Acadia Realty Trust (NYSE:AKR) ("Acadia" or the "Company") priced an underwritten offering of 9,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest at a price to the public of $21.95 per share. The underwriters were granted a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 1,350,000 common shares in addition to the base offering of 9,000,000 common shares. The offering is expected to close on June 11, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. BofA Securities, Jefferies, Truist Securities and Wells Fargo Securities are acting as joint book-running managers for the offering.

The Company has entered into forward sale agreements with each of Bank of America, N.A., Jefferies, Truist Bank and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association or their affiliates (the "forward purchasers") with respect to 9,000,000 of its common shares. In connection with the forward sale agreements, the forward purchasers or their affiliates are expected to borrow and sell to the underwriters an aggregate of 9,000,000 common shares that will be delivered in the offering. Subject to its right to elect cash or net share settlement, which right is subject to certain conditions, the Company intends to deliver, upon physical settlement of such forward sale agreements on one or more dates specified by the Company occurring no later than June 9, 2027, an aggregate of 9,000,000 common shares (or an aggregate of 10,350,000 common shares if the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full) to the forward purchasers in exchange for cash proceeds per share equal to the applicable forward sale price, subject to certain adjustments as provided in the forward sale agreements. If the underwriters exercise their option to purchase additional shares, the Company will enter into one or more additional forward sale agreements with each of the forward purchasers in respect of the number of common shares that are subject to exercise of the option to purchase additional shares.

The Company will not initially receive any proceeds from the sale of common shares by the forward purchasers or their affiliates in the offering. The Company intends to use the net proceeds, if any, it receives upon the future settlement of the forward sale agreements to fund acquisition opportunities arising in its existing street portfolio markets and/or for other general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of outstanding indebtedness, working capital and other general corporate purpose activities. Such decisions will depend upon various factors, including market conditions and strategic considerations. Pending such usage, the Company expects to invest the net proceeds in short-term instruments.

The offering is being made only by means of a prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus, which was filed as part of an effective shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on Form S-3 (File No. 333-275356).
