      REIT reports 4.5%  growth in Q3-2026 Same Property NOI and completes approximately 107,000 square feet of new and renewed leases.

      /NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION IN THE U.S. OR OVER U.S. NEWSWIRES/

      TORONTO, Nov. 10, 2026 /CNW/ -- True North Commercial Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX: TNT.UN) (the "REIT") today announced its financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2026 ("Q3-2026") and nine months ended September 30, 2026 ("YTD-2026").

      "We are pleased with the REIT's strong Same Property NOI growth and continued leasing momentum," said Daniel Drimmer, the REIT's Chief Executive Officer. "During the quarter, we completed approximately 107,000 square feet of leasing activity, including 66,000 square feet of government renewals, demonstrating the strength of our tenant relationships and our continued focus on maintaining a stable, high quality portfolio. Management remains focused on building on this momentum through continued tenant engagement, disciplined capital allocation and initiatives that support long-term value creation for our unitholders."

      Q3-2026 highlights

      • The REIT's core portfolio occupancy([1]) at the end of Q3-2026 was approximately 93% with a weighted average lease term ("WALT")(1) of 4.1 years.
      • The REIT contractually leased or renewed approximately 107,000 square feet with a WALT of 6.9 years achieving positive leasing spreads on renewals of 7.3% for Q3-2026.
      • Revenue decreased from $30,586 in three months ended September 30, 2025 ("Q3-2025") to $29,653 in Q3-2026 representing a 3.1% decrease primarily due to a reduction in the REIT's Ottawa market occupancy in Q3-2026 relative to same period last year as a result of a strategically executed early lease termination completed in three months ended December 31, 2025 ("Q4-2025") with the property being classified as held for sale since that time. Excluding the impact of the Ottawa property noted above, Q3-2026 revenue would have increased by 1.0% relative to Q3-2025 as a result of strong leasing activity in 2025 and YTD-2026 as well as the impact of contractual rent increases.
      • Q3-2026 same property net operating income ("Same Property NOI")(1) excluding an asset held for sale increased by approximately 4.5% compared to the same period in 2025 with the increase primarily attributable to strong leasing activity throughout the portfolio. Excluding the impact of termination income and free rent in both periods, Same Property NOI in Q3-2026 would have increased by approximately 6.0%. The REIT continues to focus on leasing activity and continues to maintain above market occupancy levels across its portfolio.
      • Q3-2026 net income and comprehensive income of $2,331 improved by $7,544 or 144.7% compared to same period in 2025, primarily due to lower fair value loss on investment properties during Q3-2026 relative to Q3-2025.
      • The REIT's Q3-2026 funds from operations ("FFO")(1) and adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO")(1)  increased by $317 or 3.9% and $205 or 2.6%, respectively when compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to increase in Same Property NOI, lower financing costs resulting from lower outstanding debt as well as the impact of dispositions in late 2025 of primarily vacant buildings which had a negative impact on FFO and AFFO during Q3-2025.
      • FFO basic and diluted per trust units ("Unit")(1) increased from $0.56 in Q3-2025 to $0.58 in Q3-2026 and AFFO basic and diluted per Unit(1) increased from $0.54 in Q3-2025 to $0.55 in Q3-2026, respectively, due to the reasons outlined above for the changes in FFO and AFFO.

      _______________________________

      1  This is a non-IFRS financial measure, refer to "Non-IFRS measures". Represents occupancy, excluding assets held for sale and WALT.

