Revenue Increases a Solid 6.4% in 2Q25 and 9.6% YTD

SAN JOSÉ, Costa Rica--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Logistic Properties of the Americas (NYSE American: LPA) (together with its subsidiaries, “LPA” or the “Company”), announced today its unaudited consolidated financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025 (“second quarter 2025” or “2Q25”). The financial results are expressed in U.S. dollars and are presented in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), which differs in certain significant respects from the U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). This information should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements, including the notes thereto. All comparisons within this announcement are year-over-year (“YoY”), unless otherwise noted. LPA’s financial results are stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted. LPA is a leading developer, owner, acquirer and manager of logistics and industrial real estate of institutional quality in the Americas, and one of the few internally managed, vertically integrated, and institutional platforms operating across the region.

2Q25 Financial and Operating Highlights

  • Revenue in the second quarter 2025 increased by 6.4% to $11.7 million, primarily due to building stabilizations, one in Peru in February 2025 and the other in Costa Rica in July 2024. Another significant contributor to revenue growth in 2Q25 was $0.9 million of additional revenue related to higher rental rates, primarily in Colombia. Partially offsetting these revenue increases were exchange rate fluctuations that had a total negative effect of $0.9 million in the quarter. For the six months ending June 30, 2025, revenue increased 9.6% to $23.5 million.
  • Net Operating Income (“NOI”) increased by 3.7% to $9.6 million, mainly due to a 5.9% increase in rental revenue and partially offset by a 17.5% increase in operating expenses in 2Q25. During the first six months of 2025, NOI increased 4.8% to $19.0 million. Same-Property Cash NOI increased by 0.8% to $8.7 million in 2Q25.
  • At 94.5%, the 2Q25 occupancy rate of LPA’s operating portfolio was 3.8 percentage points below year-end 2024 and slightly below the 94.6% occupancy rate at the end of second quarter 2024. During 2Q25, LPA signed a five-year U.S. dollar denominated lease for 121,632 square feet of space that had been previously occupied by another company at its Coyol 4 Logistic Park in Costa Rica. As of June 30, 2025, 98.2% of LPA’s operating Gross Leasable Area (“GLA”) was leased compared to 98.6% at the end of 2024.
  • General and Administrative expenses increased by 0.5% to $4.6 million in 2Q25, primarily due to the recognition of $0.9 million in share-based compensation related to Restricted Stock Units, and to a lesser extent due to higher audit fees and growth related headcount increases in fourth quarter 2024 and first quarter 2025.
  • During 2Q25, LPA repurchased $1.1 million of its ordinary shares, bringing the total amount of repurchased shares to $3.3 million under the Company’s $10 million share repurchase program, which will expire on November 20, 2025.

Subsequent Events

During the second quarter, LPA appointed Eduardo Nakash as Country Manager for Mexico, under the Company’s strategy to establish a strong local presence in the country and capitalize on the growth of its logistics and industrial real estate market. Mr. Nakash has over 18 years of experience in real estate investment, development, and strategic consulting in Latin America. In addition, he holds a bachelor’s degree in industrial engineering from ITAM in Mexico and an MBA from The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

CEO Commentary

LPA’s regional and vertically integrated logistics platform delivered another quarter of continuous revenue and NOI growth in the second quarter, while one-time factors hindered this growth slightly. With our operating portfolio 98% leased and with the goal of further exploiting persistent and favorable supply-demand imbalances in our foundational markets, we began construction of a second new building at our strategically-located Parque Logistico Callao in Lima. Both facilities are already substantially pre-leased and are expected to contribute meaningfully to revenue growth starting in late 2025 and into early 2026. This will also enhance LPA’s operating leverage, as SG&A expenses remained relatively flat this quarter and we expect any future SG&A growth to remain controlled and primarily limited to our expanding activities in Mexico.

With the appointment of Eduardo Nakash as Country Manager for Mexico, who will spearhead LPA’s entry into this significantly larger market, we are advancing our long-term growth strategy to expand and scale our unique regional platform. Our focus will be on selectively acquiring and developing logistics facilities to serve both existing regional and global clients, while also attracting new ones. As a reminder, our investment approach in Mexico will remain patient and disciplined, targeting key sub-markets and prioritizing tenant quality, while leveraging the extensive local expertise and deep market knowledge of strategic partners such as Alas.

Looking ahead, strong demographic tailwinds, digital commerce penetration, and resilient general domestic consumption are expected to sustain outsized demand for high-quality logistics space—still in short supply across both our core markets and Mexico. With the right team, strategy, and partners in place, LPA is well-positioned to seize this opportunity, grow long-term income, and unlock meaningful value across our portfolio.
