I will start this with a disclaimer that I am not a huge fan of Red Lobster. However, I find this an intensely interesting case study. While the blame for their financial woes has been thrown only at the pervasive "all you can eat shrimp" promotion, the company was already on the decline when it decided to make this a staple menu item. I believe that the crux of the issue was a July 2014 sale of property owned by Red Lobster that netted them $1.5 billion. It also gave them a permanent rent cost that did not exist before that time. Rent costs that they most likely could not control and increased over time. In fact, by 2023 the rent cost was $200 million for the year. Comparing that to the $11 million lost from the shrimp promotion, it seems clear what the real culprit was. I suppose it may not have been an issue had the money been put back into the company. Instead, they went for asset stripping even though this strategy had destroyed other companies (Sears for example). I am interested to see how this new CEO will create a plan to address the bigger issues at the company. Though I'm sure the shrimp will be missed. #CaseStudy #RedLobster #AssetStripping (Source: NBC News - https://lnkd.in/eqzf5K2i )

The #coffee space has evolved significantly and is very competitive. ? The post-pandemic acceleration of drive-thru focused concepts is leading to significant #development of these small format sites all over the U.S. They crush it on sales and margins. However, this can be dangerous for real estate investors, especially when you have to replace/reposition a property. We priced this opportunity in a much lower rate environement and with less data on how this new concept would trade. Our focus when evaluating something new: is on rent and replacability. Along with total rent vs. performance. This high traffic corridor has signficant new development along with the property having strong residual value, sitting on a large parcel. Not a quick up and down, this required significant education on the space and tenant. Thank you #blackstone for the little bump there at the end. ?? https://lnkd.in/eG6gJBjc Inventory log jam is high right now. The market requires real skills to execute.
