Kimco Realty Announces Partial Monetization of its Investment in Albertsons Companies, Inc.
– Company Expects to Receive its Allocable Share of Proceeds –
– Kimco Will Subsequently Maintain a 7.5% Ownership Interest in Albertsons –
JERICHO, New York, May 20, 2020 - Kimco Realty Corp. (NYSE: KIM), one of North America’s largest publicly traded owners and operators of open-air, grocery-anchored shopping centers and mixed-use assets, today announced that the company will partially monetize its investment in Albertsons Companies, Inc. (Albertsons) in conjunction with Albertsons’ $1.75 billion sale of convertible preferred stock.
As outlined in the Albertsons announcement, the convertible preferred stock represents, on an as-converted basis, approximately 17.5% of pro forma common stock outstanding of Albertsons, with proceeds to be used to repurchase a portion of the common stock owned by Albertsons’ current shareholders. Kimco, which currently holds approximately a 9.29% ownership interest in Albertsons, expects to receive its allocable portion of the share repurchase and will subsequently retain approximately a 7.5% ownership interest in Albertsons after the completion of this transaction, which is expected to close by June 15, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions. Kimco expects to recognize a gain which will be determined upon closing of this transaction.
“Our shareholders continue to benefit from the company’s Albertsons investment, especially at a time when liquidity remains paramount,” stated Conor Flynn, Kimco’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our Albertsons investment continues to be the hallmark of Kimco’s Plus business, which has a long and successful history of investing in real estate rich retailers and other companies. With our remaining 7.5% residual ownership interest in Albertsons, this investment will further benefit our shareholders well into the future while strengthening and diversifying Kimco’s balance sheet.”
History
In 2006, a Cerberus-led investment group acquired 661 non-core Albertsons stores from Albertsons, Inc. Kimco invested approximately $51 million. In 2013, the investment group acquired the remaining Albertsons stores, as well as the grocery banners of Jewel-Osco, Acme, Shaws and Star Markets, from SUPERVALU for $3.3 billion, with Kimco investing an additional $37 million. At that time, Kimco purchased $33.6 million of SUPERVALU common stock, which was subsequently sold for $74 million resulting in approximately a $40 million gain. The consortium then acquired the Safeway grocery banner in 2015, with Kimco investing $85.3 million. Prior to any proceeds received from the repurchase of common stock held by Kimco in conjunction with Albertsons preferred stock sale, Kimco has received in excess of $300 million in cash distributions from its Albertsons investment, inclusive of the proceeds from the SUPERVALU stock sale.
