Alexander & Baldwin Leaves Stock Market After Major Sale
The $2.3 billion all-cash deal offers A&B shareholders a 40% premium and includes plans to invest over $100 million to enhance the Hawaiian commercial real estate portfolio.
- Late Monday, A&B disclosed a definitive all-cash merger agreement that values the company at about $2.3 billion, led by MW Group, Blackstone Real Estate, and DivcoWest.
- Representing a 40.0% premium to the Dec 8, 2025, close, A&B shareholders will receive $21.20 per share, with a $0.35 dividend payable January 8, 2026, reducing consideration.
- Its portfolio spans roughly 4.0 million square feet across 21 retail centers, 14 industrial assets, four office properties and 146 acres, while shares surged 37.5% adding roughly $300M in value.
- Expected to close in Q1 2026, the deal requires shareholder votes and customary regulatory steps, with A&B's common stock delisted from the New York Stock Exchange after the A&B Board of Directors' unanimous approval.
- With 155 years in Hawai'i, A&B's legacy anchors the transaction, and the Investor Group said it will retain A&B's name, Honolulu headquarters, Hawai'i-based management, and disclose risks in SEC filings.
