• Second quarter 2024 revenue reached US$ 63.0 million; a 22.4% year on year increase from US$ 51.5 million in the second quarter 2023 primarily due to US$ 8.9 million in new revenue-generating contracts and a US$ 1.9 million inflationary benefit on second quarter 2024 results.
• Second quarter 2024 Adjusted Net Operating Income (Adjusted NOI) increased 19.6% to US$ 57.8 million, compared to US$ 48.3 million in the second quarter 2023. The second quarter 2024 Adjusted NOI margin was 94.7%; a 77-basis-point year on year decrease due to increased property-related costs.
• Second quarter 2024 Adjusted EBITDA increased 17.9% to US$ 50.2 million, as compared to US$ 42.6 million in the second quarter 2023. The Adjusted EBITDA margin was 82.3%; a 188-basis-point decrease primarily due to increased administrative expenses during the quarter.
• Second quarter 2024 Vesta funds from operations (Vesta FFO) increased by 23.2% to US$ 37.9 million, from US$ 30.8 million in 2023. Vesta FFO per share was US$ 0.0428 for the second quarter 2024 compared with US$ 0.0443 for the same period in 2023; a 3.4% decrease resulting from an increase in interest expenses for the quarter. Second quarter 2024 Vesta FFO excluding current tax was US$ 20.1 million compared to US$ 9.3 million in the second quarter 2023, due to higher profit and lower current taxes in the second quarter 2024 relative to the same period in 2023.
• Second quarter 2024 total comprehensive gain was US$ 109.0 million, versus US$ 98.6 million in the second quarter 2023. This increase was primarily due to increased revenues and a higher gain on the revaluation of investment properties during the quarter.
