The transaction marks a significant milestone for Great Ajax, with plans to transition the company from a legacy residential loan platform into an opportunistic vehicle focused on commercial real estate. Additionally, Rithm expects that Great Ajax will realize strategic benefits from synergies with Rithm’s operating platforms and from the change in direction of its investment program. Rithm is focused on delivering strong results for Great Ajax stockholders as it embarks on a new chapter.

“We are excited to close this transaction as we continue to invest in the strategic growth of our global asset management platform,” said Michael Nierenberg, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of Rithm. “We believe this transaction positions Great Ajax to pursue a focused commercial real estate investment strategy that will unlock value for stockholders.”

The transaction was previously announced on February 26, 2024, and was approved by Great Ajax stockholders on May 20, 2024. With the completion of the transaction, Rithm purchased 2.9 million shares of Great Ajax common stock from Great Ajax pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement.
