Newly Public Mag Mile Capital Continues to Close Deals and Build Momentum

CHICAGO, April 20, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mag Mile Capital (ticker OTC MYSN) proudly announced that Cody Harper, VP of Originations, arranged a $20 million cash out senior mortgage in connection with the financing of a light industrial R&D/Flex property located at 355 E Trimble Road, San Jose, California – a destination for R&D companies innovating in the semiconductor and advanced manufacturing sector. 

The 96,780 square foot property is owned by 355 Trimble Owner, LLC, an entity affiliated with Chicago-based Highlands REIT Inc. (“Highlands”) and is 100% leased to Veeco Instruments, an innovative semiconductor equipment manufacturer utilizing laser annealing and advanced packaging lithography. The Sponsor, Highlands, has owned the property debt-free since acquiring it as part of a spinoff in 2016. Highlands and Veeco executed a 16-year lease in Jan 2021, which included one year of rent abatement to complete a substantial tenant build-out. This $40 million capacity expansion plan improved Veeco’s onsite engineering capabilities and doubled its manufacturing capacity relative to its existing San Jose facility. In 2022, Veeco made its first rent payment to Highlands, it relocated from the existing facility, and has shipped its first systems from the new facility. 

The $20 million (55% LTV) cash out senior lien mortgage features a 24-month term, a 5.86% fixed interest rate swap, full-term interest only payments, one 12-month extension option, and limited recourse to Highlands. Highlands approached Mag Mile Capital through a professional relationship and work history with Harper.

“We were able to attract significant lender interest and secure a loan commitment from a Texas-based regional bank that held firm on its loan pricing and cash proceeds despite ongoing interest rate increases,” said Harper. “For a Texas-based relationship bank to finance a California-located property for a Chicago-based investor at the height of a national banking crisis, is a testament to our team’s ability to effectively match capital providers with sponsors during difficult and uncertain times,” further remarked Harper. 

“We are very excited by Cody’s win. In fact, one of the chief reasons behind our decision to go public was our team members. We believe that being able to access public markets gives us the ability to invest in our existing team members and attract additional talent re-enforcing a dynamic team-based culture to further inspire inclusive growth,“ commented CEO Rushi Shah.
