The decline in enclosed regional centres revenue is due to the enclosed mall tenant failures in 2020 and subsequent restructured rent arrangements provided to certain retail tenants that are struggling as part of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Included in other revenue and lease cancellation fees in the nine-month period ending September 30, 2021, is $2.3 million received from Lowe's at Pine Centre in order to facilitate the Save-on-Foods development.

Under IFRS, the Trust is required to establish an expected credit loss which would include considerations for failed or restructuring tenants as well as doubtful account provisions for future expected credit losses on accounts receivable arrears, including rent abatements or rent forgiveness. The following is an analysis of the allowance for doubtful accounts for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2021.

Property operating expenses include costs related to interior and exterior maintenance, insurance and utilities.

Property operating expenses (excluding bad debt expense) for the three months ended September 30, 2021, increased 6.8% to $14.8 million from $13.8 million for the same period in 2020. This increase is primarily due to more normalized operating expenses in 2021 as compared to 2020 when sharp reductions occurred due to the pandemic.

Net operating income for the three months ended September 30, 2021, increased 6.7% as compared to 2020. This increase was the result of a decrease in bad debt expense in 2021 as compared to 2020.

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2021, decreased 5.4% to $13.3 million from $14.1 million for the same period in 2020. This decline is primarily due to the decline in the Trust's weighted average interest rate on mortgages to 3.6% from 3.9% in the third quarter of 2020, in addition to a reduction in overall debt.

The Trust records its income producing properties at fair value in accordance with IFRS. The financial results include fair value adjustments that are more significant than previous years. These adjustments are a result of the Trust's regular quarterly IFRS fair value process and include the impact of COVID-19 on the enclosed regional centres from the challenging retail landscape. In accordance with this policy, the following fair value adjustments by segment have been recorded:

Reported net income for three months ended September 30, 2021, was $6.7 million as compared to loss of $88.1 million in 2020. This change is due to the fair value losses recorded in 2020, as described above.

Net Operating Income, Funds from Operations
This press release and accompanying financial information make reference to net operating income and funds from operations on a total and per unit basis.
