NEW YORK CITY AND BOSTON — Affiliates of New York City-based investment firm Makarora Management and global investment firm Ares Management Corp. (NYSE: ARE) have completed the $2.1 billion, all-cash acquisition of Boston-based Plymouth Industrial REIT.
Under the terms of the deal, which was announced last fall, Plymouth shareholders will receive $22 for each share of common stock they own, and Plymouth will no longer be traded or listed on any public securities exchange. The transaction also calls for the acquiring entities to assume certain pieces of Plymouth’s outstanding debt.
The purchase price represents a premium of approximately 50 percent to Plymouth’s unaffected closing common stock price on August 18, 2025. That date marks the last trading day prior to the filing of a Schedule 13D by affiliates of Sixth Street Partners LLC disclosing a nonbinding proposal to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Plymouth’s common stock.
