NATURE AND DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST | |
NATURE AND DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST | 1. NATURE AND DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST Effective January 3, 2013, Granite Real Estate Inc. (“Granite Co.”) completed its conversion from a corporate structure to a stapled unit real estate investment trust (“REIT”) structure. All of the common shares of Granite Co. were exchanged, on a one-for-one Business Corporations Act The stapled units trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange and on the New York Stock Exchange. The principal office of Granite REIT is 77 King Street West, Suite 4010, P.O. Box 159, Toronto-Dominion Centre, Toronto, Ontario, M5K 1H1, Canada. The registered office of Granite GP is Suite 2600, Three Bentall Centre, 595 Burrard Street, P.O. Box 49314, Vancouver, British Columbia, V7X 1L3, Canada. The Trust is a Canadian-based REIT engaged in the acquisition, development, ownership and management of logistics, warehouse and industrial properties in North America and Europe. These combined financial statements were approved by the Board of Trustees of Granite REIT and Board of Directors of Granite GP on March 9, 2022. |

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies described below were applied consistently to all periods presented in these combined financial statements. (a) Basis of Presentation and Statement of Compliance The combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). (b) Combined Financial Statements and Basis of Consolidation As a result of the REIT conversion described in note 1, the Trust does not have a single parent; however, each unit of Granite REIT and each share of Granite GP trade as a single stapled unit and accordingly, Granite REIT and Granite GP have identical ownership. Therefore, these financial statements have been prepared on a combined basis whereby the assets, liabilities and results of Granite GP and Granite REIT have been combined. The combined financial statements include the subsidiaries of Granite GP and Granite REIT. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated by Granite GP or Granite REIT from the date of acquisition, being the date on which control is obtained. The subsidiaries continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. Control exists when Granite GP or Granite REIT have power, exposure or rights to variable returns and the ability to use their power over the entity to affect the amount of returns it generates. All intercompany balances, income and expenses and unrealized gains and losses resulting from intercompany transactions are eliminated. (c) Trust Units The stapled units are redeemable at the option of the holder and, therefore, are required to be accounted for as financial liabilities, except where certain exemption conditions are met, in which case redeemable instruments may be classified as equity. The attributes of the stapled units meet the exemption conditions set out in IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation (d) Investment Properties The Trust accounts for its investment properties, which include income-producing properties, properties under development and land held for development, in accordance with IAS 40, Investment Property Income-Producing Properties The carrying value of income-producing properties includes the impact of straight-line rental revenue (note 2(l)), tenant incentives and deferred leasing costs since these amounts are incorporated in the determination of the fair value of income-producing properties. When an income-producing property is disposed of, the gain or loss is determined as the difference between the disposal proceeds, net of selling costs, and the carrying amount of the property and is recognized in net income in the period of disposal. Properties Under Development The Trust’s development properties are classified as such until the property is substantially completed and available for occupancy. The initial cost of properties under development includes the acquisition cost of the land and direct development or expansion costs, including construction costs, borrowing costs and indirect costs wholly attributable to development. Borrowing costs are capitalized to projects under development or construction based on the average accumulated expenditures outstanding during the period multiplied by the Trust’s average borrowing rate on existing debt. Where borrowings are associated with specific developments, the amount capitalized is the gross borrowing cost incurred on such borrowings less any investment income arising on temporary investment of these borrowings. The capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended if there are prolonged periods that development activity is interrupted. The Trust capitalizes direct and indirect costs, including property taxes and insurance of the development property, if activities necessary to ready the development property for its intended use are in progress. Costs of internal personnel and other indirect costs that are wholly attributable to a project are capitalized as incurred. If considered reliably measurable (e) Business Combinations The Trust accounts for property acquisitions as a business combination if the particular assets and set of activities acquired can be operated and managed as a business in their current state for the purpose of providing a return to the unitholders. In accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations The Trust recognizes any non-controlling acquisition-by-acquisition non-controlling Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred. Any contingent consideration is recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of contingent consideration that is recorded as an asset or liability is recognized in net income. Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the fair value of non-controlling (f) Assets Held for Sale Non-current (g) Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of the Trust’s foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case, for material transactions, the exchange rates at the dates of those transactions are used. Exchange differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity. In preparing the financial statements of each entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the average rates of exchange prevailing in the period. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary Non-monetary • The effective portion of exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks are recognized in other comprehensive income; • Exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net investment in the foreign operation) are recognized in other comprehensive income; and • Exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings related to capitalized interest for assets under construction are recognized in investment properties. (h) Financial Instruments and Hedging Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities The following summarizes the Trust’s classification and measurement basis of its financial assets and liabilities: Classification and Measurement Basis Financial assets Construction funds in escrow Amortized Cost Long-term receivables included in other assets Amortized Cost Cross currency interest rate swaps Fair Value Loan receivable Amortized Cost Accounts receivable Amortized Cost Foreign exchange derivative contracts Fair Value Cash and cash equivalents Amortized Cost Financial liabilities Unsecured debentures, net Amortized Cost Unsecured term loans, net Amortized Cost Secured debt Amortized Cost Cross currency interest rate swaps Fair Value Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Amortized Cost Foreign exchange derivative contracts Fair Value Distributions payable Amortized Cost The Trust recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses (“ECL”) for financial assets measured at amortized cost. The impact of the credit loss modeling process is summarized as follow: • The Trust did not record an ECL allowance against long-term receivables as historical experience of loss on these balances is insignificant and, based on the assessment of forward-looking information, no significant increases in losses are expected. The Trust will continue to assess the valuation of these instruments. • The Trust did not record an ECL allowance against accounts receivable and has determined that its internal processes of evaluating each receivable on a specific basis for collectability using historical experience and adjusted for forward-looking information, would appropriately allow the Trust to determine if there are significant increases in credit risk to then record a corresponding ECL allowance. For financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, the liability is amortized using the