Marketwired Canada
Fronsac real estate investment trust (TSX VENTURE:GAZ.UN) ("Fronsac REIT" or
"Fronsac") today released its unaudited consolidated financial statements for
its second quarter ended June 30, 2013.
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, Fronsac reported funds from operations
("FFO") of 234 191$, an increase of 49% over the same period in the prior year
(157 216$ in 2012). FFO per unit was 0.72 cents for the six months ended June
30, 2013 (0.70 cents per unit diluted) compared to 0.77 cents per unit for the
six months ended June 30, 2012 (0.77 cents per unit diluted). The acquisition of
the St-Hubert property in June 2012 and the three acquisitions completed during
the six months ended June 30, 2013, i.e. one in Val-David and two in
Trois-Rivieres, mainly explain the strong growth in FFO.
Fronsac reported FFO of 105 245$ for the three months ended June 30, 2013, an
increase of 31% over the same period in the prior year. FFO per unit was 0.32
cents for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 (0.32 cents per unit diluted) compared
to 0.39 cents per unit for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 (0.39 cents per unit
diluted). The issuance of 12 102 083 units in the Q4 2012 and 110 000 units in
the Q2 2013 mainly explain the decrease in FFO per unit.
Fronsac recorded a net profit attributable to unitholders for the six months
ended June 30, 2013 of 598 831$ or 1.80 cents per unit compared to a net loss of
(9 210$) or (0.00 cents) per unit for the comparative quarter of 2012. Profit
was mainly impacted by the same factors affecting FFO as well as non-cash gains
of 395 807$ (2012: nil) and 67 580$ (2012: nil) related to the increase in value
of the investment properties recorded in accounts "Investment properties" and
"Investment in joint-ventures" respectively. These gains are explained by a
decrease of 25 basis points in the global capitalization rates provided by an
external firm expert in valuation.
The highlights for the period of three and six months ending June 30th, 2013 and
June 30th, 2012 and a summary of AFFO/FFO are presented in the following tables
