FY24 GUIDANCE

AFFO

FIBRA Macquarie is reaffirming its FY24 AFFO per certificate guidance of Ps. 2.55 to Ps. 2.60.

The FY24 AFFO guidance equates to a range of US$116 million to US$120 million, representing an annual increase of between 6% and 8% in underlying USD terms.

FIBRAMQ maintains a positive 2024 outlook on operational performance translating to increased revenue and NOI which is expected to be offset by a combination of the continued impact of Peso appreciation relative to the US Dollar, as well as the financing costs of near-term investments in FIBRAMQ’s industrial growth capex program, which is expected to incrementally contribute to revenue and AFFO growth upon stabilization of each development project. This guidance assumes:

Cash Distribution

FIBRAMQ is reaffirming guidance for cash distributions in FY24 of Ps. 2.10 per certificate, paid in equal quarterly instalments of Ps. 0.5250 per certificate.

The FY24 cash distribution guidance equates to approximately US$97.4 million, representing an annual increase for scheduled distributions of 8.6% in underlying USD terms.

The guidance implies an expected FY24 AFFO payout ratio of approximately 82%, based on the AFFO guidance midpoint. The payment of distributions is subject to the approval of the Manager, stable market conditions and prudent management of FIBRAMQ’s capital position.

Outstanding certificates

FIBRA Macquarie had 797,311,397 outstanding certificates as of March 31, 2024.
