TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Tricon Residential Inc. (NYSE: TCN, TSX: TCN) ("Tricon" or the "Company"), an owner and operator of single-family rental homes in the U.S. Sun Belt and multi-family rental apartments in Canada, announced today its consolidated financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

All financial information is presented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.

The Company's operational and financial highlights of the quarter include:

  • Net income from continuing operations decreased by $97.7 million year-over-year from the $178.8 million earned in Q3 2022 (which included $99.9 million of performance fees earned from the sale of Tricon's remaining 20% equity interest in the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio) to $81.1 million in the current period. Correspondingly, basic earnings per share from continuing operations decreased to $0.29 compared to $0.65 per share in Q3 2022; and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations decreased to $0.18 compared to $0.49 per share in Q3 2022;
  • Core funds from operations ("Core FFO") was $42.7 million and Core FFO per share was $0.14 in Q3 2023, a decrease of 7.9% and 6.7% year-over-year, respectively. Net Operating Income ("NOI") growth of 8.6% was offset by higher borrowing costs, the loss of Core FFO from the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio sold in Q4 2022 and lower performance fees;1
  • Same home NOI growth for the single-family rental portfolio in Q3 2023 was 6.0% year-over-year and same home NOI margin was 68.5%. Same home operating metrics remained consistently strong, including occupancy of 97.4%, annualized turnover of 18.8% and blended rent growth of 6.8% (comprised of new lease rent growth of 6.9% and renewal rent growth of 6.7%);1
  • In response to strong resident demand for rental homes across its Sun Belt markets, the Company acquired 410 homes during the quarter at an average price of $310,000 per home (including up-front renovations) for a total acquisition cost of $127 million, of which Tricon's proportionate share was $102 million;
  • Positive rent trends continued into the fourth quarter, with same home rent growth of 6.8% in October 2023, including 6.6% growth on new leases and 6.8% growth on renewals, while same home occupancy was 97.1% and same home turnover was at 19.4%; and
  • Tricon has continued to make progress in its Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) ratings, marking a 7% increase compared to 2022 and a 29% improvement from its inaugural submission in 2021. The ratings improvement underscores Tricon’s commitment to sustainable business practices, environmental stewardship, and focus on resident and employee well-being.

“The operating fundamentals of our single-family rental business remain consistently strong with near-full occupancy, low turnover, and healthy same home NOI growth of 6.0% delivered in the third quarter. Our U.S. residential development business and our newly-launched Canadian multi-family properties are also performing well above our expectations. Underpinning these results is a persistent shortage of housing supply across North America, and a commitment by Tricon to be part of the housing solution,” said Gary Berman, President & CEO of Tricon. “That being said, responding to the strong demand for rental housing and growing our portfolio is challenging in the current capital markets environment. As interest rates have continued to press higher in recent weeks, we have reduced our acquisition pace further, buying 410 homes in Q3 and lowering our target to roughly 250 homes in Q4. These acquisitions are largely being funded by our capital recycling program where we replace older, non-core homes with newer vintage properties. Notwithstanding slower external growth, we are pleased to report that we have substantially completed the investment programs for SFR JV-2 and SFR JV-HD and are gearing up to launch SFR JV-3. We remain encouraged by the performance of our existing portfolio and our cost containment efforts which should enable us to finish the year largely in line with our prior expectations for Core FFO per share.”

For the basis of presentation of the Company’s non-IFRS measures and reconciliations, refer to the “Non-IFRS Measures” section and Appendix A. For definitions of the Company’s non-IFRS measures, refer to Section 6 of Tricon's MD&A.

