Spartanburg, SC, July 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Denny's is adding to their partnership with Cookies for Kids' Cancer, a leading nonprofit organization committed to raising funds for pediatric cancer, with a new way that everyone can help. For 16 years, Denny's has supported Cookies for Kids' Cancer on a regional level, raising nearly $1.5 million to fund research for new, improved treatments. The expanded nationwide partnership will drive progress for kids who deserve 'More time, more options, and a future beyond cancer.'
In true Grand Slam® fashion, Denny's has launched a limited-edition 'Let's Strikeout Kids' Cancer' T-shirt, available now at dinerdrip.com*. All proceeds from the shirt sales will benefit Cookies for Kids' Cancer. In addition, Denny's is supporting the cause through its menu: for every Kids' menu item sold now through Spring of 2026, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to help fight pediatric cancer. And lastly, guests can also contribute by rounding up their checks to support fundraising efforts now through August 26, 2025.
'At our core, we love to feed people and serve families in our communities, which includes those directly impacted by pediatric cancer. A diagnosis can happen to any family at any time. I know this too well, as I lost my brother to cancer at a young age,' said Chris Bode, president and chief operating officer of Denny's. 'There's still so much work to be done to find a cure. Together with Cookies for Kids' Cancer, we will fund meaningful progress and get one step closer to ending the disease once and for all.'
'With Denny's nationwide presence, we can raise critical awareness and funds for pediatric cancer, the leading cause of death by disease in children. Denny's guests likely know a child affected, and the concept of being a 'Good Cookie' is something we think every Denny's guest can embrace,' said Gretchen Witt, co-founder and executive director. 'Our collaboration will directly boost the number of research grants we can fund, which lead to new treatment options and real hope for families. In fact, the very first treatment we helped to fund became available seven months after my son Liam lost his battle and has since helped countless kids.'
Guests looking to support Cookies for Kids' Cancer can head to their local Denny's, as every visit helps. Guests can also grab their very own 'Let's Strikeout Kids' Cancer' T-shirt *while supplies last at DinerDrip.com. To learn more, visit www.dennys.com.

A&R Group acquires Fairfield Inn & Suites property in Destin, Florida
Hotel development and investment company A&R Group has broadened its portfolio by acquiring the Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott in Destin, Florida, as part of its southeastern US growth plan. The deal was capitalised with an $18m budget, which encompasses conventional senior debt financing provided by Pen Air Credit Union. A&R Group has announced plans for an extensive renovation of the hotel, set to start in the fourth quarter of 2025. Expected to be completed by mid-2026, the refurbishment will encompass updates to the guest rooms, public areas, and exterior, ensuring the property meets Marriott's latest brand standards. The hotel will maintain operations under the Fairfield Inn & Suites brand, supported by a 24-year franchise agreement with Marriott, which provides access to Marriott's worldwide distribution network and a loyalty programme with over 200 million members. The Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott is located along the Emerald Coast Parkway, close to Henderson Beach State Park and the Destin Commons retail district. A&R group development president Zach Hoyt said: 'This acquisition aligns perfectly with our long-term strategy of investing in high-barrier-to-entry markets with strong year-round tourism and upside potential. 'Destin is one of the Gulf Coast's premier destinations, and this hotel offers both stable in-place income and meaningful value-add opportunity.' The acquisition of the Destin hotel increases A&R Group's portfolio to more than 25 hotels across six states, including brands from Hilton, Marriott, and IHG. This acquisition is said to be a key part of the company's strategy to grow its portfolio in regions with strong tourism and high barriers to entry. A&R Group CEO Ken Patel said: 'Our firm is focused on creating long-term value for our partners by combining operational excellence with a disciplined investment strategy. 'We're excited to bring that philosophy to the Florida Panhandle.'

Morgan Stanley's Wilson says 7200 could be in play for S&P 500 soon
-- Morgan Stanley equity strategist Michael Wilson believes the S&P 500 could rally to 7,200 by mid-2026, citing a 'rolling recovery' in earnings and supportive macro trends. 'We're leaning more toward our bull case for the S&P 500 by the middle of next year—7200 (22.5x forward EPS of 319),' Wilson wrote in a note published Monday. He added that 'earnings growth is on solid footing' and pointed to Morgan Stanley's non-PMI earnings model, which is 'pointing to mid-teens EPS growth.' Wilson described the current cycle as 'no ordinary cycle,' noting that the market capitulation seen in April marked 'the end of a rolling earnings recession that began in 2022.' In his view, the current backdrop is supported by several tailwinds, including 'positive operating leverage, AI adoption, dollar weakness, cash tax savings from the OBBBA, easy growth comparisons, pent-up demand and a high probability of Fed cuts by 1Q26.' He argued that 'the historically sharp inflection we're seeing in earnings revisions breadth confirms this process is underway,' and that the probability of achieving the bull case 'is going up.' Among sectors, Wilson reiterated his preference for Industrials, calling it Morgan Stanley's 'top sector pick.' He highlighted 'durable' earnings revisions, stable capacity utilisation, and rising C&I loans, while noting that the bank's US Multi-Industry analyst prefers names such as Rockwell Automation (NYSE:ROK), Eaton (NYSE:ETN), Trane, and Johnson Controls (NYSE:JCI) as favoured names. Although Wilson acknowledged risks, including 'elevated back-end rates, tariff-related inflation and softening seasonals,' he expects any pullbacks to be 'shallow,' and said Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) remains a 'buyer of dips.'
