Seritage Growth Properties Announces CEO Transition

New York – March 28, 2025 – Seritage Growth Properties (NYSE: SRG) (“Seritage” or the “Company”), a national owner and developer of retail, residential and mixed-use properties, today announced that the Seritage Board of Trustees and Andrea Olshan have agreed that Ms. Olshan will step down as Chief Executive Officer and President (CEO) and as a member of the Board effective as of April 11, 2025.  The Board has appointed Board Chairman Adam Metz, an independent member of the Board since 2022, as Interim CEO and President also effective as of April 11, 2025.

The decision to transition the CEO role was based on the fact that the Company has continued to pursue its shareholder approved Plan of Sale and that, since the announcement of the Company’s review of strategic alternatives in March of 2022, the Company’s portfolio has been reduced from approximately 160 assets to 15 assets.  As a result, the Company’s needs in the CEO role have been reduced, and the parties agreed that the Company should change leadership at this time.

“We thank Andrea for her considerable contributions over the last four years and her tireless work on behalf of Seritage and its shareholders.  In the face of challenging market conditions, Andrea has led the effort of effectuating our Plan of Sale, repaying over $1.3 billion of our loan facility in the process and making important strides in streamlining our Company’s operations,” said Adam Metz, Board Chairman.

“Through a turbulent market, we have accomplished so much during my four years at Seritage,” said Ms. Olshan. “This was made possible through the combination of the efforts of our dedicated management team and the support of our Board.”

Mr. Metz has experience in leadership at both public and private real estate businesses as well as deep Board experience as further detailed in the Company’s most recent Proxy Statement.  In appointing Mr. Metz as Interim CEO and President, the Board will continue to consider other alternatives for senior leadership, based on the pace of the Plan of Sale and other factors.

The Company intends the forward-looking statements to speak only as of the time made and do not undertake to update or revise them as more information becomes available, except as required by law.

Prior to the adoption of the Company’s Plan of Sale, Seritage was principally engaged in the ownership, development, redevelopment, disposition, management and leasing of diversified retail and mixed-use properties throughout the United States. Seritage will continue to actively manage each remaining location until such time as each property is sold. As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s portfolio consisted of interests in 21 properties comprised of approximately 2.7 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”) or build-to-suit leased area, and 342 acres of land. The portfolio consists of approximately 1.5 million square feet of GLA and 208 acres held by 12 consolidated properties (such properties, the “Consolidated Properties”) and 1.2 million square feet of GLA and 134 acres held by nine unconsolidated properties (such properties, the “Unconsolidated Properties”).
