Trinity Place Holdings Inc. Reports Third Quarter Financial Results

Trinity Place Holdings Inc. (OTC PINK: TPHS) (the "Company," "we," "our," or "us") today announced operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

The Company is an intellectual property holding, investment, and commercialization company. We own and control a portfolio of intellectual property assets focused on the consumer sector, a legacy of our predecessor, Syms Corp. (“Syms”), including FilenesBasement.com, our rights to the Stanley Blacker® brand, as well as the intellectual property associated with the Running of the Brides® event and the An Educated Consumer is Our Best Customer® slogan. Our strategy today centers on monetizing these assets through brand licensing, e-commerce initiatives, strategic partnerships, and protection and enforcement of our intellectual property rights.

Secured Promissory Note

On February 18, 2025, the Company issued a Senior Secured Promissory Note (the “Steel Promissory Note”) to Steel Connect, LLC (the “Steel Lender”), an affiliate of Steel Partners Holdings L.P. (“Steel Partners”), pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $5.0 million from the Steel Lender. The Steel Promissory Note is secured by a pledge of all of the assets of the Company. As of September 30, 2025, approximately $1.3 million, including accrued interest, was outstanding under the Steel Promissory Note.

Steel Services Agreement

As of March 19, 2025, Steel Services Ltd. (“Steel Services”), an affiliate of Steel Partners, and the Company entered into a management services agreement (the “Steel MSA”) pursuant to which Steel Services agreed to provide certain managerial services to the Company. Pursuant to the Steel MSA, for a period of one year (which shall renew automatically for additional one-year terms unless otherwise terminated), Steel Services shall provide certain managerial services to the Company, including general assistance with legal, finance & treasury, internal audit, human resources, IT and tax functions and obligations. In consideration for the services rendered under the Steel MSA, the Company shall pay Steel Services $10,000 monthly.

Pension Settlement and Plan Asset Reversion

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognized a non-cash settlement charge of $2.6 million due to the purchase of annuity contracts related to the termination of the legacy pension plan, as well as $0.5 million excise tax on the estimated reversion of pension plan assets.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company received cash proceeds of approximately $0.9 million for the pension asset reversion and paid approximately $0.4 million for the related excise tax.

Stock Repurchases

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company entered an agreement with a shareholder (the “Seller”) pursuant to which the Company committed to repurchase (1) 1,100,000 shares of its Common Stock (the “Common Stock”), par value $0.01 per share, and (2) one share of the Company’s Special Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Special Stock”, and together with the Common Stock, the “Purchased Shares”) from the Seller in exchange for a cash payment of $0.04 per share of Common Stock and $0.04 for the Special Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $44.0 thousand. The Special Stock provided the Seller the right to appoint a member to the Board of Directors, which right was retired by the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company executed another agreement with another shareholder pursuant to which the Company repurchased 200,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share for a total cash payment of $8.0 thousand, representing a purchase price of $0.04 per share.

Net Operating Losses

At September 30, 2025, the Company had carryforwards of federal net operating losses (“NOLs”) of approximately $330.7 million available to reduce future federal taxes. Of the Company’s federal NOLs, $226.9 million were generated prior to 2018 and may expire if unused by 2037, and $103.8 million were generated in 2018 and later years and can be carried forward indefinitely subject to an 80 percent taxable income annual limitation.

Based on management’s assessment, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets associated with the NOLs will not be realized by future taxable income or tax planning strategies. Accordingly, the Company has a valuation allowance of $91.5 million as of September 30, 2025. If our assumptions change and we determine that we will be able to realize these NOLs, the tax benefits relating to any reversal of the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets would be recognized as a reduction of income tax expense and an increase in the deferred tax asset.

Note that our certificate of incorporation includes a provision intended to help preserve certain tax benefits primarily associated with our NOLs. This provision generally prohibits transfers of stock that would result in a person or group of persons becoming a 4.75 percent stockholder, or that would result in an increase or decrease in stock ownership by a person or group of persons that is an existing 4.75 percent stockholder.
