Blackstone (NYSE: BX) has announced the acquisition of Safe Harbor Marinas from Sun Communities for $5.65 billion. Safe Harbor is the largest marina and superyacht servicing business in the United States, operating 138 marinas across the U.S. and Puerto Rico.
The acquisition aligns with Blackstone Infrastructure's strategy of investing in sectors with strong tailwinds, particularly the growing travel and leisure industry and population shifts to coastal cities. Blackstone Infrastructure has shown significant growth, managing $55 billion in assets and achieving approximately 40% year-over-year growth since inception.
Wells Fargo served as lead financial advisor and provided committed financing for the transaction, while Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP acted as legal advisors.
Sun Communities (NYSE: SUI) has announced the sale of Safe Harbor Marinas to Blackstone Infrastructure for $5.65 billion in an all-cash transaction. The deal represents a 21x multiple on Safe Harbor's estimated 2024 FFO and is expected to generate approximately $5.5 billion in pre-tax proceeds after transaction costs.
The strategic sale will reposition Sun as a pure-play MH and RV focused REIT, with these segments expected to account for about 90% of the Company's NOI post-transaction. The deal will significantly improve Sun's leverage profile, reducing its net debt to EBITDA ratio from 6.0x to between 2.5x and 3.0x at closing.
The transaction, expected to close in Q2 2025, will generate an estimated book gain of $1.3 billion from Sun's four-year ownership of Safe Harbor. The proceeds will be used for debt reduction, shareholder distributions, and reinvestment in core businesses.
