NATURE AND DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST

Effective January 3, 2013, Granite Real Estate Inc. (“Granite Co.”) completed its conversion from a corporate structure to a stapled unit real estate investment trust (“REIT”) structure. All of the common shares of Granite Co. were exchanged, on a one-for-one basis, for stapled units ("stapled units"), each of which consisted of one unit of Granite Real Estate Investment Trust ("Granite REIT") and one common share of Granite REIT Inc. ("Granite GP"). Granite REIT is an unincorporated, open-ended, limited purpose trust established under and governed by the laws of the province of Ontario and created pursuant to a Declaration of Trust dated September 28, 2012 as subsequently amended and restated on October 1, 2024. Granite GP was incorporated on September 28, 2012 under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). Granite REIT, Granite GP and their subsidiaries carried on the business previously conducted by Granite Co.

On April 15, 2024, Granite REIT and Granite GP announced the proposal to simplify its capital structure by replacing its stapled unit structure with a conventional REIT trust unit structure (the "Arrangement"). Prior to the Arrangement, the unitholders of Granite REIT and Granite GP ("stapled unitholders") held stapled units. In the Arrangement (i) the two components of each stapled unit were uncoupled, (ii) each common share of Granite GP was automatically exchanged for a fractional Granite REIT unit and (iii) the Granite REIT units were consolidated back to the number of stapled units outstanding before the exchange occurred. On June 6, 2024, the Arrangement was approved by stapled unitholders at the Joint Annual General and Special Meetings of Stapled Unitholders. On June 10, 2024, Granite REIT and Granite GP received a final order from the Supreme Court of British Columbia approving the plan of Arrangement.

On October 1, 2024, the Arrangement was completed. As a result of and immediately following the Arrangement, each unitholder of Granite REIT ("unitholder") now holds a number of Granite REIT units ("units") equal to the number of stapled units held prior to the completion of the Arrangement, and Granite GP became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Granite REIT. The stapled units were delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") and the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"), and the units trade on the TSX and the NYSE under the same ticker symbols "GRT.UN" and "GRP.U", respectively. Granite REIT and its subsidiaries (together "Granite" or the "Trust") are carrying on the business previously conducted by Granite REIT and Granite GP.

The principal office of Granite REIT is 77 King Street West, Suite 4010, P.O. Box 159, Toronto-Dominion Centre, Toronto, Ontario, M5K 1H1, Canada.

The Trust is a Canadian-based REIT engaged in the acquisition, development, ownership and management of logistics, warehouse and industrial properties in North America and Europe.

MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION

(a)Basis of Presentation and Statement of Compliance

The condensed consolidated combined financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2025 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). These interim condensed consolidated combined financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB (“IFRS Accounting Standards” or "GAAP"), and should be read in conjunction with the Trust’s annual financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

These condensed consolidated combined financial statements were approved by the Board of Trustees of Granite REIT on May 7, 2025.

(b) Consolidated Combined Financial Statements and Basis of Consolidation

Prior to the completion of the Arrangement described in note 1, the Trust did not have a single parent; however, each unit of Granite REIT and each share of Granite GP traded as a single stapled unit and accordingly, Granite REIT and Granite GP had identical ownership. Subsidiaries were consolidated by Granite GP or Granite REIT from the date of acquisition, being the date on which control was obtained. Subsidiaries continued to be consolidated until the date that such control ceased. Control existed when Granite GP or Granite REIT had power, exposure or rights to variable returns and the ability to use their power over the entity to affect the amount of returns it generated.

The condensed consolidated combined financial statements included the combined results of Granite REIT and Granite GP for reporting periods ended on or prior to September 30, 2024, the last day before Granite GP became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Granite REIT. For the periods prior to October 1, 2024, references to "units" should be read as "stapled units" and "unitholders" should be read as "stapled unitholders".

Following the completion of the Arrangement, Granite GP became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Granite REIT. The condensed consolidated combined financial statements include the assets, liabilities and results of Granite REIT and its subsidiaries. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date Granite REIT obtained control and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. Control exists when Granite REIT has power, exposure or rights to variable returns and the ability to use their power over the entity to affect the amount of returns it generates.

All intercompany balances, income and expenses and unrealized gains and losses resulting from intercompany transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

(c) Accounting Policies

The condensed consolidated combined financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as were used for the Trust’s annual consolidated combined financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2024.

(d) Future Accounting Policy Changes

IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, to achieve comparability of the financial performance of similar entities. The standard, which replaces IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, impacts the presentation of primary financial statements and notes, including the statement of profit or loss where entities will be required to present separate categories of income and expense for operating, investing, and financing activities with prescribed subtotals for each new category. The standard also requires aggregation and disaggregation of information, and disclosure of management-defined performance measures in the notes to the financial statements. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 and is to be applied retrospectively, with early adoption permitted.

The Trust is currently assessing the impact of IFRS 18 on its consolidated financial statements.

The Trust determines the fair value of an income-producing property based upon, among other things, rental income from current leases and assumptions about rental income from future leases reflecting market conditions and lease renewals at the applicable balance sheet
Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 73



dates, less future cash outflows in respect of such leases. Fair values were primarily determined by using a 10-year cash flow and subsequent reversionary value discounted back to present value. The fair values of properties under development are measured using a discounted cash flow model, net of costs to complete, as of the balance sheet date. The valuation metrics utilized to derive the Trust’s investment property valuations are determined by management. The Trust does not value its investment properties based on models prepared by external appraisers but uses such external appraisals as data points, alongside other external market information for management to arrive at its own conclusions on values. Management receives valuation assumptions from external appraisers such as discount rates, terminal capitalization rates and market rental rates, however, the Trust also considers its knowledge of historical renewal experiences with its tenants, its understanding of certain specialized aspects of the Trust’s portfolio and tenant profile, and its knowledge of the current condition of the properties to determine proprietary market leasing assumptions, including lease renewal probabilities, renewal rents and capital expenditures. There has been no change in the valuation methodology during the period.

Included in investment properties as at March 31, 2025 is $83.2 million (December 31, 2024 — $81.3 million) of net straight-line rent receivables arising from the recognition of rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Details about contractual obligations to purchase, construct and develop properties can be found in the commitments and contingencies note (note 14).

Valuations are most sensitive to changes in discount rates and terminal capitalization rates. The key valuation metrics for income-producing properties by country are set out below:

(a)Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

On March 28, 2025, the Trust amended its existing unsecured revolving credit facility (the ‘‘Credit Facility’’) to extend the maturity date by one year to March 31, 2030, with a limit of $1.0 billion. Draws on the Credit Facility are available by way of Canadian dollar, US dollar or Euro denominated loans or Canadian dollar or US dollar denominated letters of credit. The Credit Facility provides the Trust the ability to increase the amount of the commitment by an additional aggregate principal amount of up to $450.0 million with the consent of the participating lenders. While the Credit Facility matures on March 31, 2030, the Trust has the option to extend the maturity date by one year to March 31, 2031, subject to the agreement of lenders in respect of a minimum of 66 2/3% of the aggregate amount committed under the Credit Facility. As at March 31, 2025, the Trust had an outstanding balance of $10.0 million (December 31, 2024 — nil) on the Credit Facility and $2.4 million (December 31, 2024 — $2.8 million) in letters of credit issued against the Credit Facility.

2026 Debentures

On February 4, 2025, Granite REIT Holdings Limited Partnership ("Granite LP"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Granite, issued at par $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of Series 10 senior unsecured debentures bearing interest at daily compounded Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (“CORRA”) plus 0.77% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears, and maturing on December 11, 2026 (the "2026 Debentures"). Deferred financing costs of $0.9 million were incurred in connection with the issuance of the 2026 Debentures and are recorded as a reduction against the carrying value.