      YTD highlights

      • The REIT contractually leased and renewed approximately 285,900 square feet with a WALT of 7.3 years and a 5.5% increase over expiring base rents.
      • Revenue decreased from $89,788 in nine months ended September 30, 2025 ("YTD-2025") to $87,333 in YTD-2026 representing a 2.7% decrease primarily attributable to the same reasons noted above for Q3-2026 revenue. Excluding the impact of the Ottawa property noted above, YTD-2026 revenue would have increased by 1.1% relative to YTD-2025 as a result of the same reasons noted above for Q3-2026.
      • YTD-2026 Same Property NOI excluding an asset held for sale increased by 1.2% compared to the same period in 2025 due to the same reasons noted above for Q3-2026 Same Property NOI. Excluding the impact of termination income and free rent in both periods, Same Property NOI in YTD-2026 would have increased by approximately 4.0%. The REIT continues to focus on leasing activity and continues to maintain above market occupancy levels across its portfolio.
      • YTD-2026 net loss and comprehensive loss of $230 improved by $16,347 or 98.6% compared to same period in 2025, primarily due to the same reasons noted above for Q3-2026 net income and comprehensive income.
      • The REIT's YTD-2026 FFO increased by $464 or 2.0% relative to YTD-2025 due to the same reasons noted above for Q3-2026 FFO. YTD-2026 AFFO decreased by $489 or 2.2% when compared to the same period in 2025 as a result of a reduction in the non-cash straight line rent adjustment being added back to AFFO between the two periods, partially offset by the items noted above for FFO changes between the two periods.
      • FFO basic and diluted per Unit increased from $1.57 and $1.56 in YTD-2025 to $1.61 and $1.59 in YTD-2026 while AFFO basic and diluted per Unit decreased from $1.53 and $1.52 in YTD-2025 to $1.50 and $1.48 in YTD-2026, respectively, due to the reasons outlined above for the changes in FFO and AFFO. Excluding the termination income amounts recorded in YTD-2025, YTD-2026 diluted AFFO would have increased by approximately 3.1% or $0.04 per Unit relative to YTD-2025.
      • On April 23, 2026, the REIT renewed the 2025 normal course issuer bid ("2026 NCIB"), as approved by the TSX. Under the 2026 NCIB, the REIT has the ability to purchase for cancellation up to a maximum of 1,235,415 of its Units, representing 10% of the REIT's public float of 12,354,156 Units as of April 9, 2026 through the facilities of the TSX or through a Canadian alternative trading system and in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements at a price per Unit equal to the market price at the time of acquisition.
      • During YTD-2026, the REIT successfully completed $113,828 of refinancings for debt maturing in 2026 at a weighted average interest rate of 4.83% and weighted average term of 2.90 years. The REIT is finalizing the renewal of the remaining debt maturing in 2026 which includes three mortgages each secured by single assets owned by the REIT totalling $126,000 as well as the REIT's credit facility ("Credit Facility"). The REIT is in final stages of renewing or refinancing these loans, all of which are with lenders that the REIT has strong and longstanding relationships with. The REIT continues to focus on proactively managing its debt maturity profile to strengthen the REIT's financial position.

      Subsequent event

      On October 30, 2026, the REIT entered into an agreement of purchase and sale to dispose of 3699 63rd Avenue NE, Calgary, Alberta totaling 209,400 square feet for a sale price of $57,000, with closing expected on or about December 14, 2026.

      (1) This is presented as at the end of the applicable reporting period, rather than for the quarter.

      (2) Represents same property occupancy excluding assets classified as held for sale as at September 30, 2026. The REIT's occupancy for all assets owned as at the end of each reporting period (including any held for sale asset) was 90% as at the end of Q3-2026 (Q3-2025 - 90%).

      (3) This is a non-IFRS financial measure, refer to "Non-IFRS measures".

      (4) Represents Same Property NOI including assets classified as held for sale during Q3-2026 and Q3-2025. Same Property NOI excluding assets classified as held for sale have been presented separately in this press release.

      Operating results

      Revenue decreased from $30,586 in Q3-2025 to $29,653 in Q3-2026 representing a 3.1% decrease (YTD-2026 - decreased by 2.7%) primarily due to a reduction in the REIT's Ottawa market occupancy in Q3-2026 relative to same period last year as a result of a strategically executed early lease termination completed in Q4-2025 with the property being classified as held for sale since that time. Excluding the impact of the Ottawa property noted above, Q3-2026 revenue would have increased by 1.0% relative to Q3-2025 (YTD-2026 - increased by 1.1% relative to YTD-2025) as a result of strong leasing activity in 2025 and YTD-2026 as well as the impact of contractual rent increases.

