The Announcement

Under the terms of the agreement, the joint venture would leverage GLP's expanding presence of over 33 million square meters of logistics facilities in China, and Brookfield's extensive expertise as a leading global owner, operator, and developer of renewable power assets. The Companies plan to follow the development opportunities on third party-owned rooftops across China, and would expand into other areas of cooperation in the future.

GLP viewed the announcement as a step for the Companies to leverage each other's strengths to further capitalize on their high-quality assets. Moreover, the Company plans to invest in infrastructure beyond its logistics platform to deliver better services to its customers and communities. Brookfield, on the other hand, viewed the agreement as an attractive opportunity to expand its footprint in China's rapidly growing renewables energy market.

GLP is currently the leader in building environment-friendly logistics facilities globally, according to Brookfield. In fact, in Japan, GLP is reportedly the largest solar power provider of rooftop panels on logistics facilities. Brookfield currently operates one of the largest, public pure-play renewable businesses globally. The Company's portfolio consists of hydroelectric, wind, solar, and storage facilities in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia, where the total installed capacity ranges over 16,000 megawatts.

Company Growth Prospects

Additionally, on March 21, 2018, Brookfield, along with LCM Partners, a European alternative credit investment manager, together announced that they had entered into a strategic partnership to grow LCM Partners' leading asset management and credit servicing business globally. Under the terms of the agreement, Brookfield would acquire a strategic interest in Link Financial Group of 25%, which, according to the Company, comprised both of LCM Partners and its sister companies which currently operate a loan servicing platform under the Link Financial brand, with the option to acquire another 24.9% over time.

Prior to the announcement, on February 15, 2018, Brookfield announced its full fiscal year 2017 results for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2017.
