Lennar confirmed that the exchange offer for its remaining approximately 20% stake in Millrose Properties will expire at 12:00 midnight on November 21, 2025. The offer can only be completed once the Securities and Exchange Commission declares Millrose’s registration statement effective, a condition that has been delayed by the federal government shutdown.
Millrose requested that the registration statement become effective on November 17, 2025, and Lennar will accept tendered shares subject to proration. If the registration statement is not effective by the expiration date, Lennar will either extend the offer or terminate it without accepting any shares, giving shareholders a clear deadline for participation.
The confirmation provides Millrose shareholders with a definitive timeline for the exchange of shares, a core element of the spin‑off arrangement that began with the February 2025 separation of 80% of Millrose from Lennar. The transaction aligns with Lennar’s broader strategy to become a land‑light, asset‑light homebuilder, allowing the company to focus on core construction activities while reducing exposure to land‑holding costs.
Financial context underscores the strategic rationale: Lennar’s Q4 2024 results showed a decline in revenue and a miss in earnings per share, while its Q3 2025 results revealed higher new orders but lower gross margins. Millrose’s Q3 2025 financials reported net income of $105.1 million on revenue of $179.3 million, demonstrating a healthy, low‑leverage REIT profile that supports the exchange.
Regulatory delays have pushed the effective date of the registration statement, prompting the latest expiration deadline. The federal shutdown has slowed SEC processing, leading to repeated extensions of the offer and adding uncertainty for shareholders.
Management emphasized that completing the exchange will streamline Lennar’s capital structure, reduce land‑asset exposure, and reinforce the company’s long‑term growth strategy, signaling confidence in the benefits of a more focused, land‑light business model.
