ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
CIM Commercial Trust Corporation (“CIM Commercial” or the “Company”), a Maryland corporation and real estate investment trust (“REIT”), together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, primarily owns and operates Class A and creative office real assets in vibrant and improving metropolitan communities throughout the United States. The Company, supported by the broad real estate capabilities of CIM Group, L.P. (“CIM Group”), seeks to focus on the acquisition, ownership, operation and development of cash flowing creative office, multifamily, retail, parking, infill industrial and limited service hospitality real assets in communities qualified by CIM Group. These communities are located in areas that include traditional downtown areas and suburban main streets, which have high barriers to entry, high population density, positive population trends and a propensity for growth. The Company was originally organized in 1993 as PMC Commercial Trust (“PMC Commercial”), a Texas real estate investment trust.
On July 8, 2013, PMC Commercial entered into a merger agreement with CIM Urban REIT, LLC (“CIM REIT”), an affiliate of CIM Group, and subsidiaries of the respective parties. CIM REIT was a private commercial REIT and was the owner of CIM Urban Partners, L.P. (“CIM Urban”). The merger was completed on March 11, 2014 (the “Acquisition Date”).
The Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), is currently traded on the Nasdaq Global Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbol “CMCT”, and on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the “TASE”) under the ticker symbol “CMCT-L.” The Company’s Series L preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Series L Preferred Stock”), is currently traded on Nasdaq and on the TASE, in each case under the ticker symbol “CMCTP.” The Company has authorized for issuance 900,000,000 shares of common stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock (“Preferred Stock”).
The Company filed Articles of Amendment (the “Reverse Stock Split Amendment”) to effectuate a one-for-three reverse stock split of the Company’s Common Stock, effective on September 3, 2019 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). Pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split Amendment, every three shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split were converted into one share of Common Stock, par value $0.003 per share. In connection with the Reverse Split Amendment, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to revert the par value of the Common Stock issued and outstanding from $0.003 per share to $0.001 per share, effective as of September 3, 2019, following the effective time of the Reverse Split Amendment. All Common Stock and per share of Common Stock amounts set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been adjusted to give retroactive effect to the Reverse Stock Split, unless otherwise stated.
The Company conducted a continuous public offering of Series A Preferred Units from October 2016 through January 2020, where each Series A Preferred Unit consisted of one share of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (collectively, the “Series A Preferred Stock”) with an initial stated value of $25.00 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Series A Preferred Stock Stated Value”), and one warrant (collectively, the “Series A Preferred Warrants”) to purchase 0.25 of a share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment (Note 10). Proceeds and expenses from the sale of the Series A Preferred Units were allocated to the Series A Preferred Stock and Series A Preferred Warrants using their relative fair values on the date of issuance.
Since February 2020, the Company has been conducting a continuous public offering of Series A Preferred Stock and Series D preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series D Preferred Stock”), with an initial stated value of $25.00 per share, subject to adjustment (the “Series D Preferred Stock Stated Value”). The selling price of the Series A Preferred Stock in the offering has been, and is expected to continue to be, $25.00 per share and the selling price of the Series D Preferred Stock was $25.00 per share for all sales that occurred from the beginning of the offering to and including June 28, 2020 and is expected to be, and since June 29, 2020, has been, $24.50 per share through the end of the life of the offering.
In June 2021, the Company conducted a rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) pursuant to which the Company issued an aggregate of 8,521,589 shares of Common Stock at a subscription price of $9.25 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $78.8 million before issuance costs of $1.9 million.
CIM Commercial has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a REIT, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
