ERES Announces January 2025 Cash Distribution Plans
ERES Announces January 2025 Cash Distribution
European Residential Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX: ERE.UN, “ERES”) is excited to inform its investors about the cash distribution declared for January 2025. This distribution amounts to €0.005 for each Unit and Class B LP Unit. This equates to an annualized rate of €0.06 per Unit, showcasing ERES's commitment to returning value to its Unitholders.
Details of the Upcoming Distribution
The distribution is set to benefit those holding Units and Class B LP Units, also known as Unitholders. The record date for this distribution is January 31, 2025, with the payment being processed on February 18, 2025. Notably, the distribution will be made in Canadian dollars based on the current exchange rate. For those registered Unitholders who prefer, there’s an option to receive payments in Euros instead. If an election isn’t made, the default will be the Canadian dollar payment.
Changes in Distribution Reinvestment Plan
An important update for Unitholders is the termination of the Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) that will come into effect on January 16, 2025. As detailed in a previous announcement, this means that the monthly distributions made after January 16, 2025, will not be eligible for reinvestment in additional Units through the DRIP. The last distribution eligible for this plan, relating to December 2024, will be on January 15, 2025.
Understanding ERES’s Distribution Strategy
The last monthly cash distribution reflected C$0.01474 per Unit and Class B LP Unit. Furthermore, ERES also declared a special cash distribution of C$1.49426 per Unit, which was not eligible for the DRIP. This demonstrates ERES’s ongoing strategy to reward its investors while maintaining transparency about the available options.
