Jersey Mike's Confidentially Files for IPO

The move signals Blackstone may seek an exit via the public market.

Overview

  • Jersey Mike's disclosed Monday it filed a confidential IPO registration with the SEC, with the price range and share count not yet set.
  • Bloomberg reports Morgan Stanley, JPMorgan and Jefferies are advising, with sources citing tentative goals above $12 billion in value and more than $1 billion raised that could change.
  • The step follows Blackstone's majority buyout at about $8 billion more than a year ago and the appointment of former Wingstop chief Charlie Morrison as CEO.
  • Franchise filings show 2025 revenue rose 10.6% to $309.8 million while net income fell to $183.6 million, and the chain has more than 3,000 U.S. locations, second to Subway.
