to New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or NASDAQ requirements, the Company plans to list on a National Securities Exchange as “FAT.” FAT Brands intends to use the proceeds from the offering for key corporate purposes including brand acquisitions, working capital, domestic and international expansion and retirement of existing debt.  Individuals interested in learning more about the FAT Brands Regulation A+ investment opportunity can register an indication of interest by visiting www.banq.co/listings/fat.

“Our dedication to quality and great taste is reflected in our loyal worldwide following as our brands have grown over the years. We have developed the management team and business infrastructure to continue to grow our brands, acquire new brands and grow them globally under our asset-light model,” said FAT Brands Founder and CEO, Andy Wiederhorn. “As we make the transition from a private company to a public one, we are delighted to position our restaurants so that our fans can now be part owners too.”
