Partnership as a lessee

PSCM has several operating lease agreements for its office, other real estate and certain equipment. PSCM’s office lease represents a significant majority of the total lease commitment; it is noncancelable and expires on January 31, 2034. PSCM has the option to extend the office lease term for an additional 15 years at the end of the initial term. Because PSCM is not reasonably certain to exercise the renewal option, the option is not considered in determining the lease term, and associated potential option payments are excluded from lease payments.

Prior to January 30, 2026, PSCM subleased a portion of its office space to NEOX Public Benefit LLC (“Subtenant” or “NEOX”), an entity affiliated with Mr. Ackman. The sublease commenced on December 5, 2022 and would have expired on December 31, 2033.

 

On January 30, 2026, PSCM agreed to the terms of a modified office lease agreement with the Landlord to remove the office space that PSCM has historically subleased to NEOX. Concurrently, PSCM agreed to terminate its sublease with NEOX. The terms of the modified lease and sublease took effect on March 1, 2026.

 

In accordance with ASC 842, the Partnership accounted for the amendment to the office lease with the Landlord as a lease modification, requiring the Partnership to recalculate the ROU asset, lease liability and lease expense over the respective lease term. The lease classification and lease term did not change.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Subtenant paid $546,420 (2025: $696,757) of rent, and $113,080 (2025: $138,099) for office-related services. Both amounts are included in other income (expense).

 

Between 2021 and 2022, PSCM provided various landlord incentives which were capitalized as a deferred asset and amortized over the life of the lease. As of December 31, 2025, the unamortized portion of the deferred sublease incentive was $4,129,121. Following the termination of the NEOX sublease, the remaining balance of the deferred sublease incentive was recognized as a loss in other income (expense).