The 2026 Debentures are redeemable, in whole or in part from time to time, at Granite LP’s option on any interest payment date, at a price equal to accrued and unpaid interest plus the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Debentures to be redeemed; and (b) the CORRA Yield Price. The CORRA Yield Price is based on the sum of the discounted principal and interest payments remaining to maturity under the portion of the 2026 Debentures to be redeemed, discounted on the basis of the CORRA Yield (CORRA plus 0%).

December 2026 Term Loan

On February 4, 2025, Granite LP repaid in full, without penalty, the outstanding $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of the December 2026 Term Loan, which had a maturity date of December 11, 2026.

(1)On September 8, 2023, Granite LP entered into a float to fixed interest rate swap (the "September 2026 Interest Rate Swap”) to exchange the floating EURIBOR-based interest payments of the September 2026 Term Loan for fixed interest payments resulting in an all-in fixed interest rate of 4.333%.
(2)On December 10, 2024, Granite LP repaid €10.0 million aggregate principal amount of the September 2026 Term Loan without penalty. In conjunction with the partial repayment, a €10.0 million portion of the September 2026 Interest Rate Swap was terminated and the related mark to market liability of €0.2 million was settled.
(3)On October 12, 2023, Granite LP entered into a cross currency interest rate swap (the "April 2029 Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap") to exchange the Canadian dollar denominated principal and interest payments of the April 2029 Debentures for Euro denominated principal and interest payments resulting in an all-in effective fixed interest rate of 4.929%.
(4)On October 4, 2024, Granite LP entered into a cross currency interest rate swap (the "October 2029 Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap”) to exchange the Canadian dollar denominated principal and interest payments of the October 2029 Debentures for Euro denominated principal and interest payments resulting in an all-in effective fixed interest rate of 3.494%.
(5)On February 4, 2025, Granite LP issued the 2026 Debentures at a floating rate of interest of CORRA plus 0.77% and used the net proceeds from the offering to repay in full, without penalty, the December 2026 Term Loan. In combination with the 2026 Debentures, the all-in effective fixed interest rate is 0.27%.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2025, the cross currency interest rate swaps and the combination of the September 2026 Term Loan and September 2026 Interest Rate Swap are designated as net investment hedges of the Trust’s investments in foreign operations ("Net Investment Hedges"). The effectiveness of the hedges is assessed quarterly. Gains and losses associated with the effective portion of the hedges are recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). For the three month period ended March 31, 2025, the Trust has assessed the Net Investment Hedges to be effective, except for a portion of the combination of the September 2026 Term Loan and September 2026 Interest Rate Swap and a portion of the December 2026 Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2025, a net fair value gain of $0.1 million has been recognized in fair value (gains) losses on financial instruments, net (note 10(e)) in the condensed consolidated combined statement of net income, due to the ineffectiveness

relating to the interest rate portion of certain hedging relationships described above.

The Trust has elected to record the differences resulting from the interest rates associated with the derivatives in the condensed consolidated combined statements of net income.

UNITHOLDERS' EQUITY

(a)Unit-Based Compensation

Director/Trustee Deferred Share Unit Plan

The Trust has two Non-Employee Director Share-Based Compensation Plans (the “DSPs”) which provide for a deferral of up to 100% of each non-employee director’s total annual remuneration, at specified levels elected by each director. A reconciliation of the changes in the notional deferred share units ("DSUs") outstanding is presented below:

As a result of the Arrangement described in note 1, Granite amended the Executive Stapled Unit Plan (the "Restricted Stapled Unit Plan") to the Executive Deferred Unit Plan (the "Restricted Unit Plan"), the Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) to Restricted Units (“RUs”) and Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) to Performance Units (“PUs”).

The Restricted Unit Plan of the Trust provides for the issuance of RUs and PUs and is designed to provide equity-based compensation in the form of units to executives and other employees (the “Participants”).

The fair value of the outstanding RUs was $4.0 million at March 31, 2025 and is based on the market price of a unit. The fair value is adjusted for changes in the market price of a unit and recorded as a liability in the employee unit-based compensation payables (note 7).

The fair value of the outstanding PUs was $3.1 million at March 31, 2025 and is recorded as a liability in the employee unit-based compensation payables (note 7). The fair value is calculated using the Monte-Carlo simulation model based on the assumptions below as well as a market adjustment factor based on the total unitholder return of the units relative to the S&P/TSX Capped REIT Index.

(b)Normal Course Issuer Bid
On May 22, 2024, Granite announced the acceptance by the TSX of Granite’s Notice of Intention to Make a Normal Course Issuer Bid (“NCIB”). Following completion of the Arrangement, the NCIB continues as a NCIB of Granite REIT for the purchase of units. Pursuant to the NCIB, Granite proposes to purchase through the facilities of the TSX and any alternative trading system in Canada, from time to time and if considered advisable, up to an aggregate of 6,273,168 of Granite’s issued and outstanding units. The NCIB commenced on May 24, 2024 and will conclude on the earlier of the date on which purchases under the bid have been completed and May 23, 2025. Pursuant to the policies of the TSX, daily purchases made by Granite through the TSX may not exceed 23,113 units, subject to certain exceptions. Granite has entered into an automatic securities purchase plan with a broker in order to facilitate repurchases of the units under the NCIB during specified blackout periods. Pursuant to a previous notice of intention to conduct a NCIB, Granite received approval from the TSX to purchase units for the period May 24, 2023 to May 23, 2024.
During the three month period ended March 31, 2025, Granite repurchased 930,969 units at an average unit cost of $68.30 for total consideration of $63.6 million, excluding commissions and taxes on net repurchases of units. During the three month period ended March 31, 2024, there were no unit repurchases under the NCIB.

The Trust partially employed or did not employ hedge accounting for the derivatives and foreign exchange collars, therefore the change in fair value is recognized in fair value (gains) losses on financial instruments, net, in the condensed consolidated combined statement of net income.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2024, the net fair value loss on financial instruments of $2.0 million was comprised of the net fair value loss on the derivatives of $1.5 million which was associated with the fair value movements of the 2024 Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap, the December 2026 Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap, the combination of the 2025 Term Loan and 2025 Interest Rate Swap, and the combination of the September 2026 Term Loan and September 2026 Interest Rate Swap, together with the net fair value loss on the foreign exchange collar contracts of $0.5 million. The Trust partially employed or did not employ hedge accounting for the derivatives and foreign exchange collars, therefore the change in fair value was recognized in fair value (gains) losses on financial instruments, net, in the condensed consolidated combined statement of net income.

(2)As at March 31, 2025, foreign exchange collars of $1.3 million (December 31, 2024 - $1.3 million) included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities (note 7).

The fair values of the Trust’s accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and distributions payable approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short periods to maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of the long-term receivable included in other assets approximates its carrying amount as the receivable bears interest at rates comparable to current market rates. The fair values of the unsecured debentures are determined using quoted market prices. The fair values of the unsecured revolving credit facility and term loans approximate their carrying amounts as the unsecured revolving credit facility and term loans bear interest at rates comparable to the current market rates. The fair values of the derivatives and foreign exchange collars are determined using market inputs quoted by their counterparties.
Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 87



The Trust periodically purchases foreign exchange collars to hedge specific anticipated foreign currency transactions and to mitigate its foreign exchange exposure on its net cash flows. At March 31, 2025, the Trust held 9 outstanding foreign exchange collar contracts (December 31, 2024 — 12) with a notional value of US$63.0 million (December 31, 2024 — US$84.0 million) and contracts the Trust to sell US dollars and receive Canadian dollars if specific US dollar exchange rates relative to the Canadian dollar are met. At March 31, 2025, the Trust also held 15 outstanding foreign exchange collar contracts (December 31, 2024 — 12) with a notional value of €30.0 million (December 31, 2024 — €24.0 million) and contracts the Trust to sell Euros and receive Canadian dollars if specific Euro exchange rates relative to the Canadian dollar are met. For the three month period ended March 31, 2025, the Trust recorded a net fair value gain of less than $0.1 million (2024 — net fair value loss of $0.5 million) related to the outstanding foreign exchange collar contracts (note 10(e)). The Trust did not employ hedge accounting for these financial instruments.