effective interest rate method. Under the effective interest rate method, any transaction fees, costs, discounts and premiums directly related to the financial liabilities are recognized in net income over the expected life of the obligation. In regards to modifications to financial liabilities, when a financial liability measured at amortized cost is modified or exchanged, and such modification or exchange does not result in derecognition, the adjustment to the amortized cost of the financial liability as a result of the modification or exchange is recognized in net income. Derivatives and Hedging Derivative instruments, such as the cross currency interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts and collars, are recorded in the combined balance sheet at fair value, including those derivatives that are embedded in financial or non-financial The Trust applies hedge accounting to certain derivative and non-derivative (i) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. (j) Fixed Assets Fixed assets include computer hardware and software, furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements, which are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the fixed assets, which typically range from 3 5 right-of-use Leases. right-of-use (k) Leases The Trust recognizes a right-of-use Leases. right-of-use right-of-use right-of-use The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, at the Trust’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Trust uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The lease obligation is subsequently increased by the interest cost on the lease liability and decreased by lease payments made. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, a change in the estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee or, as appropriate, a change in the assessment of whether a purchase or extension option is reasonably certain to be exercised or a termination option is reasonably certain not to be exercised. (l) Revenue Recognition Where Granite has retained substantially all the benefits and risks of ownership of its rental properties, leases with its tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Where substantially all the benefits and risks of ownership of the Trust’s rental properties have been transferred to its tenants, the Trust’s leases are accounted for as finance leases. All of the Trust’s current leases are operating leases. Revenue from investment properties include base rents earned from tenants under lease agreements, property tax and operating cost recoveries and other incidental income. Rents from tenants may contain rent escalation clauses or free rent periods which are recognized in revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The difference between the revenue recognized and the contractual rent is included in investment properties as straight-line rents receivable. In addition, tenant incentives including cash allowances provided to tenants are recognized as a reduction in rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease where it is determined that the tenant fixturing has no benefit to the property beyond the existing tenancy. Property tax and operating cost recoveries from tenants are recognized as revenue in the period in which applicable costs are incurred. (m) Unit-Based Compensation Plans Incentive Stock Option Plan Compensation expense for option grants is based on the fair value of the options at the grant date and is recognized over the period from the grant date to the date the award is vested. A liability is recognized for outstanding options based upon the fair value as the Trust is an open-ended trust making its units redeemable. During the period in which options are outstanding, the liability is adjusted for changes in the fair value with such adjustments being recognized as compensation expense in general and administrative expenses in the period in which they occur. The liability balance is reduced as options are exercised and recorded in equity as stapled units along with the proceeds received on exercise. Executive Deferred Stapled Unit Plan The executive deferred stapled unit plan is measured at fair value at the date of grant and amortized to compensation expense from the effective date of the grant to the final vesting date. Compensation expense is recognized on a proportionate basis consistent with the vesting features of each tranche of the grant. Compensation expense for executive deferred stapled units granted under the plan is recognized in general and administrative expenses with a corresponding liability recognized based upon the fair value of the Trust’s stapled units as the Trust is an open-ended trust making its units redeemable. During the period in which the executive deferred stapled units are outstanding, for grants with no performance criteria, the liability is adjusted for changes in the market value of the Trust’s stapled unit, and for grants with performance criteria the liability is measured at fair value using the Monte Carlo simulation model (note 12), with both such adjustments being recognized as compensation expense in general and administrative expenses in the period in which they occur. The liability balance is reduced as deferred stapled units are settled for stapled units and recorded in equity. Director/Trustee Deferred Share Unit Plan The compensation expense and a corresponding liability associated with the director/trustee deferred share unit plan is measured based on the market value of the underlying stapled units. During the period in which the awards are outstanding, the liability is adjusted for changes in the market value of the underlying stapled unit, with such positive or negative adjustments being recognized in general and administrative expenses in the period in which they occur. The liability balance is settled for cash when a director/trustee ceases to be a member of the Board. (n) Income Taxes Operations in Canada Granite qualifies as a mutual fund trust under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Act”) and as such the Trust itself will not be subject to income taxes provided it continues to qualify as a REIT for purposes of the Act. A REIT is not taxable and not considered to be a Specified Investment Flow-through Trust provided it complies with certain tests and it distributes all of its taxable income in a taxation year to its unitholders. The Trust’s qualification as a REIT results in no current or deferred income tax being recognized in the combined financial statements for income taxes related to the Canadian investment properties. Operations in the United States The Trust’s investment property operations in the United States are conducted in a qualifying United States REIT (“US REIT”) for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a qualifying US REIT, it is not taxable provided it complies with certain tests in addition to the requirement to distribute substantially all of its taxable income. As a qualifying US REIT, current income taxes on U.S. taxable income have not been recorded in the combined financial statements. However, the Trust has recorded deferred income taxes that may arise on the disposition of its investment properties as the Trust will likely be subject to entity level income tax in connection with such transactions pursuant to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act. Operations in Europe The Trust consolidates certain entities that continue to be subject to income tax. Income taxes for taxable entities in Europe, as well as other entities in Canada or the United States subject to tax, are recorded as follows: Current Income Tax The current income tax expense is determined on the basis of enacted or substantively enacted tax rates and laws at each balance sheet date. Deferred Income Tax Deferred income tax is recorded, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the amounts reported on the combined financial statements. