Murano Global Investments Plc Announces Strategic Review, Debt Restructuring and Business
Performance Update
Mexico City, Mexico — October 7, 2026
MURANO GLOBAL INVESTMENTS PLC and its subsidiaries (the "Company" or the "Group") today announced the initiation of a strategic
review, an update on the status of its debt restructuring process, and a performance update for its hotel business in Mexico.
Our Board of Directors is undertaking a strategic review to evaluate options intended to enhance shareholder value over time. There can be no assurance that this strategic review will result in any
particular outcome or increase in shareholder value. Separately, as previously announced, the Board continues to work with certain of the Group's lenders on restructuring the Company’s indebtedness. The Group believes it is making progress, as
summarized below.
| • |
On May 25, 2026, the Company restructured its indebtedness with Sofoplus S.A.P.I. de C.V., SOFOM E.R. ("Sofoplus"). Sofoplus granted the Company a new credit line of U.S.$7,000,000, which the Company used to: (i)
repay in full a prior credit line of U.S.$3,600,000, together with accrued interest of U.S.$192,000; and (ii) make a partial payment of U.S.$2,404,700 of principal and U.S.$314,300 of interest under a second, previously existing credit line
of U.S.$6,000,000 between the Group and Sofoplus. The new credit line bears interest at an annual rate of 12% and matures in 24 months, with interest and principal payable at maturity.
|
| • |
On June 3, 2026, Exitus Capital, S.A.P.I. de C.V., SOFOM E.N.R. ("Exitus") and the Group signed a binding memorandum of understanding to begin discussions on restructuring the U.S.$27,674,966 owed under the Exitus
loan, including a potential payment in kind consisting of Private Unit 4 of the Grand Island Cancun complex. There can be no assurance that a definitive restructuring agreement will be reached on these or any other terms.
|
| • |
On June 16, 2026, the Company reached a settlement agreement with NAFIN to reduce the outstanding balance to U.S.$10,358,091, to be satisfied through a payment in kind.
|
| • |
On July 7, 2026, the Company did not make the scheduled quarterly amortization payment of U.S.$1,869,835 under the Bancomext loan associated with the Insurgentes 421 facility. The Group has initiated discussions
with Bancomext to renegotiate the principal terms of this loan, which had an outstanding balance of approximately U.S.$98.7 million as of that date. There can be no assurance that these discussions will result in a renegotiated agreement on
any particular terms, or at all.
|
| • |
On August 14, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the completion of a consensual restructuring of its U.S.$300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 11.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2031.
|
| • |
On August 28, 2026, the Company reached a settlement agreement with Administradora de Soluciones de Capital, S.A. de C.V. SOFOM E.N.R. and Arrendadora Finamo, S.A. de C.V. (together, "Finamo"). Under the
settlement, the Company agreed to transfer, as payment in kind, the properties known as "La Punta" Bajamar and Private Unit 3 of the Grand Island Cancun complex, with an agreed value of approximately MXN$1,366,988,323 (approximately U.S.$80
million), in satisfaction of the related indebtedness.
|
Management believes that the restructuring transactions and ongoing discussions described above are intended and expected to improve the Group's financial position over time by reducing or modifying
certain of its liabilities. There can be no assurance as to the timing or ultimate outcome of these efforts.
Strategic Review
As part of the strategic review, the Board is evaluating a range of alternatives intended to enhance shareholder value, which may include new business activities. Among other things, the Board is in
the preliminary stages of evaluating the potential use of a portion of the Group's land in Baja California for a possible data center project. The Group has commissioned preliminary feasibility studies, which have produced encouraging initial
results. No decision has been made to proceed with this or any other new business activity, and any such project would be subject to, among other things, further feasibility, technical, financial and legal analysis, Board approval, and any
applicable consents or authorizations. There can be no assurance that the Group will pursue this or any other new business activity, or as to the timing or outcome of the strategic review generally. The Board expects to provide further updates on
the strategic review in due course.

Grand Island Cancun
While the Company is pleased to have begun commercializing the Grand Island Cancun hotel (“GIC I”) and its residential units under the “Mondrian” brand operated by Ennismore, GIC I's commercial
performance has ramped up more slowly than expected. In particular, occupancy and average daily rates have been below budget, and management believes the ramp-up period will take longer than originally planned. Management believes that reduced
flight capacity to the Cancun area has contributed to a decrease in tourist arrivals, which it believes has affected demand.
Residentials
As of August 31, 2026, the Group has reported potential sales of Mondrian residence as follows:

Note1 - This amount represents the valuation of the 100% sqm reserved by a potential buyer. It is not the cash flow collected.
Note 2 - The U.S.$4,908,374 in down payments collected relates to 21 units with an aggregate
potential sales value of approximately U.S.$13,593,012, representing less than 40% of such potential sales value. These down payments are made pursuant to preliminary purchase requests, which are not binding and do not constitute a promise to
purchase and sell or a purchase and sale agreement. No purchase and sale agreement has been signed by both the seller and the buyer with respect to these transactions. Cancellations of the transactions completed to date may occur, and potential
buyers may withdraw their purchase requests at any time, which would require the Company to refund the down payments collected.
Mexico City
Management believes the Andaz and Mondrian hotels in Mexico City are well positioned heading into the second half of the year. Group demand expectations remain high, particularly for October and
November 2026, including anticipated demand associated with the Formula 1 Mexico City Grand Prix weekend in October, which management believes has contributed to strong advance bookings to date. The Company continues to pursue initiatives to
increase awareness of its meeting and event spaces, and both properties have aligned their commercial strategies to pursue group business opportunities, presenting a unified inventory to compete for corporate and group demand. There can be no
assurance that anticipated demand will materialize as expected.
ABOUT THE COMPANY
The Company is a Mexican real estate company with extensive experience in the design, structure and delivery of large-scale hospitality and commercial projects across Mexico with an international
outreach aimed at institutional real estate investors. It has a retained portfolio including the Andaz and Mondrian Hotels in Mexico City, and Grand Island Cancun I resort in Cancun, Mexico. Murano also has an in-place pipeline of projects in Baja
