LAKE FOREST, Calif., April 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Del Taco, the nation’s second largest Mexican quick service restaurant chain, is carrying tremendous momentum into the first quarter of 2021. Despite pandemic-induced pressures, the brand was resilient during the initial COVID-19 slowdown and began to thrive during the second half of 2020. This led to their eighth consecutive year of positive franchise same store sales growth which provides a great trajectory for the brand as it continues through 2021. Underscoring their tremendous performance, franchised locations have enjoyed topline sales strength that far exceeds industry trends.*

In Del Taco’s recent financial reports, the following notable highlights were included:**

• In Q3, franchised same store sales increased 6.5%;
• In Q4, franchised same store sales increased 7.5%;
• For fiscal year 2020, franchised same store sales increased 1.4%

“Our brand’s QSR-plus positioning continues to resonate with fans across a wide geographic footprint, and we couldn’t be more pleased with our systemwide results led by strong franchise same store sales growth,” said John D. Cappasola, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of Del Taco. “Moving forward we are focused on systemwide growth led by franchising and we are excited to work with active developers to bring the Del Taco brand to guests in new and existing territories. These strong franchised same store sales results and the launch of the new Fresh Flex prototype make it an exciting time be part of our great brand.”

Existing Del Taco franchisees are riding this wave into 2021 as multi-unit developers continue to sign franchise agreements in both established and untapped markets. Recognizing the opportunity to meet accelerating demand, seasoned multi-unit owner Dennis Ekstrom recently signed a new development agreement to add more units to his existing portfolio. Ekstrom opened his 12^th restaurant, in Truth Or Consequences, New Mexico, which was one of 3 existing franchisee openings that occurred in March.

“After 20-plus years in restaurant franchising, Del Taco has far exceeded my expectations with clever marketing, smart operations and strong development support,” said Ekstrom. “We’re well aligned with the leadership team as they make decisions to enhance our bottom line, and I’m confident in the growth opportunities that are on the horizon.”

Beyond existing franchisee growth, Del Taco continues to make progress partnering with experienced operators to help grow the brand through new development agreements in both established and emerging markets. Most recently, the brand signed an 11-restaurant development agreement with multi-brand franchise operator Peachtree Development. Bringing strong development and restaurant experience, the group is focused on growing the brand in South Carolina and Georgia. 

The focus on franchisee growth and recruitment is helped by the recent unveiling of the bold new Fresh Flex design that reconceptualizes Del Taco restaurants inside and out.  Striking exteriors and distinctive interiors evoke a fresh, fun and contemporary feel, all while improving real estate access for franchisees, and providing ultimate convenience for guests and operators.

With tech-savvy, innovative additions like third-party pick-up stations and double drive-thru lanes with a dedicated lane for mobile orders and delivery pickups, the future-focused model optimizes operational efficiencies and caters to modern consumers’ expectations: accessibility, speed of service, and brand transparency.

Del Taco is leveraging the Fresh Flex design to offer multiple buildout options, maximizing growth opportunities through a “Menu of Venues” strategy with building prototypes that vary in size from 1,200 to 2,400 square feet. The various prototypes allow company or franchise developers more flexibility in choosing real estate opportunities, including small footprint drive-thru only models, drive-thru endcaps, conversions and freestanding sites. Likewise, the design will also play an integral role in the brand’s remodeling program to contemporize the fleet and help drive returns.  

The brand continues to operate nearly half of the system’s restaurants, creating perfect alignment with franchisees on strategies to drive top and bottom line results. Across 16 states today, Del Taco has tremendous white space capacity to grow and is looking to develop with experienced individuals and operating teams across the nation.

PHILADELPHIA, April 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Lannett Company, Inc. (NYSE: LCI) today announced the submission of an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) for Fluticasone propionate and Salmeterol inhalation powder (100/50 mcg, 250/50 mcg and 500/50 mcg) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), by its strategic alliance partner, Respirent Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd. The product is the generic equivalent of ADVAIR DISKUS^® of GlaxoSmithKline. Total U.S. sales of the product, according to IQVIA market, were approximately $3 billion for the 12 months ending February 2021, although actual generic market values are expected to be lower.

“The ANDA submission of generic ADVAIR DISKUS^® marks a significant advancement toward our goal of adding larger and more durable products to our portfolio,” said Tim Crew, chief executive officer of Lannett. “We anticipate a rigorous FDA review, extending beyond one review cycle, for the ANDA, given this is a complex combination drug/device product, involves two active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and includes multiple dosage strengths.

“Currently, our agreements with Respirent include generic Advair Diskus, as well as second powder inhaler product, generic Flovent^® Diskus^® (Fluticasone Propionate Powder Inhaler). A key element of our growth strategy is to further build a franchise of respiratory drug/device products, and we are currently evaluating and in negotiation for additional product opportunities. We believe we have gained valuable experience during the development of the product and will learn important insights on the regulatory front, which we can bring to bear on these potential future opportunities.”

Commenting on Respirent, Crew added, “We continue to build an effective, close working relationship with our colleagues at Respirent – a team that has expertise and a deep working knowledge in developing, filing and manufacturing inhalation products and is committed to bringing affordable respiratory products to market.”

As previously announced, Lannett entered into an exclusive U.S. distribution agreement for the therapeutically equivalent generic of ADVAIR DISKUS^® (Fluticasone Propionate – Salmeterol Xinafoate Powder Inhaler) of Respirent. Under the agreement, Lannett will commence U.S. distribution of the product after FDA approval and receive a portion of the net profits once it commences distribution of the product. The companies recently extended the term of the agreement to 12 years, which begins upon commencement of distribution. Other terms were not disclosed.

ADVAIR DISKUS^® and Flovent^® Diskus^® are registered trademarks of GlaxoSmithKline. Advair Diskus is indicated as a twice-daily treatment of asthma in patients aged four years and older and maintenance treatment of airflow obstruction in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Flovent Diskus is an inhaled corticosteroid indicated for maintenance treatment of asthma as prophylactic therapy in patients aged four years and older.

About Respirent Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd.:
Respirent’s commitment is to provide Affordable Respiratory Medicines. Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are chronic diseases that require daily medications. Respirent recognizes the cost burden to patients and health authorities around the world, especially as prevalence and incidence have been increasing world-wide – particularly in underprivileged populations. So, Respirent is dedicated to addressing a significant unmet need to tackle this growing global public health problem and to create value for healthcare providers and patients. Respirent’s generic products are developed and manufactured in new state-of-the-art facilities that meet the most stringent regulatory and quality standards of the United States and Europe. Respirent’s upstream supply partners are also global leaders in their field of expertise which ensures delivery and service to commercial partners and patients is world-class.
