Forward Guidance

Vornado is actively managing its portfolio, as evidenced by the 350 Park Avenue deal and continued development projects. However, the ground rent reset at PENN 1 and general market volatility pose risks.

Positive Outlook

  • Citadel master leasing 350 Park Avenue for 10 years at $36 million annual net rent.
  • Joint venture with Rudin to purchase 39 East 51st Street for $40 million.
  • Potential for KG to acquire a 60% interest in a joint venture to develop a new office tower.
  • Citadel or its affiliates will execute a pre-negotiated 15-year anchor lease for approximately 850,000 square feet at the Project.
  • Vornado/Rudin has the option to put the Site to KG for $1.2 billion.

Challenges Ahead

  • The 13.2% projected return for PENN 1 is before the ground rent reset in 2023, which may be material.
  • There can be no assurance that the projects will be completed, completed on schedule or within budget.
  • There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in leasing the properties on the expected schedule or at the assumed rental rates.
  • Increase in interest rates and inflation.
  • Continuing effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.
