FCPT Announces Acquisition of Three Chili’s Restaurant Properties for $9.0 million

MILL VALLEY, Calif.--()--Four Corners Property Trust (NYSE:FCPT), a real estate investment trust engaged in the ownership of high-quality, net-leased restaurant properties (“FCPT” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the acquisition of three corporate-operated Chili’s restaurants through a sale-leaseback transaction with certain subsidiaries of Brinker International, Inc. (NYSE: EAT) for a purchase price of $9.0 million on initial annual cash rent of approximately $570,000. The properties are under individual leases with 15 years of initial term, rent increases of 10% every five years during the initial term and have a corporate guarantee from Brinker International, Inc. FCPT believes that rent is well-supported with conservative EBITDAR coverage, averaging 3.8x for the three restaurants. The properties are located in Texas (1) and Oklahoma (2), and are within well-located retail corridors with high traffic and attractive demographics. This transaction is independent from and not related to our previous Brinker transaction announced in August 2018.
