Certain statements in this presentation may constitute "forward-looking" statements which involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of WPT Industrial Real Estate Investment Trust (“WPT REIT” or the “REIT"), or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. When used in this presentation, such statements use such words as "may", "would", "could", "will", "intend", "expect", "believe", "plan", "anticipate", "estimate" and other similar terminology. These statements reflect the REIT's current expectations regarding future events and
funds, the current or future status of the REIT’s Unitholder Rights Plan Agreement, the REIT’s future growth potential and other prospects and opportunities, results of operations, demographic and industry trends and future legislative and regulatory approaches with respect to matters affecting the REIT and speak only as of the date of this presentation. Forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, which include, but are not limited to the factors discussed under “Forward-Looking Statements” and "Risk Factors" in the REIT’s annual information form for the year ended December 31, 2014, the “AIF” and should not be read as guarantees of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of whether or not such results will be achieved. Forward looking statements are necessarily broad on a number of estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by management of the REIT as of the date of this presentation, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies; therefore, the REIT cannot assure investors that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made as
This presentation does not constitute or form part of any offer for sale or solicitation of any offer to buy or subscribe for any securities nor shall it or any part of it form the basis of or be relied on in connection with, or act as any inducement to enter into, any contract or commitment whatsoever. The information contained in this presentation concerning the REIT and its affiliates does not purport to be all-inclusive or to contain all the information that a prospective purchaser or investor may desire to have in evaluating whether or not to make an investment in the REIT. The information is qualified entirely by reference to the AIF. This presentation includes certain financial measures such as funds from operations (“FFO”), adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) and net operating income (“NOI”) that are not measures recognized under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS. FFO, AFFO and NOI are supplemental measures of a Canadian real estate investment trust’s performance and the REIT believes they are relevant measures of the ability of the REIT to earn and distribute cash returns to investors in the Units and to evaluate the REIT’s performance. The IFRS measurement most directly comparable to FFO, AFFO and NOI is net income. Tables reconciling such non- IFRS financial measures are available in this presentation and in the AIF.
