We believe we are unlocking value for our existing SG Holdings stockholders that had not been reflected in the market. As we step into this new chapter, our enthusiasm for the potential growth and overall prospects for both companies could not be greater. I would like to thank all of our team members for their tremendous work making this milestone achievement possible, including our investment bankers, Maxim Group, who have advised us throughout this process, as well as our legal counsel at Blank Rome."
David Villarreal commented, “Today is an incredibly exciting day for SG DevCo as we become a separate, publicly traded company. SG DevCo’s outlook is exceptionally bright, with a current project pipeline exceeding $800 million and plans to develop more than 4,000 units. As a result, we are highly encouraged about what lies ahead.”
