Credit & Restructuring Analyst

OPI faces Nasdaq delisting risk and missed key interest payments, signaling heightened credit distress.

Office Properties Income Trust has received notice that its common shares are subject to delisting from Nasdaq after failing to meet the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement by September 22, 2025. The company indicates it does not expect to appeal, so trading is expected to shift off Nasdaq after October 6, 2025, which can reduce liquidity and visibility for shareholders.

More critically for creditors, on September 30, 2025 the company did not pay approximately $27.4 million of interest on its 9.000% Senior Secured Notes due September 2029 and approximately $3.4 million of interest on its 3.250% Senior Secured Notes due March 2027. While the indentures provide a 30‑day grace period before an event of default, non-payment at the due date is a clear sign of liquidity strain.

The company has also notified Wells Fargo, as administrative agent under its credit agreement, that it expects one or more defaults to occur in connection with the anticipated delisting and missed note interest. These developments place negotiations with lenders and noteholders, as part of ongoing restructuring efforts, at the center of the company’s near-term outlook, with the 30‑day grace periods as important timing markers.

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

As previously disclosed, on March 25, 2025, we received a notification letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, or Nasdaq, informing us that, for at least 30 consecutive business days prior to such notification, the bid price of our common shares of beneficial interest, $.01 par value per share, or our common shares, had closed below $1.00 per common share, which is the minimum required closing bid price for continued listing on Nasdaq pursuant to Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we were provided a 180 calendar day grace period, or until September 22, 2025, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price continued listing standard.

On September 25, 2025, we received a notification letter from Nasdaq informing us that we have not regained compliance with Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) and that our common shares are subject to delisting from Nasdaq. If we do not appeal this determination in accordance with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, our common shares will be delisted at the opening of business on October 6, 2025. We do not expect to appeal this determination.
