CALGARY, Alberta, March 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Northview Residential REIT ("Northview" or the "REIT") (NRR.UN, TSX), today announced financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025.
2025 ANNUAL HIGHLIGHTS
Excluding insurance proceeds, FFO per basic Unit grew 14.9% and the FFO payout ratio improved 830 bps to 56.6% on strong operating performance and significant credit facility interest savings
Total NOI of $164.1 million increased 2.1% over 2024 with strong same door NOI growth across the portfolio, successfully offsetting the loss of NOI from the sale of non-core assets
Same door NOI growth of 4.2% led by multi-residential Western and Atlantic Canada growth of 9.2% and 8.6%, respectively
Surpassed the non-core asset sale target of $100 - $150 million set in 2024 having sold $164 million in non-core assets. Of this, $102.9 million was completed in 2025
In addition to refinancing activities, net proceeds from non-core asset sales reduced the credit facilities, decreasing the balance by $122.7 million and reducing leverage by 240 bps from December 31, 2024
Q4 2025 HIGHLIGHTS
FFO per basic Unit grew 6.7% to $0.48, improving the FFO payout ratio by 360 bps to 57.6%, driven by same door multi-residential NOI growth of 5.6%, with AMR gains across all regions, and 14.2% decrease in interest expense
Completion of non-core asset sale target with the closing of a $40 million sale of a multi-family residential portfolio in Moncton. Non-core asset sale and refinancing net proceeds, led to a significant reduction in credit facilities driving interest expense savings
"Strong same door NOI growth driven by AMR growth across all regions and interest savings from active debt management led Northview to another year of exceptional FFO growth," comments Mr. Todd Cook, President and Chief Executive Officer of Northview.
"Looking forward, Northview expects its unique exposure to secondary markets to partially offset some of the downward pressure on rents and occupancy currently affecting the multi-residential sector resulting from new market supply. Northview's solid financial foundation and diversified portfolio in secondary markets, leaves it well positioned to continue to deliver strong results and deliver long term unitholder value." concluded Mr. Cook.
