(1) Effective January 1, 2024, Granite amended its definition of Funds From
Operations (FFO) to exclude corporate restructuring costs associated
with the uncoupling of the Trust's stapled unit structure (refer to
"NON-IFRS PERFORMANCE MEASURES" in the MD&A). See also "SIGNIFICANT
MATTERS - STAPLED UNIT STRUCTURE" in the MD&A. Granite views these
restructuring costs as non-recurring, as they are solely related to
this specific transaction and do not reflect normal operating
activities.
(3) The FFO and AFFO payout ratios are calculated as monthly distributions, which exclude special distributions, declared to unitholders divided by FFO and AFFO (non-IFRS performance measures), respectively, in a period. FFO payout ratio and AFFO payout ratio may exclude revenue or expenses incurred during a period that can be a source of variance between periods. The FFO payout ratio and AFFO payout ratio are supplemental measures widely used by investors in evaluating the sustainability of the Trust's monthly distributions to stapled unitholders.

(4) Same property NOI -- cash basis refers to the NOI -- cash basis (NOI excluding lease termination and close-out fees, and the non-cash impact from straight-line rent and tenant incentive amortization) for those properties owned by Granite throughout the entire current and prior year periods under comparison. Same property NOI -- cash basis excludes properties that were acquired, disposed of, classified as development properties or assets held for sale during the periods under comparison. Granite believes that same property NOI -- cash basis is a useful supplementary measure in understanding period-over-period organic changes in NOI -- cash basis from the same stock of properties owned.

(1) The square footage relating to the NOI -- cash basis represents GLA of
63.3 million square feet as at September 30, 2024. The square footage
relating to the same property NOI -- cash basis represents the
aforementioned GLA excluding the impact from the acquisitions,
dispositions, assets held for sale and developments during the relevant
period.
(2) Constant currency same property NOI - cash basis is calculated by
converting the comparative same property NOI - cash basis at current
period average foreign exchange rates.
(5) Total debt is calculated as the sum of all current and non-current debt, the net mark to market fair value of derivatives and lease obligations as per the consolidated financial statements. Net debt subtracts cash and cash equivalents from total debt. Granite believes that it is useful to include the derivatives and lease obligations for the purposes of monitoring the Trust's debt levels.
(6) The net leverage ratio is calculated as net debt (a non-IFRS performance measure defined above) divided by the fair value of investment properties (excluding assets held for sale). The net leverage ratio is a non-IFRS ratio used in evaluating the Trust's degree of financial leverage, borrowing capacity and the relative strength of its balance sheet.

(7) Overall capitalization rate is calculated as stabilized net operating income (property revenue less property expenses) divided by the fair value of the income-producing property.
(8) Annualized revenue for each period presented is calculated as the contractual base rent for the month subsequent to the quarterly reporting period multiplied by 12 months. Annualized revenue excludes revenue from properties classified as assets held for sale.
