| Item 7.01. | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On December 19, 2025, Rithm Property Trust Inc. (the “Company”)
issued a press release announcing the Reverse Stock Split (as defined below). A copy of the press release is attached to this Form 8-K
as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
The information provided in Item 7.01 of this Report, including Exhibit
99.1, is being furnished and shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be incorporated by reference into
any of the Company’s filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, unless expressly set forth as being
incorporated by reference into such filing.
On December 19, 2025, the Company announced that its Board of Directors
unanimously approved a reverse stock split of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), and the outstanding
common units (“Common Units”) of its operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), at a ratio of one share
for every six shares presently outstanding (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The Reverse Stock Split is expected to take effect
at approximately 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on December 30, 2025 (the “Effective Time”). Every six shares of Common Stock outstanding
at that time will automatically be converted into one share of Common Stock and likewise corresponding adjustments will be made to each
outstanding Common Unit of the Operating Partnership.
No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse
Stock Split. Instead, each stockholder that would hold fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split will be entitled to receive
a cash payment in lieu of such fractional shares. The Reverse Stock Split will apply to all of the Company’s outstanding shares
of Common Stock as of the Effective Time and therefore will not affect the relative percentage of shares owned by any particular stockholder,
except for de minimis changes as a result of the elimination of fractional shares. The Reverse Stock Split will also not affect the relative
voting or other rights that accompany the shares of Common Stock except to the extent that it results in a stockholder receiving cash
in lieu of fractional shares.
As a net result of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock will be decreased from 45,401,123 shares issued and outstanding as of December 15, 2025 to approximately 7,566,853
shares giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split. At the market open on December 31, 2025, the Common Stock is expected to begin trading
on a Reverse Stock Split-adjusted basis under the new CUSIP number 38983D 854.
Stockholders of record will receive information from Equiniti Trust
Company, LLC, the Company’s transfer agent, regarding their stock ownership following the Reverse Stock Split and, if applicable,
payments of cash in lieu of fractional shares. Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or in “street name”
are not required to take any action in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.
Risk Factors
The Company is including the below risk factor for the purpose of supplementing
and updating the disclosure contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on February 18, 2025.
The reverse stock split may decrease the liquidity of the shares
of our common stock and could lead to a decrease in our overall market capitalization.
The liquidity of the shares of our common stock may be affected adversely
by a reverse stock split proposed to be effected by the Company given the reduced number of shares of our common stock that will be outstanding
following such reverse stock split, especially if the market price of our common stock does not increase as a result of the reverse stock
split.
The proposed reverse stock split, if effected, should have the effect
of increasing the per share trading price of our common stock but there is no assurance that the trading price of our common stock after
the reverse stock split will rise (or remain constant) in proportion to the reduction in the number of shares of common stock outstanding
before the reverse stock split. The history of stock splits for other companies is varied, particularly because some investors may view
a stock split negatively. We cannot predict the impact of the reverse stock split on the trading price of our common stock. Our total
market capitalization after the reverse stock split, if completed, may be lower than our total market capitalization before the reverse
stock split.