(b)Fair Value Hierarchy

Fair value measurements are based on inputs of observable and unobservable market data that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability. IFRS Accounting Standards establishes a fair value hierarchy which is summarized below:

Level 1:    Fair value determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2:    Fair value determined using significant observable inputs, generally either quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities or quoted prices in markets that are not active.

Level 3:    Fair value determined using significant unobservable inputs, such as pricing models, discounted cash flows or similar techniques.

The following tables represent information related to the Trust’s assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall.

For assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the Trust determines whether transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy have occurred by reassessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. For the three month period ended March 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, there were no transfers between the levels.

(c)Risk Management

Foreign exchange risk

As at March 31, 2025, the Trust is exposed to foreign exchange risk primarily in respect of movements in the Euro and the US dollar. The Trust is structured such that its foreign operations are primarily conducted by entities with a functional currency which is the same as the economic environment in which the operations take place. As a result, the net income impact of currency risk associated with financial instruments is limited as its financial assets and liabilities are generally denominated in the functional currency of the subsidiary that holds the financial instrument. However, the Trust is exposed to foreign currency risk on its net investment in its foreign currency denominated operations and certain Trust level foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. At March 31, 2025, the Trust’s foreign currency denominated net assets are $6.8 billion primarily in US dollars and Euros. A 1% change in the US dollar and Euro exchange rates relative to the Canadian dollar would result in a gain or loss of approximately $46.6 million and $21.0 million, respectively, to comprehensive income.

14.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

(a) The Trust is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Management evaluates all claims with the advice of legal counsel. Management believes these claims are generally covered by Granite's insurance policies and that any liability from remaining claims is not probable to occur and would not have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated combined financial statements. However, actual outcomes may differ from management's expectations.

Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 89



(b) As at March 31, 2025, the Trust's contractual commitments totaled $69.0 million which are primarily comprised of costs to complete its ongoing construction and development projects.

(c) In connection with the acquisitions of investment properties located in Palmetto, Georgia on November 12, 2020 and in Locust Grove, Georgia on March 12, 2021, $139.6 million (US$97.1 million) of bonds were assumed. The authorized amount of the bonds is $149.5 million (US$104.0 million), of which $75.6 million (US$52.6 million) was outstanding as at March 31, 2025. The bonds provide for a real estate tax abatement for the acquired investment properties. Through a series of transactions, the Trust is both the bondholder and the obligor of the bonds. Therefore, in accordance with IAS 32, the bonds are not recorded in the condensed consolidated combined balance sheets.

The Trust is involved, in the normal course of business, in discussions, and has various letters of intent or conditional agreements, with respect to possible acquisitions of new properties and dispositions of existing properties in its portfolio. None of these potential commitments or contingencies, individually or in aggregate, would have a material impact on the condensed consolidated combined financial statements.

15.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

(a) Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Trust declared distributions for April 2025 of $17.4 million or $0.2833 per unit (note 8) .

(b) Subsequent to March 31, 2025, Granite repurchased 497,300 units under the NCIB at an average unit cost of $63.42 for total consideration of $31.5 million, excluding commissions and taxes on net repurchases of units.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION


Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Position (“MD&A”) of Granite Real Estate Investment Trust (“Granite REIT”) summarizes the significant factors affecting the condensed consolidated combined operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows of Granite REIT and its subsidiaries (collectively “Granite” or the “Trust”) for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts are in millions of Canadian dollars. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated combined financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) (“IFRS Accounting Standards” or “GAAP”). The MD&A was prepared as at May 7, 2025 and its contents were approved by the Board of Trustees of Granite REIT on this date. Additional information relating to Granite, including the Annual Report and Annual Information Form (“AIF”) for fiscal 2024 and dated February 26, 2025, can be obtained from the Trust’s website at www.granitereit.com, on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

On October 1, 2024, Granite replaced its stapled unit structure (comprising of one unit of Granite REIT and one share of Granite REIT Inc. (“Granite GP”)) with a conventional REIT trust unit structure pursuant to a court approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Arrangement"). As a result of and immediately following the Arrangement, each unitholder of Granite REIT ("unitholder") held a number Granite REIT units ("units") equal to the number of stapled units held prior to the completion of the Arrangement, and Granite GP became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Granite REIT. The stapled units were delisted from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") and the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE"), and the units trade on the TSX and the NYSE under the same ticker symbols "GRT.UN" and "GRP.U", respectively. For the periods prior to October 1, 2024, references to "units" should be read as "stapled units" and "unitholders" should be read as "stapled unitholders".

In addition to using financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, Granite also uses certain non-GAAP performance measures and non-GAAP ratios in
Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 1


managing its business to measure financial and operating performance as well as for capital allocation decisions and valuation purposes. Granite believes that providing these measures on a supplemental basis to the GAAP amounts is helpful to investors in assessing the overall performance of Granite’s business.

The non-GAAP performance measures include net operating income before lease termination and close-out fees, straight-line rent and tenant incentive amortization (“NOI - cash basis”), same property NOI - cash basis, constant currency same property NOI - cash basis, funds from operations (“FFO”), adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), available liquidity, total debt and net debt. Refer to “NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES” for definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP performance measures to GAAP financial measures.

The non-GAAP ratios include FFO payout ratio, AFFO payout ratio, leverage ratio, interest coverage ratio, net leverage ratio, indebtedness ratio, unencumbered asset coverage ratio and any related per unit amounts. Refer to “NON-GAAP RATIOS” for definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP ratios to GAAP financial measures.

Readers are cautioned that these measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed under IFRS Accounting Standards and, therefore, should not be construed as alternatives to net income, cash provided by operating activities or any other measure calculated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Additionally, because these terms do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other reporting issuers.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND STRATEGIC OUTLOOK

Business Overview

Granite is a Canadian-based real estate investment trust (“REIT”) engaged in the acquisition, development, ownership and management of logistics, warehouse and industrial properties in North America and Europe. As at May 7, 2025, Granite owns 144 investment properties in five countries having approximately 63.3 million square feet of gross leasable area. Granite has a highly-integrated team of real estate professionals with extensive experience in operations, leasing, development, investment and asset management located at its head office in Toronto, Canada and regional offices in Dallas, United States; Vienna, Austria; and Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Granite’s investment properties consist of income-producing properties and development properties (see “INVESTMENT PROPERTIES”). The income-producing properties consist primarily of logistics, e-commerce and distribution warehouses, and light industrial and heavy industrial manufacturing properties. Lease payments are primarily denominated in three currencies: the Canadian dollar (“$”), the Euro (“€”) and the US dollar (“US$”). Granite’s investment properties by geographic location, property count and square footage as at May 7, 2025 are summarized below:

Investment Properties Summary
Five countries/144 properties/63.3 million square feet

Strategic Outlook

Management continues to identify and pursue value creation and investment opportunities that management believes will generate superior long-term total returns for unitholders.

Granite’s long-term strategy is to continue to build upon its institutional and globally diversified industrial real estate business; to grow and diversify its asset base through acquisitions, development, re-development, expansions and dispositions; to maintain a conservative balance sheet; and to reduce its exposure to its largest tenant, Magna International Inc. and its
6 Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report


operating subsidiaries (collectively, “Magna”) and the special purpose properties (see “INVESTMENT PROPERTIES”).

Granite has positioned itself financially to execute on its strategic plan, including to capitalize on any strategic opportunities as they arise and existing and future development activity within its targeted geographic footprint.

