Inspire Brands, the owner of fast-food chains Dunkin', Arby's and Jimmy John's, said on Friday it had ?confidentially filed for a U.S. initial public offering, as the ?consumer IPO market picks up steam after a tepid 2025.
Atlanta-based Inspire Brands, which was formed in 2018 by private equity firm Roark Capital as a holding ?company, has a portfolio of more than 33,000 restaurants, including ?chains such as Buffalo Wild Wings, Sonic Drive-In and Baskin-Robbins.
The ?company bought Dunkin' Brands in an $11.3 billion deal in 2020, in one ?of the largest restaurant deals.
Bloomberg News reported in March that Inspire Brands' IPO could raise ?about $2 billion as early as this year.

I guess they're profitable but most of their brands are crap food and were crap long before 2018. I think Dunkin has a requirement that their employees must be complete morons fluent in any other language but English.

Sounds like an exciting opportunity for a discerning investor that wants to be teabagged by the PE group.