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that deductions, tax credits or tax losses will be utilized. Each of the current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they are levied by the same taxation authority in either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities within the same reporting group that settle on a net basis. (o) Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of the combined financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures made in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the judgments, estimates and assumptions utilized in preparing the combined financial statements are reasonable and prudent; however, actual results could be materially different and require an adjustment to the reported results. Judgments The following are the critical judgments that have been made in applying the Trust’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the combined financial statements: (i) Leases The Trust’s policy for revenue recognition is described in note 2(l). The Trust makes judgments in determining whether certain leases are operating or finance leases, in particular tenant leases with long contractual terms or leases where the property is a large square-footage and/or architecturally specialized. The Trust also makes judgments in determining the lease term for some lease contracts in which it is a lessee that include renewal or termination options. The assessment of whether the Trust is reasonably certain to exercise such options impacts the lease term which, in turn, significantly affects the amount of lease obligations and right-of-use (ii) Investment properties The Trust’s policy relating to investment properties is described in note 2(d). In applying this policy, judgment is used in determining whether certain costs incurred for tenant improvements are additions to the carrying amount of the property or represent incentives, identifying the point at which practical completion of properties under development occurs and determining borrowing costs to be capitalized to the carrying value of properties under development. Judgment is also applied in determining the use, extent and frequency of independent appraisals. (iii) Income taxes The Trust applies judgment in determining whether it will continue to qualify as a REIT for both Canadian and U.S. tax purposes for the foreseeable future. However, should it at some point no longer qualify, it would be subject to income tax and would be required to recognize current and deferred income taxes. Estimates and Assumptions The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities include the following: (i) Valuation of investment properties The fair value of investment properties is determined by management using primarily the discounted cash flow method in which the income and expenses are projected over the anticipated term of the investment plus a terminal value discounted using an appropriate discount rate. The Trust obtains, from time to time, appraisals from independent qualified real estate valuation experts. However, the Trust does not measure its investment properties based on these appraisals but uses them as data points, together with other external market information accumulated by management, in arriving at its own conclusions on values. Management uses valuation assumptions such as discount rates, terminal capitalization rates and market rental rates applied in external appraisals or sourced from valuation experts; however, the Trust also uses its historical renewal experience with tenants, its direct knowledge of the specialized nature of certain of Granite’s portfolio and tenant profile and the actual condition of the properties in making business judgments about lease renewal probabilities, renewal rents and capital expenditures. The critical assumptions relating to the Trust’s estimates of fair values of investment properties include the receipt of contractual rents, contractual renewal terms, expected future market rental rates, discount rates that reflect current market uncertainties, capitalization rates and recent investment property prices. If there is any change in these assumptions or regional, national or international economic conditions, the fair value of investment properties may change materially. Refer to note 4 for further information on the estimates and assumptions made by management. (ii) Fair value of financial instruments Where the fair value of financial assets or liabilities recorded on the balance sheet or disclosed in the notes cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using valuation techniques including the discounted cash flow method. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair values. The judgments include considerations of inputs such as credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could materially affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. (iii) Income taxes The Trust operates in a number of countries and is subject to the income tax laws and related tax treaties in each of its operating jurisdictions. These laws and treaties can be subject to different interpretations by relevant taxation authorities. Significant judgment is required in the estimation of Granite’s income tax expense, the interpretation and application of the relevant tax laws and treaties and the provision for any exposure that may arise from tax positions that are under audit by relevant taxation authorities. The recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets or liabilities is dependent on management’s estimate of future taxable profits and income tax rates that are expected to be in effect in the period the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Any changes in management’s estimate can result in changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities as reported in the combined balance sheets and also the deferred income tax expense in the combined statements of net income. (p) Future Accounting Policy Changes As at December 31, 2021, there are no new accounting standards issued but not yet applicable to the combined financial statements. (q) COVID-19 The coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) COVID-19 During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, there has not been any significant impact on Granite’s operations, assets or liabilities as a result of COVID-19. COVID-19. COVID-19 COVID-19 Granite continues to review its future cash flow projections and the valuation of its investment properties in light of the COVID-19 COVID-19 COVID-19 |

Fair values are primarily determined by discounting the expected future cash flows, generally over a term of 10 years, plus a terminal value based on the application of a capitalization rate to estimated year 11 cash flows. The fair values of properties under development are measured using a discounted cash flow model, net of costs to complete, as of the balance sheet date. The Trust measures its investment properties using valuations prepared by management. The Trust does not measure its investment properties based on valuations prepared by external appraisers but uses such external appraisals as data points, together with other external market information accumulated by management, in arriving at its own conclusions on values. Management uses valuation assumptions such as discount rates, terminal capitalization rates and market rental rates applied in external appraisals or sourced from valuation experts; however, the Trust also uses its historical renewal experience with tenants, its direct knowledge of the specialized nature of certain of Granite’s portfolio and tenant profile and its knowledge of the actual condition of the properties in making business judgments about lease renewal probabilities, renewal rents and capital expenditures. There has been no change in the valuation methodology during the year. Refer to note 2(q) for a discussion of the impact of the COVID-19 Included in investment properties is $35.7 million (December 31, 2020 — $27.2 million) of net straight-line rent receivables arising from the recognition of rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

NON-CURRENT ASSETS | 6. NON-CURRENT Construction Funds In Escrow On November 19, 2019, Granite acquired a developed property located at 1301 Chalk Hill Road, Dallas, Texas which had outstanding construction work. Consequently, $20.5 million (US$15.5 million) of the purchase price was placed in escrow to pay for the remaining construction costs. The funds are released from escrow as the construction is completed. As construction is completed, the construction costs are capitalized to the cost of the investment property. During the year ended December 31, 2021, $8.3 million (US$6.6 million) was released from escrow and capitalized to the property (note 4) (2020 — $8.6 million (US$6.3 million)). As at December 31, 2021, there was no outstanding balance in escrow (2020 — $8.4 million (US$6.6 million)). Loan Receivable During the year ended December 31, 2021, Granite advanced $10.5 million (US$8.3 million) by means of a loan to the developer of two industrial properties being constructed in Indiana, United States. The loan has a maximum draw amount of $69.6 million (US$55.0 million). The loan, due upon completion of the development which is expected to be in late 2022, is secured by the properties under construction and related land. On September 1, 2021, Granite entered into a purchase and sale agreement with the developer to acquire the two properties upon completion for $98.1 million (US$77.5 million) plus estimated leasing costs and sustainability features of $8.6 million (US$6.8 million), subject to customary closing conditions.