As Granite looks to the remainder of 2025, its priorities are set out below:
Driving FFO and net asset value (“NAV”) per unit growth while maintaining conservative capital ratios;
Actively managing its income-producing portfolio and recently completed developments, focusing on new and renewal leasing;
Strategically allocating free cash flow to accretive unit repurchases;
Executing on its development project in the U.S. and assessing other development, re-development and expansion opportunities in the U.S., Europe, and the GTA;
Selectively pursuing strategic land and income-producing property acquisition opportunities in our target markets while disposing of select non-core assets; and
Advancing Granite’s Environmental, Social, Governance and Resilience (ESG+R) program and meeting established targets and compliance requirements.

2025 OUTLOOK

Granite is maintaining its 2025 guidance as presented on February 26, 2025. Granite’s current outlook does not significantly change assumptions relating to new leasing of vacant space which continues to be projected primarily later in the second half of 2025 and also reflects year to date financing and NCIB activity. Granite’s FFO per unit forecast represents an approximate 5% to 8% increase over 2024 and the AFFO per unit forecast represents a change of -1% to 2% over 2024 driven by higher maintenance capital expenditures relative to the prior year.

The high and low ranges of Granite’s forecast are driven by foreign currency exchange rate assumptions for the nine-month forecast period between April and December, 2025, which have been modified relative to guidance provided on February 26, 2025, reflecting a recent weakening of the Canadian dollar relative to the Euro offset by the strengthening of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar.

The table below outlines Granite’s current forecast for the year ending December 31, 2025:

MeasureCurrentPreviously Published
EUR:CAD exchange rate (1)
1.52 to 1.581.45 to 1.50

(1) Foreign exchange rate assumptions pertain to forecast period only of the respective outlook.
Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 7


Granite’s 2025 forecast assumes no acquisitions and dispositions, and assumes no favourable reversals of tax provisions relating to prior years which cannot be determined at this time. Non-GAAP performance measures are included in Granite’s 2025 forecast above (see “NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES”). See also “FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS”.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, GOVERNANCE, AND RESILIENCE (ESG+R)
Granite recognizes the important role building owners can play in fostering the efficient use of resources and respecting our environment. As a good steward for investors, Granite seeks to practically incorporate sustainability in its actions and decision-making process, while generating returns for unitholders.

Consistent with this principle, Granite applies the following long-term ESG+R objectives in its business:

EnvironmentalSocialGovernanceResilience
Promote efficiency and sustainable practices at both Granite’s properties and corporate offices
Engage with investors, employees, tenants, property managers, and community
Disclose ESG+R performance as a commitment to transparency and accountability
 Identify and mitigate potential climate-related risks within our portfolio

tenants, implementing green lease language, and obtaining data directly from the utility companies whenever available;
Granite has exceeded its updated target to support the production of new renewable energy through the installation of on-site solar PV systems with the capacity to generate 24 MW of electricity by 20256. Solar PV systems with peak generation capacity of 49.35 MW are currently operational on Granite properties. Granite upgraded its target in 2024 to reach 50 MW of peak solar capacity by the end of 2025;
Four beehives are installed on Granite’s behalf at three properties to promote local biodiversity and engagement with tenants;
Granite commits that all development projects controlled by Granite will be built to standards consistent with the scope of its Green Bond Framework and aims to certify 100% of new developments to a third-party green building certification standard (such as LEED, BREEAM, Green Globes, DGNB). To date, Granite has issued three green bonds totaling $1.4 billion in net proceeds. As at December 31, 2024, Granite has allocated $1.2 billion (85.2%) of green bond net proceeds to Eligible Green Projects under its Green Bond Framework;
Granite sent all tenants an annual Sustainability Metrics Survey for the fiscal year 2024 in the first quarter of 2025. The survey is used to identify what sustainability initiatives have been implemented at each property over the past year, including those initiated by tenants. Results from the Sustainability Metrics Survey are expected in the second quarter of 2025; and
Granite has exceeded the target to strategically evaluate and pursue applicable green building certifications at Granite’s properties and achieve 30% third-party green building certifications by floor area by 2030. Currently, 58% by floor area, or 46% by income-producing property count has been certified. Below is a list of Granite’s properties that have achieved a green certification.

Foreign Currency Translation

The majority of Granite’s investment properties are located in Europe and the United States and the cash flows derived from such properties are primarily denominated in Euros and U.S. dollars. Accordingly, fluctuations in the Canadian dollar, Granite’s reporting currency, relative to the Euro and U.S. dollar will result in fluctuations in the reported values of revenues, expenses, cash flows, assets and liabilities. The most significant foreign currency exchange rates that impact Granite’s business are summarized in the following table:

$ per US$1.001.435 1.349 %1.438 1.440 — %

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the prior year period, the average exchange rates of the Euro and the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar were higher, which on a comparative basis, increased the Canadian dollar equivalent of revenue and expenses from Granite’s European and U.S. operations.

The period end exchange rate of the Euro relative to the Canadian dollar on March 31, 2025 was higher when compared to the December 31, 2024 exchange rate. As a result, the Canadian dollar equivalent of assets and liabilities from Granite’s European operations was higher, when compared to December 31, 2024.

The period end exchange rate of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar on March 31, 2025 was slightly lower when compared to the December 31, 2024 exchange rate. As a result, the Canadian dollar equivalent of assets and liabilities from Granite’s U.S. operations was lower, when compared to December 31, 2024.

Straight-line rent amortization represents the scheduled fixed rent changes or rent-free periods in leases that are recognized in revenue evenly on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Tenant incentive amortization mainly represents cash allowance incentives provided to tenants that are recognized in revenue evenly on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 19


NOI - cash basis for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased by $11.6 million to $123.0 million from $111.4 million in the prior year period, representing an increase of 10.4%. The increase in NOI - cash basis was largely a result of the increase in rental revenue as noted previously, partially offset by an increase in property operating costs consistent with the increase in tenant recovery revenue and the vacancies at properties in the United States, Canada and Netherlands.

Same property NOI - cash basis for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased by $10.3 million (9.3%) to $121.5 million from $111.2 million primarily due to the increase in contractual rents arising from both consumer price index and fixed rent increases, re-leasing and renewals of leases for properties primarily located in Canada, the United States and Austria, and the favourable foreign exchange impact from the weakening of the Canadian dollar against the Euro and the US dollar, partially offset by vacancies at properties in the United States, Canada and Netherlands. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, same property NOI - cash basis for the three month period ended March 31, 2025 increased by $5.5 million (4.7%) from the prior year period.

NOI - cash basis for the three month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 by geography was as follows:

General and administrative expenses were $8.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2025 and decreased $1.2 million in comparison to the prior year period primarily as a result of the following:
an increase in the fair value remeasurement recovery associated with the trustee/director and executive unit-based compensation plans resulting from a decrease in the market price of the Trust’s units in the current year period compared to an increase in the market price of the Trust’s units in the prior year period;
a decrease in salaries and benefits expense primarily due to a favourable adjustment related to the prior year’s incentive pay accruals; and
a decrease in corporate restructuring costs primarily due to the completion of the corporate restructuring initiative in the prior year period, partially offset by;
an increase in executive unit-based compensation expense primarily due to a higher number of restricted units (“RUs”) granted relative to the prior year quarter resulting in a higher vesting expense of the RU grants.

Interest Income

Interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2025 decreased $0.3 million to $1.0 million from $1.3 million in the prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to lower interest rates and lower invested cash balances in the current year period relative to the prior year period.



