CapitalSpring Finance Company, LLC El Pollo Loco Holdings, Inc. LOCO

Stake: 3.80% Shares: 1,111,381 CUSIP: 268603107 Class: Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share
AI Analyst Brief conf: high
CapitalSpring is signaling an exit from its LOCO position — the amendment explicitly flags potential disposal/distribution of remaining shares and states reps do not currently intend further management discussions, a clear wind-down of prior engagement. At 3.8% and declining (short interest also dropped 13% recently), this is a seller telegraphing the door, not a buyer pressing for change.

Item 4 — Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows: The information set forth in Item 5(c) of this Amendment No. 2 is incorporated by reference into this Item 4. The Reporting Persons may, at any time, and subject to compliance with applicable securities laws and regulatory requirements, dispose of or distribute some or all of their remaining Shares of common stock or other securities of the Issuer depending on various factors, including, but not limited to, the price of the Shares, the terms and conditions of the transaction and prevailing market conditions, as well as the liquidity and diversification objectives of the Reporting Persons. Representatives of the Reporting Persons do not currently intend to have additional discussions with the Issuer's management or other third parties regarding the matters discussed in Item 4 of Amendment No. 1 to this Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons expect to continuously review their investment in the Issuer and may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position and/or change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