(b) The effective income tax rate reported in the combined statements of net income varies from the Canadian statutory rate for the following reasons: Years ended December 31, 2021 2020 Income before income taxes $1,550,839 $499,019 Expected income taxes at the Canadian statutory tax rate of 26.5% (2020 — 26.5%) $ 410,972 $ 132,240 Income distributed and taxable to unitholders (150,899 ) (57,791 ) Net foreign rate differentials (24,099 ) (9,954 ) Net change in provisions for uncertain tax positions (458 ) (784 ) Net permanent differences 176 (115 ) Net effect of change in tax rates 1,955 2,941 Withholding taxes and other 2,920 2,555 Income tax expense $ 240,567 $ 69,092 (c) Deferred tax assets and liabilities consist of temporary differences related to the following: As at December 31, 2021 2020 Deferred tax assets: Investment properties $ — $ 490 Eligible capital expenditures 1,964 2,111 Other 2,488 2,129 Deferred tax assets $ 4,452 $ 4,730 Deferred tax liabilities: Investment properties $ 609,418 $ 396,326 Withholding tax on undistributed subsidiary profits — 149 Other (4,751 ) (3,634 ) Deferred tax liabilities $ 604,667 $ 392,841 (d) Changes in the net deferred tax liabilities consist of the following: Years ended December 31, 2021 2020 Balance, beginning of year $ 388,111 $ 316,915 Deferred tax expense recognized in net income 228,948 62,501 Foreign currency translation of deferred tax balances (16,844 ) 8,695 Net deferred tax liabilities, end of year $ 600,215 $ 388,111 (e) Net cash payments of income taxes amounted to a payment of $8.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 (2020 — $5.7 million) which included $0.3 million of withholding taxes paid (2020 — $0.1 million). (f) The Trust conducts operations in a number of countries with varying statutory rates of taxation. Judgment is required in the estimation of income tax expense and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in each of the Trust’s operating jurisdictions. This process involves estimating actual current tax exposure, assessing temporary differences that result from the different treatments of items for tax and accounting purposes, assessing whether it is more likely than not that deferred income tax assets will be realized and, based on all the available evidence, determining if a provision is required on all or a portion of such deferred income tax assets. The Trust reports a liability for uncertain tax positions (‘‘unrecognized tax benefits’’) taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Trust recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As at December 31, 2021, the Trust had $10.5 million (2020 — $11.6 million) of unrecognized income tax benefits, (including $0.3 million (2020 — $0.3 million) related to accrued interest and penalties), all of which could ultimately reduce the Trust’s effective tax rate should these tax benefits become recognized. The Trust believes that it has adequately provided for reasonably foreseeable outcomes related to tax examinations and that any resolution will not have a material effect on the combined financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the Trust cannot predict with any level of certainty the exact nature of any future possible outcome. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows: As at December 31, 2021 2020 Unrecognized tax benefits balance, beginning of year $ 11,568 $ 11,422 Decreases for tax positions of prior years (2,085 ) (2,370 ) Increases for tax positions of current year 1,859 1,766 Foreign currency impact (872 ) 750 Unrecognized tax benefits balance, end of year $ 10,470 $ 11,568 It is reasonably possible that the gross unrecognized tax benefits, as of December 31, 2021, could decrease in the next 12 months. The quantum of the decrease could range between a nominal amount and $2.0 million (2020 — a nominal amount and $2.4 million) and relates primarily to tax years becoming statute barred for purposes of future tax examinations by local taxing authorities and the outcome of current tax examinations. For the year ended December 31, 2021, $0.1 million of interest and penalties was recorded (2020 — $0.1 million) as part of the provision for income taxes in the combined statements of net income. As at December 31, 2021, the following tax years remained subject to examination: Major Jurisdictions Canada 2015 through 2021 United States 2018 through 2021 Austria 2016 through 2021 Germany 2016 through 2021 Netherlands 2016 through 2021 As at December 31, 2021, the Trust has approximately $203.5 million (2020 — $165.2 million) of losses The aggregate amount of temporary differences subsidiaries |

(2) Foreign exchange collars included in prepaid expenses. (3) Balance includes current and non-current (4) Balance includes current and non-current The fair values of the Trust’s construction funds in escrow, loan receivable, accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and distributions payable approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short periods to maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of the long-term receivable included in other assets approximates its carrying amount as the receivable bears interest at rates comparable to current market rates. The fair values of the unsecured debentures are determined using quoted market prices. The fair values of the term loans and secured debt approximate their carrying amounts as the term loans and secured debt bear interest at rates comparable to the current market rates. The fair values of the cross currency interest rate swaps and foreign exchange collars are determined using market inputs quoted by their counterparties. The Trust periodically purchases foreign exchange collars to hedge specific anticipated foreign currency transactions and to mitigate its foreign exchange exposure on its net cash flows. At December 31, 2021, the Trust did not have any outstanding foreign exchange collar contracts. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Trust held foreign exchange collar contracts to sell US dollars and Euros which resulted in a net fair value loss of $2.6 million (note 13(e)). At December 31, 2020, the Trust held 12 outstanding foreign exchange collar contracts with a notional value of US$60.0 million and contracts the Trust to sell US dollars and receive Canadian dollars if specific US dollar exchange rates relative to the Canadian dollar are met. The Trust also held 12 outstanding foreign exchange collar contracts with a notional value of € (b) Fair Value Hierarchy Fair value measurements are based on inputs of observable and unobservable market data that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability. IFRS establishes a fair value hierarchy which is summarized below: Level 1: Fair value determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Fair value determined using significant observable inputs, generally either quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities or quoted prices in markets that are not active. Level 3: Fair value determined using significant unobservable inputs, such as pricing models, discounted cash flows or similar techniques. The following tables represent information related to the Trust’s assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring As at December 31, 2021 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED OR DISCLOSED AT FAIR VALUE Assets measured at fair value Investment properties (note 4) $ — $ — $ 7,971,158 Assets held for sale (note 5) — — 64,612 Cross currency interest rate swaps (note 7) — 62,768 — Loan receivable (note 6) — 10,471 — Liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value Unsecured debentures, net (note 7) 1,914,560 — — Unsecured term loans, net (note 7) — 533,347 — Secured debt (note 8) — 763 — Cross currency interest rate swaps (note 7) — 18,624 — Net (liabilities) assets measured or disclosed at fair value $ (1,914,560 ) $ (479,495 ) $ 8,035,770 As at December 31, 2020 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED OR DISCLOSED AT FAIR Assets measured at fair value Investment properties (note 4) $ — $ — $ 5,855,583 Cross currency interest rate swap (note 7) — 28,676 — Foreign exchange collars included in prepaid expenses and other — 2,627 — Liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value Unsecured debentures, net (note 7) 1,737,185 — — Unsecured term loans, net (note 7) — 534,947 — Cross currency interest rate swaps (note 7) — 114,264 — Net (liabilities) assets measured or disclosed at fair value $ (1,737,185 ) $ (617,908 ) $ 5,855,583 For assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the Trust determines whether transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy have occurred by reassessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period. For