TORONTO, Feb. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SmartCentres Real Estate Investment Trust (“SmartCentres”, the “Trust” or the “REIT”) (TSX: SRU.UN) is pleased to report its financial and operating results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.
“Walmart is a very strong anchor tenant in good times, and an even stronger one in tough times. Hence, customer traffic to our Walmart-anchored shopping centre portfolio continues to gain momentum which, in turn, is generating steadily increasing levels of leasing activity that began earlier in 2022.” said Mitchell Goldhar, Executive Chairman and CEO of SmartCentres.
“We anticipate this trend will continue into 2023 and that it will have a positive impact on both our occupancy and earnings levels. We are pleased with the noticeable increase in leasing activity in the fourth quarter and the associated improvement in cash collections.”
“We are particularly proud of our progress on the eleven mixed-used development initiatives that are currently under construction. These projects have expected completion dates in 2023 and 2024, upon which they are expected to begin contributing FFO(1). The development initiatives span multiple asset classes, including condos, rental apartments, seniors’ apartments, townhouses, self-storage, industrial, and retirement residences. As at December 31, 2022, the total cumulative amount of capital deployed on these projects was $755.2 million ($304.1 million at the Trust’s share), with approximately $487.8 million remaining until completion ($234.9 million at the Trust’s share),” noted Mr. Goldhar.
“Among these developments are significant projects at our flagship Vaughan Metropolitan Centre. These include two 45-storey and 50-storey condominium towers at Transit City nearing completion after 36 months. These units are sold out and the final stages of construction are rapidly nearing the finish line, on time and on budget. Closings are expected to commence in March 2023. In addition, The Millway, a 458-unit, 36-storey rental apartment tower, is also proceeding on time and on budget with initial occupancy and rent commencement expected to begin later this month. The first phase of our Artwalk condominium project is also sold out and construction is expected to commence in the second half of 2023.”
“We are also pleased to note that, as promised, we published our inaugural ESG report during the fourth quarter of 2022. Our business remains strong and well-positioned for growth in the coming years. Nevertheless, with changing economic conditions, we plan on applying prudent discipline when assessing development and other initiatives. Our focus remains on the long term, including the development of mixed-use projects on our strategically located real estate, which we are confident will extract deeply embedded value for many years to come,” added Mr. Goldhar.

- Initial occupancy in the two purpose-built residential rental towers (238 units) in Mascouche, Quebec began in July 2022, with the final floor opened in November. More than 147 units have been leased and current lease-up activity is in line with initial expectations.
- All of the five developed and operating self-storage facilities (Toronto (Leaside), Vaughan NW, Brampton, Oshawa South and Scarborough East) have been very well-received by their local communities, with current occupancy levels ahead of expectations. A sixth facility, Aurora, opened in December 2022.
- Three self-storage facilities in Whitby, Markham and Brampton (Kingspoint) are currently under construction, with Brampton (Kingspoint) expected to be completed in early 2023.

Operational Highlights
For the three months ended December 31, 2022, net income and comprehensive income (as noted in the table above) decreased by $551.8 million as compared to the same period in 2021. This decrease was primarily attributed to the following:
- $568.7 million decrease in fair value adjustments on revaluation of investment properties, including adjustments relating to assets held for sale, primarily due to increase in fair value of certain properties under development in Q4 2021 as a result of changes in the market and the progress made on planning entitlements (see details in the “Investment Property” section in the Trust’s MD&A); and
- $7.2 million increase in interest expense (see further details in the “Interest Income and Interest Expense” subsection in the Trust’s MD&A);
Partially offset by the following:
- $10.9 million increase in fair value adjustment on financial instruments primarily due to fluctuations in the Trust’s Unit price;
- $4.1 million increase in interest income mainly due to higher interest rates;
- $3.9 million increase in NOI (see further details in the “Net Operating Income” subsection in the Trust’s MD&A);
- $2.8 million decrease in acquisition-related costs related to the SmartVMC West acquisition in 2021; and
- $1.4 million decrease in general and administrative expenses (net) (see further details in the “General and Administrative Expense” section in the Trust’s MD&A).
For the year ended December 31, 2022, net income and comprehensive income (as noted in the table above) decreased by $351.7 million as compared to the same period in 2021. This decrease was primarily attributed to the following:
- $476.8 million decrease in fair value adjustments on revaluation of investment properties primarily due to increase in fair value of certain properties under development in Q4 2021 as a result of changes in the market and the progress made on planning entitlements (see details in the “Investment Property” section in the Trust’s MD&A);
- $6.5 million increase in interest expense (see further details in the “Interest Income and Interest Expense” section in the Trust’s MD&A); and
- $2.8 million increase in supplemental costs and in general and administrative expenses (net) (see further details in the “General and Administrative Expense” section in the Trust’s MD&A);
Partially offset by the following:
- $125.5 million increase in fair value adjustment on financial instruments primarily due to fluctuations in the Trust’s Unit price and increase in fair value adjustments pertaining to interest rate swap agreements due to fluctuation in the interest rate (see further details in the “Debt” subsection in the Trust’s MD&A);
- $6.1 million increase in interest income mainly due to higher interest rates; and
- $2.5 million decrease in acquisition-related costs related to the SmartVMC West acquisition in 2021.

