Independence Realty Trust, Inc. (IRT) furnished a slide presentation that it may use in investor presentations beginning September 24, 2026.

Independence Realty Trust, Inc. (IRT) amended its merger agreement with Centerspace on September 22, 2026, electing an alternative structure solely for the proposed Company Merger. Centerspace would merge into IRT Merger Sub, which would survive as IRT’s wholly owned subsidiary, rather than IRT Merger Sub merging into Centerspace.
The separate Partnership Merger remains structured for IRT OP Merger Sub to merge into Centerspace, LP, which would survive as a subsidiary of IRT OP.

Independence Realty Trust, Inc. (IRT) entered into a definitive all-stock merger agreement to combine with Centerspace (CSR), creating a larger middle‑market multifamily REIT. Each share of CSR common stock will be converted into 3.800 shares of IRT common stock, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares, and a parallel exchange applies to CSR operating partnership units.
The combined company is expected to have a pro forma equity market capitalization of about $5.0 billion, an enterprise value of about $8.1 billion, and a portfolio of more than 44,000 apartment units across 163 communities in 17 states, with pro forma NOI weighted 58% Sunbelt, 27% Midwest and 15% Mountain West. IRT will issue approximately 67.6 million shares and common units; IRT stockholders are expected to own roughly 78% and CSR holders about 22% of the combined equity (excluding preferred units). The transaction is targeted to close as early as the fourth quarter of 2026, subject to shareholder approvals, lender consents, regulatory effectiveness of a Form S‑4, and other customary conditions.

Dividend policies are constrained by the merger agreement: IRT may continue regular quarterly dividends up to $0.18 per share, CSR up to $0.77 per share per quarter plus a prorated stub dividend of $0.09 in the closing quarter, with coordinated record dates and potential REIT‑driven special dividends that would adjust the exchange ratio.
