DENNY’S CORPORATION is a Public Limited Company registered in United States under 4023143, and its current status with South Carolina Secretary of State is active. The company was incorporated on 1 January 1953 and lists its registered address as Spartanburg, United States. 5 shareholders are on record for DENNY’S CORPORATION, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from South Carolina Secretary of State and was last updated on 9 September 2026.

Shareholders

5

Five shareholders are currently on record for DENNY’S CORPORATION, reflecting the stock ledger maintained under state corporate law (e.g. §219 of the Delaware General Corporation Law) rather than a public filing.

The largest of these is Blackrock Inc., holding 9.4% — the largest recorded stake — followed by Boston Partners at 9.3%; the remaining 3 shareholders shown hold smaller stakes.

The register reports 20 shareholders in total, though only the top 5 by holding are shown in this view.

Because every shareholder shown is a company rather than an individual, the ownership chain continues above this level, and no beneficial owner can be established from this filing alone.

Officers

5

The Director of DENNY’S CORPORATION on record is GAIL SHARP MYERS; 5 officers are shown here, filed with South Carolina Secretary of State.

The register reports 118 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Group Structure

DENNY’S CORPORATION sits 1 level below its ultimate parent, Sparkle Topco Corp., registered in United States. 8 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 1 jurisdiction. The full chain up to Sparkle Topco Corp. is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by DENNY’S CORPORATION's own shareholder record. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 8 subsidiaries span United States jurisdiction, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. One of the 8 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