the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no transfers between the levels. Refer to note 4, Investment Properties, for a description of the valuation technique and inputs used in the fair value measurement and for a reconciliation of the fair value measurements of investment properties which are recognized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. (c) Risk Management The main risks arising from the Trust’s financial instruments are credit, interest rate, foreign exchange and liquidity risks. The Trust’s approach to managing these risks is summarized below: (i) Credit risk The Trust’s financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, loan receivable and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents include short-term investments, such as term deposits, which are invested in governments and financial institutions with a minimum credit rating of BBB+ (based on Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) rating scale) or Baa1 (based on Moody’s Investor Services’ (“Moody’s”) rating scale). Concentration of credit risk is further reduced by limiting the amount that is invested in any one government or financial institution according to its credit rating. Further credit risk arises in the event that a borrower of a loan receivable defaults on the repayment of amount owing to the Trust. The Trust endeavours to ensure adequate security has been provided in support of the loans receivable. Magna accounted for approximately 31% of the Trust’s rental revenue during the year ended December 31, 2021. Although its operating subsidiaries are not individually rated, Magna International Inc. has an investment grade credit rating from Moody’s, S&P and DBRS Morningstar which mitigates the Trust’s credit risk. The COVID-19 COVID-19 (ii) Interest rate risk As at December 31, 2021, the Trust’s exposure to interest rate risk is limited. Approximately 78% of the Trust’s interest bearing debt consists of fixed rate debt in the form of the 2023 Debentures, the 2027 Debentures, 2028 Debentures and the 2030 Debentures. After taking into account the related cross currency interest rate swaps, the 2023 Debentures, the 2027 Debentures, the 2028 Debentures and the 2030 Debentures have effective fixed interest rates of 2.430%, 2.964%, 2.096% and 1.045%, respectively. The remaining 22% of the Trust’s interest bearing debt consists of variable rate debt in the form of the 2024 Term Loan, 2026 Term Loan and secured debt. After taking into account the related cross currency interest rate swaps, the 2024 Term Loan and 2026 Term Loan have effective fixed interest rates of 0.272% and 1.105%, respectively and the secured debt is carried at a variable rate of interest equal to the US prime rate less 90 (iii) Foreign exchange risk As at December 31, 2021, the Trust is exposed to foreign exchange risk primarily in respect of movements in the Euro and the US dollar. The Trust is structured such that its foreign operations are primarily conducted by entities with a functional currency which is the same as the economic environment in which the operations take place. As a result, the net income impact of currency risk associated with financial instruments is limited as its financial assets and liabilities are generally denominated in the functional currency of the subsidiary that holds the financial instrument. However, the Trust is exposed to foreign currency risk on its net investment in its foreign currency denominated operations and certain Trust level foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. At December 31, 2021, the Trust’s foreign currency denominated net assets are $5.8 billion primarily in US dollars and Euros. A 1% change in the US dollar and Euro exchange rates relative to the Canadian dollar would result in a gain or loss of approximately $39.1 million and $18.1 million, respectively, to comprehensive income. Granite generates rental income that is not all denominated in Canadian dollars. Since the financial results are reported in Canadian dollars, the Trust is subject to foreign currency fluctuations that could, from time to time, have an impact on the operating results. For the year ended December 31, 2021, a 1% change in the US dollar and Euro exchange rates relative to the Canadian dollar would have impacted revenue by approximately $2.0 million and $1.2 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Trust has designated its cross currency interest rate swaps relating to the $900.0 million of unsecured debentures and $534.1 million of unsecured term loans as hedges of its net investment in the European operations (note 7(b)) and has designated its cross currency interest rate swaps relating to the $1.0 billion of unsecured debentures as a hedge of its net investment in the United States operations (note 7(b)). (iv) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk the Trust will encounter difficulties in meeting its financial obligations as they become due. The Trust may also be subject to the risks associated with debt financing, including the risks that the unsecured debentures, term loans and credit facility may not be able to be refinanced. The Trust’s objectives in minimizing liquidity risk are to maintain prudent levels of leverage on its investment properties, staggering its debt maturity profile and maintaining an investment grade credit rating. In addition, the Declaration of Trust establishes certain debt ratio limits. The estimated contractual maturities of the Trust’s financial liabilities are summarized below: Payments due by year As at December 31, Total 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 Thereafter Unsecured debentures $ 1,900,000 $ — $ 400,000 $ — $ — $ — $ 1,500,000 Unsecured term loans 534,136 — — 234,136 — 300,000 — Cross currency interest rate swaps 18,624 — 6,551 5,056 — — 7,017 Secured debt 763 — 763 — — — — Interest payments (1) Unsecured debentures, net of cross currency interest rate swap savings 209,645 39,396 39,396 29,517 29,517 29,517 42,302 Unsecured term loans, net of cross currency interest rate swap savings 18,406 3,946 3,946 3,946 3,284 3,284 — Accounts payable and accrued liabilities 113,244 108,571 3,275 1,398 — — — Distributions payable 16,969 16,969 — — — — — $ 2,811,787 $ 168,882 $ 453,931 $ 274,053 $ 32,801 $ 332,801 $ 1,549,319 (1) Represents aggregate interest expense expected to be paid over the term of the debt, on an undiscounted basis, based on actual current interest rates and average foreign exchange rates. |

The total managed capital of the Trust is summarized below: As at December 31, 2021 2020 Unsecured debentures, net $ 1,891,742 $ 1,643,175 Unsecured term loans, net 533,347 534,947 Cross currency interest rate swap (assets) liabilities, net (1) (44,144 ) 85,588 Secured debt 763 — Total debt 2,381,708 2,263,710 Stapled unitholders’ equity 5,318,653 3,920,069 Total managed capital $ 7,700,361 $ 6,183,779 (1) Balance is net of the cross currency interest rate swap assets (note 7(b)). The Trust manages, monitors and adjusts its capital balances in response to the availability of capital, economic conditions and investment opportunities with the following objectives in mind: • Compliance with investment and debt restrictions pursuant to the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust; • Compliance with existing debt covenants; • Maintaining investment grade credit ratings; • Supporting the Trust’s business strategies including ongoing operations, property development and acquisitions; • Generating stable and growing cash distributions; and • Building long-term unitholder value. The Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust contains certain provisions with respect to capital management which include: • The Trust shall not incur or assume any indebtedness if, after giving effect to the incurring or assumption of the indebtedness, the total indebtedness of the Trust would be more than 65% of the Gross Book Value (as defined in the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust); and • The Trust shall not invest in raw land for development, except for (i) existing properties with additional development, (ii) the purpose of renovating or expanding existing properties or (iii) the development of new properties, provided that the aggregate cost of the investments of the Trust in raw land, after giving effect to the proposed investment, will not exceed 15% of Gross Book Value. At December 31, 2021, the Trust’s combined debt consists of the unsecured debentures, the term loans, the secured debt and the credit facility when drawn, each of which have various financial covenants. These covenants are defined within the trust indenture, the term loan agreements, the secured debt agreement and the credit facility agreement and, depending on the debt instrument, include a total indebtedness ratio, a secured indebtedness ratio, an interest coverage ratio, an unencumbered asset ratio, and a minimum equity threshold. The Trust monitors these provisions and covenants and was in compliance with their respective requirements as at December 31, 2021 and 2020. Distributions are made at the discretion of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) and Granite REIT intends to distribute each year all of its taxable income pursuant to its Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust as calculated in accordance with the Income Tax Act. For the fiscal year 2021, the Trust declared a monthly distribution of $0.250 per stapled unit from January to November and a monthly distribution of $0.258 per stapled unit for the month of December. The Board determines monthly distribution levels having considered, among other factors, estimated 2021 and 2022 cash generated from operations and capital requirements, the alignment of its current and targeted payout ratios with the Trust’s strategic objectives and compliance with the above noted provisions and financial covenants. |

