A cross-office, cross-practice Ropes & Gray team advised Domino’s Pizza on a $1.675 billion refinancing announced March 16. The new securitization facility replaces an April 2007 “whole-business” securitized debt facility.

Domino’s Pizza, listed on the NYSE under the symbol DPZ, had global retail sales of over $6.9 billion in 2011 with a network of 9,742 franchised and company-owned stores in the United States and more than 70 international markets.

The Ropes & Gray team that worked on the Domino’s matter was led by finance partner Win Minot and included securities & public companies partner Marko Zatylny, real estate partner Rich Gordet, IP transactions partner Ed Black, business restructuring partner Jim Wilton, private equity transactions partner Craig Marcus, and tax partners Eric Elfman and Rom Watson.
