BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Position (“MD&A”) of Granite Real Estate Investment Trust (“Granite REIT”) summarizes the significant factors affecting the consolidated combined operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows of Granite REIT and its subsidiaries (collectively “Granite” or the “Trust”) for the year ended December 31, 2024. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts are in millions of Canadian dollars. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the accompanying audited consolidated combined financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) (“IFRS Accounting Standards” or “GAAP”). The MD&A was prepared as at February 26, 2025 and its contents were approved by the Board of Trustees of Granite REIT on this date. Additional information relating to Granite, including the Annual Report and Annual Information Form (“AIF”) for fiscal 2024 and dated February 26, 2025, can be obtained from the Trust’s website at www.granitereit.com, on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

For the periods prior to October 1, 2024, references to "units" should be read as "stapled units" and "unitholders" should be read as "stapled unitholders".

In addition to using financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, Granite also uses certain non-GAAP performance measures and non-GAAP ratios in managing its business to measure financial and operating performance as well as for capital allocation decisions and valuation purposes. Granite believes that providing these measures on a supplemental basis to the GAAP amounts is helpful to investors in assessing the overall performance of Granite’s business.

The non-GAAP performance measures include net operating income before lease termination and close-out fees, straight-line rent and tenant incentive amortization (“NOI - cash basis”), same property NOI - cash basis, constant currency same property NOI - cash basis, funds from operations (“FFO”), adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), available liquidity, total debt and net debt. Refer to “NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURES” for definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP performance measures to GAAP financial measures.

Granite REIT 2024 7

The non-GAAP ratios include FFO payout ratio, AFFO payout ratio, leverage ratio, interest coverage ratio, net leverage ratio, indebtedness ratio, unencumbered asset coverage ratio and any related per unit amounts. Refer to “NON-GAAP RATIOS” for definitions and reconciliations of non-GAAP ratios to GAAP financial measures.

Readers are cautioned that these measures do not have standardized meanings prescribed under IFRS Accounting Standards and, therefore, should not be construed as alternatives to net income, cash provided by operating activities or any other measure calculated in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Additionally, because these terms do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards, they may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other reporting issuers.