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | 21. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (a) The Trust is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Management evaluates all claims with the advice of legal counsel. Management believes these claims are generally covered by Granite’s insurance policies and that any liability from remaining claims is not probable to occur and would not have a material adverse effect on the combined financial statements. However, actual outcomes may differ from management’s expectations. (b) As at December 31, 2021, the Trust’s contractual commitments totaled $619.9 million which comprised of construction and development projects of $301.9 million and the committed acquisitions of two properties in Indiana, a property in the Netherlands upon completion and three properties in Germany totaling $318.0 million. As at December 31, 2021, the Trust has made deposits of $26.1 million in respect of the above committed acquisitions. (c) In connection with the acquisitions of investment properties located in Palmetto, Georgia on November 12, 2020 and in Locust Grove, Georgia on March 12, 2021, $122.9 million (US$97.1 million) of bonds were assumed. The authorized amount of the bonds is $131.6 million (US$104.0 million), of which $122.9 million (US$97.1 million) was outstanding as at December 31, 2021. The bonds provide for a real estate tax abatement for the acquired investment properties. Through a series of transactions, the Trust is both the bondholder and the obligor of the bonds. Therefore, in accordance with IAS 32, the bonds are not recorded in the combined balance sheet. The Trust is involved, in the normal course of business, in discussions, and has various letters of intent or conditional agreements, with respect to possible acquisitions of new properties and dispositions of existing properties in its portfolio. None of these commitments or contingencies, individually or in aggregate, would have a material impact on the combined financial statements. |

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | 22. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (a) Subsequent to December 31, 2021, the Trust declared monthly distributions for January and February 2022 of $17.0 million each (note 11). (b) On February 3, 2022, Granite acquired three income-producing properties in Germany for $140.0 million ( € (c) On February 3, 2022, Granite terminated $350.0 million of a total $500.0 million principal of the 2028 Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap, herein defined, which exchanged Canadian dollar denominated principal and interest payments of Granite’s 2028 Debentures, herein defined, for US dollar denominated payments at a fixed interest rate of 2.096% (see “Liquidity and Capital Resources — Debt Structure”). Simultaneously, Granite entered into a new $350.0 million cross-currency interest rate swap maturing August 30, 2028 to exchange the Canadian dollar denominated principal and interest payments of the 2028 Debentures for Euro denominated payments at a fixed interest rate of 0.536%. Upon termination, Granite paid $6.6 million to settle the mark-to-market (d) On February 18, 2022, Granite completed the disposition of an income-producing property and piece of land held for development located in Poland that were classified as held for sale as at December 31, 2021, for gross proceeds of $36.2 million ( € |

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |
Basis of Presentation and Statement of Compliance | (a) Basis of Presentation and Statement of Compliance The combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). |
Combined Financial Statements and Basis of Consolidation | (b) Combined Financial Statements and Basis of Consolidation As a result of the REIT conversion described in note 1, the Trust does not have a single parent; however, each unit of Granite REIT and each share of Granite GP trade as a single stapled unit and accordingly, Granite REIT and Granite GP have identical ownership. Therefore, these financial statements have been prepared on a combined basis whereby the assets, liabilities and results of Granite GP and Granite REIT have been combined. The combined financial statements include the subsidiaries of Granite GP and Granite REIT. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated by Granite GP or Granite REIT from the date of acquisition, being the date on which control is obtained. The subsidiaries continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. Control exists when Granite GP or Granite REIT have power, exposure or rights to variable returns and the ability to use their power over the entity to affect the amount of returns it generates. All intercompany balances, income and expenses and unrealized gains and losses resulting from intercompany transactions are eliminated. |
Trust Units | (c) Trust Units The stapled units are redeemable at the option of the holder and, therefore, are required to be accounted for as financial liabilities, except where certain exemption conditions are met, in which case redeemable instruments may be classified as equity. The attributes of the stapled units meet the exemption conditions set out in IAS 32, Financial Instruments: Presentation |
Investment Properties | (d) Investment Properties The Trust accounts for its investment properties, which include income-producing properties, properties under development and land held for development, in accordance with IAS 40, Investment Property Income-Producing Properties The carrying value of income-producing properties includes the impact of straight-line rental revenue (note 2(l)), tenant incentives and deferred leasing costs since these amounts are incorporated in the determination of the fair value of income-producing properties. When an income-producing property is disposed of, the gain or loss is determined as the difference between the disposal proceeds, net of selling costs, and the carrying amount of the property and is recognized in net income in the period of disposal. Properties Under Development The Trust’s development properties are classified as such until the property is substantially completed and available for occupancy. The initial cost of properties under development includes the acquisition cost of the land and direct development or expansion costs, including construction costs, borrowing costs and indirect costs wholly attributable to development. Borrowing costs are capitalized to projects under development or construction based on the average accumulated expenditures outstanding during the period multiplied by the Trust’s average borrowing rate on existing debt. Where borrowings are associated with specific developments, the amount capitalized is the gross borrowing cost incurred on such borrowings less any investment income arising on temporary investment of these borrowings. The capitalization of borrowing costs is suspended if there are prolonged periods that development activity is interrupted. The Trust capitalizes direct and indirect costs, including property taxes and insurance of the development property, if activities necessary to ready the development property for its intended use are in progress. Costs of internal personnel and other indirect costs that are wholly attributable to a project are capitalized as incurred. If considered reliably measurable |
