John Kim has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors surrounding the recent developments at Howard Hughes Holdings. A key aspect influencing this decision is the revised offer from Pershing Square, which involves a $900 million private placement at $90 per share. This offer represents a significant 46.4% premium compared to the unaffected price of $61.46, which suggests strong growth potential.
Additionally, the infusion of $900 million provides Howard Hughes Holdings with substantial financial resources to pursue strategic acquisitions, particularly in public and private companies. This aligns with the company’s new strategy of focusing on its core real estate operations, which is expected to drive future value. While the offer does not offer an immediate exit for current shareholders, the long-term prospects under Pershing Square’s management appear promising, supporting John Kim’s Buy rating.
In another report released on February 6, J.P. Morgan also maintained a Buy rating on the stock with a $84.00 price target.
