Guernsey deputies use wheelchairs as part of accessibility event
A deputy who took part in an interactive accessibility event in Guernsey said the session offered a "massive insight" into the lives of wheelchair Aindre Reece-Sheerin, access consultant and rights campaigner, invited deputies and civil servants to use wheelchairs and wear blindfolds to navigate around the Model Yacht Pond and Castle Cornet on Wednesday Tina Bury, who used a wheelchair as part of the session, said: "It just gave me a massive insight that you just don't have as an able-bodied person." Mr Reece-Sheerin said he hoped the session would "sow a tiny little seed" and bring home how improving accessibility would change lives. He said "Every time somebody talks about a policy, a practice or a procedure, a light will go on and they'll say... 'where does this policy, practice or procedure sit within the new disability ordinance?'."Bury, president of the Committee for Employment and Social Security, said the challenge highlighted how each "tiny dip and incline" became a "massive" hurdle while using a wheelchair."This has been really valuable to everyone," she Gary Collins, vice-president of the Transport Licensing Authority, wore a blindfold and used a cane as part of the event. He said: "You felt totally out of your comfort zone."Being totally blind was a very new experience and a real challenge."Things like this highlight what we need to do, we know we've got an ordinance in place about accessibility for certain things."He said the experience would "remain with him" and added "it's something to really take forward". Deputy Adrian Gabriel, president of the Committee for the Environment and Infrastructure, said the experience was "hard physically" and "you don't appreciate what your legs do"."You take them away and you appreciate how everything else works harder," he added."My arms are buzzing from getting up and down ramps over uneven surfaces."The deputy said some disabled people were unable to visit Castle Cornet due to accessibility, which he said was a "real sad state of affairs I'm afraid".Gabriel said measures needed to be put in place in order to make sure it was "accessible to all". 'Real, everyday problems' Chantelle Tucker, vision support services officer at Guernsey Blind Association (GBA), said: "It was an eye-opener for them to see the difficulties that people locally faced on a day-to-day basis."It was a really positive experience."A lot of them [deputies] made comments about their depth perception, about the distance, disorientation and it's trying to explain that these are the difficulties and challenges that people face on a day-to-day basis."These are real everyday problems that most people face."

DRI Healthcare Trust Reports First Quarter 2025 Results and Announces Internalization of Manager
Definitive agreements for internalization transaction entered into with manager, estimated to deliver $200 million in cumulative savings over 10 years1 Portfolio assets generate second highest cash receipts and Adjusted EBITDA since IPO Normal course issuer bid reactivated with ability to purchase over 3 million units TORONTO, May 12, 2025 /CNW/ - DRI Healthcare Trust (TSX: (TSX: DHT.U) (the "Trust") today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The Trust's first quarter 2025 financial statements and Management's Discussion & Analysis ("MD&A") have been filed on SEDAR+ ( All dollar amounts are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated. "We are excited to announce that we have entered into definitive agreements for a transaction that will terminate the existing management agreement with our manager, and allow the Trust to internalize the investment management function," said Gary Collins, the Trust's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. "We believe this evolutionary step forward will create alignment of interests and transparency for all stakeholders, and is intended to generate value for unitholders. We have a robust pipeline backed by a portfolio that continues to increase and produce significant returns. At the same time, we will opportunistically allocate capital towards unit buybacks via our renewed normal course issuer bid to ensure accretive value generation on a per unit basis." Internalization Transaction In accordance with the definitive management agreement termination agreement and asset purchase agreement entered into by the Trust and DRI Capital Inc. (the "manager" or "DRI Capital") on the date hereof, the Trust will pay an aggregate of $49 million in cash to DRI Capital to extinguish the management agreement, along with all management and performance fee obligations (with expenses payable in connection with the pre-closing period payable by the Trust), and to acquire all the relevant assets of DRI Capital. As a result of this transaction, employees of the manager will also transition over to a Trust subsidiary. This simplified structure is intended to generate strategic, financial, and operational benefits and accretive value over the long term. Furthermore, the manager will indemnify the Trust and its affiliates for any damages relating to the events of last summer. The internalization transaction was recommended for approval by a special committee of the Trust's board composed of independent trustees. The amount paid reflects an approximately 4x multiple of trailing twelve month management fees and compares favourably to precedent transactions. Subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, the transaction is expected to close before the beginning of the fourth quarter of 2025.

