1. Presentation of Financial Statements and Significant Accounting Policies |
General These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. (HHH or the Company) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). References to HHH, the Company, we, us, and our refer to Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, which includes The Howard Hughes Corporation (HHC), unless otherwise specifically stated. References to HHC refer to The Howard Hughes Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries unless otherwise specifically stated.
In accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Readers of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report) should refer to the Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. audited Consolidated Financial Statements, which are included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2025 (the Annual Report). In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and equity for the interim periods have been included. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025, and future fiscal years.
Seaport Entertainment Spinoff On July 31, 2024, the spinoff of Seaport Entertainment Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (Seaport Entertainment or SEG) was completed (the Spinoff). SEG included HHH’s entertainment-related assets in New York and Las Vegas, including the Seaport in Lower Manhattan, the Las Vegas Aviators Triple-A Minor League Baseball team and the Las Vegas Ballpark, as well as the Company’s ownership stake in Jean-Georges Restaurants and other partnerships, and an interest in and to 80% of the air rights above the Fashion Show Mall in Las Vegas.
Under the terms of the separation, each stockholder who held HHH common stock as of the close of business on July 29, 2024, the record date for the distribution, received one share of SEG common stock for every nine shares of HHH common stock held as of the close of business on such date. SEG common stock began trading on the NYSE American stock exchange on August 1, 2024, under the symbol “SEG”.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany balances and transactions. The Company also consolidates certain variable interest entities (VIEs) in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 810 Consolidation. The outside equity interests in certain entities controlled by the Company are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as noncontrolling interests.
As the Spinoff represents a strategic shift in the Company’s operations, the results of SEG are presented as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and, as such, have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), and Equity are presented on a consolidated basis for both continuing operations and discontinued operations. The disclosures presented in the notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented on a continuing operations basis unless otherwise noted. See Note 2 - Discontinued Operations for additional information.
Management has evaluated for disclosure or recognition all material events occurring subsequent to the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements up to the date and time this Quarterly Report was filed.
Restricted Cash Restricted cash reflects amounts segregated in escrow accounts in the name of the Company, primarily related to escrowed condominium deposits by buyers and other amounts related to taxes, insurance, and legally restricted security deposits and leasing costs.

Accounts Receivable, net Accounts receivable, net includes straight-line rent receivables, tenant receivables, and other receivables. On a quarterly basis, management reviews the lease-related receivables, including straight-line rent receivables and tenant receivables, for collectability. This analysis includes a review of past due accounts and considers factors such as the credit quality of tenants, current economic conditions, and changes in customer payment trends. When full collection of a lease-related receivable or future lease payment is deemed to be not probable, a reserve for the receivable balance is charged against rental revenue and future rental revenue is recognized on a cash basis. The Company also records reserves for estimated losses if the estimated loss amount is probable and can be reasonably estimated.
Other receivables are primarily related to short-term trade receivables. The Company is exposed to credit losses through the sale of goods and services to customers and assesses its exposure to credit loss related to these receivables on a quarterly basis based on historical collection experience and future expectations by portfolio. The Company records an allowance for credit losses if the estimated loss amount is probable.
The following table represents the components of Accounts receivable, net of amounts considered uncollectible, in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets:

Accounts receivable, net (b) | $ | 120,521 | | | $ | 105,185 | |
(a)As of March 31, 2025, the related-party receivable balance is primarily due from the Floreo joint venture. This balance includes reimbursable overhead costs incurred by the Company on behalf of Floreo and a $6.0 million guaranty fee associated with the increased borrowing capacity of Floreo’s bond financing in the first quarter of 2025. See Note 3 - Investments in Unconsolidated Ventures for additional information on the Floreo joint venture and Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies for additional information on the guaranty fee.
(b)As of March 31, 2025, the total reserve balance for amounts considered uncollectible was $8.5 million, comprised of $8.4 million attributable to lease-related receivables and $0.1 million attributable to the allowance for credit losses related to other accounts receivables. As of December 31, 2024, the total reserve balance was $8.2 million, comprised of $8.1 million attributable to lease-related receivables and $0.1 million attributable to the allowance for credit losses related to other accounts receivables.

Sale of MUD Receivables In September 2024, the Company entered into a sales transaction of MUD receivables, in which it transferred the reimbursement rights for $186.0 million of existing MUD receivables and $9.3 million of related accrued interest, as well as $40.0 million of anticipated future MUD receivables, for total cash consideration of $176.7 million. Using the relative fair value method, $146.7 million of the cash consideration was allocated to the sale of the existing MUD receivables and $30.0 million was allocated to the sale of the anticipated future MUD receivables. As a result of the sale, the Company derecognized the existing MUD receivables and related accrued interest, resulting in a loss on sale of $48.7 million in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company has recorded a liability related to the allocated amount of anticipated future MUD receivables, which is accounted for using the amortized cost method and is included in Accounts payable and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOOTNOTES |

Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, capitalization of development costs, provision for income taxes, recoverable amounts of receivables and deferred tax assets, initial valuations of tangible and intangible assets acquired, and the related useful lives of assets upon which depreciation and amortization is based. Estimates and assumptions have also been made with respect to future revenues and costs, and the fair value of warrants, debt, and options granted. Master Planned Communities (MPC) cost of sales estimates are highly judgmental as they are sensitive to cost escalation, sales price escalation, and lot absorption, which are subject to judgment and affected by expectations about future market or economic conditions. Additionally, the future cash flow estimates and fair values used for impairment analysis are highly judgmental and reflect current and projected trends in rental, occupancy, pricing, development costs, sales pace, capitalization rates, selling costs, and estimated holding periods for the applicable assets. Both MPC cost of sale estimates and estimates used in impairment analysis are affected by expectations about future market or economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these and other estimates.
Consolidated Variable Interest Entity At March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company owned an 88.0% interest in Teravalis, the Company’s newest large-scale master planned community in the West Valley of Phoenix, Arizona, and a third party owned the remaining 12.0%. Teravalis was determined to be a VIE, and as the Company has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact its economic performance, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary and consolidates Teravalis.
Under the terms of the LLC agreement, cash distributions and the recognition of income-producing activities will be pro rata based on economic ownership interest. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included $542.4 million of MPC assets, $0.7 million of Accounts payable and other liabilities, and $65.1 million of Noncontrolling interest related to Teravalis. As of December 31, 2024, the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included $542.1 million of MPC assets, $0.5 million of Accounts payable and other liabilities, and $65.1 million of Noncontrolling interest related to Teravalis.
Noncontrolling Interests As of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, noncontrolling interests were primarily related to the 12.0% noncontrolling interest in Teravalis.
Financing Receivable Credit Losses The Company is exposed to credit losses through the sale of goods and services to the Company’s customers. Receivables held by the Company primarily relate to short-term trade receivables, discussed above, and financing receivables, which include MUD receivables, Special Improvement District (SID) bonds, Tax Increment Financing (TIF) receivables, net investments in lease receivables, and notes receivable. The Company assesses its exposure to credit loss based on historical collection experience and future expectations by portfolio segment. Historical collection experience is evaluated on a quarterly basis by the Company.
The amortized cost basis of financing receivables, consisting primarily of MUD receivables, totaled $603.3 million as of March 31, 2025, and $569.1 million as of December 31, 2024. The MUD receivable balance included accrued interest of $54.5 million as of March 31, 2025, and $44.0 million as of December 31, 2024. There was no material activity in the allowance for credit losses for financing receivables for the three and three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
Financing receivables are considered to be past due once they are 30 days contractually past due under the terms of the agreement. The Company does not have significant receivables that are past due or on nonaccrual status. There have been no significant write-offs or recoveries of amounts previously written off during the current period for financing receivables.