(2) Core FFO per share and AFFO per share are calculated using the total number of weighted average potential dilutive shares outstanding, including the assumed exchange of preferred units issued by Tricon PIPE LLC, which were 310,497,125 and 310,341,448, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 311,910,445 and 312,023,897, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

Net income from continuing operations in the third quarter of 2023 was $81.1 million compared to $178.8 million in the third quarter of 2022, and included:

  • Fair value gain on rental properties of $73.3 million compared to $107.2 million in the third quarter of 2022, attributable to a moderation in home price appreciation within the single-family rental portfolio. This moderation is attributed to persistently higher mortgage rates and ongoing economic uncertainty which have introduced a level of caution for homebuyers.
  • Revenue from single-family rental properties of $202.6 million compared to $170.8 million in the third quarter of 2022, driven primarily by growth of 5.0% in the single-family rental portfolio to 37,024 homes, a 6.1% year-over-year increase in average effective monthly rent (from $1,755 to $1,862) and a 3.6% increase in total portfolio occupancy to 94.5%.
  • Direct operating expenses of $67.3 million compared to $54.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, primarily reflecting an expansion in the rental portfolio and higher property tax expenses associated with increasing property value assessments, as well as general cost and labor market inflationary pressures.
  • Revenue from strategic capital services (previously reported as Revenue from private funds and advisory services) of $9.0 million compared to $112.5 million in the third quarter of 2022. The comparative period included $99.9 million of performance fees earned from the sale of Tricon's remaining 20% equity interest in the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio in the third quarter of 2022, along with asset management and property management fees earned from the portfolio, which the Company no longer earns following the divestiture.

Net income from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $157.3 million compared to $723.5 million for the period ended September 30, 2022, and included:

  • Fair value gain on rental properties of $208.9 million compared to $802.6 million in the prior year for the same reasons discussed above.
  • Revenue from single-family rental properties of $588.5 million and direct operating expenses of $194.4 million compared to $464.7 million and $150.7 million in the prior year, respectively, which translated to a net operating income ("NOI") increase of $80.2 million, attributable to the continued expansion of the single-family rental portfolio and strong rent growth.
  • Revenue from strategic capital services of $34.8 million compared to $145.3 million in the prior year, primarily attributable to $99.9 million of performance fees earned from the sale of Tricon's remaining 20% equity interest in the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio in the third quarter of 2022. In addition, the current period saw lower performance fees earned from Tricon's legacy for-sale housing projects, which were partially offset by higher Johnson development fees from large commercial land bulk sales in the first quarter of 2023.

Core FFO for the third quarter of 2023 was $42.7 million, a decrease of $3.7 million or 8% compared to $46.4 million in the third quarter of 2022. The change was driven by higher borrowing costs incurred to support the expansion of the SFR portfolio, a loss of NOI and fee income from the disposition of the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio, and lower acquisition fees associated with acquiring fewer SFR homes. These items were partially offset by NOI growth in the SFR business and stronger results from U.S. residential developments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, Core FFO decreased by $13.5 million or 10% to $126.9 million compared to $140.4 million in the prior period, for the reasons noted above, along with lower performance fees.

AFFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $34.1 million and $101.0 million, respectively, a decrease of $1.0 million (3%) and $8.6 million (8%) from the same periods in the prior year. This change in AFFO was driven by the decrease in Core FFO discussed above, partially offset by lower recurring capital expenditures as a result of disciplined cost containment and scoping refinement when turning homes and the absence of recurring capital expenditures from the U.S. multi-family rental portfolio following its sale.

Single-family rental NOI was $77.4 million for the third quarter of 2023, an increase of $6.1 million or 8.6% compared to the same period in 2022. The growth in NOI was primarily attributable to a $10.7 million or 10.7% increase in rental revenues as a result of a 5.9% increase in the average monthly rent ($1,815 in Q3 2023 compared to $1,714 in Q3 2022) and 2.2% portfolio growth (Tricon's proportionate share of rental homes was 21,840 in Q3 2023 compared to 21,372 in Q3 2022), and a 0.5% increase in occupancy (94.5% in Q3 2023 compared to 94.0% in Q3 2022). This favorable growth in rental revenue was partially offset by a $4.9 million or 14.4% increase in direct operating expenses reflecting incremental costs associated with a larger portfolio of homes, higher property taxes from increased assessed property values, elevated property management costs reflecting a tighter labor market, increased homeowners' association (HOA) dues and higher other direct costs associated with smart-home technology and higher utility rates.

