Southfield, MI, May 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sun Communities, Inc. (NYSE:SUI) (the "Company" or "Sun"), a real estate investment trust ("REIT") that owns and operates or has an interest in manufactured housing ("MH") and recreational vehicle ("RV") communities, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its UK assets, including the Park Holidays business ("Park Holidays") to funds affiliated with Aermont Capital ("Aermont") in an all-cash transaction with an enterprise value of £768 million (or approximately $1.03 billion).

Charles Young, Sun's Chief Executive Officer, commented: "This exciting transaction allows us to focus on and drive growth through our core North American MH and RV platform. We will remain disciplined in our capital allocation approach, which includes investing in our high-quality communities, identifying attractive external MH and RV growth opportunities and returning capital to shareholders.

We would like to thank the entire Park Holidays team for their commitment, partnership and contributions throughout our ownership. We appreciate all that we have accomplished together and believe the business is well-positioned for continued success under Aermont's ownership."
