This filing provides a critical update on Stratus Properties' financial performance and its progress in executing the board-approved plan of complete liquidation and dissolution. The company reported a significant turnaround in Q1 2026, moving from a net loss to a net income of $6.6 million and a strong EBITDA of $17.1 million, largely driven by substantial asset sales. The successful sale of Kingwood Place for $60.8 million and other assets under contract totaling over $60 million demonstrate effective monetization of its portfolio. These results are crucial as shareholders prepare to vote on the liquidation plan on June 1, 2026, and they support the previously announced estimated liquidating distribution range of $29.73 to $37.69 per share, with the lower end already above the current stock price. The ongoing share repurchase program further indicates management's confidence in returning value to shareholders.
