Transaction Advisory

Acquisition Analysis

Green Street's expertise in finding value among publicly traded REITs has been utilized to identify privatization targets. Our role begins with compiling and analyzing data on all publicly traded REITs in the target sector, including those outside of Green Street's coverage universe. For each company that presents an opportunity, we discuss the relative feasibility of a privatization transaction. From here, we focus on valuing all favorable acquisition candidates through a quantitative and qualitative analysis. This consists of assessments of how each company stacks up on key variables including financials, management track record and motivations, ownership characteristics, investor and analyst perceptions, and the impact of current pricing. In addition, we determine the attractiveness of the portfolio by looking at the company's major market concentrations and each market's economic outlook.