(1) Fair value adjustment on revaluation of investment properties is described in “Investment Properties” in the Trust’s MD&A.
(2) Fair value adjustment on financial instruments comprises the following financial instruments: units classified as liabilities, Earnout options, deferred unit plan (“DUP”), equity incentive plan (“EIP”), long term incentive plan (“LTIP”), TRS, interest rate swap agreement(s), and loans receivable and Earnout options recorded in the same period in 2021. The significant assumptions made in determining the fair value and fair value adjustments for these financial instruments are more thoroughly described in the Trust’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. For details, please see discussion in “Results of Operations” in the Trust’s MD&A.
(3) Salaries and related costs attributed to leasing activities of $1.5 million were incurred in the three months ended December 31, 2022 (three months ended December 31, 2021 – $1.1 million) and were eligible to be added back to FFO based on the definition of FFO, in the REALpac White Paper published in January 2022, which provided for an adjustment to incremental leasing expenses for the cost of salaried staff. This adjustment to FFO results in more comparability between Canadian publicly traded real estate entities that expensed their internal leasing departments and those that capitalized external leasing expenses.
(4) Indirect interest is not capitalized to properties under development and residential development inventory of equity accounted investments under IFRS but is a permitted adjustment under REALpac’s definition of FFO. The amount is based on the total cost incurred with respect to the development portion of equity accounted investments multiplied by the Trust’s weighted average cost of debt.
(5) Represents a non-GAAP measure. The Trust’s method of calculating non-GAAP measures may differ from other reporting issuers’ methods and, accordingly, may not be comparable. For additional information, please see “Non-GAAP Measures” in this Press Release.
(6) Represents adjustments relating to $1.9 million of reversal of costs associated with COVID-19 vaccination centres (three months ended December 31, 2021 – $0.7 million of costs associated with COVID-19 vaccination centres).

(1) Fair value adjustment on revaluation of investment properties is described in “Investment Properties” in the Trust’s MD&A.
(2) Fair value adjustment on financial instruments comprises the following financial instruments: units classified as liabilities, Earnout options, DUP, EIP, LTIP, TRS, interest rate swap agreement(s), and loans receivable and Earnout options recorded in the same period in 2021. The significant assumptions made in determining the fair value and fair value adjustments for these financial instruments are more thoroughly described in the Trust’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. For details, please see discussion in “Results of Operations” in the Trust’s MD&A.
(3) Salaries and related costs attributed to leasing activities of $7.5 million were incurred in the year ended December 31, 2022 (year ended December 31, 2021 – $5.2 million) and were eligible to be added back to FFO based on the definition of FFO, in the REALpac White Paper published in January 2022, which provided for an adjustment to incremental leasing expenses for the cost of salaried staff. This adjustment to FFO results in more comparability between Canadian publicly traded real estate entities that expensed their internal leasing departments and those that capitalized external leasing expenses.
(4) Indirect interest is not capitalized to properties under development and residential development inventory of equity accounted investments under IFRS but is a permitted adjustment under REALpac’s definition of FFO. The amount is based on the total cost incurred with respect to the development portion of equity accounted investments multiplied by the Trust’s weighted average cost of debt.
(5) Represents a non-GAAP measure. The Trust’s method of calculating non-GAAP measures may differ from other reporting issuers’ methods and, accordingly, may not be comparable. For additional information, please see “Non-GAAP Measures” in this Press Release.
(6) Represents adjustments relating to $0.7 million of costs associated with COVID-19 vaccination centres (year ended December 31, 2021 – $0.9 million of compensation costs relating to previous CEO and $2.3 million of costs associated with COVID-19 vaccination centres).
(7) N/R – Not representative.

Same Properties NOI
NOI (a non-GAAP financial measure) from continuing operations represents: i) rentals from investment properties and other revenues less property operating costs and other expenses, and ii) net profit from condominium sales. Disclosing the NOI contribution from each of same properties, acquisitions, dispositions, Earnouts and Development activities highlights the impact each component has on aggregate NOI. Straight-line rent, lease terminations and other adjustments, and amortization of tenant incentives have been excluded from Same Properties NOI, as have NOI from acquisitions, dispositions, Earnouts and Development activities, and ECL. This has been done in order to more directly highlight the impact of changes in occupancy, rent uplift and productivity.

About SmartCentres
SmartCentres Real Estate Investment Trust is one of Canada’s largest fully integrated REITs, with a best-in-class portfolio featuring 185 strategically located properties in communities across the country. SmartCentres has approximately $11.7 billion in assets and owns 34.8 million square feet of income producing value-oriented retail and first-class office space with 98.0% occupancy, on 3,500 acres of owned land across Canada.
SmartCentres continues to focus on enhancing the lives of Canadians by planning and developing complete, connected, mixed-use communities on its existing retail properties. The publicly announced $14.9 billion intensification program ($10.0 billion at SmartCentres' share) represents the REIT’s current major development focus on which construction is expected to commence within the next five years. This intensification program consists of rental apartments, condos, seniors’ residences and hotels, to be developed under the SmartLiving banner, and retail, office, and storage facilities, to be developed under the SmartCentres banner.
SmartCentres' intensification program is expected to produce an additional 56.1 million square feet (41.2 million square feet at SmartCentres’ share) of space, 27.2 million square feet (18.5 million square feet at SmartCentres’ share) of which has or will commence construction within the next five years. From shopping centres to city centres, SmartCentres is uniquely positioned to reshape the Canadian urban and urban-suburban landscape.
Included in this intensification program is the Trust’s share of SmartVMC which, when completed, is expected to include approximately 20.0 million square feet of mixed-use space in Vaughan, Ontario. Final closings of the first three phases of Transit City Condominiums began ahead of budget and ahead of schedule in August 2020 and all 1,741 units, in addition to the 22 townhomes that complete these phases, have now closed. The fourth and fifth sold-out phases representing 1,026 units are currently under construction and are expected to close in the first half of 2023.

These risks and others are more fully discussed under the heading “Risks and Uncertainties” and elsewhere in SmartCentres’ most recent Management’s Discussion and Analysis, as well as under the heading “Risk Factors” in SmartCentres’ most recent annual information form.
