INDUSTRIAL MARKET OUTLOOK
Q2 2015
Key Takeaways
>> The North American industrial market continued its torrid expansion
in Q2 2015 as vacancies declined by 20 basis points (bps) to 6.4%.
In the U.S., the vacancy rate fell for the 22nd straight quarter, down
20 bps to 6.8%. In Canada, the vacancy rate fell 7 basis points to
3.7%.
>> North American net absorption totaled 74.3 million SF (MSF), broken
out into 72.4 MSF for the U.S. and 1.9 MSF for Canada. This is the
highest level of industrial demand seen post-recession and is heavily
concentrated in bulk distribution space in a handful of markets.
>> Strong industrial space demand and tightening vacancies are
pushing up asking rents in most markets. The average asking rent for
warehouse buildings in the U.S. rose 1.6% over the previous quarter
to end at $5.23 PSF. However, in Canada, rents at C$7.99 PSF, are
down 1.4% from the prior quarter.
>> Some markets are seeing outsized increases in asking rents. Asking
rents for warehouse space were up significantly in Walnut Creek
(+29.6% year-over-year through 2Q), Birmingham (22.4%) and
Oakland (21.7%). Asking rents for bulk space were up in Denver
(26.5%), Greenville (20.7%) and San Francisco Peninsula (20.5%).
And flex/service asking rents were up strongly in San Francisco
Peninsula (28.4%), Miami (23.1%) and Stockton (22.2%).
>> The results of Colliers’ North American Q2 survey remained
optimistic. Of the 70 U.S. markets surveyed by Colliers, 57 forecast
positive industrial demand for the next three months. Of the 11
Canadian markets surveyed by Colliers, 6 forecast positive industrial
demand for the next three months.
>> Investors remain hungry for yield worldwide, and the safety that U.S.
denominated industrial assets provide is leading to a continued surge
in mega-deal activity. Last quarter saw ProLogis’ purchase of KTR
and GLC’s purchase of the Indcor portfolio. Currently in the works
is the acquisition of Industrial Income Trust by GLC, which would
make GLC the second-largest operator of U.S. warehouse properties.
In addition, the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority is teaming up with
Canadian PSP investments to purchase the 55 MSF Exeter Property
portfolio.

2 North American Research Report | Q2 2015 | Industrial Market Outlook | Colliers International
The North American industrial market is at a post-recession
high, recording the lowest levels of vacancy coupled with record
completions and record net absorption. In the U.S., this is leading
to upward pressure on asking warehouse rental rates, which have
increased 1.6% from the previous quarter and 5.2% year over year.
Still, some caution is warranted as this market strength is highly
concentrated. Moreover, 40% of the net absorption seen in 2015
and nearly half of the construction activity are taking place in only a
handful of markets: Southern California, Houston, Dallas-Ft. Worth,
Chicago and Atlanta. The economic drivers of these markets -
international trade and supply chain modernization - will have an
outsized effect on the North American aggregate numbers. Caution
is also warranted as recent financial market volatility point to rising
global economic risks that could weigh on future economic growth
in North America and ultimately slow industrial space demand.
Nonetheless, recent performance in the industrial sector has been
among the strongest this century and explains growing investor
interest in good industrial product.
Industrial Economic Indicators
For the United States, second quarter GDP numbers increased at
an annual rate of 3.7%. Gains were made in personal consumption,
housing construction and exports. For the United States the
manufacturing sector continues to expand, with the Purchasing
Managers Index (PMI) recording 52.7 in July, the 31st consecutive
month of growth.
For Canada, the latest results indicate a decline in GDP and the Bank
of Canada has lowered interest rates in an effort to bolster lending.
The RBC Canadian Manufacturing PMI registered 50.8 in July, a
marginal upturn in the manufacturing sector.
Job growth has been positive in the manufacturing sector, which
has added 522,000 jobs (1.4%) since the second quarter of 2014.
U.S. manufacturing has become increasingly attractive due to
cheaper domestic energy and rising labor costs overseas. For many
companies the decision to outsource has added complexity, when
the shrinking margin on foreign labor, product quality, intellectual
property rights and a long distance supply chain are factored in.
Overall, however, manufacturing employment is still down from
before the recession, but the recent job growth has been a welcome
turnaround for the economy – and a driver for U.S. industrial
demand.
One negative indicator is the 1.0% year-over-year decrease in total
railcar traffic according to the American Association of Railroads,
although intermodal traffic has increased by 2.5% year-over-year. A
major reason for the decline in railroad traffic has been decreased
demand for petroleum, metallic ores and coal.
Several complex issues are at play that impact the industrial
landscape in the near and longer term. In the short term, the Chinese
currency was devalued by more than 4% in late August, partly in
response to lagging exports. This was the sharpest drop in the Yuan
since 1994 and will likely boost imports from China in the short
term while also limiting exports to China. Industries likely to suffer
as a result include agricultural products, electronic equipment,
machines and aircraft – which can ultimately hit warehouse demand,
particularly near port cities. The slowdown in China and elsewhere
in emerging markets is another growing risk to U.S. expansion and
continued strength in the industrial property sector.
For the longer term, the prolonged collapse in the commodity market
is likely to persist for some time and almost certainly into 2016,
meaning pain for those areas whose economies depend on natural
resources such as oil, coal or iron. This is an increased chance of
recession for Canada and Australia among others, whose economies

