New York REIT Liquidating LLC Announces Results for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2022 and Declaration of Distribution of $0.10 Per Unit (5/10/22)

NEW YORK, May 10, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- New York REIT Liquidating LLC (the “Company” or the “LLC”), which was formed to complete the liquidation of the assets previously held by New York REIT, Inc., announced today it has filed its Annual Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Distributions

On May 6, 2022, the Company declared a cash liquidating distribution of $0.10 per unit to be paid on May 23, 2022, to unitholders of record as of May 16, 2022. Future liquidating distributions will depend on, among other things, the timing and amount of cash flow distributions from our interest in Worldwide Plaza. Distributions from Worldwide Plaza may be limited in subsequent periods due to pending tenant turnover and lease expirations. There can be no assurance that future distributions will be similar to the current distribution.

On March 28, 2022, the Company paid a cash liquidating distribution of $0.19 per unit to unitholders of record as of March 21, 2022.

Liquidation Status

Holders of membership interests in the Company are reminded that the conversion of New York REIT, Inc. to the LLC occurred on November 7, 2018. As previously disclosed, membership interests in the LLC are generally not transferable except by will, intestate succession, or operation of law.

The Company has sold all its properties except for the remaining 50.1% interest in Worldwide Plaza. The Company has no debt outstanding other than its pro-rata share of the non-recourse debt on Worldwide Plaza. Exclusive of the distribution to be paid on May 23, 2022, the Company has paid aggregate cash liquidating distributions of $61.45 per unit.

On March 15, 2022, based on the current facts and circumstances surrounding the Company’s remaining investment in Worldwide Plaza, the Company’s Board of Managers approved an extension of the expiration of the LLC from November 7, 2022 to December 31, 2023.

Financial Results

Liquidation Basis of Accounting

Based on the liquidation basis of accounting, the Company reported that estimated net assets in liquidation at March 31, 2022 are currently estimated to result in future liquidating distributions of approximately $18.83 per unit. After giving effect to the $0.19 per unit distribution paid on March 28, 2022, the current estimate of future liquidating distributions represents a $0.22 per unit decrease from the Company’s estimate at December 31, 2021. The estimate of future liquidating distributions includes projections of revenues to be earned and costs and expenses to be incurred during the next 12 months including the estimated cost to dispose of our remaining investment. There is inherent uncertainty with these projections and, accordingly, the projections could change materially based on a number of factors both within and outside of the Company’s control including public health crises, such as the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), market conditions, the performance of the underlying property asset, the timing of sale and any changes in the underlying assumptions of projected cash flows.

The current estimate of net assets in liquidation at March 31, 2022 has been estimated based on undiscounted cash flow projections and assumes a final liquidation on March 31, 2023, even though the actual timing of the sale of the Company’s remaining interest in Worldwide Plaza is indeterminate, given the continuing impact of COVID-19 on the commercial real estate market, ongoing tenant negotiations and other items in the property business plan. Based on these factors and the actual timing of the sale of this property, the final liquidation of the Company is subject to future events and uncertainties. Liabilities are carried at their contractual amounts due as adjusted for the impact of timing of the planned liquidation.
