CRACKER BARREL ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC ACTIONS
Cracker Barrel completed a sale-leaseback of 26 store locations, generating approximately $77 million in net proceeds to reduce debt, and sold the assets of its Maple Street Biscuit Company subsidiary to Biscuit Belly, LLC.
The divestiture of Maple Street is expected to result in $37 million to $39 million in non-cash charges but will allow the company to sharpen its focus on its core brand, with expected adjusted EBITDA accretion in fiscal 2027.
As a result of these strategic initiatives, the company raised its fiscal 2026 outlook, expecting to achieve the high end of its revenue range of $3.27 billion to $3.30 billion and exceed its adjusted EBITDA outlook of $120 million to $125 million.
