McDonald’s (MCD), the world’s biggest restaurant company, said Monday it reached a deal to sell its Boston Market chicken chain to private equity firm Sun Capital Partners for an undisclosed amount.

The fast-food company said in January it was exploring options for Boston Market as part of a strategy to focus on its primary hamburger chain.

In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, McDonald’s said it expected the Boston Market deal to be completed in the current quarter. It does not expect to record a loss for the sale.

As of June 30, Boston Market’s total assets were $180 million, with total liabilities of $89.1 million, according to the filing.
