KWM Proposes Significantly Improved Financing Terms for Village Inn / Bakers Square Acquisition

Term Sheet Attached


Coral Springs, FL, June 28, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dear BBQ Holdings Board of Directors,

Congratulations on the exceptional purchase of Village Inn & Bakers Square, we look forward to the sizeable free cash flow and growth this new asset will provide – along with BBQ Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: BBQ) existing businesses. We are troubled by the dilution given the $21M in cash on the balance sheet combined with a robust free cash flow outlook and stark undervaluation of the shares. We are offering the company a $5M convertible preferred financing at 5% and convertible into common stock at $20/share, with few restrictive covenants. We urge the board to act in the best interest of shareholders by accepting our “balance sheet strengthening” preferred financing that will significantly minimize previously planned dilution of common stock.

A $5M preferred at 5% with few covenants and convertible at $20/share is clearly significantly more beneficial to shareholders than selling common stock at a net price in the low teens, and especially given the company will have net cash post raise!