On July 31, 2024, the Spinoff of SEG was completed. The Spinoff included all assets previously included in the Company’s Seaport segment and the Las Vegas Aviators and the Las Vegas Ballpark, which were previously included in the Operating Assets segment.

(d)For these equity method investments, various provisions in the venture operating agreements regarding distributions of cash flow based on capital account balances, allocations of profits and losses, and preferred returns may result in the Company’s economic interest differing from its stated interest or final profit-sharing interest. For these investments, the Company recognizes income or loss based on the venture’s distribution priorities, which could fluctuate over time and may be different from its stated ownership or final profit-sharing interest.
(e)Classified as a VIE; however, the Company is not the primary beneficiary and accounts for its investment in accordance with the equity method. Refer to discussion below for additional information.
(f)Other equity investments represent investments not accounted for under the equity method. There were no impairments, or upward or downward adjustments to the carrying amounts of these securities either during current year or cumulatively.
The Summit In 2015, the Company formed DLV/HHPI Summerlin, LLC (The Summit) with Discovery Land Company (Discovery) to develop a custom home community in Summerlin.
Phase I The Company contributed land with a carrying value of $13.4 million and transferred SID bonds related to such land with a carrying value of $1.3 million to The Summit at the agreed upon capital contribution value of $125.4 million, or $226,000 per acre, and has no further capital obligations. Discovery is required to fund up to a maximum of $30.0 million of cash as their capital contribution, of which $3.8 million has been contributed as of March 31, 2025. The Company has received its preferred return distributions and recognizes its share of income or loss for Phase I based on its final profit-sharing interest.
Phase II In July 2022, the Company contributed an additional 54 acres to The Summit (Phase II land) with a fair value of $21.5 million. The Company recognized an incremental equity method investment at fair value and recognized a gain of $13.5 million recorded in Equity in earnings (losses) from unconsolidated ventures. This gain is the result of marking the cost basis of the land contributed to its estimated fair value at the time of contribution. The Phase II land is adjacent to the existing Summit development and includes approximately 28 custom home sites. The first lot sales closed in the first quarter of 2023. The Company recognizes its share of income or loss for Phase II based on the joint venture’s distribution priorities in the amended Summit LLC agreement, which could fluctuate over time. Upon receipt of the Company’s preferred returns, distributions and recognition of income or loss will be allocated to the Company based on its final profit-sharing interest.
Floreo In the fourth quarter of 2021, simultaneous with the Teravalis land acquisition, the Company closed on the acquisition of a 50% interest in Trillium Development Holding Company, LLC (Floreo) for $59.0 million and entered into a Limited Liability Company Agreement (LLC Agreement) with JDM Partners and El Dorado Holdings to develop Floreo, the first village within the new Teravalis MPC, on 3,029 acres of land in the greater Phoenix, Arizona area. The first land sales closed in the first quarter of 2024.
In October 2022, Floreo closed on a $165.0 million bond financing. In February 2025, the borrowing capacity on the bond was increased to $365.0 million. Outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2025, were $187.0 million. The Company provided a guaranty on this financing in the form of a collateral maintenance obligation and received an initial guaranty fee of $5.0 million and will receive an additional guaranty fee of $6.0 million associated with the increased borrowing capacity. The financing and related guaranty provided by the Company triggered a reconsideration event and as of December 31, 2022, Floreo was classified as a VIE. Due to rights held by other members, the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in Floreo and is not the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s maximum exposure to loss on this investment is limited to the $62.3 million aggregate carrying value as the Company has not made any other firm commitments to fund amounts on behalf of this VIE, and cash collateral that the Company may be obligated to post related to its collateral maintenance obligation. See Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies for additional information related to the Company’s collateral maintenance obligation.

4. Acquisitions and Dispositions |
Acquisitions
Operating Assets In June 2024, the Company acquired the 6 Waterway (formerly Waterway Plaza II) office property and the adjacent parking garage for $19.2 million in an asset acquisition. The approximately 141,763 square-foot office property is located in The Woodlands.
Dispositions Gains and losses on asset dispositions are recorded to Gain (loss) on sale or disposal of real estate and other assets, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, unless otherwise noted.
Operating Assets In January 2025, the Company completed the sale of two land parcels, which included a 13,870 square foot retail space, in Ward Village for total consideration of $12.2 million, resulting in a gain of $10.0 million.
During 2024, the Company completed the sale of four non-core ground leases in The Woodlands, for total proceeds of $9.6 million, resulting in a gain of $6.7 million.
In December 2024, the Company completed the sale of Lakeland Village Center at Bridgeland, a 67,947-square-foot retail property in Bridgeland, for $28.0 million, resulting in a gain of $11.4 million.
In February 2024, the Company completed the sale of Creekside Park Medical Plaza, a 32,689 square-foot medical office building in The Woodlands, for $14.0 million, resulting in a gain of $4.8 million.
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for potential impairment indicators when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment or disposal of long‑lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, requires that if impairment indicators exist and expected undiscounted cash flows generated by the asset over an anticipated holding period are less than its carrying amount, an impairment provision should be recorded to write down the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. The impairment analysis does not consider the timing of future cash flows and whether the asset is expected to earn an above- or below-market rate of return. No impairment charges were recorded in continuing operations during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Company periodically evaluates strategic alternatives with respect to each property and may revise the strategy from time to time, including the intent to hold the asset on a long-term basis or the timing of potential asset dispositions. For example, the Company may decide to sell property that is held for use, and the sale price may be less than the carrying amount. As a result, changes in strategy could result in impairment charges in future periods.
| | | | | |
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOOTNOTES |
|
The Company evaluates each investment in an unconsolidated venture discussed in Note 3 - Investments in Unconsolidated Ventures periodically for recoverability and valuation declines that are other-than-temporary. If the decrease in value of an investment is deemed to be other-than-temporary, the investment is reduced to its estimated fair value. No impairment charges were recorded in continuing operations during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Secured Mortgages Payable The Company’s outstanding mortgages are collateralized by certain of the Company’s real estate assets. Certain of the Company’s loans contain provisions that grant the lender a security interest in the operating cash flow of the property that represents the collateral for the loan. Certain mortgage notes may be prepaid subject to a prepayment penalty equal to a yield maintenance premium, defeasance, or a percentage of the loan balance. Construction loans related to the Company’s development properties are generally variable-rate, interest-only, and have maturities of five years or less. Debt obligations related to the Company’s operating properties generally require monthly installments of principal and interest.
The following table summarizes the Company’s Secured mortgages payable:

