Twin Hospitality Group Inc. Names Andrew Wiederhorn as CEO

What Happened

  • Twin Hospitality Group Inc. filed an 8-K reporting that on December 26, 2025 the company terminated Kim Boerema as President and Chief Executive Officer, effective December 29, 2025. The company appointed Andrew Wiederhorn (age 59), Chairman of the Board and founder/CEO of parent company FAT Brands Inc., as President and Chief Executive Officer of Twin Hospitality Group.
  • The company issued a press release on December 29, 2025 announcing the management changes; that press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the 8-K.

Key Details

  • Effective date of CEO change: December 29, 2025 (termination notice given December 26, 2025).
  • Andrew Wiederhorn will not receive additional compensation for the CEO role and will continue to receive standard director fees.
  • Roger Gondek was elevated to President and Chief Operating Officer of Twin Peaks Restaurants.
  • Ken Brendemihl remains President and Chief Operating Officer of Smokey Bones Bar & Fire Grill.

Why It Matters

  • Executive leadership changes can affect company strategy, operations and investor confidence; this filing confirms immediate leadership consolidation under FAT Brands’ founder and chairman.
  • The appointment of Wiederhorn — who leads the parent company and will not take extra pay for the role — signals closer operational alignment with FAT Brands while keeping existing brand COOs in place for Twin Peaks and Smokey Bones.
  • Investors should note the date of the change and the company press release for any follow-up commentary or guidance; no financial results or compensation changes (beyond the CEO pay disclosure) were reported in this 8-K.
