TORONTO, June 9, 2022 /CNW/ – Flagship Communities Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX: MHC.U) (OTCQX: FLGMF) (the “REIT”) announced today the introduction of a Canadian dollar listing of its trust units on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”).
Effective June 13, 2022, the trust units will commence trading on the TSX in Canadian dollars under the symbol “MHC.UN”. The trust units will continue to trade in U.S. dollars under the existing symbol “MHC.U”.
The trust units to be traded under the symbol MHC.UN will have the same CUSIP number as the trust units trading under the symbol MHC.U. Accordingly, the number of issued and outstanding trust units will not change. The REIT currently has 14,141,185 trust units outstanding.
The REIT’s distributions will continue to be paid to unitholders in U.S. dollars for both the MHC.U and MHC.UN listings.
“We are pleased to introduce a Canadian dollar listing, which will offer Canadian investors the ability to transact in their domestic currency,” said Kurt Keeney, the REIT’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We expect this new listing to provide more flexibility for investors and facilitate increased trading activity in our trust units over time.”
Unitholders should consult their financial advisors for more information regarding the dual currency listing, including their ability to exchange U.S. dollar denominated trust units for Canadian dollar denominated trust units.
