Strong Growth and Resilience: BTB's Portfolio delivers, again, solid performance in Q2 2023.
MONTRÉAL, Aug. 7, 2023 /CNW/ - BTB Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX: BTB.UN) ("BTB" or the "REIT") releases today its financial results for the second quarter of 2023, compared to the same period of 2022 and announces the following highlights and information.
- Rental revenue: Stood at $31.7 million for the current quarter, which represents an increase of 9.4% compared to the same quarter of 2022. For the cumulative six-month period, the rental revenue totalled $64.6 million which represents an increase of 11.3% compared to the same period in 2022.
- Net Operating Income (NOI): Stood at $19.0 million for the current quarter, which represents an increase of 8.2% compared to the same quarter of 2022. For the cumulative six-month period, the NOI totalled $38.0 million which represents an increase of 12.5% compared to the same period in 2022.
- Net operating and comprehensive income: Totalled $10.8 million for the quarter ($19.6 million for the 2023 cumulative six-month period) compared to $18.2 million for the same period in 2022 ($24.7 million for the 2022 cumulative six-month period), representing a decrease of $7.4 million. The decrease is caused by a reduction of non-cash gain in net adjustment to fair value of derivative financial instruments of $8.6 million and an increase in the financial expenses of $1.2 million. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBIDTA) (1) for the quarter increased by $1.6 million compared to the same period last year.
- Same-property NOI (1): Increased by 1.7% compared to the same quarter last year. The NOI of the industrial segment decreased by 3.9% due a planned tenant departure (which space was leased to a new tenant during the quarter at a higher rental rate than that of the previous tenant) compared to the same quarter last year and the NOI for the necessity-based retail segment increased by 15.9% compared to the same quarter last year due to strong leasing efforts. For the cumulative six-month period, the same-property NOI increased by 0.9%.
- Recurring FFO payout ratio (1): Was 63.8% for the quarter compared to 65.5% for the same period in 2022. For the cumulative six-month period, the recurring FFO payout ratio was 63.8% compared to 67.8% for the same period in 2022.
- Recurring FFO (1): Was 11.8¢ per unit for the quarter compared to 11.4¢ per unit for the same period in 2022, representing an increase of 3.1%. For the cumulative six-month period, the recurring FFO was 23.5¢ per unit which represents an increase of 6.1% compared to the same period in 2022.
- Recurring AFFO payout ratio (1): Was 69.0% for the quarter compared to 68.3% for the same period in 2022. For the cumulative six-month period, the recurring AFFO payout ratio was 70.5% compared to 72.3% for the same period in 2022.
- Recurring AFFO (1): Was 10.9¢ per unit for the quarter compared to 11.0¢ per unit for the same period in 2022, representing a decrease of 0.5%. For the cumulative six-month period, the recurring AFFO was 21.3¢ per unit which represent an increase of 2.4% compared to the same period in 2022.
- Leasing Activity: The Trust completed a total of 208,338 square feet of lease renewals and 125,223 square feet of new leases for the quarter. The occupancy rate stood at 94.1%, representing a 0.9 % increase compared to the prior quarter, and a 0.3% increase compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in the average rent renewal rate for the quarter was 4.9%.
- Acquisition: On May 1, 2023, the Trust acquired a fully leased industrial property located at 8810, 48 Avenue NW, in Edmonton, Alberta (83,292 square feet). As part of the transaction the Trust satisfied a portion of the purchase price through the issuance to the vendor of 550,000 Class B LP units at a per unit price of $4.50 and the balance of the purchase price was funded by the credit facility. The revenue from this acquisition contributed to the second quarter financial results.
- Debt metrics: BTB ended the quarter with a total debt ratio (1) of 58.9%, recording an increase of 0.4% compared to December 31, 2022. The Trust ended the quarter with a mortgage debt ratio (1) of 52.9%, a decrease of 1.3% compared to December 31, 2022.
- Liquidity position: BTB held $3.7 million of cash at the end of the quarter. During the quarter the Trust, as provided in the initial agreement, increased the available amount under its credit facilities (2) (2) by $10.0 million leaving $23.7 million available on its credit facilities with a remaining option to increase by an additional $10.0 million.
- Base Shelf Prospectus: On June 12,2023, since its initial short form base shelf prospectus was nearing maturity, the Trust filed a final base shelf prospectus, generally under the same terms and conditions as the previous base shelf, valid for a 25-month period for the total amount of $200.0 million.

"One of the main indicators of BTB's strong performance is the persistent leasing activity during the last quarters. The occupancy rate rose to 94.1% which represents a 0.9% increase compared to Q1 2023. Our leasing team successfully maintained high occupancy levels across our diverse portfolio, showcasing the REIT's ability to attract and retain quality clients. In this perspective, our aptitude to foster long-term relationships with clients (208,338 square feet of leases renewed) and attract new businesses to our properties (125,223 square feet of new leases) should bolstered investor confidence."

Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Certain terms used in this press release are listed and defined in the table hereafter, including any per unit information if applicable, are not measures recognized by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. Such measures may differ from similar computations as reported by similar entities and, accordingly, may not be comparable to similar measures. Explanations on how these non-IFRS financial measures provide useful information to investors and additional purposes, if any, for which the Trust uses these non-IFRS financial measures, are also included in the table hereafter.
Securities regulations require that non-IFRS financial measures be clearly defined and that they not be assigned greater weight than IFRS measures. The referred non-IFRS financial measures, which are reconciled to the most similar IFRS measure in the table thereafter if applicable, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and these measures cannot be compared to similar measures used by other issuers.
