A multi-instrument package, with capital drawn over time as the business grows, is exactly the kind of structure where the tax analysis has to be done seat by seat.

Trimontium, the London-based alternative asset manager, announced on September 10, 2026 that it has provided a $325 million bespoke capital solution to Authentic Restaurant Brands (ARB), a portfolio company of Garnett Station Partners. The package spans debt, hybrid, and equity instruments, with capital available over time as growth opportunities emerge.

La Presa Partners acted as tax adviser to Trimontium. Kirkland & Ellis acted as legal adviser and Evercore as financial adviser to ARB.

Vlado Spasov, Trimontium’s Founder and Chief Investment Officer, said the investment “reflects what Trimontium was built to do: serve as a long-term, trusted capital partner, working directly with sponsors and management teams to design capital around their own objectives.”

Our role covered the U.S. tax structuring of the investment for a non-U.S. manager and its investors. We do not comment on the terms.
