FAT Brands also announced on Wednesday that it entered into a $10.5 million agreement to acquire Homestyle Dining LLC, the parent company of two steakhouse brands, Ponderosa and Bonanza. With the acquisition, FAT increased its IPO price from the $20 million it announced in August.
Fatburger, which has 200 restaurants in 18 different countries, is currently the best-known of FAT Brands' restaurant concepts.