(a)Interest rates presented are based upon the coupon rates of the Company’s fixed-rate debt obligations.
(b)Interest rates presented are based on the applicable reference interest rates as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, excluding the effects of interest rate derivatives.
The Company has entered into derivative instruments to manage its variable interest rate exposure. The weighted-average interest rate of the Company’s variable-rate mortgages payable, inclusive of interest rate derivatives, was 7.07% as of March 31, 2025, and 7.02% as of December 31, 2024. See Note 9 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for additional information.
The Company’s secured mortgages mature over various terms through September 2052. On certain of its debt obligations, the Company has the option to exercise extension options, subject to certain terms, which may include minimum debt service coverage, minimum occupancy levels or condominium sales levels, as applicable, and other performance criteria. In certain cases, due to property performance not meeting identified covenants, the Company may be required to pay down a portion of the loan to exercise the extension option.
During 2025, the Company’s mortgage activity included draws on existing mortgages of $132.6 million and repayments of $10.9 million. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s secured mortgage loans had $1.0 billion of undrawn lender commitment available to be drawn for property development, subject to certain restrictions.

Special Improvement District Bonds The Summerlin MPC uses SID bonds to finance certain common infrastructure improvements. These bonds are issued by the municipalities and are secured by the assessments on the land. The majority of proceeds from each bond issued is held in a construction escrow and disbursed to the Company as infrastructure projects are completed, inspected by the municipalities, and approved for reimbursement. Accordingly, the SID bonds have been classified as debt, and the Summerlin MPC pays the debt service on the bonds semi‑annually. As Summerlin sells land, the buyers assume a proportionate share of the bond obligation at closing, and the residential sales contracts provide for the reimbursement of the principal amounts that the Company previously paid with respect to such proportionate share of the bond. These bonds bear interest at fixed rates ranging from 4.13% to 6.05% with maturities ranging from 2025 to 2054 as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, obligations of $2.3 million were assumed by buyers and no SID bonds were issued.
Secured Bridgeland Notes The Company’s $600.0 million secured notes mature in 2029 and are secured by MUD receivables and land in Bridgeland. The loan requires a 10% fully refundable deposit on the outstanding balance and has an interest rate of 6.63%. As of March 31, 2025, outstanding borrowings were $283.0 million.
Debt Compliance As of March 31, 2025, the Company was not in compliance with certain property-level debt covenants. As a result, the excess net cash flow after debt service from the underlying properties became restricted. While the restricted cash could not be used for general corporate purposes, it could be used to fund operations of the underlying assets and did not have a material impact on the Company’s liquidity or its ability to operate these assets.
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The standard establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring assets or liabilities at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the asset or liability. Assets or liabilities with readily available active quoted prices, or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices, generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
The following table presents the fair value measurement hierarchy levels required under ASC 820 for the Company’s assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company does not have any liabilities that are measured at a fair value on a recurring basis for the periods presented.

The fair values of interest rate derivatives are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves.

The fair value of the Company’s Senior Notes, included in fixed-rate debt in the table above, is based upon the trade price closest to the end of the period presented. The fair value of other fixed-rate debt in the table above was estimated based on a discounted future cash payment model, which includes risk premiums and risk-free rates derived from the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) or U.S. Treasury obligation interest rates as of March 31, 2025. Refer to Note 7 - Mortgages, Notes, and Loans Payable, Net for additional information. The discount rates reflect the Company’s judgment as to what the approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and credit quality would be if credit markets were operating efficiently and assuming that the debt is outstanding through maturity.
The carrying amounts for the Company’s variable-rate debt approximate fair value given that the interest rates are variable and adjust with current market rates for instruments with similar risks and maturities.

9. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities |
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to its variable interest rate debt, and it manages this risk by utilizing interest rate derivatives. The Company uses interest rate swaps, collars, and caps to add stability to interest costs by reducing the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company’s fixed‑rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate collars designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above an established ceiling rate and payment of variable amounts to a counterparty if interest rates fall below an established floor rate, in exchange for an upfront premium. No payments or receipts are exchanged on interest rate collar contracts unless interest rates rise above or fall below the established ceiling and floor rates. Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty if interest rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an upfront premium. Certain of the Company’s interest rate caps are not currently designated as hedges, and therefore, any gains or losses are recognized in current-period earnings within Interest expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. These derivatives are recorded on a gross basis at fair value on the balance sheet.
Assessments of hedge effectiveness are performed quarterly using regression analysis. The change in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings within the same income statement line item being hedged. Derivatives accounted for as cash flow hedges are classified in the same category in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as the items being hedged. Gains and losses from derivative financial instruments are reported in Cash provided by (used in) operating activities within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOOTNOTES |

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by its derivative counterparties. To mitigate its credit risk, the Company reviews the creditworthiness of counterparties and enters into agreements with those that are considered credit-worthy, such as large financial institutions with favorable credit ratings. There were no derivative counterparty defaults as of March 31, 2025, or December 31, 2024.
If the derivative contracts are terminated prior to their maturity, the amounts previously recorded in AOCI are recognized in earnings over the period that the hedged transaction impacts earnings. The Company recorded an immaterial reduction in interest expense in 2024 and 2025 related to the amortization of terminated swaps.
Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to Interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable‑rate debt. Over the next 12 months, the Company estimates that $2.6 million of net gain will be reclassified to Interest expense including amounts related to the amortization of terminated swaps.
The following table summarizes certain terms of the Company’s derivative contracts. The Company reports derivative assets in Other assets, net and derivative liabilities in Accounts payable and other liabilities.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features The Company has agreements at the property level with certain derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on the related property-level indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its related derivative obligations. None of the Company’s derivatives which contain credit-risk-related features were in a net liability position as of March 31, 2025.