Business Combinations | (e) Business Combinations The Trust accounts for property acquisitions as a business combination if the particular assets and set of activities acquired can be operated and managed as a business in their current state for the purpose of providing a return to the unitholders. In accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations The Trust recognizes any non-controlling acquisition-by-acquisition non-controlling Acquisition related costs are expensed as incurred. Any contingent consideration is recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Subsequent changes to the fair value of contingent consideration that is recorded as an asset or liability is recognized in net income. Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the fair value of non-controlling |
Assets Held for Sale | (f) Assets Held for Sale Non-current |
Foreign Currency Translation | (g) Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of the Trust’s foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period, unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case, for material transactions, the exchange rates at the dates of those transactions are used. Exchange differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity. In preparing the financial statements of each entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the average rates of exchange prevailing in the period. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary Non-monetary • The effective portion of exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks are recognized in other comprehensive income; • Exchange differences on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation for which settlement is neither planned nor likely to occur (therefore forming part of the net investment in the foreign operation) are recognized in other comprehensive income; and • Exchange differences on foreign currency borrowings related to capitalized interest for assets under construction are recognized in investment properties. |
Financial Instruments and Hedging | (h) Financial Instruments and Hedging Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities The following summarizes the Trust’s classification and measurement basis of its financial assets and liabilities: Classification and Measurement Basis Financial assets Construction funds in escrow Amortized Cost Long-term receivables included in other assets Amortized Cost Cross currency interest rate swaps Fair Value Loan receivable Amortized Cost Accounts receivable Amortized Cost Foreign exchange derivative contracts Fair Value Cash and cash equivalents Amortized Cost Financial liabilities Unsecured debentures, net Amortized Cost Unsecured term loans, net Amortized Cost Secured debt Amortized Cost Cross currency interest rate swaps Fair Value Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Amortized Cost Foreign exchange derivative contracts Fair Value Distributions payable Amortized Cost The Trust recognizes an allowance for expected credit losses (“ECL”) for financial assets measured at amortized cost. The impact of the credit loss modeling process is summarized as follow: • The Trust did not record an ECL allowance against long-term receivables as historical experience of loss on these balances is insignificant and, based on the assessment of forward-looking information, no significant increases in losses are expected. The Trust will continue to assess the valuation of these instruments. • The Trust did not record an ECL allowance against accounts receivable and has determined that its internal processes of evaluating each receivable on a specific basis for collectability using historical experience and adjusted for forward-looking information, would appropriately allow the Trust to determine if there are significant increases in credit risk to then record a corresponding ECL allowance. For financial liabilities measured at amortized cost, the liability is amortized using the effective interest rate method. Under the effective interest rate method, any transaction fees, costs, discounts and premiums directly related to the financial liabilities are recognized in net income over the expected life of the obligation. In regards to modifications to financial liabilities, when a financial liability measured at amortized cost is modified or exchanged, and such modification or exchange does not result in derecognition, the adjustment to the amortized cost of the financial liability as a result of the modification or exchange is recognized in net income. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | (i) Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. |
Fixed Assets | (j) Fixed Assets Fixed assets include computer hardware and software, furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements, which are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the fixed assets, which typically range from 3 5 right-of-use Leases. right-of-use |
Leases | (k) Leases The Trust recognizes a right-of-use Leases. right-of-use right-of-use right-of-use The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, at the Trust’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Trust uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The lease obligation is subsequently increased by the interest cost on the lease liability and decreased by lease payments made. It is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, a change in the estimate of the amount expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee or, as appropriate, a change in the assessment of whether a purchase or extension option is reasonably certain to be exercised or a termination option is reasonably certain not to be exercised. |
Revenue Recognition | (l) Revenue Recognition Where Granite has retained substantially all the benefits and risks of ownership of its rental properties, leases with its tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Where substantially all the benefits and risks of ownership of the Trust’s rental properties have been transferred to its tenants, the Trust’s leases are accounted for as finance leases. All of the Trust’s current leases are operating leases. Revenue from investment properties include base rents earned from tenants under lease agreements, property tax and operating cost recoveries and other incidental income. Rents from tenants may contain rent escalation clauses or free rent periods which are recognized in revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The difference between the revenue recognized and the contractual rent is included in investment properties as straight-line rents receivable. In addition, tenant incentives including cash allowances provided to tenants are recognized as a reduction in rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease where it is determined that the tenant fixturing has no benefit to the property beyond the existing tenancy. Property tax and operating cost recoveries from tenants are recognized as revenue in the period in which applicable costs are incurred. |
Unit-Based Compensation Plans | (m) Unit-Based Compensation Plans Incentive Stock Option Plan Compensation expense for option grants is based on the fair value of the options at the grant date and is recognized over the period from the grant date to the date the award is vested. A liability is recognized for outstanding options based upon the fair value as the Trust is an open-ended trust making its units redeemable. During the period in which options are outstanding, the liability is adjusted for changes in the fair value with such adjustments being recognized as compensation expense in general and administrative expenses in the period in which they occur. The liability balance is reduced as options are exercised and recorded in equity as stapled units along with the proceeds received on exercise. Executive Deferred Stapled Unit Plan The executive deferred stapled unit plan is measured at fair value at the date of grant and amortized to compensation expense from the effective date of the grant to the final vesting date. Compensation expense is recognized on a proportionate basis consistent with the vesting features of each tranche of the grant. Compensation expense for executive deferred stapled units granted under the plan is recognized in general and administrative expenses with a corresponding liability recognized based upon the fair value of the Trust’s stapled units as the Trust is an open-ended trust making its units redeemable. During the period in which the executive deferred stapled units are outstanding, for grants with no performance criteria, the liability is adjusted for changes in the market value of the Trust’s stapled unit, and for grants with performance criteria the liability is measured at fair value using the Monte Carlo simulation model (note 12), with both such adjustments being recognized as compensation expense in general and administrative expenses in the period in which they occur. The liability balance is reduced as deferred stapled units are settled for stapled units and recorded in equity. Director/Trustee Deferred Share Unit Plan The compensation expense and a corresponding liability associated with the director/trustee deferred share unit plan is measured based on the market value of the underlying stapled units. During the period in which the awards are outstanding, the liability is adjusted for changes in the market value of the underlying stapled unit, with such positive or negative adjustments being recognized in general and administrative expenses in the period in which they occur. The liability balance is settled for cash when a director/trustee ceases to be a member of the Board. |
