Question: Jonathan Kelcher - Artis Real Estate Investment Trust - Analyst
: First question, just maybe elaborate a little bit more, Samir, on the Cominar. You're hoping for a resolution in the coming months. So if I take that
to mean that by the end of this year, it should be like fully resolved and gone?

AUGUST 08, 2025 / 5:00PM, AX_u.TO - Q2 2025 Artis Real Estate Investment Trust Earnings Call
Question: Jonathan Kelcher - Artis Real Estate Investment Trust - Analyst
: Okay. And I think last quarter, you talked about potentially becoming active in the second half of this year on the acquisition side. Can you maybe
give a little update on that? What asset classes would look more favorable to you right now?
Question: Jonathan Kelcher - Artis Real Estate Investment Trust - Analyst
: Okay. And being agnostic, how do you -- like the equity securities portfolio was relatively quiet this quarter for you. How are you thinking about
that?
Question: Jonathan Kelcher - Artis Real Estate Investment Trust - Analyst
: Okay. And then just last one for me. You had some strategic review costs in the G&A. I thought that process was over. Can you maybe give a little
bit color of what that might have pertained to?
Question: Jonathan Kelcher - Artis Real Estate Investment Trust - Analyst
: Okay. Does that mean like the -- whatever was going to happen, didn't happen, so you wrote off the cost type of thing? Or is this something that
could be ongoing in the next several quarters?
Question: Anish Thapar - Scotiabank GBM - Analyst
: So my first question is on the dispositions. So only one retail property was disposed this quarter. So what's your target for the asset sales in the
second half of 2025? And which type of properties are attracting the strongest buy right now by -- maybe by geography or asset class?
Question: Anish Thapar - Scotiabank GBM - Analyst
: All right. Just a follow-up question on the Cominar JV. So is there any potential for you to acquire some of its assets going forward?