10. Commitments and Contingencies |
Litigation In the normal course of business, from time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings relating to the ownership and operations of its properties. In management’s opinion, the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from normal course of business legal actions are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.
Columbia The Company is currently developing certain property it owns in the Lakefront neighborhood of Downtown Columbia, which is subject to certain recorded documents, covenants, and restrictions (the Covenants). Under the Covenants, HHH is the master developer of the Lakefront neighborhood. In 2017, IMH Columbia, LLC (IMH) purchased the site of a former Sheraton Hotel (the Hotel Lot) subject to the Covenants. IMH has made demands that HHH accede to IMH’s development plans for the Hotel Lot and HHH has exercised its right under the Covenants to object to IMH’s plans for the Hotel Lot. IMH filed a complaint seeking (1) a declaration that HHH gave its consent, under the Covenants, to IMH’s proposed changes in use and onsite parking, or that the limitations under the Covenants are obsolete and unenforceable, (2) damages reimbursing the costs and expenses IMH claims to have incurred in reliance on HHH's alleged consent to IMH’s proposed development, (3) damages related to the expectation of lost profits, which IMH alleged were caused by HHH breaching the Covenants by prohibiting IMH from proceeding with its proposed development, and (4) declarations finding that HHH breached the shared parking related Covenants relating to HHH’s own property. The jury trial concluded in April 2024, and the jury found partially in favor of IMH and awarded damages of $17.0 million, which will accrue post-judgment interest of 10% annually from the date of the final judgment. The Company has appealed the judgement and anticipates the Court of Appeals will hear oral arguments in late 2025. The Company will continue to defend the matter as it believes that these claims are without merit and that it has substantial legal and factual defenses to the claims and allegations contained in the complaint.
Timarron Park On June 14, 2018, the Company was served with a petition involving approximately 500 individuals or entities who claim that their properties, located in the Timarron Park neighborhood of The Woodlands, were damaged by flood waters that resulted from the unprecedented rainfall that occurred throughout Harris County and surrounding areas during Hurricane Harvey in August 2017. The complaint was filed in State Court in Harris County of the State of Texas. In general, the plaintiffs allege negligence in the development of Timarron Park and violations of Texas’ Deceptive Trade Practices Act and name as defendants The Howard Hughes Corporation, The Woodlands Land Development Company, and two unaffiliated parties involved in the planning and engineering of Timarron Park. The plaintiffs are seeking restitution for damages to their properties and diminution of their property values. On August 9, 2022, the Court granted the Company’s summary judgment motions and dismissed the plaintiffs’ claims. The plaintiffs filed a motion for a new trial, which was denied. Plaintiffs appealed. In November of 2024, a three-judge panel of the Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court’s judgement in the Company’s favor. Plaintiffs have filed a motion for rehearing, which is currently pending before the Court of Appeals. The Company will continue to defend the matter as it believes that these claims are without merit and that it has substantial legal and factual defenses to the claims and allegations contained in the complaint. Based upon the present status of this matter, the Company does not believe it is probable that a loss will be incurred. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded a charge as a result of this action.
Kō'ula On January 25, 2025, the Association of Unit Owners of Kō'ula (AOUO) provided notice of a claim filed against the Howard Hughes Corporation, and alleged affiliated entities, in the Circuit Court of First Circuit, State of Hawaii. This claim is a building-wide construction matter alleging unspecified construction defects. As the Company is awaiting information from the AOUO identifying its claims with specificity, the Company has not accrued any amount related to this claim as no estimate can be made at this time. The Company does have an insurance policy to cover legal fees and defect repairs, if necessary.
Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds As of March 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $3.9 million and surety bonds totaling $416.8 million. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $3.9 million and surety bonds totaling $353.8 million. These letters of credit and surety bonds were issued primarily in connection with insurance requirements, special real estate assessments, and construction obligations.

Operating Leases The Company leases land or buildings at certain properties from third parties, which are recorded in Operating lease right-of-use assets and Operating lease obligations on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 15 - Leases for further discussion.
Guaranty Agreements The Company evaluates the likelihood of future performance under the below guarantees and, as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, there were no events requiring financial performance under these guarantees.
Seaport Entertainment Guaranty Immediately prior to the Spinoff, 250 Seaport District, LLC (SEG Borrower), then a subsidiary of HHH, refinanced the existing mortgage loan related to the Water Street Property. This included the repayment of the existing mortgage loan payable with a carrying value of $113.4 million and the incurrence of $61.3 million in new mortgage indebtedness (SEG Term Loan). As part of the refinancing, SEG Borrower also entered into a total return swap with a third party lender to provide credit support for the SEG Term Loan, which was supported by a guaranty provided by a separate subsidiary of HHH (HHH Guarantor). The SEG Term Loan and related total return swap were included in the liabilities transferred to Seaport Entertainment upon completion of the Spinoff. As a result, following the Spinoff, HHH Guarantor now provides a full backstop guaranty for the SEG Term Loan.
The SEG Term Loan agreement is scheduled to mature on July 1, 2029. Collateral for the loan includes the Water Street Property which was transferred to SEG upon completion of the Spinoff. Under the terms of SEG’s loan agreement, the Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio must not exceed certain thresholds. In the event the LTV ratio exceeds the applicable threshold, SEG must pay down the loan to an amount that would result in an LTV ratio under the applicable threshold. In the event SEG fails to make any necessary payments when due, HHH Guarantor is required to make all payments in full.
In consideration of HHH Guarantor providing such guaranty, SEG will pay the Company an annualized guaranty fee equal to 2.0% of the total outstanding principal, paid monthly. The Company’s maximum exposure under this guaranty is equal to the outstanding principal and interest balance at the end of each period. Given the value of the Water Street Property collateral, the Company does not expect to have to perform under this guaranty.
Floreo Guaranty In October 2022, Floreo, the Company’s 50%-owned joint venture in Teravalis, closed on a $165 million bond financing with a maturity date of October 1, 2027. In February 2025, the borrowing capacity on the bond was increased to $365.0 million and the maturity was extended to December 1, 2029. Outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2025, were $187.0 million. A wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (HHC Subsidiary) provided a guaranty for the bond in the form of a collateral maintenance commitment under which it will post refundable cash collateral if the LTV ratio exceeds 50%. A separate wholly owned subsidiary of the Company also provided a backstop guaranty requiring the payment of cash collateral in the event HHC Subsidiary fails to make necessary payments when due. In February 2025, in connection with the increase of the borrowing capacity, the potential cash collateral commitment associated with this guaranty increased from $50.0 million to $100.0 million. The cash collateral becomes nonrefundable if Floreo defaults on the bond obligation. The Company received a fee of $5.0 million in exchange for providing the initial guaranty and will receive an additional guaranty fee of $6.0 million associated with the increased borrowing capacity. This deferred income was recorded in Accounts payable and other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, and will be recognized in Other income (loss), net in a manner that corresponds to the bond repayment by Floreo. The Company’s maximum exposure under this guaranty is equal to the cash collateral that the Company may be obligated to post. As of March 31, 2025, the Company has not posted any cash collateral. Given the existence of other collateral including the undeveloped land owned by Floreo, the entity’s extensive and discretionary development plan, and its eligibility for reimbursement of a significant part of the development costs from the Community Facility District in Arizona, the Company does not expect to have to post collateral.
Downtown Columbia To the extent that increases in taxes do not cover debt service payments on the Downtown Columbia Redevelopment District TIF bonds issued by Howard County, Maryland, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary is obligated to pay special taxes. Management has concluded that, as of March 31, 2025, any obligations to pay special taxes are not probable.
Ward Village As part of the Company’s development permits with the Hawai‘i Community Development Authority for the condominium towers at Ward Village, the Company entered into a guaranty whereby it is required to reserve 20% of the residential units for local residents who meet certain maximum income and net worth requirements. This guaranty, which is triggered once the necessary permits are granted and construction commences, was satisfied for Waiea, Anaha, and Ae`o, with the opening of Ke Kilohana, which is a workforce tower fully earmarked to fulfill this obligation for the first four towers. The reserved units for ‘A‘ali‘i tower are included in the ‘A‘ali‘i tower. Units for Kō'ula, Victoria Place, The Park Ward Village, and Kalae will be satisfied with the construction of Ulana Ward Village, which is a second workforce tower fully earmarked to fulfill the remaining reserved housing guaranty in the community. Construction on Ulana Ward Village began in early 2023.

Basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation for the effects of all potentially dilutive common shares. The dilutive effect of options and non-vested stock issued under stock-based compensation plans is computed using the treasury stock method.
Information related to the Company’s EPS calculations is summarized as follows:

Revenues from contracts with customers (excluding lease-related revenues) are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the Company’s customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue and cost of sales for condominium units sold are not recognized until the construction is complete, the sale closes, and the title to the property has transferred to the buyer (point in time). Additionally, certain real estate selling costs, such as the costs related to the Company’s condominium model units, are either expensed immediately or capitalized as property and equipment and depreciated over their estimated useful life.
The following presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by revenue source:

Contract Assets and Liabilities Contract assets are the Company’s right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that have been transferred to a customer, excluding any amounts presented as a receivable. Contract liabilities are the Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration.
There were no contract assets for the periods presented. The contract liabilities primarily relate to escrowed condominium deposits, MPC land sales deposits, and deferred MPC land sales related to unsatisfied land improvements. The beginning and ending balances of contract liabilities and significant activity during the periods presented are as follows:

Remaining Unsatisfied Performance Obligations The Company’s remaining unsatisfied performance obligations represent a measure of the total dollar value of work to be performed on contracts executed and in progress. These performance obligations primarily relate to the completion of condominium construction and transfer of control to a buyer, as well as the completion of contracted MPC land sales and related land improvements. These obligations are associated with contracts that generally are non-cancelable by the customer after 30 days for all Ward Village condominiums and after 6 days for The Ritz-Carlton Residences; however, purchasers of condominium units have the right to cancel the contract should the Company elect not to construct the condominium unit within a certain period of time or materially change the design of the condominium unit. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the Company’s remaining unsatisfied performance obligations as of March 31, 2025, was $3.2 billion. The Company expects to recognize this amount as revenue over the following periods:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
thousands | Less than 1 year | | 1-2 years | 3 years and thereafter |
Total remaining unsatisfied performance obligations | | $ | 1,486,490 | | | $ | 27,881 | | | $ | 1,678,335 | |
The Company’s remaining performance obligations are adjusted to reflect any known project cancellations, revisions to project scope and cost, and deferrals, as appropriate. These amounts exclude estimated amounts of variable consideration which are constrained, such as builder price participation.
The Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components and has elected to aggregate these components into a single component for all classes of underlying assets. Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include non-lease components such as fixed common area maintenance charges.
Lessee Arrangements The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets and Operating lease obligations on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an estimate of the incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of future lease payments. The Operating lease right-of-use asset also includes any lease payments made, less any lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. The Company does not have any finance leases.
The Company’s lessee agreements consist of operating leases primarily for ground leases and other real estate. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of approximately 1 year to approximately 25 years, excluding extension options. The Company considers its strategic plan and the life of associated agreements in determining when options to extend or terminate lease terms are reasonably certain of being exercised. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include variable lease payments based on a percentage of income generated through subleases, changes in price indices and market rates, and other costs arising from operating, maintenance, and taxes. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. The Company leases certain buildings constructed on its ground leases to third parties.
The Company’s leased assets and liabilities are as follows:

Lessor Arrangements The Company receives rental income from the leasing of retail, office, multifamily, and other space under operating leases, as well as certain variable tenant recoveries. Operating leases for retail, office, and other properties are with a variety of tenants and have a remaining average term of approximately five years. Lease terms generally vary among tenants and may include early termination options, extension options, and fixed rental rate increases or rental rate increases based on an index. Multifamily leases generally have a term of 12 months or less. Minimum rent revenues related to operating leases are as follows:

Total | $ | 1,760,748 | |
Minimum rent revenues are recognized on a straight‑line basis over the terms of the related leases when collectability is reasonably assured and the tenant has taken possession of, or controls, the physical use of the leased asset. Percentage rent in lieu of fixed minimum rent is recognized as sales are reported from tenants. Minimum rent revenues reported on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations also include amortization related to above-market and below‑market tenant leases on acquired properties.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOOTNOTES |

The Company has three business segments, Operating Assets, MPC, and Strategic Developments, which are organized based on the different products and services that each segment offers, and are separately managed as each requires different operating strategies or management expertise reflective of management’s operating philosophies and methods. The Company’s segments or assets within such segments could change in the future as development of certain properties commences or other operational or management changes occur. All operations are within the United States.
Activity within each of the Company’s reportable segments is as follows:
–Operating Assets – consists of developed or acquired retail, office, and multifamily properties along with other real estate investments. These properties are currently generating rental revenues and may be redeveloped, repositioned, or sold to improve segment performance or to recycle capital.
–MPC – consists of the development and sale of land in large‑scale, long‑term community development projects in and around Las Vegas, Nevada; Houston, Texas; and Phoenix, Arizona. Revenues are primarily generated through the sale of residential and commercial land to homebuilders and developers.
–Strategic Developments – consists of residential condominium and commercial property projects currently under development and all other properties held for development which have no substantial operations. Revenues are primarily generated from the sale of condominium units.
The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, may use different operating measures to assess operating results and allocate resources among the three segments, however the measure that is most consistent with the amounts included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is earnings before taxes (EBT). EBT, as it relates to each business segment, includes the revenues and expenses of each segment, as shown below. EBT excludes corporate expenses and other items that are not allocable to the segments. The CODM utilizes EBT to evaluate the current financial performance and project the future financial performance of each segment to determine the allocation of capital resources. This measure is also used to evaluate the need for operational adjustments, such as adjustments to prices, cost structures, and product mix necessary to achieve profitability targets.

