StorageVault Delivers 10% Revenue Growth in Fiscal 2025, Expands Platform, Increases Dividend and Reaffirms Growth Outlook

TORONTO, Feb. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — STORAGEVAULT CANADA INC. (“StorageVault” or the “Corporation“) (SVI-TSX) reports the Corporation’s full year 2025 audited results. Iqbal Khan, Chief Financial Officer, commented:

“Our 2025 results reflect that consistent execution and focus on fundamentals sustains long term performance. Overall, we increased revenue by 10%, NOI by 9.5% and grew AFFO by 5.8% per share, driven by strong same store revenue and NOI growth of 4.1% and 4.3%. We exceeded our acquisition targets and completed 125,000 square feet of new and renovated space, increasing our platform by 630,000 rentable square feet. For 2026, we expect to continue to deliver revenue, NOI and AFFO growth, complete over $100 million of acquisitions, add 165,000 square feet through expansions and renovations, and further increase free cash flow. We remain dedicated to continuing as Canada’s leading storage provider, offering premium full-service storage, moving and logistics solutions, and are honored to support Team Canada Olympians who embody performance, discipline and excellence.”

2025 Full Year Audited Results
Revenue increased to $335.1 million in 2025 from $304.7 million in 2024, a 10.0% increase, and net operating income (“NOI”), a non-IFRS measure, grew to $220.7 million from $201.6 million, a 9.5% increase. Cash flow from operations grew to $105.7 million from $100.9 million and when combined with our financing, acquisitions, expansions, and $16.3 million in share repurchase, resulted in a cash balance of $15.2 million at the end of the year. The net loss of $12.5 million (net loss of $30.2 million for 2024) is impacted by the following non-cash and non-recurring items – $115.1 million of depreciation and amortization, $4.6 million of interest accretion on convertible debentures, $16.1 million realized gain on real estate (see October 17, 2025 news release for details), $5.9 million of unrealized gain on derivative financial instruments, and deferred tax recovery of $5.1 million.

Revenue and NOI growth from Existing Self Storage, a non-IFRS measure, increased by 4.1% and 4.3%, over the prior year. Funds from operations (“FFO”), a non-IFRS measure, were $82.5 million in 2025 compared to $79.6 million for 2024, a 3.7% increase year over year. Adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), a non-IFRS measure, were $90.5 million for 2025 compared to $87.3 million for 2024, a 3.7% increase year over year. On a per share basis, FFO and AFFO, non-IFRS ratios, increased by 5.8% and 5.8%.

Annualizing results from our 2025 acquisitions would have resulted in revenues of $340.6 million, NOI of $224.3 million, FFO of $84.9 million and AFFO of $93.0 million. Despite the annualization, the annualized results remain muted and reflect only limited cash flow contribution from recently acquired lease-up stores and from expanded and renovated space completed in fiscal 2025 and 2024. Specifically, $157.0 million of the $347.6 million in acquisitions and 235,000 square feet of expanded or renovated space from fiscal 2025 and 2024, are still in the early stages of lease-up and stabilization. As these assets progress to full stabilization over the next three years, the Corporation expects them to generate an additional $8.9 million of NOI annually above the amounts recorded in the current year, which is anticipated to drive a corresponding increase in FFO and AFFO. See definition of “Annualized Information” below.

For the fourth quarter of 2025, revenue increased to $86.7 million from $80.2 million in Q4 2024 and NOI, a non-IFRS measure, grew to $57.7 million from $53.4 million.

The Q4 2025 net loss of $15.5 million (net loss of $6.6 million for Q4 2024) is impacted by the following non-cash and non-recurring items – $31.6 million of depreciation and amortization, $2.2 million in stock based compensation, $1.2 million of interest accretion on convertible debentures, $2.0 million of unrealized loss on derivative financial instruments, $0.4 million of realized gain on real estate (related to the derecognition and replacement of capital improvements made at our stores) and deferred tax of $1.0 million.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures
Management uses both IFRS and non-IFRS Measures to assess the financial and operating performance of the Corporation’s operations. These non-IFRS Measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The non-IFRS Measures referenced in this news release include the following:

1. Net Operating Income (“NOI”) – NOI is defined as storage and related services less operating costs. NOI does not include interest expense or income, depreciation and amortization, selling, general and administrative costs, acquisition and integration costs, stock based compensation costs, realized and unrealized gains or losses on real estate, realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments or taxes. NOI assists management in assessing profitability and valuation from principal business activities.
2. Funds from Operations (“FFO”) – FFO is defined as net income or loss plus depreciation and amortization, realized gains or losses on real estate, realized and unrealized gains or losses on interest rate swaps, interest accretion on convertible debentures, realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments, stock based compensation expenses, and deferred income taxes; and after adjustments for equity accounted entities and non-controlling interests. FFO should not be viewed as an alternative to cash from operating activities, net income, or other measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. The Corporation believes that FFO can be a beneficial measure, when combined with primary IFRS measures, to assist in the evaluation of the Corporation’s ability to generate cash and evaluate its return on investments as it excludes the effects of real estate amortization and gains and losses from the sale of real estate, all of which are based on historical cost accounting and which may be of limited significance in evaluating current performance.
3. Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) – AFFO is defined as FFO plus acquisition and integration costs. Acquisition and integration costs are one time in nature to the specific assets purchased in the current period or pending and are expensed under IFRS.
4. Existing Self Storage – means stabilized, both physically and economically, stores that StorageVault has owned or leased at least since the beginning of the previous fiscal year. Also referred to as “same store”.

NOI, FFO, AFFO and Existing Self Storage, should not be viewed as an alternative to, in isolation from, or superior to, net income or cash flow from operations, or results from StorageVault’s comprehensive operations, respectively, or other measures calculated in accordance with IFRS. NOI, FFO and AFFO should not be interpreted as an indicator of cash generated from operating activities and is not indicative of cash available to fund operating expenditures, or for the payment of cash distributions. Existing Self Storage should not be considered a measure of StorageVault’s comprehensive operations. NOI, FFO, AFFO and Existing Self Storage are simply additional measures of operating performance which highlight trends in StorageVault’s core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. StorageVault’s management also uses these non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period and to prepare operating budgets. In addition, the Corporation’s definitions of NOI, FFO, AFFO and Existing Self Storage may differ from that of other issuers.
