Primaris REIT Completes $154 Million Strategic Disposition and Provides Financing Update

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Primaris Real Estate Investment Trust (“Primaris” or the “REIT”) (TSX: PMZ.UN) announced today progress on its disposition program that supports its capital recycling objectives.

Northland Disposition

On December 19, 2025, Primaris completed the sale of Northland Village and Northland Professional Centre (“Northland”) in Calgary, Alberta, for $154.0 million, to a Canadian institutional investor. Northland Village, a recently redeveloped, high quality, open air centre, is anchored by Walmart, Winners, Best Buy, GoodLife, Dollarama, and Spinelli Italian Centre Shop, a specialty grocery store and restaurant. Situated in an affluent trade area in northwest Calgary, Northland attracted strong interest from a broad pool of buyers.

“Primaris is very pleased to close out the year with the strategic disposition of Northland, continuing to demonstrate our track record of disciplined capital allocation and capital recycling,” said Alex Avery, Chief Executive Officer. “Executing $400 million of non-core asset sales in 2025 underscores Primaris’ commitment to maintain a best-in-class balance sheet while continuing to leverage the competitive advantage our management platform provides, for acquiring, owning, and managing market leading Canadian malls.”

Northland was sold at IFRS fair value, with proceeds allocated to the repayment of debt, repurchase, and cancellation of units under the REIT’s normal course issuer bid, and general trust purposes.

Northland Village and Northland Professional Centre were both unencumbered at the time of sale.

Primaris maintains its 2025 and 2026 guidance, as this disposition was fully anticipated.

In addition, Primaris extended the term of its $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility by one year to January 4, 2029, and achieved a 0.15% reduction in the variable interest rate on the facility from either: (i) 0.35% over Prime to 0.20% over Prime, or (ii) 1.35% over Adjusted Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (“CORRA”) to 1.20% over Adjusted CORRA.
