Marketwired Canada


(TSX VENTURE:GAZ.UN) - Fronsac Real Estate Investment Trust ("Fronsac REIT" or
"Fronsac") today released its audited consolidated financial statements for the
year ended December 31st, 2013. 


For the financial year ended December 31, 2013, Fronsac reported funds from
operations ("FFO") of $581,977, an increase of 113% over the year of 2012
($273,456 in 2012). For the year 2013, FFO per unit was 1.77 cents (1.73 cents
per unit diluted), compared to 1.30 cents per unit for the year ended December
31, 2012 (1.30 cents per unit diluted), an increase of 36% over the year 2012.
The acquisitions completed in 2013 mainly explain the strong increase in the
FFO.  


Fronsac reported FFO of $119,269 for the three months ended December 31, 2013,
an increase of 261% over the same period in the prior year ($33,078 in 2012).
FFO per unit was 0.36 cents for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 (0.35 cents
per unit diluted) compared to 0.15 cents per unit for the quarter ended December
31, 2012 (0.15 cents per unit diluted), an increase of 140% over Q4 2012. The
acquisitions mentioned above mainly explain the strong increase in the FFO.


Michel Lassonde President and CEO said: "We are very pleased with our
performance and growth for the quarter and the year. Our performance for 2013
has led to an annual distribution increase for 2014 from 1.35 cents to 1.48
cents cents per unit. This represents the third consecutive annual distribution
increase for Fronsac. Fronsac's success is a confirmation of our business
strategy and solid financial structure."


For its 2013 financial year, Fronsac recorded a net profit attributable to
unitholders of $1,250,170 or 3.81 cents per unit compared to a net profit of
$1,062,419 or 5.06 cents per unit for 2012. Profit was mainly affected by the
same factors affecting FFO as well as non-cash gains of $575,903 (2012: 999,361)
and $97,896 (2012: nil) related to the increase in value of the investment
properties recorded respectively in the accounts of "Investment properties" and
"Investment in joint-ventures".

and 2012 as well as for the quarters ending at the same dates are presented in