depend heavily on resource extraction. Those areas in the United States
that depend heavily on oil production will also be impacted negatively.
Vacancy
Driven by robust absorption in the top U.S. markets, the North American
vacancy rate fell by 20 bps to 6.4% in Q2. The decline was broad-based,
as the U.S. vacancy rate dropped 20 bps to 6.8%, while the vacancy rate
in Canada dropped 7 bps to 3.7%.
Vacancy rates declined in each U.S. region, led by the South, which
dropped 24 bps to 7.6%. There is a wide disparity in rates among the
regions as of the first quarter. The West remained the lowest at 5.0%,
trailed by the Midwest (6.6%) and the South (7.6%) while vacancies
remained relatively high in the Northeast (8.6%). Western markets
ranked among the lowest vacancy rates include Los Angeles (1.8%),
Honolulu (2.0%), San Francisco Peninsula (2.7%) and Orange County
(3.1%).
Savannah was the best performer in the second quarter with the
vacancy rate dropping by 150 bps to 3.7%. Other markets with sharp
drops in vacancy rates were Dayton (-130 bps to 9.1%) and Austin
(-120 bps to 7.1%). On the other end of the spectrum, markets with the
largest increases were Calgary (+150 bps to 5.8%), Bakersfield (+140
bps to 4.8%) and Stockton (+110 bps to 8.4%). Calgary is the epicenter
of Canadian oil and gas extraction, while Bakersfield and Stockton are
heavily reliant on agricultural products hurt by a prolonged drought in
California.

Absorption
Net absorption was strong in Q2 at 74.3 MSF, broken out into 72.4
MSF in the U.S. but only 1.9 MSF in Canada. We expect positive
absorption to continue this year in the vast majority of markets.
In fact, of the 82 markets in North America, we forecast negative
absorption in only two: Calgary and Boston.
U.S. Q2 absorption was concentrated in a handful of markets such
as the Los Angeles – Inland Empire market, which saw absorption
of 5.3 MSF, followed by Houston (3.8 MSF), Atlanta (3.7 MSF),
Northern New Jersey (3.5 MSF) Los Angeles (3.5 MSF) and
Dallas-Ft. Worth (3.0 MSF). Top Canadian markets for absorption
were Vancouver (1.8 MSF) and Toronto (1.7 MSF).

