TORONTO, Sept. 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nexus Industrial REIT (\u201cNexus\u201d or the \u201cREIT\u201d) (TSX: NXR.UN) is pleased to announce the sale of its 50% ownership interest in six office buildings located in Montreal with gross leasable area of 143,223 square feet (the \u201cProperties\u201d).<\/p>\n

\u201cThe sale of these legacy office buildings furthers our strategy as a Canada-focused pure-play industrial REIT\u201d <\/em>said Kelly Hanczyk, CEO of Nexus Industrial REIT.<\/p>\n

\u201cIndustrial assets now contribute 94% of our NOI on a proforma basis, and our industrial concentration will rise as we complete the disposition of our remaining legacy office and retail portfolios over the coming months. Combined with the sale of certain non-core industrial assets, we are targeting asset sales of approximately $110 million in the second half of 2024.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The REIT intends to use the net proceeds, after repayment of the existing first mortgages related to the Properties, to repay existing indebtedness on its credit facility.<\/p>\n
