NexLiving Communities отчиталась о росте NOI на 4,6% и увеличении FFO на 13,3% за первое полугодие 2026 года

TORONTO, Aug. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (TSXV: NXLV) -- NexLiving Communities Inc. ("NexLiving” or the "Company”) announced operating and financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. Stavro Stathonikos, President & CEO commented: "We delivered another operationally strong quarter, with occupancy of 98% and a 140 basis point improvement in NOI margin, which drove 5.0% organic NOI growth and 14% growth in fully diluted FFO per share. This operating performance also contributed to a 7% increase in NAV per share in the first half of the year and allowed us to release meaningful capital from the portfolio. The Company now has $12.6 million of cash on the balance sheet and is well positioned to pursue accretive acquisition opportunities and continue growing the portfolio and cash flow per share in the second half of the year.” Summary of Results: - Net operating income ("NOI”) increased by +4.6% to $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026. - Same property NOI increased +5.0%, driven by a +3.2% increase in revenue, partially offset by a +0.5% rise in expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026. - Funds from operations ("FFO”) increased +13.3% to $1.8 million and fully diluted FFO per share increased +13.6% to $0.06 for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Q2 2026 Operating and Financial Highlights: *Refer to section "Non-IFRS Financial Measures” Occupancy: At the end of the quarter, the Company’s wholly-owned portfolio had an occupancy rate of 98.0%, representing a 120 basis point increase from December 31, 2025 and a 140 basis point increase from March 31, 2026, driven by occupancy gains across all regions of the Company’s portfolio. Fair Value of Investment Properties: The Company’s overall weighted average capitalization rate at quarter end was 5.05%, compared to 5.04% at December 31, 2025. The Company recorded fair value gains on investment properties of $9.5 million for the three month period and $11.0 million for the six month period, reflecting an upward revision to forecasted NOI driven by higher in-place rents across the portfolio, expected insurance savings following a review of the Company’s portfolio insurance program, and lower operating costs at certain Ontario properties that transitioned from external to internal management during the period. Property Sale: Subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into agreements to sell three of the eight duplexes comprising its Rue du Progrès property in Gatineau, Quebec for gross proceeds of approximately $1.6 million. The agreed sale price implies a capitalization rate of approximately 4.25% on the NOI attributable to the three duplexes and implies a 15% premium to the Company’s previous IFRS fair value for the property, without taking into consideration the effect of leverage. Closing is expected to occur on or about September 1, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. The Company intends to discharge the entire property’s $2.0 million mortgage in full on closing and to dispose of the remaining five duplexes over the next 12 months. As part of its ongoing portfolio optimization strategy, the Company continues to evaluate additional non-core assets for potential disposition. NCIB Activity: For the period April 1 to June 30, 2026, the Company purchased and cancelled a total of 125,800 shares pursuant to its NCIB for a total cost of $250,739, representing an average share price of $1.99. Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company purchased and cancelled 61,600 shares for a total cost of $139,715 at an average of $2.27 per share. This brings NCIB activity for the year to 281,700 shares for a total cost of $603,246 representing an average share price of $2.14. Dividend: The Company’s Board of Directors has approved and declared a dividend of $0.01 per common share for the quarter ending September 30, 2026, representing $0.04 per share on an annualized basis. The dividend is payable on September 25, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 4, 2026. About the Company NexLiving Communities Inc.