22 Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report


Interest Expense and Other Financing Costs

Interest expense and other financing costs for the three month period ended March 31, 2025 increased $2.0 million to $23.6 million from $21.6 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to the increase in interest expense as a result of the issuance of the October 2029 Debentures at a higher market interest rate than the interest rate of the US$185.0 million term facility that matured on December 19, 2024 (the "2024 Term Loan") it refinanced, the increase in interest resulting from draws on Granite’s Credit Facility, the decrease in capitalized interest resulting from the completion of development projects, and the general increase in foreign-denominated interest due to the weakening of the Canadian dollar against the U.S dollar and Euro, partially offset by interest savings from the issuance of the 2031 Debentures in October 2024 at lower market interest rates than the interest rate of the US$400.0 million senior unsecured non-revolving term facility maturing on September 15, 2025 (the "2025 Term Loan") it refinanced, the interest savings from the issuance of the 2026 Debentures at lower market interest rates than the interest rate of the December 2026 Term Loan it refinanced, and the partial prepayment of the September 2026 Term Loan in December 2024.

As at March 31, 2025, Granite’s weighted average cost of interest-bearing debt was 2.67% (March 31, 2024 - 2.60%) and its weighted average debt term-to-maturity was 4.1 years (March 31, 2024 - 3.6 years).

Foreign Exchange Gains and Losses, Net

Granite recognized net foreign exchange losses of $0.1 million and net foreign exchange gains of $0.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The $0.4 million increase in net foreign exchange losses is primarily due to the increase in the foreign exchange losses from the remeasurement of certain monetary assets and liabilities of the Trust that are denominated in US dollars and Euros not forming part of a net investment in a foreign operation and the increase in foreign exchange losses realized from the settlement of foreign exchange collar contracts in the current year period.

Fair Value Gains and Losses on Investment Properties, Net

Net fair value losses on investment properties were $48.2 million and net fair value gains on investment properties were $12.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In the three months ended March 31, 2025, net fair value losses of $48.2 million were primarily attributable to the expansion in the discount and terminal capitalization rates at select properties across all of Granite’s markets due to market conditions, partially offset by fair market rent increases at select properties, primarily in Europe.

Net fair value gains on investment properties in the three months ended March 31, 2024 of $12.7 million were primarily attributable to the stabilization of a development property in Brantford, Canada, which was completed and transferred to income-producing properties during the first quarter of 2024, partially offset by the expansion in discount and terminal capitalization rates across select Granite assets largely due to market conditions.








Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 23


Fair Value Gains and Losses on Financial Instruments, Net

The net fair value gains on financial instruments for the three month period ended March 31, 2025 were $0.1 million while the net fair value losses on financial instruments for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 were $2.0 million.

The net fair value gains on financial instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are related to the fair value gains from the ineffective hedge portion of the combination of the September 2026 Term Loan and the September 2026 Interest Rate Swap (as defined herein), the fair value gains from the ineffective hedge portion of the December 2026 Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap (as defined herein), and the net fair value gains on the foreign exchange collar contracts.

The net fair value losses on financial instruments for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 are related to the fair value losses from the ineffective hedge portion of the cross currency interest rate swap related to the 2024 Term Loan and the net fair value losses on the foreign exchange collar contracts, partially offset by the fair value gains from the ineffective hedge portion of the combination of the 2025 Term Loan and the related interest rate swap, the fair value gains from the ineffective hedge portion of the combination of the September 2026 Term Loan and the September 2026 Interest Rate Swap, and the fair value gains from the ineffective hedge portion of the December 2026 Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap.

The Trust partially employed or did not employ hedge accounting for certain derivatives and foreign exchange collars, therefore the change in fair value thereon is recognized in fair value (gains) losses on financial instruments, net, in the unaudited condensed consolidated combined statements of net income.

The Trust periodically purchases foreign exchange collars to hedge specific anticipated foreign currency transactions and to mitigate its foreign exchange exposure on its net cash flows. As at March 31, 2025, the Trust held nine outstanding foreign exchange collar contracts (December 31, 2024 — twelve) with a notional value of US$63.0 million (December 31, 2024 — US$84.0 million) and contracts the Trust to sell US dollars and receive Canadian dollars if specific US dollar exchange rates relative to the Canadian dollar are met. As at March 31, 2025, the Trust also held fifteen outstanding foreign exchange collar contracts (December 31, 2024 — twelve) with a notional value of €30.0 million (December 31, 2024 — €24.0 million) and contracts the Trust to sell Euros and receive Canadian dollars if specific Euro exchange rates relative to the Canadian dollar are met (see “LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Derivatives”).

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, current tax expense remained consistent compared to the prior year period primarily due to the impact of the weakening of the Canadian dollar on Euro denominated tax expenses as compared to the prior year period, offset by the release of a German withholding tax reserve pertaining to a prior tax year.

The increase in deferred tax recovery for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the prior year period was primarily due to the change in fair value on investment properties recognized in jurisdictions in which deferred taxes are recorded as compared to the prior year period.

Net Income Attributable to Unitholders

For the three month period ended March 31, 2025, net income attributable to unitholders was $43.9 million compared to $89.1 million in the prior year period. The decrease in net income attributable to unitholders was primarily due to a $60.9 million unfavourable change in fair value adjustments on investment properties, and a $2.0 million increase in interest expense and other financing costs, partially offset by a $11.2 million increase in net operating income, a $4.1 million decrease in income tax expense, and a $2.1 million increase in fair value gains on financial instruments.

Additional details pertaining to the components of the change in AFFO are as follows:
the $8.6 million increase in FFO, as noted previously;
a $1.2 million increase in AFFO from a decrease in tenant incentive and straight-line rent amortization, net of non-controlling interests, primarily due to the expiration of rent-free periods relating to lease renewals in the United States and Canada and a new lease for a completed development property in Canada in the prior year period;
a $0.6 million increase in AFFO from a decrease in tenant allowances incurred in the current year period relative to the prior year period; and
a $0.2 million increase in AFFO from lower maintenance or improvement capital expenditures incurred in the current year period relative to the prior year period, partially offset by;
a $0.1 million decrease in AFFO primarily from higher leasing costs in the current year period primarily related to properties in the United States.

INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

Granite’s investment properties consist of income-producing properties and development properties. Substantially all of the income-producing properties are for industrial use and can be categorized as (i) distribution/e-commerce, (ii) industrial/warehouse, (iii) flex/office or (iv) special purpose properties designed and built with specialized features and leased primarily to Magna.

The attributes of the income-producing properties are versatile and are based on the needs of the tenant such that an industrial property used by a certain tenant for light or heavy manufacturing can be used by another tenant for other industrial uses after some retrofitting if necessary. Accordingly, the investment property portfolio is substantially for industrial use and, as such, Granite determined that its asset class comprises industrial properties for purposes of financial reporting. The fair value of the industrial properties, as noted below, is based upon the current tenanting, existing use and attributes of such properties.

Development properties are comprised of both properties under development and land held for development:

i.a 34.0 acre site in Brantford, Ontario where Granite is currently seeking site plan approval for its second phase of development for up to 0.7 million square feet;
ii.a 68.7 acre site in Houston, Texas where Granite is currently seeking site plan approval and continues its site infrastructure work for the future phases of development for up to 0.7 million square feet;
iii.a 30.8 acre site in Houston, Texas where Granite is currently seeking the site plan approval and continues its site infrastructure work at its 0.4 million square foot, 36’ clear height, state-of-the-art modern distribution facility expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026;
iv.12.9 acres of development land in West Jefferson, Ohio;
v.the remaining 36.0 acre parcel of land in Brantford, Ontario, for the development of a multi-phased business park comprising a total of approximately 0.6 million square feet of modern distribution and logistics space upon completion; and
vi.10.1 acres of land in Brant County, Ontario for the development of a 0.2 million square foot modern distribution facility.

32 Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report


During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the fair value of investment properties increased by $43.9 million primarily due to:
foreign exchange gains of $83.5 million resulting from the relative weakening of the Canadian dollar against the Euro, partially offset by the slight strengthening of the Canadian dollar against the US dollar;
development additions of $5.3 million primarily relating to a property under development in the United States and two continuing development projects in Canada (see “SIGNIFICANT MATTERS - Construction and Development Commitments”); and
income-producing property additions of $1.4 million relating to capital projects and leasing activity at properties primarily in the United States, partially offset by;
net fair value losses of $48.2 million, which were primarily attributable to the expansion in the discount and terminal capitalization rates at select properties across all of Granite’s markets due to market conditions, partially offset by fair market rent increases at select properties, primarily in Europe.