Pershing Square Transaction On May 5, 2025, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (Purchase Agreement), by and between the Company and Pershing Square Holdco, L.P. (PS Holdco), pursuant to which the Company sold to PS Holdco 9,000,000 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of $100 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $900 million. In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the Company also entered into several other agreements, dated May 5, 2025, with PS Holdco and Pershing Square, including a Services Agreement, a Shareholder Agreement, a Standstill Agreement, and a Registration Rights Agreement.
The Company expects this investment to enable it to become a diversified holding company by acquiring controlling stakes in high-quality, durable growth public and private operating companies, while at the same time allowing the Company to continue to invest in and grow its core real estate development and MPC business.
This transaction and the related agreements are described in more detail in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 6, 2025.
Bridgeland MUD Sale On May 7, 2025, the Company entered into a sales transaction of MUD receivables, in which it transferred the reimbursements rights for additional existing and anticipated future MUD receivables, for total cash consideration of $180.0 million. The financial impact of this transaction will be reflected in the next reporting period. At this time, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the allocation of these amounts between the existing and anticipated future MUD receivables to estimate the loss associated with the sale but will provide further details in future disclosures. The Company intends to use the proceeds to further pay down Bridgeland’s line of credit, providing enhanced liquidity and additional optionality for the future.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OVERVIEW |
|
Our award-winning assets include one of the nation's largest portfolios of MPCs, spanning approximately 101,000 gross acres, as well as operating properties, strategic developments, and other assets across five states. We create some of the most sought-after communities in the country by curating an environment tailored to meet the needs of our residents and tenants. Our unique business model allows us to seek attractive risk-adjusted returns while maintaining a sharp focus on sustainability to ensure our communities are equipped with the resources to last several decades.
We operate through three business segments: Operating Assets, MPCs, and Strategic Developments. We create a continuous value-creation cycle through operational and financial synergies associated with our three business segments. In our MPC segment, we plan, develop, and manage small cities and large-scale, mixed-use communities, in markets with strong long-term growth fundamentals. This business focuses on the horizontal development of residential land. The improved acreage is then sold to homebuilders who build and sell homes to new residents. New homeowners create demand for commercial developments, such as retail, office, and hospitality offerings. We build these commercial properties through Strategic Developments at the appropriate times, which helps mitigate development risk, using the cash flow harvested from the sale of land to homebuilders. Once the commercial developments are completed, the assets transition to Operating Assets, which increases recurring Net Operating Income (NOI), further funding our Strategic Developments. New office, retail, and other commercial amenities make our MPC residential land more appealing to buyers and increase the velocity of land sales at premiums that typically exceed the broader market. This increased demand for residential land generates more cash flow from MPCs, thus continuing the value-creation cycle.
Information provided in this report does not take into account the anticipated changes in our business as a result of the shift in our strategic direction following the recent transactions with Pershing Square. Refer to Note 17 - Subsequent Events in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information on the transactions with Pershing Square.
In addition to the required presentations using GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP performance measures, such as NOI and MPC Net Contribution. See the Operating Assets and MPC sections below for the reconciliations of these GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures and statements indicating why management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information for investors.
Changes for monetary amounts between periods presented are calculated based on the amounts in thousands of dollars stated in our consolidated financial statements, and then rounded to the nearest million. Therefore, certain changes may not recalculate based on the amounts rounded to the nearest million.

First Quarter 2025 Highlights |
Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2025, to the three months ended March 31, 2024
Total Company
–Net income from continuing operations increased to income of $10.8 million in the current quarter, compared to a loss of $21.0 million in the prior-year period. This improvement was primarily driven by increased MPC residential land sales.
–We continue to maintain a strong liquidity position with $493.7 million of cash and cash equivalents, $1.0 billion of undrawn lender commitment available to be drawn for property development, and limited near-term debt maturities, all as of March 31, 2025.
Operating Assets
–Operating Assets NOI totaled $64.0 million in the current quarter, a $3.7 million increase compared to $60.4 million in the prior-year period.
–Office NOI increased $2.3 million primarily due to strong leasing activity and abatement expirations at various properties in The Woodlands and Summerlin, most notably at 9950 Woodloch Forest and 1700 Pavilion. These increases were partially offset by lower occupancy at certain properties in Downtown Columbia and The Woodlands.
–Multifamily NOI increased $2.0 million primarily due to continued lease-up at Tanager Echo in Summerlin, Marlow in Downtown Columbia, and Wingspan in Bridgeland.
MPC
–MPC EBT totaled $63.3 million in the current quarter, a $39.0 million increase compared to $24.3 million in the prior-year period.
–The increase in EBT was primarily due to higher residential land sales, net of costs, at Summerlin due to an increase in superpad acres sold in the current quarter.
Strategic Developments
–Strategic Developments EBT increased $4.2 million to a loss of $1.2 million in the current quarter, compared to a loss of $5.4 million in the prior-year period.
–The increase in EBT was primarily attributable to final Waiea remediation expenditures incurred in the prior period that did not occur in the current period, partially offset by a loss on deconsolidation of the Victoria Place homeowners’ association in the current quarter as ownership and control was passed to the residents.
–We contracted 26 units at The Launiu during the current quarter and of March 31, 2025, this development project was 63.7% pre-sold.
–As of March 31, 2025, 95.6% of the units at our four towers under construction, The Park Ward Village, Ulana Ward Village, Kalae, and The Ritz-Carlton Condominiums, are under contract.

Segment EBT | | | | | | | $ | 2,270 | | | $ | (2,917) | | | $ | 5,187 | |
For the three months ended March 31, 2025:
Operating Assets segment EBT increased $5.2 million compared to the prior-year period primarily due to the following:
–Gain on sale of real estate increased $5.2 million primarily due to the sale of two land parcels and a retail space in Ward Village in 2025, compared to the sale of Creekside Park Medical Plaza in 2024.
–Rental revenues, net of Operating costs increased $5.6 million primarily due to increased leasing activity across our portfolio.
These increases to EBT were partially offset by the following:
–Depreciation expense increased $1.3 million primarily related to new assets placed in service.
–Interest expense increased $1.3 million primarily due to increased borrowings on construction loans secured by our operating assets as well as an increase related to the change in fair value of certain derivative instruments.
–Rental property real estate taxes increased $1.2 million primarily due to the receipt of refunds in 2024.
–Equity earnings decreased $1.2 million primarily due to lower earnings, partially offset by higher dividends.
Net Operating Income In addition to the required presentations using GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP performance measures, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of our operational results and make comparisons of operating results among peer companies more meaningful. Management continually evaluates the usefulness, relevance, limitations and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the public, and thus such reported measures could change.
We define NOI as operating revenues (rental income, tenant recoveries, and other revenue) less operating expenses (real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, marketing, and other property expenses). NOI excludes straight-line rents and amortization of tenant incentives, net; interest expense, net; ground rent amortization; demolition costs; other income (loss); depreciation and amortization; development-related marketing costs; gain on sale or disposal of real estate and other assets, net; loss on extinguishment of debt; provision for impairment; and equity in earnings from unconsolidated ventures.
| | | | | |
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
|
We believe that NOI is a useful supplemental measure of the performance of our Operating Assets segment because it provides a performance measure that reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating real estate properties. We use NOI to evaluate our operating performance on a property-by-property basis because NOI allows us to evaluate the impact that property-specific factors such as rental and occupancy rates, tenant mix, and operating costs have on our operating results, gross margins, and investment returns.

