(&#8220;Fiesta&#8221; or the &#8220;Company&#8221;) (NASDAQ: FRGI) today announced that it has entered into a definitive stock purchase agreement for the sale of the Taco Cabana\u00ae restaurant brand to YTC Enterprises, LLC, an affiliate of Yadav Enterprises, Inc. (&#8220;Yadav&#8221;), a restaurant company that operates close to 400 locations throughout Northern California, Texas and sixteen other states.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Taco Cabana Divestiture and Use of Proceeds<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThe Company\u2019s stock purchase agreement with Yadav provides for the sale of all of the outstanding capital stock of Taco Cabana, Inc., the parent company of the Taco Cabana business, for a cash purchase price of $85 million, subject to reduction for certain working capital and other closing adjustments estimated in the aggregate amount of approximately $7 million to $9 million (excludes Winter Storm Uri insurance proceeds to be received by Fiesta). The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Proceeds from the sale will be used to fully repay Fiesta\u2019s approximately $74.6 million of outstanding term loan borrowings under Fiesta\u2019s senior credit facility and to pay divestiture transaction fees and a loan prepayment premium totaling approximately $4.6 million<sup>(1)<\/sup>. As of June 27, 2021, the Company cash balance was $67.6 million. Subsequent to the transaction close, a portion of those funds will be used for investments to accelerate Pollo Tropical&#8217;s \u00ae growth. In addition, the Company\u2019s Board of Directors will be evaluating additional strategies for increasing shareholder value including potential future stock repurchases.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFiesta President and Chief Executive Officer Richard Stockinger stated, \u201cWe made the strategic decision to sell the Taco Cabana business to allow our leadership team to focus completely on accelerating Pollo growth, and we are very excited about the tremendous growth opportunities we have for the Pollo Tropical business.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nRichard Stockinger added, \u201cAnil Yadav, the CEO of Yadav Enterprises, has an impressive entrepreneurial background and is a highly-respected restaurant operator with a proven record of success across a variety of limited and full-service concepts. We are confident he will be an effective steward of the Taco Cabana brand for the long-term.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Driving Growth of Pollo Tropical<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nStockinger concluded, \u201cWe believe the Taco Cabana sale will provide great value to our shareholders, allowing us to create a more effective, efficient and focused organization, applying appropriate resources to accelerate delivery of the exciting growth potential we have in our Pollo Tropical brand. This will include our continued efforts to drive an upgraded customer experience across all service channels, continuing to invest in expanding our growing digital platform and finalizing our new unit expansion plans targeted for 2022.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<ol class=\"bwlistdecimal\">\n<li>\nAmount comprised of a loan prepayment fee of 3% of the principal repaid of $2.2 million and divestiture transaction fees estimated at approximately $2.4 million.
