Artis REIT 2.85

Artis REIT’s primary objective is to maximize total returns to our Unitholders.
Returns include a stable, reliable, and tax efficient monthly cash distribution as well as long-term appreciation in the value of Artis REIT’s units.

Artis REIT’s management employs several key strategies to meet our primary objective.

We build stability into our cash flows through a strategy of diversification. Our commercial properties are well diversified across the industrial, retail, and office asset classes. We are also geographically diversified with properties owned across western Canada, as well as Ontario, and in select markets in the United States.

We build growth into our cash flows through the efficient sourcing and deployment of capital into high-quality and accretive acquisition opportunities in our target markets, or into high-yield intensification or (re)development opportunities that exist within our property portfolio.

W e build value through the active management of our portfolio, leveraging off the experience and expertise of our management team. We focus on maximizing property value and cash flows over the long term, creating additional value through the selective disposition of assets at premium prices, and reinvesting and repositioning the portfolio on an on-going basis in higher growth markets.
