CoreCivic Completes Sale of Three Non-Core Assets For $326 Million
Brentwood, Tenn. - June 29, 2021 -
CoreCivic, Inc. (NYSE: CXW)
(the Company) announced today that it has consummated the sale of 100% of the membership interests of SSA Baltimore Holdings, LLC, a wholly-owned unrestricted subsidiary of the Company and the owner of the approximately 541,000 square-foot Social Security Administration office building in Baltimore, Maryland ("SSA-Baltimore"). Earlier in the second quarter of 2021, the Company completed the sale of two additional properties, its approximately 277,000 square-foot office property ("Capital Commerce Center") and its approximately 217,000 square-foot warehouse property ("NARA Property") in a single transaction. These three properties were sold for an aggregate sales price of $326.0 million. The Company had purchased all three properties in 2018 in separate transactions for an aggregate gross purchase price of $293.6 million.
Damon Hininger, President and CEO of CoreCivic, stated, "The completion of these asset sales is another important example of our focus on strengthening our balance sheet and creating long-term shareholder value. Including net proceeds of nearly $30.0 million generated from the sales of 42 non-core government-leased assets in the fourth quarter of 2020, we have exceeded our targeted net proceeds from the sale of non-core assets of up to $150.0 million announced in August 2020, in connection with our decision to revoke our election as a real estate investment trust. Hininger continued, "Combining our resilient cash flows with the sales of our non-core assets, we continue to make significant progress toward our goal of reducing our debt ratio to a range of 2.25x to 2.75x".
Concurrent with the sale of these three properties, the Company used $194.4 million of the aggregate sales proceeds to fully repay two non-recourse mortgage notes associated with SSA-Baltimore and Capital Commerce Center, including prepayment premiums of $32.5 million. The total outstanding balances of the non-recourse mortgage notes, both of which had interest rates of 4.5%, were $161.9 million on the dates sold. The sale of these three non-core government-leased properties generated net proceeds of nearly $130.0 million after repayment of the non-recourse mortgage notes and other transaction-related costs.
