GEN Restaurant Group: 3 Strategic Paths

GEN Restaurant Group faces traffic declines and margin pressure amid consumer shifts to value-focused dining but maintains strong restaurant-level ROI and cash flow. Despite weak sales growth, GENK's strategic options include slowing expansion, a founder-led buyout, or M&A, with recent share structure changes facilitating potential deals. M&A could value GENK at $5–$5.50 per share, a 57–73% premium, with likely buyers including Darden, MTY Food Group, or private equity.
