Landcadia Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:LCA) (“Landcadia”), a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company, and Waitr Incorporated (“Waitr”), a fast growing restaurant platform for online ordering and secondary on-demand food delivery, announced today that they have completed their previously announced business combination under which Landcadia acquired Waitr for approximately $308 million in total consideration. The business combination was approved today by Landcadia’s stockholders.

Upon completion of the business combination, Landcadia changed its name to Waitr Holdings Inc. and will continue trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol “WTRH”, commencing November 16, 2018.

In connection with the business combination, Landcadia completed the previously announced $85 million financing from Luxor Capital Group, LP, consisting of a $25 million term loan facility and the issuance of $60 million of convertible notes.

Chris Meaux, founder and Chief Executive Officer of Waitr, and the rest of the Waitr executive team will continue in their respective roles for the combined company. Mr. Meaux will also serve as Chairman of the combined company’s board of directors. Tilman J. Fertitta, co-founder of Landcadia, will serve as a director of the combined company, and in such capacity, will be in a position to oversee the combined company’s growth and brand building.

Mr. Fertitta commented: “We are pleased to complete the merger with Waitr. I believe they are the best-in-class, on-demand food ordering and delivery partner for customers and restaurants. They are also positioned well to take advantage of the massive unpenetrated market for online delivery, particularly in secondary markets.”

Mr. Meaux commented: “We are excited to partner with Tilman and the Landcadia team and we believe this is a great opportunity. Our combined expertise, experience and resources, and being a publicly-traded company will further enable us to accelerate our growth in the markets we currently serve, expand into new markets and take advantage of potential opportunistic acquisitions.”