(a)MPC land sales include deferred revenue from land sales closed in a previous period that met criteria for recognition in the current period and excludes amounts deferred from current period land sales that do not yet meet the recognition criteria.
(b)Builder price participation revenue is earned when a developer that acquired land from us develops and sells a home to an end user at a price higher than a predetermined breakpoint. The excess over the breakpoint is shared between us and the developer at the time of closing on the sale of the home based on a previously agreed-upon percentage. This revenue fluctuates based upon the number and the prices of homes closed that qualify for builder price participation payments.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
|
For the three months ended March 31, 2025:
MPC segment EBT increased $39.0 million compared to the prior-year period primarily due to the following:
Summerlin EBT increased $34.8 million compared to the prior-year period.
–MPC sales, net of MPC cost of sales increased $25.5 million primarily due to the following activity:
–increase in superpad acres sold, with 29.4 acres sold at an average price of $1.5 million per acre in the first quarter of 2025, compared to no acres sold in the prior-year period
–increase due to $2.3 million in SID bond assumptions resulting from an increase in superpad sales in the first quarter of 2025, compared to the prior-year period
–decrease due to $5.2 million less revenue recognized out of deferred revenue net of associated deferred costs in the first quarter of 2025, compared to the prior-year period
–Equity earnings at The Summit increased $11.0 million. This is primarily due to higher losses in the prior-year period related to changes to the development model.
–Builder price participation decreased $2.1 million as fewer homes were closed with sales prices over the predetermined breakpoint necessary for participation revenue in the current period.
The Woodlands EBT increased $3.6 million compared to the prior-year period.
–Gain on sale or disposal of real estate and other assets, net increased $3.7 million due to an eminent domain settlement related to the condemnation of a 9.9-acre parcel of non-saleable land.
The Woodlands Hills EBT increased $1.0 million compared to the prior-year period.
–MPC sales, net of MPC cost of sales increased $1.0 million primarily due to the following activity:
–increase in residential acres sold, with 3.8 acres sold at an average price of $471,000 per acre in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 0.4 acres sold at an average price of $538,000 per acre in the prior-year period
Bridgeland EBT decreased $0.5 million compared to the prior-year period.
–Builder price participation decreased $1.2 million as fewer homes were closed with sales prices over the predetermined breakpoint necessary for participation revenue in the current period.
–MPC sales, net of MPC cost of sales increased $0.4 million primarily due to the following activity:
–increase in residential acres sold, with 37.0 acres sold at an average price of $605,000 per acre in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 30.7 acres sold at an average price of $601,000 per acre in the prior-year period
–decrease in commercial acres sold, with no acres sold in the first quarter of 2025, compared to 3.5 acres sold at an average price of $801,000 per acre in the prior-year period
–decrease due to $1.6 million less revenue recognized out of deferred revenue net of associated deferred costs in the first quarter of 2025, compared to the prior-year period
| | | | | |
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
|
MPC Net Contribution MPC Net Contribution is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from EBT, adjusted for certain items as discussed below. Management uses this measure because it captures current period performance through the velocity of sales, as well as current period development expenditures based upon demand at our MPCs, which varies depending upon the stage of the MPC’s development lifecycle, and the overall economic environment. MPC Net Contribution is defined as MPC segment EBT, plus MPC cost of sales, Depreciation and amortization, and net collections from MUD and SID bonds receivables, reduced by MPC development expenditures, land acquisitions, and Equity in earnings from unconsolidated ventures, net of distributions. MPC Net Contribution is not a GAAP-based operational metric and should not be used to measure operating performance of the MPC assets as a substitute for GAAP measures of such performance nor should it be used as a comparison metric with other comparable businesses.
Below is a reconciliation of segment EBT to MPC Net Contribution:

(b)MUD reimbursable costs represent land development expenditures transferred to MUD Receivables.
Our Strategic Developments assets generally require substantial future development to maximize their value. Other than our condominium properties, most of the properties and projects in this segment do not generate revenues. Our expenses relating to these assets are primarily related to costs associated with constructing the assets, selling condominiums, marketing costs associated with our Strategic Developments, carrying costs including, but not limited to, property taxes and insurance, and other ongoing costs relating to maintaining the assets in their current condition. If we decide to redevelop or develop a Strategic Developments asset, we expect that with the exception of the residential portion of our condominium projects, upon completion of development, the asset would likely be reclassified to Operating Assets when the asset is placed in service and NOI would become a meaningful measure of its operating performance. All development costs discussed herein are exclusive of land costs.

