by John Nelson December 12, 2023

PHILADELPHIA — PREIT (OTCQB: PRET), a mall REIT giant based in Philadelphia, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The “prepackaged” bankruptcy was agreed to ahead of time by PREIT’s creditors, which will shorten the duration of the company’s bankruptcy proceedings. PREIT expects it will be able to emerge from bankruptcy by early February 2024. PREIT owns and operates 18 malls in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Maryland, Virginia, Michigan, North Carolina and South Carolina. The company has also expanded in recent years to the multifamily, hotel and healthcare sectors. According to PREIT’s third-quarter financial results, the company’s same-store net operating income declined 5.3 percent year-over-year.

Joseph Coradino, chairman and CEO of PREIT, cites a trifecta of COVID-19 disruptions, inflation and rising interest rates as leading to its voluntary filing with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. “Following the pandemic disruption, PREIT has worked tirelessly to enhance the portfolio, dramatically improve occupancy and diversify its tenancy,” says Coradino. “However, unusual economic conditions have limited the company’s options with respect to its debt obligations as meaningful achievements on the operating front were …
