The Trust reports its financial results in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). However, this earnings release also uses specified financial measures that are not defined by IFRS which follow the disclosure requirements established by National Instrument 52-112 Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures Disclosure. Specified financial measures are categorized as non-GAAP financial measures, non-GAAP ratios, and other financial measures. Additional details on specified financial measures including supplementary financial measures, capital management measures and total segment measures are set out in the Trust’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the period ended March 31, 2022 and available on the Trust’s profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.
The following Non-GAAP financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other reporting issuers in similar or different industries. These measures should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as substitutes for related financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Trust’s management uses these measures to aid in assessing the Trust’s underlying core performance and provides these additional measures so that investors may do the same. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures, which supplement the IFRS measures, provide readers with a more comprehensive understanding of management’s perspective on the Trust’s operating results and performance.
FFO is a non-GAAP measure widely used as a real estate industry standard that supplements net income and evaluates operating performance but is not indicative of funds available to meet the Trust’s cash requirements. FFO can assist with comparisons of the operating performance of the Trust’s real estate between periods and relative to other real estate entities. FFO is computed by the Trust in accordance with the current definition of the Real Property Association of Canada (“REALpac”) and is defined as net income adjusted for fair value changes on real estate properties and gains/(losses) on the sale of real estate properties. The Trust considers FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing its comparative operating and financial performance.
AFFO is a non-GAAP measure that was developed to be a recurring economic earnings measure for real estate entities. The Trust presents AFFO in accordance with the current definition of the REALpac. The Trust defines AFFO as FFO adjusted for straight-line rent and productive capacity maintenance expenditures (“PCME”). AFFO should not be interpreted as an indicator of cash generated from operating activities as it does not consider changes in working capital.
The Trust’s Q1 2022 Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis will be made available on the Trust’s website at www.morguard.com and have been filed with SEDAR at www.sedar.com
