Business Acquisition | Business Acquisition Fuzzy's Acquisition On December 13, 2022, the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Fuzzy’s for approximately $80 million in cash, pursuant to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 2, 2022, with Fuzzy’s becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Fuzzy’s is a dining company that develops, franchises and operates casual dining restaurants that offer a specialized menu of Baja-style Mexican food under the Fuzzy’s Taco Shop brand. The Company acquired Fuzzy’s as part of the Company’s goal to invest in a high growth concept to accelerate growth. The Company reviewed the SEC guidance in Regulation S-X on the significance of an acquired business that determines if an acquired business is required to provide financial statements and pro forma statements if the business exceeds 20% significance to the Company. Based on the three required tests (asset, investment and income) that were performed by the Company, the acquisition was not deemed to be a significant acquisition, and therefore the required disclosures are limited in these Consolidated Financial Statements. The results of operations related to Fuzzy's have been included in the consolidated results of the Company subsequent to the acquisition date. The acquisition of Fuzzy’s has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, with the Company treated as the accounting acquirer, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their acquisition date fair value. The Company received a third-party actuarial valuation report to determine the fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The intangible assets acquired include franchising rights with a useful life of 20 years and a tradename with an indefinite useful life (see Note 7 - Other Intangible Assets). The fair value of franchising rights was estimated based on the estimated future cash flows to be generated from these franchise agreements. The earnings expected to be generated by the franchising rights were forecasted over the estimated duration of the intangible asset. The earnings were then discounted to present value at a rate commensurate with the risk of the asset. The fair value of the tradename was based on the multi-period excess earnings method, a variation of the income approach, using cash flows (“excess earnings”) attributable only to the tradename intangible asset. These excess earnings were discounted to present value at a rate commensurate with the risk of the asset. The fair value of the tangible personal property and other working capital assets and liabilities was assumed to approximate book value. Operating lease liabilities were calculated using the present value of lease payments not yet paid and operating lease assets were calculated based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments. The contractual rent payments were determined to approximate market rates. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of net assets acquired at December 13, 2022:
| (In millions)
Receivables and other current assets | $ | 1.1 |
Property and equipment and other non-current assets | 2.1 |
Tradename | 57.2 |
Franchise agreements | 14.8 |
Other intangible assets | 0.5 |
Goodwill | 7.0 |
Accounts payable and other liabilities | (4.4) |
Net cash paid for acquisition | $ | 78.3 |
The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired amounted to approximately $7.0 million. The acquisition goodwill arises from the expected synergies from combining the operations of the Company and Fuzzy’s. During the allowable allocation period in 2023, the Company recorded a $0.1 million purchase price adjustment. Acquisition of Applebee's Restaurants On November 11, 2024, the Company entered into a cooperation agreement with a former Applebee's franchisee to acquire 15 Applebee's restaurants across Tennessee, Arkansas, Illinois, Kentucky, Missouri, and Mississippi. The Company entered into the transaction to invest in the system, improve operations through innovation tests and create a blueprint for franchisee success and growth for the Company. The transaction was structured as a non-cash transaction, with no consideration transferred by the Company, resulting in a $0.6 million gain on bargain purchase, which is recognized in the general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as of December 31, 2024. The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition:
|  | (In millions)
Equipment and fixtures |  | $ | 1.1 |
Inventory and other current assets |  | 0.2 |
Total identifiable assets acquired |  | 1.3 |
Liabilities assumed |  | (0.7) |
Bargain purchase gain |  | $ | 0.6 |
On November 19, 2024, the Company entered into an Agreement for the Purchase and Sale of Assets with an Applebee's franchisee to acquire 41 Applebee's restaurants across Georgia and Texas for a total purchase price of $8.3 million. The Company entered into the transaction to invest in the system, improve operations through innovation tests and create a blueprint for franchisee success and growth for the Company. There were no significant indirect costs related to the transaction as of December 31, 2024. The following table summarizes the recognized amount of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:
|  | (In millions)
Equipment and fixtures |  | $ | 12.0 |
Inventory and other current assets |  | 0.9
Reacquired franchise rights |  | 0.3
Off-market leases |  | (4.1)
Total identifiable assets acquired |  | 9.1 |
Liabilities assumed |  | (3.6)
Total identifiable net assets |  | 5.5
Goodwill |  | 2.8
Consideration transferred |  | $ | 8.3 |
The purchase price allocation is preliminary, subject to finalization of certain transition cut-off adjustments typical with transactions of this nature. There are no significant unresolved contingencies. The Company does not expect there will be material adjustments to the preliminary purchase price allocation. The results of operation of these restaurants are included in the Company's consolidated results from the acquisition date. The Company has not presented pro forma results of the restaurants for periods prior to the acquisition because the business is not considered significant as measured by the amount of the Company's investment in and assets of the business relative to the Company's consolidated balance sheet and by the income before income taxes of the business relative to the Company's average consolidated income before income taxes for the most recent five-year period excluding loss years.