5 North American Research Report | Q2 2015 | Industrial Market Outlook | Colliers International
Construction Activity
Rising industrial demand is pushing new supply to pre-recession
totals. Some 54 MSF of space came online in North America
in Q2, including 50.3 MSF in the U.S. and 3.9 MSF in Canada.
The quarterly volume of construction activity is at the highest
level since Q4 2007, with no letup in sight. 177.6 MSF is under
construction in North America, including 156.5 MSF in the U.S.
and 21.1 MSF in Canada. Markets with the most new supply in
the second quarter were Los Angeles – Inland Empire (6.5 MSF),
Chicago (5.6 MSF) and Atlanta (3.6 MSF). In each of those
markets virtually all of the new supply was in modern distribution
centers which have the higher ceilings, larger truck courts, ESFR
sprinklers and other improvements that are needed by logistics
and e-retailer tenants.
A large and growing portion of the new supply is speculative –
56% in the United States and over 70% in Canada – as developers
and lenders become more comfortable with taking on leasing
risk for new product. So far that confidence has been justified
as supply and demand have been in balance with enough tenant
demand to fill the projected development pipeline.
Transaction Activity
Investor demand for U.S. industrial real estate remains high and
will likely increase. For the first half of 2015, investment volume
is up 70% from the previous year on investment volumes of $37
billion. Of this, roughly 14.3 billion (38%) have been from foreign
direct investment inflows, primarily focused in Chicago ($1.1
billion), New Jersey ($1 billion) and Los Angeles ($1 billion).
Investors are drawn to the industrial sector’s relatively low
volatility compared to office or retail investments. Institutions
looking in this sector are willing to pay a premium for portfolios in
order to allocate large chunks of capital.
In today’s low yield environment, the industrial sector continues
to post the highest average cap rates for any commercial property
type, averaging nationwide at 6.9%. This is down 10 bps from the
7.0% reported in the previous quarter and down 140 bps since
2010.
Investors will look keenly to what the Federal Reserve Bank will
or will not do in the fall and the resulting impact on cap rates.
Investors are likely to pull money out of emerging markets in
anticipation of higher returns on U.S. backed assets; paradoxically
we may see investment rise if rates increase.

Conclusion and Outlook
The industrial sector is posting record absorption and rental rate
increases with mixed macro-economic signals. Domestically,
the U.S. is in fine shape, though risks from abroad are rising,
particularly in China.
The rising U.S. dollar is making exports less competitive and
the prolonged commodity bust for oil, gas and other minerals
is ongoing. This means that markets reliant on oil and gas
extraction or agricultural products are likely to remain subdued. By
contrast, markets along the path of goods movement and growing
population centers with robust housing demand are seeing record
development and industrial demand.

Q2 2105 North American Industrial Highligts

  • 1. North American Research Report INDUSTRIAL MARKET OUTLOOK Q2 2015 Key Takeaways >> The North American industrial market continued its torrid expansion in Q2 2015 as vacancies declined by 20 basis points (bps) to 6.4%. In the U.S., the vacancy rate fell for the 22nd straight quarter, down 20 bps to 6.8%. In Canada, the vacancy rate fell 7 basis points to 3.7%. >> North American net absorption totaled 74.3 million SF (MSF), broken out into 72.4 MSF for the U.S. and 1.9 MSF for Canada. This is the highest level of industrial demand seen post-recession and is heavily concentrated in bulk distribution space in a handful of markets. >> Strong industrial space demand and tightening vacancies are pushing up asking rents in most markets. The average asking rent for warehouse buildings in the U.S. rose 1.6% over the previous quarter to end at $5.23 PSF. However, in Canada, rents at C$7.99 PSF, are down 1.4% from the prior quarter. >> Some markets are seeing outsized increases in asking rents. Asking rents for warehouse space were up significantly in Walnut Creek (+29.6% year-over-year through 2Q), Birmingham (22.4%) and Oakland (21.7%). Asking rents for bulk space were up in Denver (26.5%), Greenville (20.7%) and San Francisco Peninsula (20.5%). And flex/service asking rents were up strongly in San Francisco Peninsula (28.4%), Miami (23.1%) and Stockton (22.2%). >> The results of Colliers’ North American Q2 survey remained optimistic. Of the 70 U.S. markets surveyed by Colliers, 57 forecast positive industrial demand for the next three months. Of the 11 Canadian markets surveyed by Colliers, 6 forecast positive industrial demand for the next three months. >> Investors remain hungry for yield worldwide, and the safety that U.S. denominated industrial assets provide is leading to a continued surge in mega-deal activity. Last quarter saw ProLogis’ purchase of KTR and GLC’s purchase of the Indcor portfolio. Currently in the works is the acquisition of Industrial Income Trust by GLC, which would make GLC the second-largest operator of U.S. warehouse properties. In addition, the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority is teaming up with Canadian PSP investments to purchase the 55 MSF Exeter Property portfolio.

