Granite Announces 2025 First Quarter Results
Granite Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX:GRT, NYSE:GRP) ("Granite" or the "Trust") announced today its condensed consolidated combined results for the three month period ended March 31, 2025.
FIRST QUARTER 2025 HIGHLIGHTS
Highlights for the three month period ended March 31, 2025 are set out below:
Financial:
- Granite's net operating income ("NOI") was $125.7 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $114.5 million in the prior year period, an increase of $11.2 million primarily as a result of contractual rent adjustments and consumer price index based increases, renewal and re-leasing activity, and the lease commencement of four completed development and expansion projects in Canada, the United States and Netherlands during 2024;
- Same property NOI - cash basis(4) increased by 4.7% for the first quarter of 2025, excluding the impact of foreign exchange;
- Funds from operations ("FFO")(1) was $91.0 million ($1.46 per unit) in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $82.4 million ($1.30 per unit) in the first quarter of 2024;
- Adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO")(2) was $88.4 million ($1.41 per unit) in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $77.9 million ($1.22 per unit) in the first quarter of 2024;
- During the three month period ended March 31, 2025, the Canadian dollar weakened against the Euro and the US dollar relative to the prior year period. The impact of foreign exchange on FFO and AFFO for the three month period ended March 31, 2025, relative to the same period in 2024, was favourable by $0.07 per unit for each measure;
- AFFO payout ratio(3) was 60% for the first quarter of 2025 compared to 67% in the first quarter of 2024;
- Occupancy as at March 31, 2025 was 94.8%, with committed occupancy as at May 7, 2025 also at 94.8%, a decrease of 10 basis points and 20 basis points relative to December 31, 2024 and February 26, 2025, respectively;
- Granite recognized $48.2 million in net fair value losses on investment properties in the first quarter of 2025 mostly related to higher discount rates across select properties in all regions. The value of investment properties was increased by unrealized foreign exchange gains of $83.5 million in the first quarter of 2025 primarily resulting from the relative weakening of the Canadian dollar against the Euro, partially offset by the slight strengthening of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar as at March 31, 2025; and
- Granite's net income attributable to unitholders in the first quarter of 2025 was $43.9 million in comparison to $89.1 million in the prior year period primarily due to an unfavourable change in the fair value adjustment on investment properties of $60.9 million, partially offset by an $11.2 million increase in net operating income as noted above, and a $4.1 million decrease in income tax expense.
Operations:
- During the first quarter of 2025, Granite achieved average rental rate spreads of 10% over expiring rents representing approximately 736,000 square feet of new leases and renewals taking effect in the quarter; and
- In April 2025, a subsidiary of Do it Best Corp. assumed True Value's lease for Granite's property at 12 Tradeport Road in Hanover Township, Pennsylvania for the remaining term of 15.9 years.
Financing:
- During the first quarter of 2025, Granite repurchased 930,969 units under the normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") at an average unit cost of $68.30 for total consideration of $63.6 million, excluding commissions and taxes on net repurchases of units;
- Subsequent to March 31, 2025, Granite repurchased 497,300 units under the NCIB at an average unit cost of $63.42 for total consideration of $31.5 million, excluding commissions and taxes on net repurchases of units; and
- On March 28, 2025, Granite amended its existing unsecured revolving credit facility agreement to extend the maturity date by one year for a new five-year term to March 31, 2030.

A more detailed discussion of Granite's condensed consolidated combined financial results for the three month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 is contained in Granite's Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Position ("MD&A") and the unaudited condensed consolidated combined financial statements for those periods and the notes thereto, which are available through the internet on the Canadian Securities Administrators' System for Electronic Data Analysis and Retrieval Plus ("SEDAR+") and can be accessed at www.sedarplus.ca and on the United States Securities and Exchange Commission's (the "SEC") Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System ("EDGAR"), which can be accessed at www.sec.gov.
2025 OUTLOOK
Granite is maintaining its 2025 guidance as presented on February 26, 2025. Granite's current outlook does not significantly change assumptions relating to new leasing of vacant space which continues to be projected primarily later in the second half of 2025 and also reflects year to date financing and NCIB activity. Granite's FFO per unit forecast represents an approximate 5% to 8% increase over 2024 and the AFFO per unit forecast represents a change of -1% to 2% over 2024 driven by higher maintenance capital expenditures relative to the prior year.
The high and low ranges of Granite's forecast are driven by foreign currency exchange rate assumptions for the nine-month forecast period between April and December, 2025, which have been modified relative to guidance provided on February 26, 2025, reflecting a recent weakening of the Canadian dollar relative to the Euro offset by the strengthening of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar.
The table below outlines Granite's current forecast for the year ending December 31, 2025:

Granite's 2025 forecast assumes no acquisitions and dispositions, and assumes no favourable reversals of tax provisions relating to prior years which cannot be determined at this time. Non-GAAP performance measures are included in Granite's 2025 forecast above (see "NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES"). See also "FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS".

NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES, RATIOS AND RECONCILIATIONS
Readers are cautioned that certain terms used in this press release such as FFO, AFFO, FFO payout ratio, AFFO payout ratio, same property NOI - cash basis, constant currency same property NOI - cash basis, total debt and net debt, net leverage ratio, and any related per unit amounts used by management to measure, compare and explain the operating results and financial performance of the Trust do not have standardized meanings prescribed under IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS Accounting Standards" or "GAAP") and, therefore, should not be construed as alternatives to net income, cash provided by operating activities or any other measure calculated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Additionally, because these terms do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other publicly traded entities.
(1) |
FFO is a non-GAAP performance measure that is widely used by the real estate industry in evaluating the operating performance of real estate entities. Granite calculates FFO as net income attributable to unitholders excluding fair value gains (losses) on investment properties and financial instruments, gains (losses) on sale of investment properties including the associated current income tax, foreign exchange gains (losses) on certain monetary items not forming part of a net investment in a foreign operation, deferred income taxes, corporate restructuring costs and certain other items, net of non-controlling interests in such items. The Trust's determination of FFO follows the definition prescribed by the Real Property Association of Canada ("REALPAC") guidelines on Funds From Operations & Adjusted Funds From Operations for IFRS Accounting Standards dated January 2022 ("REALPAC Guidelines") except for the exclusion of corporate restructuring costs. Granite considers FFO to be a meaningful supplemental measure that can be used to determine the Trust's ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures and provide distributions to unitholders. FFO is reconciled to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure (see table below). FFO should not be construed as an alternative to net income or cash flow provided by operating activities determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. |
|
(2) |
AFFO is a non-GAAP performance measure that is widely used by the real estate industry in evaluating the recurring economic earnings performance of real estate entities after considering certain costs associated with sustaining such earnings. Granite calculates AFFO as net income attributable to unitholders including all adjustments used to calculate FFO and further adjusts for actual maintenance capital expenditures that are required to sustain Granite's productive capacity, leasing costs such as leasing commissions and tenant allowances incurred and non-cash straight-line rent and tenant incentive amortization, net of non-controlling interests in such items. The Trust's determination of AFFO follows the definition prescribed by the REALPAC Guidelines except for the exclusion of corporate restructuring costs as noted above. Granite considers AFFO to be a meaningful supplemental measure that can be used to determine the Trust's ability to service debt, fund expansion capital expenditures, fund property development and provide distributions to unitholders after considering costs associated with sustaining operating earnings. AFFO is also reconciled to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure (see table below). AFFO should not be construed as an alternative to net income or cash flow provided by operating activities determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. |

The FFO and AFFO payout ratios are calculated as monthly distributions, which exclude special distributions, declared to unitholders divided by FFO and AFFO (non-GAAP performance measures), respectively, in a period. FFO payout ratio and AFFO payout ratio may exclude revenue or expenses incurred during a period that can be a source of variance between periods. The FFO payout ratio and AFFO payout ratio are supplemental measures widely used by investors in evaluating the sustainability of the Trust's monthly distributions to unitholders. |

Same property NOI — cash basis refers to the NOI — cash basis (NOI excluding lease termination and close-out fees, and the non-cash impact from straight-line rent and tenant incentive amortization) for those properties owned by Granite throughout the entire current and prior year periods under comparison. Same property NOI — cash basis excludes properties that were acquired, disposed of, classified as development properties or assets held for sale during the periods under comparison. Granite believes that same property NOI — cash basis is a useful supplementary measure in understanding period-over-period organic changes in NOI — cash basis from the same stock of properties owned. |

The square footage relating to the NOI — cash basis represents GLA of 63.3 million square feet as at March 31, 2025. The square footage relating to the same property NOI — cash basis represents the aforementioned GLA excluding the impact from the acquisitions, dispositions, assets held for sale and developments during the relevant period. |

Total debt is calculated as the sum of all current and non-current debt, the net mark to market fair value of derivatives and lease obligations. Net debt subtracts cash and cash equivalents from total debt. Granite believes that it is useful to include the derivatives and lease obligations for the purposes of monitoring the Trust's debt levels. |
|
(6) |
The net leverage ratio is calculated as net debt (a non-GAAP performance measure defined above) divided by the fair value of investment properties (excluding assets held for sale). The net leverage ratio is a non-GAAP ratio used in evaluating the Trust's degree of financial leverage, borrowing capacity and the relative strength of its balance sheet. |
