Land and Buildings Comments on Statement from Tracinda Corporation
Stamford, CT (May 1, 2015) – Land and Buildings today issued the following comment on the statement issued by Tracinda Corporation (“Tracinda”) regarding MGM Resorts International (NYSE: MGM) (“MGM”).
“We are encouraged by Tracinda’s comments regarding their support of evaluating all avenues to deliver value at MGM, including a potential REIT conversion, as well as their commitment to the highest standard of compensation practices. It has been our stance all along that unlocking value needs to be a focus of MGM’s board, and based on our analysis in consultation with advisors, we believe the net asset value of MGM is in the range of $30-$33 a share – representing significant upside to the current share price. However, we also believe that with their deep experience our board nominees are uniquely positioned to help drive a credible review of the options at MGM and ensure that the best ideas prevail. Given the lack of urgency MGM has demonstrated to date around exploring ways to enhance shareholder value, we believe that the addition of new voices and skill sets to the board of MGM is needed, and needed now.”
