Approximately $465 Million of Proceeds Used to Paydown Debt
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., May 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AH Realty Trust (NYSE:AHRT) ("AHRT") today announced the closing of the sale of nine of the 11 properties included in the Company's previously announced multifamily portfolio transaction with affiliates of Harbor Group International, LLC ("HGI"). The nine properties sold for a gross sales price of $485 million. Two multifamily properties – Greenside and Premier – remain under contract to affiliates of HGI. The Company anticipates closing on the $50 million sale of Greenside by the end of 2026 and the $27 million sale of Premier by mid-2027.
"Completing the sale of these properties marks another significant step in our transformation as we continue to sharpen our focus on our high-quality retail and mixed-use office portfolio," said Shawn Tibbetts, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of AH Realty Trust. "We received an attractive valuation for these properties, and the proceeds will allow us to accelerate our deleveraging and strengthen our balance sheet. We are creating a leaner, more agile business designed to drive profitable growth and value creation for shareholders."
The Company intends to deploy the sale proceeds toward debt reduction, accelerating progress toward its long-term leverage target of 5.5x – 6.5x net debt to total adjusted EBITDA.
