Non-IFRS Measures
This news release includes references to "Adjusted EBITDA", and
"Adjusted Operating Expense", which are non-International Financial
Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) financial measures. Non-IFRS
measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a
standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and are therefore unlikely
to be comparable to similar measures presented by other
companies.
Adjusted EBITDA is used as an alternative to net income by
removing major non-cash items, such as depreciation, amortization,
interest, stock-based compensation, current and deferred income tax
expenses and other items management considers unique and/or
non-operating in nature.
Adjusted Operating Expense is used as an alternative to
operating expenses by removing major non-cash items such as
stock-based compensation, depreciation, and other unique or
non-cash expenses, while retaining ongoing fixed operating expenses
and excluding variable cash expenses associated with revenue
share.
Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Operating Expense have no direct
comparable IFRS financial measures. The Company has used or
included these non-IFRS measures solely to provide investors with
added insight into Real’s financial performance. Readers are
cautioned that such non-IFRS measures may not be appropriate for
any other purpose. Non-IFRS measures should not be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared
in accordance with IFRS. Our Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to the
most comparable IFRS measure for the three months and six months
ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and is presented in the table below
labeled Reconciliation of Total Comprehensive Loss Attributable to
Owners of the Company to Adjusted EBITDA. Our Adjusted Operating
Expense reconciled to the most comparable IFRS measure is presented
for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and on a quarterly basis
for the prior two fiscal years in the table below labeled
Reconciliation of Operating Expense to Adjusted Operating
Expense.

the meaning of applicable Canadian securities laws. Forward-looking
information is often, but not always, identified by the use of
words such as “seek”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “plan”, “estimate”,
“expect”, “likely” and “intend” and statements that an event or
result “may”, “will”, “should”, “could” or “might” occur or be
achieved and other similar expressions. These statements reflect
management’s current beliefs and are based on information currently
available to management as at the date hereof. Forward-looking
information in this press release includes, without limiting the
foregoing, information relating to Real’s expectation regarding
increasing the number of agents, revenue growth and profitability
and the business and strategic plans of Real.
Forward-looking information is based on assumptions that may
prove to be incorrect, including but not limited to Real’s business
objectives, expected growth, results of operations, performance,
business projects and opportunities and financial results. Real
considers these assumptions to be reasonable in the circumstances.
However, forward-looking information is subject to known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause
actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially
from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking information.
Important factors that could cause such differences include, but
are not limited to, slowdowns in real estate markets, economic and
industry downturns, Real’s ability to attract new agents and retain
current agents and those risk factors discussed under the heading
“Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Information Form dated March
14, 2024, and “Risks and Uncertainties” in the Company’s Quarterly
Management’s Discussion and Analysis for the period ended June 30,
2024, copies of which are available under the Company’s SEDAR+
profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
These factors should be carefully considered and readers should
not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements.
Although the forward-looking statements contained in this press
release are based upon what management believes to be reasonable
assumptions, Real cannot assure readers that actual results will be
consistent with these forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this press
release, and Real assumes no obligation to update or revise them to
reflect new events or circumstances, except as required by law.
