Mr. Cook continued, “With the sale of the Moncton portfolio completed in October, we have completed $164 million in non-core asset sales ahead of schedule. This has contributed to over 200 bps in leverage reduction and reduced our floating rate exposure to 13.0%, further strengthening our balance sheet and enhancing our capacity to deliver long-term value creation to Unitholders.”

Article content

“Our commercial portfolio has seen positive momentum. With over 60,000 sq. ft. of signed leases and accepted offers to lease, we expect that occupancy could improve by almost 500 bps by mid-2026. This positive momentum in our commercial portfolio combined with our continued solid multi-residential performance positions us well to continue to deliver strong financial results,” concluded Mr. Cook.

RATIO

Article content

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, FFO per basic Unit increased by 8.3% to $0.52 from $0.48 compared to 2024. The growth in FFO was attributable to interest savings in financing costs and same door NOI growth, partially offset by one-time costs related to dispositions. This contributed to the strong year-to-date growth of 14.7% FFO per basic Unit, excluding insurance proceeds. Strong FFO improved the FFO payout ratio to 53.0% for the third quarter of 2025 compared to 56.9% in the comparative period.

Article content

During the third quarter, total NOI increased by $1.4 million, or 3.3%, reflecting strong same door NOI growth that outpaced the reduction in NOI from assets sold in 2024 and 2025. Same door NOI grew 6.5% year-over-year in the multi-residential portfolio with gains in all regions. This was driven by 4.3% multi-residential same door revenue growth, as AMR increased 4.8% on stable occupancy of 95.8%. Western and Atlantic Canada regions contributed the largest to AMR gains with 5.1% and 7.6%, respectively.

ACHIEVED
INTEREST
EXPENSE SAVINGS

Article content

Northview reduced its interest expense compared to the prior year driven by the $3.5 million decrease in credit facility interest expense. These credit facility interest savings are from the significant reduction in the outstanding credit facilities balance, a 95 bps credit spread reduction from the October 24, 2024 credit facilities amendment, and an overall favourable interest rate environment.

Article content

During the third quarter of 2025, Northview made $18.9 million in net repayments from net proceeds on mortgage refinancing and non-core asset sales, lowering the outstanding balance to $225.9 million.

TARGET

Article content

As part of Northview’s focus on strengthening its balance sheet, Northview targeted approximately $100 to 150 million in non-core assets for sale by the end of 2026, with net proceeds to be used for debt repayment.

Article content

During the third quarter of 2025, Northview completed $49.5 million of dispositions, including a portfolio in St. John’s, NL comprising of 340 multi-residential suites and 3,100 sq. ft. of commercial space. On October 29, 2025, Northview completed the sale of a 307 multi-residential suite portfolio in Moncton, NB for $40.0 million.

Article content

Article content

These sales complete Northview’s targeted non-core asset sales reaching $164 million in gross sale proceeds with pricing collectively above Northview’s IFRS investment property values. Northview exceeded the targeted sales ahead of the expected timeline generating debt repayments which will have contributed to over 200 bps leverage reduction.

NON-GAAP
AND
OTHER
FINANCIAL
MEASURES

Article content

Certain measures in this earnings release do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and may, therefore, be considered non-GAAP financial measures, non- GAAP ratios, or other measures and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These measures are provided to enhance the readers’ overall understanding of Northview’s current financial condition and financial performance. They are included to provide investors and management with an alternative method for assessing our operating results in a manner that is focused on the performance of our ongoing operations and to provide a more consistent basis for comparison between periods. These measures include widely accepted measures of performance for Canadian real estate investment trusts; however, the measures are not defined by GAAP. In addition, these measures are subject to the interpretation of definitions by the preparers of financial statements and may not be applied consistently between real estate entities. These measures include:

Article content

  • Non-GAAP Financial Measures: Adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) and funds from operations (“FFO”)
  • Non-GAAP
    Ratios: AFFO payout ratio; AFFO per Unit, FFO payout ratio; and FFO per Unit
  • Measurements Excluding Insurance Proceeds: AFFO, AFFO payout ratio, AFFO per Unit, FFO, FFO payout ratio, and FFO per Unit.
  • Capital
    Management
    Measures: Distributions declared to Unitholders and debt to gross book value
  • Other Key Performance Indicators: AMR; NOI margin; occupancy; same door revenue, expenses, net operating income, occupancy, and AMR; weighted average number of Units – basic; and weighted average number of Units – diluted

Article content

For information on the most directly comparable GAAP measures, composition of the measures, a description of how Northview uses these measures, and an explanation of how these measures provide useful information to investors, refer to the “Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures” section of Northview’s Management Discussion and Analysis as at and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, available on Northview’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com, which is incorporated by reference into this news release.
