Q2 2023 Highlights

• Vesta announced the closing of its Initial Public Offering (IPO) in the United States on July 5, 2023, of 14,375,000 American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”), representing 143,750,000 common shares at US$ 31.00 per ADS. The gross proceeds were approximately US$ 445.6 million, which the Company will use to fund its growth strategy.
• Vesta has updated its full year 2023 guidance: revenue guidance has been upwardly revised to a range of between 17-18% from the Company’s prior guidance of 13-14%, Adjusted NOI margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin guidance remains at 93.0% and 82.0%, respectively. This reflects Vesta´s significant progress on its Level 3 strategy in a continued strong demand environment.ⁱ
• Second quarter 2023 leasing activity reached 1.6 million sf; 891,687 sf in new contracts with best-in-class companies such as Eaton, Sumitomo, and Iron Mountain, among others, and 769,054 sf in lease renewals. Vesta’s second quarter 2023 stabilized occupancy therefore increased to 96.9% from 95.9% in second quarter 2022, while total portfolio occupancy closed at 94.7% and same store occupancy at 96.7%.
• Vesta delivered 831,309 sf during the second quarter 2023, with a weighted average occupancy of 60%. During the quarter the Company began construction on one 214,760 sf BTS building in Queretaro for Eaton Corporation. Vesta´s total development pipeline reached 3.2 million sf as of the second quarter 2023, with a US$ 205.6 million expected investment and a 10.0% average cap rate.
• Vesta delivered US$ 51.9 million in revenue for the second quarter 2023; a 20.5% year on year increase from US$ 43.1 million in the second quarter 2022, primarily due to US$ 6.6 million in new revenue-generating contracts and a US$ 2.2 million inflationary benefit on second quarter 2023 results. Second quarter 2023 Adjusted NOI and EBITDA margins reached 93.5% and 82.5%, respectively.

• Second quarter 2023 Adjusted Net Operating Income (Adjusted NOI) increased 19.4% to US$ 48.5 million, compared to US$ 40.7 million in second quarter 2022. The second quarter 2023 Adjusted NOI margin was 93.5%; an 86-basis-point year on year decrease due to higher costs at rent-generating properties.
• Second quarter 2023 Adjusted EBITDA increased 17.5% to US$ 42.8 million, as compared to US$ 36.4 million in the second quarter 2022. The Adjusted EBITDA margin was 82.5%; a 207-basis-point decrease is primarily due to the peso appreciation versus last year, which in turn impacted Vesta´s employee’s benefits, auditing, legal and consulting expenses, and an increase in employee long-term incentive plan during second quarter 2023.
• Second quarter Vesta funds from operations (Vesta FFO) increased by 26.7% to US$ 31.0 million, from US$ 24.5 million in 2022. Vesta FFO per share was US$ 0.0447 for the second quarter 2023, compared with US$ 0.0356 for the same period in 2022; a 25.4% increase. Second quarter 2023 FFO attributable to common share was US$ 9.6 million, compared to US$ 12.2 million in the second quarter 2022, due to increased income tax expenses in the second quarter 2023 resulting from a higher exchange rate related current tax in second quarter 2023.
• Second quarter 2023 total comprehensive gain was US$ 95.6 million, versus US$ 50.4 million in the second quarter 2022. This increase was primarily due to increased second quarter 2023 revenues and a higher gain on the revaluation of investment properties.
• The total value of Vesta’s investment property portfolio was US$ 2.92 billion as of June 30, 2023; a 6.7% increase compared to US$ 2.74 billion at the end of December 31, 2022.
