TORONTO, Jan. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — European Residential Real Estate Investment Trust (TSX: ERE.UN, “ERES”) is pleased to announce that the trustees of ERES have declared the January 2025 monthly cash distribution of €0.005 per Unit and Class B LP Unit (the “January 2025 Distribution”), being equivalent to €0.06 per Unit annualized. The distribution will be payable to holders of the Units and Class B LP Units (the “Unitholders”) of record on January 31, 2025, with payment on February 18, 2025.
The Euro-denominated distribution will be paid in Canadian dollars based on the exchange rate on the date of payment (estimated C$0.01474 per Unit and Class B LP Unit). Registered Unitholders will be provided with an option to elect to receive such distribution in Euros rather than Canadian dollars. If no such election is made, registered Unitholders will be paid the distribution in Canadian dollars based on the above exchange rate mechanism. Beneficial Unitholders will not have an option to elect to receive the distribution in Euros.
As previously announced in ERES’s press release dated December 16, 2024, the Distribution Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”) is terminated effective January 16, 2025, and is not available for ERES’s monthly distributions paid on and after January 16, 2025. The monthly distribution in respect of December 2024, with a record date of December 31, 2024 and payment on January 15, 2025, was the last distribution eligible for the DRIP.
The final monthly cash distribution in respect of December 2024 was C$0.01474 per Unit and Class B LP Unit. The final special cash distribution, as declared in ERES’s press release dated December 16, 2024, was C$1.49426 per Unit and Class B LP Unit. The special distribution did not qualify for the DRIP. Please refer to ERES’s press release dated December 16, 2024 for additional details.
ERES intends to continue to make regular monthly distributions, subject to the discretion of the ERES Board of Trustees. ERES Limited Partnership will make corresponding cash distributions to holders of Class B LP Units.
