Restau. Brands Asia

Lenexis Foodworks Private Limited, the promoter of Restaurant Brands Asia, has created a pledge over 11.88 crore equity shares to raise funds for the recent acquisition of the Burger King® operator in India and Indonesia. The disclosure, made under insider trading regulations, values the pledged stock at around ₹844 crore based on the volume-weighted average price on the National Stock Exchange on the date of pledge, July 14. The shares represent roughly 16.7% of the company’s total paid-up capital and are part of the 41.76% promoter stake acquired through the change-in-control transaction completed earlier this month. The pledge has been taken for a bonafide purpose, specifically to fund the acquisitions under the share purchase agreement and securities subscription agreement signed in January 2026. Restaurant Brands Asia, formerly Burger King India, confirmed the disclosure to stock exchanges on July 16.

Recasts throughout with details on deal, background on industry

Jan 20 (Reuters) - Restaurant Brands Asia RESR.NS said on Tuesday Inspira Global will invest up to 34.16 billion rupees ($375.06 million) for a controlling stake in the Burger King India operator, as private equity firm Everstone exits its stake.

The deal comes as fast food chains struggle to accelerate their sales in the world's most populous country, where they face price-conscious consumers and stiff competition from cheaper local upstarts.

RBA, which also operates Burger King and Popeyes in Indonesia, has posted a string of losses since it went public in 2020 in a blockbuster IPO.

The company's stock has also fallen sharply from a peak of 213.8 rupees it hit in the month of its debut. Ahead of the deal announcement on Tuesday, RBA's shares closed 4.7% lower at 63.68 rupees, giving the company a valuation of $408.4 million.

Inspira, an Indian business group which operates brands such as Chinese Wok, Big Bowl and The Momo Co, is paying 70 rupees per share in the deal, a premium of about 10% to Tuesday's closing price, RBA said.

Inspira will buy Everstone's entire stake of 11.26% in RBA from QSR Asia for about 4.6 billion rupees, and plans to invest about 9 billion rupees more through a preferential allotment of shares and another 6 billion rupees through warrants, giving it a total stake of about 35% in the company.

That will trigger a mandatory open offer to RBA's public shareholders for 14.56 billion rupees, which, if fully subscribed, will give Inspira a near 61% stake in the company's expanded voting capital, RBA added.

Reuters reported on Monday that RBA was set to bring in a new strategic investor in a deal that would see Everstone exit its entire stake in the company.

Earlier this month, Devyani International DEVY.NS and Sapphire Foods SAPI.NS — KFC and Pizza Hut franchisees in India — announced a $934 million merger deal, which was seen as a move to support scalability.

NEW DELHI/SINGAPORE, Jan 19 (Reuters) - Private equity firm Everstone will sell its entire 11.26% stake in Burger King's India and Indonesia franchisee Restaurant Brands Asia RESR.NS, as part of a deal to be announced on Tuesday, two people with direct knowledge of the matter said.

Everstone Capital's stake, through its investment vehicle QSR Asia Pte Ltd, is valued at $57 million currently, according to Refinitiv data. Restaurant Brands Asia has a market capitalisation of $437 million in Mumbai.

Under the deal, Restaurant Brands Asia will get a new strategic investor, said the two sources, who declined to be named as the matter is confidential.

Everstone and Restaurant Brands Asia did not respond to Reuters requests for comment.

The family office of the founders of India's Ajanta Pharma, which also runs other restaurant businesses, is set to be the strategic investor in the deal, and could inject up to 8 billion Indian rupees ($88 million) in the company, according to one of the sources.

Representatives of the family office did not respond to a request for comment.

It was not immediately clear what stake Ajanta would take in the company, but the source added it was considering taking up a majority stake in due course as other shareholders sell out.

Restaurant Brands Asia told Indian stock exchanges last week that it planned to hold a board meeting on Tuesday to "consider and evaluate raising of funds". It did not elaborate.

July 31 (Reuters) - Indian Burger King operator Restaurant Brands Asia RESR.NS reported a narrower first-quarter loss on Thursday.

The company reported a net loss of 419.4 million rupees ($4.79 million) for the three months ended June 30, compared to a 493.6 million rupee loss a year earlier.

May 19 (Reuters) - Restaurant Brands Asia RESR.NS, the India franchisee of Burger King, reported a narrower fourth-quarter loss on Monday, as its affordable menu appealed to cost-conscious customers.

The company reported a net loss of 562.8 million rupees ($6.6 million) for the three months ended March 31, compared with a loss of 852.60 million rupees a year earlier.

Indian operators of U.S. chains such as Pizza Hut, KFC, McDonald's MCD.N and Burger King QSR.TO face a double blow, as they grapple not only with stiff competition from local rivals but also shrinking consumer spending due to high living costs and slow wage growth.

To counter this, they have relied on cheaper menu options to draw in diners.

In the last quarter, Restaurant Brands Asia introduced deals such as a bundle of two vegetarian burgers at 79 rupees and two chicken burgers at 99 rupees.

Such efforts helped its overall revenue climb nearly 6% to 6.33 billion rupees. Same-store sales at Burger King restaurants across India increased 5.1%, led by a growth in dine-in traffic.

Cheaper menu items also helped McDonald's franchisee Westlife Foodworld WEST.NS double its profit last quarter, although KFC and Pizza Hut franchisee Sapphire Food India SAPI.NS flagged a longer road to recovery, pressured by competition from delivery-focused Domino's, operated by Jubilant FoodWorks JUBI.NS.

