(1) A non-GAAP measure, includes amounts from directly held properties and equity accounted investments.

Quarterly results

  • Net Loss for the second quarter of 2018 was $321.1 million compared to net income of $41.5 million in the second quarter of 2017. Adjustments to the fair value of exchangeable units and investment properties were the primary cause of the variance between these comparative periods. The remaining change resulted from an increase of net property income associated with the Acquisition of Canadian Real Estate Investment Trust ("CREIT"), partially offset by transaction costs which included the accelerated amortization of debt premium and an increase to net interest expense and other financing charges (including distributions on Exchangeable Units).

  • FFO for the second quarter of 2018 was $156.6 million or $0.272 per unit diluted, compared with $108.4 million or $0.262 per unit diluted in the second quarter of 2017. The 2018 results are inclusive of non-recurring lease surrender income of $10.2 million earned in the current quarter and $4.2 million of incremental interest expense from debt financing, offset by $1.1 million of interest earned on amounts placed in security deposits in advance of closing the CREIT acquisition. Excluding these items, FFO for the quarter would have been $149.5 million or $0.260 per unit diluted.

Year-To-Date Results

  • Net Income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $305.9 million, an increase of $240.2 million when compared to net income for the same period last year. The increase was primarily due to favourable adjustments to the fair value of exchangeable units and investment properties, partially offset by transaction costs associated with the acquisition of CREIT, which included the accelerated amortization of debt premium and an increase to net interest expense and other financing charges (including distributions on Exchangeable Units).

  • FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $262.3 million or $0.529 per unit diluted, compared with $217.2 million or $0.526 per unit diluted in the prior year. The 2018 results are inclusive of non-recurring lease surrender income of $10.2 million earned in the current period and $5.6 million of incremental interest expense from debt financing, and the call premium of $2.9 million for the early repayment of Series A senior unsecured debentures. Excluding these items, FFO for the year-to-date period would have been $260.6 million or $0.526 per unit diluted.

Management Discussion and Analysis and Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes

For more information, visit Choice Properties' website at www.choicereit.ca and Choice Properties' issuer profile at www.sedar.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Additional Financial Information

In addition to using performance measures determined in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS" or "GAAP"), Choice Properties also measures its performance using certain additional non-GAAP measures, and provides these measures in this press release so that investors may do the same. Such measures and related per-unit amounts are not defined by IFRS and therefore should not be construed as alternatives to net income or cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with IFRS. Furthermore, the supplemental measures used by Management may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other real estate investment trusts or enterprises. These terms, which include the proportionate share basis of accounting, net operating income ("NOI"), funds from operations ("FFO"), adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO") and adjusted cash flow from operations ("ACFO"), are defined in Section 16, "Non-GAAP Financial Measures", of the Choice Properties MD&A for the period ended June 30, 2018 and are reconciled to the most comparable IFRS measure.

Choice Properties Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and MD&A for the period ended June 30, 2018 are available on Choice Properties' website at www.choicereit.ca. Readers are directed to these documents for financial details and a fulsome discussion on Choice Properties' results.

Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-looking Statements

This news release contains forward-looking statements relating to Choice Properties' operations and the environment in which the Trust operates, which are based on management's expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that are difficult to control or predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Readers, therefore, should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, a forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made. Management undertakes no obligation to publicly update any such statement, to reflect new information or the occurrence of future events or circumstances, except as required by law.
