Aimco (NYSE: AIV) has announced the expansion of its strategic process to maximize shareholder value, following a $520 million agreement to sell its Brickell Assemblage properties in Miami. The buyer has made a non-refundable deposit of $38 million, and Aimco plans to return the majority of net proceeds to shareholders.

Post-sale, Aimco's portfolio will consist of over 5,200 apartment homes, nearly 1,000 newly constructed units approaching stabilization, one Miami waterfront development, and a pipeline with 7.7 million square feet of development potential. Since 2020, the company has achieved annual same store NOI growth exceeding 7.6%, completed $1.3 billion in development projects, and will have closed over $1.7 billion in asset sales.

Due to shares trading at a significant discount to estimated private market value, the Board is exploring additional alternatives, including potential sales of business components, accelerated asset sales, or a company sale/merger. Morgan Stanley is serving as financial advisor.

Aimco (NYSE: AIV) ha annunciato l'espansione del suo processo strategico per massimizzare il valore per gli azionisti, dopo un accordo di vendita di 520 milioni di dollari per le sue proprietà Brickell Assemblage a Miami. L'acquirente ha effettuato un deposito non rimborsabile di 38 milioni di dollari, e Aimco prevede di restituire la maggior parte dei proventi netti agli azionisti.

Dopo la vendita, il portafoglio di Aimco consisterà in oltre 5.200 appartamenti, quasi 1.000 unità di nuova costruzione prossime alla stabilizzazione, uno sviluppo fronte mare a Miami e un pipeline con 7,7 milioni di piedi quadrati di potenziale di sviluppo. Dal 2020, l'azienda ha registrato una crescita annuale del NOI dello stesso negozio superiore al 7,6%, ha completato progetti di sviluppo per 1,3 miliardi di dollari e avrà chiuso oltre 1,7 miliardi di dollari in vendite di attivi.

A causa delle azioni che vengono scambiate a un significativo sconto rispetto al valore stimato di mercato privato, il Consiglio sta esplorando ulteriori alternative, tra cui potenziali vendite di componenti aziendali, vendite accelerate di asset, o una vendita/fusione dell'azienda. Morgan Stanley funge da consulente finanziario.

Insights

The announced sale of Aimco's Brickell Assemblage for $520 million and broader strategic review represents a pivotal shift in the company's trajectory. The $38 million non-refundable deposit signals strong buyer commitment and reduces transaction risk. The deal's pricing implies a significant premium to book value, validating management's asset value thesis.

Post-transaction, Aimco's streamlined portfolio of 5,200 apartments plus 1,000 stabilizing units presents a more focused investment thesis. The 7.6% same-store NOI growth demonstrates strong operational execution, while $1.3 billion in completed developments showcases value-creation capabilities. The strategic review could unlock additional value through various scenarios including portfolio sales or a full company sale.

The persistent trading discount to private market value creates an attractive arbitrage opportunity. With $1.7 billion in asset sales post-Brickell transaction, Aimco has demonstrated execution ability in value realization. The Morgan Stanley-led process suggests serious consideration of transformative options beyond incremental asset sales.

This strategic initiative marks a watershed moment for Aimco's capital allocation strategy. The board's decision to explore comprehensive alternatives, including potential sale scenarios, reflects mounting pressure to address the public-private market valuation gap. The commitment to return the majority of Brickell sale proceeds to shareholders demonstrates strong capital discipline and alignment with shareholder interests.

The formation of a dedicated Investment Committee comprising four independent directors ensures proper oversight and governance of the strategic review process. Morgan Stanley's engagement adds credibility and suggests a thorough evaluation of strategic alternatives. The company's track record of executing $1.7 billion in asset sales positions it well for larger-scale transactions.

The timing aligns with broader real estate market dynamics where private capital continues to seek quality multifamily assets. The strategic optionality created by the simplified portfolio structure post-Brickell sale enhances the probability of value-maximizing outcomes, whether through individual asset sales, portfolio transactions, or a full company sale.

DENVER, Jan. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As previously announced on December 30, 2024, Apartment Investment and Management Company ("Aimco" or the "Company") (NYSE: AIV) entered into an agreement to sell the properties located at 1001 Brickell Bay Drive and 1111 Brickell Bay Drive in Miami, Florida (together referred to as the "Brickell Assemblage") for a gross price of $520 million. The buyer has completed due diligence and has made a non-refundable deposit of $38 million.  Aimco intends to return the majority of the net proceeds from the transaction, after accounting for the associated property-level debt and deferred tax liability, to shareholders.

The pending sale of the Brickell Assemblage marks an important step in Aimco's efforts to simplify its holdings and to unlock value for shareholders.  Upon closing of the Brickell Assemblage transaction, which is subject to certain closing conditions and extension options, Aimco will primarily consist of a portfolio of more than 5,200 well-located apartment homes that we believe is well-positioned to experience strong revenue growth, nearly 1,000 newly constructed apartment homes that are expected to be occupancy stabilized within the next 12 months, one active development project located on Miami's waterfront, and a deep pipeline for future growth that includes more than 7.7 million square feet of development potential.

Since the spin-off of Apartment Income REIT Corp. in December of 2020, Aimco has delivered consistently strong operational performance with average annual same store NOI growth of greater than 7.6%, successfully completed more than $1.3 billion of development projects, secured attractively priced long-dated financing, significantly improved corporate governance, and pro forma for the Brickell sale, will have closed more than $1.7 billion of asset sales and returned substantial capital to shareholders, including the special dividend slated for January 31, 2025, as previously announced.

These results were achieved by a dedicated and experienced team that is active in its approach to investment and portfolio management and prudent in the allocation of shareholder capital. We are pleased with the transformation of the Aimco portfolio and the objective results delivered over the past four years.  However, our shares continue to trade at a meaningful discount to our estimate of the private market value of our assets and investment platform, which we believe has limited our ability to fund new investment opportunities and accelerate growth.

Therefore, the Aimco Board of Directors has decided to explore additional alternatives in an effort to further unlock and maximize shareholder value. The exploration will expand upon Aimco's ongoing efforts such as reducing exposure to development activity and monetizing certain assets, and include, but not be limited to, exploration of potential sales of the major components of the business (in one or a series of transactions), an acceleration of individual asset sales, or a sale or merger of the Company as a whole.  Our guiding principle will be to produce an outcome that delivers maximum value to Aimco shareholders.  The strategic process is being overseen by Aimco's Investment Committee, comprised of four independent Aimco Board Members. Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC is serving as financial advisor to Aimco.

There can be no assurance that this expanded strategic process will result in any transaction or transactions or other strategic changes or outcomes, and the timing or outcome of any such event is similarly uncertain. Aimco does not intend to disclose or comment on developments related to the foregoing unless or until it determines that further disclosure is appropriate or required.