NON-IFRS MEASURES |
DEFINITION |
SAME-PROPERTY NOI |
Same-property NOI is a non-IFRS financial measure defined as net operating income ("NOI") for the properties that the Trust owned and operated for the entire duration of both the current year and the previous year. The most directly comparable IFRS measure to same-property NOI is Operating Income.
|
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (FFO) & RECURRING FFO |
FFO is a non-IFRS financial measure used by most Canadian real estate investment trusts based on a standardized definition established by REALPAC in its January 2022 White Paper ("White Paper"). FFO is defined as net income and comprehensive income less certain adjustments, on a proportionate basis, including (i) fair value adjustments on investment properties, class B LP units and derivative financial instruments; (ii) amortization of lease incentives; (iii) incremental leasing costs; and (iv) distribution on class B LP units. FFO is reconciled to net income and comprehensive income, which is the most directly comparable IFRS measure. FFO is also reconciled with the cash flows from operating activities, which is an IFRS measure. Recurring FFO is also a non-IFRS financial measure that starts with FFO and removes the impact of non-recurring items such as transaction cost on acquisitions and dispositions of investment properties and early repayment fees.
The Trust believes FFO and recurring FFO are key measures of operating performance and allow the investors to compare its historical performance.
|
ADJUSTED FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (AFFO) & RECURRING AFFO |
AFFO is a non-IFRS financial measure used by most Canadian real estate investment trusts based on a standardized definition established by REALPAC in its January 2022 White Paper ("White Paper"). AFFO is defined as FFO less: (i) straight-line rental revenue adjustment; (ii) accretion of effective interest; (iii) amortization of other property and equipment; (iv) unit-based compensation expenses; (v) provision for non-recoverable capital expenditures; and (vi) provision for unrecovered rental fees (related to regular leasing expenditures). AFFO is reconciled to net income and comprehensive income, which is the most directly comparable IFRS measure. AFFO is also reconciled with the cash flows from operating activities, which is an IFRS measure. Recurring AFFO is also a non-IFRS financial measure that starts with AFFO and removes the impact of non-recurring items such as transaction costs on acquisitions and dispositions of investment properties and early repayment fees.
The Trust considers AFFO and recurring AFFO to be useful measures of recurring economic earnings and relevant in understanding its ability to service its debt, fund capital expenditures, and provide distributions to unitholders. |
FFO & AFFO PAYOUT RATIOS
AND
RECURRING FFO & RECURRING AFFO PAYOUT RATIOS
|
FFO and AFFO payout ratios and recurring FFO and recurring AFFO payout ratios are non-IFRS financial measures. These payout ratios are calculated by dividing the actual distributions per unit by FFO, AFFO, and recurring FFO and recurring AFFO per unit in each period.
The Trust considers these metrics a useful way to evaluate its distribution paying capacity.
|
TOTAL DEBT RATIO
|
The total debt ratio is a non-IFRS financial measure of the Trust's financial leverage, which is calculated by taking the total long-term debt less cash divided by the total gross value of the assets of the Trust less cash.
The Trust considers this metric useful as it indicates its ability to meet its debt obligations and its capacity for future additional acquisitions. |
PROVISION FOR NON-RECOVERABLE CAPITAL EXPENDITURES |
In calculating AFFO, the Trust deducts a provision for non-recoverable capital expenditures to consider capital expenditures invested to maintain the condition of its properties and to preserve rental revenue. The provision for non-recoverable capital expenditures is calculated based on 2% of rental revenues. This provision is based on management's assessment of industry practices and its investment forecasts for the coming years. |
PROVISION FOR UNRECOVERED RENTAL FEES |
The Trust also deducts a provision for unrecovered rental fees in the amount of approximately 25¢ per sq. ft. on an annualized basis. Even though quarterly rental fee disbursements vary significantly from one quarter to another, management considers that this provision fairly presents, in the long term, the average disbursements not recovered directly in establishing the rent that the Trust will undertake. These disbursements consist of inducements paid or granted when leases are signed that are generally amortized over the term of the lease and are subject to an equivalent increase in rent per square foot, and of brokerage commissions and leasing payroll expenses. |
TOTAL LONG-TERM DEBT LESS CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS |
This is a non-IFRS financial measure. Long-term debt less cash and cash equivalent is a non-IFRS financial measure, calculated as the total of (i) fixed-rate mortgage loans payable; (ii) floating rate mortgage loans payable; (iii) Series G debenture capital amount; (iv) Series F debenture capital adjusted with non-derivative component fewer conversion options exercised by holders; and (v) credit facilities, less cash, and cash equivalents. The most directly comparable IFRS measure to net debt is debt. |
TOTAL GROSS VALUE OF THE ASSETS OF THE TRUST LESS CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENT |
This is a non-IFRS financial measure. Gross value of the assets of the Trust less cash and cash equivalent ("GVALC") is a non-IFRS financial measure defined as the Trust's total assets adding the cumulated amortization property and equipment and removing the cash and cash equivalent. The most directly comparable IFRS measure to GVALC is total assets.
|
ADJUSTED EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST, TAXES, DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION ("ADJUSTED EBITDA") |
Adjusted EBITDA income is a non-IFRS financial measure that starts with net income and comprehensive income and removes the effects of certain adjustments, on a proportionate basis, including: (i) interest expense; (ii) taxes; (iii) depreciation of property and equipment; (iv) amortization of intangible assets; (v) fair value adjustments (including investment properties, financial instruments, Class B LP units and unit price remeasurement for unit-based compensation); (vi) transaction costs on acquisitions and dispositions of investment properties and early repayment fees; and (vii) straight-line rental revenue adjustment.
The most directly comparable IFRS measure to Adjusted EBITDA is net income and comprehensive income. The Trust believes Adjusted EBITDA is a useful metric to determine its ability to service its debt, finance capital expenditures and provide distributions to its Unitholders. |
