Business and Organization
1. Business and Organization
DigitalBridge Group, Inc. ("DBRG," and together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company") is a leading global investment manager in digital infrastructure. The Company deploys and manages capital on behalf of its investors and shareholders across the digital infrastructure ecosystem, including but not limited to, data centers, cell towers and fiber networks. The Company's investment management platform is anchored by its flagship value-add digital infrastructure equity offerings, as well as offerings in core equity, credit, liquid securities, and its InfraBridge mid-market infrastructure equity.
Organization
The Company operates as a taxable C Corporation and conducts all of its activities and holds substantially all of its assets and liabilities through its operating subsidiary, DigitalBridge Operating Company, LLC (the "Operating Company" or the "OP"). The Company, as sole managing member, owned 97% of the OP at December 31, 2025, with the remaining 3% owned by certain current and former employees of the Company as noncontrolling interest.
Proposed Acquisition of DBRG
On December 29, 2025, DBRG, the Operating Company and indirect subsidiaries of SoftBank Group Corp. (TSE: 9984, "SoftBank") entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, DBRG and the Operating Company would be acquired by such indirect subsidiaries pursuant to a series of mergers (the "Merger").
SoftBank, through its indirect subsidiaries, will acquire all of (i) DBRG's issued and outstanding common stock and (ii) the OP common units that are not held by DBRG and the Operating Company (unless otherwise agreed by a holder of OP units and SoftBank through its indirect subsidiary), for $16.00 per share or per unit in cash. The preferred stock of DBRG and the Operating Company will remain outstanding. Warrants to purchase DBRG's common stock will be treated in accordance with the terms of the applicable warrant agreements.
Consummation of the Merger requires approval by DBRG’s common stockholders, and is subject to certain other closing conditions, including receipt of required consents for the Company’s flagship investment funds and from a specified percentage of fee-paying clients of the Company, and receipt of regulatory approvals, as well as customary closing conditions.
Upon consummation of the Merger, the Company will become an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of SoftBank.
