NRO pipeline — new restaurant openings

Sites moving from selection to open. Each new restaurant graduates into the master once it opens. Click a card to drill into its record.

SIP — sites reviewed and not pursued

Candidate sites that were taken to the owner and did not go forward. They are out of the pipeline count and out of the SIP board, and every one of them keeps its full record — the price that was asked, the forecast, the cannibalization on nearby ARN units — alongside the owner's own words on why ARN passed and what would have to change to bring the trade area back. Click a site to open the record.

Site packages — the paper behind every candidate site

The file room for the pipeline. A SIP record says what a site is; the package is what was actually sent about it — the CEO summary, the site plan, the forecast, the comp book, the LOI. File one here and it appears on every candidate record it speaks for, opens from the record drawer, and prints on the sheet. A deck covering a whole trade area is filed against the market and lists every parcel it covers, so it surfaces on each of them without being attributed to one. Nothing filed here is read by the app — the type, the label and the note are whatever a person typed, and a package whose file has not arrived says exactly that instead of showing a broken link.

Leasing — rent roll & lease abstract

Every leased restaurant with its rent and lease terms. Sort by any column; the soonest lease expirations rise to the top of Renewals. Click a row to open the full lease abstract and the lease documents on file behind it — the Docs column counts the paper attached to each store.

Dispositions — closures, transfers & excess

Stores under closure or transfer review, plus owned real estate flagged to lease or sell. Click a store to drill into its record; excess parcels are detailed under Real Estate Assets.

Store-level dispositions

Restaurants carrying a closure recommendation, a transfer/sister-store link, or a pipeline status.

Excess real estate to dispose

Owned parcels that aren't an operating restaurant — leasable for income or sellable.

Restaurants — the single source of truth

Click any restaurant to drill all the way down to its root record. Sort by any column; filter and search.

Report Builder

Build a report on any store field, then take it to Excel. Pick exactly the columns you want, filter and summarize, and export the whole result set — not just what fits the screen. Fields awaiting data show “—”.

Summary Report

A one-line-per-restaurant tracking sheet — just the basics needed to work a list: number, brand, address, ownership, status, opening and lease-expiry dates, the latest saved note, and ruled space to write findings. Built to print as-is, and exportable to Excel.

All Notes

Every saved portfolio and Rob's Gold note, newest first. Click a note to open the linked restaurant, cell-site, SIP record, or note detail.

Rob's Gold — Rob's own files, in the app

Rob kept his working notes in his own files and had them converted to PDF. Those PDFs live here: open one and read it without leaving the app, or search the text taken out of them and jump straight to the page a note sits on. Search runs against every page on file, and a store number finds the pages that name it however the paper wrote it — 1968, 01968 or 001968. Every file is filed under a subject, and a record with no PDF behind it says so plainly rather than implying one exists. Lease paper is a separate library: executed leases, amendments and abstracts are filed against each store record under Lease documents.

Store P&L — two operators, two calendars, reported apart

ARN closes thirteen four-week fiscal periods a year; ALBOR — the Wisconsin partnership — closes calendar months. Four weeks is not a month, so the two are reported separately here and nothing is converted between them: no period figure is added to, averaged with or compared against a month figure. Every close loaded is kept, so an event inside the year can be measured while it is still negotiable — including what it does to the leases that pay percentage rent. Restaurants with nothing on file are not listed; the platform shows what it has been sent, never an estimate.

ALBOR — the full P&L, closed by calendar month

The statements ALBOR has sent, month to date and year to date against the same month a year earlier. More than one close can be on file for a restaurant — a monthly close and the December close that shuts the fiscal year — so pick the close you want to read; each is shown exactly as its own statement prints it. These are months throughout: no figure here has been restated onto ARN's four-week periods.

Development meeting — Thursday, August 20, 2026 · 12:30–5:00 PM

Run the meeting from here. Every figure is read live from the rent roll, the current fiscal period and the broker comps, so the room is never deciding against a number that moved after the deck was cut. Decisions are captured as they are made and the recap is generated from them — nothing is retyped afterwards.

Lease renewals

Active restaurant renewals plus cell-site leases. Each one counts down to its critical date where a date is established, and says so plainly where it is not — a blank gets chased, a zero gets decided against. Packages already submitted for a CEO decision are listed first, with the file that was sent.

Renewal deal models

The twenty-year rent projection for every renewal, modelled here rather than in a workbook. Sales, comp averages and the current rent are read from the live portfolio on every load, so a model is never quoting a number that was true the day someone typed it. Scenario rents, escalations, periods and landlord credits are the negotiating assumptions — those are editable, and every revision is saved against the store.

Renewal Worksheet

The negotiating file of record, screen for screen with the workbook it was built from — Renewal Deal Worksheets, all Tier 1-2 locations (v24, 8/5/26) — and read against the live store record on every load. One worksheet per renewal: the lease exactly as written, the percentage-rent clause, the occupancy build-up off AP actuals, every comp with the work shown and its qualification, the rent scenario tester including the column left open for what Rob approves in the room, the playbook checks against the 8%/5-yr escalation authority and the 8%-of-sales hard stop, and the year-by-year deal grid. Every line carries the SSOT beside it — the live rent, sales, lease expiry, critical date and renewal phase — and says plainly where the workbook and the record disagree. Click any renewal and it opens as the live store record in its renewal phase, so the worksheet, the model and the store are one record rather than three. Choose how many columns to carry, filter to the stores you are taking into a meeting, then print it as a package or export the roll-up and every table to Excel.

Cell-site leases — ancillary income

ARN is the landlord. The AT&T legacy lease has compounded above market — defend the rate at the ~2030 reset.

Excess properties — lease or sell

Owned real estate that isn't an operating restaurant — leasable for income or sellable. Source: JD Johnston list, 6/3/2026.

The lifecycle method

One governed flow from site selection to closure — the engine that replaces six-figure platforms. Even a closed restaurant keeps contributing: its learnings feed the next site.
