The Howard Hughes Corporation® ("HHC") and Howard Hughes Holdings Inc.® ("Howard Hughes Holdings") today announced completion of the previously announced holding company structure, making Howard Hughes Holdings the parent holding company of HHC. Howard Hughes Holdings replaces HHC as the public company trading on the New York Stock Exchange. HHC traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "HHC". Commencing on Monday, August 14, 2023, Howard Hughes Holdings will trade under the new ticker symbol "HHH".
Each existing share of HHC common stock outstanding immediately prior to the reorganization has automatically converted, on a one-for-one basis, into a share of common stock of Howard Hughes Holdings, having the same designation, rights, powers, and preferences and qualifications, limitations, and restrictions as a share of HHC common stock immediately prior to the reorganization. Accordingly, HHC stockholders automatically became stockholders of Howard Hughes Holdings with the same number and ownership percentage of shares in Howard Hughes Holdings as they held in HHC immediately prior to the reorganization. HHC now operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Howard Hughes Holdings. The Board of Directors and the executive officers of HHC immediately prior to the reorganization continue in their same roles at Howard Hughes Holdings.
The holding company reorganization, which is intended to be a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for HHC's stockholders, will promote the growth of its businesses, including by providing additional flexibility to fund future investment opportunities and to segregate assets and related liabilities in separate subsidiaries.
Howard Hughes Holding's common stock (NYSE: HHH) will begin trading at the opening of trading on August 14, 2023, under the new CUSIP number 44267T102.