Comparative figures for royalty assets Simponi, Stelara and Ilaris are included in Other products. 6 Total Cash Receipts, Total Cash Royalty Receipts and Normalized Total Cash Receipts are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are not standardized measures under IFRS and might not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other issuers. The reconciliation of these measures can be found later in this press release and in the Trust's MD&A. Liquidity and Capital On March 31, 2025, the Trust had cash and cash equivalents of $55.7 million. The Trust's credit facility had an outstanding principal balance of $309.9 million on March 31, 2025. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Trust revised the credit facility to obtain lender consent for internalization. In addition, $25 million of the acquisition credit facility was reallocated to the working capital credit facility, increasing it to $50 million. Furthermore, the interest rate on the amended credit agreement was revised to SOFR plus (i) a margin which may vary from 1.75% to 2.50% based on the Trust's leverage ratio; and (ii) a margin of 0.10%. The Trust had 56,310,920 units issued and outstanding on March 31, 2025. Distributions On March 3, 2025, the board of trustees approved a quarterly cash distribution of $0.10 per Unit to unitholders of record as of March 31, 2025, which was paid on April 17, 2025. The Trust also announced today that its board of trustees has declared a quarterly cash distribution in the amount of $0.10 per Unit for the second quarter of 2025, payable on July 18, 2025, to unitholders of record as of June 30, 2025. Normal Course Issuer Bid The Trust also announced today the acceptance by the TSX of the Trust's Notice of Intention to make a normal course issuer bid (the "NCIB"). Pursuant to the NCIB, the Trust proposes to purchase, from time to time, if considered advisable, up to an aggregate of 3,148,536 of its trust units, being 10% of its 31,485,368 public float of units as of May 5, 2025, through the facilities of the TSX and/or through various eligible alternative Canadian trading systems at the market price at the time of purchase. The Trust had 56,310,920 units issued and outstanding as of such date. Purchases may commence on May 20, 2025 and will conclude on the earlier of the date on which the Trust has purchased the maximum number of trust units permitted under the NCIB and May 19, 2026. The average daily trading volume of the units over the most recently completed six calendar months was 43,352 units. Accordingly, for purposes of the TSX rules, the Trust is entitled to purchase, on any trading day, up to 10,838 units and to make block purchases of its units which exceed such daily limit no more frequently than once per calendar week. Under the Trust's prior normal course issuer bid that commenced on November 20, 2023 and concluded on November 19, 2024 (the "Prior NCIB"), the Trust obtained approval from the TSX to purchase 3,280,195 units. The Trust purchased 406,346 units under the Prior NCIB through the facilities of the TSX and alternative Canadian trading systems at a volume weighted average price of $9.64 per unit. The Trust remains focused on its primary strategy of acquiring new pharmaceutical royalty streams and using its capital for that purpose. DRI Capital Inc., the manager of the Trust ("DRI Capital"), believes that there is a robust and growing pipeline of royalty stream acquisitions opportunities and is active in reviewing a number of potential transactions. However, it is also the opinion of DRI Capital that, from time to time, the market price of the Trust's units may not adequately reflect the value of the underlying assets of the Trust, and the Trust wishes to take advantage of the market trading prices of its units in those instances. The board of trustees of the Trust believes that at such times the proposed purchases would be in the best interests of the Trust and would constitute an appropriate use of available funds. All units purchased by the Trust pursuant to the NCIB will be cancelled. In connection with the NCIB, the Trust will establish an automatic purchase plan with its designated broker (the "Plan") to allow for purchases of units during self-imposed blackout periods, subject to certain parameters as to price and number of units. Outside of these pre- determined black-out periods, units will be repurchased in accordance with management's discretion, subject to applicable law. The Plan will constitute an automatic plan for purposes of applicable Canadian securities legislation and has been pre-cleared by the TSX. First Quarter 2025 Conference Call & Webcast As previously announced, management will hold a conference call on Tuesday, May 13, 2025 at 8:00 a.m. (ET) to review the Trust's 2025 first quarter results. You can join the call by dialing 1-888-699-1199 or 416-945-7677 approximately 15 minutes prior to the call to secure a line. A live webcast of the conference call, including a slide presentation, will be available at https:// Please connect at least 15 minutes prior to the conference call to ensure adequate time for any software download that may be required to join the webcast. The webcast will be archived on the Trust's website following the call date. Non-GAAP Financial Measures The reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP ratios for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 to the most directly comparable measures calculated in accordance with IFRS are presented below. Total Cash Royalty Receipts, Total Cash Receipts and Normalized Total Cash Receipts Total Cash Receipts refer to Total Cash Royalty Receipts plus cash receipts from all products. Total Cash Receipts include cash receipts from interest as well as non-recurring cash receipts. Total Cash Royalty Receipts refers to aggregate cash royalty receipts and milestone royalty receipts from the Trust's portfolio of royalty assets and forms part of Total Cash Receipts. Because of the lag between when the Trust records royalty income and receives the corresponding cash payments on its royalties and milestones, management believes Total Cash Receipts and Total Cash Royalty Receipts are useful measures when evaluating the Trust's operations, as they represent actual cash generated in respect of all royalty assets held during a period. The Trust also presents Normalized Total Cash Receipts, which refers to Total Cash Receipts adjusted to remove cash receipts that are not expected to recur in the normal course of our operations. Management believes that Normalized Total Cash Receipts will assist readers in evaluating the period over period performance of the Trust's royalty portfolio since Normalized Total Cash Receipts only include cash receipts generated by royalties and other amounts payable pursuant to the terms of the Trust's royalty assets. There were no adjustments required to normalize cash receipts for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and months ended (thousands of US dollars) March 31, 2025 March 31, 2024 Total income 44,028 42,067 [-] Other interest income (298) (722) [-] Unrealized gain on marketable securities (1,535) — [+] Royalties receivable, beginning of period 62,362 64,082 [-] Royalties receivable, end of period (45,006) (45,470) [+] Financial royalty asset, beginning of period 57,527 — [-] Financial royalty asset, end of period (55,088) — [+] Acquired royalties receivable1 — 3,560 Total Cash Royalty Receipts, Royalty Cash Receipts and Normalized Cash Receipts 61,990 63,517 ______________________________________________ 1 Acquired royalties receivable represent the Trust's royalty entitlements prior to the completion of the royalty transactions they relate to. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin Management believes Adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful information about the Trust's operating cash flows as it eliminates the effects of other non-cash expenses and accruals and income and expenses that are not expected to recur, that have been recorded on the statement of net earnings (loss) and comprehensive earnings (loss). The Trust refers to EBITDA when reconciling its comprehensive earnings (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA but does not use EBITDA as a measure of its performance.
