Zoned Properties Closes Related-Party Business Sale and Redeems All Outstanding Preferred Stock
According to the Form 8-K filed by Zoned Properties, Inc. (Commission File No. 000-51640), the company completed the sale of its business and substantially all of its assets to BPB Partners, LLC on October 30, 2026. The transaction was governed by an Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement dated September 30, 2026, which itself amended and restated an original agreement dated January 15, 2026. The filing disclosed that the purchase price of $7,800,000 was increased from the original $7,000,000 by $800,000 to offset a corresponding reduction in the sale price of the Chino Valley property, so that, according to the filing, "the net consideration to the Company's stockholders would remain the same."
The assets transferred to the Buyer included the company's 100% membership interests in multiple subsidiaries and real properties located in Tempe and Surprise, Arizona, and Chicago, Illinois, as well as the company's 5% membership interest in ZP Ohio B, LLC. The filing noted that the company retained its 100% ownership interest in ZP RE AZ Dunlap, LLC, which is party to an active purchase and sale agreement with an escrow in place. The filing also disclosed that on September 2, 2026, the company separately completed the sale of the Chino Valley, Arizona property for $7,200,000, reduced from $8,000,000, and that this property was not part of the Asset Sale.
Because BPB Partners, LLC is owned by company insiders McLaren, Blackwell, and Moroney, the filing characterizes the transaction as a related-party transaction. The filing states that the Original APA, A&R APA, and Asset Sale were reviewed, negotiated, and approved by a Special Transactions Committee composed solely of the company's three independent directors. The filing also notes that on June 9, 2026, Marshall and Stevens Transaction Advisory Services LLC delivered a fairness opinion to the Special Transactions Committee regarding the purchase price. Concurrent with the closing, the company executed redemption agreements with Gregory Johnston and McLaren Family LLLP, redeeming a combined 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock for $1,000,000 each, returning those shares to authorized and unissued status.
