Subsequent Events
(1) | Exchangeable Units are required to be classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss under GAAP. They are recorded at their fair value based on the market trading price of the Trust Units, which results in a negative impact to the financial results when the Trust Unit price rises and a positive impact when the Trust Unit price declines. | |
(2) | Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Additional Financial Information section. | |
(3) | Long-term renewal spreads are calculated as the difference between the average rate during the renewal term and the expiring rental rate. |

Quarterly Results

Quarterly and Year-to-Date Results
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, Same-Asset NOI, Cash Basis(2) increased by $3.4 million and $10.1 million, respectively, compared to the same prior year primarily due to increased revenue from higher rental rates on renewals, new leasing, and contractual rent steps mainly in the retail and industrial portfolios. The increase was partially offset by the impact of a bad debt provision reversal in the prior year in the industrial portfolio following the resolution of a tenant dispute. In addition, the increase for the six month period included a property tax incentive recognized in the mixed-use and residential portfolio in the first quarter of 2025.
FFO(2) increased by $6.9 million and $10.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The increase was primarily due to an increase in net operating income and lower general and administrative expenses, partially offset by higher interest expense and lower interest income.
AFFO(2) decreased by $9.7 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the earlier commencement of maintenance capital projects in the current year, partially offset by the increase in FFO(1) as noted above. AFFO is impacted by the seasonality inherent in the timing of executing capital projects.
Outlook
We are focused on capital preservation, delivering stable and growing cash flows and net asset value appreciation. Our high-quality portfolio is primarily leased to necessity-based tenants and logistics providers, who are less sensitive to economic volatility and therefore provide stability to our overall portfolio. We will continue to advance our development program, with a focus on commercial developments, which provides us with the best opportunity to add high-quality real estate to our portfolio at a reasonable cost and drive net asset value appreciation over time.
We are confident that our business model, stable tenant base, strong balance sheet, and disciplined approach to financial management will continue to benefit us. In 2025, Choice Properties is targeting:
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 non-GAAP measures, and provides these measures in this news 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 flows 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. The non-GAAP measures included in this news release are defined and reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure below. Choice Properties believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors in measuring the financial performance and financial condition of the Trust for the reasons outlined below.

The 2025 Second Quarter Report to Unitholders is available in the Investors section of the Trust’s website at www.choicereit.ca, and has been filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
“Choice Properties delivered another solid quarter, reflecting the strength of our portfolio and disciplined financial strategy,” said Rael Diamond, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Trust. “Robust demand for our grocery-anchored retail and well-located industrial assets supported our performance, and we advanced our strategic priorities through $427 million in transactions that further strengthened our position.”
2025 Second Quarter Highlights
Subsequent Events
(1) | Exchangeable Units are required to be classified as financial liabilities at fair value through profit and loss under GAAP. They are recorded at their fair value based on the market trading price of the Trust Units, which results in a negative impact to the financial results when the Trust Unit price rises and a positive impact when the Trust Unit price declines. | |
(2) | Refer to Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Additional Financial Information section. | |
(3) | Long-term renewal spreads are calculated as the difference between the average rate during the renewal term and the expiring rental rate. |

Quarterly Results
Choice Properties reported a net loss of $154.2 million for the second quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $513.2 million in the same prior year period. The decrease of $667.5 million was primarily due to changes in certain non-cash adjustments to fair value including:

Quarterly and Year-to-Date Results
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, Same-Asset NOI, Cash Basis(2) increased by $3.4 million and $10.1 million, respectively, compared to the same prior year primarily due to increased revenue from higher rental rates on renewals, new leasing, and contractual rent steps mainly in the retail and industrial portfolios. The increase was partially offset by the impact of a bad debt provision reversal in the prior year in the industrial portfolio following the resolution of a tenant dispute. In addition, the increase for the six month period included a property tax incentive recognized in the mixed-use and residential portfolio in the first quarter of 2025.
FFO(2) increased by $6.9 million and $10.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The increase was primarily due to an increase in net operating income and lower general and administrative expenses, partially offset by higher interest expense and lower interest income.
AFFO(2) decreased by $9.7 million and $2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the earlier commencement of maintenance capital projects in the current year, partially offset by the increase in FFO(1) as noted above. AFFO is impacted by the seasonality inherent in the timing of executing capital projects.
Outlook
We are focused on capital preservation, delivering stable and growing cash flows and net asset value appreciation. Our high-quality portfolio is primarily leased to necessity-based tenants and logistics providers, who are less sensitive to economic volatility and therefore provide stability to our overall portfolio. We will continue to advance our development program, with a focus on commercial developments, which provides us with the best opportunity to add high-quality real estate to our portfolio at a reasonable cost and drive net asset value appreciation over time.
We are confident that our business model, stable tenant base, strong balance sheet, and disciplined approach to financial management will continue to benefit us. In 2025, Choice Properties is targeting:
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 non-GAAP measures, and provides these measures in this news 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 flows 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. The non-GAAP measures included in this news release are defined and reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure below. Choice Properties believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to both management and investors in measuring the financial performance and financial condition of the Trust for the reasons outlined below.
