Retail Value Inc. Announces Sale of Continental U.S. Property Portfolio and Declares Dividends on Series A Preferred Shares and Common Shares

On October 1, 2021, Retail Value Inc. (NYSE: RVI) closed on the sale of the previously announced portfolio of five continental U.S. properties for $264 million prior to closing costs, prorations and other closing adjustments. Subsequent to the transaction, the Company owns interests in three remaining properties in the continental U.S.

Net proceeds received at closing were approximately $242.4 million, excluding $4.4 million of escrows established at closing, which may be released to the Company in the event certain leasing activity is completed within 180 days of closing. Net proceeds from the transaction, as well as cash on hand, are expected to be utilized for cash dividends on the Company’s Series A Preferred and Common Shares.

“We are excited to complete this portfolio sale bringing our total gross proceeds from property sales since Retail Value Inc.’s spin-off in July 2018 to $1.8 billion,” commented David R. Lukes, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The continued successful execution of the Company’s business plan puts RVI in a position to repay the amount currently owed to SITE Centers on its preferred investment and declare dividends to common shareholders.”
