Fat Brands declares preferred stock dividend

In a recent 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Fat Brands Inc., a company known for its retail eating places, has announced a monthly cash dividend for its shareholders. The Board of Directors declared this dividend on February 18, 2025, for the holders of the company’s 8.25% Series B Cumulative Preferred Stock. According to InvestingPro data, FAT Brands maintains a significant 15.56% dividend yield, though analysts note the company operates with substantial debt and faces cash flow challenges.

The dividend, set at $0.171875 per share, is applicable for the calendar month ending February 28, 2025. Shareholders who are on record by the close of business on March 10, 2025, will be eligible for the dividend payment, which is scheduled to be distributed on March 20, 2025. With a market capitalization of $61.24 million and total debt of $1.54 billion, the company’s financial position warrants careful analysis.

This financial move underscores Fat Brands’ commitment to providing value to its investors and maintaining a consistent dividend payout, despite facing significant operational challenges. The company has shown strong revenue growth of 42.38% over the last twelve months, though InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is currently trading below its Fair Value, presenting a potential opportunity for value investors. The company’s preferred stock is listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC under the ticker symbol FATBP.

The announcement of the dividend follows the company’s corporate governance practices and is in line with the regulations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The information provided in this article is based on the statements made in the press release issued by Fat Brands Inc.
