Canadian Net Real Estate Investment Trust Reports Q2 2024 Results
Canadian Net Real Estate Investment Trust (“Canadian Net” or the “REIT”) (TSX-V: NET.UN) has released its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The REIT also announced distributions for the months of October, November, and December 2024.
CEO Comments on Performance
“Our Funds from Operations (FFO) per unit saw a 4% decrease while managing to absorb the full impact of interest rate increases,” said Kevin Henley, President and CEO. “With lower interest rates, we are already benefiting from reduced costs on our credit facilities and mortgage renewals. Additionally, we sold five gas station properties, one during Q2 and four after the quarter as part of our strategy to optimize our portfolio and reallocate capital to more profitable opportunities. With fresh capital from dispositions, decreasing rates, and opportunities in our highly fragmented niche, Canadian Net is well positioned to resume its growth.”
Financial Highlights for Q2 2024
Canadian Net reported that Funds from Operations (FFO) decreased slightly to $3.2 million, or $0.154 per unit compared to $3.3 million, or $0.161 per unit for the same period a year ago.
Rental income rose to $6.6 million in Q2 2024, representing a 1.7% increase from the previous year. Net Operating Income (NOI) for this quarter was $4.8 million, a decrease of 1.4% primarily due to property dispositions.
The REIT reported a net loss attributable to unitholders of $8.9 million in Q2 2024, compared to net income of $6.0 million in Q2 2023.
Half-Year Financial Results
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, FFO decreased to $6.3 million, or $0.306 per unit compared to $6.5 million, or $0.318 per unit for the same period in 2023.
Rental income for the six-month period was $13.1 million, a 1.8% increase year-over-year. NOI was reported at $9.6 million, down 1.1% driven by similar factors as outlined previously.
