Jorge Esponda
Good morning. Thanks for joining us today.
Fibra Danhos posted sound financial and operating results for the first quarter 2026. Fixed rent, an 8% growth explained by the full contribution of Cuautitlan and Palomas industrial projects, indexation of lease agreements and improved occupancy levels in our office portfolio.
Overage and parking revenues increased almost 13% and 18%, respectively, based on strong sales from our tenants and tariff adjustments in our properties. Consequently, total revenue during the quarter increased 9.4% year-over-year, while operating expenses did so by 7%, resulting in a 10% increase in net operating income and 11% on EBITDA with margin improvements.
AFFO per CBFI accounted for MXN 0.76, equivalent to MXN 1.2 billion and almost 16% high year-on-year. Distribution was determined at MXN 0.45 per CBFI, that represents a payout ratio of 59%.
GLA on our operating portfolio increased by 15% year-over-year. And overall occupancy level grew 220 basis points, reaching almost 92%.
Lease spread on 20,000 square meter renewal agreements on our operating portfolio was 4.3%. Our CapEx pipeline continues to gain momentum, particularly in Palomas and EdoMex III industrial projects that are due to deliver by year-end.
While Parque Oaxaca and Nizuc are making progress and running on schedule as well. Balance sheet remains with only 13.6% leverage.
During the quarter, Fitch ratified a AAA rating for Fibra Danhos CBFIs and our debt bond issuances. Fibra Danhos shareholders' meeting took place on March 27, with a general quorum of assistance of more than 80% and resulting on the approval of all the agenda items with a favorable vote of more than 95% on each of them.
Thanks, and we may now turn to the Q&A session.

[Operator Instructions] Our first question today comes from Igor Machado of Goldman Sachs.
Igor Machado
So the first one is on lease maturities. You have a significant amount of lease maturities coming due for retail portfolio, so 28% of total.
And your leasing spread is around 7% this quarter. So just want to better understand what could we expect the lease spreads going forward with the lease-up.
And also given the significance of the maturities...
Jorge Esponda
Something happens with -- we cannot understand well. Can you repeat the question?
Igor Machado
Yes, sure. Can you hear me well?
Jorge Esponda
We can hear you, it's distortion. I mean we did not hear you clearly.
Igor Machado
Can you hear me?
Jorge Esponda
Yes, that's better. I think you're closer now to the microphone.
Igor Machado
Yes. So the first question is on [ lease maturities ].
So you have a significant amount of maturities due this year for the retail portfolio. So I just want to understand why could we expect the lease spreads going forward with the lease-up?
And also given the significance of the maturities, if you see this is an opportunity to do a material change in your tenant book for the retail portfolio?
Elias Mizrahi
Igor, this is Elias Mizrahi. So the maturities for our retail portfolio, historically, we have a weighted average term of approximately 4 years.
So around 25% of our contracts expire every year, and we actually do renovations on a 3- to 5-year renewals at the most precisely to have these renovation windows, and that's where we can push rents up and have leasing spreads. So on retail, we continue to see lease spreads above inflation in general.
And I think that's the question, right?
Igor Machado
Yes.
Operator
Was there anything further, Igor?
Igor Machado
Sorry, if it's possible, I have another question here. Could you comment on why are you seeing the potential increase in construction costs given the conflict in the Middle East?
Elias Mizrahi
We haven't seen an impact in costs because of the war in the Middle East. Let me pass this to [indiscernible] to give you some further remarks.
Salvador Daniel Kabbaz Zaga
I mean we haven't still seen a significant change in prices. None of our contractors have let us know that we have to be prepared for it.
So we're not expecting a big change on the increases in cost of construction, at least for the moment.
Operator
Our next question today comes from Gordon Lee of BTG Pactual.
Gordon Lee
Two questions. I was wondering on the industrial side.
Now that, that segment is becoming more relevant for you, will you be looking at any sort of potential M&A opportunities? And I'm not thinking of Macquarie, but I'm thinking more of -- this is the expectation that there will be a pipeline through the maturation of [indiscernible] properties hitting the market.
Would you look to acquire properties? Or do you prefer to focus 100% on developing them?
And then the second question is just on Torre Virreyes, that's one of your sort of flagship office properties where we really haven't seen sort of improvements in occupancy in the last 2 or 3 quarters. So I was wondering whether you think that's still something that's just cyclical?
Or do you think there's something about the property that may require more work, repositioning, something of that nature?
Salvador Daniel Kabbaz Zaga
This is Salvador. I mean, talking about Torre Virreyes, it's 100% leased.
Gordon Lee
Sorry, I meant Toreo. I said Torre Virreyes, but I meant Toreo.
Sorry about that.
Salvador Daniel Kabbaz Zaga
Okay. I mean, Toreo, we've been working very hard.
It was hit by the pandemic and we lost some tenants. But we're seeing a gradually increase in occupancy, and we expect it to be even better in the next trimester.
So we feel comfortable with it. And we're going to see -- we believe we're going to see good numbers in the next years to come.
So as you know, the office segment is still just recuperating after the pandemic. But we've seen a lot more movement in clients and interest in spaces, especially in the last trimester.
I mean, I hope this -- we can -- we were able to fulfill into contract [ with ] expectation. But we're -- I mean, happy with it.
And in terms of industrial, of course, we are always open to new opportunities. As you know, we prefer to develop because in that way, we can actually get much higher yields with it.
But -- but if we find a good opportunity in the market, we'll take advantage of it.
Operator
And from JPMorgan, we have Felipe Barragan.
Felipe Barragan Sanchez
So we've seen a good uptick on the office occupancy, now coming close to 80%. I just want to get an update from what you guys commented last quarter.
If we could see perhaps you guys breaking above the 80% threshold that you guys have been struggling to recover.
Salvador Daniel Kabbaz Zaga
Yes. We are expecting this to grow.
I mean it's not an easy task. Office, it's much better, but it's not still, I mean, driving.
So we expect it to be a better number each trimester and to actually fill up our buildings in the next year, something like that.
Felipe Barragan Sanchez
Okay. And I have a second question real quick.
So last quarter, you said there was a softer consumer demand that wasn't extremely prominent. Could you guys give us an update on what you guys are seeing on the consumer environment for this quarter?
Salvador Daniel Kabbaz Zaga
I mean, we're seeing it to be basically just based on the line, not increasing, not decreasing. It's not a high consumer option, but we believe that things are getting much better, especially with the World Cup coming into Mexico.
We expect that -- as you know, our shopping malls are in Mexico City, so we expect this to contribute in a positive way to the portfolio. But the truth is that we're basically just flat online.
Operator
Next, we have Alan Macias of Bank of America.
Alan Macias
Just a question on land bank. If you can remind us your strategy of acquiring land in Mexico City for the industrial sector?
And what are you seeing there in terms of land prices? And perhaps has anything changed in terms of licensing and permits?
Salvador Daniel Kabbaz Zaga
I think we're on a good place on acquiring some land with licensing and permitting. We're working very hard on it.
We've been doing it in the past couple of years, and they're getting just mature to be almost ready to be developed. So we expect to give good notice in the next probably 6 months about it.
But we're going to continue into the industrial development. We feel comfortable with it.
I think we're doing a good job with it. And we are working very hard to basically just be able to -- in the next few months or 4 months or 2 trimesters able to give a good notice to the market on it.
Operator
[Operator Instructions] And we have no further questions at this time. Rodrigo, back over to you for any additional or closing comments.
Rodrigo Chavez

We are always available, and we'll see you on the next conference call. Thank you very much.
