SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Opendoor Technologies Inc. (Nasdaq: OPEN) (“Opendoor” or the “Company”) today announced the distribution of warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock to its registered stockholders and certain convertible noteholders on Friday, November 21, 2025 (the “Distribution Date”), in accordance with the previously announced special dividend in the form of warrants.

"This warrant dividend is a statement of confidence — in our business, in our plan, and in the long-term value we're building," said Kaz Nejatian, Chief Executive Officer of Opendoor. "For too long, shareholders have been treated as an afterthought. We're reversing that. Real alignment isn't a slogan — it's structural. This dividend puts that principle into practice and is a concrete step in rebuilding our relationship with shareholders through actions, not promises."
The warrants were distributed by the Company’s warrant agent and are exercisable for cash on and following the Distribution Date, in accordance with the terms of the warrant agreement, subject to the Company’s ability to change the exercise method to net exercise as provided in the warrant agreement. A form of warrant agreement was filed as an exhibit to the Form 8-A warrant registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 21, 2025.
