Report** of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Seaport Entertainment Group Inc.:

Opinion* on the Combined Financial *Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated and combined balance sheets of Seaport Entertainment Group Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated and combined statements of operations, equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes and financial Schedule III (collectively, the consolidated and combined financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated and combined financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Carve-out* Basis of Accounting*

As discussed in Note 1, the consolidated and combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and the consolidated and combined statement of operations for the period from January 1, 2024 to July 31, 2024 and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, are presented as if the Company had been carved out of Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. (HHH) to reflect attribution of certain assets and liabilities that had been held at HHH which are specifically identifiable or attributable to the Company as well as allocations deemed reasonable by management to present the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of the Company on a standalone basis and may not reflect the results of operations, financial position and cash flows had the Company operated as a standalone company during the period presented. Our Opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Basis* for Opinion*

These consolidated and combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated and combined financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated and combined statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated and combined financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated and combined financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated and combined financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
