SANTA MONICA, Calif., Feb. 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Macerich Company (NYSE:MAC) (the "Company" or "Macerich"), a leading owner, operator, and developer of major retail properties in top markets, today announced that it has closed an amended and restated $900 million revolving credit facility.

Macerich increased the size of the facility from $650 million to $900 million, extended the maturity from January 2027 to March 2030 (inclusive of a 12-month extension option), and lowered the current pricing grid from a spread range of 200 to 250 basis points over SOFR to 180 to 220 basis points over SOFR.