Fair values were primarily determined by using a 10-year cash flow and subsequent reversionary value discounted back to present value. The valuation metrics utilized to derive Granite’s investment property valuations are determined by management. Granite does not value its investment properties based on models prepared by external appraisers but uses such external appraisals as data points, alongside other external market information for management to arrive at its own conclusions on values. Granite receives valuation assumptions from external appraisers such as discount rates, terminal capitalization rates and market rental rates, however, the Trust also considers its knowledge of historical renewal experiences with its tenants, its understanding of certain specialized aspects of Granite’s portfolio and tenant profile, and its knowledge of the current condition of the properties to determine proprietary market leasing assumptions, including lease renewal probabilities, renewal rents and capital expenditures. There has been no change in the valuation methodology used during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The key valuation metrics for Granite’s investment properties including the discount and terminal capitalization rates by jurisdiction are summarized in note 3 to the unaudited condensed consolidated combined financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025. In addition, valuation metrics for Granite’s income-producing properties by asset category and region as at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:

Capital Expenditures and Leasing Costs

Capital expenditures relate to sustaining the existing earnings capacity of the property portfolio and to generate new revenue streams and/or increase the productivity of a property. Capital expenditures can include expansion or development expenditures and maintenance or improvement expenditures. Expansion or development capital expenditures are discretionary in nature and are incurred to generate new revenue streams and/or increase the productivity of a property. Maintenance or improvement capital expenditures relate to sustaining the existing earnings capacity of a property. Leasing costs include direct leasing costs and lease incentives. Direct leasing costs include broker commissions incurred in negotiating and arranging tenant leases. Lease incentives include the cost of leasehold improvements to tenant spaces and/or cash allowances provided to tenants for leasehold improvement costs.

Leasing Profile

Magna, Granite’s Largest Tenant

As at March 31, 2025, Magna International Inc. or one of its operating subsidiaries was the tenant at 27 (December 31, 2024 - 27) of Granite’s income-producing properties and comprised 27% (December 31, 2024 - 26%) of Granite’s annualized revenue and 19% (December 31, 2024 - 19%) of Granite’s GLA.

According to its public disclosures, Magna International Inc. has a credit rating of A3 with a stable outlook by Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), A(low) credit rating with a stable outlook confirmed by Morningstar DBRS and A- credit rating with a negative outlook by S&P Global Ratings. Magna is a global mobility technology company with complete vehicle engineering and contract manufacturing expertise. Magna’s product capabilities include body, chassis, exteriors, seating, powertrain, active driver assistance, electronics, mechatronics, mirrors, lighting and roof systems.

Granite’s relationship with Magna is an arm’s length landlord and tenant relationship governed by the terms of Granite’s leases. Granite’s properties are generally leased to operating subsidiaries of Magna International Inc. and are not guaranteed by the parent company;
36 Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report


however, Magna International Inc. is the tenant under certain of Granite’s leases. The terms of the lease arrangements with Magna generally provide for the following:
the obligation of Magna to pay for costs of occupancy, including operating costs, property taxes and maintenance and repair costs;
rent escalations based on either fixed-rate steps or inflation;
renewal options tied to market rental rates or inflation;
environmental indemnities from the tenant; and
a right of first refusal in favour of Magna on the sale of a property.

Renewal terms, rates and conditions are typically set out in Granite’s leases with Magna and form the basis for tenancies that continue beyond the expiries of the initial lease terms.

Granite expects Magna to continuously seek to optimize its global manufacturing footprint and consequently, Magna may or may not renew leases for facilities currently under lease at their expiries.

Other Tenants

In addition to Magna, as at March 31, 2025, Granite had 120 other tenants from various industries that in aggregate comprised 73% of the Trust’s annualized revenue. Each of these tenants accounted for less than 5% of the Trust’s annualized revenue as at March 31, 2025.

Granite can seek to obtain secured financing against its unencumbered assets subject to certain restrictions and financial covenant limitations in its Credit Facility, term loan agreements and trust indentures.

Granite intends to use its available liquidity to fund potential acquisitions of properties, to finance or refinance expenditures associated with Eligible Green Projects (as described in the Granite Green Bond Framework, which is available on Granite’s website), for commitments under existing development projects, to refinance or repay its unsecured debt maturities, for unit repurchases under its NCIB, and for general trust purposes.

Management believes that the Trust’s cash resources, cash flow from operations and available third-party borrowings will be sufficient to finance its operations and capital expenditures program over the next year as well as to pay distributions. Granite expects to fund its ongoing operations and future growth through the use of (i) existing cash and cash equivalents, (ii) cash flows from operating activities, (iii) cash flows from asset sales, (iv) financing available from the Credit Facility, (v) the issuance of unsecured debentures or equity, subject to market conditions and/or, if necessary, (vi) financing that may be obtained on its unencumbered assets.

Operating Activities

During the three month period ended March 31, 2025, operating activities generated cash of $108.9 million compared to $84.0 million in the prior year period. The increase of $24.9 million was due to various factors as noted in the “RESULTS OF OPERATIONS” section including, among others, the following:
an increase in NOI - cash basis of $11.6 million;
a decrease of $5.3 million in interest paid primarily due to the change in interest payment terms resulting from the replacement of the term loans, previously requiring monthly interest payments, with the newly issued debentures, which have interest payable semi-annually in April and October;
a decrease of $8.3 million of cash used in working capital changes primarily due to timing of payments and receipts; and
a decrease of $0.7 million in general and administrative expenses, excluding the impact of unit-based compensation, partially offset by;
an increase of $0.7 million of income taxes paid;
an increase of $0.4 million of foreign exchange losses; and
a decrease of $0.3 million in interest income generally due to lower interest rates in the current year period relative to the prior year period.

Investing Activities

additions to income-producing properties paid of $0.5 million primarily attributable to ongoing maintenance capital in the United States and Europe;

The distributions declared in April 2025 in the amount of $17.4 million or $0.2833 per unit will be paid on May 15, 2025.

Pursuant to the requirement of National Policy 41-201, Income Trusts and Other Indirect Offerings (“NP 41-201”), the following table outlines the differences between cash flow from operating activities and cash distributions as well as the differences between net income and cash distributions, in accordance with the guidelines under NP 41-201.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities in Excess of Distributions Paid and Payable
Three Months Ended March 31,

Monthly cash distributions paid and payable(52.8)(52.3)
Cash flows from operating activities in excess of distributions paid and payable
$56.1 $31.7 

Monthly distributions for the three month periods ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were funded with cash flows from operating activities.

Net income prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards recognizes revenue and expenses at time intervals that do not necessarily match the receipt or payment of cash. Therefore, when establishing cash distributions to unitholders, consideration is given to factors such as FFO, AFFO, cash generated from and required for operating activities and forward-looking cash flow information, including forecasts and budgets. Management does not expect current or potential future commitments to replace or maintain its investment properties to adversely affect cash distributions.

Normal Course Issuer Bid

On May 22, 2024, Granite announced the acceptance by the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") of Granite’s Notice of Intention to Make a Normal Course Issuer Bid. Following completion of the Arrangement, the NCIB has continued as a NCIB of Granite REIT for the purchase of units. Pursuant to the NCIB, Granite proposes to purchase through the facilities of the TSX and any alternative trading system in Canada, from time to time and if considered advisable, up to an aggregate of 6,273,168 of Granite’s issued and outstanding units. The NCIB commenced on May 24, 2024 and will conclude on the earlier of the date on which purchases under the bid have been completed and May 23, 2025. Pursuant to the policies of the TSX, daily purchases made by Granite through the TSX may not exceed 23,113 units, subject to certain exceptions. Granite has entered into an automatic securities purchase plan with a broker in order to facilitate repurchases of the units under the NCIB during specified blackout periods. Pursuant to a previous notice of intention to conduct a NCIB, Granite received approval from the TSX to purchase units for the period May 24, 2023 to May 23, 2024.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, Granite repurchased 930,969 units at an average unit cost of $68.30 for total consideration of $63.6 million, excluding commissions and taxes on net repurchases of units. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, there were no unit repurchases under the NCIB.