In the U.S., this is leading to upward pressure on asking warehouse rental rates, which have increased 1.6% from the previous quarter and 5.2% year over year. Still, some caution is warranted as this market strength is highly concentrated. Moreover, 40% of the net absorption seen in 2015 and nearly half of the construction activity are taking place in only a handful of markets: Southern California, Houston, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Chicago and Atlanta. The economic drivers of these markets - international trade and supply chain modernization - will have an outsized effect on the North American aggregate numbers. Caution is also warranted as recent financial market volatility point to rising global economic risks that could weigh on future economic growth in North America and ultimately slow industrial space demand. Nonetheless, recent performance in the industrial sector has been among the strongest this century and explains growing investor interest in good industrial product. Industrial Economic Indicators For the United States, second quarter GDP numbers increased at an annual rate of 3.7%. Gains were made in personal consumption, housing construction and exports. For the United States the manufacturing sector continues to expand, with the Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) recording 52.7 in July, the 31st consecutive month of growth. For Canada, the latest results indicate a decline in GDP and the Bank of Canada has lowered interest rates in an effort to bolster lending. The RBC Canadian Manufacturing PMI registered 50.8 in July, a marginal upturn in the manufacturing sector. Job growth has been positive in the manufacturing sector, which has added 522,000 jobs (1.4%) since the second quarter of 2014. U.S. manufacturing has become increasingly attractive due to cheaper domestic energy and rising labor costs overseas. For many companies the decision to outsource has added complexity, when the shrinking margin on foreign labor, product quality, intellectual property rights and a long distance supply chain are factored in. Overall, however, manufacturing employment is still down from before the recession, but the recent job growth has been a welcome turnaround for the economy – and a driver for U.S. industrial demand. One negative indicator is the 1.0% year-over-year decrease in total railcar traffic according to the American Association of Railroads, although intermodal traffic has increased by 2.5% year-over-year. A major reason for the decline in railroad traffic has been decreased demand for petroleum, metallic ores and coal. Several complex issues are at play that impact the industrial landscape in the near and longer term. In the short term, the Chinese currency was devalued by more than 4% in late August, partly in response to lagging exports. This was the sharpest drop in the Yuan since 1994 and will likely boost imports from China in the short term while also limiting exports to China. Industries likely to suffer as a result include agricultural products, electronic equipment, machines and aircraft – which can ultimately hit warehouse demand, particularly near port cities. The slowdown in China and elsewhere in emerging markets is another growing risk to U.S. expansion and continued strength in the industrial property sector. For the longer term, the prolonged collapse in the commodity market is likely to persist for some time and almost certainly into 2016, meaning pain for those areas whose economies depend on natural resources such as oil, coal or iron. This is an increased chance of recession for Canada and Australia among others, whose economies Sources: BEA, ISM, AAR North American Industrial Vacancy, Inventory & Absorption Q2 2015 | NA

