Insights
Seritage Growth Properties has reported a mixed set of Q4 and full-year 2024 results as it continues executing its Plan of Sale strategy. The company generated
The financial position shows concerning weakness with a full-year net loss of
The execution of their liquidation strategy faces significant headwinds. Management acknowledges "challenging market conditions" creating "downward pricing pressure on all assets" that may impact Plan of Sale proceeds and shareholder distributions. The company has also been hit with securities litigation alleging false/misleading disclosures regarding internal controls and asset valuations.
Adding to concerns, CEO Andrea Olshan is stepping down effective April 11, with Board Chairman Adam Metz taking over as Interim CEO. This leadership transition during a critical execution phase of their Plan of Sale creates additional uncertainty for investors.
Seritage's portfolio monetization continues progressing, albeit with signals of market resistance. Their asset disposition strategy now has a majority of remaining properties slated to enter the market in 2025, including large development sites, smaller leased properties, and vacant assets. However, transaction timing appears to be extending, with the company now characterizing sales as having "varying anticipated sales processes and closing timelines."
The multi-tenant retail portfolio shows modest leasing momentum with
Future sales projections reveal the quality spectrum of remaining assets. The most valuable properties are concentrated in Gateway Markets, including one potentially worth
Most concerning is the PSA negotiation for a "premier development asset" with an extended closing timeline due to required master plan amendments, suggesting buyers are demanding significant contingencies and extended due diligence periods. Combined with the CEO transition, these factors indicate the remaining asset dispositions will likely face elongated timelines and potential valuation challenges. The cautionary language surrounding the Plan of Sale suggests increasing risk to shareholder return expectations.
"This quarter we have made strides to ready more assets for sale: signing critical leases, achieving partnership approvals, securing zoning and other important milestones. As a result, we anticipate that a majority of our assets, whether fully or partially for certain assets anticipated to be sold in multiple transactions, will be in the market in 2025. These include a mix of large development sites, smaller leased properties and vacant assets, all of which have varying anticipated sales processes and closing timelines. In sum, although we have had fewer closings this quarter than previous ones, we have made significant progress towards the completion of our Plan of Sale” said Andrea Olshan, CEO & President.

Strategic Review
At the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders on October 24, 2022, Seritage shareholders approved the Company’s Plan of Sale. The strategic review process remains ongoing as the Company executes the Plan of Sale, and the Company remains open minded to pursuing value maximizing alternatives, including a potential sale of the Company. There can be no assurance regarding the success of the process.
Appointment of New Chief Executive Officer and President
On March 28, 2025, we announced that our Board of Trustees and Andrea L. Olshan have agreed that Ms. Olshan will step down as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President (“CEO”) and as a member of the Board effective as of April 11, 2025 (the “Separation Date”). Also on March 28, 2025, we announced that our Board of Trustees appointed Board Chairman Adam Metz as Interim CEO as of the Separation Date. In his role as Interim CEO, Mr. Metz will serve as the principal executive officer of the Company until his successor is duly appointed and qualified, or until his earlier termination or removal, and will receive a monthly salary of
Market Update
As the Company has previously disclosed, the Company, along with the commercial real estate market as a whole, has experienced and continues to experience challenging market conditions as a result of a variety of factors. These conditions have applied and continue to apply downward pricing pressure on all of our assets. In making decisions regarding whether and when to transact on each of the Company’s remaining assets, the Company has considered and will continue to consider various factors including, but not limited to, the breadth of the buyer universe, macroeconomic conditions, the availability and cost of financing, as well as corporate, operating and other capital expenses required to carry the asset. If these challenging market conditions persist, then we expect that they will impact the Plan of Sale proceeds from our assets and the amounts and timing of distributions to shareholders.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company makes references to NOI-cash basis and NOI-cash basis at share which are financial measures that include adjustments to accounting principles generally accepted in
Neither of NOI-cash basis or NOI-cash basis at share are measures that (i) represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP; (ii) are indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs, including the ability to make distributions; (iii) are alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity; or (iv) should be considered alternatives to net income (which is determined in accordance with GAAP) for purposes of evaluating the Company’s operating performance. Reconciliations of these measures to the respective GAAP measures the Company deems most comparable have been provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
Net Operating Income (Loss)-cash basis ("NOI-cash basis”) and Net Operating Income (Loss)-cash basis at share ("NOI-cash basis at share")
NOI-cash basis is defined as income from property operations less property operating expenses, adjusted for variable items such as termination fee income, as well as non-cash items such as straight-line rent and amortization of lease intangibles. Other real estate companies may use different methodologies for calculating NOI-cash basis, and accordingly the Company’s depiction of NOI-cash basis may not be comparable to other real estate companies. The Company believes NOI-cash basis provides useful information regarding Seritage, its financial condition, and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level.
The Company also uses NOI-cash basis at share, which includes its proportional share of Unconsolidated Properties. The Company does not control any of the joint ventures constituting such properties and NOI-cash basis at share does not reflect our legal claim with respect to the economic activity of such joint ventures. We have included this adjustment because the Company believes this form of presentation offers insights into the financial performance and condition of the Company as a whole given the Company’s ownership of Unconsolidated Properties that are accounted for under GAAP using the equity method. The operating agreements of the Unconsolidated Properties generally allow each investor to receive cash distributions to the extent there is available cash from operations. The amount of cash each investor receives is based upon specific provisions of each operating agreement and varies depending on certain factors including the amount of capital contributed by each investor and whether any investors are entitled to preferential distributions.
The Company also considers NOI-cash basis and NOI-cash basis at share to be a helpful supplemental measure of its operating performance because it excludes from NOI variable items such as termination fee income, as well as non-cash items such as straight-line rent and amortization of lease intangibles.
Due to the adjustments noted, NOI-cash basis and NOI-cash basis at share should only be used as an alternative measure of the Company’s financial performance.
Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans and strategies, anticipated events or trends and similar expressions concerning matters that are not historical facts. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” "will," "approximately," or "anticipates" or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases that are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, which may cause actual results to differ significantly from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: declines in retail, real estate and general economic conditions; risks relating to redevelopment activities; contingencies to the commencement of rent under leases; the terms of the Company’s indebtedness and other legal requirements to which the Company is subject; failure to achieve expected occupancy and/or rent levels within the projected time frame or at all; the impact of ongoing negative operating cash flow on the Company’s ability to fund operations and ongoing development; the Company’s ability to access or obtain sufficient sources of financing to fund the Company’s liquidity needs; environmental, health, safety and land use laws and regulations; and possible acts of war, terrorist activity or other acts of violence or cybersecurity incidents. For additional discussion of these and other applicable risks, assumptions and uncertainties, see the “Risk Factors” and forward-looking statement disclosure contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and any subsequent Form 10-Qs.
