Seaport Entertainment Group Inc. reported a significant increase in net loss and a decline in revenues for Q1 2026, following the preliminary announcement in an 8-K filing on May 6, 2026. The net loss attributable to common stockholders widened by 38% to $44.1 million, primarily driven by a 21% decrease in total revenues to $12.7 million and a 149% increase in depreciation and amortization expenses due to asset disposal and accelerated depreciation from the closure of the Tin Building by Jean-Georges. However, the company significantly improved its liquidity and balance sheet by completing the sale of 250 Water Street for $143.0 million and using a portion of the proceeds to pay off a $61.3 million mortgage. This resulted in a substantial increase in cash provided by investing activities to $130.0 million and a healthy cash and cash equivalents balance of $114.8 million at quarter-end. The company also noted a $150 million shelf registration, effective March 16, 2026, providing future capital raising flexibility.