Single-family rental same home NOI growth was 6.0% in the third quarter of 2023, compared to the same period last year. This favorable change was driven by a 6.5% increase in revenue from rental properties as a result of a 6.0% higher average monthly rent ($1,758 in Q3 2023 compared to $1,658 in Q3 2022), and an improvement in bad debt (0.9% in Q3 2023 compared to 1.4% in Q3 2022), partially offset by slightly lower occupancy (97.4% in Q3 2023 compared to 97.6% in Q3 2022). Same home operating expense increased by 7.5%, attributable primarily to a 10.5% increase in property taxes, partially offset by lower turnover expense and proactive cost containment in property management, repair and maintenance expenses.

Single-Family Rental Investment Activity

The Company expanded its single-family rental portfolio during the quarter by acquiring 410 homes (299 wholly-owned homes for $90.2 million and 111 homes owned through joint ventures for $36.8 million), bringing its total managed portfolio to 37,478 homes. The homes were purchased at an average cost per home of $310,000, including up-front renovations, for a total acquisition cost of $127 million, of which Tricon's share was approximately $102 million.

During the quarter, Tricon also disposed of 175 homes for a total of $63.0 million (169 wholly-owned homes for $61.3 million and six homes owned through joint ventures for $1.7 million) at an average price of $360,000 per home. Tricon's proportionate share of dispositions was approximately $61.8 million. Tricon expects to continue disposing of non-core homes as a means of recycling capital towards the acquisition of newer homes in its core markets.

Adjacent Residential Businesses Highlights

Quarterly highlights of the Company's adjacent residential businesses include:

  • In the Canadian multi-family business, The Selby's occupancy remained stable at 98.5%, and annualized turnover improved to 30.4% compared to 39.2% during the same period in the prior year. Blended rent growth was 11.2% during the quarter, driven by healthy new-lease and renewal rent growth as the number of leases with pandemic-era rents at the property continue to diminish.
  • In Tricon's Canadian residential development portfolio, The Taylor achieved a stabilized physical occupancy of 98.3% as at September 30, 2023 at an average monthly rent of C$4.63 per square foot. Maple House at Canary Landing welcomed its first residents to the 770-unit mixed-use rental community during the quarter, with 20% of the building already pre-leased, driven by strong market unit demand and an oversubscribed affordable housing lottery.
  • Tricon's investments in U.S. residential developments generated $5.5 million of distributions to the Company in Q3 2023.

Change in Net Assets

Tricon's net assets were $3.9 billion as at September 30, 2023, an increase of $62 million compared to $3.8 billion as at June 30, 2023. Tricon's book value (net assets) per common share outstanding increased by 1% sequentially or 4% year-over-year to $14.30 (C$19.33) as at September 30, 2023.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Tricon's liquidity consists of a $500 million corporate credit facility with approximately $350 million of undrawn capacity as at September 30, 2023. The Company also had approximately $173 million of unrestricted cash on hand, resulting in total liquidity of $523 million.

As at September 30, 2023, Tricon’s pro-rata net debt (excluding exchangeable instruments) was $2.9 billion, reflecting a pro-rata net debt to assets ratio of 36.3%. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, Tricon's pro-rata net debt to Adjusted EBITDAre ratio was 8.2x.2

2023 Guidance Update

The Company updated its guidance for the current fiscal year, including reiterating the midpoint of Core FFO per share guidance and tightening the range of expected same home metrics. The Company also updated its acquisitions guidance to reflect a smaller number of homes to be acquired in 2023 but with a similar equity contribution as previously expected. Subsequent to quarter end, the Company substantially completed the investment programs of SFR JV-2 and SFR JV-HD with lower leverage parameters, and continues to acquire homes at a moderated pace as part of its capital recycling program.

