Slate Grocery REIT has announced that its board of trustees has approved a monthly distribution for July 2026. The distribution amount is $0.072 per unit, which equates to an annualized rate of $0.864.

The distribution is scheduled for payment on August 17, 2026, to unitholders of record as of the close of business on July 31, 2026. The REIT offers multiple unit classes. Holders of U, A, and I class units have the option to receive their distribution in U.S. dollars or the Canadian dollar equivalent, with specific details to be arranged through their brokerage firm.

Slate Grocery REIT is a real estate investment trust focused on U.S. community grocery-anchored real estate. It owns and operates commercial properties, primarily anchored by supermarkets, in key metropolitan markets across the United States. This type of property, serving essential community needs, is considered to provide stable cash flow.

The company's latest operational disclosures show a resilient portfolio. For the full year 2025, the portfolio occupancy rate was 94.4%. Renewal lease rates were 14.9% higher than expiring rents, and new lease rates were nearly 35% above the portfolio's average. The current average rent per square foot is $12.86, compared to a market average of $24.34. This significant gap suggests potential for future rental growth. The REIT's debt structure is predominantly fixed-rate, with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 5%.

It is noteworthy that the company's board has established a special committee to evaluate strategic alternatives, including a potential sale. This review introduces a degree of uncertainty regarding the company's future. Concurrently, the REIT continues to be viewed by the market as an attractive income investment due to its history of stable monthly distributions.