Segment EBT | | | | | | | $ | (1,199) | | | $ | (5,414) | | | $ | 4,215 | |
For the three months ended March 31, 2025:
Strategic Developments segment EBT increased $4.2 million compared to the prior-year period primarily due to the following:
–Condominium cost of sales decreased, primarily due to $3.0 million of charges in the first quarter of 2024, to fund the final remediation expenditures at Waiea, that did not occur in the current period.
This increase to EBT was partially offset by the following:
–Other income (loss), net decreased $1.3 million, primarily due to the loss on deconsolidation of the Victoria Place homeowners’ association, as ownership and control was passed to the residents in the first quarter of 2025, following the completion of the condominium tower at the end of 2024.
Condominiums Condominium revenue is recognized when construction of the condominium tower is complete and unit sales close, leading to variability in revenue recognized between periods.
Completed Condominiums
Ward Village As of March 31, 2025, our seven completed condominiums in Ward Village, Ae`o, Ke Kilohana, Anaha, Waiea, ‘A‘ali‘i, Kō‘ula, and Victoria Place are completely sold.
Condominiums Under Construction
Ward Village As of March 31, 2025, 97.4% of the units at our three towers under construction, The Park Ward Village, Ulana Ward Village, and Kalae are under contract.
We broke ground on The Park Ward Village in October 2022 and expect to complete construction in 2026. The Park Ward Village will consist of 545 studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom residences. As of March 31, 2025, we have entered into contracts for 528 units, representing 96.9% of total units.
We broke ground on Ulana Ward Village in January 2023 and expect to complete construction in 2025. Ulana Ward Village, which is 100% presold, will consist of 696 studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom units. All units are designated as workforce housing units and are being offered to local residents who meet certain maximum income and net worth requirements.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025:
Corporate income, expenses, and other items was unfavorably impacted compared to the prior-year period by the following:
–Income tax expense increased $9.9 million primarily due to an increase in Income before income taxes. Refer to Note 11 - Income Taxes in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information.
–Corporate interest expense, net increased $4.6 million primarily due to interest expense recognized in the current period related to the accretion of the liability recorded in connection with the 2024 sale of future MUD receivables and lower interest income driven by lower interest rates on lower average balances in the current period. Refer to Note 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information on the sale of MUD receivables.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS | |
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES | |
| | |
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES |
We continue to maintain a strong balance sheet and endeavor to ensure that we maintain the financial flexibility and liquidity necessary to fund future growth. In 2025, we drew $132.6 million on existing mortgage loans and made repayments on mortgage loans of $10.9 million. As of March 31, 2025, we had $1.0 billion of undrawn lender commitments available to be drawn for property development, subject to certain restrictions.
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended March 31, |
thousands | 2025 | | 2024 |
Cash provided by (used in) operating activities of continuing operations | $ | (224,924) | | | $ | (156,418) | |
Cash provided by (used in) investing activities of continuing operations | (63,591) | | | (88,743) | |
Cash provided by (used in) financing activities of continuing operations | 128,064 | | | 83,648 | |
Net cash provided by (used in) discontinued operations | — | | | 286 | |
Operating Activities Each segment’s relative contribution to our cash flows from operating activities will likely vary significantly from year to year given the changing nature of our development focus. Other than our condominium properties, most of the properties and projects in our Strategic Developments segment do not generate revenues, and the cash flows and earnings may vary. Condominium deposits received from contracted units and by other various cash uses related to condominium development and sales activities are a substantial portion of our operating activities. Operating cash is utilized to fund ongoing development expenditures in our Strategic Developments and MPC segments.
The cash flows and earnings from the MPC business may fluctuate more than from our operating assets because the MPC business generates revenues from land sales rather than recurring contractual revenues from operating leases. MPC land sales are a substantial portion of our cash flows from operating activities and are partially offset by development costs associated with the land sales business and acquisitions of land that is intended to ultimately be developed and sold.
Net cash used in operating activities of continuing operations was $224.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, and $156.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The $68.5 million increase in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in cash used for condominium towers and MPC development expenditures, partially offset by an increase in cash provided by MPC land sales, and a decrease in interest payments.
Investing Activities Net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations was $63.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, and $88.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The $25.2 million decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to a decrease in cash used related to the net parent investment in discontinued operations, partially offset by a decrease in proceeds from asset sales and an increase in cash used for property development and operating property improvements.
Financing Activities Net cash provided by financing activities of continuing operations was $128.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025, and $83.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2024. The $44.4 million increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to a $43.6 million increase in proceeds from mortgages, notes, and loans payable and a $9.5 million increase in Special Improvement District bond funds released from escrow, partially offset by an $8.2 million increase in cash used related to principal payments on mortgages, notes, and loans payable.
| | |
Short- and Long-Term Liquidity |
Short-Term Liquidity In the next 12 months, we expect our primary sources of cash to include cash flow from MPC land sales and condominium closings, cash generated from our operating assets, first mortgage financings secured by our assets, and deposits from condominium sales (which are restricted to funding construction of the related developments). We expect our primary uses of cash to include condominium pre-development and development costs, debt principal payments and debt service costs, MPC land development costs, other strategic developments costs, and general operating costs. We believe that our sources of cash, including existing cash on hand, will provide sufficient liquidity to meet our existing obligations and anticipated ordinary course operating expenses for at least the next 12 months.
Long-Term Liquidity The development and redevelopment opportunities in Strategic Developments and Operating Assets are capital intensive and will require significant additional funding, if and when pursued. Any additional funding beyond those sources listed above would be raised with a mix of construction, bridge, and long-term financings, by entering into joint venture arrangements, as well as future equity raises.
We cannot provide assurance that financing arrangements for our properties will be on favorable terms or occur at all, which could have a negative impact on our liquidity and capital resources. In addition, we typically must provide completion guarantees to lenders in connection with their financing for our projects.
Contractual Cash Obligations and Commitments The following table aggregates our contractual cash obligations and commitments as of March 31, 2025:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

(a)Interest is based on the borrowings that are presently outstanding and current floating interest rates.
Debt As of March 31, 2025, the Company had $5.2 billion of outstanding debt and $1.0 billion of undrawn lender commitment available to be drawn for property development, subject to certain restrictions. Refer to Note 7 - Mortgages, Notes, and Loans Payable, Net in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional detail. Our proportionate share of the debt of our unconsolidated ventures totaled $186.9 million as of March 31, 2025. All of this indebtedness is without recourse to the Company, with the exception of the collateral maintenance obligation for Floreo. See Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information related to the Company’s collateral maintenance obligation.
Debt Compliance As of March 31, 2025, the Company was not in compliance with certain property-level debt covenants. As a result, the excess net cash flow after debt service from the underlying properties became restricted. While the restricted cash could not be used for general corporate purposes, it could be used to fund operations of the underlying assets and did not have a material impact on the Company’s liquidity or its ability to operate these assets.
Net Debt The following table summarizes our net debt on a segment basis as of March 31, 2025. Net debt is defined as Mortgages, notes, and loans payable, net, including our ownership share of debt of our unconsolidated ventures, reduced by liquidity sources to satisfy such obligations such as our ownership share of Cash and cash equivalents and SID, MUD, and TIF receivables. Although net debt is a non-GAAP financial measure, we believe that such information is useful to our investors and other users of our financial statements as net debt and its components are important indicators of our overall liquidity, capital structure, and financial position. However, it should not be used as an alternative to our debt calculated in accordance with GAAP.

| | | | | |
MARKET RISK AND CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES | |
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are subject to interest rate risk with respect to our variable-rate financings in that increases in interest rates would cause our payments under such financings to increase. With respect to fixed-rate financings, increases in interest rates could make it more difficult to refinance such debt when it becomes due. As properties are placed into service and become stabilized, we typically refinance the variable-rate debt with long-term fixed-rate debt.
The Company uses derivative instruments to manage its interest rate risk, primarily through the use of interest rate swaps, caps, and collars. The Company had $1.5 billion of variable-rate debt outstanding at March 31, 2025, of which $250.1 million was swapped to a fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps and $917.9 million had interest rate cap contracts in place. Additionally, the interest rate caps and collars are on construction loans and mortgages with undrawn loan commitment of $159.2 million as of March 31, 2025, which will be covered by the interest rate cap and collar contracts upon drawing. Refer to Note 9 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for additional information.
As of March 31, 2025, annual interest costs would increase approximately $3.4 million for every 1.00% increase in floating interest rates. The Company is focused on prudently limiting exposure to potentially higher interest rates based upon market dynamics and general expected financing activity. Generally, a significant portion of our interest expense is capitalized due to the level of assets we currently have under development; therefore, the impact of a change in our interest rate on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations would be less than the total change in interest costs, but we would incur higher cash payments and the development costs of our assets would be higher, resulting in greater depreciation or cost of sales in later years.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
| | |
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports to the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by SEC rules, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2025.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING |
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Please refer to Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Other than as set forth below, there are no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report.
Our recent shift in business strategy will create additional and different risks than those we face in our existing business.
We recently announced a transaction with Pershing Square following which we expect to become a diversified holding company by acquiring controlling stakes in high-quality, durable growth public and private operating companies while continuing to invest in and grow our core real estate development and Master Planned Communities business. In embarking on this changed strategy, we are subject to risks such as being unable to identify and consummate transactions as part of the new strategy, as well as risks inherent in acquiring or making investments in operating companies, especially companies in industries unrelated to our existing real estate business. We may be unable to realize the anticipated benefits of the transactions with Pershing Square and our new strategy, which could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, the quoted trading price of our securities, and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations.