Although the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation are based upon what management currently believes to be reasonable assumptions (including in particular the revenue growth, expense growth and portfolio growth assumptions set out herein (which themselves are based on, respectively: assumed ancillary revenue growth and continuing favorable market rent growth; increased internalization of maintenance activity and increased management efficiencies accompanying portfolio growth; and the availability of SFR homes meeting the Company’s acquisition objectives), there can be no assurance that actual results, performance or achievements will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this document are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

Non-IFRS Measures

The Company has included herein certain non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios, including, but not limited to: "proportionate" metrics, net operating income ("NOI"), NOI margin, funds from operations ("FFO"), core funds from operations ("Core FFO"), adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO"), Core FFO per share, AFFO per share, Adjusted EBITDAre as well as certain key indicators of the performance of our businesses which are supplementary financial measures. These measures are commonly used by entities in the real estate industry as useful metrics for measuring performance. We utilize these measures in managing our business, including performance measurement and capital allocation. In addition, certain of these measures are used in measuring compliance with our debt covenants. We believe that providing these performance measures on a supplemental basis is helpful to investors and shareholders in assessing the overall performance of the Company’s business. However, these measures are not recognized under and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS as issued by the IASB, and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other publicly traded entities. These measures should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for related financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. Because non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios and supplementary financial measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed under IFRS, securities regulations require that such measures be clearly defined, identified, and reconciled to their nearest IFRS measure. The calculation and reconciliation of the non-IFRS financial measures and the requisite disclosure for non-IFRS ratios used herein are provided in Appendix A below. The definitions of the Company’s non-IFRS measures are provided in the "Glossary and Defined Terms" section as well as Section 6 of Tricon's MD&A.

The non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios and supplementary financial measures presented herein should not be construed as alternatives to net income (loss) or cash flow from the Company’s activities, determined in accordance with IFRS, as indicators of Tricon’s financial performance. Tricon’s method of calculating these measures may differ from other issuers’ methods and, accordingly, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other publicly-traded entities.

Glossary and Defined Terms

The non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios and KPI supplementary financial measures discussed throughout this press release for each of the Company’s business segments are calculated based on Tricon's proportionate share of each portfolio or business and are defined and discussed below and in Section 6 of the MD&A, which definitions and discussion are incorporated herein by reference. These measures are commonly used by entities in the real estate industry as useful metrics for measuring performance; however, they do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other publicly-traded entities. These measures should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with IFRS. See Appendix A for a reconciliation to IFRS financial measures where applicable.

Adjusted EBITDAre is a metric that management believes to be helpful in evaluating the Company’s operating performance across and within the real estate industry. Further, management considers it to be a more accurate reflection of the Company’s leverage ratio, especially as it adjusts for and negates non-recurring and non-cash items. The Company’s definition of EBITDAre reflects all adjustments that are specified by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). In addition to the adjustments prescribed by NAREIT, Tricon excludes fair value gains that arise as a result of reporting under IFRS.

EBITDAre represents net income from continuing operations, excluding the impact of interest expense, income tax expense, amortization and depreciation expense, fair value changes on rental properties, fair value changes on derivative financial instruments and adjustments to reflect the entity’s share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated entities. Adjusted EBITDAre is a normalized figure and is defined as EBITDAre before stock-based compensation, unrealized and realized foreign exchange gains and losses, transaction costs and other non-recurring items, and reflects only Tricon’s share of results from consolidated entities (by removing non-controlling interests’ and limited partners’ share of reconciling items).

The Company also discloses its Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre ratio to assist investors in accounting for the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures and equity-accounted investments, in both debt and Adjusted EBITDAre, by calculating pro-rata leverage on a look-through basis (excluding debt directly related to the Canadian development portfolio as well as warehouse and subscription facilities related to acquisitions of vacant single-family homes, which do not fully contribute to Adjusted EBITDAre).

Cost to maintain is defined as the annualized repairs and maintenance expense, turnover expense net of applicable resident recoveries and recurring capital expenditures per home in service. The metric provides insight into the costs needed to maintain a property's current condition and is indicative of a portfolio's operational efficiency.

Pro-rata net assets represents the Company's proportionate share of total consolidated assets as well as assets of non-consolidated entities on a look-through basis (which are shown as equity-accounted investments on its proportionate balance sheet), less its cash and restricted cash.

Pro-rata net debt represents the Company's total current and long-term debt per its consolidated financial statements, less its cash and restricted cash (excluding debt directly related to the Canadian development portfolio as well as warehouse and subscription facilities related to acquisitions of vacant single-family homes, which do not fully contribute to Adjusted EBITDAre).
