Here are the key takeaways from Dream Industrial Real Estate Invest Trst’s conference call:

• Comparative-property NOI grew 8.5% and diluted FFO per unit rose about 3.8% year over year to $0.28, with organic growth and venture income offsetting higher refinancing costs. Dream Industrial reiterated its 2026 outlook, expecting NOI growth at the high end of its 7%–8% range and FFO per unit slightly above the midpoint of $1.08–$1.10.
• Leasing remained strong: year-to-date leases across the wholly owned portfolio achieved a 22.9% weighted-average spread, while leases signed since the start of Q3 achieved a 32.4% spread. Canadian occupancy was 95.5%, up 200 basis points year over year, and management cited improving demand and lower incentives in several markets.
• The REIT has completed CAD 569 million of acquisitions this year and is expanding its private-venture platform, which management expects to generate more than CAD 16 million in annualized net property-management margin by year-end. Development leasing is progressing, with expected unlevered yields on cost of about 8% for wholly owned projects and 7%–7.5% for prospective U.K. small- and mid-bay projects.
• Leverage ended the quarter at 38.5%, with net debt to EBITDA of 7.3 times, while roughly CAD 400 million of debt refinanced over the past year carried rates about 260 basis points higher. Management expects leverage to remain in the high-30% range near term and emphasized organic deleveraging amid rising long-term rates and macro uncertainty.
• A Québec tenant is operating and current on rent while under CCAA protection; management said the property’s power capacity and suitability for other users help protect its value, but the tenant’s future remains uncertain. The REIT is monitoring the situation and could consider a user sale if the space is returned.