Those areas in the United States that depend heavily on oil production will also be impacted negatively. Vacancy Driven by robust absorption in the top U.S. markets, the North American vacancy rate fell by 20 bps to 6.4% in Q2. The decline was broad-based, as the U.S. vacancy rate dropped 20 bps to 6.8%, while the vacancy rate in Canada dropped 7 bps to 3.7%. Vacancy rates declined in each U.S. region, led by the South, which dropped 24 bps to 7.6%. There is a wide disparity in rates among the regions as of the first quarter. The West remained the lowest at 5.0%, trailed by the Midwest (6.6%) and the South (7.6%) while vacancies remained relatively high in the Northeast (8.6%). Western markets ranked among the lowest vacancy rates include Los Angeles (1.8%), Honolulu (2.0%), San Francisco Peninsula (2.7%) and Orange County (3.1%). Savannah was the best performer in the second quarter with the vacancy rate dropping by 150 bps to 3.7%. Other markets with sharp drops in vacancy rates were Dayton (-130 bps to 9.1%) and Austin (-120 bps to 7.1%). On the other end of the spectrum, markets with the largest increases were Calgary (+150 bps to 5.8%), Bakersfield (+140 bps to 4.8%) and Stockton (+110 bps to 8.4%). Calgary is the epicenter of Canadian oil and gas extraction, while Bakersfield and Stockton are heavily reliant on agricultural products hurt by a prolonged drought in California.

Worth (3.0 MSF). Top Canadian markets for absorption were Vancouver (1.8 MSF) and Toronto (1.7 MSF). 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Midwest Northeast South West Canada U.S. N.A.

  • 5. 5 North American Research Report | Q2 2015 | Industrial Market Outlook | Colliers International Construction Activity Rising industrial demand is pushing new supply to pre-recession totals. Some 54 MSF of space came online in North America in Q2, including 50.3 MSF in the U.S. and 3.9 MSF in Canada. The quarterly volume of construction activity is at the highest level since Q4 2007, with no letup in sight. 177.6 MSF is under construction in North America, including 156.5 MSF in the U.S. and 21.1 MSF in Canada. Markets with the most new supply in the second quarter were Los Angeles – Inland Empire (6.5 MSF), Chicago (5.6 MSF) and Atlanta (3.6 MSF). In each of those markets virtually all of the new supply was in modern distribution centers which have the higher ceilings, larger truck courts, ESFR sprinklers and other improvements that are needed by logistics and e-retailer tenants. A large and growing portion of the new supply is speculative – 56% in the United States and over 70% in Canada – as developers and lenders become more comfortable with taking on leasing risk for new product. So far that confidence has been justified as supply and demand have been in balance with enough tenant demand to fill the projected development pipeline. Transaction Activity Investor demand for U.S. industrial real estate remains high and will likely increase. For the first half of 2015, investment volume is up 70% from the previous year on investment volumes of $37 billion. Of this, roughly 14.3 billion (38%) have been from foreign direct investment inflows, primarily focused in Chicago ($1.1 billion), New Jersey ($1 billion) and Los Angeles ($1 billion). Investors are drawn to the industrial sector’s relatively low volatility compared to office or retail investments. Institutions looking in this sector are willing to pay a premium for portfolios in order to allocate large chunks of capital. In today’s low yield environment, the industrial sector continues to post the highest average cap rates for any commercial property type, averaging nationwide at 6.9%. This is down 10 bps from the 7.0% reported in the previous quarter and down 140 bps since 2010. Investors will look keenly to what the Federal Reserve Bank will or will not do in the fall and the resulting impact on cap rates. Investors are likely to pull money out of emerging markets in anticipation of higher returns on U.S. backed assets; paradoxically we may see investment rise if rates increase.

  • 6. 6 North American Research Report | Q2 2015 | Industrial Market Outlook | Colliers International Conclusion and Outlook The industrial sector is posting record absorption and rental rate increases with mixed macro-economic signals. Domestically, the U.S. is in fine shape, though risks from abroad are rising, particularly in China. The rising U.S. dollar is making exports less competitive and the prolonged commodity bust for oil, gas and other minerals is ongoing. This means that markets reliant on oil and gas extraction or agricultural products are likely to remain subdued. By contrast, markets along the path of goods movement and growing population centers with robust housing demand are seeing record development and industrial demand.
