New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - September 24, 2020) - Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC notifies investors that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Colony Credit Real Estate, Inc.("Colony Credit" or the "Company") (NYSE: CLNC) and certain of its officers, on behalf of shareholders who purchased or otherwise acquired the common stock of Colony Credit Real Estate, Inc. f/k/a/ Colony NorthStar Credit Real Estate, Inc. ("Colony Credit" or the "Company") pursuant and/or traceable to the Company's Registration Statement and Prospectus (collectively, the "Registration Statement") issued in connection with the combination of Colony NorthStar, Inc. and NorthStar Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. and NorthStar Real Estate Income II, Inc. on or about February 1, 2018 (the "Merger").

This class action seeks to recover damages against Defendants for alleged violations of the federal securities laws under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933.
The Complaint alleges the Registration Statement was materially false and misleading and omitted to state: (1) that the credit quality of certain of Colony Credit's assets had deteriorated prior to the Merger and were continuing to deteriorate at the time of the Merger; (2) that certain of the Company's loans, including four loans of approximately $261 million related to a New York hotel, were substantially impaired, there was insufficient collateral to secure the loans, and it was unlikely that the loans would be repaid; (3) that, as a result, the valuation attributed to certain of the Company's assets was overstated; (4) that, certain of the assets contributed as part of the Merger were of substantially lower value than reflected in the Company's financial statements and the Registration Statement; (5) that, as a result, the Company's financial condition, including its book value, was materially overstated; and (6) that, as a result of the foregoing, the positive statements in the Registration Statement about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis
