5i Research Answer:

MEQ reported earnings of $3.67 beating estimates of $1.31, and revenues of $52.991M beating estimates of $52.276M. MEQ saw double-digit year-over-year growth across its key operating metrics, and Funds from Operations (FFO) increased by 32%. The company has benefited from high rates of in-migration into the Western provinces of Canada and the rising cost of home ownership. Management sees rental rates continuing to rise across Canada, and it continues to buy back shares at a discount to NAV. This was a strong quarter for the company and we continue to like its strong position in the Western rental market and solid fundamentals. We feel that investors should be pleased with these results.
