Going forward, the company has the capabilities and balance sheet required to continue growing and to take advantage of opportunities to increase densification across its portfolio. The shares currently trade at around 17 times forward funds from operations and at a 10 per cent premium to its IFRS book value per share. Note: Mainstreet is a smaller market capitalization company and investors should consider using limit orders when buying and/or selling shares.