      Q3-2026 Same Property NOI excluding an asset held for sale increased by approximately 4.5% (YTD-2026 - 1.2%) compared to the same period in 2025 with the increase primarily attributable to strong leasing activity throughout the portfolio. Excluding the impact of termination income and free rent in both periods, Same Property NOI in Q3-2026 would have increased by approximately 6.0% (YTD-2026 - 4.0%). The REIT continues to focus on leasing activity and continues to maintain above market occupancy levels across its portfolio.

      Q3-2026 net income and comprehensive income of $2,331 improved by $7,544 or 144.7% compared to same period in 2025 (YTD-2026 - loss of $230 improved by $16,347 or 98.6%), primarily due to lower fair value loss on investment properties during Q3-2026 relative to Q3-2025.

      The REIT's Q3-2026 FFO and AFFO increased by $317 or 3.9% (YTD-2026 - $464 or 2.0%) and $205 or 2.6% (YTD-2026 - decreased by $489 or 2.2%), respectively when compared to the same period in 2025 primarily due to increase in Same Property NOI, lower financing costs resulting from lower outstanding debt as well as the impact of dispositions in late 2025 of primarily vacant buildings which had a negative impact on FFO and AFFO during Q3-2025. The decrease of YTD-2026 AFFO relative to YTD-2025 was due to a reduction in the non-cash straight line rent adjustment being added back to AFFO between the two periods, partially offset by the items noted above for FFO changes between the two periods.

      FFO basic and diluted per Unit increased from $0.56 in Q3-2025 to $0.58 in Q3-2026 (YTD-2025 - $1.57 and $1.56 to YTD-2026 - $1.61 and $1.59, respectively) and AFFO basic and diluted per Unit increased from $0.54 in Q3-2025 to $0.56 and $0.55 in Q3-2026 while decreased from $1.53 and $1.52 in YTD-2025 to $1.50 and $1.48 in YTD-2026, respectively, due to the reasons outlined above for the changes in FFO and AFFO. Excluding the termination income amounts recorded in YTD-2025, YTD-2026 diluted AFFO would have increased by approximately 3.1% or $0.04 per Unit relative to YTD-2025.

      (1) Excluding assets held for sale.

      Q3-2026 Same Property NOI excluding an asset held for sale increased by approximately 4.5% (YTD-2026 - 1.2%) compared to the same period in 2025 with the increase primarily attributable to strong leasing activity throughout the portfolio. Excluding the impact of termination income and free rent in both periods, Same Property NOI in Q3-2026 would have increased by approximately 6.0% (YTD-2026 - 4.0%). The REIT continues to focus on leasing activity and continues to maintain above market occupancy levels across its portfolio.

      Occupancy in the Alberta portfolio increased as a result of successful leasing activity, including the execution of 34,000 square foot, ten year lease with rent commencing by the end of 2026. Q3-2026 Alberta Same Property NOI decreased by 2.4% compared to Q3-2025 with the decrease primarily due to the early termination of an existing lease in Q3-2026 to accommodate the new lease entered into during the period described above.

      Q3-2026 British Columbia Same Property NOI decreased by 35.9% primarily due to lower rental revenue resulting from rent incentives provided to a renewing tenant during Q3-2026 which no comparable amounts in Q3-2025.

      Q3-2026 Same Property NOI increased by 2.9% and 2.6% in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, respectively, compared to Q3-2025, primarily due to higher occupancy as well as contractual rent increases.

      Q3-2026 Ontario Same Property NOI increased by 8.2% relative to Q3-2025 primarily attributable to increased occupancy between the two periods as well as contractual rent increases. Q3-2026 included $1,520 of termination income (Q3-2025 - $1,394) and as a result, the Ontario Same Property NOI change between Q3-2026 and Q3-2025 excluding termination income would have been relatively consistent with the figures described above.