COMMITMENTS, CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS, CONTINGENCIES AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Trust is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Management evaluates all claims with the advice of legal counsel. Management believes these claims are generally covered by Granite's insurance policies and that any liability from remaining claims is not probable to occur and would not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or liquidity of the Trust. However, actual outcomes may differ from management’s expectations.

Off-balance sheet arrangements consist of outstanding letters of credit to support certain contractual obligations, property purchase commitments, construction and development project commitments and certain operating agreements. As at March 31, 2025, the Trust had $2.4 million in letters of credit outstanding. As at March 31, 2025, the Trust's contractual commitments totaled $69.0 million which comprised of costs to complete its ongoing construction and development projects. Granite expects to fund these commitments over the next year through the use of cash on hand, cash from operations and/or Granite’s Credit Facility.

For further discussion of commitments, contractual obligations, contingencies and off-balance sheet arrangements, refer to notes 5, 7 and 14 to the unaudited condensed consolidated combined financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 51


NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES

The following non-GAAP performance measures are important measures used by management in evaluating the Trust’s underlying operating performance and debt management. These non-GAAP performance measures are not defined by IFRS Accounting Standards and do not have standard meanings. The Trust’s method of calculating non-GAAP performance measures may differ from other issuers’ methods and, accordingly, the Trust’s non-GAAP performance measures may not be comparable with similar measures presented by other issuers.

Funds from operations

FFO is a non-GAAP performance measure that is widely used by the real estate industry in evaluating the operating performance of real estate entities. Granite calculates FFO as net income attributable to unitholders excluding fair value gains (losses) on investment properties and financial instruments, gains (losses) on sale of investment properties including the associated current income tax, foreign exchange gains (losses) on certain monetary items not forming part of a net investment in a foreign operation, deferred income taxes, corporate restructuring costs and certain other items, net of non-controlling interests in such items. The Trust’s determination of FFO follows the definition prescribed by the Real Property Association of Canada (“REALPAC”) guidelines on Funds From Operations & Adjusted Funds From Operations for IFRS Accounting Standards dated January 2022 (“REALPAC Guidelines”) except for the exclusion of corporate restructuring costs. Granite considers FFO to be a meaningful supplemental measure that can be used to determine the Trust’s ability to service debt, fund capital expenditures and provide distributions to unitholders. FFO is reconciled to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure (see “RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations” for the reconciliation of FFO to net income for the periods presented). FFO should not be construed as an alternative to net income or cash flow provided by operating activities determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

Adjusted funds from operations

AFFO is a non-GAAP performance measure that is widely used by the real estate industry in evaluating the recurring economic earnings performance of real estate entities after considering certain costs associated with sustaining such earnings. Granite calculates AFFO as net income attributable to unitholders including all adjustments used to calculate FFO noted above, and further adjusts for actual maintenance capital expenditures that are required to sustain Granite’s productive capacity, leasing costs such as leasing commissions and tenant allowances incurred and non-cash straight-line rent and tenant incentive amortization, net of non-controlling interests in such items. The Trust's determination of AFFO follows the definition prescribed by the REALPAC Guidelines, except for the exclusion of corporate restructuring costs as noted above. Granite considers AFFO to be a meaningful supplemental measure that can be used to determine the Trust’s ability to service debt, fund expansion capital expenditures, fund property development and provide distributions to unitholders after considering costs associated with sustaining operating earnings. AFFO is also reconciled to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure (see “RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations” for the reconciliation of AFFO to net income for the periods presented). AFFO should not be construed as an alternative to net income or cash flow provided by operating activities determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

52 Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report


Net operating income - cash basis

Granite uses NOI on a cash basis, which adjusts NOI to exclude lease termination and close-out fees, and the non-cash impact from straight-line rent and tenant incentive amortization recognized during the period (see “RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Net Operating Income” for the reconciliation of NOI - cash basis to NOI for the periods presented). NOI - cash basis is a commonly used measure by the real estate industry and Granite believes it is a useful supplementary measure of the income generated by and operating performance of income-producing properties in addition to the most comparable GAAP measure, which Granite believes is NOI. NOI - cash basis is also a key input in Granite’s determination of the fair value of its investment property portfolio.

Same property net operating income - cash basis

Same property NOI - cash basis refers to the NOI - cash basis 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 (see “RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Net Operating Income” for a reconciliation of same property NOI - cash basis to NOI - cash basis and to NOI for the periods presented). 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.

Constant currency same property NOI - cash basis

Constant currency same property NOI - cash basis is a non-GAAP performance measure used by management in evaluating the performance of properties owned by Granite throughout the entire current and prior year periods on a constant currency basis. It is calculated by taking same property NOI as defined above and excluding the impact of foreign currency translation by converting the same property NOI denominated in foreign currency in the respective periods at the current period average exchange rates (see “RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Net Operating Income” for a reconciliation of constant currency same property NOI to same property NOI - cash basis for the periods presented).

Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 53


Adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”)

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income attributable to unitholders before lease termination and close-out fees, interest expense, interest income, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, fair value gains (losses) on investment properties and financial instruments, other expense relating to real estate transfer tax and loss on the sale of investment properties, foreign exchange gains (losses) on certain monetary items not forming part of a net investment in a foreign operation, corporate restructuring costs and certain other items, net of non-controlling interests in such items. Adjusted EBITDA, calculated on a 12-month trailing basis (“trailing 12-month adjusted EBITDA”), represents an operating cash flow measure that Granite uses in calculating the interest coverage ratio and indebtedness ratio noted below. Adjusted EBITDA is also defined in Granite’s debt agreements and used in calculating the Trust’s debt covenants.

Available Liquidity

Available liquidity is a non-GAAP performance measure defined as the sum of cash and cash equivalents and the unused portion of the Credit Facility. Granite believes that available liquidity is a useful measure to investors in determining the Trust’s resources available as at period-end to meet its ongoing obligations and future commitments (see “LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Liquidity”).

Total Debt and Net Debt

Total debt is a non-GAAP performance measure calculated as the sum of all current and non-current debt, the net mark to market fair value of derivatives and lease obligations. 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 (see “LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Debt Structure”).

54 Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report


NON-GAAP RATIOS

The following non-GAAP ratios are important measures used by management in evaluating the Trust’s underlying operating performance and debt management. These non-GAAP ratios are not defined by IFRS Accounting Standards and do not have standard meanings. The Trust’s method of calculating non-GAAP ratios may differ from other issuers’ methods and, accordingly, the Trust’s non-GAAP ratios may not be comparable with similar measures presented by other issuers.

FFO and AFFO payout ratios

The FFO and AFFO payout ratios are calculated as monthly distributions, which exclude special distributions, declared to unitholders divided by FFO and AFFO (non-GAAP 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 unitholders.

FFO payout ratio[A]/[B]58 %63 %
AFFO payout ratio[A]/[C]60 %67 %

Interest coverage ratio

The interest coverage ratio is calculated on a 12-month trailing basis using Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP performance measure) divided by net interest expense. Granite believes the interest coverage ratio is useful in evaluating the Trust’s ability to meet its interest expense obligations (see “LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Debt Structure”).