Restaurant Brands Asia, however, has slowed its new store openings. It added just three new stores last quarter, out of a total of 58 for the April-March fiscal year.

It continues to focus on keeping diners through such efforts as last month's limited-time "Korean Spicy Fest" menu, which included burgers, chicken wings and fries, to cash in on the buzz around K-culture.

May 5 (Reuters) - India's Jubilant FoodWorks' JUBI.NS strong sales growth for the March quarter is set to outpace rivals whose franchisees are expected to report muted growth despite value-focused promotions, several analysts said.

Operators of U.S. chains KFC YUM.N, McDonald's MCD.N and Burger King QSR.TO are likely to report a decline to mid-single-digit growth in same-store sales, as inflation-hit consumers cut back and local competition intensifies, according to six brokerages.

Jubilant, however, has already flagged a 12.1% increase in like-for-like sales in India in its quarterly update, which analysts say has benefited from its focus on online sales, discounts on third-party platforms, and a waiver of delivery fees on app orders.

Other franchisees have not issued sales updates. Sapphire kicks off earnings for the sector on Wednesday.

"Competitive intensity is growing in fried chicken and burger and the larger existing players like KFC and McDonald's don't have anything different to offer versus rivals," said Karan Taurani, an analyst at Elara Securities.

"Jubilant is performing the best of the lot," Taurani said, adding that its investments into 20-minute in-house delivery and app-led orders are helping reduce its reliance on third-party platforms, which rivals are heavily dependent on.

India's fast-food sector is cooling as inflation-hit consumers cut back, with franchisees relying on discounts to stay competitive in a crowded market.

Unlike Jubilant, which has pushed delivery and app-based offers, KFC and McDonald's franchisees rely more on dine-in traffic and face growing pressure from local cafes and restaurants, analysts said.

Jubilant reported a 34% jump in consolidated revenue to 21.07 billion rupees ($250.05 million) for the March quarter.

While Jubilant's digital strategy has delivered steady outperformance through the year, analysts expect its profit margins — like those of other operators — to remain under pressure in the March quarter, partly due to rising raw material and marketing costs.

Three brokerages expect Jubilant's core earnings margin — a metric the restaurant operator aims to boost over the next few quarters by tightening its costs — to be unchanged from a year earlier.

However, some analysts see fried chicken as a key long-term growth category, despite the challenge of sameness.

"If you see from a longer-term perspective, the next growth driver is the overall fried chicken category in India, but there would be some pressure for one or two quarters," said Preeyam Tolia of Axis Securities.

Jan 29 (Reuters) - Restaurant Brands Asia RESR.NS, the India franchisee of Burger King, reported a wider third-quarter loss on Wednesday, weighed by high costs and inflation-hit customers cutting back on dining out.

The company reported a net loss of 504 million rupees ($5.82 million) for the three months ended Dec. 31, from a loss of 361.8 million rupees a year earlier.

Same-store sales at Indian Burger King restaurants slipped 0.5%, with the restaurant operator blaming "flat demand."

Global fast-food chains, including Burger King and McDonald's, have been doubling down on cheaper options over the last few quarters to attract India's price-sensitive customers amid high inflation.

Burger King offered some of the cheapest deals in the industry in the country, including a bundle of two vegetarian burgers at 79 rupees and of two chicken burgers at 99 rupees.

This, along with opening more outlets, propped up the company's revenue by 5.8% to 6.39 billion rupees.

Its total store count in India stood at 510, up 69 from last year and 46 from the previous quarter.

However, the company was also affected by high prices of ingredients, which led to an 8.5% increase in total expenses to 7.03 billion rupees.

Cafe chain Tata Starbucks and pizza group Papa John's International PZZA.O, meanwhile, have said they are rethinking their India plans amid subdued consumer sentiment.

Earlier in the day, Restaurant Brands Asia's rival Westlife Foodworld WEST.NS, the operator of McDonald's MCD.N in India, reported a 59% drop in quarterly profit.

Restaurant Brands International QSR.TO, which has Burger King restaurants in more than 100 countries, will report quarterly results on Feb. 12, according to its website.

Adds background, revenue in paragraphs 4-7

Nov 11 (Reuters) - Jubilant FoodWorks JUBI.NS, which operates the Domino's Pizza DPZ.N brand in India, posted a smaller-than-expected fall in second-quarter profit on Monday, as cheaper menu items attracted budget-conscious customers.

Consolidated net profit fell to 640.5 million rupees ($7.59 million) for the quarter ended Sept. 30 from 972 million rupees a year earlier.

Analysts had estimated 635.2 million rupees, according to data compiled by LSEG.

Persistently high inflation has prompted consumers in the world's most populous country to pare back their dine-out spending, forcing fast-food chains to roll out cheaper menu items such as Domino's' four-course meal for 99 rupees ($1.2).

This, as well as its move to open more stores, paid off as Jubilant's revenue from operations rose nearly 43% to 19.55 billion rupees for the September quarter.

The results come in contrast to Jubilant's peers' numbers.

Sapphire Foods India SAPI.NS, which operates Pizza Hut and KFC, posted a surprise loss, while Burger King operator Restaurant Brands Asia RESR.NS booked a bigger loss. Profit at Westlife Foodworld WEST.NS, which runs McDonald's, slid.
