SIMON PROPERTY GROUP, INC.
Simon Property Group, Inc. is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust whose common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol SPG, alongside its 8⅜% Series J Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock under SPGJ. It files with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under Commission File No. 001-14469 (CIK 0001063761) and its principal executive offices and corporate headquarters are at 225 West Washington Street, Indianapolis, Indiana 46204.
The jurisdiction shown on the card above needs correction. The cover page of the Form 10-K for the year ended 31 December 2025 states that Simon Property Group, Inc. is an Indiana corporation. It became one at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on 15 May 2025, when a redomestication by conversion out of Delaware, approved by shareholders on 14 May 2025, took effect. EDGAR still carries the former names “Simon Property Group Inc /DE/” and “Corporate Property Investors Inc”. The Mississippi Secretary of State record numbered 602586 is a state-level business registration, not the incorporation record, and the 3 December 1993 date attached to it is not the incorporation date of the registrant named on that cover page.
Simon qualifies as a REIT under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and must distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income each year to keep that status — a legal obligation the 10-K gives as the reason the business regularly returns to the debt markets.
The company owns, develops and manages shopping, dining, entertainment and mixed-use destinations, principally malls, Premium Outlets and The Mills. At 31 December 2025 it owned or held an interest in 212 income-producing properties in the United States — 108 malls, 70 Premium Outlets, 16 Mills, six lifestyle centres and 12 other retail properties — across 38 states and Puerto Rico, plus interests in 42 properties in Asia, Europe and Canada and a 22.2% equity stake in the Paris-listed operator Klépierre SA. At 30 June 2026 the portfolio was reported as 254 properties of 206 million square feet. It also holds retail and platform investments including 31.3% of Catalyst Brands LLC, Rue Gilt Groupe and Jamestown.
Consolidated total revenue for 2025 was US$6.365 billion, against US$5.964 billion in 2024. Approximately 3,600 people were employed at 31 December 2025, around 500 of them part-time and roughly 1,000 at the Indianapolis headquarters. On 31 October 2025 Simon Property Group, Inc. acquired the remaining 12% of The Taubman Realty Group, LLC. The corporate and investor site is simon.com and investors.simon.com; the simonpropertygroup.us address stored on this page is a company-controlled vanity domain that redirects to business.simon.com.

Directors and officers of Simon Property Group, Inc.
Thirteen directors were elected at the annual meeting held on 13 May 2026. Eleven were elected by the holders of voting shares and all eleven are independent under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards: Glyn F. Aeppel (director since 2016), Martin J. Cicco (2026), Larry C. Glasscock (2010), Nina P. Jones (2024), Reuben S. Leibowitz (2005), Randall J. Lewis (2023), Gary M. Rodkin (2015), Peggy Fang Roe (2021), Stefan M. Selig (2017), Daniel C. Smith, Ph.D. (2009) and Marta R. Stewart (2018). Two further directors, Eli Simon and Richard S. Sokolov (Vice Chairman, director since 1996), were elected by the trustee of the voting trust holding the Class B common stock and are not independent. A third Class B seat was vacant at the date of the proxy statement.
The executive officers named in the Form 10-K filed on 25 February 2026 were David Simon, Eli Simon, John Rulli (Chief Administrative Officer), Steven E. Fivel (General Counsel and Secretary), Brian J. McDade (Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer), Adam J. Reuille (Senior Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer), Donald G. Frey (Treasurer and Executive Vice President) and Kevin M. Kelly (Assistant General Counsel and Assistant Secretary). That list has since changed, as set out below.
Recent officer changes
- Death of the Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President. David Simon, who had chaired the board since 2007, served as chief executive since 1995 and as president since 2019, and was one of the three Class B directors, died on 22 March 2026. The company announced it on 23 March 2026. The voting trustee had not exercised its right to fill the resulting Class B vacancy as at 1 April 2026.
- New chief executive and non-executive chairman, effective 23 March 2026. The board appointed Eli Simon as Chief Executive Officer and President; he continues as Chief Operating Officer, a role he has held since 2025, and as a director. Larry C. Glasscock, an independent director, was appointed Non-Executive Chairman of the Board on the same date and continues on the Audit and Governance and Nominating Committees.
- New independent director, effective 5 February 2026. Martin J. Cicco, formerly Head of Real Estate Advisory at Evercore and Global Head of Real Estate Investment Banking at Merrill Lynch, joined the board and stood for election for the first time in May 2026.
Two earlier departures are recorded in the same filings: Herbert Simon retired from the board effective 4 February 2025 and Allan Hubbard retired effective 14 May 2025.
Data availability
Full for current officers, partial for historical detail. U.S. securities filings give the board, the executive officers, their roles, ages and the year each director joined, but they do not publish individual appointment or resignation dates for executive officers, and no U.S. federal filing discloses a director’s or officer’s nationality — nationality is therefore not disclosed for every person named here and must not be inferred from the Indianapolis business address. Indiana’s state business register is the registry of record for the entity but does not publish a full officer list.
The 30 officer rows stored on this profile are unreliable and were not used. Every row is marked ACTIVE, only one carries an appointment date, and David Simon is still shown as an active Chairman, CEO and President six months after his death. Several people appear twice, once under a state-filing role such as “Governor” and once under an executive title, and four job titles are truncated to “Dire”, “Secr”, “Pres” and “Assi”. Two rows — “C T Corporation System” and a corrupted “C Orporaion Sysem” — are registered agents rather than officers, and one locality field reads “33 INDIANAPOLIS”. Of the eleven independent directors, only Glyn F. Aeppel appears at all, with her role truncated.