Indebtedness ratio

The indebtedness ratio is calculated as total debt (a non-GAAP performance measure) divided by Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP performance measure) and Granite believes it is useful in evaluating the Trust’s ability to repay outstanding debt using its operating cash flows (see “LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Debt Structure”).

Leverage and net leverage ratios

The leverage ratio is calculated as total debt (a non-GAAP performance measure) divided by the fair value of investment properties (excluding assets held for sale) while the net leverage ratio subtracts cash and cash equivalents from total debt. The leverage ratio and net leverage ratio are supplemental measures that Granite believes are useful in evaluating the Trust’s
Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 55


degree of financial leverage, borrowing capacity and the relative strength of its balance sheet (see “LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Debt Structure”).

Unencumbered asset coverage ratio

The unencumbered asset coverage ratio is calculated as the carrying value of investment properties (excluding assets held for sale) that are not encumbered by secured debt divided by the carrying value of total unsecured debt and is a supplemental measure that Granite believes is useful in evaluating the Trust’s degree of asset coverage provided by its unencumbered investment properties to total unsecured debt (see “LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Debt Structure”).

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS Accounting Standards requires management to apply judgment and make estimates that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated combined financial statements. Management bases estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the values of assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates. However, actual results could be materially different from those estimates and require an adjustment to the recognized amounts in the period of change.

The Trust’s material accounting policies that involve the most judgment and estimates are as follows:

Judgments

Leases

The Trust’s policy for revenue recognition is described in note 2(j) of the audited consolidated combined financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Trust makes judgments in determining whether certain leases are operating or finance leases, in particular tenant leases with long contractual terms or leases where the property is a large square-footage and/or architecturally specialized. The Trust also makes judgments in determining the lease term for some lease contracts in which it is a lessee that include renewal or termination options. The assessment of whether the Trust is reasonably certain to exercise such options impacts the lease term which, in turn, significantly affects the amount of lease obligations and right-of-use assets recognized.

Investment properties

The Trust’s policy relating to investment properties is described in note 2(d) of the audited consolidated combined financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. In applying this policy, judgment is used in determining whether certain costs incurred for tenant improvements are additions to the carrying amount of the property or represent incentives, identifying the point at which practical completion of properties under development occurs and determining borrowing costs to be capitalized to the carrying value of properties under development. Judgment is also applied in determining the use, extent and frequency of independent appraisals.

56 Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report


Income taxes

The Trust applies judgment in determining whether it will continue to qualify as a REIT for both Canadian and United States tax purposes for the foreseeable future. However, should it at some point no longer qualify, it would be subject to income tax and would be required to recognize current and deferred income taxes.

Estimates and Assumptions

Valuation of investment properties

The fair value of investment properties was determined by management using primarily the discounted cash flow method in which the income and expenses are projected over the anticipated term of the investment plus a reversionary value discounted back to present value using an appropriate discount rate. The Trust obtains, from time to time, appraisals from independent qualified real estate valuation experts. Granite does not value its investment properties based on these appraisals but uses them as data points, alongside other external market information for management to arrive at its own conclusions on values. Granite receives valuation assumptions from external appraisers such as discount rates, terminal capitalization rates and market rental rates, however, the Trust also considers its knowledge of historical renewal experiences with its tenants, its understanding of certain specialized aspects of Granite’s portfolio and tenant profile, and its knowledge of the current condition of the properties to determine proprietary market leasing assumptions, including lease renewal probabilities, renewal rents and capital expenditures. The critical assumptions relating to the Trust’s estimates of fair values of investment properties include the contractual rents, contractual renewal terms, expected future market rental rates, discount rates that reflect current market uncertainties, capitalization rates and recent investment property prices. If there is any change in these assumptions or regional, national or international economic conditions, the fair value of investment properties may change materially. There has been no change in the valuation methodology used during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Refer to the “INVESTMENT PROPERTIES” section and note 3 of the unaudited condensed consolidated combined financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 for further information on the estimates and assumptions made by management in connection with the fair values of investment properties.

Fair value of financial instruments

Where the fair value of financial assets or liabilities recorded on the unaudited condensed consolidated combined balance sheet or disclosed in the notes cannot be derived from active markets, it is determined using valuation techniques including the discounted cash flow method. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible but, where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair values. The judgments include considerations of inputs such as credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could materially affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.

Income taxes

The Trust operates in a number of countries and is subject to the income tax laws and related tax treaties in each of its operating jurisdictions. These laws and treaties can be subject to different interpretations by relevant taxation authorities. Significant judgment is required in the estimation of Granite’s income tax expense, interpretation and application of the relevant tax
Granite REIT 2025 First Quarter Report 57


laws and treaties and the provision for any exposure that may arise from tax positions that are under audit by relevant taxation authorities.

The recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets or liabilities is dependent on management’s estimate of future taxable profits and income tax rates that are expected to be in effect in the period the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Any changes in management’s estimates can result in changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities as reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated combined balance sheets and also the deferred income tax expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated combined statements of net income.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS AND DEVELOPMENTS

Future Changes in Accounting Standards

IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, to achieve comparability of the financial performance of similar entities. The standard, which replaces IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, impacts the presentation of primary financial statements and notes, including the statement of profit or loss where entities will be required to present separate categories of income and expense for operating, investing, and financing activities with prescribed subtotals for each new category. The standard also requires aggregation and disaggregation of information, and disclosure of management-defined performance measures in the notes to the financial statements. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 and is to be applied retrospectively, with early adoption permitted.

The Trust is currently assessing the impact of IFRS 18 on its consolidated financial statements.

INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

During the first quarter of 2025, there were no changes in the Trust’s internal controls over financial reporting that had materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the internal controls over financial reporting.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Investing in the Trust’s units involves a high degree of risk. There are a number of risk factors that could have a material adverse effect on Granite’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. These risks and uncertainties are discussed in Granite’s AIF filed with securities regulators in Canada and available online at www.sedarplus.ca and Annual Report on Form 40-F filed with the SEC and available online on EDGAR at www.sec.gov, each in respect of the year ended December 31, 2024 and remain substantially unchanged in respect of the three month period ended March 31, 2025, except for the following:

Unpredictable Global Trade and Tariff Environment

Recent trade measures implemented by the current U.S. administration have contributed to a volatile and unpredictable trade environment by imposing or expanding tariffs and in some cases, modifying or suspending some of the tariffs recently imposed. The breadth, timing, duration, and financial impact of these tariffs remain highly unpredictable, making it difficult to assess their ultimate impact on global trade and supply chains. These trade actions, along with potential retaliatory measures by other countries, may result in higher input and operational costs for certain of Granite’s tenants, particularly those engaged in manufacturing (including the automotive sector and Granite’s tenant Magna). The tariffs may also negatively affect consumer demand and global distribution flows, thereby impacting certain of Granite’s tenants engaged in e-commerce, distribution and warehousing, and in particular, those tenants that export to the U.S. These risks, among others, could have a material adverse effect on certain of Granite’s tenants, including their ability to enter into new leasing transactions or to satisfy rental payments under existing leases, and, in turn, on Granite’s profitability and financial condition. Further, recent tariff and trade measures have triggered volatility in capital markets, reflecting a broader concern about sustained inflation and the potential of an economic recession across all of Granite’s markets which has the potential to impact the value of Granite’s properties and the availability or terms of future financing options, as disclosed in Granite’s prior filings.

(1)    Effective October 1, 2024, and in accordance with REALPAC Guidelines, Granite amended its definition of Funds From Operations (FFO) to exclude foreign exchange (gains) losses on certain monetary items not forming part of a net investment in a foreign operation that represent capital transactions impacting profit and loss (refer to “NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES”). For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the losses relate to the de-designation of the 2024 Term Loan and the related forward contract hedging its maturity.
(2)    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-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES”). Granite views these restructuring costs as non-recurring, as they are solely related to this specific transaction and do not reflect normal operating activities.
