Franchise Resale & M&A Advisory for Broken Yolk Café Franchise Owners
By Mercedes Shaffer, Managing Director | Highwater Partners
Selling a Broken Yolk Café franchise is a specialized transaction that requires brand-specific expertise, disciplined valuation, and national buyer exposure. Broken Yolk Café operates within the fast-casual / casual breakfast and brunch segment, where unit-level performance, labor management, and real estate economics are closely reviewed by buyers, lenders, landlords, and the franchisor. Experienced M&A representation is essential to protect value and execute a successful sale.
At Highwater Partners, we specialize in franchise resale and M&A advisory for franchise owners, representing Broken Yolk Café franchisees across the United States. We advise owners on single-unit sales, multi-unit portfolio exits, and strategic divestitures, delivering a professional, highly structured process designed to maximize value and ensure transaction certainty.
True to our name, Highwater Partners serves clients at the highest level, combining disciplined execution with senior-level advisory and respect for the responsibility of representing a franchise owner’s business.
Why Selling a Broken Yolk Café Franchise Requires Specialized M&A Expertise
Broken Yolk Café franchise resales involve system-specific and operational considerations, including:
Franchisor approval and formal transfer requirements
Buyer net worth, liquidity, and restaurant operating experience standards
Brand compliance reviews tied to menu execution and guest experience
Lease assignment, landlord consent, and breakfast-focused real estate economics
Labor scheduling, daypart concentration, and food cost controls
These factors directly affect valuation credibility, buyer qualification, financing, and transaction timelines. A general business broker may understand restaurants—but a franchise M&A advisor understands Broken Yolk Café.
How Broken Yolk Café Franchises Are Valued
Broken Yolk Café franchise valuations are driven by sustainable cash flow, operational consistency, and transferability, not gross sales alone.
Key valuation considerations include:
Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE) or EBITDA
Trailing twelve-month and historical financial performance
Breakfast and brunch daypart margins
Labor efficiency and management depth
Lease terms, rent ratios, and remaining option periods
Brand compliance and anticipated capital expenditures
At Highwater Partners, we apply M&A-grade financial normalization and valuation methodologies, ensuring the business is positioned credibly for qualified buyers and lenders.