Group Structure
Group structure of Simon Property Group, Inc.
Simon Property Group, Inc. has no parent. It is the top company of its group and is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT (UPREIT), and understanding that is the key to reading anything published about it, because two separate registrants share the name. Simon Property Group, Inc. is the listed REIT (NYSE: SPG, Commission File No. 001-14469). Simon Property Group, L.P. is a separate registrant — an Indiana limited partnership, Commission File No. 001-36110, CIK 0001022344 — which owns, directly or indirectly, substantially all of the group’s real estate and other assets, conducts substantially all of its business, and incurs all of its debt. The two file a single combined Form 10-K but remain distinct legal persons, and figures should be attributed to whichever entity the filing names.
Simon Property Group, Inc. is the sole general partner of the partnership and had an approximate 85.4% ownership interest in it at 31 December 2025, the remaining 14.6% being held by limited partners whose units are exchangeable for common shares or cash. The 10-K states that Simon Property Group, Inc. itself conducts no business other than acting as general partner and issuing equity, and has no material assets or liabilities other than its investment in the partnership.

Exhibit 21.1 to the 2025 Form 10-K names a further eight significant subsidiaries with their jurisdictions: Simon Property Group (Illinois), L.P. (Illinois); Simon Property Group (Texas), L.P. (Texas); M.S. Management Associates, Inc. (Delaware); Simon Property Group Administrative Services Partnership, L.P. (Delaware); Kravco Simon Investments, L.P. (Pennsylvania); Premium Outlet Partners, L.P. (Delaware); SPG Mayflower, LLC (Delaware); The Simon Realty Group, LLC (Delaware); and Simon Services, Inc. (Delaware). The exhibit states that it omits subsidiaries that were not, in the aggregate, significant subsidiaries at 31 December 2025, so it is not a complete list of the group.
Recent structural changes
- 31 October 2025 — acquisition of the remaining interest in The Taubman Realty Group, LLC. Simon had held an 88% non-controlling interest in TRG from 2020; on 31 October 2025 it acquired the outstanding 12%, issuing 4,980,693 operating-partnership units as part of the consideration and recognising a non-cash gain of $2.9 billion on remeasuring its previously held interest. Eleven former TRG properties are now accounted for as equity-method investments.
- 15 May 2025 — redomestication of both entities from Delaware to Indiana. Certificates of conversion were filed in Delaware and articles of domestication in Indiana on 14 May 2025; the company’s conversion took effect at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on 15 May 2025 and the operating partnership’s at 12:02 a.m. The company states that neither conversion changed its headquarters, business, properties, assets, liabilities or net worth.
- 21 July 2025 — incorporation of a UK subsidiary. Simon International Administrative Services Limited was incorporated in England and Wales with a registered office at 2 Sheraton Street, London W1F 8BH, and Simon Property Group, Inc. was entered on the same date as its person with significant control.
Data availability
Partial. United States disclosure requires only significant subsidiaries to be listed, and Exhibit 21.1 gives jurisdictions but no registration numbers and no ownership percentages, so most intra-group holdings cannot be quantified from public filings; the UK subsidiary is the exception, because the Companies House register of persons with significant control states a control band and a notification date.
The corporate-structure tree stored on this profile holds 172 nodes and is broadly consistent with the group, but it should be read with care. It carries no ownership percentage on any node. It lists Simon Property Group, L.P. twice as a direct child of the company, under two different identifiers, where there is one such partnership. It records The Simon Realty Group, LLC as a Michigan entity where Exhibit 21.1 states Delaware. The identifier on the company’s own node is an Indiana business identifier created on the 2025 redomestication, not a 1993-era record. The Taubman entities beneath “Silver Merger Sub 1, LLC” reflect the 2020 acquisition vehicle rather than any current holding chain.
