New York REIT to Liquidate
22 August 2016 - 10:50PM
Dow Jones News
New York REIT Inc. said Monday that it would liquidate its
assets and turn over the proceeds to shareholders, just weeks after
it called off a merger plan following investor opposition.
The company estimates that shareholders will receive between
$8.73 and $11.50 a share. New York REIT shares closed at $10.03
Friday and are up 4.7% over the last three months.
New York REIT and JBG Cos. canceled their merger earlier this
month after it failed to gain support with shareholders.
The company said it was talking with potential buyers who were
interested in acquiring individual properties but that it would
also be open to offers for the entire company.
New York REIT was created after the financial crisis as
real-estate prices slumped.
