Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. (NYSE:ALEX) is a key player in the commercial real estate sector in Hawai’i. The company owns, operates, and develops properties, with a focus on high-quality, grocery-anchored shopping centers. ALEX’s portfolio includes around 4 million square feet of commercial space, featuring 21 retail centers, making it the largest owner of such properties in the region.

On December 10, 2025, Industrial Alliance Securities set a price target of $20.85 for ALEX. At that time, ALEX’s stock was priced at $20.88, showing a minor difference of -0.14% from the target. This slight variance indicates that the stock was trading close to the expected value set by the analysts.

ALEX is undergoing a significant transition as it enters a definitive merger agreement to be taken private. The Investor Group, consisting of MW Group, Blackstone Real Estate, and DivcoWest, will acquire all outstanding ALEX shares for $21.20 each in an all-cash deal, valuing the enterprise at approximately $2.3 billion, including debt.

The stock’s current price of $20.88 reflects a small increase of 0.03, or 0.14%, from the previous session. Today, ALEX’s stock has fluctuated between $20.85 and $20.94. Over the past year, it has seen a high of $20.97 and a low of $15.07. The company’s market capitalization is about $1.52 billion, with a trading volume of 1,650,903 shares on the NYSE.

This transition from a public to a private company marks a new chapter for ALEX. The acquisition by the Investor Group highlights the value and potential of ALEX’s assets in the commercial real estate market. As the company moves forward, it will continue to play a significant role in Hawai’i’s real estate landscape.