Income Taxes | (n) Income Taxes Operations in Canada Granite qualifies as a mutual fund trust under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Act”) and as such the Trust itself will not be subject to income taxes provided it continues to qualify as a REIT for purposes of the Act. A REIT is not taxable and not considered to be a Specified Investment Flow-through Trust provided it complies with certain tests and it distributes all of its taxable income in a taxation year to its unitholders. The Trust’s qualification as a REIT results in no current or deferred income tax being recognized in the combined financial statements for income taxes related to the Canadian investment properties. Operations in the United States The Trust’s investment property operations in the United States are conducted in a qualifying United States REIT (“US REIT”) for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a qualifying US REIT, it is not taxable provided it complies with certain tests in addition to the requirement to distribute substantially all of its taxable income. As a qualifying US REIT, current income taxes on U.S. taxable income have not been recorded in the combined financial statements. However, the Trust has recorded deferred income taxes that may arise on the disposition of its investment properties as the Trust will likely be subject to entity level income tax in connection with such transactions pursuant to the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act. Operations in Europe The Trust consolidates certain entities that continue to be subject to income tax. Income taxes for taxable entities in Europe, as well as other entities in Canada or the United States subject to tax, are recorded as follows: Current Income Tax The current income tax expense is determined on the basis of enacted or substantively enacted tax rates and laws at each balance sheet date. Deferred Income Tax Deferred income tax is recorded, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the amounts reported on the combined financial statements. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that deductions, tax credits or tax losses will be utilized. Each of the current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they are levied by the same taxation authority in either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities within the same reporting group that settle on a net basis. |
Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions | (o) Significant Accounting Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of the combined financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures made in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the judgments, estimates and assumptions utilized in preparing the combined financial statements are reasonable and prudent; however, actual results could be materially different and require an adjustment to the reported results. Judgments The following are the critical judgments that have been made in applying the Trust’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the combined financial statements: (i) Leases The Trust’s policy for revenue recognition is described in note 2(l). The Trust makes judgments in determining whether certain leases are operating or finance leases, in particular tenant leases with long contractual terms or leases where the property is a large square-footage and/or architecturally specialized. The Trust also makes judgments in determining the lease term for some lease contracts in which it is a lessee that include renewal or termination options. The assessment of whether the Trust is reasonably certain to exercise such options impacts the lease term which, in turn, significantly affects the amount of lease obligations and right-of-use (ii) Investment properties The Trust’s policy relating to investment properties is described in note 2(d). In applying this policy, judgment is used in determining whether certain costs incurred for tenant improvements are additions to the carrying amount of the property or represent incentives, identifying the point at which practical completion of properties under development occurs and determining borrowing costs to be capitalized to the carrying value of properties under development. Judgment is also applied in determining the use, extent and frequency of independent appraisals. (iii) Income taxes The Trust applies judgment in determining whether it will continue to qualify as a REIT for both Canadian and U.S. tax purposes for the foreseeable future. However, should it at some point no longer qualify, it would be subject to income tax and would be required to recognize current and deferred income taxes. Estimates and Assumptions The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities include the following: (i) Valuation of investment properties The fair value of investment properties is determined by management using primarily the discounted cash flow method in which the income and expenses are projected over the anticipated term of the investment plus a terminal value discounted using an appropriate discount rate. The Trust obtains, from time to time, appraisals from independent qualified real estate valuation experts. However, the Trust does not measure its investment properties based on these appraisals but uses them as data points, together with other external market information accumulated by management, in arriving at its own conclusions on values. Management uses valuation assumptions such as discount rates, terminal capitalization rates and market rental rates applied in external appraisals or sourced from valuation experts; however, the Trust also uses its historical renewal experience with tenants, its direct knowledge of the specialized nature of certain of Granite’s portfolio and tenant profile and the actual condition of the properties in making business judgments about lease renewal probabilities, renewal rents and capital expenditures. The critical assumptions relating to the Trust’s estimates of fair values of investment properties include the receipt of contractual rents, contractual renewal terms, expected future market rental rates, discount rates that reflect current market uncertainties, capitalization rates and recent investment property prices. If there is any change in these assumptions or regional, national or international economic conditions, the fair value of investment properties may change materially. Refer to note 4 for further information on the estimates and assumptions made by management. (ii) Fair value of financial instruments Where the fair value of financial assets or liabilities recorded on the balance sheet or disclosed in the notes cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using valuation techniques including the discounted cash flow method. The inputs to these models are taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgment is required in establishing fair values. The judgments include considerations of inputs such as credit risk and volatility. Changes in assumptions about these factors could materially affect the reported fair value of financial instruments. (iii) Income taxes The Trust operates in a number of countries and is subject to the income tax laws and related tax treaties in each of its operating jurisdictions. These laws and treaties can be subject to different interpretations by relevant taxation authorities. Significant judgment is required in the estimation of Granite’s income tax expense, the interpretation and application of the relevant tax laws and treaties and the provision for any exposure that may arise from tax positions that are under audit by relevant taxation authorities. The recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets or liabilities is dependent on management’s estimate of future taxable profits and income tax rates that are expected to be in effect in the period the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Any changes in management’s estimate can result in changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities as reported in the combined balance sheets and also the deferred income tax expense in the combined statements of net income. |
