Hudson Pacific Properties Announces Pricing of $600 Million Public Offering

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. (“Hudson Pacific” or the “Company”) (NYSE: HPP) today announced the pricing of an underwritten public offering of 197,194,698 shares of its common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase 71,863,597 shares of its common stock. The shares of common stock are being sold at a public offering price of $2.23 per share and the pre-funded warrants are being sold at a public offering price of $2.22 per warrant, which represents the per share public offering price for the common stock, less the $0.01 per share exercise price for each such pre-funded warrant. The underwriters have been granted a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 40,358,744 shares at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount. The Company estimates the offering will generate net proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts (before other transaction costs and excluding the exercise of any pre-funded warrants), of approximately $575.6 million, or $662.0 million if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full. All of the securities to be sold in the offering will be offered by the Company pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The offering is expected to close on or about June 13, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.

Hudson Pacific plans to contribute the net proceeds from this offering to its operating partnership, which intends to use the net proceeds to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility, repay other indebtedness and/or for general corporate purposes. Pending these applications, the Company’s operating partnership intends to invest the net proceeds from this offering in interest-bearing accounts and short-term, interest-bearing securities in a manner that is consistent with our intention to qualify for taxation as a real estate investment trust.

The lead joint book-running managers for the offering are BofA Securities, Wells Fargo Securities and RBC Capital Markets, and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC are serving as the joint book-running managers.
