SAN FRANCISCO, CA, April  01, 2025  (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Portsmouth Square, Inc. (OTC: PRSI) ("Portsmouth Square" or "the Company") today announced the successful refinancing of its flagship asset, the Hilton San Francisco Financial District Hotel. This strategic refinancing positions the Company for improved financial flexibility and stability in managing its premier hospitality asset.

The refinancing was executed through Justice Operating Company, LLC ("Justice"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Portsmouth Square. Justice secured a $67 million mortgage loan agreement with PRIME Finance, arranged by Eastdil Secured, LLC a leading global real estate investment banking firm. The loan carries a floating interest rate equal to the 30-day Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 4.80%, and to proactively manage interest rate risk, Justice has secured an interest rate cap, limiting SOFR exposure to a maximum rate of 4.50%.