      Forward-looking statements

      Certain statements contained in this press release constitute forward-looking information within the meaning of Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking statements are provided for the purposes of assisting the reader in understanding the REIT's financial performance, financial position and cash flows as at and for the periods ended on certain dates and to present information about management's current expectations and plans relating to the future. Readers are cautioned that such statements may not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking information may relate to future results, performance, debt financing, achievements, events, prospects or opportunities for the REIT or the real estate industry and may include statements regarding the financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected costs, capital expenditures, financial results, taxes, distributions, plans, the benefits and renewal of the NCIB, or through other capital programs and objectives of or involving the REIT. In some cases, forward-looking information can be identified by such terms as "may", "might", "will", "could", "should", "would", "expect", "plan", "anticipate", "believe", "intend", "seek", "aim", "estimate", "target", "goal", "project", "predict", "forecast", "potential", "continue", "likely", or the negative thereof or other similar expressions suggesting future outcomes or events.

      Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may be general or specific and which give rise to the possibility that expectations, forecasts, predictions, projections or conclusions will not prove to be accurate, assumptions may not be correct and objectives, strategic goals and priorities may not be achieved. A variety of factors, many of which are beyond the REIT's control, affect the operations, performance and results of the REIT and its business, and could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations of estimated or anticipated events or results. These factors include, but are not limited to: risks and uncertainties related to the Units and trading value of Units; risks related to the REIT and its business; fluctuating interest rates and general economic conditions, including potential higher levels of inflation; the impact of any tariffs and retaliatory tariffs on the economy, the effects of global economic uncertainty and geopolitical instability on financial markets and borrowing costs, credit, market, operational and liquidity risks generally; occupancy levels and defaults, including the failure to fulfill contractual obligations by tenants; lease renewals and rental increases; the ability to re-lease and secure new tenants for vacant space; the timing and ability of the REIT to acquire or sell certain properties; work-from-home flexibility initiatives on the business, operations and financial condition of the REIT and its tenants, as well as on consumer behavior and the economy in general; the ability to enforce leases, perform capital expenditure work, increase rents, raise capital through the issuance of Units or other securities of the REIT; the benefits of any NCIB program, or through other capital programs, the ability of the REIT to continue to pay distributions in future periods; and obtain mortgage financing on the REIT's properties and for potential acquisitions or to refinance debt at maturity on similar terms. The foregoing is not an exhaustive list of factors that may affect the REIT's forward-looking statements. Other risks and uncertainties not presently known to the REIT could also cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed in its forward-looking statements. The reader is cautioned to consider these and other factors, uncertainties and potential events carefully and not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements as there can be no assurance actual results will be consistent with such forward-looking statements.

      Information contained in forward-looking statements is based upon certain material assumptions applied in drawing a conclusion or making a forecast or projection, including management's perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other considerations believed to be appropriate in the circumstances. There can be no assurance regarding: (a) work-from-home initiatives on the REIT's business, operations and performance, including the performance of its Units; (b) the its ability to mitigate any impacts related to fluctuating interest rates, potential higher levels of inflation, the impact of any current or future tariffs and the shift to hybrid working; (c) the factors, risks and uncertainties expressed above in regards to the hybrid work environment on the commercial real estate industry and property occupancy levels; (d) credit, market, operational, and liquidity risks generally; (e) the availability of investment opportunities for growth in Canada and the timing and ability of the REIT to acquire or sell certain properties; (f) repurchasing Units under the NCIB; (g) Starlight Group Property Holdings Inc., or any of its affiliates, continuing as asset manager of the REIT in accordance with its current asset management agreement; (h) the benefits of the NCIB, or through other capital programs; (i) the availability of debt financing for potential acquisitions or refinancing loans at maturity on similar terms; (j) the ability of the REIT to continue to pay distributions in future periods and (k) other risks inherent to the REIT's business and/or factors beyond its control which could have a material adverse effect on the REIT.

      The forward-looking statements made relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made. Except as specifically required by applicable Canadian law, the REIT undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
