FAT Brands president and CEO Andy Wiederhorn said: “First quarter results provided a strong start to 2018, with particularly impressive momentum at our flagship Fatburger brand, where same-store sales grew 6.3%, inclusive of 2.1% transaction growth.

“Additionally, we have taken significant steps towards closing the previously announced acquisition of Hurricane Grill & Wings, a brand known for its jumbo fresh wings, which has over 60 restaurants open or under construction across eight states.

“We expect to complete the Hurricane acquisition in the next 30 days. Pro forma for this acquisition, and after full integration of anticipated synergies, we continue to expect to achieve an annualised revenue run-rate of over $18.5m, and an annualised EBITDA run-rate of $11m, $1.10 per share, beginning in the third quarter of 2018.”

The company opened two Fatburger & Buffalo’s Express stores and one Buffalo’s Café location during the first quarter.
